Born in 1930 in Fountainbridge, Sir Sean Connery was a world-famous actor and perhaps Edinburgh's most famous son. He was the first actor to portray fictional British secret agent James Bond on film, starring in seven Bond films between 1962 and 1983. His achievements in film were recognised with an Academy Award, two BAFTA Awards (including the BAFTA Fellowship), and three Golden Globes. He was knighted in the 2000 New Year Honours for services to film drama. A staunch supporter of Scottish independence, he is pictured in Holyrood Park heading to the opening of the Scottish Parliament in 2004.

Mr Harper served as co-convener of the party until 2008 and remained an MSP until steping down at the 2011 election. Mr Ballard served only one term before leaving the parliament in 2007.
