ADAM 4 (to camera) We’ve literally never met before. Although I do have a bit of a sniffle actually, how did you know? CorpseTalk_012_Mary Seacole Final_Pass Page 64/564
ADAM 14 It’s time for ‘Mary’s Medicines’, in which we challenge Mary Seacole to whip up a traditional remedy for aches and pains. CorpseTalk_012_Mary Seacole Final_Pass Page 129/564
ADAM 14 It’s time for ‘Mary’s Medicines’, in which we challenge Mary Seacole to whip up a traditional remedy for aches and pains. So what’s cooking? Mary grabs ingredients and starts grinding them in a pestle and mortar. 15 MARY 15 CorpseTalk_012_Mary Seacole Final_Pass Page 130/564
you on your feet in no time - It’s a powerful mixture! 16 ADAM 16 Speaking of powerful mixtures, you were half-Jamaican, half-Scottish- 17 MARY 17 I see what you did there. 18 ADAM 18 Thanks. But did that make things difficult for you given all the racism in the British Empire? 19 MARY 19 It did. But it wasn't too bad for me growing up in Jamaica. I was what we called ‘Creole’ and I was very proud of my roots. Speaking of which, pass the ginger root, please. Adam passes the ginger root. 20 ADAM 20 I see what YOU did there. 21 MARY 21 Thanks. There were still some very unfair rules though - like I wasn’t allowed to inherit anything from my father when he died. But actually I came across racism more when I started to travel the world. There, all done. CorpseTalk_012_Mary Seacole Final_Pass Page 131/564
