Of course it would need to be a world stops spinning type masterpiece to eclipse the original but Rozi Plain almost achieves the impossible. On this occasion ‘The Lang Toun’ might be decidedly shorter but the wide-eyed nature of Plain’s reworking is bright and skittish. No wonder our very own Maeve Higgins has used it to great effect in her new cooking programme. Could she do for food what Tommy Cooper did for magic? I hope so because she really is a gas (hob). Rozi Plain released her debut ‘Inside Over Here’ on Fence Records (the Yorkston connection) and works on a ferry by day which must make for lots of happy tea breaks on board. KD
