Today's episode is on the Catterick skeleton, the excavated remains of person buried in 4th century CE Roman Britain, identified by archaeologists and the press as a 'transvestite'. Join us to hear about what a bead found in the ground can tell us about gender in local jewellery trends, how press reactions to the skeleton have changed over time, and a bonus ancient Roman board game interlude.
