At the end of the show a question by Michael Heffernan Recommendations: Joyce McMillan Pitlochry Festival Theatre Set to fantastic songs from world-renowned Scottish band The Proclaimers, Sunshine on Leith is both a funny and moving play about Davy and Ally, two Edinburgh natives returning to their hometown after serving in war-torn countries overseas, who are questioning what ‘home’ really means. A fantastic feel-good story from Stephen Greenhorn, with a feature film adaptation in 2013, this is returning to Pitlochry Festival Theatre for 2023 as a fresh new production of an audience favourite which is sure to delight yet again. https://pitlochryfestivaltheatre.com/whats-on/sunshine-on-leith-2023/  Eamonn Tweed Valley Blogger Let’s rewind a wee bit, I’m Stewart Wilson.  Scottish dad and husband, with two young kids, and a passion for Scotland and sharing stories.  I adore writing and am an enthusiastic amateur historian.  I love my home patch and the wider countryside around it and hope that comes across in my blogs.  In 2023, I decided to take this passion even further and left my job in the corporate world to expand the blog into TVB Tours, offering private, guided tours of the Borderlands, and further afield.  If you decide to join me for a tour, you can expect a lot of laughs, a true local insight and a deeper understanding of what makes the area so special.  Think of it as the audiobook version of the blogs you can read on the site - with lots of sweets along the way!  So head over to the tours page if you are interested in finding out more, or feel free to check out the blog which is and always will be available for all to read. https://tweedvalleyblogger.com/  Reporters sans frontières (RSF) Reporters Without Borders (RSF) defends the right of every human being to have access to free and reliable information.
