The Belgrano Diary
The sinking of the General Belgrano was the bloodiest and most controversial military action of the Falklands War. This is the story of government cover-ups and conspiracies; of whistleblowers, crusading politicians and journalists fighting for the story. And caught in the middle of it all, a young officer whose account of what happened contradicted Margaret Thatcher’s in every crucial detail.A new six-part podcast series, hosted by Andrew O'Hagan.Listen to the full series with bonus material here:

This is well researched, with excellent presentation style. The incidental music was intrusive and distracting. Despite this, five stars.

I have spent the week engrossed in this fascinating account of Narenda Sethia’s diary. Hogan does a fantastic job developing the story in an engaging manner, revealing the different elements carefully and intelligently. Brilliant.

Brilliant
This is wonderful. Brilliantly narrated, clipped and genuinely atmospheric. It builds intriguingly like a great thriller but, of course, it’s more important than that. Have listened to hundreds of podcasts - but this is right up there with the very best.
