The Song and the Story

BBC One
on BBC One London

with Isla St Clair
Rogues and Rascals
The first of four programmes
ISLA ST CLAIR could sing before she could walk and has been singing ever since. In this new series Isla makes a musical journey round Britain to sing some of the folk songs she loves and tell the stories behind them. The stories give us a fascinating glimpse into the lives of ordinary people 100 years ago. Did you know smuggling was a respectable business, that the Glasgow-London stage coach needed 120 horses to make its 60-hour journey or that the most successful highwayman of all time was a woman?
