The Truth Behind the Tartan
Whether you live in Surbiton or Scrabster, there is a sporting chance that you have a Granny called MacLeod or Macpherson or Mac-'Something'. Do you care? An American tycoon came to Scotland - to find to his delight that he was a long-lost Clan Chieftain. Another Clan Chieftain is a West Indian living in Jamaica. So what price the Clan system in Scotland today? Is it a sentimental memory of Jacobite days - or a tartan-tinted tourist trap? Magnus Magnusson meets the people who keep the Clan idea alive.

(Marius Goring says Be My Guest, Radio 1 and 2 Thursday, 8.2 pm)
A series of six programmes giving a view of man and his expanding society seen in the archaeological landscape of the South.
Early man was a simple hunter, foraging for his food as and where he could. But he was displaced by the later farming communities who, more than 4,000 years ago, began to make an indelible mark on the countryside of England.
By the time of the Roman occupation, in fact, huge areas of forest had been cleared and parts of Britain looked much as they do today. Even so, archaeologists can read the land to this day and find out what man grew and how he lived.
Presented by Professor Barry Cunliffe from Chapman's Pool, Dorset
