Crisis at the Castle

Did anyone watch this last night about kelburn? I saw only a tiny bit of it - Patrick Boyle (the Lord) hired a New Zealand couple as manager and chef - I'm trying to find out their names, they look like friends of my mother's from years and years ago (but not sure due to not knowing names & only seeing a glance).

Does anyone remember or can find details on the web somewhere? I have searched everywhere and can't find a thing!

Thanks!

    Is it just the names you need? I have it recorded and will pause when it gets to that bit if you like.

    I looked but you can't watch it on I player. and it was on again at 1am this morning.

    It may be worth contacting them as someone may remember. Good luck.

    Sue and Peter Nutsville Mills? Sue and Peter is right thats for sure! He is a NZlander she was born not far from the castle and Peter's great grandfather worked for a former Lord Glasgow in NZ.

    Sue had been an events manager for Devere Hotels.

    Pity you only saw a glance as there is really quite a bit of footage of them both.

    Edinburghlass you are an absolute star! Thanks heaps - must be honest and say that the names don't ring a bell - but i'll check with my sis just in case... only had a glance so might be wrong but just the accents etc.. swayed me.

    thanks again x
