Gaelic Church of St Columba, Glasgow, 1991 Video-rip, part 1 / 18

In this first video-rip the (now late-) Rev. Jack MacArthur provides some background to the migration of Gaelic-speakers towards the industrial city of Glasgow, the need which arose there-from for a Gaelic-language church and the continuing desire among city residents for an opportunity to praise in Gaelic. This program was originally broadcast in November, 1991. The copyright remains the property of the original recorders, and this excerpt is provided here for the purposes of review or criticism. Rev. MacArthur was a notable person in his own right, as his obituary in the Scotsman Newspaper describes: http://www.scotsman.com/news/obituari... As this footage was recorded by the BBC, the copyright remains theirs. This short excerpt is provided here purely for the purposes of criticism and review of the information provided by Rev. MacArthur, who was most expert in the historical necessity for a Gaelic-language church in Glasgow, and the current resurgence in interest in the language and culture. Regrettably, the BBC report that copies of out-dated episodes of Songs of Praise are not available: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006t...
