Alex Salmond remembered at St Giles' memorial
Former First Minister Alex Salmond has been remembered at a memorial in Edinburgh where he was hailed as a "political genius".
High-profile figures including First Minister John Swinney and former Prime Minister Gordon Brown gathered at the city's St Giles' Cathedral.
Salmond, 69, died of a heart attack while attending a conference in North Macedonia on 12 October.
The St Andrew's Day service included tributes from political allies and opponents as well as musical performances by Dougie MacLean and The Proclaimers.
Salmond was buried after a private funeral service on 29 October in the village of Strichen in Aberdeenshire, where he had lived for many years with his wife, Moira.
The memorial event was invitation only, with about 500 people attending.
