Welcome Extra Historians to Lies, where we talk about the mistakes we made and the details we couldn't quite squeeze into our Eleanor of Aquitaine Series. With questions like, Why wasn't Eleanor in the Robin Hood stories? Did Eleanor really dress as an amazon during the Crusade? And Why were there so many odd deaths like tripping over a pig during this time period?

Recommended Reading for this series:

On Robin Hood; I have heard that the original "resident monk" in the Merry Men was Will Scarlett, who had been exiled from a monastery.

I want to see a series on the holocaust. It's important to remember the terrible human suffering that took place during WW2.
