Decisive Battles: Boudicca: Warrior Queen, starts NOW (U.S. 9 p.m. EST)

Decisive Battles from the History Channel (www.historychannel.com/decisivebattles) starts now in Eastern U.S. Description from their website:

"Boudicca: Warrior Queen.
Airs on Friday, October 8 @ 9:00PM ET/PT

Julius Caesar invaded Britain in 55 and 54 BC, gaining submission of the six eastern Celtic tribes. As the Roman Empire's farthest flung province, its merchants enjoyed a healthy trade with Roman Gaul, and for about 100 years, the tribes were mainly left alone. But in 60 AD, a warrior queen named Boudicca rose in revolt. When her husband died, Boudicca became Queen of the Iceni. Roman administrators tried to control the Iceni by appropriating their land and disarming the tribe. After the Romans flogged Boudicca and raped her two daughters, she raised a mighty army believed to number over 100,000 and took the fight to the Romans. TVPG"

Bon appetit! ~:cheers:

Dang - There's almost no mention of RTW in this half hour show, even though 70% of its airtime is RTW graphics. (They even use RTW music as background music.) RTW & CA get a one-second mention halfway into the credits, but who watches credits? CA should've worked a deal where they get, like, at least a teeny 15-second spot at the end of these DB shows. Oh well. Back to conquering Gaul! ~:cheers:
