A Glasgow hospital, a granny, two adult granddaughters and a dog.  Doug the dog is one of the highlights of this energetic and very Scottish drama.

This audio drama is the result of 5 years working with young writers across the UK.  The project was funded by 21st Century Fox and took place in Belfast, Edinburgh, Derby Oxford, London and online.
