The organisers of an annual community event in Scotland have been criticised for allowing an "offensive and insensitive" Jimmy Savile themed float to enter the fancy dress parade.
One man dressed up as the disgraced former television presenter while others wore schoolgirl uniforms as part of the Lauder Common Riding event in the Scottish Borders.
Branded one of the UK's most prolific sexual predators, Savile has more than 200 criminal offences recorded against his name, including more than 30 rapes.
The Jim'll Fix It branded float was entered into the Lauder parade by members of the local Twenty 10 Club on July 31 - and was awarded third place in the Best Vehicle category.
Gregory Kynoch from Edinburgh was in the crowd and said the stunt was "inappropriate" and "out of order" on the Facebook page of the Lauder Common Riding committee the following day.
