Discovering Atlantis with Dan Snow
Historian #DanSnow travels to Greece to discover if there is any truth in the tale of the legendary island in the Atlantic Ocean that supposedly disappeared beneath the waves.
The sitters on Portrait Artist of the Year generally sit still and quietly - at least according to the TV edit - but I love that Dan Snow has been shown talking about Ernest Shackleton to the artists and other attendees.

Dan Snow @thehistoryguy They did beat Napoleon But they lost to the French, British & Turks They lost to the Japanese They lost to the Germans They lost to the Poles Then they beat Hitler Past performance is both ambiguous and poorly correlated. Quote Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump · 7h Trump, once again, is trashing President Zelensky, blames the US for Putin's invasion of Ukraine, and suggests Ukraine must surrender because Russia always wins wars: “That’s what they do.

Dan Snow @thehistoryguy The legendary RAF fighter pilot Douglas Bader died today in 1982. This anecdote is not true but it is funny. WAR OF WORDS Today marks the 35th anniversary of the death of Sir Douglas Bader and I couldn't let it pass without this story about the RAF hero. He was giving a talk at an upmarket girls school about his time as a pilot in the Second World War. “So there were two of the f***ers behind me, three f***ers on my right, another f***er on the left," he told the audience. The headmistress went pale and interjected: “Ladies, the Fokker was a German aircraft.” Sir Douglas replied: “That may be, madam, but these f***ers were in Messerschmitts.” GRANT TUCKER

Dan Snow @thehistoryguy This week in 1399 Richard II was holed up in Conwy Castle. Henry Percy went to meet Richard and promised him he wouldn't be hurt. He surrendered to Percy on the 19th at Flint castle. He was taken to London, then Pontefract. And hurt.
