1980 to 1990

OCCASIONALLY-NETWORKED locally-grown Caledonian sketch comedy and obvious precursor to the television show of largely the same name, involving Gregor Fisher, Elaine C Smith, Gerard Kelly et al in early sound-only outings for crude cave drawing-like renditions of what would become the likes of Rab C Nesbitt, and endless parodies of Muriel Gray and The Broons, much to the chagrin of feverish adolescents who had tuned in expecting to get something approaching nudity. Erm, however that would have worked on the radio exactly.
