About this listen

The Things About Us examines British identity: what are we like, what do we think we're like, and what's in the gap in between?This week, Mark looks at the land of our nation: who owns it, what can we do on it? And with the help of the SOAS's Guy Standing, he looks at the most significant document you've probably never heard of: The Charter of the Forest. The Things About Us is written and presented by Mark Thomas. It was recorded on tour at the Darwen Library Theatre, and at King's Place as part of the London Podcast Festival. It was produced by Susan McNicholas and Ed Morrish. Thanks to Lush for their support, and to Dr. Feelgood for the use of their music.If you want to say hello on social media, Mark Thomas is @markthomasinfo.Mark's photo is by Steve Ullathorne (ullathorne.photoshelter.com/index) and the design is by Greg Matthews (designbygreg.uk/)
