Alright, well thank you so much, Ahir. Thank you so much, Dr. Danica. And listener, if you want to explore more ancient archaeological mysteries, then why not listen to our episodes on China's Terracotta Army or Stone Age Çatalhöyük in Turkey. Or if South Asian history is your thing, then check out our episode on the Mughal Empire. You'll find them all and more on BBC Sounds.

Und in Comedy Corner hatten wir den tollen Ahir Shah. Danke, Ahir. Absolut mein Vergnügen. Es ist immer so ein Vergnügen, das zu machen. So interessant. Danke. Und zu Ihnen, liebe Zuschauer, folgt mir nächste Woche, als wir mehr faszinierende historische Nuggets entdecken. Aber für jetzt bin ich weg und recordiere mein Archäologie-inspirtes Heavy-Metal-Album Mound of the Dead.

And today we are channelling our inner Colin Firths and emerging soaking wet from the lake of history to bring you a special guide to love and courtship in Georgian Britain.

And to help us navigate this topic with sense and sensibility, we have two very special guests. In History Corner, she's a Vice-Chancellor's Research Fellow in History and History of Art at Oxford Brookes University, where she studies the history of gender and emotions in 18th and 19th century Britain.

Indeed, she's the author of The Game of Love in Georgian England, Courtship, Emotions and Material Culture. Perfect for us is Dr Sally Holloway. Welcome, Sally.

So, what do you know? This is where I have a go at guessing what our lovely listener will know about today's subject, and I'm willing to bet quite a lot listeners will have at least watched one Jane Austen adaptation. They get blooming everywhere.
