Hallowe'en Special - The Devil in the Landscape

There are hundreds of places in Britain named after the Devil, many with their own explanatory folktale.  We look at the question, given that surely the Devil is a very scary concept, why did people make up stories that made him look a fool?

Cameo 36 - 1492 And All That - Esteban

A truly extraordinary story of survival.  They set off for Florida with 610 people and 80 horses, in the end there were just four people and no horses    ...   so maybe survival isn't the word.

1492 And All That - After 1492

What happened to the Americas after Columbus inflicted himself on the continent.....and what effect did that have on Europe?  We'll give you a clue, it worked out a lot better for one of them than the other.

S1 - 056 - 1492 And All That - Christopher Columbus Part 4

You can't keep a good man down.  Last time we killed him off and yet he rises again.  This time we try to explain some of the beliefs that sent Columbus on his trip in the first place and we look at how he has been viewed throughout history and now.

S1 - 055 - 1492 And All That - Christopher Columbus - Part 3

Columbus' third and fourth voyages.  Within very few years of finding the Indies, the Spanish are tearing themselves apart.  Columbus has an ignominious journey home followed by a lengthy stay on a paradise island.

S1 - 054 - 1492 And All That - Christopher Columbus - Part 2

Columbus' second voyage.  Please be warned, this is a very sad subject and the episode involves some distressing scenes.  Please make sure you're in the right frame of mind before listening.  We felt that it was important to show the whole grim story.

S1 - 053b - 1492 And All That - Christopher Columbus - Part 1B

We now see what happens when Columbus and his men arrive at the Indies and meet the local inhabitants....and I am sure that it is all good!

S1 - 053 - 1492 And All That - Christopher Columbus - Part 1A

This is the first of ten episodes on the ramifications of Columbus' voyage.

Columbus.  A famous - infamous - name.  A man who splits opinion ... although on this podcast we were unanimous in our opinion of him.  This episode was so long we split it into two.

P.S. I later found out why Columbus called the people he met Indians.  Answer in Part Four.

S1 - 052 Cecily of York

One of the many daughters of Edward IV and Elizabeth Woodville.  She could tell us so much about what it was like to be in sanctuary, the fate of the Princes in the Tower and whether Perkin Warbeck was who he said he was.  She won't...but she could.
