Gaelic rapper Hammy Sgìth and enthusiastic learner Liam McCormick join Joy in the studio for a lively session together as part of the Aig An Taigh programme. In Glasgow, Calum Maclean heads to the wing to try a pastime that many Scots take part in.

Aig An Taigh is a television programme presented as a single episode. The series is listed under the generic heading “episode” and carries the subtitle “At the House”, indicating a focus on activities that take place either within a domestic setting or in locations that feel familiar to the audience. In this particular installment, Gaelic rapper Hammy Sgìth and language learner Liam McCormick sit down with Joy in the studio. The two guests bring contrasting perspectives: Sgìth offers a view from the world of contemporary Gaelic music, while McCormick contributes the experience of someone still mastering the language. Their conversation unfolds alongside Joy’s questions, creating a relaxed studio atmosphere. At the same time, Calum Maclean steps away from the studio and heads to a wing in Glasgow. There he tries his hand at a pastime that enjoys wide participation across Scotland, giving viewers a glimpse of a popular local activity outside the confines of the studio set. The episode therefore weaves together two distinct strands – a studio‑based dialogue with a Gaelic rapper and a learner, and an on‑location segment where Maclean engages in a familiar Scottish hobby. By alternating between these settings, the show provides both cultural insight and a taste of everyday Scottish life.
