A bit of history, a bit of trivia and a few wee jokes. Born and bred in Edinburgh, I worked as a reporter, feature writer and cinema editor on The Scotsman for 17 years and subsequently wrote regularly for the Guardian and London Times. I have written and edited several books, including The Times on Cinema and On Location - The Film Fan's Guide to Britain and Ireland. More recently I have featured as a tour guide on national television on the This Morning programme.
This was a great walk about the city. Really enjoyed it.
This tour was absolutely superb. Brian is extremely knowledgeable but what really made the tour so memorable was his friendly and humorous style. I was also very impressed with his ability to continue to entertain and inform when responding to comments, questions and occurrences that took him "off script." I have not only already recommended Brian's tour to a number of people, I am also in the process of arranging for myself and a group of my friends to go on one of his tours in the near future.
I thoroughly enjoyed our tour round the old town with Brian, he is engaging and threads stories together wonderfully!
