Going For Gold
Andrew Cotter presents a fun, irreverent and uplifting look back at when Scottish athletes set the bar and embodied everything that we love about medal success at the Olympics.
Scotland v The World presents a fun, irreverent and uplifting look back at when Scottish athletes quietly set the bar and embodied everything that we love about medal success at the Olympics. Along the way, we’ll enjoy some quirky Scottish firsts at the Olympics (who knew Scotland’s first Olympic Gold medal winner was a one-handed weightlifter?) and have some laughs around a few of our most iconic sporting success stories at the Olympic Games.
It's the perfect antidote to the disappointing Euros campaign for Scotland and will be a timely reminder that Scotland have enjoyed some fantastic performances and medal success on the biggest sporting stage of them all, the Olympics.
Scottish athletes as part of Team GB featured in the show include Shirley Robertson, Andy Murray, Katie Archibald, Alan Wells, Duncan Scott, Sir Chris Hoy, David Wilkie and Liz McColgan.
