The Frisian Islands are northern Europe's equivalent of Cape Cod.  Most remain laid-back retreats, but one in particular has become the summer place to be and be seen.

This episode of the Anywhere But Here Podcast is a rambling one, so strap yourselves in! The guys start off by discussing how long is too long to email someone back about a request to do with joining a podcast network, which leads to the fact that Ant and Tom are sometimes terrible at getting back to people. Including each other. Tom went on holiday and shares some stories about Holland and the Frisian Islands in particular, which also progresses to a long discussion about languages and how certain words or phases have evolved. Tom also played a gig with the covers band he joined recently. It was in the drummer's back garden where there was a makeshift bar which prompted a chat between the guys about home ownership and random projects around the house... which may be really boring. But, stay til the end because they cover Celebrity Big Brother because Tom's Uncle is in it. Also, if you've got any ideas about what we can do for the 200th episode (please) let us know(!) by contacting us on the links below. Enjoy!

Melvyn Bragg and guests discusses the prescient thriller ‘The Riddle of the Sands’ about the decline Anglo-German relations before the First World War. In 1903 an Englishman called Charles Caruthers went sailing in the North Sea and stumbled upon a German military plot. The cunning plan was to invade the British Isles from the Frisian Islands using special barges. The plucky Caruthers foiled the plot and returned to his sailing holiday.This is not history but fiction, an immensely popular book called ‘The Riddle of the Sands’ by Erskine Childers. It was a prescient vision of two nations soon to fight the First World War but it went against the spirit of the previous century. Brits and Germans had fought together at Waterloo and had influenced profoundly each other’s thought and art. They even shared a royal family. Yet somehow victory at Waterloo and the shared glories of Romanticism became the mutual tragedy of the Somme.With Richard Evans, Professor of Modern History at the University of Cambridge; Rosemary Ashton, Quain Professor of English Language and Literature at University College London and Tim Blanning, Professor of Modern European history at The University of Cambridge.
