1831: A Collection of Insanity and Asylum Stories Around England | Episode 28v

News of the Times Episode 53 | 1840
A Collection of Insanity and Asylum Stories Around England
Mental illness, and how it was perceived and treated, including the treatment of the criminally insane, is explored in this episode.  We also take another look at Christiana Edmunds, of Brighton poisoning fame, and her actions and behaviours within Broadmoor Asylum.  Was she actually insane?  Or did her family's wealth protect her from execution?
Hosted by Robin Coles.
