Ep 203: Haringey - A magic movie moment, all done with kindness
Hello Haringey. From Highgate to Tottenham, and the cemetery to Bruce Castle, we flit West to East and back again. Fiona's long been fascinated by a film clip, and turns out both the filmmaker and the subject have Haringey connections. So this week we are talking about the magician David Devant and the cinema pioneer Robert Paul.
Roll up, roll up, roll up, for the Kinetescope, the Animatograph and the Filoscope. And cheer loudly for the Prince of Wales. (In fact there's two mentions for the Prince of Wales this week, see if you notice them both, different person, same title.)
Plus Eleanor Morton's dates for the Soho theatre. Who else had a whistle at the Burlington Arcade? How much for a plot? And which dictator's relations lived in Haringey?
