La capitale écossaise et ses décors médiévaux ont inspiré J.K. Rowling pour la saga Harry Potter. Destination de vacances prisée par les fans, Édimbourg regorge de marches guidées et de magasins dédiés à l'univers du sorcier à lunettes. Mais depuis quelques années, l'autrice désormais milliardaire a mis sa fortune au service de l'idéologie transphobe, au point de contraindre la justice à revenir sur les droits des femmes transgenres. Le secteur du tourisme se voit forcé de s'adapter, entre demande commerciale et respect des minorités. De notre correspondante à Londres, Le château millénaire d'Édimbourg se découpe sur le ciel gris d'Écosse, à quelques centaines de mètres du cimetière de Greyfriars. Connu pour sa statue du chien Bobby, l'endroit accueille chaque année un demi-million de touristes vêtus de capes noires et d'écharpes en laine aux couleurs des maisons de l'école (fictive) de sorcellerie de Poudlard. Les pierres tombales portent des noms familiers pour les fans de la saga littéraire Harry Potter : Thomas Riddell, Scrymgeour, Moodie, McGonagall... Plusieurs fois par semaine, Christine dirige des marches guidées à travers le cimetière. « La popularité de ces tours m'étonne toujours, après toutes ces années, s'émerveille la jeune femme, vêtue d'un uniforme de velours noir et vert émeraude. Édimbourg ressemble tellement à Poudlard, c'est merveilleux pour se plonger dans l'univers de Harry Potter ! » Parmi les participants, beaucoup ont grandi avec les livres. Le montant des marches Potter Trails est libre. Et depuis quelques années, l'entreprise reverse une partie de ses profits à des ONG qui défendent les droits des personnes transgenres. « C'est une manière d'afficher clairement que nos marches accueillent tout le monde, sans distinction de genre », explique Christine. Ce qui pourrait sembler évident relève pourtant du nécessaire. Depuis quelques années, la créatrice de l'univers Harry Potter, J.K. Rowling, s'est distinguée sur les réseaux sociaux par ses positions conservatrices transphobes. Plus inquiétant, elle, à qui la marque Harry Potter rapporte chaque année plus de 50 millions de dollars, a financé le recours en justice d'une association écossaise contre des réformes. En avril dernier, elle a obtenu que la justice considère les femmes transgenres comme des hommes. Depuis, les fans s'interrogent : faut-il continuer à consommer du contenu, et donc verser de l'argent à une autrice dont l'idéologie est loin de faire consensus ? « La moralité des livres est complexe, et bien entendu loin d'être idéale, admet la guide. Mais de nombreux lecteurs, y compris ceux qui ont grandi avec Harry Potter, ont trouvé du réconfort dans le message de la série : le fait de se sentir différent et d'enfin trouver un endroit où on se sent bien, et la résistance contre la haine. C'est ce qui nous motive. » L'une des rues principales de la vieille ville d'Édimbourg, Victoria Street, possède un café qui a abrité les premières séances d'écriture de J.K. Rowling et lui aurait servi d'inspiration pour la rue commerçante des fournitures magiques, le Chemin de Traverse. Devant la boutique officielle, les fans font la queue pour acheter une baguette magique, une peluche, une écharpe. Après une demi-heure d'attente, Estelle sort du magasin, les mains vides : « J'aime relire les livres, revisionner les films... Mais je ne cautionne pas les propos de l'autrice et je ne veux plus lui verser d'argent. » Alors, la jeune Normande, vêtue d'un pull de la maison Serdaigle, s'adapte : « J'achète d'occasion, et je me suis mise au tricot pour fabriquer mon pull ! » Du côté des militants LGBTQ+, certains membres de la communauté appellent plutôt au boycott de tout ce qui touche à l'univers magique du sorcier à la cicatrice en éclair. Les associations, elles, préfèrent ne pas évoquer les positions de l'autrice pour ne pas participer à sa visibilité. Dans cette démarche, Fraser Horn a décidé de totalement repenser son offre de marches guidées dans Édimbourg. Ce jeune papa s'est lancé comme guide indépendant au début de l'année, et propose à l'époque des tours Harry Potter et des marches LGBTQ, sur les lieux importants dans l'histoire des minorités sexuelles. « Mais en avril [quand la Cour suprême a indiqué ne plus reconnaître le genre auto-déclaré], les positions de J.K. Rowling sont devenues indéfendables, et j'ai compris que ces deux marches n'avaient plus leur place sur le même flyer », explique-t-il. À l'approche du mois des Fiertés – le mois de juin, consacré à la visibilité de la communauté LGBTQ+ –, le guide décide de remplacer ses tours Harry Potter par de nouveaux horaires pour ses marches LGBTQ+, ce qui suscite un fort intérêt médiatique. « Certains ont pensé que c'était un coup de communication de ma part, mais j'ai tout de même lâché un tiers de mon activité, pour respecter mes valeurs », précise-t-il. Depuis, Fraser propose de manière permanente plus de marches LGBTQ+, où il en profite pour donner plus de visibilité aux personnalités homosexuelles et transgenres de l'histoire édimbourgeoise, celles-là même que J.K. Rowling cherche à effacer. « J'emmène mes groupes dans la cour du collège de médecine, pour leur montrer la plaque commémorative du Dr. James Barry : un homme transgenre, né dans une famille pauvre, qui est devenu l'un des meilleurs chirurgiens de la Royal Navy », raconte-t-il. La transidentité du docteur n'a été révélée qu'à sa mort, à l'indifférence de ceux qui l'avaient connu. Du côté du secteur touristique et à l'échelle de toute l'Écosse, les syndicats notent une légère baisse du tourisme liée à Harry Potter, au profit d'autres séries comme Outlander, mais se préparent à une recrudescence des séjours sur les lieux de tournage des films, avec la sortie d'une nouvelle série inspirée des livres sur HBO en 2027.

In this episode, Leslie sits down with writer and editor Daisy Prince to explore the real history behind Outlander. Daisy—whose work has appeared in The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Vanity Fair, Vogue, The Telegraph, and Tatler—takes us deep into the fascinating story of Clan Fraser, the real-life Scottish family that inspired the hit series.This conversation spans centuries — from 14th-century Scotland, when Sir Simon Fraser fought alongside William Wallace against the English, to the real events and characters that inspired Outlander. Among them is the infamous 11th Lord Lovat, whose beheading famously gave rise to the phrase “laughing my head off.”Leslie and Daisy also talk about the dashing Brigadier Simon “Shimi” Fraser, a World War II hero who led his men into the D-Day invasion—bagpiper and all. Shimi had a bounty on his head from Hitler, and Winston Churchill once described him as “the most beautiful man who ever cut a throat.”If you're an Outlander fan (or just love a good Scottish saga), you're going to love this one.

As Vesper and Maela cross the lawless Great Bridge, they are forced to deal with the desperate chaos of the city, clearing their path with the cold, brutal efficiency that only two Blades can command.Episode 2: An Old Quarter WelcomeAs Vesper and Mayla enter the Old Quarter, they discover not chaos but a surprisingly organized refugee operation run by mysterious figures in black. Their reunion with Captain Coode reveals shocking developments: Rogers has somehow become a captain for three opposing guilds, while the Guildmaster himself has vanished into the Upper Quarter with an enigmatic Outlander woman.Episode 3: A Thief at HeartAlard challenges the established order from within Polo's magnificent rooftop garden. During a routine agricultural report, Alard's careful questioning exposes troubling inconsistencies in how resources are distributed between the Inner and Outer Fields. As tensions rise between the former guildmaster and Polo's trusted deputy, the conversation turns to Rogers, whose place as Polo's choice as Guildmaster Craft no longer seems certain.Episode 4: A Single Life's WorkKray drives his prison guards to the brink with increasingly absurd demands for assistance. What seems like the petulant complaints of an elderly prisoner masks a cunning scheme, as Kray orchestrates a calculated campaign of annoyance from within his luxurious cell. But beneath his theatrical helplessness lies a deeper purpose - one that could reunite him with a certain assistant. As the guards' patience wears dangerously thin, Kray's true objective begins to take shape.Episode 5: The Missing KeyRaef and Kray uncover Pietro's hidden journals, only to find their pages filled with an indecipherable code. As they pour over volumes of encrypted text, mysterious margin notes begin to reveal themselves - including an enigmatic symbol of a serpent devouring its own tail.

Sky NZ Originals x BBC drama series The Ridge, premiering on Neon and Sky Open (and in the UK, BBC iPlayer) on 21 October.Shot on location between New Zealand and Scotland, The Ridge stars BAFTA Scotland award-winning Scots actress Lauren Lyle (Karen Pirie, Outlander) in the lead role of Mia, who is fleeing addiction and leaving behind a professional life in tatters in Scotland. She accepts a wedding invitation from her estranged sister in New Zealand – only to find the would-be-bride dead upon arrival. Caught up in grief and pulled by a dark attraction to her late-sister’s fiancé Ewan played by New Zealand star Jay Ryan (Territory, Top of the Lake, It Chapter 2), Mia soon finds that familiarity among a small community breeds secrets and tensions, endangering the brittle fabric of the town itself.Speaking on location at the start of the shoot, Lauren Lyle said: "I'm very excited to be bringing this strange, gothic, psychological thriller to life. Mia is such a fascinating character in a very weird world which is quite delicious to play. It feels like something very bad is going to play out.. in a good way!! New Zealand is also a second home to me so it's a joy to be back."Jay Ryan added: ‘I couldn’t refuse a trip back home for this production that brilliantly weaves our cultures and folklore together in a tense and riveting series. This really is an ambitious work with characters that will leave you guessing at every turn.Gavin Smith, Commissioning Editor, BBC Scotland said: “We’re delighted that The Ridge has started filming. This is a hugely exciting commission for BBC Scotland and is an example of our ambition to look beyond borders to bring high end quality drama to audiences not just in Scotland but across the world. The Ridge has a first class international team bringing it to life which we are proud to be a part of.”Thomas Robins, Head of Sky NZ Originals said: “Sky NZ Originals is extremely proud to team up with BBC Scotland on this co-commission. With Great Southern Studios at the helm, and Lauren and Jay leading the cast, The Ridge is sure to be an unmissable, world-class drama.”Created by acclaimed novelist Nora Chassler and BAFTA Scotland-winning producer David Murdoch and co-written with Alan Campbell and award-winning New Zealand writers Kate McDermott and Jess Sayer.Directed by BAFTA-winning Scottish director Douglas Mackinnon (Good Omens, Line of Duty, Doctor Who) and Emmy-nominated New Zealand director Robyn Grace (Sweet Tooth, Power Rangers, Spartacus). The series’ executive producers include Boat Rocker’s Ivan Schneeberg (Beacon 23) & David Fortier (Slip), Jon Rutherford (Bet), and Erik Pack (Video Nasty). The Ridge was commissioned by Louise Thornton, Head of Commissioning, BBC Scotland and Thomas Robins, Head of Sky NZ Originals.The Ridge is produced by New Zealand’s leading drama makers Great Southern Studios and Glasgow-based Sinner Films for Sky New Zealand Originals and BBC Scotland. Boat Rocker will manage global sales.It is being made with the support of New Zealand On Air, the NZ Screen Production Rebate and Screen Scotland.The Ridge will be available to audiences on BBC iPlayer, BBC Scotland, Sky Open and NEON later this year.

On this special bonus episode of Scran we take you to the launch of Galloway distillery. Previously the Crafty Distillery in Newton Stewart, actor and drinks aficionado Sam Heughan has purchased the business to develop his Sassanach brand of spirits further. In this episode you'll hear Sam giving a speech at the launch and Rosalind's chat with him afterwards where he shares his childhood memories of the area and his hopes for the distillery.

If you're after the latest reviews of some three-row crossovers of varying sizes, then you're listening to the right podcast! The Unnamed Automotive Podcast starts off with Benjamin's review of the 2026 Mitsubishi Outlander, loaded with three rows and a gas-powered motor, the Outlander begins to boil Sami's blood due to its lack of competitiveness in a field full of excellent options. Benjamin has more than a few nice things to say about the Outlander, but none of them are about the barely-useable third row. Then Sami chimes in about his plug-in experience with the 2025.5 Volvo XC90. Loaded with 455 ponies and 30-ish miles of range, the XC90 is sure to be a hit. But then Sami's attention turns to the Swedish automakers attempts at designing an infotainment system, and things fall apart a bit. While not as bad as the EX90, the XC90 has a few glitches of its own that make it hard to recommend. Then it's time for a classic Nissan Pathfinder cow adventure. Thanks for listening!
