Limbs in the Loch: Catching a Killer
William Beggs is wanted in connection to the murder of Barry Wallace but has fled the country and handed himself in to police in Amsterdam, hoping to benefit from their robust extradition laws. He claims that he won’t stand a fair trial due to the press coverage of the case in Scotland. While extradition proceedings take place, Strathclyde Police use the time to build a strong case against Beggs. They return to his flat in the hope of finding additional forensic evidence. At the same time, they uncover more attacks linked to Beggs and make a crucial breakthrough when a new witness comes forward. Back in Amsterdam, Beggs is about to learn his fate – will he be extradited to the UK to stand trial for the murder of Barry Wallace.

Limbs in the Loch: Catching a Killer
After 12 months of legal wrangling, William Beggs is finally extradited from the Netherlands to Scotland, where he will be tried for the murder of 18-year-old Barry Wallace at the high court of Edinburgh. Beggs denies the killing, but blood samples belonging to Wallace were found in his flat. The Crown must now prove beyond reasonable doubt that Beggs is the killer and will be relying on a former friend of the accused to give evidence. In accordance with Scots law, the Crown can’t inform the jury of Beggs’s previous convictions. Will William Beggs be found guilty, or will he walk free.

Loop
Tessa MacKenzie studied illustration at university, but it was when she worked in pubs and bars that her fascination with stained glass started. During lockdown, Tessa watched YouTube videos on glass artwork and became obsessed.

We meet Tessa in one of the pubs that first inspired her, and join her in her studio as she creates a unique new glass work, from coloured pen design to soldered and finished lampshade. We see Tessa piece together her glass jigsaw and witness her slightly unorthodox approach to creating stained glass, which includes microwave melting and snapping the glass into shape.

Our Lives
Documentary that tells the story of the inspiring, thriving, Scottish village of Inverie on the Knoydart peninsula. Twenty-five years ago, the local community pulled together to buy the land from private owners, securing its future for them and the many who travel there. At the heart of the village is the community-owned pub, The Old Forge. But for those who wish to visit, it's a 30-mile, three-day trek through three munros, or a ferry from the mainland. In the summer months, only around five people a day take the high road to get there, for the incomparable hike and views. They well and truly deserve their pint when they arrive! We follow friends Ally and Glynis as they take on the treacherous journey to Scotland's remotest pub, interwoven with stories from some of the residents of this magical peninsula. One of them, Will, visited for a weekend 13 years ago and never left, such is the draw of this place that is known as Scotland’s last great wilderness.
