Why Did The Roman Empire Collapse?

How does an empire spanning three continents and half a millennium fall apart?
In the final episode of our series on the Roman Empire, we're joined by Professor Peter Heather to unravel Rome's collapse - from the chaos of the third-century crisis to the deposition of the last Western emperor. Why did an empire at its economic peak unravel so quickly? And why did the East survive when the West did not?
Produced by James Hickmann and edited by Dougal Patmore.
