'What does every good spy parachuting into enemy territory need to evade capture? A handgun, a nightie, lipstick and a satin cushion of course!

That’s what secret agent Nancy Wake had in her back pack when she jumped out of a plane during the Second World War to fight the enemy.

They nicknamed her the “white mouse’’ because she was so hard to catch. Nancy helped many people escape the Nazi’s evil clutches and cheated death on more than one occasion.

Narrated by singer, actor and producer Justine Clarke.'
