Helen of Troy

Bettany Hughes embarks on an epic journey across the Eastern Mediterranean to find out the truth about Helen of Troy.

She unravels the reality from the myths and puts flesh on "the face that launched a thousand ships".
The story of Helen and her love affair with Paris, culminating in the bloody and disastrous conflict of the Trojan War, has been told and retold over the centuries.
Bettany sails across what Homer called "the wine dark seas" to discover how a real woman like Helen would have dominated life in the sumptuous and mysterious royal courts of ancient Greece three thousand years ago
