The Real Jekyll and Hyde: The Deacon Brodie Story

4 Mitglieder

For the millions of tourists who flock to Edinburgh each year, The Royal Mile is a big draw ... packed with buskers, lined with souvenir shops and with its dark, intriguing little 'closes' either side. Lots of visitors will stop for a refreshment at Deacon Brodie's Tavern, a popular landmark. But how many know that the real life "Deacon" was hanged for his crimes?

Who was the man who inspired Stevenson's Jekyll and Hyde? And why does he remain such a figure of affection, in the city of his birth? This is the story of William Brodie - the man who had everything to lose... With expert opinion and drama reconstruction, the programme is presented by John Morrison.
