The man who made Scotland laugh for 40 years — finally gets his standing ovation.
A celebration of the life and times of the actor Gerard Kelly, with contributions from his friends and colleagues.

Among those appearing will be Richard Wilson, David Hayman, Les Dennis, Andy Gray, Jonathan Watson and Elaine C Smith.
