It's the 1700s in London. Times are hard and money is low. What do you do? If you're like many, you might fence items for cash. If you're Jack Sheppard, you not only fence stolen items, you're arrested multiple times and escape from the "inescapable" jails, particularly Newgate Prison. His escapes included scaling walls with bed sheets, dressing in women's clothing, and climbing a chimney and going through 6 locked doors and a chapel. Join us as we cover this Georgian escape artist.
