Peter Pan's Birthplace

Johnnie Depp fans will know from his recent feature film that author J.M. Barrie was a Scot from the Angus village of Kirriemuir. Robert and Nicci visit his birthplace there, and discover some surprising things. For instance, the real original Wendy House still stands outside Barrie’s bedroom window - it’s the quaint little wash-house where the family and neighbours did their laundry! Also in the programme, Chef Don Carney shows Fiona how to make oatcakes. There’s a look at the works of 20th century Scottish artist Sir William Gillies. Catriona Harvey visits a factory in Dalbeattie where the famous “See You Jimmy” hats are manufactured. And Prof Ted Cowan takes Robert to the battlefield of Flodden, scene of Scotland’s greatest ever defeat. But we cheer up with a visit to Fraserburgh to meet the Line Dancing youngsters who’ve impressed the US.
