Close Encounters
We have a lot of new comedy coming on 大象传媒 Radio Scotland in the next few months, including a special Day of Comedy to brighten the gloom between Christmas and New Year.
Look out for our new sketch show North By North-North, a surreal visit to a Scottish Island with The Clan and, first up, more episodes of the situation comedies we piloted last year.
The photograph above was taken during a recording of Close which is set in a Glasgow tenement. Through the magic of radio , the programme takes us into a seedy world of petty jealousies and back-biting neighbours. It's all suitably squalid.
I'm not sure this photograph of Elaine MacKenzie-Ellis and the rest of the cast conveys that...although the studio does look a bit dark. Looks like someone forgot to feed the meter.
