Ahead of Storm Goretti hitting the UK and Aberdeenshire Council declaring a ‘major incident’ due to snowfall, Martin and Natalie speak to Nick Russell, one of the men who manages much of Scotland’s gritter system.

They talk about how Nick and the team keep the country moving, what it’s like behind the wheel and their favourite names of Scotland’s infamous gritters.
