Join Gyles Brandreth for a hilarious romp through British history. However this isn’t your usual history book….from Stonehenge and Boudicca to Megxit and Brexit, each topic is written in 60-second installments, without hesitation, repetition, or deviation.

A History of Britain in Just a Minute celebrates key moments, people and places from our past: kings and queens, heroes and villains, triumphs and disasters, inventions and events, battles and bonnets, art, science, literature, entertainment, sport, gossip, and more. Some entries are uninterrupted minutes, while others feature challenges for repetition and even, er…hesitation. You’ll even find other Just a Minute panellists occasionally grabbing the pen to regale us with their witty takes on history.

You’ve never heard the history of Britain told quite like this!

*Copies of A History of Britain in Just a Minute will be available to purchase on the night for £16.99 (rrp)*.
