Choose Leith! Once the gritty Trainspotting setting, Edinburgh's dockland quarter has gone up in the world

Katie Tilbury says Leith has 'historically insalubrious' associations, but that these shouldn't put you off visiting. Now, it's home to a plethora of new bars, restaurants and interesting shops. Not to mention, it has a luxury floating hotel, with double rooms from £300.

Irvine Welsh's Crime drama series two leaves viewers 'curious' about the transgender plot after writer said criticism of JK Rowling left him 'deeply uncomfortable'

The debut episode of  Irvine Welsh's drama Crime left viewers 'curious' about the transgender plot, two months after the actor said criticism of JK Rowling left him 'deeply uncomfortable'.  The second series kicked off on Wednesday night with gender identity playing a strong theme.  This came as a surprise to some fans of the show as Trainspotting novelist Irvine, 65, had previously weighed in on the trans debate and Harry Potter author JK's views.  

Irvine Welsh's Crime review: A joyless hour with a trans-friendly, nettle tea-drinking Rebus rip-off, writes CHRISTOPHER STEVENS

www.dailymail.co.uk, August 7, 2024
CHRISTOPHER STEVENS: Here's a deadly drinking game, for anyone with an asbestos liver and a craving for gritty police thrillers - watch Irvine Welsh 's Crime and take a slug of cheap whisky every time it rips off Rebus. Long before the six-part series is over, you'll be pickled like an onion. The similarities between Welsh's anti-hero DI Ray Lennox (Dougray Scott) and novelist Ian Rankin's DI John Rebus (played on BBC1 earlier this year by Richard Rankin) are not parallels - they're photocopies. Both are cynical alcoholics, maverick cops hunting killers in Edinburgh . Both are emotionally damaged and single, regarded with a mixture of resentment, reverence and suspicion by their colleagues.
