Comedian and quizzer Paul Sinha returns to shine a light on the important historical moments that you never got taught at school.

He also explains why so much of what you did learn is wrong.

There will also, as ever, be puns.

He begins with a look at the sheer volume of history created since series two, including Brexit, every celebrity in the world seeming to pass away, and the election of Donald Trump.

He also assesses the contributions to American culture of immigrants, including iconic clothing, iconic entertainment, and iconic icons.

Written and performed by Paul Sinha.

In previous series, Paul revealed how Portugal's invasion of Morocco in 1415 lead directly to the 2014 World Cup; how the 1909 launch of an Austro-Hungarian submarine prevented Dr Zhivago winning an Oscar; and the story of the black woman who refused to give up a seat on an Alabama bus ended up changing the law - no, it wasn't Rosa Parks.

Paul Sinha's History Revision won the 2016 Rose d'Or for 'Best Radio Comedy'.

Producer: Ed Morrish
