44 Scotland Street: Series 5
written & dramatised by Alexander McCall Smith

Young Olive wants to re-write Shakespeare; Bruce's girlfriend is leading him into danger; and Angus has six puppies too many. It's 44 Scotland Street!

Edinburgh's Georgian New Town is the setting for the quirky tales and 'goings on' of Alexander McCall Smith's much loved characters from his bestselling series of books, 44 Scotland Street.

Bruce, a young surveyor, is smitten by an adventurous Australian girl, but is she all she seems? Edinburgh's most hot housed seven year-old, Bertie Pollok, is up for the role of Macbeth in the school play. Meanwhile his father, Stuart, meets a young poet who may just turn his head. All this and more, observed by portrait painter Angus Lordie and his dog, Cyril, the only canine in Scotland with a gold tooth.

Producer/director: David Ian Neville.
