… and wicked while alive. Baseness and wickedness was not they, was but the heavy and unmanageable environment that lay round them.” (Thomas Carlyle)

A visit to some burial places in Britain (and elsewhere) – what they may, and may not, give away about the people laid to rest there. A talk with documentation, given by Rolf Pentzlin in memory of Professor Albert-Reiner Glaap OBE (1929-2023). Don't worry, this will not be a sombre talk!
