Why be part of the audience?

Debate Night is the only television programme of its kind in Scotland.  It gives you the opportunity to put your questions to the country’s decision-makers and public figures.

We want people from all walks of life.  You might be a parent, a carer or a student?  Perhaps you run a business or are a frontline worker?  Retired, self-employed, unemployed or just starting out in the workplace – we need you.

It’s your questions, stories, experiences and opinions that lead our discussion – so we couldn’t do it without you!

Our panels are a great mix of people.  Recent guests to join our politicians include award-winning actor Brian Cox, TV stars Patrick Grant and Jane McCarry from Still Game, columnists Hugo Rifkind and Owen Jones, musicians Ricky Ross from Deacon Blue and Belle & Sebastian’s Stuart Murdoch, football legends Pat Nevin and Michael Stewart, entrepreneurs Sir Tom Hunter and Lord Sugar’s advisor Mike Soutar from The Apprentice.
