12 LUG 2021 · All across the East of England, there are small cemeteries with completely new material culture. it looks like it's from North-West Europe and represents the arrival, so well documented, of the Anglo-Saxon people.

16 MAG 2021 · All around the Irish sea, small stone chapels still remain. Some are amongst the sand dunes, some are now part of larger monasteries and some of them are on golf courses. All of them share an origin story: the beginnings of the Celtic church.
In this episode, we explore the origins of Celtic Christianity, how it remained vibrant and developing while being cut off from other Christian communities in Europe. We explore the nature of ritual and religion and lay the groundwork for much later in our season when we discuss the conversion of the Anglo-Saxons. Oh, and the episode is inspired by a Time Team episode.

13 MAR 2021 · A king who lies beneath a mountain waiting to return when his land needs him most... which apparently wasn't World War 2, the Great Recession or Coronavirus - how much worse could things become?
Anyway, King Arthur. The Once and Future King, husband to Guinevere, best friend of Lancelot, student of Merlin has his origins in the 400s CE and what with his close ties to Tintagel, it felt right that we take a bit of time to dwell on King Arthur's early medieval origins. More than that though, we ask, why do we keep telling stories of this Dark Age warlord?

8 FEB 2021 · Join me on the waves around Tintagel as we discuss the kingdom that arose in Cornwall in the 5th century and, rather than becoming German or British decided to adopt a distinctly continental identity.
We also uncover the nature of trade in pre-capitalist societies and try and acknowledge some of the biases we bring to our interpretations of the past.
