Echoes by Henry Naylor
Echoes tells the story of two British women, born 175 years apart. One, a schoolgirl jihadi; the other, a Victorian blue-stocking. Both travel to the East to build Empires; both meet tragedy in blood-soaked lands. A brutal tale of colonialism and the rhyme of history. A timely drama written by lead Spitting Image writer Henry Naylor which received eleven 4 or 5-star reviews in its debut season.
