A BEWITCHING new TV pro­ gramme on the most famous figures from Pendle’s past will be presented by Clitheroe’s resident expert on all things spooky, Simon Entwistle. Known for his spine-tingling ghost walks around Clitheroe, and his


uncanny ability to produce sound effects with his voice, Mr Entwistle, of Littlemoor, made the leap to the small screen last year as the presen­ ter of the Granada TV show “Into the Unknown”. Now he has been commissioned to


present a new documentary on the famous Pendle witches, which could be screened in the UK and abroad. “I have some 17 pages of scripts to


learn and I am told the film will be available on DVD in all tourism shops,” said Mr Entwistle.


“In my view this is East Lan­


cashire’s greatest story and according to my family history there is a con­ nection with Alice Nutter (one of the local women hanged as a witch) on my mother’s side of the family. Filming is due to start soon.
