S5E2.1 - The Two faces of Deacon Brodie - Pt. 1

Published on: 10th February, 2023

Did you know the story of Dr Jeykll and Mr Hyde was inspired by a real person? He's quite a character and his exploits are a story worth listening to! 

This week Eilidh is telling us about Deacon  Brodie, a man who was held in very high esteem throughout Edinburgh's social circles. But by night it was another story...

Enjoy!
