Following the death of Eye For Film co-founder Angus Wolfe Murray earlier this month, his son Rupert has extended an invitation to Eye For Film readers who enjoyed his work to attend his funeral, which will be held in Peebles at 11am on Thursday 9 February.

A 250 seat cinema at the town's Eastgate Theatre will be the venue for a memorial service celebrating the writer's colourful and unusual life. Meanwhile, tributes continue to accrue online, and you are welcome to add your own.
