The amazing village of Pennan, set on a shelf below north-facing cliffs on the north Aberdeenshire coast and still famous for its role in the 1983 film Local Hero. More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/pen

The amazing village of Pennan. The image shows a view along the sea wall with a concrete path on top of it. There's a stony beach to the left descending to the sea, which looks blue under a clear blue sky. To the right is a grassy strip and posts for hanging clothes, then a road and the white cottages and houses of the village. The land rises steeply behind the village and there's a large headland in the background.

The renowned actor Jack Shepherd died this week aged 85. He played the lead character in “Wycliffe” for five years in the 1990s and I talked to his co-star Jimmy Yuill about his late colleague. Golspie stalwart Jimmy - who has appeared in everything from “Local Hero” to “Shetland” and Shakespeare - didn’t just like and respect Jack; he is forever grateful to him for saving his life! #JackShepherd #JimmyYuill #Wycliffe #LocalHero pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/news/

The Local Hero music that #nufc use before each match is amazing. As is the film - highly recommended if you've not watched it.

The bronze statue of Major Alida Bosshardt stands, or better yet… sits, on the Oudezijds Voorburgwal, in front of the “Salvation Army” building. Made by artist Peter de Leeuwe in 2013 as a tribute to her years of service to the vulnerable. 🙏😊

Born on June 8, 1913, in Utrecht, and passing on June 25, 2007, in Amsterdam, Bosshardt was a key “Salvation Army” figure. During WWII, she helped Jewish children and later supported sex workers and the homeless in the Red Light District. 🏮

Her efforts earned national recognition, including the title ‘Righteous Among the Nations’ from “Yad Vashem” in 2004. 🎖️

villaggio di Pennan
A row of whitewashed houses with red-tiled roofs lines the shore of a small cove. A low, concrete seawall runs in front of the houses. Behind the houses, a grassy hillside rises steeply. The calm water of the cove is visible in the foreground, with rocks covered in green algae along the shoreline and a sandy beach between the wall and the water. The sky is overcast and grey.A blue and white fishing boat labeled "FR 607" is docked in front of several white houses with blue window frames. A smaller blue and white inflatable boat named "Navigator II" sits on a trailer in front of the larger vessel. A grassy hill with a reddish cliff face is visible in the background.
