Two Still Game stars have received honorary doctorates from Queen Margaret University. Jane McGarry and Mark Cox, who played know-it-all OAP Isa Drennan and penny-pincher Tam Mullen in the hit BBC show, respectively, were granted the title Doctor at Edinburgh's Usher Hall yesterday.
The pair, who are also pals in real life, both studied at QMU, which was marking 50 years of drama teaching with this summer's graduations.
Jane was involved in the Chewin' the Fat radio show, but was not a part of the cast when it hit TV screens - a move which would propel Mark - along with Greg Hemphill, Ford Kiernan and Paul Riley - to stardom and eventually lead to Still Game's commisioning.
