Brilliant
Well researched stories, 3-4 per episode, about aspects of history, both well known and totally obscure. Well presented, of course— it’s the BBC!

Ever a boring segment
I look forward to the new episodes that come out, however, why is it that some won’t play? i.e. 10/16/2021 Pakistani law that jails rape victims and 12/25/2021 Right to Drive in Saudi Arabia. As for a review, your program is wonderful, but I just would like an answer to my question.

Interesting range of topics
I like the range of topics and people who are interviewed. Some of the interviewers talk like they’re auditioning for Blue Peter, which is weird - not sure why that’s become the house style recently! Worth dipping in and out of, and learning about historical events from around the world.
