What's on in Harestanes

Dunbartonshire, Scotland

Share:

Quiz nights where the debate over question 7 lasts longer than the quiz itself. Coffee mornings that turn into proper natter sessions. Craft fairs where you'll actually find something worth buying instead of the usual tat. That's Harestanes, and we've got it all listed — from book clubs to bingo, farmers' markets to film screenings. The sort of events where you'll probably bump into someone you know, which is either brilliant or your worst nightmare depending on whether you've been dodging Dave from the parish council.

David Olusoga: A Gun Through Time

David Olusoga: A Gun Through Time

Have you ever considered how a single weapon could change the course of history? What stories lie behind the guns that shaped empires, wars, and even criminal underworlds? How did these firearms influence not just battles, but entire societies? Known for his acclaimed documentaries Black and British: A Forgotten History and A House Through Time, as well has his appearance on Celebrity Traitors, David Olusoga offers remarkable storytelling in this powerful, unexpected and enlightening social narrative. Join David as he uncovers the story of four firearms that changed the world and the lives of our ancestors. The Thompson Sub-Machine Gun was the wonder weapon that was supposed to end to the slaughter of the First World War. But in the hands of the gangsters of Prohibition-era American it became the infamous 'Tommy Gun'. The Maxim gun enabled Europeans to conquer Africa in the 1890s, but 20 years later it became one of the biggest killers in European history when deployed on the Western Front. It is still being used to considerable effect on the battlefields of Ukraine. The Brown Bess flintlock musket, standard issue to the British Army from the early 18th to mid-19th century, was famously used in conflicts from the American War of Independence to Waterloo, symbolising the height of British imperial military power. The Lee Enfield rifle was woven into the lives of two generations of our ancestors.
