Comedian Chloe Petts explores the history of the loo from ancient Roman latrines to the culture wars of today.

To help Chloe on this historical journey of the loo, she is joined by travel companion, the Ghost of Sir Thomas Crapper - who also bears quite a resemblance to comedian, Ed Gamble. In this episode Chloe explores the history of the Public Toilet and finds out who wasn't permitted to use them.
