:: ::

One of London's most curious bits of history this week, as we talk about London's necrotrain - a train designed to transport London's dead, plus their mourners, out to a green leafy cemetery about 25 miles out of London. Was there really an option for coffins to travel in different classes? Emily is very worries about catering - were there sandwiches?! Find out all about it here.
Plus we find out who won the Podcast Pedestal and Emily gets her sweaty hands on the wheel again for another chance to see where we will get to chat about next week.Let us know what you think on Instagram, or on our websites.
