Hello, I am Lucy Hicks Beach, and I want to find out how people of marginalised genders have shaped the people we are and the world we live in. To do this, I am talking to some of the most interesting people around about the women and non-binary people who have shaped them.
Each guest picks an influential figure from one of five categories: Someone they know personally, someone they've never met, someone who is no longer alive, a childhood or teenage icon and a fictional character.
Ally and Helena Shilson have composed the celestial tunes throughout!
