This week we are joined by Norfolk Historian and researcher from University of East Anglia, Dr. Danny Buck who wants to get a few things off his chest like 'WE DON'T BURN WITCHES AND THEY'RE NOT ALL OLD HERBALISTS'.
We'll be talking about ducking and water trials, the background to witch panics, 17th Century attitudes to religion and community, and bizarrely, Herring Pirates.
