Voyage of the Courtesans
Season 5 Episode 3 | 55m 18s
In 1789, more than 200 female thieves, prostitutes and con-artists were rounded up from London's prisons and shipped off to an Australian penal colony aboard the leaky vessel, Lady Juliana. But once aboard, the women turned banishment into opportunity, transforming their ship into a floating brothel on a journey that ended with the women as the founding mothers of Australia.
