Telefios
''Telefios'' was a Scottish Gaelic-language news programme, broadcast on both Grampian Television and Scottish Television from 4 January 1993 until 2000. Its name is a ''portmanteau'' of the word ''fios'' meaning "knowledge" or "information", and ''telebhisean'' ("television"). Although not strictly a local news bulletin, the programme concentrated mainly on Western Isles news, and specifically Gaelic interest news stories from elsewhere. Five-minute bulletins were shown on weekday lunchtimes (and later, in the early evening) while a supplementary half-hour review programme, ''Telefios na Seachduinn'', was broadcast on Saturday lunchtime. Other Scottish Gaelic news programmes It is sometimes wrongly stated that ''Telefios'' was actually the first Scottish Gaelic news programme. In fact, ''Criomagan'' (meaning "little bits") was broadcast during the late 1980s and early 1990s by Grampian Television. Following the axing of ''Telefios'' in 2000, no Scots Gaelic television news p ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Derek MacIntosh
Derek is a masculine given name. It is the English language short form of ''Diederik'', the Low Franconian form of the name Theodoric.
