A short look at magic within the Mabinogion and then one of the shortest tales, the truely magical Lludd and Llevelys, where we see the naming of London, dragons, magicians and demons in trumpets. Sit back, grab yourself a drink and enjoy the tales.

Season 6 Episode 3: Where did that k come from?

In this episode I look into where the word magic comes from, where the k comes from and various types, forms and terms associated with magic, such as Black magic versus white, left hand versus right hand path, folk and ceremonial magic. Fun for all the family.
