BBC Radio Ulster - Kintra, A sweet treat behind the first window of Kintra’s Advent Calendar, writing Ulster-Scots in a new story, and connecting to 007.

A treat for Kintra’s Advent Calendar, a tale of 007 and Ulster-Scots in a new story.

A sweet treat behind the first ‘window’ of Kintra’s Advent Calendar, using Ulster-Scots in a contemporary new story collection and how DNA led to a yarn about 007.

For the first Sunday in Advent, the Kintra Calendar’s first window is opened to reveal a sweet surprise;  Jonnie’s  DNA trail led to a relation in the film world in Holywood, and a connection to a favourite Scottish spy and Helen’s been chatting to a multi-linguistic author who’s included Ulster-Scots in a new collection of stories.  Rab completes the team… along with whoever is revealed behind the window!
If you’ve a good yarn to share, a tune to request or an Ulster-Scots event to promote then get in touch with the team by email at kintra@bbc.co.uk .
