Donald Trump is back in the White House: can the president’s family and business links to Scotland be exploited?

We ask Torcuil Crichton, the Labour MP for the Western Isles who has invited President Trump to his mother’s birthplace of Lewis, and the BBC’s Scotland Correspondent David Wallace Lockhart.

And Martin and Laura Miller explore the rights and wrongs of pronouncing ‘Scotcast’ with a glottal stop.
