Join Natalie Haynes and guests for half an hour of comedy and the Classics from the BBC Radio Theatre in London.

Natalie is a reformed comedian who is a little bit obsessive about Ancient Greece and Rome.

Today she stands up in the name of Greek writer Lucian. Expect to hear about the possible origins of ‘The Life of Brian’, the possible inspiration for Mickey Mouse and a trip to the moon about a thousand years before NASA.
