The Sideline podcast and Glasgow City FC are hosting a special screening of my 2020 Royal Television Society award winning film, The Women Who Built Glasgow City.
I’m thrilled about this as the premiere screening scheduled to take place at the Everyman Cinema in Glasgow (pre BBC ALBA transmission) had to be cancelled because of Covid so it will be lovely for the film to have a wee bit of glitz and glamour after all.
The Sideline will also be recording a podcast and myself and Glasgow City founders (who the film is about) Laura Montgomery and Carol Anne Stewart will have a wee chat about the film and of course the magnificent duo will be answering questions about their phenomenal journey.
There are still a few tickets (they are free) remaining and you can access them here. The screening is taking place at 7pm on the 1st of April at The Social Hub in Glasgow.
