Poppyland, the wide stretch of meadows and fields that runs along part of the North Norfolk coast, was the inspiration for many Victorian poets and artists. However, alongside this celebration if beauty, not a stone's throw away from the poppy fields, like the Shrieking Pits. Once deep, dark mines, now filled in with ink black water, these ponds have claimed the life of many tragic victims, whose stories have become East Anglian folklore.

We're back at UEA's media suite now (although this episode was recorded mainly at home), with support from the Interdisciplinary Institute of Humanities. Thanks for bearing with us over the past few months, we hope to have exciting news about our upcoming episodes as well as our annual film festival for you all very soon.

This episode was hosted by me, Richard Sheppard, with research by Dr Linda Sheppard.
