Pianist Joanna MacGregor, Scottish saxophonist Tommy Smith and soprano Carolyn Sampson join the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra and conductor Stephen Bell to mark the final night of the world’s greatest classical music festival. As well as classical favourites by Bizet, Mozart and Mendelssohn, this roof-raising evening of music and song has a distinctive jazz influence with Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue, the big band excitement of Leonard Bernstein’s Prelude, Fugue and Riffs, the rip-roaring overture to Gypsy and the white-tie sophistication of Irving Berlin and Noël Coward. The programme will also feature Scottish violinist Nicola Benedetti’s performance of the Bruch Violin Concerto from the Royal Albert Hall in London. Highlights of the concert will be broadcast on Classics Unwrapped on BBC Radio Scotland, Tuesday 11 September, 8.05pm Stephen Duffy MONDAY 10 SEPTEMBER TELEVISION & RADIO HIGHLIGHTS /BBC WEEK 37 _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Burnistoun, Episode 5/6 Monday 10 September BBC Two Scotland, 10.00-10.30pm This week’s Burnistoun comedy shenanigans include ‘quality polis’ McGregor and Toshan who attend a football match - but end up causing the very riot they were meant to avert. Pals Peter and Scott have a disagreement over what is, and is not, acceptable footwear for the pub while Jolly Boy John uses his granny’s pet turtle in his latest hilarious home video. Elsewhere, two aggressive salesmen foist a top of the range motor on a reluctant passer-by while a paranoid punter sees secret government plots in fish suppers and post boxes. And there’s a surprise in store for one Burnistoun man who doesn’t get the happy ending he hoped for at the local massage parlour. The Burnistoun Film Awards are disrupted by some locals who have their eyes on the red carpet, while an aspiring gangster struggles to find the right tone of menacing. Also this week, a sadistic singer forces an embarrassed member of the audience to dance for him and the Burnistoun time capsule receives some unusual contributions from the locals. Burnistoun is a Comedy Unit production for BBC One Scotland, written by and starring Iain Connell and Robert Florence. Also appearing on Burnistoun are Kirsty Strain, Louise Stewart, Richard Rankin, and Gerry McLaughlin. Julie Whiteside _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Past Lives, Prog 4/6 Monday 10 September BBC Radio Scotland, 2.00pm – 2.30pm bbc.co.uk/radioscotland Mark Stephen travels to Angus where he reopens a case of arsenic poisoning in Kirriemuir and reveals the scandal that caused a falling out between best friends JM Barrie and Captain Robert Falcon Scott.

Suzanne Vickers TUESDAY 11 SEPTEMBER TELEVISION & RADIO HIGHLIGHTS / BBC WEEK 37 _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ River City Tuesday 11 September BBC One Scotland, 8.00 – 9.00pm bbc.co.uk/rivercity This week in Shieldinch…Gabriel is accused of murder; Will’s frustration has serious consequences; and Raymond is running out of options. Gabriel thinks he is on easy street with Sean seemingly out of the way, Angie on her way to London and his family life getting back on track. He is delighted when Nicole even comes to ask for advice on her relationship with Stevie. However, the police are about to burst his bubble. Angie has been found dead and all the evidence seems to point to Gabriel – particularly with his mixed story. When Sean turns up at the station with damning evidence of Gabriel too, DCI Donald has no choice but to charge him with murder. Meanwhile, Raymond has also been duped into believing Sean is out of his life but life is by no means back to normal. His pub licence is under review following the police bust so the Tall Ship has to remain closed. To top it all off, Sean then returns and he has more demands to make of Raymond. Will is frustrated with the murder investigations and feels undermined when Gabriel is charged with the murder. He, after all, was looking at new leads and different avenues as everyone knows Gabriel wouldn’t kill anyone. Robbie is no support to him and does nothing but wind Will up on a hugely stressful day. As Robbie bears the brunt of Will’s frustration – Deek also pays the price of getting in the way. Gabriel is played by Garry Sweeney, Sean by James Cunningham, Angie by Kirsty Strain, Nicole by Holly Jack, Stevie by Paul James Corrigan, DCI Donald by Robin Laing, Raymond by Paul Samson, Will by Scott Ryan Vickers, Robbie by Gary Lamont and Deek by Gordon McCorkell.

It’s Imogen’s birthday but, unlike her attention-seeking mother Sally, she doesn’t want any fuss. At school, Imogen’s horrified to discover her fitness guru mum is helping with Tariq’s rowing fundraiser. And, worse still, Sally’s lycra-tight outfits and flirtatious manner draw attention – especially from Gus who bets his school mates he can score with the older woman. Jealousy rears its ugly head when Christine witnesses a closeness between Connor and Imogen. Worried Connor might be confiding in Imogen about her drinking habit, Christine snaps at her son. But Connor retaliates - he’ll make his mother’s life a misery if she doesn’t back off. Later, at Imogen’s party in the school house, a tipsy Sally turns up uninvited. Sensing Imogen’s shame, Connor asks Sally to leave. Feeling protected, Imogen reveals her hidden secret to Connor. Also this week, Connor and Christine’s relationship is strained after she refuses to forgive him for slapping her. Upset and angry after another confrontation, Connor finds a dangerous outlet for his frustrations. Elsewhere, Havelock High’s Gerard Findlay attempts to cause a storm of controversy falsely alleging Michael assaulted him. Taking matters into her own hands, Sian seeks out Michael’s estranged father, Billy, to set the record

  • Subverting Scottish Male Identities in Gary: Tank Commander1 Mary Irwin, I
    ‘Ah hink it's time for suttin blue n a BAILEYS!’ Subverting Scottish Male Identities in Gary: Tank Commander1 Mary Irwin, Independent Scholar and Gabrielle Smith, Northumbria University Introduction: Who is Gary? Actor and writer Greg McHugh’s popular Scottish comedy character Corporal Gary McLintoch, commander in the 104th Royal Tank Regiment, originated in McHugh’s stand-up performance of the character at the 2006 Edinburgh Fringe festival. In 2008, E4 commissioned a one-off pilot Gary’s War, starring the character, which subsequently won a Scottish BAFTA. In 2009, the BBC in Scotland produced the situation comedy Gary: Tank Commander based on McHugh’s character which chronicled the daily working lives and experiences (home and abroad) of Gary and the rest of the regiment. The live stage show Gary: Tank Commander - Mission Quite Possible (2016) was performed in Glasgow’s SSE Hydro concert venue. Indeed, Gary as a character has achieved significant cultural resonance for Scots. He was chosen to interrogate the leaders of the Scottish political parties on behalf of the nation ahead of the 2015 Holyrood election in a comedy special Gary: Tank Commander - Election Special (BBC 2016). As well as being a professional soldier who has successfully served tours of duty in Afghanistan and Iraq, Gary loves to dance to Scandinavian bubblegum pop one-hit wonder ‘Barbie Girl’; he has 1980s pop duo sisters Mel and Kim’s smash hit ‘Respectable’ as his ringtone and is always partial to some cheesy pasta or a wee Baileys. McHugh’s playful, self- confident and exuberant creation works consistently to contradict, challenge and subvert established representations of Scottish men and masculinity that have previously and currently been offered in Scottish TV comedy.

DIGITAL SCOTLANDS Caroline McCracken-Flesher Welcome to convergence culture —Henry Jenkins Weaving Scottishness into the world wide web might seem to risk losing the nation’s distinctiveness or compromising its character in the imprecisions of an ungoverned but highly invested global medium. In the early days of the new Scottish Parliament, Tom Nairn invited distant Scots to gather in a “House of Return” and “find a new, creative role” helping to determine a recuperated nation.1 Nairn activated a trope of post-Jacobite identity—coming home—hoping for “the invention of new traditions, and the recovery of the past in new modes, or in new accents.”2 But digital media and its convergence culture—which Henry Jenkins describes as “the flow of content across multiple media platforms, the cooperation between multiple media industries, and the migratory behavior of media audiences, who will go almost anywhere” – suggest a broader audience and a wider renegotiation of Scottishness already in process, at home and away.3 In a digital era, Scotland is as much a virtual as it is a concrete reality.

  • Comprehensive Catalog of 1700 Project Blue Book UFO Unknowns
    Comprehensive Catalog of 1,700 Project Blue Book UFO Unknowns: Database Catalog (Not a Best Evidence List) – NEW: List of Projects & Blue Book Chiefs Work in Progress (Version 1.27, Dec. 20, 2016) Compiled by Brad Sparks © 2001-2016 The main purpose of this catalog at present is to help identify and fill in where possible missing or difficult-to-obtain U.S. Air Force documentation on better quality Unexplained UFO cases, not to present any so-called "proof" of UFO reality nor to discuss and argue possible IFO identifications (usually too voluminous to include in a mere catalog). These are subjects reserved for later analysis once full files can be examined (with a few exceptions on IFO’s noted below). This is not a list of official USAF designations of “Unexplained” or “Unknown” cases as it has proven to be almost impossible to establish when such evaluations were considered final or definitive and many more cases misdesignated IFO’s have turned out to be Unexplained UFO’s based on recent analyses. Here the goal is preliminary and to compile more complete documentation, not the perfection of the analysis or categorizations. Many cases here are merely placeholders for later work to fill in more info from the BB files or other sources. This catalog will be used eventually to produce another catalog of UFO Best Evidence, after a screening process based on Hynek's and on other criteria. For that reason columns for data on Duration, No. of Witnesses, Angular Size and "Instrumentation/Scientists etc." have been separately presented from the available case data and/or calculated where possible.
