Grant Stott is going back in time! As the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ in Edinburgh is 100 years old today – we’re going to be imagining what might have been on The Afternoon Show in 1924.

³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Scotland’s former Political Editor Brian Taylor and journalist Sheena McDonald will be joining Grant to revel in the last century of broadcasting, plus Tricia Allerston from the National Galleries and historian Ally Heather will be popping in.

Anna Welander is in conversation with award-winning novelist and screenwriter Elle McNicoll who chats about the success of C³ÉÈËÂÛ̳’s adaption of her Emmy nominated and RTS winning book A Kind Of Spark and her latest book Keedie.

And we’ll be shining a light on The Stirling Orchestra – who are bringing a Grammy award winning piece of music to Oban for its European premiere!
