The Enthusiast
Nearly forty years ago Jenny Brown of Glasgow visited Shetland and fell in love both with the islands and with young John Gilbertson. They got married, made two documentary films, and went round the world in a Baby Austin exhibiting them. Now widowed, Jenny Gilbertson is once again making films - this time for television - about the Shetland pony.

Cutty Sark ' But Tarn kent what was what fu' brawlie
There was ae winsome wench and walie:
Her cutty sark, o' Paisley ham, That while a lassie she had worn,
In longitude tho' sorely scanty, It was her best, and she was vauntie '
One hundred years ago the Cutty Sark was launched at Dumbarton on the Clyde. Designed and built by Scotsmen for a Scots owner, she sailed out of the Port of London to become the leading ship in the Australian wool trade. In those days that meant the fastest ship in the world. Today she is preserved in a permanent berth at Greenwich. This programme recalls a little of the story that made the Cutty Sark the greatest clipper of all time. Narrators:
JIM BOWES , DONALD MACLEOD JIM COUPER , SHEILA LAW
Written and produced by EDWARD HOLMES
