Scotland and the Battle for Britain

In this new OU/BBC series (BBC2, 8pm on Sunday 11 and 19 September) Andrew Marr discovers why the Scotland he was born in has changed so much politically.  It’s become more left-wing, less British and much more fiercely Scottish Nationalist. He charts an extraordinary period of political turmoil affecting the whole of the UK.

The Open University’s Academic Consultant for this series is Dr Gerry Mooney (Social Policy and Criminology). You will find extensive resources and information on topics related to this series on OpenLearn, including a timeline and articles on notable points of Scottish political history.
