The history and folklore surrounding witches has provided fruitful ground for writers, and nowhere is this more true than in Scotland.

Carolyn is joined in conversation by Zoe Venditozzi, co-host of the Witches of Scotland podcast and part of a group campaigning for justice for those convicted under the Witchcraft Act of 1563-1736.
