Under The Kilt

This week, we’re not ashamed, we just have to return some video tapes…to the naughty part of the video shop.  Writer, director and producer, John Fairfield, is taking us through the cheap beaded curtain and into the history of Video Nasties, The Obscene Publications Act, and The Video Recordings Act of 1984. But fear not, Adam, Nat & John will NOT be censored, not by Mary Whitehouse, not by MP Graham Bright, and certainly not by Adam’s Gran.

More on John:

John Fairfield (@MrFly3oy), is a Scottish (duh) award-winning writer, director and BAFTA nominated producer.

Adam, Nat, Claire, Big Rachel, Margaret McIver, Catherine Cranston AND a sexy Centurion ghost who may or may not resemble Arthur Darvill? It’s getting pretty crowded on this, the first-ever episode of Shared History: Under The Kilt. Join us as we take on three exceptional Glaswegian women. Well, not actually ‘take them on,’ they’re rather intimidating, tbh. But, we are learning about them, thanks to our lovely guest, author and screenwriter, CS Duffy.

More on Claire:

Claire Duffy, aka CS Duffy (@CSDuffyWriter), is a Glasgow-based author and screenwriter, but she's kind of from all over? She's the author of Glasgow Kiss series of crime thrillers and The Stranger for Storytel. Her new book, Before Again, an urban fantasy/adventure set in Glasgow is available for preorder and is currently being serialised for free via her website here.  It features both Rachel and Kate and I'm sure Maggie will make an appearance at some point in the series!
