Youth centre staging live students' Question Time

It's a big night for year 12 politics students at St Ninian's High School.

They are staging their own version of BBC television's political debating programme Question Time before a live audience this evening (Thursday).

The A-level politics group overcame stiff competition from more than 1,000 schools across the British Isles to reach the final 15.

Tonight’s performance will be judged by industry professionals and the four winning teams will work behind the scenes on a live Question Time programme in July.

These students hope to bring politics alive (play audio file):

The St Ninian's live Question Time debate is at Douglas Youth Centre from 6.30pm.
