This week we are living life in the fast lane as we look into the origin of arguably the most British car company of all time (notwithstanding current German ownership). It is a story of three unlikely partners who had just the right mix of skills and connections at the perfect moment in history. It is just a shame that none of them ever seemed to be even remotely happy. Guest Host: Matt Hare<hr> Hosted on Acast.

Royce and Rolls - A workaholic a toff and a middle manager walk into car...

The British Isles have thousands of years of history, so it's weird that all most people were taught at school was World War Two, how many wives Henry VIII had and that the Battle of Hastings took place in 1066 (always worth a try if you are trying to guess someones pin number). If you've always wanted to learn about all the bits between these events, but only if it can be done in a random and eclectic manner why not try Consistently Eccentric History? A podcast where each week you can listen in while I tell one of my friends a story about a lesser known person or event in British history, the weirder and less believable the better. With an archive of over 150 episodes you will never again be short a weird historical fact when trying to impress others.<hr> Hosted on Acast.
