Eat the Town
Dazza and Natalie are in Angus in search of the best day out Arbroath has to offer. They are eating locally recommended meals and scoring each other's choices in the hopes of taking home the secret prize. In a town famous for smokies, the pair are probably expecting to eat some fish. What they might not be ready for is ripping the fish's head off themselves! And they get an Arbroath history lesson unlike any other.
Life on the Bay

The Firm
The Firm searches for a route to justice for Katie Allen, a young woman who took her own life in Polmont Prison. In 2018, after pleading guilty to causing serious injury by dangerous driving and drink-driving, Katie, who had no previous convictions and was a third-year student at the University of Glasgow, was sentenced to 16 months in prison. While serving her sentence, Katie’s family believe that she was bullied. At the age of 21, and due to be released on a tag in less than a month, Katie was found dead in her cell, having taken her own life. It is Katie’s family’s firm belief that the prison system in which she died needs urgent change. In the pursuit of reform on behalf of their clients, Aamer and the team must face the fact that the Scottish Prison Service is immune from prosecution. In another prison-related case, Aamer represents the family of Calum Inglis, an inmate who died alone from Covid in his prison cell. His family allege that Callum begged prison officers for help for four days before he died.

My Kind of Town
Ian Hamilton and his guide dog Major head to one of the most westerly towns in the UK - Campbeltown, in the stunning Mull of Kintyre. Ian really finds his wheels as he uses a side-by-side electric tricycle to explore the town, hitches a ride in a tractor, and even gets behind the wheel himself on one of the longest runways in Europe. But it's not all hard work for Ian as he tries his hand at blind golf at the world-famous Machrihanish course and helps on the production line with the woman who made the chocolates for the Oscars gift bag. And, of course, it would be rude to go to one of the great whisky regions of Scotland without sampling a local dram.
