    My grandparents were from Dundee. In 1919 they came to South Africa. They had two daughters and my Dad Charles William McCulloch. During world war two my father was in Kimberley Regiment. He saw active duty in the desert against Rommel. Then onto Italy. Sadly Charles only had two daughters. My Mother was a Boer lady tough as the climate in SA. Sadly my grandparents died when I was tiny. Would have loved to have known my McCulloch grandparents. Dundee I will never see you but thanks for the sturdy folk you raised. I am very proud of my Scots and Boer blood. Warriors we are. Estelle Rachel Boy

    I won a contest in my primary school to get on board Discovery. I was in the newspaper! (I'm American, by the way. Lived in Dundee from age 5- almost 12). I miss it. Thank you for this video.

    Nice vid about a much maligned city. Dundee is a great place ( not without problems shared by all cities) and well worth a visit. If you want to see the real Scotland and not the tartan tat served up to tourists, this is the place.

    I was thinking of visiting, but a lot of the films on here, made by locals, are really critical of the place, focusing on major drug issues. They also often poke fun at the ugliness of some of the architecture! It has put me off somewhat, but it is nice to see a different perspective.

      Loads of people like to knock Dundee, both outsiders and the local NEGATIVE types. They always see the grass as being greener. Then say, if they moved to Glasgow, Liverpool, or Plymouth, within 3 years they'd be downing their new home city.

      Wee bit too late to worry about "new" Dundee. Ald Dundee was destroyed through the ages let's say many forces. The main destruction (Wellgate, Cowgate, etc) was masterminded in the 60's/ 70's by a corrupt Local council. They ripped the heart out of Dundee to make way for bloody shopping centers, carparks and so on. FFs there's a carpark built around the 60's with gravestones....built into the walls! ( one is a great great great Grandfather of mine!!! So before ye go criticizing the development think about who let ithe Ald Dundee go in the first pace-us. My Brither, Brither in Law helped to save the tram sheds for the Dundee Museum of Transport you have no ide of how hard Dundee City Council fought to have them pulled down....seriously. Those who forget their history are doomed to repeat the same mistakes ...
