| 0:22.8 | Hello everyone. I am in some of the most beautiful countryside on earth. |
| 0:32.8 | To appeal to those who may want to turn this into a documentary, a road trip, a national history classic, I would say the big green fields look nice next to the big hills. |
| 0:48.8 | But in all seriousness, it is breathtaking. |
| 0:53.8 | The air should coast to my right, rugged hills and outcrops, gorse, cattle, dark brown sheep, and to my left the sea. |
| 1:06.8 | And, fun fact-a-lert, the volcanic plug in the frith of Clyde, Firth of Clyde. |
| 1:15.8 | Where all of the curling stones come from, and we spoke to the guy who makes them on unsung hero, and he works the company, the only company that has a license to get the stones from the sort of island in the middle of the Firth of Clyde. |
| 1:35.8 | Oh God, the hungover Robin's mind, the scenery is moving. It's very emotional how beautiful it is. |

| 2:52.8 | Just walking along the sea front in air, I have to say, listen to a Gillian Welch song in the car, I've got me thoroughly glum. |
| 3:06.8 | Someone trying to run over some sea goals, what I believe is a hox or a last-tra. |
| 3:14.8 | It's got one of those massive exhaust pipes on it, the idiot. But yeah, fun recommendation. |
| 3:23.8 | The Gillian Welch cover of Blackstar by Radiohead is absolutely a superb. |
| 3:33.8 | Let's listen to it, six times in a row. Ladies just chucked all her chips out of her car with the sea goals to eat. |
| 3:46.8 | Yeah, probably looked a bit puffy-eyed when I got to the hotel. |
| 3:52.8 | But it's so beautiful. There's something, there's like a fun fair sort of pavilion, kids adventure playground, and a fun zone. |
| 4:09.8 | Oh, they took a photo of me outside the fun zone, looking like a glum zone. |
| 4:18.8 | But there is something, well, it all comes down to what Krista Berg said in his song Fatal Hesitation. |
