Loch Ness Monster | TWaLE : Episode 1

Loch Ness Monster :-

In the north of Scotland there is a lake called Loch Ness. It is the biggest lake in Britain. It is over 30 kilometres long and in places nearly 300 metres deep.

Loch-Ness Lake

It is cold and dark and not many people went there until a road was made around the lake in 1930. Holiday-makers began to use the road, and this was when the stories began.

The Nessie (not real)

Someone said that he had seen a monster in the lake. He said it was twelve metres long. It had a long neck and small head. Then someone else said that he had seen it. Others said the same thing and in 1933 a London doctor  took a photograph. It looked like a monster with a long neck and a thick body but the photograph was not clear. The newspapers printed the picture and called it the Loch Ness monster, or “Nessie”.


 Then the argument began. Nobody had seen anything clearly and no one had any proof. Some people, however, were certain there was something living in the lake. Others said there was nothing there. In 1961, a lot of people joined together to make a real effort to see and photograph the monster—if there was one ! Several times people thought they saw something but after ten years there was still no proof. Later, underwater television cameras were used, and even a submarine ! But no one found any real proof. However, the submarine did find something interesting: a huge underwater cave. It was big enough to be the home of a monster, but of course, this was not a proof.
