b'How do you convince people you are innocent of a crime committed by someone who looks exactly like you and even shares your name? It\\u2019s the strange story of William West and\\u2026 William West. (Will The Real William West Please Step Forward) *** In November 1638, Dorothy Talby killed her three-year-old daughter. She admitted so when first arrested. But then she refused to say anything when brought before a judge. But then, what would you expect from a woman, which we all know is more easily persuaded by Satan to sin \\u2013 and women were much more likely to be seduced by witchcraft. At least, that\\u2019s what people believed in the 17th century. (The Case of Dorothy Talbye) *** It\\u2019s understood and agreed to by most that while it is a lot of fun to think about, time travel is simply not possible \\u2013 and will probably never be seeing as we\\u2019ve never met any time travelers. Or\\u2026 maybe we have? (True Time-Travel Moments) *** Stories of shapeshifters seem to be told worldwide \\u2013 and the Celtic nations are no different. We\\u2019ll look at a few shape-changing creatures from Ireland, Wales and Scotland. (Shape-Shifters Of The Celts) *** (Originally aired may 12, 2021)
