This talk covers the strange saga of the career of Hitler's Deputy, his flight to Scotland in May 1941 and his 40-year incarceration in Spandau Prison in West Berlin.  It is based, in part, on my experiences both as a guard commander and as the British Governor's interpreter in the mid-1970s and early 1980s.

2016 will see the 75th anniversary of Rudolf Hess' arrival in the United Kingdom.
