THE QUEEN'S HEID
by Bob
Harris and Alan McFadzean
The Queen’s
Heid was originally broadcast by BBC Radio Scotland on 30 November (St.
Andrews Day) 2005.
In 1560. Mary,
Queen of Scots returns from France to rule Scotland. Edinburgh publican
and idealist Lachie Marr prepares to fully exploit the mood of change
by transforming his humble tavern, 'The Queen's Heid', into the
capital's hottest night-spot. Unfortunately he hasn't quite remembered
the crabbit nature of the Scots.
The
Queen's Heid is produced and directed by Margaret Ann
Docherty.
It stars: Shonagh Price (Mary, Queen of Scots), Sean Scanlan (Lachie Marr),
Richard Conlon (Lord James Stewart ('Jimmy')), Tom Freeman (Sandy),
Gordon Munro (John Knox).
