AN invitation has been issued to Renfrewshire bookworms by the makers of a BBC television programme.

Producers of the Big Scottish Book Club want to hear from people who are passionate about reading and would like to be involved in the show's fourth series.

The programme will see Damian Barr return to host some of the biggest names and new talent in fiction, non-fiction and poetry from around the world, as they discuss themes such as crime, families, memoir and the power of stories.

A spokesperson said: "Are you and your friends always chatting about books?

"Are your colleagues constantly recommending their latest read?

"Do you have a favourite book you want to shout about?

"If that sounds like you - get in touch."

Those who are interested in being involved in the upcoming series of the Big Scottish Book Club should send an email to BSBC@iwcmedia.co.uk with some information about themselves and their love of books.
