Join Lily and Pono as they take a tour of Derby Friar Gate, starting at the Gaol where you can hear the screams from inside the condemned cell - as featured on Most Haunted. We will then take you along on the walk to Vernon Gate to visit Derby's third and last county prison where we visit the execution room, before moving down Agard Street to hear all about the bloody murder of Eliza Morrow. We will leave you back at the gaol, having just learned of the details of the last public execution in Derbyshire, resulting from the last armed revolution in England. This is a seriously spooky episode, featuring the only tour of the series to own their site. We therefore discuss the opportunities this affords the tour operators in terms of staging the environment to most effectively interact with our imaginations, which have been primed by our own expectations and the grisly narratives of the tour.
