I was recently commissioned to write a script for new tourist venture, the Glasgow Whisky Tour. Launched in January 2011, this is an fun interactive bus tour/pub crawl featuring a host of dramatic characters (all played by one tour guide) including:
Belladonna Cartwright, a veteran actress from Edinburgh in the local lovies bar, the Pot Still;
Francine Dupree, a french tourist come to Glasgow in search of 'le craic' at the Bon Accord;
gaelic singer Heavenly Voice (or translated to gaelic Oran Mor) at, you've guessed it, the Oran Mor;
Jenny McLeod, a highlander from Inverness, cleared off her land and mournful for home
and
Sharon Stewart, an Australian student of Sociology, who took a summer job at the Islay Inn and got in touch with her Island roots
The whole bus tour is facilitated by a wee Glasweigan baccle called Senga, and while the patrons are travelling between venues, Senga keeps them entertained wi' Glesca's first ever bus-based pub quiz!
