BBC Radio Scotland - Stark Talk, John Michie

Burma-born Scottish actor John Michie talks about his education, marriage and career.

Burma-born Scottish actor John Michie, who has appeared in Taggart, Coronation Street and Holby City, talks to Edi Stark about his education, marriage and career.

Edi Stark returns with a new series of compelling conversation starting with John Michie, one of the best known faces on television. 
For 12 years he played DI Robbie Ross in STV's detective drama Taggart. He was ne'er do well and murderer Karl Munro on Coronation Street and plays consultant neurosurgeon Guy Self in Holby City. 

In a fantastically entertaining half hour, The Burma born actor tells Edi why he believes his boarding school education was 'not healthy,' how he and his wife, former Hot Gossip dancer Carol Fletcher, got together over a packet of crisps 28 years ago, and he reveals his scary real life realisation that acting can be 'Dangerous'.
