Mary Beard on Watson Virginian Graffiti

Last week archaeology and particularly classics made the headlines. An olive oil jar discovered in Spain had two lines of Virgil written on it. To find out why this is extraordinary who better to turn to than our own Mary Beard classic editor of the TLS. She's written about it for us on her blog but we've got her here in person to shed light on it all. Mike tells us about the lives of pop manufacturers in the ancient world and Michael Hughes on Malcolm MacArthur and the brutal murders he committed in 1980s Ireland.
