In a country obsessed with gossip, the great and the good fear one thing more than any other - scandal.
British scandals change the course of history. They bring down governments, overthrow the rich and cause the mighty to fall. Some are about sex, others about money. In the end, they’re all about power.
But often at the heart of a scandal, there are ordinary human stories. Stories of those caught up in the swirl of outrage.
Who was really to blame for what happened? Why did they do it? And when all is said and done, did anything really change?
From the creators of Business Wars, American Scandal and Ghost Story, comes British Scandal. Each week, hosts Alice Levine and Matt Forde delve into the murkier side of the British elite, from Phone Hacking to Profumo to the short-lived premiership of Liz Truss. Because sometimes the truth doesn’t set everyone free…

The Interesting Bits is an attempt to delve into the stories of some of history’s underdogs – the forgotten majority who never became historical celebrities but played their part nonetheless. It is designed as an antidote to the ‘big’ narratives of wars and politicians which dominate history books and which suggest history has some overall point. It is here to tell the stories of the mad, bad, stupid, wonderful, odd and improbable things that happened to our ancestors. They have no greater meaning, no direction and no overarching theme beyond being worthy of note, perhaps even memorable and reminding us that the past was as daft as the present and the people of the past were as daft as us. That’s what actually links us.
