#32 Escapes (Part 1)

This week we'll be rattling through some of history's most cunning plans because in this episode we're discussing some great ESCAPES! We've got the story of Alice Tankerville, the first woman to escape from the dreaded Tower of London. The incredible escape from Stalag Luft III later immortalised as 'The Great Escape'. Plus the only successful escape from the world's most escape-proof prison, Alcatraz. And our bonus this week for the OWAT: Full Timers is - the incredible story of the Chilean miners escape of 2010. As you'll hear, there's lots to discuss this week: have you ever gone lips to teat? Who was the first person to go lips to teat? What animals are an undiscovered lips to teat treat?
