Lady Dorrian launches her latest line of jigsaws today, cashing in on an unpreecedented popularity of jigsaws.
“Everyone loves a good jigsaw,” Lady Dorrian said in our interview. “It is so good to see them making a comeback.”
One of Scotland’s most senior judges, Lady Dorrian gained notoriety following her jailing of Craig Murray, former British ambassador to Uzbekistan for media contempt of court during the trial of Alex Salmond – now leader of the newly formed Alba Party. Craig Murray is the first and only person to be imprisoned for jigsaw identification in over 70 years according to an Early Day Motion presented to the UK Parliament. Lady Dorrian was criticized at the time for refusing to consider a more lenient sentence.
Reviews of Lady Dorrian’s jigsaw range are in the four and five star range on Amazon with some comments indicating they are among the hardest jigsaws to piece together. This may be because each completed jigsaw is a single block of colour ensuring that no-one can be identified.
The team at The Notional do wonder why it was that despite Mr Salmond being innocent until proven guilty, and subsequently found not guilty, Lady Dorrian did allow him to be identified. Perhaps we’ll never know.
