Belle also gives us some insight into ancient medical practices - some of which we still use today! Raquel then goes on to discuss her favourite topic... lead poisoning! As well as the outrageous medical practices and "cures" that were around in the 19th century, while also having a chat about some pretty gross finds that the team have found during excavations in Melbourne, Australia. This definitely is not an episode to be missed... but we warned, viewer discretion is advised as some of it is pretty gross!  As always, we love it when we hear from you!
