Inverness
Mark visits Inverness in the Highlands of Scotland. Inverness is the 2nd happiest place in Britain, according to some polls, but Mark finds them to be a bit grumpy if the truth be known... some of them anyway... some of them are marvellous. He meets Sheena from the local taxi firm who tells a story about a fib she told to a tourist, and he meets Steve the Nessie Hunter, a man who has lived in a van on the shores of Loch Ness for 26 years. Mark Steele's award-winning series travels around the country visiting towns that have nothing in common but their uniqueness. After thoroughly researching each town, Mark writes and performs a bespoke evening of comedy for the local residents. Written and performed by Mark Steel. Additional material by Pete Sinclair. Production co-ordinator: Hayley Sterling Sound Manager: Jerry Peal Picture Credit: Tom Stanier Producer: Carl Cooper First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in December 2017.
