Prunella Scales and Anna Massey in Against All Natural
Instincts by JOAN LOCK
' When the women patrols and Women Police Service began listening to cases in court - as part of their training - the magistrate was furious. He said it was against all natural instincts and they were " suffering from some sort of moral obliquity" - whatever that was.'
November 1978 is the 60th anniversary of the establishment of the Metropolitan Women Police. In this play, the author-herself an ex-wpc - tells the story of the personality clashes between the leaders of rival groups struggling for recognition during their voluntary efforts throughout the First World War.
