Tour Scotland video of the Chariots Of Fire Charity race and fun run on the West Sands beach at St Andrews in Fife. The West Sands was used to portray Broadstairs in Kent, England, for one of the best known scenes in the film Chariots of Fire. The movie tells the story of runners Harold Abrahams, a Jew, and Edinburgh born Christian Eric Liddell and the 1924 Paris Olympics. As well as West Sands, St Andrews Golf Course's 18th hole was used for scenes said to be outside the Carlton Hotel in Broadstairs.
