The latest programme in David Hayman's series on ships and shipbuilding is "Scotland's Vital Spark: The Clyde Puffer". It will be broadcast on BBC2 Scotland on Monday 14 December 2015 at 9.00 pm and will continue to be available on BBC iPlayer until 4 January 2016. It will hopefully feature the role played by Kirkintilloch and its puffer builders.
