Welcome to our Mostly Media page!
Here you will find a comprehensive list of media features and appearances to browse through. To compliment these, we’ve also uploaded some pieces for you to check out first-hand, just in case you missed them first time around. These include; a feature written for the Scots Magazine about the original team, our launch and two of our favourite haunts; the Theatre Royal and Garlieston Straight Road (look out for an interesting eye-witness account from a man who saw the ghostly girl on the roadside) and a thought-provoking radio feature on the execution of Mary Timney. .
Initially, we thought it would be a handy reference to compile a media-related list for ourselves, then decided it would be great to share this info. That way, our web visitors can chart the team’s progression over the years - there’s no doubt it’s been an incredible journey! It is important at this point to thank everyone who has responded to our various articles and supported us on our way - this has been a massive help and we really appreciate it (see Mostly Thanks for further acknowledgements).
All you have to do now is click on the following headings and you will be taken directly to the appropriate section or simply browse through the list…
