Watching Ourselves: 60 Years of Television in Scotland

SINOPSIS

Greg Hemphill celebrates 60 years of television in Scotland, with an exploration of the power of the documentary to give ordinary people a voice. Programmes such as "Lilybank' and `The Scheme' presented those living on the breadline, while a riveting documentary about Barlinnie's ground-breaking Special Unit gave a hearing to some of Scotland"s most notorious prisoners.
