    May 19 2025
    In 1153, an extraordinary event occurs in a picturesque English village. Two children suddenly appear... as if by magic. From a distance they look quite ordinary, but they wear unfamiliar clothes, speak an unrecognisable language and, strangest of all, have bright green skin. But just what might be behind the children's bizarre appearance? And, furthermore, where have they come from? Could they really be visitors from a mythical realm, or might there be another explanation? In this episode, Barry and Lora explore the legend of the Green Children of Woolpit.

    In 1989 a young mother frantically rushes her baby boy to hospital. The baby is severely ill, and hospital tests suggest he has been poisoned. Although the baby recovers, his mother instantly falls under suspicion, and when the baby suffers from the same symptoms of poisoning just weeks later she is arrested. But, if his mother is indeed guilty, she could only have poisoned her baby in a specific forty-five second window, while not actually in possession of any poison. But how?
