For the 100th episode, I talk to a special guest, the brilliant comedian, JACK DOCHERTY. Docherty is a Scottish comedian, actor, and writer.  He first performed at the 1980 Edinburgh Fringe with the comedy sketch group The Bodgers (with Moray Hunter, Gordon Kennedy and Peter Baikie).  Docherty and Hunter became staff writers for the BBC radio comedy contributing to shows such as Radio Active, Week Ending and The News Huddlines. They were teamed with Norwenna Banks and John Sparkes and went onto make four series of the successful sketch show, Absolutely, for Channel 4 between 1989 and 1992. Also in the eighties, his writing skills helped make Spitting Image, Alas Smith & Jones, Vic Reeves Big Night Out, and The Lenny Henry Show, all major hits.  In 1997 (until 1999), he was part of the launch of Channel 5, becoming Britain's first five nights a week chat show host on The Jack Docherty Show.  From 2014, he has memorably starred as Chief Miekelson in BBC Scotland's Scot Squad, winning awards for the part, and then wrote and starred in radio and television versions of Stop Start In 2018 he returned to the Edinburgh Fringe with new solo shows in 2018 and 2022, and has a new show, David Bowie and Me: Parallel Lives in 2023. I have many happy memories of sitting in the audience at recordings of The Jack Docherty Show at The Whitehall Theatre in London (now Trafalgar Theatre) from 1997 to 1999.  I have also seen Docherty perform for Stop Start at the BBC Radio Theatre in 2015, and his solo shows Miekelson and McGlashan: Serious Men at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2018 and Nothing But, at the Soho Theatre, London in 2022.

The seventh album by Arctic Monkeys finds Alex Turner and the lads continuing the lounge-rock direction that began on 2018's Tranquillity Base Hotel & Casino with a tight taut song cycle of baroque longing and cinematic style. Disappointing certain fans who hungered for the arch desert riffage of Humbug or the slick maximalist swagger of AM, The Car instead offers a dazzling smorgasbord of impenetrable inside jokes, straight-faced flared trouser funk and uber-vulnerable falsetto declarations of luxury loneliness. Due to extenuating circumstances, the podcast flies sans-Liam Withnail this week for a special non-list episode with Christopher Macarthur-Boyd instead discussing the record in question with Fife's own Stuart McPherson. Stuart is an actor and story producer of BBC Scotland's Scot Squad, as well as a stand-up comedian and co-host of the podcasts What's The Script? and Some Laugh. Enjoy!

With the BAFTAs just gone and the Oscars approaching, there's one prize that's got everyone talking this awards season. Thankfully, Adam is on hand to reveal the four finalists for this year's Golden Stauner award, recognising Scottish football's most handsome figures. Joining him at the ceremony are journalist and author Neil Drysdale as well as comedian and actor Stuart McPherson. Neil talks about the two players Jim Goodwin should be building his Aberdeen side around, why Scotland's 1978 World Cup might not be our worst, being the target of a Jimmy Nicholl grudge, one of Pittodrie's most memorable nights, what he learned from writing a Walter Smith biography, a bad night for Billy Connolly in Aberdeen, the short-lived Stephen Glass and Scott Brown era, covering France '98 and the Aberdeenshire footballer who played a role in Juventus' first league title. Stuart discusses his dream Efe Ambrose scenario, Dunfermline memories, a Coronation Street star's East End Park cameo, existential heckling, the Little Mix memory he shares with Scott Brown, performing stand-up, acting in and writing for Scot Squad, the legacy of Peep Show, Danny Dyer's football gaffes, an unusual Harry Potter mention on his CV and his idea for a Scottish football version of Space Jam. Adam enlists his guests to help him debunk a myth involving Willie Collum, puts questions to them from Twitter and challenges them to identify a truly blood-curdling Scottish football shriek.  For more information about Old Firm Facts, go to: www.thebiglight.com/oldfirmfacts
