    Default BBC Alba tonight.

    On the above TV station at 22.00 hours there is a programme about the rescue of the crew of the Clan MacQuarrie.
    Clan MacQuarrie ran aground on the Isle of Lewis during a storm in 1953.
    Shoukld be an interesting programme, only one thing wrong it's in Gaelic, although there should be subtitles.

    Hi Vic. 1953 was a terrible for shipping. This from one of my books.
    Bill.

    .. not “wrong” as it is a Gaelic channel.. just inconvenient for those, including me, that don’t speak it.

    Normally there is a line at the bottom the film screen and you can choose from a selection of languages for the subtitles, you can also get it dubbed in English, although I do find foreign programes when in English, that the characters lose their character as the voices are flat with no expression or passion, perhaps its just me.
