This was the history posse in the Stand Comedy Club in Edinburgh.

The event promised;

The Devine Judgement

Historically, we tend to view the drain of people from Scotland’s shores in the light of loss. But is this necessarily the case? Could Scotland’s diaspora be an advantage to our small nation?

Join Professor Tom Devine, Professor Richard Finlay, Dr Andrew MacKillop, Dr Catriona MM Macdonald, Frank Cogliano and chair Lesley Riddoch to tussle with the legacy of Scotland’s diaspora – advantage or disadvantage?

Result. It was funny, enlightening and great history!
