00:00 Well, this is the third time we've been coming and Jules is presenting an award tonight.
00:04 And I just think the people that you meet are so extraordinary.
00:08 And we've always, the first couple of years we were like, we were inspired
00:12 and we just want to keep coming back year after year.
00:16 It's the feeling of this one, it's like the stories and the way they put
00:20 together all the stories, there's something about it and it's a really emotional night
00:24 and there's just always a lovely, lovely feeling in the room. Honestly, it's fantastic.
00:28 So, it is really important, it's a really important one.
00:31 Pride of Scotland is so important to me because why not celebrate all the amazing
00:36 people we have in our country and just shout from the rooftops and have a big
00:40 a big knees up celebrating them and hopefully making them feel special.
00:44 This event is very important because as I was previously saying, I've been to a lot of
00:50 as an actor you go to lots of shows and award ceremonies and people get,
00:58 it's a sort of self-congratulatory thing, but this is very different.
01:02 This award is for people who are unsung, who did it not expecting to be recognised
01:12 for what they did, but just doing things for their community.
01:16 And that is incredibly important, you know, that sense of cohesion within the community,
01:22 doing great stuff for people and I'm very happy to be here and to award people
01:30 who have made a real difference to our society. Not actors that, you know, do their
01:36 thing and that's fine, but people that have really spent their lives making a difference
01:42 to our society and I feel privileged to be part of that.
01:47 Tonight is all about everybody else and it just sheds light and brings a whole exposure
01:55 to the whole event so that's incredible.
01:58 An incredible celebration of, you know, some people who've made some incredibly
02:02 remarkable achievements in Scotland and what a wonderful day to celebrate them all.
