“I absolutely loved the first few episodes as it provided a bit of a look into people's lives in the past. But I've found that the latest episodes are just long, drawn out adverts without the interesting stories it started with.”

“The content is really interesting delivered in a gentle and lyrical way, but each week the narrator seems to be getting further away from the microphone which is quite frustrating!”

“Ok, the subject matter is diverse, but it's interesting enough and Tony Robinson is as good as he always is. Baldrick discusses Luke Skywalker, how can that be bad?!”

“I stumbled on this podcast while working on Ancestry yesterday, and already have listened to 4 of the 5 episodes. Well written, produced and of course read - interesting stories chosen, and I very much look forward to more.
While all were very good, I think I liked Episode 5, where Sir Tony...”Read full review »

Would love a fleshed out introduction to episodes presenting the inquiry into these characters of history. Keep them coming! There is great potential for an...”Read full review »

“The stories in this podcast are great snippets of history that you probably have never heard and the British charm of Sir Tony Robinson make them that much more enjoyable to listen to. If you like quick bits of interesting history than this is a podcast you'll enjoy.”

“I love listening to it's about time, not only are the stories told beautifully but they are short episodes and so you are not flooded with so much information at once. I also enjoy how you do not necessarily need to know the original story as a brief version is told within the podcast. Definitely...”Read full review »

“Three stars, one for each of the first two or three podcasts.
Starts really well for the first few episodes, although it's a bit random in its subject matter. By episode five it is a straight advert for a DNA analysis that comes out with the shock news that most people descended from Anglo...”Read full review »

“I have listened to a couple of these. Really great. I hope they keep making more. Interesting stories and great production. Its tied to Ancestry.com somehow- would actually like to hear more how the stories relate to data available on ancestry maybe?”

“Three very different episodes, the first being the most interesting. The episode on Chaplin was a bit of a documentary and lost my interest well before the end. The Pankhurst story had a mystery to be solved and new information from Australia, which helped things move along. But by far the most...”Read full review »
