Creating Churchill offers a fresh perspective on the life and legacy of the soldier, writer, and war leader Winston Churchill. As we approach the 150th anniversary of his birth on 30th November, 2024, this podcast invites listeners to look beyond the now familiar bulldog image and rediscover the real Churchill, his strengths and his weaknesses, through the eyes of contemporaries he collaborated or clashed with.
Join Cambridge University historian David Reynolds and documentary producer Russell Barnes as they explore how Churchill’s extraordinary career and personality were shaped by relationships with the key figures in his life: friends, rivals, enemies and family.
In this introduction, David and Russell discuss why they’re making this podcast series and the need to see the real, historical Churchill again behind the myths he and others created about his life.
