"1pm. Storm ended, sea calm. God is over all" - the eerie last words entered into the logbook of the Flannan Isles Lighthouse. After 3 harrowing days & nights of raging storms in December 1900, three lighthouse keepers vanished from the remote island and were never seen again.
Regular listeners will know that we love a good mystery! And as we find ourself heading towards the Flannan's aboard our very own ghost ship, we just had to share the story - it is Halloween after all!
And who better to talk to us about Scottish lighthouse mysteries than the Northern Lighthouse Board's very own Gillian Burns! Gillian is, quite frankly, one of the coolest people we have ever met, she shares stories of her incredible 30 year career at the NLB, where commuting to work by helicopter and staying in remote Lighthouses is the norm.
This really is one of the most fascinating episodes we have worked on!
