Grant Stott, Len Pennie and Sanjeev Kohli

  • Resumen

  • 'Treasures of the National Library of Scotland' is a new permanent exhibition at the National Library of Scotland on George IV Bridge, Edinburgh. It provides a unique insight into Scotland’s history, culture and people and its place in the world. At the Library we collect and preserve the memory of the Scottish nation on behalf of the people of Scotland.

    This exhibition reflects ideas and innovation, creativity and social change from across the centuries. It features objects from early printed books to video installations, and from maps and medieval manuscripts to passports and letters.

    Hosted by Julia Sutherland, this episode features actor and radio host Grant Stott, whose passion for recorded music is represented by the collection of wax cylinders from around 1909; poet Len Pennie discovers inspiration in the one of the first colour films made in Scotland, ‘Where the Bens Stand Sentinel’; and actor and comedian Sanjeev Kohli finds the origins of the information age in an extremely rare and valuable book from the 15th century.
