FIVE STARS!!!
This was an unexpected delight of a show! It built up to story after story of Edinburgh and some of its extraordinarily horrific history - all in a venue which had an atmosphere all of its own, lit by candle. The talk was delivered with an unmistakable air of authority, this speaker definitely knew what he was talking about!
