Delighted Still Game fans met Jack and Victor today at a city supermarket.
Greg Hemphill and Ford Kiernan made a special appearance at Glasgow’s Crown Street Co-op in the Gorbals.
The duo met with fans to sign bottles of Jack & Victor Blended Scotch Whisky and Still Gin in time for Father’s Day next week.
Their appearance comes after American whisky producer Jack Daniels took issue with the pair's application to register the brand name as a trademark, saying the name was too similar to its own and that consumers could get confused between the two.
However, after a hearing where Hemphill gave evidence that showed how synonymous the brand name was with the show, the UK Intellectual Property Office ruled in the Scottish brand’s favour.
