An Ayrshire man has followed in the footsteps of James Bond after scooping a prestigious newspaper award.
Ayr professor John Robertson was in 00-heaven after being presented with the Oliver Brown Award by the board of the Scots Independent newspaper.
The award goes to a journalist, author, critic, illustrator, radio or television performer who, in the opinion of the judges, has done most in the preceding year to advance the cause of Scotland’s self-respect.
