We're coming to Alloa to film "My Kind of Town" for BBC Scotland from 19th of May. I had a quick chat with Tony McMinn from Wasp Community Club about what we might discover when we get there. Anything else we should be highlighting or talking about for the programme? Let us know

We're getting ready to film "My Kind of Town" in Alloa from next Monday. Looking forward to getting started, but in the meantime here's a quick catch up I had with Eric from Wimpy Park Community Group

Day 2 in #Alloa is complete and in the bag. I heard a ghost story, got to help plant some flowers, and spoke to a musician who's written a song celebrating the town. Oh, and we might have caught a tan

Day 3 of My Kind of Town is in the can - and I use that word deliberately. We spoke to some people on Alloa’s high street about their thoughts on the town. Then we went to a brewery to hear about the beer-making past, present, and future of #Alloa

What a great week filming My Kind of Town in #Alloa. Myself and Major had a great time meeting really interesting people involved in food, drink, youth development, and I even ended up in judo gear. Stay tuned about when it's going out on the BBC Scotland channel, likely October

How could a community-owned wind project transform a town? #RadioCity Association in North Ayrshire say they could generate £12m for local transport, housing, and employment. But, they like so many others, face significant hurdles. Our latest report for BBC Scotland News.

Our second film on community energy. As the original windfarms come to the end of their initial tendering, community groups don't want to be frozen out of the opportunities of revenue for their area.

A couple of weeks ago I was in Peterhead having a nose about before we start filming 'My Kind of Town' next week. We want to hear about what makes Peterhead tick. The crew, myself, and guide dog Major are all very friendly. Come up and say hello if you see us

Interesting first two days in #Peterhead. Started off all at sea and then ended up on the inside. I've been told by Annie the producer I may be allowed to leave after a week on the promise of good behaviour. Filmed and edited by producer, and occasional jailor, Daniel Bennett

We've wrapped filming My Kind of Town in #Peterhead. Lots of interesting people and parts of the town. Here's a roundup of the last few days. Thanks to the people of Peterhead, we had a great time in your town. Make sure to watch for the programme going out this October.
