The Hundred Years' War Part III: the Maid of Orléans
Manage episode 430910514 series 3486525
As we continue our series on the Hundred Years' War, Armagnac cause has never seemed so hopeless. An Englishman sits on the French throne, the Scottish army has been crushed, and now the Armagnac stronghold of Orléans is about to fall.
That is, until the emergence of the most unlikely hero: a charismatic peasant girl, who claims to speak to angels.
In this episode, we chart the rise of Joan of Arc, from a normal working-class life in north-west France, to the self-appointed saviour of the nation.
