Episode description as stored
<p>We all know the story of Pompeii: the Roman town reduced to ash when Mount Vesuvius erupted. Roughly two-thousand years later, archaeologists have been able to uncover the stories of its victims. What do we know of the lives of this city's inhabitants? Who were they? And what do we know about their terrible final moments?</p> <p>Today, Anthony and Maddy are joined by ancient historian Dr Jess Venner, whose book ‘<em>The Lost Voices of Pompeii</em>’ will be published in April 2026.</p> <p>Edited by Tim Arstall. Produced by Tomos Delargy. Senior Producer is Freddy Chick.</p> <p>You can now watch After Dark on Youtube! <a href="http://www.youtube.com/@afterdarkhistoryhit" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><u>www.youtube.com/@afterdarkhistoryhit</u></a></p> <p>Sign up to History Hit for hundreds of hours of original documentaries, with a new release every week and ad-free podcasts.
