		Scotland is a small country located on the periphery of Europe.
		Scotland's current terrestrial television reflects the evolution of Britain's broadcasting ecology, offering viewers a choice of the four channels and a mix of British networked television and Scottish national and local productions.
		What was produced in Scotland received considerable criticism in terms of its nature and quality; the Pilkington Report of 1962 noted that the few programmes produced by BBC Scotland often "failed to reflect distinctive Scottish culture".

	Scotsman.com News - BBC Scotland 'undermined' by network failure on devolution
		The Broadcasting Council for Scotland (BCS), the body that represents licence fee payers north of the Border, claimed a lack of clarity in the BBC's national news operation over how Scotland is run was undermining BBC Scotland's efforts to make more programmes reflecting the country's distinctive culture.
		The report revealed BBC Scotland's income for 2005-6 was £161 million, a drop of more than £8 million on the previous year.
		The BBC said this was due to Monarch of the Glen dropping from its usual run of 12 episodes to six for its last series, and the programme Restoration being rested for a year.

		I had a Royal Air Force greatcoat, an embarrassingly straggly beard, long centre-parted hair, and a copy of Jethro Tull's Thick As A Brick carefully kept in a polythene cover.
		There were unpleasant things about it that really marred what otherwise might have been a pleasant decade of becoming quite successful in the USA.
		Can we talk a little bit about the Aqualung album — Aqualung and Thick As A Brick were both very important albums, again [laughing] in the kind of society that I inhabited in Scotland at the time.
