Dropped by their record company, a bruised Ricky Ross and Lorraine McIntosh spent seven years lying low and raising children before deciding to reform their band Deacon Blue. Now they face the prospect of fame all over again. Words: Anna Burnside
RICKY Ross and Lorraine McIntosh lift their eyes up to the domed ceiling of Corinthian's dining room. "This is posh," says McIntosh. They have never been to Corinthian before. They don't get into town much. Since Deacon Blue split up in 1994, they have gone from A-list pop stardom to family life in Glasgow's Newlands, bypassing the C-list hinterland of launch parties and ostentatious restaurants completely.

In spite of a troubled childhood, actress and singer Lorraine McIntosh has found true happiness through her own family. And here she tells Margaret Clayton why shell never take that for granted.
LORRAINE McINTOSH has a summer of high drama ahead of her. Not strictly Lorraine though, but her alter ego Alice in the BBC Scotland soap River City.
Alice, a single mum and recovering alcoholic, never has anything easy in life its one crisis after another as her past comes back to bite her and the problems pile up.
I work on River City five days a week from 7 am till 7 pm, Lorraine explains. Its hard work but the crew have such fun together. Theres a real buzz about working on a soap.
When I get the script I devour it to see whats happening to Alice now. I love her character. She got on the wrong side of the tracks but shes a feisty woman and she believes in fighting back.
The character is a world removed from the pleasant life of 39-year-old Lorraine, singer, actress, wife and mum who lives in a beautiful stone villa on the south side of Glasgow with Ricky Ross of 80s pop group Deacon Blue.
Ricky is, according to Lorraine, the perfect husband. She says happiness crept up on her when she was least expecting
