Perspective - Preview - Our Taster Show
Our taster show is a magazine format with all kinds of different views on Scottish politics from film to comedy and profile. We hope you like it.
About the show:
A more autonomous nation doesn't just happen at the top; creating more confident communities willing to challenge the status quo and reclaim power is vital. The inspiring story of Govanhill Baths 15 year battle with Glasgow City Council shows that people power can create change and a better future for all.

We do things differently here and put community values at the heart of what we do. Young people are often at the tough end of political decisions and we'll be dedicating production time to covering youth initiatives in Scotland. The organisation can use the film to gain funding, grow and do more. Get in touch if you'd like to nominate.
With 1.6 million speakers, the Scots language is a key element in our identity. In the first of a series, linguistic legend Billy Kay looks at Scots in an European context and celebrates this crucial part of our national identity.

Politics doesn't have to be dull. We explore politics from different angles including film and comedy. Filmmaker Shaun Milne looks at Alan Clarke's study on the futility of violence 'Elephant' while comedian David Kay tells a surreal tale of identity theft.
