A commercial on TV today, advertising fish, had a snatch of Alex Glasgow singing "Dance to tha' daddy". The same singing that was used to introduce the serial drama on BBC TV"When The Boat Comes In." Then I noticed a drama, an autobiographical piece by Alan Plater, on today's BBC radio4 in which Alex Glasgow is a character. A little coincidence. If you're not acquainted with his work here's a obituary of him by Alan Plater. Alex Glasgow:obit If anybody else wants to provide a link to the programme, it's on this evening at 7.45.
