About this listen

Before England had a name, the British Isles were shaped by nature, early human ingenuity, and foreign empires. This episode explores the evolution of Albion from the end of the Ice Age to the fall of Roman Britain. Listeners are taken through the lost world of Doggerland, the building of Stonehenge, the rise of Celtic tribes, and the transformative impact of Roman conquest. From Boudica’s rebellion to the construction of Hadrian’s Wall, we see how Britannia flourished under Rome—only to be left fractured when the empire withdrew. As the lights of Roman civilization dimmed, a new era awaited beyond the horizon.
