This week she is joined by Dundee born Hollywood actor of stage and screen Brian Cox. Scots Makar Jackie Kay chats to Susan and performs her recently penned work New Era. Chief commissioner Cameron Miekelson from Scot Squad delivers another message to the people of Scotland whilst working from home up and coming comedians from across Scotland share their best jokes.

We find out about how an Aquarium in Macduff, Aberdeenshire is looking after its marine life during lockdown and enjoying a worldwide reach with its online 'live dives'.
