BBC Radio Scotland - The Afternoon Show, Screenwriter Simon Carlyle, Poet Angus Peter Campbell, a Live Session with Kohla, and Tuesday Review

Simon Carlyle on his new show, Hebridean poet Angus Peter Campbell, and Kohla in session.

Simon Carlyle on his new comedy series about Alan Carr's childhood, Hebridean poet Angus Peter Campbell on his new novel, and Tuesday Review covering this week's new telly.

Award-winning writer from Ayr Simon Carlyle talks to Janice about co-producing the new ITV comedy series that's all about comedian Alan Carr's life, Changing Ends.

Scottish singer-songwriter Kohla is live in session. 

Hebridean poet and writer Angus Peter Campbell joins the show to talk about his new novel Electricity, about a Granny reliving her upbringing on the Western Isles by writing and doodling to her granddaughter in Australia. 

And, Tuesday Review is back! Janice is joined by Brian Taylor and Susan Morrison. This week they are reviewing White House Plumbers, the new HBO series that satirises those who spied on the Democratic National Committee and got caught up in the Watergate Scandal; The Gallow's Pole, the new BBC series that tells the true story of a group of Yorkshire Weavers from the 18th Century that set up a criminal enterprise and committed the biggest fraud in UK history; and Fubar, the loud and outrageous action-spy-comedy from Netflix which sees Arnold Schwarzenegger reluctantly team up with his daughter to retrieve some weapons of mass destruction.
