Series Introduction: Cumbria - History, Tale and Song

In this, our series introduction, we look at some snap shots of Cumbrian history, talk to Taffy Thomas - the UKs first story telling laureate about Cumbrian folktales and Dr Sue Allan, an expert in Cumbrian music. We hear our first Cumbrian folktale 'The Last Wolf of England' and discuss perceptions of the North. 

Our interviews have been recorded over the phone as of lockdown rules.
