Episode 93 - Soft Top Hard Shoulder (1992)

On this episode we are covering the 1992 film written by and starring Peter Capaldi, Soft Top Hard Shoulder. Having failed to make it in London as a comic-book artist, Gavin Bellini (Capaldi) - an Italian-Glaswegian from an ice-cream dynasty - reluctantly yields to his uncle's demands that he return home for his dad's sixtieth birthday party; if he makes it, the uncle played by Richard Wilson, may give him a share of the family fortune. But as he heads north in his worn-out Triumph convertible, Gavin meets countless obstacles. Will Gavin reach the party on time?

In the news we meet man who made an easy £50 in a chip shop by getting his smoked sausage out, discover a new word added to the dictionary, discuss the SNP text message scandal and work out how out pronounce Peter Capaldi’s surname.
