FILM star Ewan McGregor had an unexpected meeting during his epic motorbike trip from John o' Groats to Cape Town - with his mother Carol.
Carol was in Malawi as an ambassador for Sightsavers International, the charity which helps treat eye disease across the world. But the producers of Long Way Down, the TV programme charting her son's three-month trip to raise funds for charity, arranged for mother and son to meet up as their itineraries coincided.
Crieff-born Ewan had no idea that his mother was in Africa. "It was so lovely to see him again," Carol recalls in her Malawi diary, published online by Scotland on Sunday today.
Ewan's epic journey ended on August 4 in Cape Town.
