EDINBURGH 2017: BWW Q&A- Great British Mysteries?

Tell us a bit about Great British Mysteries:

'Great British Mysteries?' is a live mockumentary investigating monsters, myths and Noel Edmonds. Eccentric presenters Olive Bacon (Supernaturalist) and Dr. Teddy Tyrell (Scorpio) cast their magnifying glass over myriad British enigmas, and now they're squaring up to the Loch Ness Monster. So bring your armbands. 1/2 sketch comedy, 1/2 TED Talk, 1/2 mystery thriller, Great British Mysteries? combines supernatural investigation with a haze machine on full power.

What kind of mysteries are we talking?

Olive and Teddy take a look at ten infamous mysteries, including The Princes in the Tower, the Enfield Haunting, and of course, Tim Henman.

Is this your first time working together?

We're totally joined at the hip. We make up half of sketch comedy quartet Mixed Doubles (as heard on BBC Radio 4), and we were original cast members in 1927's theatre show 'Golem', which played at the Young Vic, West End and internationally.

Who would you recommend comes to see Great British Mysteries?

If you're the sort of person who wonders what goes bump in the night, then this is the show for you.

Are there any other shows you're hoping to catch?

We can't wait to see Joseph Morpurgo, Thunderbards and Ellie Taylor.
