The Museum Of Curiosity

Joining John Lloyd and new curator Sarah Millican this week are comedian Holly Walsh, the author and adventurer David Bramwell and "Freakonomist" Stephen J. Dubner.

Holly Walsh, a comedian who made her debut on TV at the age of six as a badger enthusiast, and who later appeared on Celebrity Mastermind with her specialist being "badgers", donates to the museum The Vows of the Peacock, a medieval poem which features strange illustrations, including people with fingers up their arseholes, and naked women riding giant phalluses with smiley faces on them.

One-man cottage industry David Bramwell, a man who has met people from all kinds of alternative backgrounds, from anarchist societies to a utopian society in Arizona, offers the part of a time machine, taken from an Italian community the Federation of Damanhur, who made an underground temple.

Stephen J. Dubner, co-author of Freakonomics, who has helped to proved the drunk walking is more dangerous the drunk driving, and who believes we should abolish the penny, gives The Museum of Curiosity a microchip that could be implanted into a brain that could read human thoughts, even though Dubner hates the idea of it.
