Episode 7 - Casanova’s Charter

This penultimate episode explores how the Married Women’s Association and Edith Summerskill were powerful forces in delaying the enactment of divorce reform in 1969. By blocking the Divorce Reform Act's passage, it was possible for the association to persuade those in power to redefine family law proposals in feminist terms.
