An article on BBC breakfast this morning told us that it's the anniversary of her execution.
I didn't know her body was brought to Norwich by train.
I did think it patronising of the reporter to say that not many people other than the nursing community or historians would know who she was.
I learnt about her at school, I'm sure you did too ?

I think there was a recent newspaper article saying she was a spy!

There is a Radio 4 programme available on listen again about the spy theory.
