Being the kind of slapdash worker who isn’t always at the desk by 9 a.m., I happened to catch a discussion about Boudica on Radio 4’s  ‘In Our Time’ yesterday.

How do we know what we know about her, and is what we know likely to be true? Did she exist at all? Why are we still so fascinated by her today?

Thanks to iplayer there’s a chance to hear some thoughtful answers to these questions  – and much more – via the Radio 4 website.
