Arthur's Seat in Edinburgh, of course.

Mike, do you know which British city has Arthur's seal, Arthur's coat of arms on their modern civic seal? I want to say Winchester. It's a good guess. They've got the round table, right? Yeah, exactly. I would guess Bath because, you know, we talked about the Bath button. It's none of those. Aberystwyth. No, it's... It's Hull. Is it really?

Viking Hull.

Yes, Kingston upon Hull.

So it's time now for the nuance window. This is where Mike and I sit quietly at the round table for two minutes with our many, many, many other nights. And we give Dr. Mary two minutes to tell us something we need to know. So my stopwatch is ready. Without much further ado, the nuance window, please.

Amazing. Thank you so much. There you go. To King Arthur. He's the once and future king because actually he keeps coming back.

First night, not so good.

Exactly, exactly. So what do you know now? It's time now for the So What Do You Know Now? This is our quickfire quiz for Mike to see how much he has learned. Are you feeling confident? I don't think I am feeling confident.

I feel like you contributed very well to the overall conversation, so I'm not going to hold it against you if this is where you fall down. So, ten questions. Here we go. Question one. Which English chronicler wrote A History of the Kings of Britain, inspiring others to create Arthurian romance literature? Your friend and mine, Geoffrey of Monmouth. It was. Question two.
