Beloved cult Scottish football TV show awaits renewal verdict from BBC

With its sharp wit and heartfelt passion for the national game, A View from the Terrace has become a beloved fixture for Scottish football fans. But as the current series nears its end, the show's future hangs in the balance.

For six years, the programme has offered a unique and humorous lens on football north of the border.

Known for its irreverent tone, passionate debates, and celebration of the sport’s quirks and characters, it has built a loyal following since its debut.

A mix of insightful analysis, fan-driven features, and comedy sketches has made it a staple in the weekly routines of supporters across the country.

But could this be the final time it airs on the BBC Scotland channel in its current form?

Host Craig Telfer summed up the feeling among cast and fans alike in a heartfelt message shared on social media ahead of Friday’s season finale.

“Today marks the final episode of A View from the Terrace. Of the current season? Or of all time? In the words of Edinburgh City manager Michael McIndoe: ‘we’ll let the footballing Gods decide’,” Telfer wrote.

He continued: “Either way: I’ve had the time of my life! And I’m very proud of the work we’ve done over the last six years. You simply cannot beat hanging out with your mates and talking about Scottish football.

"Big up everyone who’s watched on the BBC Scotland channel and the BBC iPlayer. Thank you for your support. I do hope you’ve enjoyed yourself.”
