Learn! Sylish!

The nation’s favourite comedians and entertainers take us on a trip down memory lane; exploring their formative years in the land that made them. Jane McCarry, Des Clark, Fred MacAulay, Julia Sutherland and Brian Taylor, amongst others, remember School Days. Whilst Martel Maxwell, Raymond Mearns, Janey Godley and TJ Singh, amongst others, remember teenage fashions. Sharing the highs and lows of Scottish teachers, Burns recitals, (long) coach trips & bad behaviour. The unique phenomenon of Scottish country dancing is examined, whilst asking the important question: whatever happened to PE? And Sharing the pleasure (and occasional horrendous pain) of hand-me-downs! As well as the joys of dressing up, finding rebel styles and celebrating Scotland’s finest fabrics. Our comedians also deal with the often-overlooked phenomenon of ‘Up Kilting’ and how men have learnt to live with it.
