100 Novels That Shaped Our World - according to the BBC

I love watching quiz shows and in one of the latest episodes the contestants had to name titles from this list. I hadn't heard of it so I became curious and had to google it.

All the panellists have some sort of literary background:
Stig Abell, Syima Aslam, Juno Dawson, Kit de Waal, Mariella Frostrup and Alexander McCall Smith.

So, here is the list of all the novels they chose. I have read a few.
