Written by Manda Scott.

Read by Colette O'Neil.

Short story series in which leading historical authors write about a particular moment from the past, one which went on to influence the future.

Manda Scott's story takes us back to 61AD and imagines the mood of the Eceni elders on the eve of the final battle of the Boudican revolt - which came tantalisingly close to ridding Britain of the Roman legions.

Produced by Kirsteen Cameron. Show less
