THE TROUBLE WITH JESSICA

Sarah and Tom are in terrible financial trouble. On the brink of losing everything, they’ve managed to find a buyer for their stylish London home. When their best friends Richard and Beth come round for a final dinner, an uninvited old friend, Jessica, tags along.  After a seemingly trivial argument, Jessica hangs herself in the garden. Tom goes to call the police when Sarah realizes if the buyer finds out, the sale will collapse, meaning definite financial ruin. The only solution - to convince Richard and Beth to take Jessica’s body to her flat and make it look like she killed herself there. If they’re clever enough about it, what could possibly go wrong?

Roadways in the Ancient World

The Romans laid out over 250,000 miles of roads, 10,000 miles of which were here in Britain.

Steve will cover what we know about the network, how the routes were laid out and constructed, how to find lost Roman roads. And an ingenious experiment involving fungus (yes - fungus) and to emphasise the importance of good roads we’ll look, just for fun, at the salesman’s biggest problem.
