Still Game in 1:76 scale, Osprey Heights & Winston Ingram

            Taking advantage of the newly built Kingsway kit of - Half Relief Block of Flats, I’ve added temporary signage naming these high flats as Osprey Heights, the home to characters Jack, Victor & Isa from BBC Scotland’s well loved show “Still Game”. In the show, character Winston Ingram is initially thrilled when his sore foot enables him to claim extra benefits, specifically “Attendance Allowance. He’s quickly disheartened to be told his 80 a day smoking habit means the lower leg needs to be amputated. Following this Winston is given a prosthetic leg in which to store his horse racing winnings. 

In the scene pictured here, Winston has had a fall with his prosthetic coming loose. As an Ambulance Crew member looks him over, Home Help Mrs Begg looks on. I have included a model of the McKindless MCW Metrobus featured on the show. It’s shown on service 80 as the real bus did in Series 1 Episode 4 “Courtin”. 

Another episode focuses on the local Dial-a-Bus service driven by Robbie Coltrane (Hagrid from Harry Potter). Whilst I don’t yet have a model of the ex Arriva Optare Metrorider used in Series 4 Episode 3, I’ve used an Avondale model Dart MPD in SPT Bus livery and which displays Dial A Bus on the destination screen
