Woman's Hour hosts a fascinating discussion on London's Statues of Women with Juliet Rix and Joy Battick

August 22, 2025 Graham Coster

Woman’s Hour on 25 July included a long and compelling discussion on London’s Statues of Women. Presenter Nuala McGovern’s guests included Juliet Rix, the author, and Joy Battick, unique in being the only living woman in London, as well as woman of colour, to have two statues of herself in the capital, facing each other on opposite platforms on Brixton railway station.
