Frank Skinner and guests Chris Addison, Alun Cochrane and Professor Kate Williams discuss the three wise men. From 2016.

Frank Skinner loves history, but just doesn't know much of it. So he's devised a comedy discussion show in order to find out more about it.

Along with his historian in residence, Professor Kate Williams, Frank is joined by Chris Addison and Alun Cochrane.

Up for discussion: The three wise men, Jack Straw (not that one), Henry Austen and a weaponry timeline.

Producers: Mark Augustyn and Justin Pollard

An Avalon production for BBC Radio 4, first broadcast in April 2016.
