I have enjoyed physical relations with the woman who gave birth to you on a number of occasions.

Additional fun fact: it’s haunted by the ghost of Jack the Ripper.
Reports about the number of ghosts in the castle vary, but there are believed to be around nine, including Thomas Bowes-Lyon, who was said to have been removed from the line of succession after he was born with a severe deformity.
While official records state that he died the day he was born, on October 21, 1821, it is rumoured that he survived and was kept hidden away by his family until he died in the 1920s, having been only allowed out to exercise at night.
Depictions of the mysterious earl also emerged in time. Jacynth Hope-Simpson in her book Who Knows? suggested the boy may have suffered a genetic defect given the child’s parents were cousins first removed.
Ghost writer Peter Underwood suggested Thomas had wasted arms and legs and resembled “an enormous flabby egg.”
It’s a great series - one-off documentaries which allow people the space to follow up on a story and try interesting ways to tell it. I may not be gripped by every episode but that feels like they are doing their job and delivering an eclectic mix.
That’s it, if they don’t improve the contract they aren’t going to get many takers.
It’s Interesting that this coincides with a change of management - looks like they are rethinking their bad decisions. I wonder if they could tempt Karen Berger and Shelly Bond back.
