Mark Stephen follows in the footsteps of the rich and famous as he climbs aboard Concorde to hear about this iconic aircraft’s fascinating history and its many Scottish connections. Former Concorde pilot Captain Andy Baillie gives us the lowdown on what it’s like to travel at 1,400mph while Michael Jackson is moonwalking down the cabin.

Wet Wet Wet guitarist Graeme Clark describes his bewilderment at the luxury and opulence onboard and Jerry Smith, Concorde’s youngest ever Cabin Services Director, proudly talks about how his time spent working at the Glasgow Barras gave him the confidence to broker a deal with Bill Clinton.
