Have you read the comments to the original article?
Some character called Christopher Moore gives the following 'facts' about Boudica that you probably didn't know:
1. She had three partners. Her first was a woman and the other two were men. Prasutagus was her third.
2. She sacked London, Canterbury and St. Albans.
3. She wiped out an entire Roman legion.
4. She was killed in battle in Wiltshire, starving because the Romans had destroyed the cattle and crops.
5. She drank nettle soup before battle.
He comments that movie companies are often accused of bending the truth but they could at least do some research. I wonder where he did his!

Strive mightily, but eat and drink as friends.
