Brown meets triple gold hero Hoy
 Mr Brown congratulated fellow Scot and triple gold medallist Chris Hoy |
Gordon Brown has met triple gold medallist Chris Hoy at a reception in China hosted by their old university.
Both the PM and Hoy, Scotland's most successful Olympian, were students at Edinburgh, which put on a reception at the British Embassy in Beijing.
They had tea with Principal Professor Sir Timothy O'Shea and ambassador William Ehrman.
Sir Timothy said Hoy, who graduated in Applied Sport Science in 1999, was a "great ambassador for the university".
Mr Brown, who went to Edinburgh University when he was just 16, graduated with a first class honours MA aged 19 and became rector of the university in 1972.
