Taggart: The Only Scottish Show on Televsion

I don't think many people would be able to think of a Scottish television show if they were asked. In fact the only one I know of is Taggart. I think it is a good show and have been following it since I was a child.

Taggart is a crime series that is based in the Scottish capital of Glasgow. Originally the main character was a homicide detective called Taggart and he was supported by other detectives. Unfortunatly the actor died in 1995. The show has managed to carry on without Tagget and still is entertaining. The show use to run for two hours but now it only runs for one hour. One odd incident with the show is that one story line involved a particullar person being murded on a farm. Then a couple of years later the actor returns to become one of the permanent detectives on the show.

Who is a fan of Taggrt? Who has heard of Taggrt before? What other Scottish programs are currently showing internationally?
