Chi-chi Nwanoku is the five foot tall double bass player who started Europe's first majority black and ethnic minority orchestra. It's called the Chineke! Orchestra and has performed in prestigious venues to great critical acclaim. Chi-chi was born in London, the daughter of a Nigerian father and an Irish mother. In her teens, Chi-chi was set to become an Olympic sprinter, but she dislocated her knee during a girls football match and never returned to athletics. Then she came across the double bass and this orchestral instrument changed her life forever.

Down in an old Edwardian basement in North London, a very curious world exists. It's filled with creatures from the deep sea, insects from the deepest jungles, two headed skeletons and even a mummy or two.
