It's time for us to celebrate our nation's unsung heroes.
FORGET the Baftas and the Brits, when it comes to awards shows, the Daily Record Pride of Scotland Awards with P&O Cruises was the hottest ticket in town.
Our People’s Oscars honoured the nation’s unsung heroes - ordinary people quietly living extraordinary lives and making a difference in their communities.
From humbling acts of kindness and selfless acts of bravery to raising millions for charity, our country is packed to the rafters with incredible folk who have done amazing things that deserve to be celebrated.
And on Monday night we did just that with a red-carpet extravaganza at the Glasgow Hilton which saw some of the world’s biggest stars pay tribute to our winners.
Famous names who took part included Succession actor Brian Cox, singing star Susan Boyle, Rab C. Nesbitt actress Barbara Rafferty, Star Wars actor Denis Lawson and Braveheart legend James Cosmo, who all paid special tribute to our 12 winners alongside First Minister John Swinney.
