Episode description

This week Jem takes a subject which may bring joy to your heart, or, if you are anything like me, brings a sense of impending doom - as when I hear the word I foresee a lovely Christmas afternoon descending into squabbling and animosity - Monopoly!

What seems like a relatively simple board game takes us on a journey through the history of economics, right back to prehistoric times!
