Blue Men of the Minch - Stories of Scotland Podcast - Episode 24

Jenny and Annie head to sea to explore the legends of the Blue Men of the Minch: supernatural men who are said to inhabit the strip of sea from the Outer Hebrides to the west coast of mainland Scotland. Jenny and Annie look at different tales taken from oral tradition and think about what these strange wee creatures from folklore tell us about the nautical culture of the Hebrides. Celebrating Scotland’s coasts and waters in a lighthearted look at mythology.

Thank for this, I'm writing a story based around the Blue Men.

This was fun! I'm surprised I'm the only viewer or the only one who has left a comment. Where are the locations of the streets @ 7:25-7:33 ?

Hello, glad you enjoyed it! Our show is usually accessed via other podcasting platforms, we block-uploaded all of our episodes to UA-cam a few months ago, and it's really interesting to see how each episode gets on here! The streets are in Glasgow I think!

@@StoriesofScotland I've been thinking of moving to Glasgow for quite some time; but the situation in the world has put those plans indefinitely on hold. Thanks for your reply!
