Glasgow Caledonian University will open an archive of memories to mark the much-loved STV programme’s 40th birthday.
Blythe Duff and James MacPherson with Mark McManus as Taggart in an early episode of the show
Retired detectives will host drop-in sessions at the university’s Alex Ferguson Library for past extras, people who played corpses, or provided props for the crime drama to share their stories. In 2018, Duff donated scripts from all of the Taggart episodes she starred in, as well as photographs, press cuttings and memorabilia.Duff, who is an honorary graduate and cultural fellow of the university, said: “Everyone I meet has a Taggart story, ‘Oh you filmed in my auntie’s house’ or ‘in our street’, or ‘I was an extra for the day’.
“Blythe’s vision is completely aligned with our ethos so we are delighted she has chosen us as her partner in the creation of this people’s archive.
