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… Listen to British Scandal on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts. You can listen early and ad-free on Wondery+.

Accents are comically awful
6 Oct
I enjoyed the Peru Two podcast, but the Glaswegian accent was so comically awful it sounded like something from Brigadoon. I’m sure this must be done for comedy effect.
Humour spot on

I love the humour. For me it’s the best bit and why I listen to this podcast. Alice and Matt are great together
Great narration
5 days ago
Alice’s narration is engaging, she’s clearly a very good story teller. The interruptions, pauses in the story are unnecessary and a tad annoying. I’d prefer to listen to Alice telling the story, I feel Matt’s contributions are irrelevant. The humour is weak, the podcast would be better without it.
Gave up on s48 e2

Sorry but gave up on episode 2. Tries to add humour but it’s painful, Matt chips in with totally meaningless comments trying to be funny and I’m not sure what the point is. Shame as could be great but it’s painful. I’ll try the other seasons but anything like season 48 and I’ll move on.
