Histories Of The Unexpected

In this latest episode, the Unexpected duo, Professor James Daybell and Dr Sam Willis get all festive again and offer another Christmas special on the unexpected history of DONKEYS! Which is all about A.A. Milne, Eeyore and the history of gloom, WWI and military transportation, nativities and childhood memories! It's also all about the cheesy Italian-American Christmas song, Dominick the Donkey, the architecture of medieval cities, and of course the journey from Nazareth to Bethlehem, and dragons at the birth of Jesus!
