Comics highlight women's history in Museum Of London videos
The Museum of London has recruited five comedians to make a series of videos about the role of women in the capital’s history.
Samantha Baines, Jenny Bede, Jen Ives, Thanyia Moore and Leila Navabi have each created a short piece inspired by a different item in the museum’s collections.
Moore is first with a monologue about female bus conductors, released today to coincide with International Women’s Day.
She was inspired by a photograph from the mid-1970s – the first time London Transport officially employed women as bus drivers.
