An Englishman voting Yes and a Scotsman voting No

Lying behind the apparently simple binary choice of the Scottish Referendum, voters are being asked a much deeper question - who are you and who do you want to be.

After hearing conversations on PM by party leaders talking about identity in the context of Scotland's future - listener Dr Woolf got in touch. He's an Englishman who moved to Scotland in 1997 where he lectures in Medieval History at St Andrews University. He was originally a unionist but now intends to vote yes. He put us in a touch with a colleague of his, Professor Jim Naismith, who teaches Biology and is a firm unionist from the West of Scotland. They talk personally about their decisions to Jennifer Tracey.
