It’s been 40 years since BBC Scotland first introduced Dòtaman, the beloved Gaelic children's show that captured the hearts of viewers across Scotland. At the time, no one could have foreseen the profound impact the show would have, or the fame it would bring to its charismatic host, Donnie 'Dòtaman' MacLeod. Over the years, Dòtaman grew into one of the most iconic Gaelic TV programmes ever made.
Famous for its trademark hats, captivating stories, colourful costumes, and unforgettable songs - all of which Donnie performed himself on his trusty guitar—the show aired over 400 episodes during its 16-year run, winning the affection of audiences of all ages.
Now, four decades since the beginning, Donnie Dòtaman and his guitar are back! Join us at HebCelt for a special celebration, where Donnie will lead a sing-along to all the classic Dòtaman tunes. It’s an afternoon of nostalgia and fun on the green that you won’t want to miss.
