Definitely 2023, they've changed the UI various times since 2017, that looks about the same as it does now

A man did this in London in 1810, but with everything - chimney sweeps, piano deliveries, priests, lawyers, coal carts, doctors, undertakers, the archbishop of Canterbury...

It brought the whole area to a standstill and the guy won a guinea in a bet and ran away to the countryside

On higher end ones maybe, but this works fine so idk - it's conceivable they both use the same internals just with a different battery mounting geometry

"Sexual" in this context just means relating to different sexes, it's not saying they're doing it to be sexually appealing (I hope at least)

Whenever my family went on holiday to Dartmoor when I was little, parents would always take us to church at Buckfast Abbey if we were there on a Sunday.

Always thought it was just for the nice architecture and the gardens, but maybe they had another motive....

Oh yeah that's just how most English Heritage places are 😆 what you "do" is walk around, read the plaques, and climb up bits if you're allowed - sometimes there's even a roof!
