History: The Interesting Bits

Travel back in time with us as we reveal the funny, disturbing, tragic, ridiculous, fascinating and, just occasionally, preposterous stories that are all too often hidden under piles of dry facts, dates, monarchs, politicians, wars and treaties. Such as the spy tried for witchcraft, the president with radioactive urine and the man that sold the Eiffel Tower... twice!

Throw out your dusty old history books and skip over the boring bits in the brand new series, History: The Interesting Bits, Mondays at 8pm, only on National Geographic UK.

The UK home of National Geographic. Inspiring the explorer in everyone.
