Glasgow University student Jack Savage will hopefully be stirred but not shaken by his experiences on a new travelling scholarship commemorating an adventurer said to be the model for James Bond.

Sir Fitzroy Maclean was a diplomat, soldier, politician and historian whose career in the Balkans is supposed to have inspired the creation of Ian Fleming's super spy.

The annual ?2,500 scholarships aim to fund travel "in keeping with Fitzroy Maclean's spirit of adventure". Mr Savage will travel to Chile to retrace the steps of singer and writer Violeta Parra.
