Aonghas Pàdraig Caimbeul a' bruidhinn mu bheatha, agus mun obair aige, ann an còmhradh farsaing ri Maighstir Cailean MacAonghais. A' tòiseachadh ann an Uibhist a Deas, do am buineadh Aonghas Pàdraig, tha e a' toirt iomradh air mar a shoirbhich leis mar neach-naidheachd aig Telebhisean Grampian, air na bliadhnachan duilich a bh' aige 's e a' fulang fo bhuaidh na dibhe agus an uairsin air mar a tha e air a bhith a' faighinn cliù mar sgrìobhaiche, cleasaiche agus mar bhàrd. Le daoine leithid Màiri Anna NicUalraig, Mìcheal Marra, Cathy NicDhòmhnaill agus Al Kennedy a' leughadh a chuid bàrdachd, cha bu chòir an cothrom seo gus èisteachd ri cuid dhen sgrìobhadh as ùire ann an Gàidhlig a chall.

Angus Peter Campbell discusses his life and work in a frank interview with Father Colin MacInnes. Starting with his roots in South Uist, Angus charts his early success as a journalist at Grampian TV, through turbulent years battling alcohol addiction, to his acclamation as a novelist, actor and poet. With performances from Mary Ann Kennedy, Michael Marra, Cathy MacDonald and Al Kennedy, this celebration of modern Gaelic writing is a treat not to be missed.
