Scottish Lib Dems and others have been tweeting about “Tearlach Ceannadach/Charles Kennedy: A Good Man Speaking” which will air on BBC Alba tonight at 21:00 and follow online “shortly afterwards”. There are already substantial clips and extensive photo galleries available on the BBC Alba website. We hope to carry a review of the programme later today.
By the look of it, the BBC have done a fine job on this. There’s a remarkable cast of interviewees. Bless them, they’ve even commissioned two Scottish musicians, Lauren MacColl and Ewan MacPherson to do a new version of David Bowie’s “Heroes” to accompany aerial footage of Charles’ beloved Highlands. (Charles Kennedy was, of course, a great fan of David Bowie.) That clip is already on the website. It really is beautiful!

I used to work with Charles Kennedy many years ago. I loved working with him. He was a man of huge intellect, decency and old fashioned Scottish highlander charm. Politics is a much poorer place without him. https://t.co/N0VGNYM64D

A real weepy.
So much responsibility put on too young , but willing shoulders
His son should be very proud of his father, who demonstrated the human decency that made us vote for the party he led.
