      Well, it’s related to my job, but I think a cool fact is that during periods of low sea level (linked to the different Ice Ages) much of the North Sea would have been dry land, so you would have been able to walk all the way from the UK to mainland Europe! We know that people and animals were there because we find things like flint tools and mammoth teeth on the seabed.
