A deep dive into history as and through historical fiction with Chelle and RK.
As we noted in the actual episode, it was pathbreaking TV for its time, and it's still eminently watchable.

I think you can find it on YouTube as a series of clips?

We had some technical difficulties in recording and editing this episode. Advanced apologies for the awkward pauses and the lack of our usual intro/outro. We're still a work in progress in that sense, so please bear with us.

Wolf Hall is the first book in Mantel's Cromwell trilogy, and along with its sequel, Bring Up the Bodies, it was adapted into a BBC series and featured a truly brilliant performance from Mark Rylance in the title role. #wolfhall #hilarymantel #historicalfiction

We're getting ready to record our next episode, where we'll be talking about the Tudors (finally!) via Hilary Mantel's epic Wolf Hall. Watch this space!
