James is joined by Rear Admiral Dr Chris Parry and Professor Alexander Watson to ask what if the First Battle of Ypres in 1914 had played out differently. A conflict which began the pattern of trench warfare, perhaps it was always going to end in a bloody stalemate, yet it's consequences are significant and far reaching.

Welcome to Times Radio History Undone with James Hanson, a channel that looks back at pivotal moments and asks 'What if?'. We'll be looking at key battles, strategic decisions and political outcomes with leading historians and current military experts and tacticians to see what might have happened differently, and more importantly, what impact those differences might have had on the world today.
