Even in this period of perpetual war between men across the world - at no time in history did the contest for world domination reach as dangerous a moment as it did during the nuclear arms race of the Cold War.
Male leaders in what was then The USSR - and America, were trying to outdo one another in amassing the most threatening pile of nuclear weapons capable of the greatest mass death and planetary destruction.
In 1980, at the height of the arms race, Ann Pettitt was a young mother and vegetable farmer in rural Wales and found herself in much closer proximity to the nuclear threat than most - and in this episode Ann is going to tell the story of how she became a leader of the largest all-women peace action of all time - The Greenham Women's Peace Camp - which lasted 20 years and helped end the Cold War.
