Episode 3
Sunday, 23 August, 2020

Knock on wood three times, run to the nearest tree and touch it, the touchwood superstition has taken over our lives, maybe even to the extent of being comical. From knocking our heads when there's no wood around, to panicking about whether plywood counts as real wood, we all have experienced our own variations.
