Borders - Rural Poverty and Mental Health

In this fifth episode, Darren McGarvey travels to the Borders. The terrain may not be familiar to him but the issues are.

It is a large area stretching from south of Lothian to north of the English border, with rolling hills and farmland, but as Darren observes: "You could be forgiven, when immersed in such idyllic scenery like this, for thinking that poverty is not an issue here in the Borders. It actually is, it's just that it isn't visible in the same way as some of Scotland's urban areas."

Along with poverty, there is an issue with mental health problems, and Darren meets a range of people to understand how this impacts in rural areas.

The Big Fat Quiz

The Big Fat Quiz is an annual British television programme broadcast on the last Sunday of the year on Channel 4. Essentially, the show is a comedy panel show in the style of a pub quiz. Three teams, of two celebrities each, are asked questions relating to the events of the year just gone by, which they write answers to on an electronic board in front of them. At the end of each round, they then display their answers, scoring a point for each correct one. The first edition was broadcast in December 2004. There has been another at the end of each year since, as well as a special edition in November 2007 for Channel 4's 25th anniversary celebrations.
