The warden taken hostage during the infamous Peterhead Prison siege of 1987 has died at the age of 93.
Jackie Stuart gained international fame after TV footage showed him being hauled on to the roof of the Aberdeenshire prison by inmates, with a hooded prisoner swinging a weapon at his head.
After being held hostage by life-serving prisoners for five days, which included being stabbed, he was dramatically rescued by the SAS in scenes that shocked the nation.
The Press & Journal says Mr Stuart was later instrumental in setting up the popular Peterhead Prison Museum, which opened its doors to the public in June 2016.
Described as a "hero" and a "stalwart", he was a dedicated servant of the tourist attraction and shared his stories with many a visitor as a guide.

The former prison officer also had his own seat in the admissions area, where visitors were welcomed by his cheery smile and interesting stories.
Tribute
Paying tribute to Mr Stuart, museum operations manager Alex Geddes said: "The whole team are devastated to hear the sad news about the death of Jackie and our thoughts are with his family during this time.
"Jackie has been a stalwart of the museum since its inception back in 2014 and was the driving force behind it since that time.
"Visitors from across the world loved it when he was on site and for them to meet him in person after the tour was the icing on the cake."
