Nineteen Eighty-Five was an eventful year in Scotland's capital city, with several exciting openings across the city.
Queen Elizabeth II gave Waverley Market her royal approval, slicing the red ribbon to mark the newly-built shopping mall's official opening. Pop act The Thompson Twins opened a huge new HMV record store on Princes Street, and on North Bridge, locals flocked to the opening of the city's first ever Argos store.
