About this event

Dominic Hinde is on Wednesday 11 November 2026 at Daydreams Bookshop, Glasgow, with doors at 18:50. Tickets start at £12.10, including the booking fee.

Dominic Hinde is a journalist, writer and sociologist. He is currently Lecturer in Sociology at the University of Glasgow, where he researches climate change and the media. He previously worked as a foreign and environmental correspondent for outlets including the Times, Prospect Magazine, the BBC and the Scotsman. He appears regularly on TV and radio as a commentator on both environmental issues and international affairs and also translates plays and journalism from Scandinavian languages into English. Alistair Braidwood is the founder and presenter of Scots Whay Hae!, a podcast celebrating Scottish culture. We bring the two together at Daydreams for a very special event to discuss Dominic’s new book Drifting North: Finding a Sustainable Future in Scotland’s Past. Part memoir, part environmental history, part travelogue, this is a compelling narrative of connections – to place, energy and the possibility of renewal. Through the lens of one country, it asks a vital question: can the lessons of the past help us build a more sustainable future? Event will include author interview, audience Q&A and book signing. Light refreshments will be provided.

You Oughta be in Pictures

Foxlowe Arts Centre · Leek

Hollywood, the 1940s. A charismatic film director auditions a young actor for a horror movie whose lead has died under mysterious circumstances. As he shares tales of exploitation, broken promises, sex, cults, and the fine line between artifice and truth, it transpires there may be a more malevolent eye than that of the camera in the room. But the horrors on screen were never real – or were they? Award-winning theatre-maker Polis Loizou with a tale to fill you with dread… and doubt. “Loizou’s performance is powerful, chilling and pitch perfect.” – Rialto Arts
