Back When | History Podcast

Imagine being a fly on the wall of history.

Historians Helen Antrobus and James Grasby take you inside the stories of the people, places and moments that made us.

Experience the Great Stink of London. Make an entrance in the Georgian dating scene. Find out if you’d survive a medieval battle and unlock the secrets of Britain’s space race.

Our past is all around us. And we’ll be transporting you behind the scenes at landmarks from castles to dance halls, WWII bunkers and workhouses. You’ll meet people from all walks of life whose fascinating stories have shaped who we are now.

Lean in for a tale from time: Back When.

Launching 2 April, you’ll get a new story every fortnight. Follow Back When on your favourite podcast app to make sure you never miss an episode.
