Jack Docherty is one of Scotland's most innovative comedy talents, loved for his portrayal as Chief Miekelson in Scot Squad and his cult classic characters in Absolutely. However, despite having a cult classic TV series and becoming a late-night host, launching a channel with none other than the Spice Girls, he nearly gave it all up.

We hear how, if it weren’t for a chance lunch cancellation, Absolutely might never have made it to the screen.

Featuring a special interview with Jack and other key people from throughout his career. Show less
