Excellent @guardian review of An t-Eilean on @bbcalba If you missed 1st episode last night it’s on the BBC iPlayer. “Long overdue” says the writer. @MGALBA wants to make sure the next high quality #Gaelic drama happens quickly. #Gaidhlig @MGALBA

A high-budget series set in the Outer Hebrides – it’s hard to believe it’s taken this long, given how popular subtitled TV is. It’s a good, solid series, even if the plot stretches credulity
