Title: Trusadh – From Asylum to Community
A powerful and poignant documentary which tells the story of how care of people made the move from asylum to community.
Until twenty or thirty years ago, large hospitals for people with mental health problems, and people with learning difficulties, were situated on the outskirts of towns and cities throughout Scotland, where thousands of people who were in need of care were shut away from the rest of society.
However, changing thinking and attitudes about how people should be treated and cared for, and The NHS and Community Care Act of 1990, revolutionised the way in which services were delivered. People who had previously had little control over their lives were encouraged to move into and be part of the community like the rest of us.
Trusadh: Care - From Asylum to Community tells the story of this transition through the personal stories of those who were affected and involved and reveals how attitudes and ideas about how best to care for people have changed over time.

Title: Thar an Aiseig / Ferry Tales
The ferry is an intrinsic part of life in many communities throughout Scotland. From large vessels to small motor boats, the ferries transport people, goods and livestock from islands and peninsulas, providing a crucial connection with mainland Scotland.
Over a year, this series follows the people that run and use Scotland's ferries. From family run businesses to large corporations, all striving to deliver the best service, despite the daily challenges of weather, timetables and engineering problems. From holiday travellers to commuters and school children, the ferry is vital to people for all sorts of reasons.
In this programme, the Easdale ferry has its busiest day of the year transporting competitors to the Stone Skimming World Championships; its spring cleaning time at Western Ferries and the MV Earl Sigurd heads for North Ronaldsay with a load of new kit houses for the island.
Transmitted: Thursday 15 March
Time: 8.30 - 9.00pm
Title: Taigh Ali
'Ali's House' is a story which saw a young man from the Punjab leaving his native land to head for Britain and land on his feet
finally in the Western Isles where he raised a family inside a thatched cottage in the midst of a Gaelic community.
In the company of Rose Duffy and Kathy Stewart, Ali and Mary Ann Mohammed's daughters, Iain MacPherson takes us on a journey overseas and over here from the end of Ali's story in Benbecula to the place where things began in India. To follow their father's trail, we go first to Ireland where he found a wife and back to Glasgow where he found a job and then up to Uist where he found the very life he had so greatly lacked. To become more familiar with the strange furrow their father ploughed from his life over there to his life over here, we and his daughters take a huge trip over distance and time to the heart of their family story in a village out in the country in the middle of the Punjab: a journey with countless twists throughout which no one expected.
And along the way we discover more of the stories inside each emigrant's legacy and the wealth of culture, language and faith
which in the end built 'Ali's House'.
