A History of the World in 100 Objects tells two million years of history through 100 items from the 's collection.

The final 100th object, chosen by the British Museum, needs to be an object that tells the story of the ingenuity and the challenges that shape humanity in the 21st century.

A shortlist of five objects has been already compiled and will be revealed on A History Of The World - The Contenders, broadcast at 9am on 8, 9, 11, 12 and 13 October on Radio 4.

"It has changed everybody's life," but adds, "when it goes wrong, when it breaks down you suddenly panic, you have nervous breakdowns and then you have to find the very youngest person in the room because they can always fix it better than you can."

Stephen Fry has suggested his 100th object.

Writer, presenter, actor and technophile suggests a surprising object for inclusion. Watch his suggestion here.
