It's a cracking show, but maybe seeing it it Edinburgh with lots of fellow Hibbies giving it big licks to our 'anthem' was oart of the appeal....but even in the NEast of Engerland you'll still enjoy the show

TBH seeing it when away from home is probably better, the nostalgia when they talk aboot the walk, the tv and darts repair shop and many other things which are unique to leith would really get you going!!

You'll be ready to drive up to leith as soon as the show finishes:greengrin

The Yams are outraged and Vlad has already commissioned a leading Lithuanian playwright to produce 'moonshine on Gorgie'.

It follows two lads with Hearts connections, one an middle aged guy from London, the other a happy go lucky scamp from Airdrie who end up in Gorgie, trying to make their way in the world after getting out of prison for sexual offences against children. Sounds like family fun yam-style.
