In 1973, two children exploring the marshes of Sandown on the Isle of Wight report a strange encounter. They hear a wailing sound that leads them to a seven foot figure in clown-like clothing, calling itself “All Colours Sam.” What follows is a brief, unsettling exchange, an invitation into a metal hut, and claims that there are others like it. In this episode, Elizabeth explores the folklore that has grown around the case, from possible explanations to later alleged encounters and why the story still refuses to fade.

Elizabeth also chats about buying a new sewing machine for her other creative projects...
