92. Nuclear Weapons

The Rest Is History

The year is 1983, and on November the 8th the world is the closest it’s ever been to nuclear destruction, yet nobody at the time realises. Dominic and Tom are joined by author and historian Taylor Downing to discuss how Armageddon was just avoided and why Tom, living near Salisbury, was in more danger than most.


A Goalhanger Films & Left Peg Media production

Produced by Jack Davenport & Harry Lineker

Exec Producer Tony Pastor
