HOLLYWOOD A-listers Colin Firth and Nicole Kidman have posed for pictures with fans while filming in North Berwick.

The stars were in the East Lothian town to shoot scenes for their The Railway Man, based on Eric Lomax’s book about his experiences during the Second World War, when he was a Japanese prisoner of war, and his reconciliation with one of his captors afterwards. .

Scenes were shot in a house in Tantallon Terrace and on the nearby beach yesterday.

Sylvia Beaumont, who was among those star-spotting, photographed Kidman and Firth chatting with local children.

She said: “I was down walking my dogs and just stopped because I’ve always got my little camera in my pocket. I spoke to both of them and asked if I could take their pictures. They both said: ‘Of course’.
