Show Notes
Old York, Old York... The city so York they named it York.
James has been visiting the ancient walled city, but he's here to tell Alasdair about visitations of a very different kind. The city centre is home to York Minster, as well as the ghosts of a keen Dean, a smug mason, a nuddy arsonist and a latchkey kid with awful vibes.
Fans of the city in the vale may want to check out our previous York episode, with guest shenanigans from Amy Gledhill.

In the depths of Gloucestershire there lived a man, nay, a visionary! This man dared to dream that his egg-intolerant wife could enjoy a sweet dollop of custard on her pudding and he made that dream a reality. That man is not the main subject of this episode. But let's hear it for experimental chemist Alfred Bird.
Remember that big hill from the West Kennet Long Barrow episode just a couple of weeks ago? Well it's back. This time Silbury Hill brings some golden treats, a posset of seethed milk* and a 4500 year old flying ant.
Yorkshire's answer to the Bermuda triangle is more of a straight line between Everingham and Pocklington. As ever, James and Alasdair tackle the burning questions. What happens when a police officer sees something peculiar on the road? (They try to arrest a ghost, of course!) What on earth is going on with Fahrenheit? And what are you doing with all that pig blood?
Smugglers! Murderers! Funereal fakers!
