Three questions for… Mary Beard

Mary Beard is professor of classics at Cambridge University. Last autumn she published the book of her blog A Don’s Life. In the book she reflects on the lot of a classics don at an elite university, the way in which the ancient world is portrayed in the media, the purpose of education and much else besides.

After recording an audio interview in Mary’s kitchen, George Miller made this short film in which he asked Mary just three questions – no tricks or traps, but no forewarning either.
