How It All Ended

20240803

20240809 (BBC7)

Glaswegian comedian Scott Agnew is obsessed with thoughts about his own mortality - well you would be too if you had died three times.

This is part one in a trilogy of tales that gets into the gritty and grim goings on that nearly saw Scott pushing up the daisies. From Scott's time as a journalist, gate crashing a funeral, being told he was fat on a dating app, the day he caught covid, to his cardiac arrests. These stories are far from forlorn fables, but rather are bursting with colourful, lively characters who have shaped Scott's life and helped him along the way.

In this three part series, Scott reflects upon his multiple dances with death, all the while searching for an epiphany he has yet to find. This is more than just a life story, this is Scott's death story.
