My daughter and I thought we’d have a go at doing a video about the early period of the kingdom of Wessex. Someone at one point suggested I upload a photo of myself. This is too hideous a prospect, but there is a 1 second clip of my back walking into a crowd in this video – a special mention on the podcast goes to anyone who can spot who I am, and can explain why my trousers always look the way they do.

Cick here for The Arrival of the House of Wessex video on You Tube, or just view it below.
