Episode Description from the Publisher

Roifield and David talk about 5stories of England as part of the Very English Chat project, to tell stories of England in 50 objects. ‘A very English chat’ works is a wonderful project to escape division and polarisation, and the arid quarrels about flags - to build and celebrate a sense of Englishness, as part of a build up to England's national day, St George's Day on 23rd April. We are all invited to share our own 5 objects to be included in a virtual ‘pocket museum’ telling ‘The story of England 2026 in 50 objects.  To take part in a conversation between parishioners of the History of England, add your comment below, or go to the History of England Facebook Group. To share your 5 objects for submission to the Pocket Museum of Englishness, please go to the A Very English Chat site. I'd love to hear from you - and have fun celebrating a shared, positive and inclusive vision of Englishness means to us.   Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
