We talk Agent Carter today, a recent TV spin-off of Captain America that has made waves for making feminist science fiction possible in a commercial setting. Spies, explosions and fabulous hats combine as Peggie Carter saves the world repeatedly while struggling to overcome the glass ceiling in espionage. What happens when science fiction is set in the past? And are spies likely to spend their time blowing quite as much stuff up? Join us as Matt and Alex don fake moustaches and meet two of Aberystwyth’s intelligence specialists at an undisclosed location.
