BRAVEHEART star JAMES COSMO and KAREN GILLAN, TV timelord DOCTOR WHO’s one-time assistant, have been named Edinburgh International Film Festival honorary patrons.
The two Scottish actors were honoured as the 69th festival drew to a close on Sunday (28Jun15).
They join Tilda Swinton and Robert Carlyle as honorary patrons.
Accepting the accolade, Cosmo said, “It’s a real honour and a genuine privilege to serve as honorary patron for the Edinburgh International Film Festival. As a Scots born actor, EIFF has always held a place in my heart and I look forward to working with the other honorary patrons and all the staff there as the festival moves into its 70th edition in June 2016.”
