As the twentieth century began, Scottish local authorities would load problem children into vans and taxis bound for remote island communities. To be fostered to local families, with few references or checks. Similar schemes continued into the 1960s. Indeed some Scottish children were sent as far as Canada or Australia, without parental consent.

The final film in the series meets the veterans of the Scottish care system. Some forever damaged by that system. Some redeemed by it. The film examines how councils, churches and charities treated orphaned, abused and neglected children. And how in the space of a century, Scotland's authorities learned to cope, and occasionally to love, the country's most vulnerable children.
