STARS of The Stone of Destiny posed with Ian Hamilton, whose 1950 theft of the stone from Westminster Abbey inspired the new film.
Robert Carlyle, Kate Mara and Billy Boyd attended the premiere at Cineworld in Fountainpark on Saturday, as part of the Edinburgh International Film Festival. They were joined by Sir Sean Connery, the festival's patron.

The film tells the story of the four young nationalists who decided to return the stone to its rightful home. It is based on the memoirs of Mr Hamilton, who led the plot.

The film will be shown again tonight ahead of its release nationwide. The Edinburgh International Film Festival, the longest continually-running in the world, features 142 films from 29 countries this year. It is also hosting 15 world premieres.

Will people please refer to this object as the "alleged stone" please. There is no proof of what it is purported to be!
