Crown, Cross and Gown: Oxford's Thousand Years of Power

In our second episode on Oxford, Daniel Gooch and Liam McGrath explore the political and military role of Oxford through the ages. 

Oxford Part One provided an introduction to Oxford and its university.  In this episode we learn about how power came to Oxford, through politics, the church and through those who studied and worked at the university.  Oxford provides pivotal moments in British history, not least The Reformation and The English Civil War. This episode provides a sweep across nearly 1000 years of political history found in one small city.
