Hello Greg here, just popping in to say that this is a radio edit of the episode, which

means it's a bit shorter and some of the naughty stuff has been removed, so it's a bit more

appropriate for family listening.

If you want to hear the full-length versions scroll down to the original episode, further

back in our feed.

Thanks very much, enjoy the show!

Hello and welcome to your Dead To Me, the history podcast for everyone.

My name is Greg Jenner, I'm a public historian, author and I'm the chief nerd on the BBC

comedy show Horrible Histories.

And you might have heard my other radio foreshow, Home School History, but that's mostly

for the kids.

This shows a little bit different.

Every week I sit down with a top comedian and a top historian to have an informative and

fun chat about a different bit of global history.

And we make sure to keep it light and amusing, like a spacehopper filled with facts.

And today we are winding back the clock nearly 2,000 years to get to grips with the angriest

woman in ancient Britain.

Yes, it's Queen Budica, who went toe-to-toe with the might of Rome and very nearly made

them look stupid.

And joining me in the studio to chat about her life and her massive rebellion are two extraordinary

women in their own right, though hopefully they will refrain from burning down culture

stuff, at least for the duration of the episode.
