Episode Synopsis

The climate around the Parthenon Marbles debate has publicly continued to warm in the last two years, with both sides seemingly moving closer towards an agreement. But that may not be the full story according to long-time advocates for the return of the Marbles in David Hill and George Vardas. The pair join Ouzo Talk for our latest instalment on the Parthenon Marbles to discuss where discussions currently are between the UK Government and Greece, and the British and Acropolis Museums. Following  a recent meeting of global associations to discuss the matter, the plot thickened with the release of an ominous statement from Greek President, Konstantinos Tassoulas, who in a Greek Government first, signalled that legal action may be on the cards. Is that where the matter is heading? Join Tom and Nick as they quiz David and George on the latest to do with the most controversial ownership battle in world culture, history and archaeology. Send us a text Support the showEmail us at [email protected] to our Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@OuzoTalkFollow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/OuzoTalkFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ouzo_talk/
