What’s in the box? It might sound an easy question but visitors to Sensation have been baffled by its latest exhibit.

Learning officer Stuart Rogers said the aim was to use scientific methods to identify the items.
He said: “We’ve had some amazing answers from a dice, dry bread and a conker, ‘my gran’s hairclip’ and, most bizarrely of all, a pink duck or mini-clown.”
