#HAWSTL 121 - The Penguin Files

SIMON & LORRA
About this episode

Hello! Something a bit different today. We've had so much feedback about the story of the stolen penguin on a school trip, we thought we'd dedicated (at least) an episode to it. Our research has taken us to England, Scotland, Ireland, France, Australia, The United Arab Emirates and even South Korea. We speak to genuine callers and get their first hand accounts of the penguin story. We speak to someone accused of stealing te penguin to see of there is any weight to the accusations. This was a really fun, yet exhausting episode to put together. Hope you like it.

And, of course, if you have any further news or your own version of the story...

See you next time x
