All's fair in love and satire for motor-mouth Rory Bremner, but he admits Nicola Sturgeon is off-limits, and the state of the Union is beyond a joke.

Janet Christie, The Scotsman, 21st December 2014

In his recently-published, tremendously indiscreet diaries, Daily Telegraph journalist Alan Cochrane mused about meeting Rory Bremner before the referendum. The satirical impressionist apparently spoke "in a funny voice" for a few minutes, leaving Cochrane flabbergasted when it was revealed he was supposed to be "doing" Alex Salmond.

Let's hope Bremner has mastered it by now, as this is his last round-up of this extraordinary year of Scottish affairs, including interviews with some of the major players, from punters to pundits to politicians. Now re-settled in Scotland, after a career mostly based around Westminster politics, Bremner's first Holyrood special last year showed him trying to get a grip on the referendum before it really began (something that many national commentators found themselves scrabbling to do at the last minute). So what is his conclusion now? And how on earth will he portray Nicola Sturgeon?
