À propos de cet audio
📻 Episode 80 – The World War 2 Boffin
- The title suggests a satirical take on wartime science and the archetype of the eccentric British “boffin” (scientist/engineer).
- Episodes often mixed topical humor with absurd situations, so this likely poked fun at wartime inventions, secret weapons, or the quirks of scientific minds during WWII.
- Unfortunately, detailed synopses for individual episodes are scarce, as many recordings weren’t preserved. Some scripts survive in archives, but not all episodes are available publicly.
🔎 Why it matters
- Episodes like this capture the post-war British humor that balanced nostalgia for WWII with lighthearted parody.
- The “boffin” character became a cultural staple in Britain, representing both admiration for scientific ingenuity and gentle mockery of eccentric academics.
