Sir William Connolly, CBE (born 1942) is a retired Scottish stand-up comedian, musician, presenter, actor and artist. He is sometimes known, especially in his homeland, by the Scots nickname “The Big Yin” (“The Big One”). Connolly’s first solo album, Billy Connolly Live!, was produced, with a mixture of comedic songs and short monologues.

Two series, each consisting of 13 episodes, were produced, alongside a Christmas special.  The stories are about an elderly grandmother, Granny Smith (Gudrun Ure), who acquires superpowers when she is accidentally hit by a magic ray created by Inventor Black (Bill Shine). Under the guise of ‘Super Gran’, she protects the residents of the fictional town of Chiselton from villains such as Roderick Scunner Campbell (Iain Cuthbertson) and his gang, 

The Heart – The Shape

The heart shape and its meaning has evolved over hundreds of years. Nowadays it means love but before the 13th and 14th centuries it was generally drawn for decorative purposes. People at that time thought of our hearts as books of memory and believed feelings for the beloved were somehow written on your heart.
