The Sunday Show is the BBC’s Sunday morning politics programme for Scotland. It is broadcast from the headquarters of BBC Scotland in Pacific Quay, Glasgow. The 30-minute television programme typically follows Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg from New Broadcasting House.

The two-hour long show is simulcast weekly with the first half-hour broadcast on BBC One Scotland and the remainder aired on BBC Radio Scotland.[1]

The programme is currently presented by BBC journalist Gary Robertson.[2] He replaced launch presenter Martin Geissler during a schedule shake-up in late 2025.[3]

History

The show replaced the Sunday Politics Scotland television show and the Sunday edition of the Good Morning Scotland radio show.[4] Gordon Brewer who presented Sunday Politics Scotland had announced his retirement in October 2020.[5] The new show first aired on 7 February 2021.[6]
