50 minutes•Room 3
Financial journalist and author Matthew Partridge goes continental in his third 'Horrible Histories for adults' style show covering some of the juiciest frauds and scandals that "made" Europe. Topics include the Scotsman who nearly bankrupted France (while creating the term 'millionaire'), and the man who forged an entire nation's currency, to the oligarch who was the most powerful man in Russia – until he installed a former cab driver as President.
