Bit of an obscure one here but if one person reads it, I'll have done my job!

Tonight on Mastermind one of the specialist subjects is 'Scottish post-punk bands'.

LOL! Depends on your definition of post-punk I suppose. I do not want to be sat there listening to questions about Simple bloody Minds, though I fear I will be. Orange Juice were Scottish weren't they? Mary Chain obviously. Were The Primitives Scottish? (Indeed are they 'post-punk'?)

Teenage Fanclub!!

Orange Juice was definitely Scottish.  Edwyn Collins of OJ went on to have a US based hit in this:
