The Magician’s Wife

In the mist-shrouded Highlands of 17th-century Scotland, a farm labourer peers through a hole in a small, white stone. Through this pebble, he claims to see the future. He sees ships sailing across dry land. He sees a day when the people of the Highlands will be outnumbered by sheep. He even foresees a black rain that will bring unimaginable wealth to the city of Aberdeen, three hundred years in the future. Was Coinneach Odhar, the Brahan Seer, truly the "Scottish Nostradamus," or was his legend a masterpiece of historical ventriloquism?

Plus, one year has passed since Barry made his own predictions for 2025, back in episode 13. We listen back to find out how accurate was our own "Scottish Nostradmaus"?

It is the night of 19th November , 1995. The sky over the small market town of Wem in Shropshire is glowing a violent orange. The historic Town Hall is burning to the ground. But amidst the roaring flames and falling timbers, a local photographer captures something that shouldn't exist. Developing his film, he finds a clear, black-and-white image of a young girl, standing calmly in the heart of the inferno, staring directly at him. But was this a visitor from the grave, or a trick that fooled the experts for fifteen years?

In the dimly lit clinics of the Philippines, psychic surgeons perform the impossible: with only their bare hands, they appear to plunge deep into a patient’s body, pulling out bloody, cancerous tumours before astonished onlookers. The skin is left unbroken, the wound sealed as if by a miracle. But is this a genuine medical marvel, a divine gift of healing, or could it instead be a very clever trick?

But as the enemy closes in, a strange vision appears between the two armies: a host of shining angels and ghostly bowmen. The German advance inexplicably falters, and the British are saved. The legend of the Angel of Mons is born, becoming a beacon of hope for the nation.
