Episode description

Join Natalie Haynes and guests for half an hour of comedy and the Classics from the BBC Radio Theatre in London.

Natalie is a reformed comedian who is a little bit obsessive about Ancient Greece and Rome.

Now she's standing up in the name of the Roman lawyer, politician and orator Cicero.

Maybe we'd all love him a bit more if Shakespeare had had a nicer Latin teacher. Expect a lot of gossip from a thousand years ago.

With special guests:

Lawyer Mark Stephens Professor Llewelyn Morgan

Producer: Mary Ward-Lowery

First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in August 2017.
