About the Author

Glen Michael hosted Cavalcade, one of STV's most popular programmes ever, playing to millions of viewers during its 26-year run. As its host, Glen Michael (together with Paladin, the talking lamp, Totty the Robot and dogs Rudi and Rusty) introduced generations of Scots to some of the world's cartoon greats, including Asterix the Gaul, Bugs Bunny, Caspar the Friendly Ghost and Spiderman. But cartoons are only a small part of the story.
