  1. It's 51% No according to here... http://scotgoespop.blogspot.com/2019/09/first-post-boris-scottish-poll-puts-snp.html?m=1
  2. As well as his grunts of effort. The big board and cup draw must've taken up over 50% of the programme!
  3. Doesn't need to be deliberate anymore though.
  4. That's right I remember watching it. Insane midweek TV. It was during the last days of Tory rule and pre the 97 referendum, so we were clearly a bit antsy.
  5. George I was of Stuart descent. Eg. Bonnie Prince Charlie and the Duke of Cumberland were distant cousins. King James VI of Scotland was the queen's great great great great....... grandfather.
  6. Yes, watch it here... https://movingimage.nls.uk/film/1113 Given that she's descended from the Stuarts, Liz probably should have to move her permanent residence to Scotland after independence.
  7. Well she's still head of state of the long since independent Canada, Australia and New Zealand so I can't see why we'd initially be any different. And given that one of the kingdoms in the United Kingdom is Scotland with a royal bloodline stretching back to the 9th century it could be seen to be historically significant for Scotland to remain a monarchy.
  8. Brexit is a 21st century Darien venture...
  9. He was always going to hoover up the gammony vote in Scotland so it wouldn't be a great surprise.
  10. 40% of Labour members back Scottish independence... https://www.heraldscotland.com/news/17788384.four-10-labour-members-back-scottish-independence-poll-finds/
  11. It was actually 50 years ago today, 21st July.
  12. Read a great article yesterday about photography on the Apollo missions... https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2019/jul/17/greatest-photos-ever-moon-landing-shots-artistic-masterpieces
  13. Back in the old days when I watched cricket regularly, the tie breaker was always least wickets conceded. I guess that's changed now to increase the chances of Super Over excitement.
  14. Tremendous catch, and understated celebration.
  15. More like 0.3% I thought it was a great programme last night too. Loads of Apollo based stuff coming up on TV over the next week as well
