What if The Russian Revolution Failed? Why it's The Most Significant Event in Modern History

Darryl Morris is joined by Rear Admiral Dr Chris Parry and Anna Reid to discuss arguably one of the most consequential what ifs of the 20th Century and beyond: the October Revolution in 1917 and subsequent Russian Civil War. It not only ended centuries of tsarist rule and pulled Russia out of the First World War, but led to the creation of the Soviet Union and its most famous figures. Without the Bolshevik victory, would we still have World War 2, the Cold War, the space race or the rise of Putin? This is History Undone. Hosted on Acast.

What if Russia had WON the Battle of Tsushima? No Pearl Harbor & a totally different WWI

On this episodes of History Undone, Darryl Morris, Rear Admiral Dr Chris Parry & Drachinifel discuss one of the most important moments of naval warfare: The Battle of Tsushima. The encounter that effectively ended the Russo-Japanese war of 1904-1905, it was a catastrophic defeat for Russia and Tsar Nicholas II. Victory saw a changing of the guard on the seas in the Far East, meaning Japan was now the dominant naval power - the ripples of that of course, lingered long after the beginning of the 20th century.

What if Robert E Lee had fought for the Union? He could become President | History Undone

On this episode of History Undone Darryl Morris is joined by Rear Admiral Dr Chris Parry and Dr Timothy Orr to discuss Robert E Lee's decision to fight for the Confederacy during the American Civil War. Considered the south's finest general, Lee was actually offered command of the Union's forces in Virginia by President Abraham Lincoln, but he would not fight against his home state that had seceded just a day earlier. So what if he had made that monumental decision and become Lee, the Union general instead? This is History Undone. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

What Now For Andrew?

Talk Breakfast host Mark Dolan opens a dramatic morning after Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office and later released under investigation, a development dominating front pages and reigniting the crisis around Andrew’s past links to Jeffrey Epstein. Dolan frames the central question for listeners: is Andrew’s return home a temporary reprieve, or the start of a legal process that could end in a prosecution with profound consequences for the royal family? In studio, former newspaper editor Neil Wallis describes the arrest as a rare, true “stop-the-presses” moment, while Talk’s royal correspondent Rupert Bell says the speed and intensity of the police action has shocked even those who felt it was “inevitable.” The discussion turns to the Palace response, King Charles’ message that “the law must take its course”, and whether the monarchy can contain the scandal to Andrew alone, or whether it risks contaminating the institution if the public senses anything less than full cooperation. Joining from the US, royal commentator Kinsey Schofield argues investigators may have moved fast to secure evidence, particularly with Andrew “moving from one place to another,” and suggests the focus, at this stage, is the alleged sharing of confidential information in a government capacity rather than wider historic claims. The panel then debates whether Andrew should be removed from the line of succession to “tidy it up,” and what further steps, if any, Charles should take while an active investigation is ongoing. Mark Dolan is later joined by Isabel Oakeshott to analyse the arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor on suspicion of misconduct in public office, with a focus on the legal and reputational consequences rather than the spectacle. Oakeshott warns the Crown Prosecution Service faces a “painstaking and very long winded process” to determine whether there is a realistic prospect of conviction, noting the offence is “notoriously difficult to prosecute” and any decision will be heavily scrutinised whichever way it falls. The discussion turns to Andrew’s long-standing issues of judgment, his associations with controversial figures, and whether the damage now extends beyond one individual to the institution itself. Oakeshott argues the scandal risks spreading to the wider royal brand, not because of direct wrongdoing by others, but because of questions over whether stronger intervention should have come earlier. Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor denies any wrongdoing. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Migrants Get Compensation

Britain’s chief prosecutor insists “no one is above the law” as Mark Dolan takes on the growing storm around Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, with legendary royal insider Dickie Arbiter warning the disgraced ex-duke’s “protestations of innocence” have been crumbling since the 2019 Newsnight interview and demanding he “step forward” and answer questions on both sides of the Atlantic. With police “assessing” and the Palace under pressure, the show asks the uncomfortable question: is Andrew now heading for a Congress grilling, a UK investigation, or both? The morning then turns to the Sun’s explosive “asylum farce” splash: £500,000 already paid in phone compensation to illegal migrants, with Mark summing up the mood as listeners rage that it’s become “make it make sense” Britain. Brendan O’Neill (Spiked) says taking phones is “a fundamental right” for a sovereign country, while former Tory leader Sir Ian Duncan-Smith brands the system “a complete mess”, backing tougher action on the ECHR and warning the bill could spiral into the millions. Away from Westminster and the courts, Mark also wades into the culture wars as Bond fans clash over what 007 should look like, with historian and broadcaster Rafe Heydel-Mankoo arguing “if you want diverse spies, create your own new characters” and warning against tampering with the “tried and true formula” as Amazon takes the wheel. From royals to borders to Bond, it’s a morning of hard questions, sharp takes, and a single theme running through it all: the public’s patience is wearing thin. Wake up with Talk Breakfast in full on YouTube, DAB+ radio, Freeview 280, Fire TV, Samsung TV Plus or the Talk App on your TV from 6am every morning. Hosted on Acast.

What if Germany had taken Moscow in WWII? ‘Stalin would have met with an accident…’

On today's History Undone Darryl Morris is joined by Dr Klaus Schmider and Rear Admiral Dr Chris Parry to discuss one of Adolf Hitler's most critical decisions of the Second World War. During the early days of Operation Barbarossa, he made an order for army groups to split north and south, rather than push on and head straight for Moscow, seeing the capital as a secondary objective. By the time mere months later, the Nazis' diverted their attentions back here, it was already too late. So what if they had pushed on early in 1941 and attempted to topple the Kremlin?

What if Japan had Successfully Invaded India in WW2? ‘A geopolitical disaster’

On this episode of History Undone, Darryl Morris, Rear Admiral Dr Chris Parry and Jonathan Parshall discuss one of the most overlooked campaigns of the Second World War: Burma and the South East Asian theatre. Japan occupied the nation from 1942 until 1945 and despite pushing on for a failed invasion of India in 1944, there was an opportunity two years earlier that Japan did not take. So what if Imperial Japan had pushed on and successfully invaded the jewel in the crown of the British Empire? This is History Undone. Welcome to Times Radio History, a channel that looks back at pivotal moments and asks 'What if?'. We'll be looking at key battles, strategic decisions and political outcomes with leading historians and current military experts and tacticians to see what might have happened differently, and more importantly, what impact those differences might have had on the world today.
