This is the history of Wales as you've never heard it before: a terrible tale of Norman invaders, Viking sea-raiders, cruel Celts, miserable miners and battling bards. Find out why druids split humans in half, how the Normans outwitted the Welsh with a lump of ham - and how an angry army of Welsh mums fought off the French once and for all! It's all horribly exciting!
