Imagine the scenes in The Blues Brothers where they are putting the old band back together.
But without the sunglasses.
Or being cool.

My interview with Andre Lownie for @mongerspodcast.bsky.social will be available from 6am London time tomorrow but here’s a taster of a conversation that goes behind the recent headlines of royal naughtiness & punch ups into the serious constitutional/policing aspects of the Andrew and Fergie saga.

I'm not sure there's a more important book for SWW historians to read in 2025. Leave your bunting and simplistic VE nostalgia at the door though. Its a complex, messy, shameful, harrowing, but ultimately victorious story told beautifully by @philmcraig.bsky.social. Phew, need a cuppa! #histbookchat

People ask 'Are you sure the 🇬🇧 govt released Japanese POWs to fight under British command in 1945?', because it seems so unlikely given how we like to remember WW2.
It wasn't exactly a secret at the time but my bet is that hardly anyone in the UK today knows this story from my book. Am I right?

Many thanks Matt! I wasn’t certain how much pre war stuff readers would enjoy/tolerate but to understand how both acted during the war I felt it was important. Also it has some jokes!
