1918 - Four Battles in Four Days

After the successes of August 1918, the Allies are smelling blood and, in one of the most overwhelming series of attacks launched during the entire First World War, they deal the Germans a savage blow. The French and British, supported by Canadians, Australians, New Zealanders and Americans, launch four huge attacks in four consecutive days in September, smashing the Germans in multiple parts of their line. Can the Germans withstand such pressure or is the writing on the wall?

In the second episode of our new special series about the triumphant campaign that ended the First World War, Mat is joined by historian Peter Hart to tell the story of four battles in four days.

Gallipoli - The Naval Battle

It's March, 1915. Turkey has entered the war on Germany's side and promptly closed the Dardanelles strait, closing off a vital sea route for our Russian allies. Britain and France decide to take decisive action - they will send a fleet to Gallipoli and storm the Dardanelles!

Armed with a half-baked plan, 16 obsolete warships and little idea of the formidable Turkish defences, the navy was determined to steam to Constantinople and victory. What could possibly go wrong?

In the first episode of a special series on the Gallipoli campaign from our sister podcast, Living History, Pete joins historian Mat McLachlan to tell the story of the disastrous naval battle of March 18, 1915.

Pete and Gary revisit one of their favourite topics in this special series - Gallipoli!

Once the Allies had decided to give up on the Gallipoli Campaign, how could they possibly leave the peninsula without suffering horrendous casualties? Pete and Gary explore how the Anzac and Suvla sectors were so cleverly evacuated - probably the most successful phase of the whole campaign!

GALLIPOLI SPECIAL: Suvla Landing

Pete and Gary revisit one of their favourite topics in this special series - Gallipoli!

Today it's the landing at Suvla Bay, the bold Allied gamble to outflank the Turks and open up a new front on the peninsula.

BONUS: Masters of the Air (from Living History)

A special bonus episode from our sister podcast, Living History with Mat McLachlan! To kick off Season 8, Mat is joined by historian John McManus to discuss the new Tom Hanks/Steven Spielberg production Masters of the Air, currently streaming on Apple TV+. Mat and John discuss the history behind the mini-series, and the immense contribution made to victory in the Second World War by the US Army Air Forces. What was is like to take to the skies in a B-17 over Nazi Germany, what psychological effect did the terror of combat have on the young airmen, and should we feel uncomfortable about the human cost of strategic bombing more than eight decades after the war?
