Imagine sweeping through green fields, floating five feet above ground, sun on your face as you slide by on track to your destination, not a car in the world, as you simply lean back.

And before you know it, you're there.

This is how travel should feel, and on our trains, it does.

Avanti West Coast, feel good travel.

Hello, I'm Alice Thompson, and I'm Rachel Solvester.

And this is what I wish I'd known, the podcast in which we talk to extraordinary people who've lived astonishing lives, and not only survived, but thrived.

Lawson University are part of life, but an imperfect past isn't always an indicator of what's to come.

What's the future for the channel? And what does the whole episode tell us about the divisions in Britain today?

You're listening to stories of our times from the Times and the Sunday Times. I'm Manvin Rana. Today, GB News, free speech and a very polarised nation.
