Life Behind the Trig Episode 09 - Highland Games in Modern Media.
Our regular hosts Kyle Randalls and Sinclair Patience are discussing the Highland Games and how they appear or rather do not much in modern media. Last year a film crew followed James Dawkins, Lukasz and myself on our "journey to Braemar" and it has been aired on Netflix(link below) It is part of the series "Home Game" and features slightly more obscure traditional sports, with the Highland Games being episode 02.
