The Time: 1919
The Story: Unlivable high cost of living
 | Post war: the Spanish flu running rampant, over 2 million people unemployed in the UK, empty shelves in stores, and incredibly high prices for food. The more things change, the more things stay the same...   
 |  We upload short historical news stories daily (Series 2), fuller yearly episodes and headlines every Tuesday (Series 1 and 3).  
 | All of our stories come from historical newspapers and publications.  
 | 
 | Series 1: In depth review of historical times   
 | Series 2: Short historical news stories of everyday people   
 | Series 3: Headline from history to give a flavour of the times   
 | Hosted by Robin Coles
