UKTV are fond of saying programs are a 'premiere' - it only means it's the first time that UKTV have shown it (as opposed to the endless repeats they usually show). Doesn't mean it's the first time shown in the country.

They are also the 2 blokes who wrote and sang, "Flower Of Scotland".

Very good. Also sometimes known as a cirque (cwm in Wales).

A rendition of 'Flower of Scotland' before a football or rugby match is indeed a 'hair standing up on spine' affair. Another very popular football anthem at my club is 500 miles by the Reid twins, otherwise known as the Proclaimers. But we digress.
