You might have learned about Richard the Lionheart in school (or from Disney’s Robin Hood), but how much do you know about his opponent, the legendary Saladin?
Why does Saladin have such an enduring reputation as a good guy? Host Greg Jenner is joined by comedian Maria Shehata and historian Professor Jonathan Phillips. It’s history for people who don’t like history!
Produced by Dan Morelle
Scripted and researched by Emma Nagouse, assisted by Emily Greenwell.
A Muddy Knees Media production for BBC Radio 4
