They can choose anything from an item, to a memory, a film or even a country. Four of them are things they want to preserve but one has to be something they’re happy to bury and never have to think about again. Hosted by Michael Fenton Stevens. Podcast of the Week in The Times, The Guardian and The Radio Times. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
