In 47 BCE, Julius Caesar arrived in Egypt as a victorious general, ready to make an easy alliance with the Pharaoh. Instead, he found himself besieged in Egypt’s capital city by the very ruler who wanted to ally with him. Trapped and outnumbered, Caesar’s glory was almost cut short.

In this episode, Matt Lewis and Dr Jen Gerrish unravel the messy politics, personalities and relationships that led to Caesar’s most dangerous moment.
