'Missus Burton'
Ursula Burton was married to a man who fought in the spanish civil war. The authorities suspected both of them of being communist sympathizers. One m i five officer, however, had grown suspicious that only a woman would have been able to see through ursula's disguise. Millicent baggett knew more about communest networks in britain than any other intelligence officer. But she and her colleagues were constantly ignored by her male colleagues. It is all so chilling when you look back and think just how duped they were really.
