Breaking The News, Drygate, Glasgow. Thursday 4th December, 2025

Host: Des Clarke

Panellists:
Elaine Malcolmson
Susie Mccabe
Ahir Shah
Chris Thorburn

This week's audience question: "What is your favourite Scottish Word and why?" Examples: stooshie, eejit, blootered, stramash.

Mashed-up question: Fallout from the Budget: Scots and Gaelic become recognised official languages.

Also discussed: Your Party, Scottish words, Kiefer Sutherland bringing panto to the US, and the entire village of Dull being offered a publicity stunt holiday to Vienna. 

Ahir's English accent is so plummy; his attempts at speaking Scottish words sounded so wrong. Elaine Malcomson often killed with her deadpan responses. Susie is, nowadays, ostensibly a national comic treasure. 

We were guided to seats near the front and had a camera pointed at us regularly, so there's every chance we'll make it onto the TV recording at some point. 

Ticket Price: Free from BBC Shows and Tours  

Addendum:
Looks like we made the cut.
