Elaine C Smith and Greg McHugh to guest star in new Scots comedy show pilot

Two Doors Down's Elaine C. Smith and Gary: Tank Commander's Greg McHugh are amongst the guests on a new Scots comedy series being piloted for telly.

The Good, The Bad And The Unexpected will be broadcast on BBC Scotland on Monday evening after running for ten series on BBC Radio Scotland since 2014.

The show - which began as a podcast - will have comedian Mark Nelson on hosting duties alongside Elaine, Gary, and poet Len Pennie.

The panel tells stories about their good, bad and unexpected experiences and, according to programme makers, is a really cool, laid-back format which listeners seem to love.
