So, what DID the Romans ever do for us?
A fascinating ‘dig’ into the past to discover what the Romans who lived in this very town got up to on a day-to-day basis. James Drummond-Murray and David Crawford White examine the newly discovered Roman villa at Itter Crescent, which reveals much about domestic existence there 2,000 years ago.

A feast for the senses
Visually glorious, fiercely intelligent, and put together with painstaking care and thorough research, the New York Met Opera’s production of Borodin’s Prince Igor is live entertainment at its very best. The vibrant tale of the nobleman who struggles to come to terms with what he can and cannot achieve is live-streamed via satellite straight from New York.
