Episode 8
Anders receives worrying news.
In 1964, Professor Glob, the curator of the Silkeborg Museum in Denmark, dedicated his book The Bog People to a group of schoolgirls who had written to him about his recent archaeological discoveries. Fifty years later, at a defining moment in her life, Tina Hopgood writes him another letter about a planned pilgrimage to Denmark with her best friend, Bella, to visit the 2000-year-old Tollund Man. Why did they never make the trip?
She doesn’t expect a reply.
When Anders Larsen, a lonely museum curator responds, neither does he.
Their unexpected correspondence becomes a shared meditation on love, loss, life choices made and the opportunity to make new and different ones.
