Fancy travelling back in time? Our new podcast, The Timekeeper’s Podcast, is here to take you on a journey through history.

Join our Head of History, Mr Wileman, each week as he explores fascinating stories from the past, bringing history to life through intriguing people, unusual objects and stories you may not have heard before.

Each episode takes listeners on a different journey through time, with a new period, person or story to discover. From well-known moments in history to the lesser-known tales that deserve to be remembered, there’s plenty to spark curiosity and get you thinking.

What’s in the first episode?

For the very first episode of The Timekeeper’s Podcast, Mr Wileman explores some fascinating stories from the First and Second World Wars.

Discover how the British used inflatable tanks during the Second World War, before taking a closer look at the rather less appetising side of history in our Historical Object section, where we explore the standard-issue food rations given to British troops on the Western Front during the First World War.

And in our Past Persona section, we meet a pioneer of the Windrush Generation and discover more about their life and contribution to British history.

The first episode will be available via the link in this week’s Weekly Newsletter.
