Imaging debris disks around nearby stars gives an "effective" time series of how planetary systems form and evolve from their primordial disks. JCMT/SCUBA observations have revealed diverse clumps and cavities, and modelling has shown these structures are evidence of perturbations from unseen planets. The disks studied so far are compatible in size to the Solar System and hence this research provides a unique way of exploring the outer regions of extrasolar planetary systems. In this talk I will review the observations so far undertaken as well as presenting new (unpublished) data on several debris disks. Also discussed is a large legacy survey to be undertaken in the submm with the new SCUBA-2 camera from mid-2006 onwards.
