A couple weeks ago I had the pleasure of having some great conversations with people I really admire about the ‘State Of The Nation’. Learned a lot, thought a lot, exchanged a lot. Laughed a lot as well to be fair. Which show did you catch? big ups and thanks to @misanharriman @darren_mcgarvey @mhairi_black_ @aameranwar @lowkeyonline @olusoga @kelechnekoff @thescouseoracle Big up @paul_husband_photography

đŸ”« A master storyteller. You’ve watched his documentaries, but seeing David Olusoga live is something else entirely. Loved by audiences across the UK, join David this May for A Gun Through Time, the show that’ll make you think: ‘why didn’t I learn that sooner?’ To book your tickets, click the link in bio or visit the Fane website.

THE FIRST EVER SANDWICH đŸ„Ș AD Follow me as I try to replicate the first ever sandwich from 1762 with @hellmansuk and try and put the little town of Sandwich in Kent, back on the map. I’ve recipe tested, chatted to historians David Olusoga and Annie Gray, travelled far and wide, it’s one of the toughest challenges I’ve faced in the kitchen, but I reckon we did a pretty good job. You can try the sandwich right now at The Crispin Inn in Sandwich, Kent!

Never did I imagine I’d be called upon by @HellmannsUK for my historical perspective on sandwiches and British history. Working together with friend @dranniegray , a food historian, we set out to imagine what might have filled the very first sandwich; a small question that opens up a much larger story. The conclusion? You can discover it for yourself at The Crispin Inn in Sandwich, Kent, where the sandwich is being served starting April 2. The first 150 sandwiches are free from 12pm! A special thanks to @dinnerbyben for bringing our vision to life, giving it a thoughtful and delicious modern twist. Go try the sandwich in Sandwich! #homeofthefirstsandwich

“It is a braver historian than myself who would predict the end of an institution that seems to weather every storm.” Historian David @olusoga says the royal family’s “moment of crisis” over Andrew has been brewing since the late Queen’s death.

“There’s many reasons why we were terrible
 largely because every day we went out, we did something amazing together, and we bonded.” The Celebrity Traitors’ David @olusoga says his memory of his time on the show was of “laughing the whole time.”
