Highlands is being made by Maramedia, the same company which made the BAFTA Award-nominated Hebrides – Islands on the Edge. Craig Hunter, Executive Producer for BBC Scotland, says: “This series is putting the kind of focus on Scottish wildlife, usually reserved for what we normally think of as exotic locations, and harnessing it all from the big to the small to showcase it in a dynamic and captivating way. This forms part of BBC Scotland’s commitment to a broad range of documentaries that show and reflect diverse aspects of life in Scotland, from the rural to the urban from the historical to the contemporary.” Already filming, the project is aiming to capture stunning images ranging from red deer of Monarch of the Glen fame to capercaillies; from the merlins of the summer moors to the tiniest of life on the floor of the Caledonian pine forests, as well as the teeming life of the sea and lochs; from colonies of seabirds to orcas, from pearl mussels to crayfish and trout. Nigel Pope, Managing Director of Maramedia, who will be executive producer on the project, said: “Our aim is to show the wildlife of the Highlands as it has never been seen before, from the big and expected beasts such as the red deer and eagles, and favourites such as red squirrels, ospreys and otters, to amazing fish and the ant life of the Caledonian pine forest, which have lived there from ancient times and we'll be using the latest in cutting-edge macro photography to film them. “The amazing terrain north of the Highland fault-line from Arran up eastwards through the Cairngorms will be captured with one of the most extensive campaigns of aerial photography ever used on a British wildlife series. Through super slow-motion, infrared and underwater photography, we will be revealing amazing focus on the wildlife in the air, trees, on the rocks and in the lochs in intimate detail.” The team includes award-winning cameraman Gordon Buchanan, alongside up and coming young cameramen Lindsay McCrae, of Cumbria, and Raymond Besant, who grew up in the Orkney Islands but now lives in Aberdeenshire, who have both been ‘earning their spurs’ in recent years on the likes of Spring and Autumnwatch. As well as the wildlife and scenery, the team hope to reflect the dynamic changes in the landscape, wrought by weather, from scorching sunshine to blizzards across the mountains and moors. Added Nigel: “The ever-changing weather – good and bad – are part of the story of the wildlife and the landscape of the Highlands, part and parcel of its magic.” Highlands, which began filming earlier this year, is a two year project which is expected to transmit in 2016. Hilda McLean EDITORIAL 2014 / BBC WEEK 21 _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ BBC Scotland goes On the Road with Fred MacAulay and Martel Maxwell Comedian Fred MacAulay and Journalist Martel Maxwell are going On the Road with BBC One Scotland for a brand new weekly magazine programme. The six-part series, to begin broadcast in June, is a showcase of Scotland and will take a look at events and activities across the length and breadth of the country, reflecting what the nation is talking about. Fred MacAulay says: “It’s a great year for Scotland and I’m excited to being involved with this show and really looking forward to getting On The Road to familiar places and new destinations.” On the Road 2014 will cover festivals, comedy, music, unusual events, theatre, celebrations of food and drink, competitions, fantastic art and amazing public performances. Martel Maxwell says: “What a year this is for Scotland. I can't wait to bring to life the history, people, places and culture that make us so special.” The programmes will also include some well-known faces looking at stories important to them. Executive Producer Eileen Herlihy says: “Across Scotland there is such a huge variety of things happening that it is great to have this opportunity to be able to celebrate some of these and learn about the great stories behind them.” On the Road 2014 is part of the BBC’s year-long contribution to the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games. The BBC is the domestic broadcaster for Glasgow 2014 and in addition to comprehensive sports coverage during The Games in July and August, the Corporation has also unveiled a wide-ranging package of on-air and off-air output and events throughout 2014. Karen Higgins MONDAY 26 MAY – BANK HOLIDAY TV & RADIO HIGHLIGHTS / BBC WEEK 21 _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Radio 1 Big Weekend Highlights NEW Monday 26 May – Bank Holiday BBC Two Scotland, 6.30 – 7.30pm On this Bank Holiday Monday, BBC Two Scotland invite viewers to enjoy the best moments of Radio 1’s Big Weekend in Glasgow. Presenter Ally McCrae brings all the action from the two-day extravaganza on Glasgow Green, where 50,000 fans watch some of the biggest names in music perform. Karen Higgins _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Commonwealth City, Ep 2/3 Monday 26 May – Bank Holiday BBC One Scotland, 10.35 – 11.35pm In the second episode of Commonwealth City, as the Games get closer, regeneration in the East End is in full swing, and the residents are adjusting to the changes in their local area. As the documentary follows the progress, BBC Scotland catches up with Darren, as he receives his compensation money for selling his businesses, and enrols one of his children into private school – all while dealing with some devastating family news. The documentary also features Yvonne Kuckuk, who runs the local community centre, which is about to be taken away to make room for the Games. Yvonne looks for ways to give her and the community a bigger slice of the legacy the Games will leave for Dalmarnock. In other stories this week, Margaret Jaconelli watches as her neighbourhood is redeveloped, we catch-up with Steven, as he progresses his career while working at the Velodrome, and 12 year old Callum is reunited with his father. Karen Higgins TUESDAY 27 MAY TELEVISION & RADIO HIGHLIGHTS / BBC WEEK 21 _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ River City Tuesday 27 May BBC One Scotland HD, 8.00 – 9.00pm This week in Shieldinch…the Lindsay family’s new start doesn’t begin well when schoolgirl Kirsty goes off the rails; Angus tempts Bob with a risky business deal; and Robbie and Will’s fostering dreams gather momentum. Alan, Angus and Kirsty Lindsay arrive to start a new life in Shieldinch. However, Liz and Malcom’s warm welcome meets a frosty reception from Alan who’s none-too-happy at having nosey neighbours on his doorstep. Angus ignores his father’s orders to meet a contractor at the site, opting instead to test drive a car he’s keen to buy. Less-than-impressed with her new home, teenager Kirsty plays truant from school, stealing a bottle of gin from the mini-market to drown her sorrows. Back at the house, Alan tracks down Angus, scolding him for being a no-show at work. Heading back to work, Alan is further humiliated when Frank Paton takes over key construction decisions, undermining his role as project manager. Zinnie comes across an intoxicated Kirsty and offers a shoulder to cry on but is horrified when Kirsty unleashes a tirade against Alan, painting a deliberately dishonest picture of her father. Meanwhile, newcomer Angus hits it off with Bob after a chance encounter. The pair end up in the pub and, over a few pints, Angus makes Bob a tempting, but illegal, business proposition. Will and Robbie prepare for a visit from social worker Sandra to discuss fostering. Feeling the pressure, Sandra quickly puts Will and Robbie at ease - she’d be happy to put them forward to fostering. Kirsty Lindsay is played by Bobby Rainsbury, Angus by Scott Fletcher, Bob by Stephen Purdon, Robbie by Gary Lamont, Will by Scott Ryan Vickers, Alan by Stephen McCole, Liz by Eileen McCallum, Malcolm by Johnny Beattie, Frank Paton by Paul Thomas Hickey, Zinnie by Nalini Chetty and Sandra by Caroline Paterson. Julie Whiteside _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Scotland 2014 NEW Tuesday, 27 May BBC Two Scotland, 10.30-11.00pm Scotland 2014 is a new current affairs series which will be breaking stories, taking a fresh look at the big issues and hearing from key figures in politics and culture - in Scotland and beyond.
