Breakthroughs and Backlash

In the final episode, Kirsty Wark explores the devolution era and discovers what happens when women take the lead and seize control of the megaphone – in politics, in communities and in the workplace. During these years, there have been many breakthroughs to celebrate, some of which Kirsty discusses when meeting our first female first minister, Nicola Sturgeon.
