Berlin, the city that draws in the world.

I'm John Kampfner, best-selling author of why the Germans do it better.

I've spent four years walking Berlin streets,

talking to historians, architects, archaeologists and politicians,

visiting sites of joy, horror, beauty and madness.

In search of Berlin, the 800-year story of a reinvented city by me, John Kampfner,

available now in all good bookshops.

This episode of Red Box is brought to you in association with SSE,

a leading clean energy champion,

accelerating the transition to net zero.

SSE is investing over £9 million a day in cleaner, more secure, homegrown energy.

That includes transforming networks across the country

to connect renewable energy, households and businesses to a greener grid,

pioneering low-carbon, flexible technologies such as carbon capture and storage,

and building the world's largest offshore wind farm, a doggar bank off the coast of Yorkshire.

When complete, doggar bank will be capable of powering over six million homes a year

with clean, renewable energy, a major step towards the UK achieving net zero carbon emissions.

And all this is creating thousands of sustainable green jobs in communities right across the UK.

Well, good evening. Welcome along. This is the Times Red Box podcast.

I am not Matt Chawley again. Sorry, Luke Jones is sitting in all this week,

whilst Matt is away on holiday ahead, we are talking Panto.
