Available for over a year

What The Bleep Happened Here? Episode 2 Richard Tisdale and Chris Langston will be looking at a toy cannon, buried in a Shropshire field, that once fired miniature shots — a glimpse into how children were shaped by the shadow of the Napoleonic wars. We’ll hear about an actual lock of hair that belonged to Napoleon - gifted to a Shropshire soldier and now kept at the Soldiers Of Shropshire Museum at Shrewsbury Castle. And why, if you look hard enough, you might find a bent sixpence, left at a gate or stile — a quiet token of love from the time of William the Third.
