Yes even with a b&w telly I could tell she was green, never fully recovered!
This is number 8 from a list of 100 things to do before you die in Scotland from the Herald on Sunday. It's true, I've made the journey to check it out...took flying monkey repellent just in case! 8. Enjoy a Dorothy's-eye view of Edinburgh Castle. "Go to the junction of Bread Street and Spittal Street in Edinburgh at dusk. Beside the shop on the corner is a blue door. Stand by that door and look up towards the castle. This is the view of the ramparts at their most soaring. Then consider this: A man called George Gibson, who was born a few feet from you, behind that blue door, emigrated to the US in 1930, worked as a scenic artist in the MGM movie studio between 1934 and 1969 and painted the Emerald City in The Wizard of Oz. Now look up at the Castle again. See the similarities?"
