The Chief Does Democracy

Duration: 58 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC ScotlandLatest broadcast: on BBC Scotland HD

Before the public goes to the polls, Scotland’s most fairminded man, Chief Commissioner Cameron Miekelson, straddles Scotia on a democratic odyssey.

Mixing comedy, politics and travelogue, Miekelson grills party leaders, meets the great Scottish people, questions candidates, talks truth to power and covers all the big issues ahead of the Scottish Parliament election. The Chief also examines what the notion of democracy means today. Remaining neutral throughout, Scotland’s ultimate policeman uncovers all the crucial evidence you need before you cast your vote for the Scottish Parliament. Show less
