Very, very good indeed. I had also just finished Colin Irwins 'In Search of Albion' and it tied in nicely with the proposition that Folk music is the true music of these isles and as such we should be proud of it. I like to think of it as our own 'soul' music, but then again people do say I am crackers:-)

Yes, I noticed the Shoals of Herring reference but decided that as Ewan was doing hos best to be Scottish at the time it was written I could forgive them that. I was more surprised to see Joe Stead taking a background role in the Kimber's Men piece - You can't normaly shut Joe up! In the nicest possible way if you see this, Joe:-P Maybe that is why they kept him out of it!

Trouble is, although it is very good to see more about Folk on TV, I don't think we should let it get too popular. Imagine if Simon Cowell got hold of it... :-S
