Arran Gaelic Club


Arran is to have a visit from one of the crew who worked on the popular television series ‘Outlander’. Àdhamh Ó Broin, who is Gaelic consultant to the series, is to give a talk on the island at the invitation of Arran’s Gaelic Club ‘Na h-Arainnich’. Anyone who follows the Outlander series will know that the dialogue features words and phrases of Gaelic and it was Adhamh who taught these to the actors.

Adhamh himself is a well kent face in the Gaelic world where he is also known as story teller, poet, singer and raconteur and makes regular appearances on Television and radio. As well as telling stories of his work on Outlander Adhamh will describe his initiative to collect and learn the Gaelic dialect of neighbouring Argyll. The talk takes place at Corrie hall on Friday 11th March at 7.30pm. Tickets at £3 for member and £5 for non members will be available on the door and the price includes refreshments.
