Convergence. When an economist tells you something that is based on a theory or a model, you should be very skeptical. This was the year we were supposed to get hoverboards and flying cars. Instead we got more robots that fall over. Even though they were all over the news, television, and cinema screens this year, robots have not really entered the mainstream yet.

They may build our cars and clean some of our floors, but for the most part, robots remain tucked away in research facilities and space operas.

Adrian is a hulking, fearsome looking man who wouldn't look out of place in the Scotland rugby squad's front row (except he has a full set of teeth). Bill is a newspaper veteran who retired earlier this year. Now the pair have turned up unexpectedly as the poster boys for the Edinburgh Book Festival, on its "Press Office " page . It's quite fitting really. The website for the event features a photograph of the pair on a newspaper assignment from a number of years ago.
