Giles Job lived in the Derby Castle Hotel as a child in the late 1940s. At the time the building was divided into two apartments and he and his family lived in one of them.
On a recent visit to the Isle of Man he took the opportunity to talk to Charles Guard about his memories of the living there, including anecdotes about the Derby Castle theatre, the dance hall and the underground maze of cellars and passages that he explored as a young boy.
