Why Lindsay Was All On Edge, But Finally Made The Cut.
Two bits of good news for 成人快手 Scotland here at the Celtic Media Festival in Galway. Our Gaelic sports reporter Derek Murray has scooped the prize for best radio personality and producer/director Lindsay Hill won the current affairs award for her programme Tales From The Edge.
I was especially pleased for Lindsay. She's an old friend and many years ago we worked together during the early days of digital television. She presented a programme called Late Flyte.
She's a genuinely modest person who works like a one-woman production unit making television documentaries with a single camera. She told me she had no expectation of winning but, at the last minute, thought she had better cut her fringe just in case she had to make a speech. She borrowed a pair of sticky paper scissors from the hotel reception desk and spent a frustrating ten minutes in front of the mirror trying to get the blades to move.
I'm sure that's exactly what Hollywood stars do just before they step up to receive an Oscar.
