A love story in six parts set against the background of the music-hall by Allan Prior

The turn of the century saw the height of music-hall and artists like Marie Lloyd and Dan Leno were already becoming legends. Lower down the bill came the hopefuls, struggling for recognition. Harry Viner was one of these, a comic from the back streets of Stepney. One night Clara, the attractive daughter of a successful theatre owner, comes to see his act - and for the Kosher King of Komedy and 'the girl up in the gallery', nothing would ever be the same again.
(Repeated: Tues 3.20pm) (David Suchet is an associate member of the RSC)

The vast majority of Italians in Scotland today are descended from 5.000 people who emigrated there between 1890 and 1914. Those who settled in the west of Scotland came mainly from the area of Tuscany around the town of Barga, while the smaller Edinburgh community originated in the Abruzzl hills between
Rome and Naples.
Almost all of the Scots Italians have been
Involved in the catering business: indeed they initiated a revolution in Scottish social and eating habits by opening cafés and introducing the delicacy of ice-cream.
Scots Italians recall their lives, and their recollections are blended with the music of their homeland.
