As GCHQ starts advertising for spies on the Mumsnet website, Stephanie Merritt (better known by her nom de plume S. J. Parris) celebrates the history of the female spy in fiction alongside real life examples including Melita Norwood, an apparently respectable pensioner living in Bexleyheath, known as 'the spy who came in form the co-op'.

First broadcast on Open Book, 12 June 2016.
