This episode of Big Blend Radio's "English Connection" show with Glynn Burrows focuses on the life and legend of Boadecia who was known as the Queen of the Iceni, a tribe in Norfolk, England. She led a massive uprising against The Romans around AD 60-61 and she died (it is thought by poisoning herself), after her army was defeated. Read Glynn's article about her, including why and how she has so many variations to the spelling and pronunciation of her name: https://blendradioandtv.com/listing/boadicea-queen-of-the-iceni/
