Is it time to crack down on alcohol advertising?

Also in the programme ex-paratrooper Chris Lewis, who walked the coast of the UK, finding love in Scotland along the way, plus is it ever right to sing out loud in the theatre?

PHONE-IN
Whisky bosses are warning that new proposals to restrict alcohol marketing will be devastating for the industry. Campaigners say health must come before profit.   
Leading drinks companies have joined forces to challenge the Scottish Government  on moves which could restrict alcohol advertising and marketing.
But some groups such as Alcohol Focus say it would have a positive impact.  If you were watching the Six Nations rugby at the weekend, you'll likely have seen plenty of alcohol brands advertising their products.  The government says they want to hear the industry concerns but they want to reduce alcohol related deaths and hospitalisations in Scotland.
