Still Game and Balamory stars swim in Fife and Tayside

On Wednesday’s episode, Greg, who played Victor McDade in Still Game and Julie, who played Miss Hoolie in Balamory, travel to the Kingdom.

They take a dip in Pittenweem and St Monans before heading north to Nairn.

In the Tay episode, the couple join swimming group Dundee Dookers in Broughty Ferry before trips to Kenmore and Aberfeldy.

Dundee Dookers was set up in 2022 to provide men with a support group for their physical and mental health.

Co-ordinator Steven Sinclair said: “We were approached by a researcher from the show’s production company. We were like, ‘How can you pass this up?’

“Greg and Julie told us that they started cold water dipping a couple of years ago and they wanted to create a show focusing on groups in the country who swim regularly.

“We took them for a dook in Broughty Ferry and followed it by having a get-together at the Fisherman’s Tavern.”
