The predacious great diving beetle of Fife - a beastie the world is not yet ready for (or at least Susan Morrison isn鈥檛 ready for it) - we鈥檒l be exploring its role in pointing to the Kingdom鈥檚 history of general sogginess and water bodies with entomologist Dr Jack Maclachlan of the University of Maine who鈥檚 in pursuit of Fife鈥檚 lost lochs. Then to Sierra Leone to find out what a Scottish qualified doctor made of the idea of 鈥榟uman leopards鈥� with Dr Christine Whyte of Glasgow University. Finally to one of the most vibrant courts in Scottish history where Dr Amy Blakeway of St Andrews University introduces us to James V and his menagerie of pets - including the plus-size parrot and the naughty dogs.
