Time for a pulp countdown now, and as it's #StAndrewsDay here's my top 10 of Generation X Scottish things!*
(*brought to you in association with Hipsway and Runrig)
At #10: Heather the Weather! "Hello there" Heather Reid predicts... rain!
Randan Discothèque even wrote a song about her:
At #9: the 1990 Scotland kit! Available from Roberts Stores, Trongate.
Don't forget to tuck your shirt in properly.
At #8: William McIlvanney! If you haven't read him then you're missing out on some great crime noir.
At #7: the ginger van! Who needs Deliveroo when you have the Bon Accord man.
At #6: Maggie! Joan Lingard's books brought to life with Kirsty Miller in the title role and the legendary Michael Sheard as her Pa.
At #5: the Tennants Lager Lovelies!
Sylvia was always my favourite...
At #4: The Nightmare Man! This is why we don't visit the Islands any more.
At #3: Gregory's Girl! Simply the greatest teen film ever made.
At #2: Scunner Campbell! Boo! Hiss! Etc...
And at #1: Strawberry Switchblade! Post punk, polkadots and gothic swaying. Jill and Rose 4 ever!!
