    63. Terror Strikes London: What did MI5 know? (Ep 2)
    Jul 8 2025
    Fifteen months before the London bombings, MI5 had seen them. They had names, photographs, and addresses. Two of the men who would carry out the 7/7 attacks had already appeared in surveillance. And then… they vanished back into the noise. In this second episode of our 7/7 series, 20 years on from the attacks, David and Gordon unravel one of the most haunting questions of the entire investigation: could the 7/7 bombings have been stopped? Through forgotten files, garbled intelligence, and missed opportunities, a chilling pattern emerges - one where small decisions, fractured systems, and scarce resources combined to let something slip through. Follow the threads of Operation Crevice, eavesdropped conversations, and badly cropped photographs. Watch as one name - Mohammad Sidique Khan - surfaces again and again, just beneath the surface. The dots were there. But no one connected them. ------------------- To sign up to The Declassified Club, go to www.therestisclassified.com.

    62. Terror Strikes London: 7/7 (Ep 1)
    Jul 6 2025
    London woke up to joy and celebration on 7 July 2005. The city had just won the 2012 Olympics. It was a glorious summer. There were parties in the streets. But, by 9am, everything had changed. Three explosions tore through the London Underground. Minutes later, a double-decker bus was ripped apart in Tavistock Square. Confusion reigned. Was it a power surge? A freak accident? Or something worse? In this opening episode of our new series on the 7/7 Bombings, David and Gordon return to the morning of the attacks as the UK’s deadliest terrorist assault unfolded in real time. Inside MI5, shock turned to dread. Who had done this? Were more attacks coming? And how could no one have seen it coming? This is the story of how a day of celebration turned into a national trauma. And how, in the middle of the chaos, Britain’s intelligence services discovered the threat wasn’t from outside... but from within. ------------------- To sign up to The Declassified Club, go to ⁠www.therestisclassified.com⁠.

    61. The Truth About UFOs: Whistleblowers, Warplanes, and Worlds Unknown (Ep 4)
    Jul 1 2025
    For years, the term UFO conjured images of tin foil hats and elaborate cover-ups. But with recent official reports from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence detailing hundreds of UAP sightings, including objects that remain stationary in high winds or manoeuvre in strange ways, the conversation has fundamentally changed. What accounts for this new era of openness, and what are these "true anomalies" that continue to baffle experts? From sophisticated Chinese spy balloons caught floating over the continental US to the persistent question of advanced foreign adversary systems, the latest wave of UAP sightings mirrors Cold War-era fears of rival technologies. Yet, even as 70% of recent reports are attributed to balloons and 8% to birds , a stubborn 5% defy explanation. Listen as Gordon and David conclude their series on UFOs and secret government programs. They'll explore why the military is now actively encouraging pilots to report UAPs , and debate whether today's unexplained phenomena are next-generation military platforms, foreign intelligence, or indeed, something "that we don't yet understand... a different form of life." ------------------- To sign up to The Declassified Club, go to www.therestisclassified.com or click this ⁠⁠⁠link⁠⁠⁠.
