Ep 95 - Elephant & Castle - the Forty Elephants, a study in glamorous violence.

Women dressed in furs and dripping with diamonds arrive...and then you're in trouble. This week we look at the Forty Elephants, a group of women who enjoyed luxury and decadence, but who were not all that they seemed. This group was around from the 1870s for nearly 100 years, and what they got up to would make your hair curl - much like Maggie 'Babyface' Hughes, whose curly hair and small stature made her seem adorable and harmless. SPOILER - don't make that mistake!
