Customer Reviews
Really intriguing
I thought this was a really good podcast. Good storytelling and I learnt loads I didn’t know before. Episodes not too long either.
Another great series
So intriguing and fascinating to hear from so many people involved in this story. Love the way that the series flows from one part to the next - very well told and documented!
Shame on the Telegraph! Zero stars really!
Hands up, I don’t agree with much of the Telegraph’s politics, but I do respect a lot of its writing, especially around Business and Sport. I also enjoyed the Crossfire pod. This, however, is just an ar$e-licking exercise for “good old Nige”.
