Stand and Deliver! Paul talks to us of the truth about three of our most legendary highwaymen, Dick Turpin, John Nevison and James Macleane. We explore the myths and the romanticisation of criminals and thieves, and debunk much of where legend has replaced actual history. Just how far did Dick Turpin ride on Black Bess? Who really was ‘Swift Nick’ and did James Macleane manage to romp off with Liv Tyler at the end?

Filmed on location at Avoncroft Museum of Historic Buildings, in particular the 17th Century Toll House that you can see in the background..
