Black Death (Part 1)
2/11/2019
More
The Bubonic Plague has arrived in Scotland. Not among the squalor of a medieval village, but on the streets of Victorian Glasgow. Where has it come from, and why is it spreading?
-- -- -- -- -- -- --
The first part of our first two-parter. Part 2 will be out on 14th March. We're also going to be going bi-monthly from March - because we're fools!

Third Degree Burns

Robert Burns was one of the great poets of his age, a Scottish hero, our national Bard and the toast of high society throughout his short career. This story isn't about him - not completely anyway.

Tam o' Shanter

More

This episode wouldn't be possible without the work of Gordon Barclay whose article 'Duties in the Aid of Civil Power' formed the basis of this episode
