  "abstract": "In paediatric practice, the term ‘funny turn’ is commonly used to refer to a child presenting with paroxysmal episodes of transient loss of consciousness, blank staring, unusual behaviour, change of colour or unusual movements. In this paper, we will focus on some key non-epileptic phenomena that present like this and will briefly trace the historical evolution of our ideas regarding such events over the last 100 years, referencing papers published in Archives of Disease in Childhood (ADC) where possible.",
