55. Dame Alice Kyteler - Ireland's First Witch

Dame Alice Kyteler was the first woman to be officially charged for the crime of witchcraft in Ireland, and maybe all of Europe... Let Katie tell you all about the tale of Alice, the first witch of Ireland, as her voice slowly but surely disintegrates because yes, she did manage to catch a bad winter bug (and also sing far to loudly to Kate Bush)

orld Pageant is a historic event that you've probably never heard of. On November 20th 1970, worlds collided with rigging accusations, bombs, thinly-veiled racism and the second wave of feminism, all topped off with a sparkly tiara.
