Prue Leith was spotted in Glasgow after taking in the sights on an open top bus.

They continued: "In hindsight we really should have baked some tattie scones for the occasion."
The bus tour would have taken Prue through all of the highlights of Glasgow - from the historic centre at George Square, out to the east at Glasgow Green,Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum in the west end and out to the stunning Glasgow Cathedral.
Prue's sightseeing trip would have been a welcome bit of downtime from the tour of her first ever live show, which explores her life through the ups and downs of being a successful restaurateur, novelist, businesswoman.
Speaking about her tour, the TV personality told radio host Chris Evans: "I just talk about my life. And most people think that what I do is eat cake for a living, which of course I do. But I do a lot of other things. And I've had a very interesting life and a wonderful one."

Christopher Vourlias The war in Ukraine has taken center stage this week at the Berlin Film Festival, which is taking place for the first time since Russia’s full-scale invasion last year. At Thursday’s opening ceremony, Ukrainian president Volodomyr Zelenskyy appeared via satellite to encourage festival-goers “not to remain silent” over Russia’s unprovoked war of aggression. Sean Penn, who this week premiered his docu-portrait of the Ukrainian leader, “Superpower,” lashed out at Russian strongman Vladimir Putin, who he described as a “war criminal” and a “creepy little bully.” Moral outrage has not been in short supply since the start of the war, as the global film community — in a show of near unanimous condemnation of the Kremlin’s criminal attack — has rallied behind the Ukrainian war effort. But many U.S. and foreign companies quietly continue to do business with Putin’s pariah state or have resumed the deal-making that was put on pause once the war began.
