Pound for pound, fish is small fry for the British economy – but it has long been vital to our sense of sovereignty. From skirmishes with Dutch boats to the Cod Wars and Brexit, Ros Taylor finds out why fish matter so much to us. Maritime historian Richard Blakemore and marine biologist Bryce Stewart join the show.
Richard Blakemore is an Associate Professor in social and maritime history at the University of Reading. He's the author of Enemies of All: The Rise and Fall of the Golden Age of Piracy, published by Pegasus Books.
Bryce Stewart is a senior research fellow at the Marine Biological Association.
