There I was watching a perfectly innocent documentary about historical cold case investigations and the trail leads them back to grave robbing and its connections with early anatomists. Then this line from the narration hit my chuckle bones like a club. It went something like as follows:-
"John Hunter was the most successful and respected anatomist of his era so much so that the Bishop of Durham bequeathed his rectum to him for scientific analysis."
Well I think that's what was said.
