This is episode 170 and the sound you're hearing is the cheering and the flaming hot emotion because Sir Harry Smith is back in town! The town is Cape Town — Sir Harry won't hang around there for too long, he as you know from the previous episode, has returned to South Africa to take up his new position as Governor of the Cape. Sir Harry was the former civil commissioner of the de-annexed Province of Queen Adelaide in the Eastern Cape and in June 1840 he'd left Cape Town to take up a post as Adjutant-General in India. There is this incredibly long history of connection between India and South Africa, and people like Smith were part of that history. Others of course are people like Gandhi, but that's a story for further down the road. Smith was courageous, whatever other faults he may have had, and was involved in a sensational victory at the Battle of Aliwal in India on 28 January 1846 during the first Anglo-Sikh War. That victory led to a promotion to Major General, and he was offered an accepted a baronetcy. The British parliament formally thanked Smith, and then returned to England where the extremely bloated ego he'd developed over the past few decades was further fluffed up. While in England he'd spent a lot of time with the Duke of Wellington who'd defeated Napoleon, and with the Duke's support, he convinced the British government that the festering sore of the Eastern Cape of South Africa could be healed. This expensive disaster after disaster he said could be resolved quickly, and even more importantly, cheaply. When he returned to England in 1847, Harry Smith was treated like royalty, greeted at Southampton by artillery salutes, church bells rang, thousands of people cheered him, a special train was laid on to take him to London, where he received the freedom of the Guildhall. He dined with Queen Victoria, and was pretty much the first authentic military hero of the Victorian era. Waterloo was 30 years earlier, a long way off, and there'd been very little military glory since. Thus, Wellington whispered in the ears of the powerful, and that is how Harry Smith was appointed the new Governor of the Cape, strategically important but infuriatingly complex. All settlers agreed, the Queen had made a perfect appointment. As we're going to hear, this was going to be possibly her worst appointment anywhere up to then. All the hero worship was going straight to this little man's head. He was short, so by little I mean horizontally challenged. Doing the hard work of making sense of negotiations were the translators. These were men, black and white, who had a vast influence on our history. Smith said to Sandile that he should leave Grahamstown and go to his people, whereupon the translators claim Sandile said “No — I will stay today near you, my former and best friend…” Historians believe these exchanges were embroidered, altered, and added to the misunderstandings. Many of the translators were sons of missionaries, or settlers who'd grown up speaking amaXhosa fluently. But they fed Smith what he wanted to hear. The very same translators had been at work when Sandile was taken into Grahamstown to be placed under house arrest so you can see that their editorialising was having an effect on history.

So in this episode Laura, Krys and Dean discuss Valentines Day, mostly in Krysta's corner before we dig into the life of Harry Oakes. We discuss his life, how he discovered his fortune, how he met his young wife and became a British Citizen and earned the title of Baronet as he settled in the Bahamas. The Bahamas was governed by the Duke of Windsor, the former King of England Edward the VIII and his American wife the Duchess of Windsor. We learn about his murder, how someone attempted to set the body on fire using insecticide and then we discuss suspects, the bungling of the investigation and so much more in this man-history-can-be-weird episode of the Family Plot Podcast!!

Professor Sir Harry Bhadeshia is Professor of Metallurgy at Queen Mary University of London and Emeritus Tata Steel Professor of Metallurgy at the University of Cambridge. He's been described as a ‘steel innovator' – developing multiple new alloys with a host of real-world applications, from rail tracks to military armour. Harry's prolific work in the field has earned him widespread recognition and a Knighthood; but it's not always been an easy ride... From his childhood in Kenya and an enforced move to the UK as a teenager, to the years standing up to those seeking to discredit the new path he was forging in steel research - Jim Al-Khalili discovers that Harry's achievements have required significant determination, as well as hard work.

The Sixth Frontier war had started on 21st December 1834 and this would be a dirty affair - a calamity for the amaXhosa. When it began Hintsa the Xhosa regent did not join in, but something that was first called Maqoma's war was eventually to be known as Hintsa's war because of what happened to him. The amaxhosa were assaulting the frontier across a wide region from the Winterberg down to Algoa Bay. The English settlers fled to the towns of Bathurst, Grahamstown, Fort Beaufort, Salem. The Boers had setup laagers or entered the towns, the entire frontier was aflame. Governor D'Urban had left it too late to travel to the frontier to intelligence gather, and now there was a full-blown war on the go. The entirely unanticipated invasion of the Colony had unleashed widespread panic and confusion in the Albany, Somerset and Uitenhage districts and the amaxhosa had inflicted significant damage on the settlements. As you heard last episode, the missionaries were left alone by the rampaging Xhosa - who differentiated between an enemy and a friend. Back in Cape Town, Sir Benjamin D'Urban was in a panic of his own. It was at this moment that he turned to one of the most extraordinary men of the age, Colonel Henry George Wakelyn Smith. He'd fought with the Duke of Wellington in Spain where he met his wife who gave her name to Ladysmith. Juana Maria de lost Dolores de Leon was only 14 when he met her. Harry Smith was 24, and within two weeks they were married and basically from then on, she never left his side. I suppose you could say there was only a ten year age difference, but this was 1812. Juana, aka Lady Smith, travelled with Harry in the camps, from battle scene to battle scene, witnessing his fighting at close hand, each battle praying her beloved “Enrique” would emerge unscathed. And each battle he did indeed. Back on the frontier, the shock of the amaXhosa invasion had utterly popped the Settler smugness bubble. The fact that the amaXhosa were not intimidated by the empire and colonial power was frightening to men and women who were afraid of their own bureaucrats. The Settlers had been totally indifferent to the suffering of the amaXhosa on the frontier - and for that they were now paying a heavy price.

In the 1940s the Bahamas was something of a tropical paradise for the world's rich. Used as a tax haven and an island getaway far removed from the battlefields of war, it was an idyllic retreat for those that could afford it. Its society had a somewhat darker underbelly, however, with ties to money launderers, smugglers, spies and mobsters. At least, that was how it started to appear in stories after one of the richest men in the world wound up dead in his Bahamian home in the summer of 1943. The fact that all of this happened under the nose of the island's governor, the one time King of England, Edward, the Duke of Windsor, who was at the time a suspected Nazi sympathiser, made it all the more intriguing, becoming the only story to ever knock the news of the war from the front pages of the Daily Telegraph.

Juli 1943: Sir Harry Oakes hat sein Vermögen im Goldrausch gemacht und ist inzwischen einer, wenn nicht sogar der reichste Mann des British Empires. Doch jetzt liegt er tot in seinem Bett auf den Bahamas. Aber wer hat ihn ermordet? Der Duke von Windsor, also der ehemalige König Eduard VIII. von England, der seinen Thron aufgegeben hat, um die Amerikanerin Wallis Simpson zu heiraten, ist jetzt Gouverneur der Bahamas und ein guter Freund von Sir Harry Oakes. Also lässt er es sich nicht nehmen, in diesem Fall selbst die Ermittler zu stellen.

If you think of health in the UK as a fabric, it is the most threadbare in Glasgow. Here, life expectancy is lowest, and one in four men will die before their sixty-fifth birthday. But even after adjusting for poverty and deprivation, next to comparable deindustrialised cities such as Liverpool and Manchester, Glaswegians have a 30% risk of dying prematurely. That's from cancer heart disease stroke as well as deaths of despair: suicide, drugs alcohol. It isn't getting any better, and that's not even taking into account the pandemic. In this episode, we explore: What is fraying health to this degree in Glasgow? What is being done to help? And what can we all learn from Glasgow's longstanding efforts to try to mend the health fabric, as we all attempt to build back better after the pandemic? Our Chief Executive Dr Jennifer Dixon discusses this with two expert guests who have for many years been central to this story: Dr David Walsh is Honorary Senior Lecturer at the University of Glasgow, and a senior academic at the Glasgow Centre for Population Health. Over the years David has carried out a large body of work aimed at understanding Scotland's (and Glasgow's) high levels of ‘excess' mortality, deindustrialisation and health across European regions, and the impact of government ‘austerity' measures on mortality.  Sir Harry Burns is the Professor of Global Public Health, University of Strathclyde. Harry was the Chief Medical Officer for Scotland for almost ten years from September 2005 to April 2014, and is well known for his tireless work on health inequalities. He is a member of the Council of Economic Advisers in Scotland. Recommended reading: Walsh D, Bendel N, Jones R, Hanlon P. Investigating a 'Glasgow effect'.

ENGLAND WON THEIR FIRST EURO'S OPENER! Kalvin Phillips is on the brink of earning a FF Knighthood joining the likes of Lord Loftus, Sir Harry & Sir Harry 2.0. He was sensational against Croatia and I'm sure has cast a lot of doubters wrong about his potential status in the squad. Sterling bags a goal in his own backyard (Literally) It's a must-win coming up for Wales against Turkey or it means they have to beat a very strong looking Italy side, which will be an uphill battle. Scotland miss out on a perfect return to international finals by losing 0-2 to Czech Republic, what a superb goal from Schick! Huge thanks to both Ruffneck Scarves and The BGN FN for their continued support.

Chair Emma Congreve. Fraser of Allander Institute Guests Sir Harry Burns, Professor of Global Public Health at the University of StrathclydeProfessor Graeme Roy, Director of the Fraser of Allander InstituteTimestamps[0:00] Introduction [Emma][] What's your take on how this crisis has unfolded? [Sir Harry][2:12] Is it uncommon to see this level of restrictions in pandemics?[4:16] What will the damage be to the economy? [Graeme][9:09] This crisis will affect households differently. Are there health implications to shutting down the economy? What does this mean for inclusive growth? [Sir Harry][14:56] What economic questions does the crisis raise in the short, medium and long-term – for people, businesses, Government policy and international supply chains? [Graeme][21:32] What are the big questions you want policymakers to be asking for a new normal that has the interests of long term health and wellbeing at its core? [Sir Harry][26:50] Do you think one of the outcomes of this crisis might encourage a rethink of how Government policy works? [Sir Harry][29:12] Will we be moving to a new normal? [Graeme]Source

Sir Harry Oakes was an entrepreneur who earned his fortune in Canada. In the 1930s, he moved to the Bahamas. In 1939, he was granted the title of baronet after becoming a British citizen. In 1943, Sir Oakes was murdered- under very mysterious circumstances. In a story that can be compared to the game Clue, the accused was acquitted in trial. The mystery still remains- who killed Sir Harry Oakes?

There’s more to wellbeing than the absence of injury or illness, and prevention is often more effective than a cure. Could these lessons about healthcare also apply to public policy? On this week’s podcast, hosts Martyn Pearce and Sue Regan chat with a man who has spent his career at the highest levels of public policy and public health. In a wide-ranging interview, Sir Harry Burns, Scotland’s former Chief Medical Officer, discusses wellbeing, poverty, Brexit, refugees, machine learning, and the shortfalls of economic growth. Sir Harry Burns trained as a surgeon in Glasgow. He completed a Masters Degree in Public Health in 1990, became Director of Public Health for Greater Glasgow Health Board in 1994, and was Chief Medical Officer for Scotland from 2005 to 2014. He was knighted in 2011, and became Professor of Global Public Health at Strathclyde University in 2014.

Engine pioneer Sir Harry Ricardo talks about his early career, the great men who influenced him and trends in engine development. After discussing working in his Grandfather’s railway engineering company, Ricardo goes onto talk about his big opportunity, when in the middle of the First World War he designed and manufactured engines for the Army’s great new weapon, the tank. Sir Harry also discusses many of the men who he influenced his work on diesel and petrol engines for both aeroplanes and cars, such as F. W. Lanchester, Sir Robert Waley Cohen of Shell, Rudolf Diesel and Ackroyd Stuart, before giving opinions of trends in gas turbine and combustion engine development. The interview was conducted in 1961 by Rex Wailes for an article in the Institution of Mechanical Engineer's magazine, The Chartered Engineer. The podcast was edited by Mike Stanberry FRAeS and it was digitised thanks to a grant from the Royal Aeronautical Society Foundation.

There’s far too much to talk about after a scandalously good week of football, but MikeP and The Gaffer get into Sir Harry’s goal theft, the fantasy impact of the Champions League results and who to target for the remainder of the season.

Voodoo. Gangsters. A family feud. All were possible factors in the 1943 murder of Sir Harry Oakes, the richest man in the Bahamas. And it only got more complicated when the Duke of Windsor became personally involved in the investigation, bringing in foreign investigators. After following a botched investigation and shoddy court case, Carter and Wenndy consider Oakes’ son-in-law, his friend, and even a Nazi as suspects. 

No one succeeds without ruffling a few feathers, and baronet Sir Harry Oakes was no exception. Oakes made a fortune off his gold mines, but in 1943 he was found burnt to a crisp in his own bed. Carter and Wenndy examine Oakes’ meteoric success and brutal end.

This is an archive edition of Desert Island Discs. What follows is what was said about the programme at the time: Sue Lawley's castaway this week has celebrated more than 50 years as a professional performer - he's the comedian and singer Harry Secombe. At 76, he can still hit the cruel Cs, although these days he turns puce with the effort. He can still make an audience laugh itself silly and numbers Prince Charles among his many fans. He's most definitely the best raspberry-blower in the business. Today he recalls the early days of The Goon Show with Spike Milligan, Peter Sellers and Michael Bentine. He remembers the nights spent in review alongside those Windmill girls dressed only in beads - "and most of those were sweat". And he describes how presenting Highway and Songs of Praise has left him feeling humble.
