Tha an luchd-lìbhrigidh a’ tighinn à sgìrean eadar-dhealaichte le ùidh is eòlas ann a raon farsaing  de chuspairean, le cuid air a sin a thogail bho làrach-lìn Tobar an Dualchais agus cuid a bha eòlach air an tasglann cheana.

We have a selection of presenters from different backgrounds and fields of interest, some who have come to appreciate the collection on Tobar an Dualchais since the first series was broadcast and some old hands who were already familiar with the archive.  We have programmes from Mairead MacDonald ex-Tobar an Dualchais, Joy Dunlop, Iain Smith, Alasdair Whyte, Raghnaid Sandilands, Anna MacQuarrie, Nicola Thomson, Allan MacDonald from Edinburgh, Bill Innes, Gillebride MacMillan, Allan Turner, Donald Martin, Jo MacDonald, Margaret Stewart, Catriona Murray from UHI, Mairead Callan and Catriona MacPhee.

The topics range from the rich sources of Rev Willie Matheson and Rev Norman MacDonald ( Valtos, Skye),  Donald MacIntyre ( Dòmhnall Ruadh Phàislig), Duncan MacDonald ( Donnchadh MacDhòmhnaill ‘ac Dhonnchaidh, Peighinn nan Aoireann)  and Archie MacLean from the Ross of Mull and the fieldwork of Iain Patterson from Berneray.  Other programmes focus on one area or island, such as those on material collected from Tiree, Mull, Sleat, Iochdair, Argyll and the Rough Bounds. There are also those on subjects such as the supernatural, wool-spinning, highland hospitality, pastimes for children, the rich lexicon ensuing from traditional croft work and on what it meant to be a Gael a century ago.
