Documentary looking at the issue of equality for women. Christina McGonigle embarks on a special road trip to explore what has changed in the last century and what lays ahead.
Le boireannach na Pr矛omh Mhinistear ann an Alba airson a' chiad uair a-riamh, agus iomadach boireannach eile aig 脿rd 矛re ann am poilitigs agus nar coimhearnsachdan, tha sinn a' toirt s霉il dhl霉th air co-ionannachd airson boireannaich ann an Alba.
Tha 霉idh mh貌ir air a bhith aig Cairistiona Nic Chonghail ann an sgeulachd nam boireannach ann an Alba fad greis a-nis. Leig i dheth a dreuchd mar neach-teagaisg aig oiltihigh Obar Dheathain bho chionn ghoirid, agus tha i a-nise a' gabhail turas s貌nraichte tron d霉thaich agus a' me貌rachadh air na h-atharrachaidhean a bh'ann san linn a dh'fhalbh - gu h-eachdraidheil agus nar coimhearsnachdan - agus a' faighneachd d猫 an t-slighe a th' air thoiseach?
Ann an Sealtainn aig an fh猫is bhliadhnail teine, Up Helly Aa, tha an Guizer Jarl os cionn treubh Lochlannaich fhiadhaich. Son a' chiad uair a-riamh air aon eilean 's e boireanach, Lesely Simpson, a tha a' faighinn na h-urraim seo. Tha Cairistiona cuideachd a' d猫anamh air an Eilean Sgitheanach far a bheil clann-nigheann an eilein a' toirt buaidh sh貌nraichte air sp貌rs a bha riamh air fhaicinn mar saoghal nam fear - iomain.
At a time when Scotland has its first ever female first minister, and when many other women are leading the way in politics and in our society generally, we take a look at the issue of equality for women in 2015.
Christina McGonigle, who recently retired from her job as a lecturer at the University of Aberdeen, has long had an interest in the role of women in Scottish society and embarks on a special road trip to explore what's changed in the last century, both historically and culturally, and asks what the way ahead is.
In Shetland, at the annual Up Helly Aa fire festival, the guizer jarl leads a fearsome squad of Vikings. For the first time ever on one island, this hugely prestigious role will be taken by a woman, Lesely Simpson.
Christina also heads for Skye, where women are truly making their sporting mark in the previously male-dominated world of shinty.
