This episode sees Matt and Steve go back to 1980, dredging up their memories as sub-10 year olds of the Iranian Embassy siege in London.

Ben MacIntryre is back with another epic movie-like recounting of the story from those who were there, taking us from the domestic to the global, with lots of snooker thrown in.

What would you like to see him tackle next?
