Dundee's third most successful cheeseburger van owner looks back on his career - righting wrongs, bearing grudges and offering what he has learnt about life, romance, Scotland, and running a genuinely profitable burger van.

Whether he is providing advice on the best way to approach a funeral or compliment a woman, or negotiating a pardon from the Tayside Police for a litany of minor criminal charges; Bob's delusion and determination never fail. These qualities are unflinchingly demonstrated when urging his doctor to provide on-air confirmation of his physical attributes or - most importantly - persevering in his attempts to re-establish contact with Lulu, who he met outside a petrol station in 1983 and with whom, in his words, he formed a 'genuine lifelong connection'.
