More specifically the story called The Granton Star Cause.

I am sure some of you have seen it. God turns a lazy lout called Boab into a fly.

Was wondering what people thought of Boab's parents?

Watching this clip every day - a good thing?

I can take mair. I need mair.

 

[Goodbye]

Only in its second page & I've a feeling this thread is going to have the same staying power as the Nicholas cage appreciation thread

 

[nlgbbbblth]

Not watched it for two weeks.

 

[Goodbye]

mazin

A follow-up short.

What happened next - i.e. if the fly hadn't interrupted Boab's parents.

If the two actors could be persuaded to reprise their roles would anybody here be interested in filming it?

 

[nlgbbbblth]

Boab's father turned up in a 1988 episode of Taggart that I watched last week - "Root of Evil".

 

[Goodbye]

Could anyone look him in the eye?

He was a gruff and surly barman. Muscular. I'll be watching Part 2 tonight so will see if he gets more screentime.
