Michael McIntyre's invitation to Martin Brundle 'shut down' during Monaco Grand Prix grid interview
"The Wheel was a show we made in lockdown while we couldn't film the Big Show, but it's become equally beloved. Someone came up to me recently while I was walking the dog and said they 'loved The Big Wheel', I have no idea whether they meant The Big Show, The Wheel or both shows, they may have just come from The London Eye."

Scottish Music: 15 releases from hallowed acts now fetching top prices on Discogs
Scotland has produced a truly rich and diverse collection of artists over the years, offering music fans an eclectic mix of styles—a real melting pot. From traditional folk music by the likes of The Waterboys or Runrig , to the energetic power-pop of Bis and Teenage Fanclub , some of the biggest names in their respective genres hail from this area. This vibrant scene also means that a number of releases from Scottish acts are now considered collectible items, at least according to the Discogs marketplace . But what are some of the 'high-value' items from Scottish artists, and what prices are sellers asking for these rarer releases? Well, we've put on our collector's anorak, adjusted our spectacles, and delved into the Discogs listings for some of the biggest names in Scottish music to bring you 15 of the most valuable albums from the scene. A note though: while actual transaction prices vary, the following list showcases some of the highest asking prices currently seen for specific, coveted records, representing the top end of what one might encounter in the collector's market. The prices listed below reflect current asking prices from sellers at the time of writing. These represent the upper end of what one could be asked to pay for these specific editions, particularly those in pristine (Near Mint or Mint) condition. Actual sale prices can vary significantly and are often lower, depending on market demand, condition, and seller. Always research confirmed sales data before making a purchase. Now that we've covered our backs, what did we spot on Discogs from Scottish acts? 1 . Bis - Intendo (US Vinyl LP Compilation, 1998) Glasgow indie-pop outfit Bis has collectible items in their discography. For this 1998 US vinyl LP compilation, Intendo, you might see asking prices up to £181.48, particularly for copies in excellent condition. | Getty Images/Discogs Photo Sales 2 . Runrig - The Big Wheel (UK Vinyl LP, 1991) Scottish folk-rock legends Runrig also have their share of collectible vinyl. For this 1991 UK vinyl LP of The Big Wheel, listings can go up to £224.16, especially for copies in pristine condition. | Runrig/Discogs Photo Sales 3 . Aztec Camera - Love (European Vinyl LP, 1987) Roddy Frame's Aztec Camera has notable original pressings that draw collector interest. For a European vinyl LP stereo pressing of their 1987 album, Love, you could find asking prices up to £252.78 for a premium copy. | Getty Images/Discogs Photo Sales 4 . Orange Juice - You Can't Hide Your Love Forever (UK, Europe & US Vinyl LP Reissue/Repress, 2014) Post-punk darlings Orange Juice continue to be highly sought after. For this 2014 vinyl LP reissue/repress of their classic 1982 album, You Can't Hide Your Love Forever, current listings show you could be asked to pay up to £293.99, indicating strong demand even for modern reissues. | Getty Images/Discogs Photo Sales Related topics: BoostMusicVinyl
