Ep 260 - The Messy Legend of Dick Turpin


Listen Later

Ep 260 is loose! And this week it's the tale of that dashing highwayman Dick Turpin...but WAS he all that dashing?

Who was this masked myth? What was the real story behind his crimes? And what make-up do you wear in the woods?

The secret ingredient is...some very villainous rum!
