Choinnich sgiobaidhean rugbaidh à Glaschu agus Dùn Eideann airson geama sgìreil airson a' chiad turas a-riamh ann an 1872. Tha am prògram seo a' coimhead air ais air eachdraidh a' gheama le agallamhan le laoich a tha air pairt a ghabhal 's a gheama thairis air na bliadhnachan. An-diugh tha an geama air fàs gu ìre gu math farpaiseach eadar an dà sgioba proifeasanta a tha stèidhte anns gach baile mòr. Sides representing Glasgow and Edinburgh first met in 1872 in the first ever inter-district clash in rugby. This programme looks at the history of the fixture and features contributions from many of the great names who have taken part over the years. Today the match has evolved into a hotly contested affair between the two professional teams that now exist in the cities, and players from both sides also explain just how intense the rivalry has become.
