Stirling woman recalls day she met iconic actor Sir Michael Caine on castle esplanade

A Stirling woman this week recalled fondly the time she met A-list actor Michael Caine on Stirling Castle esplanade while likely skipping school.

Sir Michael had been playing the part of Alan Breck Stewart in the 1971 film version of Robert Louis Stevenson’s Kidnapped which was shot at various locations in Scotland including Stirling Castle, Mull and Culross.

Susan McKerchar, nee Colomby, was joined by cousin Bernadine King, for the trip to the castle where Michael Caine was filming alongside other celebrated actors of the era like Trevor Howard and Gordon Jackson.
