Welcome to The Quilkin. Benjo Taylor - who is not an historian - presents a series of curious stories from history. Which is challenging. Because he's not an historian.
Benjo returns, somewhat seasick, to finish the story of The Medusa. Discretion advised - this part describes some rather gruesome events.

After a briefish hiatus, Benjo returns to tell a story that shows humanity in a very positive light indeed. Part one of two.

In the first ever - and possibly last ever - episode, Benjo tells the story of the ship with three names. Corrections:
The instruction plaques were in Turkish rather than Arabic.
There may have been more than two ferrets.
