Episode 11

Dòmhnall Moireasdan a' dèanamh taghadh às a' phrògram aithriseach Cearcall. A-nochd: chì sinn mar a bha an t-arm a' coimhead ri Cnòideart a ghabhail thairis, bha ceist an dùineadh rèile Mhallaig agus sùil inntinneach air coillteireachd.

Donald Morrison presents another selection from the programme Cearcall, originally transmitted in the late 70s and the 80s.

We see how the community in Knoydart was unhappy with the news that the Ministry of Defence was planning to buy the local estate and use it to train soldiers.

The second report features the port of Mallaig, and Angela MacEachen looked at the implications to the local businesses of west coast ferries no longer stopping there. There were also worrying rumours that the rail line to Mallaig would close, with the Ballachulish Bridge making driving to the port easier.

The final feature investigated the impact the closure of the pulp mill at Corpach had on forestry in the region.
