''The Vital Spark'' was a Scottish television series set in the western isles of Scotland in the 1930s, based on the Para Handy books by Neil Munro. It starred Roddy McMillan as Peter "Para Handy" MacFarlane, captain of the puffer ''Vital Spark''. The series followed the ''Vital Spark's'' adventures around the coastal waters of west Scotland and the various schemes that Para Handy would get himself and his crew involved in. The comedy was first broadcast in August 1965 as an episode of the BBC’s Comedy Playhouse. Following this two series, of six and seven episodes respectively, were commissioned by BBC Scotland and aired in early 1966, and autumn 1967. Both series were made in black-and-white. In March 1973 an hour-long TV Special was made, in colour, featuring the same cast. After the success of this, a further six episodes (essentially remakes of previous scripts but in a more contemporary setting) were commissioned, airing in autumn 1974.
