“This is a documentary about hate and bigotry. About sections of two communities, for generations at odds with one another, where the wrong colour of clothing can mark you out for serious injury, or even, on occasion, death. It's also a documentary about football.

Sectarianism and religious bigotry have long been accepted as part of a way of life in Scotland. The divide between Protestant and Catholic, the Orange and the Green, is most visibly reflected in the support for Rangers and Celtic which begins early and spreads from parent to child, from one generation to the next.

Only last year, the First Minister, Jack McConnell, labeled this particular brand of hatred, "Scotland's secret shame."

It manifests itself most dramatically during what is called the greatest club fixture in the football calendar - the "Old Firm" derby between Rangers and Celtic. After a recent match, there was one murder, three attempted murders and 62 arrests during a night of violence.

On days like this, emergency callouts for Accident and Emergency teams will increase by 66%, the vast majority made up of violent or drunken assaults between opposing fans.

Legislation has now been introduced which outlaws sectarian behaviour. Panorama investigates the effectiveness of the legal challenge and for the first time puts the two major Glasgow football clubs under the spotlight as they attempt to rid sectarianism from their supporters. It also explores the violence and mayhem that undermines and erodes the new image that Glasgow and Scotland want to present to the outside world.

Contributors include the First Minister, Jack McConnell, Rangers and Celtic Football clubs, and interviews with those who have carried out acts of sectarian violence.”

Primal Scream are a rock group formed as a duo in 1982 in Glasgow, Scotland.

Several of their songs have appeared on movie soundtracks including "Trainspotting" in the film Trainspotting, "Miss Lucifer" and "Swastika Eyes" in The Football Factory, "Star" in The Jackal, "Movin' On Up" in Grand Theft Parsons and the game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (on fictional Alternative station Radio X), and "Come Together" in Human Traffic.

This song is from their 2000 album XTRMNTR. In 2001 Q magazine named it as one of the 50 Heaviest Albums Of All Time.

A fantastic song (68 and I owe you 1) by a Scottish MC: All Time High - here performed at King Tuts Wah Wah Hut in Glasgow, Scotland; with The Kazoo Funk Orchestra. The original track was produced by DJ Nu Mark of Jurassic 5...I'll link to an MP3 of the song later - so fellow Sifters can hear the fantastic lyrics at a decent quality and volume!

The sketch is from a Scottish comedy sketch show based in and around Glasgow and making fun of the Scottish and particularly Glaswegian culture.

Ice Cream Lady : There ye go... a 99 and a bottle o' Irn Bru
There you go, you're ice cream and a bottle of Irn Bru

She then asks what the other boy wants and he says :

He's wantin' a swatch a'yer fanny

which means

He'd like a look of your vagina.

She shows them (not shown) and then drives off leaving the boys amazed. The joke being that they the boys were obviously trying to be offensive and weren't expecting her to do it. At the end of the episode of "Chewin the Fat" that this sketch was shown in you see the boys still standing there late at night with the same amazed looks on their face and their ice creams melted.

Warning! Some non-brits may find this hard to understand.
Not expecting loads of votes for this but my in-laws live in Glasgow so it brings back some memories. Funny stuff
