Firefighters line the Royal Mile in Edinburgh for the funeral of Brother Barry Martin.
Today we mourn the loss of a dedicated member of the community and a brave firefighter. We come together in his honour.
A justified stushie over the cancellation of jazz & other music shows on @BBCRadioScot—these are vital, world-class scenes. But it’s only an indicator of how unserious the whole service is about Scotland’s past, present & future. My @BBCRadioScot column https://t.co/GBfgD8Iwg9
JAMES HOGG
Here it is: the first public performance/rehearsed reading of James Hogg's 200 year old play 'Royal Jubilee' that took place at the Scottish Poetry Library in Dec 2022. Introduced by Valentina Bold & Kirsteen McCue. In its entirety. Enjoy!

Exclusive: BBC Radio Scotland is to axe its long-running Jazz Nights, Classics Unwrapped & Pipeline programmes. Hundreds have already backed a petition of protest.
