Rex Factor

Summary: Rex Factor is a light-hearted look at all the kings and queens of England and Scotland. One by one we review every monarch by a number of factors - success in battle, notoriety, justice - before giving them our final judgement and deciding whether they have the Rex Factor!

 68. The Play-Off Draw | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:24:55

After 67 episodes, three and a half years and numerous broken bones (all belonging to Ali) we have reviewed all the Kings and Queens of England from Alfred the Great to Elizabeth II. We were left with 18 monarchs standing tall and proud atop the Rex Factor mountain but no mountain is big enough for England's greatest monarchs so we are going to decide who is the greatest of them all. In this episode, we explain how the play-offs will work, how the monarchs will be drawn and how YOU will help us decide! While the play-offs are underway, check out our new blog https://rexfactor.wordpress.com for more information.

 67. Elizabeth II: The Review (Part 3/3) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:26:14

After three years we finally complete the journey "From Alfred the Great to Elizabeth the Second" as in this episode we review the reign of Elizabeth II. Given that the Queen is still reigning, these are effectively provisional scores as we don't yet have sufficient perspective on how certain events will be viewed in 30 years time, nor the full knowledge of what the Queen's role has been in the affairs of the nation and the world behind the scenes. We will also not be considering whether or not she has the Rex Factor (it's just too soon!) but there's plenty to enjoy in our final episode of this series before we return for the play-offs in 2014!

 History According to Ali | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:06:04

While Ali continues to recuperate from his bicycle injury, some Rex Factor fans have provided something to fill the audio void: History According to Ali. Trawling through every episode of Rex Factor, they have picked out some of Ali's best moments and put them all together with summaries for every monarch from Alfred the Great to George VI. Ali is coming on well and looking forward to Queen Elizabeth II, but for now, enjoy this retrospective! (P.S. Listeners new to Rex Factor may find this slightly confusing, so start with one of our earlier monarch review episodes!)

 On Hold | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 00:04:13

Unfortunately a nasty bike accident for Ali means that there's a bit of a delay in reviewing Queen Elizabeth II. I'm sure you'll all want to wish Ali well and if you want to send him a message then you can contact us in the following ways: email - rexfactorpodcast@hotmail.com twitter - @rexfactorpod facebook - the Rex Factor Podcast facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/rexfactorpodcast The plan is to gather all your 'get well soon' messages together and give Ali one big glorious Rex Factor card, which I'm sure will cheer him up no end. Long or short, funny or tear-jerking, it would be really good if you could drop us a line and show your support.
