Willie Rennie on his embarrassing admission and his love of Forrest Gump
- Published
Young voters have been quizzing Scotland's party leaders during a five-stop lift journey.
Second through the sliding doors was Willie Rennie of the Scottish Lib Dems. He spoke about running away from the police "as a wee boy" and how he would fight in a war "if they would have me".
Asking the questions were Sarah (18); Jamie-Lee (16); Louis (16); Erin (18) and Megan (18).
They are all members of the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳'s Generation 2016 election panel.

Mr Rennie, who has been both an MSP and an MP, was posed the question: Who would you like to be stuck in a lift with?
'The great actor Tom Hanks'
He replied: "I think, probably my wife, would be the first one, but if I'm allowed a second one, it would be Tom Hanks - the great actor.
"I love Forrest Gump, and I'm a softy for Turner and Hooch, which is a fantastic film, just a slob out film to watch, so Tom Hanks, my wife, and yourself [Generation 2016 questioner Megan]."
Other questions put to Mr Rennie included - have you ever been in trouble with the police; would you fight in a war; would you let a refugee live with you and is it fair that the minimum wage is lower for young people?
The Scottish Green Party's Patrick Harvie; Scottish Tory Ruth Davidson; Scottish Labour's Kezia Dugdale and the SNP's Nicola Sturgeon have also been part of the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳'s Leaders in a Lift series.
