Allan Little: reporting in an age of conflict

BBC Scotland teamed up with The Royal Society of Edinburgh to webcast its prestigious Annual Christmas Lecture live across the UK from Allan's old school, Stranraer Academy.

For over two decades, Allan Little has been reporting the changing shape of our world "from a seat in the front row of history". He described some of the key moments from his career and answered questions from Lord Wilson of Tillyorn about what it is like to be Reporting the World in an Age of Conflict.
