This week we keep our discussion close to home by talking about... well home. We take you on a quick tour through the history of King's Lynn, a small town on the Norfolk coast that has a quite a large impact. We round it off, as always, with a ridiculous death and this week we throw in a local legend.  

As always, here are our sources:
