In this first episode of Season Two, Rab and Kerry take a deep dive into The Pirate Queen herself, Granuaile, as she fights, loves, gives birth in the middle of a sea battle, and finally shows Queen Elizabeth Tudor who's the real boss.
Clarification: Rab gets his dates mixed up at one point and says 1856 instead of 1586.
