Carlisle Times & Crimes
Looking at centuries of crack and scandal from the Great Border City. From murders and manslaughters, to ghost stories and folklore, join me as we explore the darker side of Carlisle.
Carlisle Times & Crimes
A Carlisle Carol
It's Christmas, and, like Jacob Marley, I bring you three ghosts of Christmas past.
The clock strikes One: The first Ghost takes us back to 1843, where we will see how the wealthy and poor celebrate Christmas as Charles Dickens' festive classic was released.
The clock strikes Two: The second Ghost of Christmas past shows us Charles Dickens in Carlisle in 1861, as he performed his works on stage.
The clock strikes Three: Finally, the third Ghost of Christmas Past arrives to send a chill down your spine as we witness the spirit of The White Woman of Paternoster Row.
Merry Christmas and a Blessed Midwinter.
