Episode 5
Presenter Donald Morrison takes a nostalgic look through the archive of the popular Gaelic current affairs series Cearcall. In the original series transmitted in the late 70's and the 80's, topics covered included fishing, crofting, language and politics. In this programme, three distinct pieces are covered. In the first report, Angela MacEachan visits Donald Stewart, the MP who represented the Western Isles for 17 years. He was the SNP's first MP to win his seat at a general election and was unusual in that he was popular and respected even by opponents of his party.
The second report looks at the state of the Harris tweed industry at the time of new training courses and new looms being introduced.
The final item examines the campaign to keep the Cold War away from Lewis: it was called 'Keep Nato Out'.
