There’s a wildlife theme as Jo finds out how a story about bears in the Forest of Dean 130 years ago has inspired writers over the decades. Professor Adam Hart from the University of Gloucestershire is back doing some more myth busting – this time on ants, wasps and spiders. In the Festival Flashback you’ll hear Jo’s interview with Dr Helen Scales at the 2018 Cheltenham Science Festival who tells Jo about the incredible world of octopuses. And Jo adds into her virtual museum the most unusual item yet – a whale shoulder bone that’s found at Dr Jenner’s House in Berkeley.
