If you’re a fan of witty banter, good old fashioned British gossip with a slice of history….this one is for you. We save these podcasts like you would the good chocolates for guests, except we save it for long car journeys when the kids are asleep in the back. The back and forth between the hosts...Read full review »

This is a great podcast when it comes to information, but Matt’s silly asides ruined it for me.

I look forward to these, very entertaining.

Would be sooooo much better without the annoying interjections.

I love this podcast. Interesting and funny.
Tidy Painter via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/14/24
I love the dramatisation and the dynamic between Alice and Matt. Very detailed and the delivery is excellent it’s both serious and humorous without taking from the seriousness of the story.

A welcome relief from the silly giggling girls who host most of these podcasts. Well researched and informative.
Amlash63 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/03/24
One of my favourite podcasts! And I’m so happy Matt is back.
GeeFletcher via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/01/24
I generally love this show. My only complaint is the they expound the notion that England = Great Britain. The final episode on Gaza was shocking for it. The comment that they just need to hear Three Lions and the Union Flag comes out - what! The Union Flag is not the English flag.

“Absolutely riveting.”

I absolutely love this podcast. It’s one of my favourites. Especially the latest series staring the Gallagher brothers. Thank you x

I LOVE this podcast! Have listened to all the seasons and even when the topic isn’t a fave for me, I listen, laugh, and learn because Matt and Alice have a comedic chemistry that cracks me up and keeps me engaged!! Your guest hosts were fun, but there is nothing like the Alice and Matt show!...Read full review »

I get excited the moment I hear the music, I’m obsessed! Alice and Matt obviously have a genuine friendship and bounce off each other so well. The stories are well researched and the storytelling is superb. Particularly love the accents they both do. So glad Matt is back!

Welcome back. Alice & Matt reunited!!😊
Cavendish 2020 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/22/24
Alice is always great, and the super-subs were good too, but it’s lovely to have the dynamic duo back at the top where they belong. Welcome back Matt. Hope we have many more salacious sagas for you both to tell.
Pod88star via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/21/24
The stories are great and well told. However I found the frequent conversational interruptions by the hosts to be distracting and unnecessary. In the end I had to stop listening, hopefully future episodes will just narrate the stories as some are really interesting.
jazza70 via Apple Podcasts · New Zealand · 03/16/24
Making continuous jokes about someone’s death is in poor taste, not everything is a joke.
Kwekwayel via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/16/24
I have loved your show from the very beginning… but I really do miss Matt….😢 Welcome back Matt!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🤦🏻‍♀️

I listen ad-free on Amazon-prime but can’t work out how to review the podcast there! Absolutely love this show - Alice is awesome and it’s just so fabulous to have the amazing Matt back on deck. Best wishes from Canberra, Australia 🇦🇺

I have been away for a bit and come back to a few seasons to catch up on. Was buzzing to see a krays season, until I started listening! Please get rid of the bloke, he's the least funny person I've ever heard and properly ruined the season. Can't stand himRead full review »
l.u.k.e1 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/14/24
Despite mentioning the MC’s homophobia, the damage done to her family, to queer people, to women, to sexual safety is not explored by the hosts. The need to challenge and change gender and intimate society from a deeply conservative christian position to one of progressive values is not explored....Read full review »

I LOVE this show so much, but most of all because I love Alice and Matt. And while a few of the guest hosts did a good job (some of them weren’t as good)- NO ONE is as good as Matt and I was SOOOO thrilled to see the newest episode drop today so I could enjoy having our favorite duo back...Read full review »

WOW! The interview with the Kray’s barrister was fantastic. Could have listened for another couple of hours. Love that this podcast seeks out those connected to the story who can give real insights - shows that the way the story is presented is based on accurate research. Great interviewing by...Read full review »

Matt is back 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾Matt and Alice are such hilarious, comedic and extremely talented storytellers. Their choice of material to cover is fabulous. The witty, self deprecating and tongue in cheek jibes to each other make the show. Masterclass. Total mic drop I run to my phone every Wednesday....Read full review »

Doobeedi via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 03/13/24
I adore Alice and Matt and can’t wait to hear Matt’s giggle back! It’s just the funniest and most interesting podcast focusing on such fascinating topics. My favourites are Phone Hacking, Millionaire and Canoe Con (I wasn’t originally interested in this story that I assumed was about canoeing...Read full review »

Can’t put this down. 5 seasons in already.
Anders18 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/28/24
The stories are compelling, the narrative is so well written and the hosts (and the guest hosts) have fantastic rapport and banter. This American loves to get away from the mess of our own scandals and enjoy the scandals from Britain.
iTuneellena via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/28/24
Hugh was brilliant in the first episode, naturally funny and perfect company for Alice. Such a great podcast series, the humour is wonderfully fresh. Matt is missed of course, and we wish him a speedy recovery x
Old Normal via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/23/24
Your guests have been fantastic good comic lilt on somethings that do make us think? How what ??Matt you’re missed big time can’t wait till you’re back with Alice Full credit to all taking part in your amazing funny podcast x x x

Matt’s absence has only proved what a key player he is in this podcast. Only the legend Hugh Dennis has come close to filling the void. Hats off to Alice for carrying the replacements so far. Looking forward to Matt’s return and the indomitable duo being back together. British Scandal is always...Read full review »

Explores the biggest Scandals and episodes in our history with a humorous twist.
Kinrao via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/20/24
For all those questioning Matt’s absence, he’s been having treatment for cancer - which he’s spoken publicly about. He’s not left the podcast. Maybe a little less hostility to all those hosts who have kindly jumped in to join Alice and keep the podcast going until Matt is well enough to rejoin...Read full review »

I emigrated to Melbourne many years ago , many of the podcasts you do are events I remember when younger living in uk but didn’t know the full stories ,Thankyou Matt and Alice and I love your banter it helps break up some of the serious and at times sad parts of the events .
Wotton girl via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 02/18/24
I do enjoy the two hosts and their banter during the retelling of the Canoe story. They keep my interest. Only one irritating issue…haha… please pronounce year numbers correctly, such as ‘two thousand two’ not as a decimal number such as ‘two thousand AND two’.
Mrs Skinny Skip via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/17/24
I already a big fan of Wondery. I love my American Scandal but British Scandal take it to a whole new level. I like the interaction between the two lead podcast hosts and their interactions between each other. I highly recommended. It sure make me look at history in a different light. Thanks!
Cheney 63 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/15/24
It’s unfortunate there are SO MANY ADS!! I started losing track of the story because just as you return from an ad, you’re back into another one a minute later! Nope
MisMel83 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 02/14/24
I do enjoy this podcast but sometimes you do have to question how accurate it is. There’s always a disclaimer saying they’ve made up dialogue, which is to be expected, there’d be no programme without a healthy dollop of artistic license. The problem I have is in the final episode of each season...Read full review »
No Mr Peter via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/11/24
It makes it impossible to follow the story because of all the commercials. There are so many ads of other podcasts going on that elaborate on other stories for extended periods that you don’t know what you’re listening to! You completely lose track of the actual story you wanted to listen to...Read full review »

I am not sure what 02/05 means to you but to me it is Feb. 5th. I guess it could be 2025? Please release the third episode.
