Full Episode description

Not so long ago girls weren’t allowed to swim in the same pool as boys let alone compete in the Olympics. Girls weren’t even taught how to swim freestyle! Best friends Fanny Durack and Mina Wylie weren’t standing for it. They were great swimmers and wanted the chance to swim for Australia. 

Sports fans agreed and took to the streets to protest until finally the rules were changed, and Fanny and Mina competed at the 1912 Olympic Games in Sweden.

Narrated by the fiercest of the fierce Turia Pitt.
