Jude Dobson: The Last Secret Agent - The Sunday Session with Francesca Rudkin

In 1944, Phyllis 'Pippa' Latour parachuted into Nazi occupied Normandy as an undercover agent. 

Had she been discovered, she would have been shot instantly - however Pippa made it out. In fact, she was one of the last female special operations agents to get out of France Alive. 

After the war, Pippa ended up here in New Zealand, but never told a soul, not even her husband or children, about her mission during the war. 

Before she died last year, she told her fill story to Jude Dobson.
