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'.

The Big Fat Quiz

The Big Fat Quiz is an annual British television programme broadcast on the last Sunday of the year on Channel 4. Essentially, the show is a comedy panel show in the style of a pub quiz. Three teams, of two celebrities each, are asked questions relating to the events of the year just gone by, which they write answers to on an electronic board in front of them. At the end of each round, they then display their answers, scoring a point for each correct one. The first edition was broadcast in December 2004. There has been another at the end of each year since, as well as a special edition in November 2007 for Channel 4's 25th anniversary celebrations.
