dukeboy Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 Saw this advertised, might be worth a watch.... Caledonia TV recently followed the fortunes of three girls as they trained to become ghillies with us on Ardnamurchan Peninsula. Featuring Chrissie Gillies, 28, from Raasay, Mairi Alice Bartlett, 25, from Lewis, and Megan MacLellan, 20, from Morar, theyve left the cosy comfort of home to train as ghillies on a Highland Estate. Theyve swapped mascara and hair-straighteners for tick-removers and guns. These girls have never met a deer, let alone shot one! They will have to pull the trigger, gralloch deer and work long hours in all weathers have they got what it takes? Catch the first programme on BBC Alba at 10pm on 17 February 2014 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scully Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 I always thought we where all in this together No, we're not unfortunately, but my comment was in jest. I like to see shooting exposed in a positive light and despite my sarcasm sincerely hope the tv producers and those girls involved go from strength to strength in promoting shooting.
