Listen to our interview with Scots actor/comedians Greg Hemphill (Chewin' The Fat, Still Game) and Robert Florence (Burnistoun). 

BROADCAST LIVE TUESDAY MAY 14th 2013

WARNING: VERY STRONG LANGUAGE



All hell broke lose during this interview as we discussed the forthcoming Kelvin Brawl in Glasgow's Kelvin Hall on June 21st 2013. 

When Scots comedians/actors Greg Hemphill and Robert Florence took part in an interview with Ross Owen and Nightmare on Black Sky Radio to promote their 'Kelvin Brawl' event at Glasgow's Kelvin Hall on June 21st 2013, verbal attacks escalated into threats of physical violence against an old aged pensioner. Greg Hemphill refused to come on air at the same time as Robert Florence, so we agreed to let Robert pretend to be a fan to get them on air together resulting in a controversial head to head. An interview not to be missed. 
WARNING: CONTAINS STRONG LANGUAGE THROUGHOUT.
