Episode Roifield and David's Stories of England in 50 Objects

0:00 22:53

Roifield and David talk about 5stories of England as part of the Very English Chat project, to tell stories of England in 50 objects.

‘A very English chat’ works is a wonderful project to escape division and polarisation, and the arid quarrels about flags - to build and celebrate a sense of Englishness, as part of a build up to England's national day, St George's Day on 23rd April. We are all invited to share our own 5 objects to be included in a virtual ‘pocket museum’ telling ‘The story of England 2026 in 50 objects.

To take part in a conversation between parishioners of the History of England, add your comment below, or go to the History of England Facebook Group.

To share your 5 objects for submission to the Pocket Museum of Englishness, please go to the A Very English Chat site.

I'd love to hear from you - and have fun celebrating a shared, positive and inclusive vision of Englishness means to us.
