Ian & Dougie have found each others sidekick...

Bat Masterson (Dougie Lawson) and Wyatt Earp (Ian Grant)

The world may think of Ian Grant and Dougie Lawson as fifty something Scotsmen, but deep down they know that they're really Wyatt Earp and his deputy Bat Masterson.

A holiday means a trip to Tombstone, to doff their Stetsons in homage to the OK Corral. But more important than the jingling spurs and fancy weskits they acknowledge that in each other they have at last found the the sidekick they'd always been missing.
