On this week’s episode Peter will be going back 35 years to a moment in time where he stood and watched the KGB murdering people in Vilnius. And I’ll be asking why did Sarah Ferguson take her children to see Jeffrey Epstein just days after he was released from prison?
Plus, we find out the truth about magnetised train tracks (all lies!), why both 1976 and 1979 are vying for the best of all possible years for two of our listeners, the rise of the extreme right wing and the night the Queen wore rhinestone.
On our reading and watch list this week:
· Brideshead Revisited – Evelyn Waugh
· Eyeless in Gaza – Aldous Huxley
· Hamlet – William Shakespeare
· Short Breaks In Mordor – Peter Hitchens
