The countdown is on to the Pride Of Scotland Awards telly spectacular - and hosts Elaine C Smith and Sanjeev Kohli have revealed it is time to get the hankies ready.
Still Game star Sanjeev, 50, and Rab C Nesbitt legend Elaine, 63, said the emotional show was a reflection of an inspiring nation.
Elaine said: "We wanted to make sure it was 'of Scotland' - it had to reflect us and what makes us unique and it certainly was.
"I know people will want to know my favourite moment but there were so many stand-out moments, too many to mention.
"But I loved meeting the winners, seeing little Zac's face when Paw Patrol appeared - it would be like George Clooney coming on for me, meeting Mila Sneddon and seeing Sir Geoff Palmer, this eminent professor who has achieved so much, coming on stage.
"Having Lulu there singing to us all? It was the best of us, it really was, and a celebration of modern Scotland, how the place has changed and who we are today."
Sanjeev said the glittering ceremony, which will see a host of celebrities including Sam Heughan, John Hannah, Ricky Gervais, Eddie Redmayne and Lorraine Kelly honouring the winners, is the perfect antidote to yet another challenging and heartbreaking year.
The dad-of-three also said he felt both humbled and honoured to be at the helm of the event and starstruck to be sharing the stage with his comedy hero Elaine.
He said: "It was an extremely emotional experience and I had to try my hardest to keep my composure when the winners' stories were revealed. They really got to me but I tried to be professional and not let it show.
"It was a night full of real-life superheroes. Scotland has a million reasons to be proud of their people and these awards are testament to the greatest and most humble
