>>The whole world's become a pathetic nursery if you ask me<<
Even many of 'our troops' are not up to scratch, I hear,
I enjoyed that Victorian pharmacy actually, but then I don't watch a lot of telly these days, especially while its light until 10pm (in the west)
But then I like most victorian paraphernalia, I could actually see myself in living in a victorian house, decorated to the period inc. fixtures & fittings, but with underfloor heating and a 50" Plasma :)
Laudanum was another much used potion Sire, I believe queen Vic was into that as well,
As we've discussed before ~ if 'recreational drugs were legalised and hence controlled, the THC / cannabinoid / opiate etc.., etc. content could be standardised, a lot of puff these days (skunk etc.) is far, far too powerful, I'll never forget once taking a trip (acid) and from its effect I knew it had been laced with amphetamine.
Anyway, getting back to that very interesting program, some of the ingredients that were left out of the 'cures' were I think a good idea, such as Lead.
