Tales From the Otherwood
Guest Episode: The Dragon of Wantley
The people of Wantley in South Yorkshire have a problem. A BIG problem! There's a dragon eating everything and everyone and the local knight to protect them is a foul mouthed drunk.
This is a reading of the bawdy tale as recorded by Bishop Percy's 1767 book Reliques of Ancient English Poetry and contains the rude language from the time.
Sensitive listeners or those with children might want to skip the reading of the Ballad and go straight to the chat (Skip to 12:25). This month's chat covers some historical court cases and of course..... dragons!
