Capaldi himself attended Glasgow School of Art, but soon after graduating became an actor.

Capaldi spends time with the paintings and the artists that have made Scottish art special. He sketches some of the most important Scottish portraits, and  shows how Scotland’s art has reflected the changing face of the nation.

I believe that this is repeated later in the week if you miss the first showing which goes out immediately after the Michael Palin programme on the Scottish Colourists.
