From Sam Willis, presenter of the BBC's The Silk Road and Invasion! and Professor James Daybell comes an exciting new history show that will change the way that you think about the past...and the present GUARANTEED!
History as you’ve never seen it before in this fun for all the family historical extravaganza...for ages 8-108!!
Inspired by VE Day, this special edition of Histories of the Unexpected LIVE! demonstrates how everything has a history and how those subjects link together in unexpected ways. What links together Hiroshima, the Titanic, the Allied invasion of Italy, Neolithic cave painting, the Blitz, Victorian perfumes, D-Day, Glaswegian razor-gangs, Darwin, Churchill, mutiny and gloves?
Expect mind-bending stories, shocking tales and fascinating relics as our Histories of the Unexpected duo rampage around the past, leaving no stone unturned in their madcap mission to make sure that you never think about the past in the same way…ever again!
