Actor Robbie Coltrane throws support behind bid to restore Glasgow-built steamship

Actor Robbie Coltrane has raised £75,000 towards restoring a famous Clyde-built steamship.

The star has been selling personalised videos to fans on celebrity video site 'Cameo' from £12 to help fund the restoration of the TS Queen Mary.

The iconic ship will undergo a £6m restoration, with over £3.8m of that having already been raised. The charity tasked with the project, Friends of TS Queen Mary, had already raised that amount, and now Coltrane's donation will get them even closer to target, reports the Daily Record.
