Rugby
Who says heavy can’t be funny? A look at unladylike sports and those who do them, fully unpacking muscularity v femininity.
Strength can look like a lot of things and here comedian Jessica Fostekew digs into some of the most unladylike sports going.
In this episode, Jess tries rugby, getting lifted into the air like a toddler in a playground by one England legend - Vicky Fleetwood - and learning from another - Maggie Alphonsi - about the history and future of the women's game.
We also find out which is more manly - Roses or Tulips - and how to dodge dog-doo on the training pitch.
Written and Performed by Jessica Fostekew.
