I hope they feature great-great-granny’s trip to South Africa on the last voyage of the Lady Kennaway. There I was thinking it was a boatload of Irish women (granny was 16, but lied about her age) taken down there as servants and military wives. No, apparently, it was really about gender relations under colonialism.
