After 28 long summers, Scotland have qualified for The World Cup. In this special episode, Mr Downie is joined by the voice of Scottish football Hugh Keevins to explore why football means so much to so many people and why football memories can last a life time. They are joined by Mark Beaumont to chat with Craig Ferguson who is walking across America from LA to Boston in a kilt to raise money for SAMH, and speak to Keith Salmon of Tuckahoe Turf about what it takes to grow the perfect World Cup grass pitch. Former Scotland legend, Tosh McKinlay shares his experience of playing against both Brazil and Morocco the last time Scotland featured at a World Cup in 1998. This is more than football.
