Series 1 Episode 11: Middlesex

In this episode of The Three Ravens Podcast, Eleanor and Martin head to Middlesex, which most people now call 'London.'

With the episode released on St Dympna's Day, they talk about her life, which - spoilers - was pretty rough, as well as Toad Fairs and Franklin Days, all before tucking into a giant-sized helping of history and folklore from Middlesex - from Livery Companies and inter-dimensional portals to Old Father Thames, the vanishing village of Elswick, and much more besides. Then it's time for the main event: Eleanor's telling of "Brutus of Troy and the Giant Gogmagog."
