Scotland's population is aging fast, so BBC Scotland and the BIG Lottery Fund have joined forces to improve life for the over 50s. Across the series up to 3 million pounds of grants will be awarded to six projects. In Primetime, you choose who receives the funding. This week, three projects from the Highlands and Islands are hoping to receive up to 500,000 pounds. Dougie Vipond spends time with them all and finds them fired up with an amazing range of ideas to change the lives of Scotland's over 50s. More information at bbc.co.uk/primetime.
