Astonishing discovery. Roman Britain ping.

I was watching a doc on the development of England.

I’m thinking why did England, this cold bitter island way up and away from Rome, become the most powerful country in the world?

You see the Romans, then much later the Saxons, then the Vikings, then the Saxons again, and the Vikings again, and the Scots and the Irish kinda stay out of it.

I guess it’s the kind of barbaric type A people that conquered and reconquered her.

Then the tens of thousands of people hanged, drawn and quartered, noblemen and women beheaded.

IN SUMMARY, what the hell were the Romans doing up there, catching fish?

Where is Phil Harding when you need him? I guess since Alice Roberts is all grown up now, she will have to do the heavy lifting, at least in front of the cameras.
