Colin Steele McRae, MBE (5 August 1968 – 15 September 2007) was a Scottish rally driver born in Lanark.

The son of five-time British Rally Champion Jimmy McRae and brother of rally driver Alister McRae, Colin McRae was the 1991 and 1992 British Rally Champion and, in 1995, became the first British person and the youngest to win the World Rally Championship Drivers' title. He still holds that record.

McRae's outstanding performance on the Subaru World Rally Team enabled the team to win the World Rally Championship Constructors' title three times in succession in 1995, 1996 and 1997. After a four-year spell with the Ford Motor Co. team, which saw McRae win nine events, he moved to Citroën World Rally Team in 2003 where, despite not winning an event, he helped them win the first of their three consecutive manufacturers' titles. He was appointed a Member of the Order of the British Empire for services to motorsport in 1996.

McRae died in 2007 when the helicopter he was piloting crashed near his home. The accident also claimed the lives of his son and two family friends. In November 2008 he was posthumously inducted into the Scottish Sports Hall of Fame.

The tragic loss of Colin, Johnny, Ben and Graeme on Sepember 15 2007 is still hard to believe. This is a memorial/tribute from Pirate Motorsport to a champion, a hero, a legend and much more. I had the great joy in interviewing Colin and getting drunk with him in a bar following the Rally GB in 2003. Our team sends it's condolences to the families, to Derek Ringer and Nicky Grist who were such a major part of Colin's success and all who knew him well. Two phrases that will forever stick in the minds of people who watched Colin throughout the years.... "Flat Out!" and "No problem Tony..." after Tony Mason interviewed him for so many years. Rest in Peace mate and try to keep those other two bar misfits in order upstairs, Mr Burns and Mr Park!!

SEBASTIAN SHAKESPEARE: Robert Peston admits he smoked 'a lot of dope' from the age of 12 While the ministers he interviews are always reluctant to discuss their colourful pasts, attention-loving TV presenter Robert Peston has decided to reveal his own history of drug taking. Political editor Peston, who defected to ITV in a £400,000 move from the BBC earlier this year, admits he was a heavy user of cannabis. However, he claims the drug did not cause him or his contemporaries in bohemian London circles any lasting damage. After confessing that he drank a lot of beer, wine and cider as a teenager, the Labour peer’s son says he took what he describes as ‘a lot of dope’.  ‘I didn’t do hard drugs but from about the age of 12, 13 onwards there was a lot of dope around and we smoked it,’ Peston says. Numerous studies have linked marijuana use to increased risk for psychiatric disorders, including psychosis, depression and anxiety, but Peston claims there were no ill-effects. ‘I’m not remotely saying it’s a good thing to smoke any of that kind of stuff,’ he says. ‘I’m just saying that it happened, and if I look around the people that I grew up with, I don’t think it did any of us any serious harm. It certainly didn’t do me any serious harm.’  Peston, who is known for his strangulated vowels and long pauses, says he delayed making his admission, to be broadcast on a forthcoming edition of Radio 4 programme My Teenage Diary, until his son reached adulthood. ‘One of the reasons I left talking about my diaries until this age was my youngest kid is now 18, so I can’t be a bad influence on him by talking about quite how much we drank in the early Seventies.’ The 56-year-old broadcaster, whose writer wife Sian Busby died of lung cancer in 2012, launched his new political talk show, Peston on Sunday, earlier this month to disappointing ratings

Whatever happens in the event of an Out vote, we'll try to negotiate some kind of friendly deal with the EU, as it accounts for 44% of our exports. Unfortunately, it's not just down to us, it's also down to them. So how might the conversation with Brussels go? We asked a veteran diplomat to look into that. Jonathan Powell served as Tony Blair's chief of staff in Downing Street; he's firmly for Remaining in - and with the help of a former EU commissioner, Antonio Vittorino - here's his take on the discussion we might be starting in a month's time.

Could Japan's famed ninja warriors and traditional women divers help turn around the fortunes of Japan's remote Mie region? It takes four hours to get to by train if you're travelling from the capital Tokyo, and is set to play host to a G7 summit later this year. The BBC's Mariko Oi says the local government is now hoping to enlist two of country's vanishing professions - its traditional women diver and the famed black-clad warriors - to bring in tourists to help jumpstart the economy.

    Beach Boys

    Unfolding enveloping missiles of soul
    Recall senses sadly
    Mirage like soft blue like lanterns below
    To light the way gladly
    Whether whistling heaven's clouds disappear
    Where the wind withers memory
    Whether whiteness whisks soft shadows away
    Feel flows (White hot glistening shadowy flows)
    Feel goes (Black hot glistening shadowy flows)
    Unbending never ending tablets of time
    Record all the yearning
    Unfearing all appearing message divine
    Eases the burning
    Whether willing witness waits at my mind
    Whether hope dampens memory
    Whether wondrous will stands tall at my side
    Feel flows (White hot glistening shadowy flows)
    Feel goes (Black hot glistening shadowy flows)
    Encasing all embracing wreath of repose
    Engulfs all the senses
    Imposing, unclosing thoughts that compose
    Retire the fences
    Whether wholly heartened life fades away
    Whether harps heal the memory
    Whether wholly heartened life fades away
    Whether wondrous will stands tall at my side
    Whether whiteness whisks soft shadows away
    Feel goes (White hot glistening shadowy flows)
    Feel flows (Black hot glistening shadowy flows)
    Feel goes (White hot glistening shadowy flows)
    Feelings to grow (White hot glistening shadowy flows)
    White hot glistening shadowy flows
    White hot glistening shadowy flows
