First Gaelic Song in Soap?!

Delighted that BBC Scotland's popular Scottish soap opera River City, used 3 tracks from the MacDug/Greentrax house tonight! 1 track from The Lassies Reply and 2 tracks from A Good Suit of Clothes! In the posh restaurant scene if you want to catch it on IPlayer- about 40 mins in or so. We reckon thats a first for Gaelic Song in mainstream soaps!
