As side-splittingly funny as it is thought-provoking, Obsolete Tomfoolery tells the story of Helen Duncan; a famous medium who travelled around Britain in the 1940s performing s?ances, claiming she was able to physically manifest the spirits of dead people. During the war, she was investigated by MI5 after it appeared she revealed government secrets about sunk British Battleships. In 1944, a few months before D-day, she was sent to prison under a 200-year-old ‘Witchcraft Act’.
