Dench, Jagger & Cowell Tell Scotland 'Vote No'

Dame Judi Dench and Sir Mick Jagger are among more than 200 celebrities who have urged the people of Scotland to 'vote no'.

They are among more than 200 entertainment and public figures who have joined the Let's Stay Together campaign to maintain the union and stop Scotland trying to divorce itself from the UK.

Also on the list are the Saturday night television rivals Sir Bruce Forsyth and Simon Cowell, and Professor Stephen Hawking.

Simon Cowell and Sir Bruce Forsyth have put their names to the campaign

The campaign to urge people in Scotland not to vote for independence in the referendum on September 18 is being headed by television historians Dan Snow and Tom Holland.

Let's Stay Together was launched last month with an online video featuring broadcaster Ross Kemp and the actress Michelle Collins and was criticised for not having attracted higher profile personalities.

The celebrities have signed an open letter to the people of Scotland which says: "The decision on whether to leave our shared country is, of course, absolutely yours alone.

Sir Mick Jagger is also on board

"Nevertheless, that decision will have a huge effect on all of us in the rest of the UK.

"We want to let you know how very much we value our bonds of citizenship with you, and to express our hope that you will vote to renew them.

"What unites us is much greater than what divides us. Let's stay together."

There are 215 signatories in total, including Lord Sugar, who said: "It's for Scotland to decide how to vote but it has consequences for all of us.

"That's why so many of us have come together to say: let's stay together. We've achieved so much together and I know we can achieve so much more."

The letter will travel around the country in the coming week and members of the public will be urged to add their names to the list.

Snow said: "You've got Mick Jagger, Judi Dench, Steve Redgrave, Simon Cowell, David Walliams, Dame Vera Lynn, these people have found out about it and got in touch with us."

A spokesman for the Yes Scotland campaign said: "It's great to know that Scotland has so many friends and admirers, and we know they will all continue to be our friends and admirers after we vote Yes on September 18."
