001 - 1970 Miss World Fiasco

Katie Charlwood
About this episode

The 1970 Miss World Pageant is a historic event that you've probably never heard of. On November 20th 1970, worlds collided with rigging accusations, bombs, thinly-veiled racism and the second wave of feminism, all topped off with a sparkly tiara.
