NorthLink Ferries is set to appear in a new BBC Scotland television series which will showcase how transport is changing in 21st century Scotland.
The ferry operator, which sails between the mainland and Northern Isles, will feature in the first episode of the ‘How Scotland Works’ series which is due to air tonight (Tuesday 26 April).
The episode will give audiences the chance to discover NorthLink Ferries’ lifeline service which provides transport to Orkney and Shetland and meet those working within the company.
The programme will also capture NorthLink Ferries’ vessels designed to carry varying freight loads including heavy vehicles and livestock.
Speaking of the series, Stuart Garrett, Managing Director at NorthLink Ferries, said: “It has been very exciting for us to be involved in the making of How Scotland Works. The first episode will give audiences a great insight into the service that NorthLink Ferries provides to those living in Orkney and Shetland.
“Viewers will have the opportunity to meet some of our key members of staff and crew and learn more about what goes into making each journey safe and efficient. For people living in Orkney and Shetland, the provisions that we ship to and from the islands are important to everyday life.”
