John Byrne, brilliant Scottish playwright and artist who wrote the TV show Tutti Frutti – obituary

John Byrne, who has died aged 83, was an astonishingly creative person, as brilliant a playwright as he was an artist; The Slab Boys Trilogy is a cast-iron classic of Scottish theatre while his television dramas (including Tutti Frutti and Your Cheatin’ Heart), as well as theatre designs and paintings (he was a superb portraitist) all showed a phenomenal artistic sensibility and drive.
