The Real Patron Saints: 4: St George

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

Ian Hislop concludes his history of the patron saints of Britain and Ireland.
The Golden Jubilee and the England football team's exploits in Japan were good news for St George's Cross flag-sellers but what do we know about the man himself? Ian Hislop finds himself chasing dragons, crusaders and a very large joint of roast beef in his search for the real St George.
