Young man killed in tragic accident at Edinburgh film studio

A young worker has died after an accident in a film studio partially owned by Jason Connery, son of legendary James Bond actor, Sir Sean. The 30-year-old is believed to have been fatally injured following an incident with a scissor lift at First Stage Studios in Leith, Edinburgh, last month.

Sources said the man, believed to be a construction worker, died at the scene before emergency services arrived. A source said: "It's just been a tragic accident involving a scissor lift. Everyone is devastated for the young man and his family.

"The studio is involved in a huge development plan and is expected to generate lots of jobs and businesses to the area. Nobody could have foreseen such a tragic accident."
