The View made me feel truly Shameless
Filming powerful new army drama The Mark of Cain in the heat of the Sahara desert was hell for actor Gerard Kearns.
But it was nothing compared to spending two days in Dundee with Scots rockers The View when he starred in the video for their latest single, The Don/Skag Trendy.
