This week, we look at two lesser-known urban legends of Aberdeen; the Russel Head, a grotesque sculpture which is current affixed to the side of Provost Skene's House, believed to have been created by George Russel who owned a property on Ragg's Lane, opposite Queen St.  He created it in a fit of rage against his neighbour across the road in Broad St, who he believed had reported him to the council and had his bakery closed... or did he? Secondly, investigating the belief that Hitler instructed the Luftwaffe not to bomb Marischal College, as he wanted it for his Scottish Headquarters when he invaded.  First in a series of three.
