Step into 12th-century Suffolk with this episode of Curious Britain, as we uncover the mysterious legend of the Green Children of Woolpit. Found in the fields with green skin and speaking an unknown language, these children have baffled historians for centuries. Were they lost immigrants, aliens or something else entirely? We explore the strange tale, historical context, and theories behind one of England's most intriguing medieval mysteries.
