The Silly History Boys bring history to life through comedy, storytelling and adventure.
Interview with Tom Fermor aka Tombo
Lichfield Radio is delighted to welcome The Silly History Boys Show to our schedule and incredibly grateful to the team for allowing us to share their adventures with our listeners. Part history lesson, part comedy adventure, and part radio drama, The Silly History Boys bring the past to life in a way that’s fun, engaging and completely unlike anything you experienced in the classroom. Through a blend of storytelling, larger-than-life characters, myths, legends and laugh-out-loud moments, they take listeners on unforgettable journeys through history. Whether you’re a curious youngster discovering the past for the first time or an adult who still loves a good story, we encourage you to dive in and enjoy a history lesson like no other. Educational, entertaining and wonderfully silly, The Silly History Boys Show proves that history doesn’t have to be boring.
Join Pear Bear, Tombo, BobBob and Bilbo as they charge headlong into the past, on Lichfield Radio.
