    You can go to the bbc website. Google bbc sounds podcasts. Then have a search through.  I also highly recommend The Battersea Poltergeist and Uncanny on bbc sounds. I also have a free app called "pocketcasts" and you can subscribe to podcasts including bbc ones so new episodes land and automatically download.

    Here's a screenshot of my homepage. All the ones I listen to are free.

    ooh thank you.  I shall attempt to download the app on my phone.  I don't use free ones unless recommended as I am scared of downloading virus's.
    I like history so have subscribed.  Mr M_F has just come along nosing at what I'm up to.  He then tried to tell me I already have a podcast app on my phone - he has been advised to jog on as I have all the assistance I need 😎

    The pocketcasts app has been good to me. This afternoon I have listened to Ian Hislops podcasts about old England. Wessex & Mercia, Alfred the Great and so on. I need to re-listen as I zone out when working but need the background noise. DD's rubbish youtubers on the TV don't help.😖

    hahaha this made me smile to see another SMA fan :-), hope the men drama sorts itself without taking too much of the snickers stock up.

    @FootyFanDan What's your beef? have a lot to catch up on! I used to listen on my commute and would be laughing away to myself but realise it's not everyone's cup of tea.
