It was a fun night!
A fun @uncannypodlive show at @LighthousePoole last night and we had not one but two of our witnesses from the #Uncanny TV series in the audience - Lisa from the Miss Howard case and Heather from the Oxford Exorcism. It was great to see them both.

More chaos and confusion from this Government on indoor choir rehearsals. After the go ahead was given on Monday, last minute @DCMS guidance limits them to just 6 people. Why the late guidance & will they publish the evidence that led to this change? #choirsmatter

Listen to Eve, please @_Eve_Griffiths_
So you remember a couple of months ago when we were in the peak and you wanted to do something to help, but there was nothing you could do, so you stood on your doorstep and clapped? Remember that feeling? All you wanted was to be able to help somehow? Well now is your chance. 1/
