CGiii Comment

Only shown in Scotland - because, only Glaswegians can understand their own accents.

The acting is utterly frightening...

For a show that has run for 2 decades, the viewing figures are consistently dismal. Any other show with these statistics would be cancelled...that's BBC Scotland for you!

Over 1200 episodes...!!!

Hey, it's an Equity minimum job!
