Published: Sept. 9, 2022, 6:46 a.m.

b'This episode we return to the Lanercost Chronicle (and a bit of Capgrave\'s Chronicle) to get some serious history concerning the fall of the last native prince of Wales, before getting some a less serious dinner party anecdote about a couple of monkeys. Much hand-wringing is also given to the appropriate pronunciation of the name Llewellyn/Llywelyn.\\n\\nToday\'s Text\\n- The Chronicle of Lanercost: 1272\\u20131346.
