It's Christmas! As many are searching for the latest gadgets to give as gifts, or wondering which party games might go down well after Christmas dinner, we look at how the Victorians answered those festive dilemmas. We also explore what the Victorians were reading at Christmas in periodicals like All the Year Round, edited by Charles Dickens. [Warning: we would not suggest trying all of these party games at home!]

A huge thank you to all of our viewers and listeners in 2023. We wish you all a very merry Christmas! Here is a little victorian gift from us! https://imgur.com/CVwYgVu

In this episode we delve into the dark world of the double brain and to celebrate the birthday of Robert Louis Stevenson, we do it by looking at The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde! Is it worth releasing your ‘bad’ side? Victorian science suggests not!
