88. The Princess And The Pea (World Exclusive)
Episode description
We're proud to present The Princess And The Pea by the Brothers Grimm for the first time ever in the English language!
Hidden in the Grimms' 5th edition of fairy tales, their version was never translated into English - until now! A crack team of translators has helped us to bring this episode to life, we can't thank you enough.
After the story, we explore what it's trying to tell us before heading into the past, where we trace its origins beyond Hans Christian Andersen to medieval Kashmir.
