Again, Lucy Worsley.
"They don't have a pot to piss in." Contextually, I understood this to mean someone was poor (I was about to say dirt poor, but I'm not sure of the origin of that. Something I'll have to look up.) Centuries ago, one way of earning money was to collect the urine from the household chamber pots or whatever they were called at the time. If you didn't have a pot to collect the urine in to sell for a source of income, you didn't have a pot to piss in. I love weird stuff like this.
