Michael Aspel presents a selection of intriguing artifacts from Knebworth House in Hertfordshire, including a pair of provocative female statues once found in a French brothel, a quirky table clock featuring a turtle that floats while telling time, a 1573 chemist's mortar, and a Victorian toilet that was gifted to someone. He also engages with expert Clive Farahar to discuss the vibrant history of Knebworth's famous former resident, Edward Bulwer Lytton, a Victorian playwright and notorious philanderer whose tumultuous marriage sparked significant scandal.
