Summary

Was Churchill the greatest Briton of all time? Why are people like Boris Johnson so keen to be seen like Churchill? How did Nazi war criminals start new lives in places like South America? Listen to these exclusive extracts from Dominic Sandbrook, Tim Shipman, and Philippe Sands' talks from last year's We Have Ways Festival on whether Winston Churchill was the greatest Briton, and how some of the worst Nazi war criminals managed to evade capture and help dictators like Pinochet perpetrate their own crimes.
