The dark side of nursery rhymes

Do you have a favourite childhood nursery rhyme?

Whether it's riding a cock horse to Banbury Cross, or Jack and Jill going up the hill.

They may bring back happy memories for you, but it actually turns out there's a darker side to most of these tales.

One Coventry teacher was inspired to write a play about it, Nursery Town Murders, which is being staged at Allesley Village Hall.
