Summary
We're back talking to WW2 Historian Andrew Chatterton who first came on the pod in August 2023 to tell David & Joe all about Britains secret defences. This time he takes Joe on a fascinating field trip to Coleshill House, HQ for the Auxiliary Units. It was here the secret resistance learnt how to assasinate people and blow things up. Andrew shows them a disguised chicken shed with a false wall and an upside down horse shoe used as a secret signal. Joe get's to explore an underground bunker and crawl through an escape tunnel while David (who's feeling poorly) watches the excitement unfold on zoom.
