Episode 55 - 16 Years of Alcohol (2003)

We look at a more serious item this week on The Swally as we
cover the 2003 drama, written and directed by Richard Jobson, ’16
Years of Alcohol’. Starring Kevin McKidd, Laura Fraser, Susan
Lynch, Ewen Bremner and Lewis Macleod, the film is based on
Jobson’s semi-autobiographical novel of the same name. Telling
the tale of Frankie, a Ska loving skinhead as it follows him
through his childhood and into adulthood as he battles his demons
and addictions. 


 


In the news we hear about a woman who has overcome a crippling
addiction to Scotland’s favourite soft drink, meet a man who
defended his wife’s honour like in ‘a Hollywood movie’ and hear
about a hero police dog...oh and some Space Aliens too.
