Hello, I'm Alice Levine. And I'm Matt Ford, and we're the hosts of British Scandal.

Yes, and you need to strap in for our next series, the Salisbury Poisonings.

Key ingredients. A botched assassination, a military-grade nerve agent, and an innocent lads trip to the world-famous Salisbury Cathedral.

Who can forget? Seven years ago, former Russian spy Serge Sergey Scrippel and his daughter were poisoned by two

Putin goons right here on British soil.

Cue, a British city on lockdown, one of the single most bizarre TV interviews in British

scandal history, and a game of diplomatic cat and mouse between then Prime Minister

Theresa May and still Russian president, Vladimir Putin.

We often say that when we look back, scandals are just plain weirder than we remember.

This is definitely one of those times.

Follow British scandal wherever you listen to podcasts

and binge entire seasons early in ad-free on Wondery Plus.

I'm Afwa Hirsch.

I'm Peter Frankopan.

And in our podcast, Legacy, we explore the lives of some of the biggest characters in history.

This season, we are telling the story of one of the most extraordinary women ever to have lived. The OG of girl power, the maid of Orleans, Joan of Arc.

She did things no woman has ever done, and eventually she was made a saint, all without making it

to the age of 20. What do you reckon, Afwa? Are you looking forward to Joan of Arc?

This is one of my favorites that we've done, Peter. I'm so intrigued and fascinated by people in

general who have a strong sense of mission and calling. And then when you add a kind of supernatural

element to that, I just can't resist this story. Throw in the war to end all wars, the hundred years war, it's got kings, it's got saints, it's got the Battle of Agincourt.

If you wanted a box set that's Amazon Prime ready, it's got everything you possibly want.
