The Papal Conquest

Alexander Robertson is a 'makar' or maker. From his trade background of making a living from his skill in joinery, he exploited a childhood interest in paint, paper and plasticine, to become a painter in oils and a sculptor in clay. An early interest in joke telling proved his introduction to writing short stories which led to dialogue and his first success. This was with the BBC which was a successful collaboration with many plays produced and broadcast over the years. LUCK OF THE DRAW, a comedy was the first, and continues as a theatre play, to be performed around the globe. In all his making he has been supported by his family and first reader wife who has played the greatest role in 'making ' him.
