	Description:		Lara Maiklem is an author with an obsessive hobby: Mudlarking. Also known as the ‘London Mudlark’ she spends hours searching the Thames foreshore for items left behind by the river from the past 2,000 years. Strictly never using a metal detector she patiently hunts for what the river chooses to reveal. From discarded engagement rings, to a glass eye and even a tudor shoe. In this episode Lara tells Matt about her fascination with these objects, the indescribable excitement of finding items which link us to the past and the human connection they bring.
