I'm looking for a historian or author who specializes in the Stuarts or the English Reformation to talk about the Guy Fawkes/Gunpowder Plot for an episode of the Anglotopia Podcast. Please get in touch here, and if you know someone, please share widely! podcast.anglotopia.net/be-a-…

"I cannot recommend [Churchill's Citadel] more highly. It's her first book and I cannot wait to read her next ten books because she is a phenomenal writer."
Huge thanks to @anglotopia for featuring Churchill's Citadel in its 'Best British History Books' list.✌️📘

So, of course, I had to comment on the @hughlaurie spat. Purely from a US/UK cultural viewpoint, though.

Does anyone know where online you can buy the Radio Times Christmas Double Issue with shipping to the USA? My usual source newsstand.co.uk is already sold out.

“Coventry becomes a symbol of reconciliation and peace after the war, forging connections with other bombed cities, including Dresden. It’s this remarkable transformation from devastation to representing hope and international co-operation.”
Dr Chris Smith recently featured on the @anglotopia Podcast, where he spoke about the Coventry Blitz, marking its 85th anniversary.
Chris explores the myths surrounding the event, particularly the narrative that Churchill sacrificed Coventry to protect intelligence secrets.
The conversation also delves into the scale of the bombing, the city’s industrial significance, the immediate aftermath, and the role of propaganda.

If you listened to my interview yesterday with Quintin Lake, the man who walked the entire coast of Britain, and wanted to see some of the incredible pictures, he was kind enough to provide us with a selection which we've been able to share here: photos.anglotopia.net/album/…

I spoke with US based @anglotopia about my 5-year walk around Britain’s coast—what inspired it, what it taught me, and how light, history, wildlife, and even lockdown shaped the journey. We covered photography, place, perspective—and what comes next.

A terrific article about @ChurchillMuseum by the excellent and always insightful team at @anglotopia. Even covers how I became a Churchillian! anglotopia.net/british-histo…
Random niche question, but do any Yeoman Warders at the Tower of London follow Anglotopia, or do you know one? I would love to have one on the podcast,t and I've tried official channels with little luck. Please get in touch! podcast.anglotopia.net
Has anyone who follows Anglotopia successfully applied for a UK Innovators/Start-up Visa and gotten an endorsement from one of the endorsing bodies? Researching something.
