Chariots of Fire Premiere

Edinburgh Lord it up

As part of the Edinburgh Film Festival the premiere of the remastered version of Chariots of Fire premiered in Edinburgh tonight. It also ran (forgive the pun) in London.

However Edinburgh got Lord David Puttnam for our red carpet premiere.The following shots are of some of the guests who include Gavin and Scott Hastings, Nicola Sturgeon, Craig Hill, Nicole Tracy(Miss Scotland) Nicola Sturgeon, and Ally McCoist

Also at the premiere were Joan Nicol and Sue Liddell Caton, nieces of Eric Liddell. Liddell was the winner of the men's 400 metres at the 1924 Summer Olympics in Paris. Liddell's Olympic training and racing, and the religious convictions that influenced him, are depicted in the Oscar-winning 1981 film Chariots of Fire, in which he is portrayed by fellow Scot Ian Charleson.
