Talked about 3 films, a mini series and PBS television show depicting various times in the life and reign of Queen Victoria.

The start of World War I featured officers in white gloves, leading troops in neat lines, and cavalry charges complete with sabres and lances. But this changed on 15th September, 1914 - when soldiers began digging into the earth, laying the groundwork for the trench warfare that would come to define the conflict.By that November, trenches covered 400 miles along the Western Front, in two opposing lines that were often as close as 50 metres, with "No Man’s Land" in between—a deadly strip of land

When Abbott Elementary first premiered, many fans were skeptical. The mockumentary format had already been perfected by classics like The Office and Parks and Recreation. After years of copycats, the genre felt tired and full of clichés.But then something unexpected happened — Abbott Elementary worked. By introducing subtle changes to the formula, the show managed to feel fresh, relevant, and genuinely funny. Instead of being another imitation, it breathed new life into the mockumentary sitcom and

My favorite sports movies are Chariots of Fire and The Natural. The two leads in Chariots of Fire -- Ben Cross and Ian Charleson -- are gone, as is key supporting actor Brad Davis. Robert Redford's passing made me think of Ben (who lived into his 70s), but especially Brad and Ian, who both died of AIDS at ages 41 and 40, respectively.

Send us a message! He won an Oscar for playing a man who presided over desperation. Offscreen, he lived it. Gig Young was Hollywood’s charming second fiddle, the witty drunk, the romantic rival, the man who never quite got the girl. But in 1969, he stunned the industry with a searing performance in They Shoot Horses, Don’t They?, earning the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. Less than a decade later, he would make headlines again—this time for a murder-suicide that left the world askin...

The secret wedding of poets Elizabeth Barrett and Robert Browning on September 12th, 1846, was witnessed by just two people. Elizabeth was so nervous about the ceremony, held at Marylebone Parish Church, that she needed smelling salts to calm her. Barrett was already an acclaimed poet, while Browning was relatively unknown at the time. But their correspondence, comprising almost 600 letters exchanged over less than two years, is considered one of literature’s great romances. In this episode,

For years, the Mystery Box formula has been blamed for some of TV’s most frustrating finales—shows that pile on endless questions but rarely deliver satisfying answers. When Ben Stiller’s Severance returned for Season 2, fans wondered if it would fall into the same trap or finally break the cycle.With the Season 2 premiere, it became clear—Severance isn’t just creating mysteries; it’s narrating a carefully mapped-out story. Instead of relying on cheap teases, the series shows it has a plan, giving

Construction of the Virginia headquarters of the U.S. Department of Defense began on September 11th, 1941 - spookily, the same date it was attacked by al-Qaeda six decades later. The massive five-sided building, a potent symbol of America’s military strength, became known as the Pentagon. Featuring 4 million square feet of office space, the building was designed by George Bergstrom under the supervision of Leslie R. Groves, who was later chosen to head the Manhattan Project and build the atomic

In this episode of The Forbidden Frequency, we turn up the heat on a trailblazing inventor you've likely never heard of—Alice H. Parker, the Black woman who patented a revolutionary gas-powered furnace system in 1919. Long before central heating became standard, Parker imagined a future where homes could be safely and efficiently warmed, room by room, using natural gas and ductwork—ideas far ahead of her time. Join us as we trace her remarkable vision, explore why her contributions were buried in

The guillotine claimed its last victim on 10th September, 1977, when murderer Hamida Djandoubi was executed in Marseille, his grim end marking the closing chapter of nearly two centuries of clinical beheading, stretching back to the French Revolution. Overseen by France’s last official executioner Marcel Chevalier, the event was private and hushed - a far cry from the raucous public spectacles that had once drawn huge crowds. Witness accounts described Djandoubi drinking rum, smoking his final

'The Hank McCune Show' - an otherwise unremarkable footnote in American TV history - became the first single-camera sitcom to deploy a pre-recorded laugh track (aka ‘canned laughter’) on 9th September, 1950. The giggles and applause came courtesy of Charlie Douglass, who made a career of capturing audience reaction in his ‘laff box’, and then expertly sprinkling it across other shows, including Bewitched, The Munsters and The Flintstones. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly look back at Red
