Title: Trusadh/Compelling Stories - Jock - Naked Peat

The phenomenal success of the legacy left by the WRI 'Calendar Girls' inspired many groups and individuals to take up the challenge of exploiting nakedness for charity fundraising. Retired metropolitan police officer Jock Murray is one such individual. Driven by illness within his own immediate family, he chose the theme of traditional methods of producing winter fuel as his cold, windswept backdrop, to the very unique Hebridean Peat-Cutters calendar.
