Commuters passing through Glasgow Central Station today may spot something unusual on the concourse floor.

A massive “Weclome” mat, styled exactly like the famously misspelt doormat from cult sitcom Still Game , has been rolled out across the concourse and roped off for passerbys to take photos.

Teasing something Still Game -related, BBC Scotland posted this on social media: “People huv tae know! Weclome to Glasgow. Get yerself along to Glasgow Central Station today and get a picture with a giant version of the classic doormat from Still Game.

"Add #WeclomeMat to your pictures and we’ll repost some through the day. #MadeOfGlasgow #StillGame #ThisIsOurBBC”.

The stunt has inevitably raised questions about what BBC Scotland could be teasing. With no further details released, the appearance of one of the show’s most recognisable props in such a prominent location suggests some form of Still Game-related announcement may be on the way.
