D貌mhnall Moireasdan a' toirt s霉il air ais air cuid de na sgeulachdan a nochd air a' phr貌gam aithriseach Cearcall. Nam measg: mar a bhathas a'feuchainn ri na ge貌idh a chumail fo smachd an Ile agus mar a bha Di霉ra a' cr矛onadh.

Presenter Donald Morrison takes a nostalgic look through the archive of the popular Gaelic current affairs programme Cearcall. In the original series transmitted in the late 70s and the 80s, topics covered included fishing, crofting, language and politics.

In this episode, four distinct pieces are covered. In 1983, Angela MacEachan visited Islay where geese were a big problem for farmers. The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds had bought an estate solely to attract geese and hopefully leave other farms alone - but farmers were sceptical. Another matter bothering the Islay community was the ferry service offered by Caledonian MacBrayne. When Cearcall visited the island, the timetable had just been amended again, which was causing dismay.

Next door on the island of Jura, things were more worrying for the local inhabitants. In the middle of the 19th century, the population of Jura was 1,300, but when Murdo MacLeod visited in the 80s that number had decreased to less than 200.
