Awrite lads! Or if you're not from Glasgow, hello, good day, welcome.

My name is Sean, and I love television. To me, there is almost no better way to while away an afternoon, than with a series of Gavin & Stacey, or The Office, or 30 Rock. Often I find myself looking abroad for new television - to America obviously, but also to Scandinavia and Australia. Despite this, I firmly believe British television is the best in the world. However, with much television output coming directly from London, I felt my knowledge of the television industry in my own hometown, Glasgow, was limited.

This blog will examine some of the best, and least known shows originating in the city.
