In Lewis and Harris, in the Hebrides, the tradition of Sunday observance is shifting.
Tha Leòdhas 's na Hearadh, anns na h-Eileanan Siar, a-measg na h-à iteachan mu dheireadh a tha a'cumail na Sabaid ann am Breatainn. Tha cuisean ag atharrachadh air na h-eileannan, ge ta, le dùbhlan air a dhèanamh air beachdan traidiseanta mun t-Sabaid. A' coinneachadh ri iomadh tè 's fear as a' phobaill, bho ministearan gu pà rantan gu luchd-naidheachd, tha e soilleir gu bheil iomadh argamaid ann airson an traidisean a tha seo a chumail beò. Tha aon nì air am faod gach aon dhiù aontachadh, ge ta - gum faic na bliadhnachan a tha ri teachd atharrachadh air an t-Sabaid, a bhios riatanach ann mar a thèid an latha a' ghleidheadh le ginnealachdan eile.
Lewis and Harris, in the Hebrides, are amongst the last bastions of strong Sunday observance in Britain. However, things are changing on the islands with traditional views on Sabbath keeping being challenged.
Encountering various members of the public, from ministers to parents to journalists, it is clear that the range of arguments for and against the upkeep of this religious tradition is diverse. The one thing upon which they can all agree, is that the coming years will continue to see a shifting Sabbath, which will be critical in how the day will be observed by future generations.
