The Great War - youtube channel

Just a quick post to highlight a youtube channel I've been really enjoying recently. I wouldn't normally do something like this here, but I also wanted to have a note of it just in case I forget about it, as it's a long term project.

This channel is following WW1 week by week from start to finish, exactly 100 years after the event. So, those of you with their heads screwed on will realise that it has been running since 2014; consequently, there are many episodes to catch up on!

The channel also does special episodes about the various people, places and ideas of the time and also short and very interesting Q&A episodes.

What is very appealing about the channel is that episodes are short, about 10 minutes an episode. So, for those of you with short attention spans, like myself, it's perfect for getting a tasty dose of knowledge between doing other things.

Huzzah!
