Peterborough Cathedral began life as an abbey church in the seventh century. This talk explains the development of the great building, and concentrates on the painted ceiling created from 1238, which has proven difficult to decipher. The speaker's recent monograph on the cathedral for the first time identifies the characters depicted on the ceiling and explores the background to its creation, heralding its status as the greatest political billboard of the English middle ages, and throwing new light on the aftermath of Magna Carta.

Organisers of the city’s flagship events say they are “optimistic” they will be able to bounce back after they were all called off last April.
Council
chiefs said they would be doing all they could to “support the sector and its recovery
as safely and as quickly as possible.”
However
it could be months before the scale and form of the city’s cultural
extravaganza is known.
In
recent years, the summer festivals have been worth more than £300 million for
the economy.
The
Tattoo has been selling tickets for this year’s show since October. Tickets for
EIF shows normally go on sale in the spring, while the book festival usually
launches its programme in June.
Fringe
venues have been able to sell tickets as early as January in recent years,
however the final programme is not normally launched until June.
