This week on That Time When we continue with the story of Joseph Grimaldi, the Father of Modern Clowning. Last week we looked at his early life and ascent to the part of The Clown, this week we look at his prolific career and how he came to become the icon of the clown for years to come. We also have Amelia explaining a pun to Barnaby that he completely missed... he is still a little annoyed about it. *Content Note: there is a brief discussion of suicide toward the end of the episode, in case it is a topic you might find sensitive.
