First published to bring news from the trenches of World War One, the Sunday Post has become a Scottish icon and - according to the Guinness Book of Records - the most successful newspaper in the world. Narrated by Dundee's own Brian Cox, A Century of Scottish Sundays: 100 Years of the Sunday Post tells the story of this well-loved newspaper from the city of 'jute, jam and journalism'. Post columnists Lorraine Kelly, Ross King and Lesley Riddoch take part, along with celebrity readers like Alex Norton and John Michie. Lorraine describes her guest appearance in the Post's Oor Wullie cartoon as being even better than receiving her OBE! Sunday Post editor Donald Martin is in the spotlight, with cameras following him as he produces an edition. Donald is only the sixth editor in the Post's 100 year history - and his task is to embrace modernity and attract a new audience without alienating loyal readers.
