👀👀👀 Spotted in St Andrews! Dr Maddy Pelling

Reading a first draft together

Only went and won Rookie of the Year at the True Crime Awards! What a six months it's been for After Dark - we're absolutely thrilled!

i had no idea until today that there was pretty strong consensus about the real locations of Pride and Prejudice - Longbourn is Hertingfordbury, and Netherfield is a house called Balls, which used to be a teacher training college and is now ritzy flats

In my head, it is now canon that My Boy Only Breaks His Favourite Toys is the main theme for a parallel Barbie movie in which we do not forgive Ken

What was so scandalous about a message carved by Robert Burns that he had to smash a window to hide it? Dr Maddy Pelling explains why the Scottish poet turned to such measures, and what it can tell us about the radical nature of 18th-century graffiti.

On the podcast | Dr Maddy Pelling explores the stories behind historical graffiti, from chalk markings to glyphs scratched onto
windows, revealing what they can tell us about life in 18th-century Britain: spr.ly/6017bj6VJ

Hearing from @maddypelling on 18th-century graffiti was a true highlight of last month for me, I really hope @historyextra listeners enjoy this convo about her new book. Includes plenty of moving messages from the past (and a few gruesome bits too) historyextra.com/membership/gra…

It's me, on HistoryExtra podcast!
