JONATHAN BROCKLEBANK: Trapped in a web of misery thanks to the new Spider-Man blockbuster (and why I wish he'd swoop off)
The long arm of the law had the good grace to look embarrassed as it was extended to block my passage across the street and force me on a detour. 'I'm sorry, I know it's daft, but I can't let you past,' said the police officer. 'No, it's fine,' I said, feeling his pain. 'You're just doing your job.' It was, in fact, insanely daft. It wasn't remotely fine. On this day the policeman's job was to stop members of the public going about their business so that Spider-Man could go about his. There was no getting around it. Spider-Man had this city cop in his pocket. The constable didn't like it. Neither did I. In the centre of Glasgow, that's been the way of it for a fortnight – a comic book superhero not saving the day but commandeering it for profit. They're closing off whole streets for him, stopping people getting to their work for him, restricting parking for him, telling pedestrians where they may and may not walk for him … and Police Scotland, undermanned and overstretched, are among the many drafted in to do his bidding. On some days Peter Parker's alter ego has run amok. Great balls of fire have been seen yards from our office. There goes yon Spider-Man again: a law unto himself. For those perplexed by any of the above, let me confess that I share much of your confusion. Little of it makes any sense to me. But the apparent explanation for a fictional, arachnid-crazed crime fighter having dominion over a key area of my home city is they are making another Spider-Man movie. You may wonder, as I do, whether there might be enough movies out there already about a spandex-clad do-gooder who catches criminals by shooting webs at them. The answer seems to be no. The existing 10 are insufficient. You may also wonder what brings Spider-Man to Glasgow when everybody (who bothers about such matters) knows that his hood is New York. Well, he is wreaking chaos here in Glasgow because it is too expensive to put him in a movie in his native city. Think of the levels of inconvenience it would bring to the Big Apple having Spider-Man scaling buildings, swinging above the traffic, jumping onto speeding tanks … Understandably, the costs involved in gaining the city fathers' sanction for extreme disruption of this mature are prohibitive. So, what then? Is Spider-Man on holiday in Scotland in this movie? No, silly, Glasgow's role here is to kid on that it is New York, to put on a disguise as any stunt double might do and pretend. And the costs involved in gaining our city fathers' sanction to turn its busiest district into a movie set? Minimal. We're just charmed that they want to be here. Aren't we? You may be aware that Glasgow has quite the filmography to its name as understudy for cities which were unavailable for the role. It pretended to be Philadelphia for the 2013 movie World War Z in which marauding zombies swept across George Square. Fair enough. It was a decent movie. It has acting credits for playing Gotham City, the crime-ridden metropolis where Batman does his caped crusading. Gotham doesn't really exist, which makes Glasgow's participation more understandable. The Batgirl film shot here in 2022 was so dreadful it never saw the light of day, which makes it less so. The city has been asked to play New York so many times it should have a complex about typecasting. Credits include doubling as vintage New York for Indiana Jones and as futuristic New York for the forthcoming Ghostwriter. Nothing if not versatile, the Dear Green Place pretends to be London too. Several instalments of the Fast and Furious franchise have given our financial district the car chases, the crashes, bangs and wallops to avoid the hassle and expense of saddling the capital with them. Aren't we the lucky ones? In short, Glasgow is out the door with offers to play cities other than itself. Why? Because it is happy to work for peanuts. Because, like some naïve teen starlet in need of a hard-nosed agent, it will go to the most extraordinary lengths to accommodate the most unreasonable demands of the movie business. Run that by us again. You want us to jam up the city centre, shut down our busiest streets, re-route our buses, make it virtually impossible for emergency vehicles to get anywhere near emergencies, allow weeks of disruption to offices and shops, have our council tax and rate payers shunted out of the way by film set security types who suddenly think they own the place and see if the police will help out on crowd control? Shouldn't be a problem. Where do we sign? And all to save Hollywood the expense of shelling out for the real McCoy. I might weather the inconvenience more stoically if Glasgow were the actual setting of these movies rather than the bargain basement stand-in for the locations the production couldn't afford. It would trouble me less if I could tell myself we were suffering for someone's art. But an 11th Spider-Man movie? Fast and Furious 9? Let's us be frank. We are suffering for junk. It would, of course, be disingenuous to suggest the whole of the city centre feels the way I do. Much of it is awestruck. Behind every metal barrier stopping people getting where they need to be an army of rubberneckers demonstrate there is nowhere else they need to be. What could be more important than standing there for hours, phone cameras in hand, in the hope of bagging a grainy picture of actor Tom Holland in a Spider-Man suit? I've seen parents with infants dressed up as the superhero himself, which is cute, but I cannot imagine how the reality of a day on the edge of a film set – very little happening for too long from too far away to see it anyway – can match up to the magic they had in mind. There are, I am assured, clear economic benefits to the Glasgow City Council strategy of charging Hollywood next to nothing to stage invasions at regular interviews. Think of all the extra business for hotels, bars and shops the film crews bring. Think of the footfall resulting from those turning up to stare at them all day. There are claims Glasgow's niche role in masquerading as other cities in the movies has earned it £500 million in recent years. If true, someone is making a profit. But it isn't the council which, in common with every other one in Scotland, is pleading poverty. It isn't the businesses whose staff can't get to work because work is in this next shot. And it certainly isn't the majority of city centre users, displaced for an extended period by a comic book character. If Glasgow thinks it is going places in the movie business, shouldn't it drive a harder bargain? Must our gridiron streets and the Victorian treasures lining them work for buttons on every script that comes along, however moronic?

Scottish pupil named ‘Girl of the Year' for solar-powered blanket design
A Scottish schoolgirl has been named a 'Girl of the Year' by Time magazine after she invented a solar-powered thermal blanket to help rough sleepers keep warm. Rebecca Young, 13, came up with her design after seeing homeless people struggling in subzero temperatures on the streets of her home city, Glasgow, in winter. She said her message to young people was: 'If you see a problem you think you can fix, you can do something about it.' She joins nine other young women from across the world on the magazine's first list to spotlight girls' achievements. It builds on Time's existing 'Women of the Year' list with the express intention of recognising young female role models globally. Young's design – a solar-powered backpack with an electric blanket inside – won an engineering award in a UK-wide competition that received 70,000 entrants and Young has since developed it as a prototype. The engineering firm Thales, which sponsored the competition, subsequently manufactured 30 of the blankets and distributed them to six homeless charities in Glasgow earlier this year, with plans to make 120 more. Young, a student at Kelvinside academy, said: 'The idea came from seeing how hard it is for people living on the streets of Glasgow, especially during winter, and wanting to create something that could make a real difference. At first, it was just a drawing – I never imagined it would actually be made.' 'Knowing that something I came up with is helping others makes me feel really proud. By seeing themselves as builders, girls can challenge norms, pursue any passion and shape the world. It's easy to fall into thinking that building just means construction. It's so much more than that.' The list is launched in partnership with Lego Group, as an extension of their She Built That campaign, which challenges stereotypes and encourages girls to see themselves as builders. Other entrants on the list include Rutendo Shadaya, a 17-year-old Zimbabwean-New Zealander fantasy novelist, the Olympic skateboarder Coco Yoshizawa, 15, from Japan and an organ donation advocate, Naomi S DeBerry, 12, from the US. All 10 girls are re-imagined as Lego figures on the cover of the new edition. Launching the list, Time's senior editor, Dayana Sarkisova, said: 'These girls are part of a generation that's reshaping what leadership looks like today. Their generation understands that change doesn't require waiting for adulthood – it starts with seeing problems and refusing to accept them as permanent.' Young said: 'I think there's a really important message for any young person to look at what you're interested in and follow your dreams If you see a problem you think you can fix or contribute to, you can do something about it. And whatever you do, you should always follow your own path to what you want to achieve.'
