Welcome to Reporting Scotland. Tonight on your national news. The | :00:18. | :00:21. | |
UK's most expensive degree - what a second Scottish University is to | :00:21. | :00:27. | |
charge students from England, Wales and Northern Ireland. | :00:27. | :00:30. | |
Detectives release CCTV pictures of two people they hope can help them | :00:30. | :00:34. | |
solve the triple murder in Helensburgh. | :00:35. | :00:38. | |
The future's bright, the future is staying orange - Europe decides not | :00:38. | :00:43. | |
to change the amount of colouring in Scotland's other national drink. | :00:43. | :00:46. | |
And later in the programme, the excitement is building in New | :00:46. | :00:55. | |
Zealand. Who they're going to it hear about it, they are going to | :00:55. | :00:58. | |
know about it. And you can hear much much more | :00:58. | :01:01. | |
from him as Scotland makes final preparations for their first game | :01:01. | :01:05. | |
of the Rugby World Cup. St Andrews University has joined | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
Edinburgh in becoming the most expensive place in Britain to study. | :01:08. | :01:11. | |
The university court has decided to charge the maximum tuition fees of | :01:11. | :01:16. | |
�9,000 a year to students from England, Wales and Northern Ireland. | :01:16. | :01:26. | |
:01:26. | :01:33. | ||
It means an honours degree will cost �36,000. When more students | :01:33. | :01:42. | |
from England Wales and Northern Ireland will have to pay it a lot | :01:42. | :01:51. | |
more. There is a lot of change her head. They can only pay fees just | :01:51. | :02:00. | |
over �7,000, but some Andrew's will now charge �36,000 over four years. | :02:00. | :02:10. | |
:02:10. | :02:13. | ||
The figure drops to �21,000 to Glasgow Caledonian. It is not a | :02:13. | :02:17. | |
popular decision as an Andrew's. It is no more expensive to study here | :02:17. | :02:25. | |
than it did that Oxford or Cambridge. Rides in fees in England | :02:25. | :02:31. | |
caused a mass of protest there. is feared there could be problems | :02:31. | :02:40. | |
appear. It does not seem fair that I get it for free and people south | :02:40. | :02:50. | |
:02:50. | :02:51. | ||
of the border have to pay. As a Scottish should me I should be | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
happy that it remains charge less for us, but I do not think I would | :02:55. | :03:04. | |
feel the way if I was from England. The university says they are | :03:04. | :03:09. | |
offering a big rise in bursaries. The Scottish government is | :03:09. | :03:15. | |
monitoring these decisions. It is vital that when we debate this and | :03:15. | :03:25. | |
:03:25. | :03:26. | ||
that is a voted in the press, it has to be point out that I will | :03:26. | :03:33. | |
never charge Scottish students tuition fees. With most university | :03:33. | :03:40. | |
still to declare, it is expected the average fee will be about more | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
modest �6,000. Meanwhile, Scotland's newest | :03:43. | :03:46. | |
university, of the Highlands & Islands, is looking for more | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
funding. Its principal wants another �3m a year from the | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
Scottish government. James Fraser says the institution needs the cash | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
because of an increasing number of students and rising demand for | :03:55. | :04:00. | |
training in renewable energy. Police are hoping new CCTV footage | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
will help them find the killer of three members of one family. | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
Detectives say they are urgently trying to contact possible | :04:06. | :04:10. | |
witnesses to the crime. Thomas Sharkey and two of his children | :04:10. | :04:13. | |
were murdered when a fire was started at their Helensburgh home | :04:13. | :04:23. | |
:04:23. | :04:23. | ||
in July. Raymond is in Helensburgh for us tonight. Could these be the | :04:23. | :04:32. | |
pictures that could help catch the killer. Focus on the date first. It | :04:32. | :04:37. | |
is 24th July this year and just after five or clock in the morning. | :04:37. | :04:43. | |
Detectives want to trace the hooded figure crossing the road. They also | :04:43. | :04:48. | |
want to trace this man. He was also spotted in Heller's brat town | :04:48. | :04:53. | |
centre in the early morning of that day. Shortly afterwards, a fire was | :04:53. | :04:59. | |
started which killed three people. They also want to talk to the | :04:59. | :05:05. | |
owners of this car. Are you wanting to talk to these people as | :05:05. | :05:15. | |
:05:15. | :05:16. | ||
potential witnesses or suspects? want to interview them because they | :05:16. | :05:22. | |
were in the area at the time they it fire started and may help take | :05:22. | :05:27. | |
the investigation for were. Three members of the family were killed | :05:27. | :05:35. | |
when a fire broke out. The father Tom Sharkey and his two children. | :05:35. | :05:43. | |
His wife survived and she recently spoke of her anguish. If I knew any | :05:43. | :05:49. | |
sort of reason or motive I would say, because their three p Finlay's | :05:49. | :05:56. | |
I loved most in my life are now dead. The play some are asking the | :05:57. | :06:03. | |
public to take a close look and if you can help, please do. Raymond, | :06:03. | :06:06. | |
the police have been slowly revealing a number of details as | :06:06. | :06:09. | |
they have pieced together events. What does this tell us about the | :06:09. | :06:18. | |
investigation? It is now six weeks then someone came to this warm and | :06:19. | :06:24. | |
started this fire. The fire led to the deaths of three members of the | :06:24. | :06:31. | |
family and the injury of Mrs Shah K. Since then, there has been several | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
appeals by Strathclyde Police for information which could lead them | :06:35. | :06:39. | |
to the killer or killers of these three people. There has been | :06:39. | :06:45. | |
billboards, there has been talk of rewards and as you saw there, the | :06:45. | :06:52. | |
wife of Thomas Sharkey giving a very emotional interview. All of | :06:52. | :06:56. | |
that has not led to any sort of positive conclusion and led to this | :06:56. | :07:02. | |
latest release of information by the police. When you talk to | :07:02. | :07:06. | |
detectives involved in this that the answers lie here in the town. | :07:06. | :07:11. | |
They think someone here knows what happened in the early hours of that | :07:11. | :07:17. | |
Sunday morning. They are desperate for them to get in touch or if they | :07:17. | :07:19. | |
believe they might have information which could help find the killer or | :07:19. | :07:25. | |
killers to get in touch. As they say, they believe the answer to | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
this lies in the Helensbrugh. You are watching Friday's Reporting | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
Scotland from the BBC. Still to come before seven o'clock... Police | :07:33. | :07:36. | |
investigate a new lead in the baffling murder of a bank manager | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
at his family home. And on the Bru - find out why one of the "secrets" | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
in our national fizz has been under threat. | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
In sport, the very latest from Andy Murray. He is currently on court | :07:46. | :07:49. | |
against American John Isner, battling for a place in the US Open | :07:49. | :07:53. | |
semifinal. And the World Cup countdown for Scotland. Andy | :07:53. | :07:58. | |
Robinson's men meet Romania in a few hours from now. We are in New | :07:58. | :08:04. | |
Zealand with the squad. Join me for the sport, coming soon. | :08:04. | :08:08. | |
New local television stations could be coming to parts of Scotland. The | :08:08. | :08:11. | |
UK Government's proposals have been met with some scepticism about | :08:11. | :08:15. | |
whether the idea was commercially viable. But BBC Scotland has learnt | :08:15. | :08:19. | |
there are plans which could lead to stations in at least four areas. | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
Our business correspondent Jamie McIvor has been to see one of the | :08:22. | :08:32. | |
:08:32. | :08:36. | ||
likely bidders. Here I am standing on the corner of a very wet streets. | :08:36. | :08:41. | |
In this is the sort of news you make not here on it local | :08:41. | :08:47. | |
television. But it is gaining an evidence in the local community in | :08:47. | :08:53. | |
Helensbrugh. People are enjoying it. They are catching up and events | :08:53. | :08:59. | |
that the book would otherwise maybe not know about. But they us is not | :08:59. | :09:05. | |
a TV station as you would normally see it. It is a website, but maybe | :09:05. | :09:12. | |
pave the way for new local dit television stations. In that area, | :09:12. | :09:18. | |
it is perceiving the way people engage about politics, few local | :09:18. | :09:26. | |
sport and things like that. This is a station in Lanarkshire. To attend | :09:26. | :09:30. | |
their board failed financially, but the Government believes the sums | :09:30. | :09:38. | |
may add up now. Because of technological advances, the cost of | :09:38. | :09:45. | |
running a television station has now Lord to less than what be local | :09:45. | :09:55. | |
newspaper would cost. Nine a areas have been identified where local TV | :09:55. | :09:59. | |
stations may be viable. Apart from Helensbrugh, there is serious | :09:59. | :10:04. | |
interest in Ayrshire in Dundee. There is a concern that a the is in | :10:04. | :10:11. | |
the south could miss out. It is a pity. We have never been served | :10:11. | :10:15. | |
well by local television and this is a repeat of what we have always | :10:15. | :10:23. | |
experienced. The Scottish government has different proposals | :10:23. | :10:27. | |
for a television station covering the whole of Scotland. But for now, | :10:27. | :10:32. | |
there is a chance that places like Helensbrugh could have local | :10:32. | :10:36. | |
television in two years. Online services could be set up elsewhere | :10:36. | :10:41. | |
in the country. Some of the other stories across Scotland this Friday. | :10:41. | :10:43. | |
Two people have pleaded guilty to sex trafficking in the first | :10:43. | :10:46. | |
convictions in Scotland under new legislation. 22-year-old Sarah | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
Beukan and Stephen Craig, 34, admitted moving 14 men and women to | :10:49. | :10:55. | |
various addresses in across the UK for prostitution. Two other men, | :10:55. | :10:58. | |
Malcolm McNeil and Gordon Dryburgh, had their pleas of not guilty | :10:58. | :11:03. | |
accepted by the Crown. A 27-year-old man has been | :11:03. | :11:06. | |
convicted of murdering his former landlord. Robert Henderson is | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
thought to have strangled or suffocated 57-year-old Hugh Boyd at | :11:09. | :11:14. | |
his flat in the city's Yorkhill area in October 2009. Henderson | :11:14. | :11:17. | |
then hid the corpse, which was found in October 2010, before going | :11:17. | :11:23. | |
on a spending spree with Mr Boyd's bank card and Post Office account. | :11:23. | :11:26. | |
He faces a mandatory life sentence when he is sentenced later this | :11:26. | :11:30. | |
month. A boy as young as 13 is being | :11:30. | :11:33. | |
sought by police in Aberdeen after four women were indecently | :11:33. | :11:37. | |
assaulted in the street. The victims were said to have all been | :11:37. | :11:41. | |
left shaken by the assaults in the Mastrick area. The oldest was aged | :11:41. | :11:45. | |
70. Officers say the teenager had short brown hair and was carrying a | :11:45. | :11:51. | |
yellow bag. Highland police are investigating a | :11:51. | :11:54. | |
possible new lead in one of the most baffling murders in recent | :11:54. | :11:57. | |
criminal history. Bank manager Alistair Wilson was shot in the | :11:57. | :12:01. | |
steps of his family home in Nairn seven years ago. The killing | :12:01. | :12:04. | |
stunned the Moray Firth town and no-one has ever been arrested in | :12:04. | :12:14. | |
New information as police continue their search for the killer... | :12:14. | :12:18. | |
November twoup 4 and as he went to talk the a man who call at his | :12:19. | :12:22. | |
house bank work eAlistair Wilson was gunned down. Although the | :12:22. | :12:25. | |
murder weapon was later found in a drain near the crime scene, | :12:25. | :12:29. | |
detectives have been unable to track down the killer, or establish | :12:29. | :12:36. | |
etch a motive. Mr Wilson's widow was equally bewildered. I pray the | :12:36. | :12:41. | |
police find this man who did this to my family. To me this is still | :12:41. | :12:45. | |
very unreal, I see his picture, I hear every day he has been murdered, | :12:45. | :12:55. | |
but, it is still so unreal. National publicity and a �10,000 | :12:55. | :12:59. | |
reward still wasn't enough to generate that vital lead that would | :12:59. | :13:05. | |
unmask the murderer. The murder remains a mystery. Now a local | :13:05. | :13:09. | |
newspaper says a Dutch national has phoned them with details of a man | :13:09. | :13:12. | |
claiming to have known Alistair Wilson and the identity of the | :13:12. | :13:17. | |
gunman. The witness even maintained he had had to flee Scotland for his | :13:17. | :13:21. | |
own safety. The unnamed caller suggested there was a link between | :13:21. | :13:25. | |
Mr Wilson's murder and his job at the Bank of Scotland, though | :13:25. | :13:31. | |
intensive inquiries have discovered no such connection. Northern | :13:31. | :13:35. | |
Constabulary insisted despite the passing of the years all unsolved | :13:35. | :13:39. | |
cases remain livement whether this latest twist in the Wilson case | :13:39. | :13:48. | |
lead to a breakthrough or another dead end, only time will tell. Some | :13:48. | :13:53. | |
news for Irn-Bru fans, the makers of Scotland's popular fizzy drink | :13:53. | :13:57. | |
here were facing the prospect of having their recipe changed by | :13:57. | :14:00. | |
order of the European Commission. Officials are concerned at the use | :14:00. | :14:06. | |
of a food Coll rapt called sunset yellow which gives it its | :14:06. | :14:10. | |
distinctive hue. Our reporter has been toll Lowing this. What | :14:10. | :14:13. | |
happened in Brussels today? Sally, this is what it is about. | :14:13. | :14:19. | |
Generations of Scots will recognise this bottle of Irn-Bru but it is | :14:19. | :14:22. | |
what is inside that has been exercising the European Commission. | :14:22. | :14:27. | |
Irn-Bru has been I had from a special secret recipe since 1901 | :14:27. | :14:31. | |
and only three people in the whole world know what is in it. That was | :14:31. | :14:35. | |
threatened by commissioners in Brussels, and that is because of | :14:35. | :14:38. | |
tin collusion of that Coll rant sunset yellow. It is linked to | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
hyperactivety in children and it has been banned in countries like | :14:42. | :14:47. | |
Norway and Finland. At the moment manufacturers are allowed the use | :14:47. | :14:54. | |
50 million graps per litre. The Commission wanted o reduce this to | :14:54. | :14:58. | |
10 milligrams. But Irn-Bru uses 20. Today the Commission voted and they | :14:58. | :15:03. | |
came up with the number of 20 milligrams so Irn-Bru is safe for | :15:03. | :15:08. | |
now. But they had powerful supporters in this issue. The First | :15:08. | :15:11. | |
Minister Alex Salmond wrote to the Commission, as did the Food | :15:11. | :15:14. | |
Standards Agency. It does make you wonder whether we should be | :15:14. | :15:18. | |
drinking this sunset yellow? Food Standards Agency say that the | :15:18. | :15:22. | |
amount that is in Irn-Bru is perfectly safe, and for the past | :15:22. | :15:25. | |
year though, Barrs have put this disclaimer on bottles with the | :15:26. | :15:31. | |
advice of the Food Standards Agency, they say that sunset yellow and | :15:31. | :15:36. | |
other colour may have an adverse effect on activity and attention in | :15:36. | :15:40. | |
children. Barrs say despite this decision they will continue to take | :15:40. | :15:44. | |
the best add voice they can from the expects but relief tonight that | :15:44. | :15:52. | |
secret recipe is safe for now. Thank you. MPs have voted against a | :15:52. | :15:56. | |
Conservative backbench bill which sought an answer to the weth | :15:56. | :16:02. | |
Lothian question. The debate op whether Scottish, Welsh and | :16:02. | :16:10. | |
Northern Ireland MPs should be allowed to vote on English matters. | :16:10. | :16:16. | |
Tory MP for west Worcestershire pushed it to a vot but lost by 40 | :16:16. | :16:20. | |
to 4. The date has been set for prun ses street in Edinburgh to | :16:20. | :16:25. | |
close, againlet and it will stay shut for almost a year. Buses, | :16:25. | :16:28. | |
taxis and cyclists will be diverted to George street from 19th | :16:28. | :16:33. | |
September to allow work to resume on the tram project. All other | :16:33. | :16:38. | |
traffic will be rerouted along Queen Street. The council say no | :16:38. | :16:43. | |
work will take place during the withiner festivals. It is due to | :16:43. | :16:49. | |
finish in July 2001. Now the sport. Thank you. If you are a rugby fan | :16:49. | :16:53. | |
you maybe preparing to stay up all night. At 2.00 in the morning | :16:53. | :16:56. | |
Scotland kick off their World Cup campaign in New Zealand, with their | :16:56. | :17:00. | |
pool B opener againstroom that. It is a match that the Scots are | :17:00. | :17:07. | |
expected to win, Jim Mason sends this report. Scotland's players | :17:07. | :17:11. | |
limbering up for their first World Cup match. In the time for talking | :17:11. | :17:15. | |
is nearly over. 1.00 tomorrow is when we start, and I think the guys | :17:15. | :17:19. | |
are locking forward. They worked really hard. There is a great team | :17:19. | :17:24. | |
spirit and now it is about delivering performance. In is the | :17:24. | :17:28. | |
scene for Scotland's opening game in the Rugby World Cup 2011. The | :17:28. | :17:32. | |
opposition are Romania, and Andy Robinson's men are keen to go. | :17:32. | :17:36. | |
Everything we are been doing, from the gym to the running has been | :17:36. | :17:40. | |
focusing on this one point., So I think the start is Hulme, and I | :17:40. | :17:44. | |
think the guys will come out of the blocks firing. Away from the | :17:44. | :17:48. | |
stadium the fans too are in optimistic mood. Although this | :17:48. | :17:52. | |
fan's accuse season doesn't match the tartan. We are going to have a | :17:52. | :17:56. | |
piper so we can make a racket from one end to the other. They will | :17:56. | :18:00. | |
know about I under the shelter, their ears will be screaming. We | :18:00. | :18:05. | |
will whip them up in a fransy and get it on and be like a snowball. | :18:05. | :18:10. | |
Get bigger as we gather up fans. By the time we hit the park we will be | :18:10. | :18:15. | |
hoarse. We will struggle to cheer but we will find more, we will, | :18:15. | :18:20. | |
because go Scotland, you beauty! Well Romania, I would hope they | :18:20. | :18:25. | |
were going to win and beat Romania. I mean, I don't think it will be an | :18:25. | :18:29. | |
easy game. I don't think the Georgia game will be particularly | :18:29. | :18:34. | |
easy or for that matter the Argentina game. Frpl driving down | :18:34. | :18:38. | |
from Queens town., they have the flags up and everybody make a big | :18:38. | :18:43. | |
occasion of it. So the road begins for Andy Robinson and his men in a | :18:43. | :18:47. | |
quiet town in the south of New Zealand. It all kicks off in seven | :18:47. | :18:55. | |
hours. And if you want to have a good night's sleep join us on sport | :18:55. | :18:59. | |
nation tomorrow at nine. From New Zealand, to New York and Andy | :18:59. | :19:04. | |
Murray is chasing a place in the semifinals of the US Open. He is up | :19:04. | :19:07. | |
against the American John Isner and Murray has taken the first set 7-5. | :19:07. | :19:11. | |
The Scot is currently a break up in the second set, he leads by two | :19:11. | :19:18. | |
games to one. The Rangers manager Ally McCoist believes the club is | :19:18. | :19:22. | |
this better shape than prior to the change this ownership. He says the | :19:22. | :19:26. | |
fact the players are no longer for sale indicates the financial | :19:26. | :19:30. | |
situation has improve. The morning Rangers found themselves in court | :19:31. | :19:37. | |
over an unpaid lawyers' bill. It was claim there was concern over | :19:37. | :19:42. | |
the club's solvency. Ally McCoist takes his Rangers side to Tannadice | :19:42. | :19:46. | |
this weekend. Keen to see them preserve their status as league | :19:46. | :19:51. | |
leaders. But while things are going fine on the park, off field issues | :19:51. | :19:56. | |
persis. Rangers were in court today to confirm they paid a bill of | :19:56. | :20:02. | |
�35,000, due to the law firm. During the hearing Jonathan Brown | :20:02. | :20:07. | |
claimed there is a real concern about solvency. The Rangers manager | :20:07. | :20:11. | |
admits he is not party o the financial ins and outs but he | :20:11. | :20:15. | |
believes there are signs of improvement. How they managed to do | :20:15. | :20:20. | |
it, sometimes beggars belief but the player last year, where the | :20:20. | :20:24. | |
whole squad was up for transfer. They showed an unbelievabledownty | :20:24. | :20:29. | |
and spirit, you know, there is nobody telling us that you know the | :20:29. | :20:37. | |
staff are up for sale. So it has to be in a better place. Their | :20:37. | :20:40. | |
attention during the transfer window in the face of multi-million | :20:40. | :20:44. | |
pound interest would seem bear that out. I don't have that decision. | :20:44. | :20:50. | |
That decision, you know, is not mine to make. I just, I am very | :20:50. | :20:54. | |
thankful to the man who made the decision. But obviously, we are no | :20:54. | :20:58. | |
different from the vast majority of clubs, that when offers come in you | :20:58. | :21:02. | |
have to listen to them. At the moment though, he is still trying | :21:02. | :21:08. | |
to add to his squad with the Argentine mild feeder on trial for | :21:08. | :21:13. | |
the next week. Celtic will continue with their preparations as normal | :21:13. | :21:21. | |

appeal heard to be reinstated into the competition We are preparing as | :21:34. | :21:41. | |
if we are in the tournament. Again, I am not disappointed, I can | :21:41. | :21:45. | |

Britain and Ireland. Wet and windy weather promises to be in | :22:31. | :22:35. | |

cape Katrina is doing to come across. She will bring strong winds. | :23:19. | :23:28. | |

remnants of Hurricane Katrina we will have a low pressure system. | :23:32. | :23:37. | |
There will be some rain and showers as well, but in between sunny | :23:37. | :23:42. | |
spells it is not doom and gloom. Campbeltown saw the highest | :23:42. | :23:46. | |

the low across the southern half of country. A bit cooler further north | :23:59. | :24:03. | |
but still into double figures. Very respectable. So to start the | :24:03. | :24:08. | |
weekend it is not a nice picture, a lot of rain round but like today, | :24:08. | :24:10. | |
an improving picture as we bo through the curse of the afternoon. | :24:10. | :24:13. | |

see the best temperatures. Up to the low 20s. More rain' cross the | :24:19. | :24:22. | |
west, so temperatures round 17 or 18, but again with shelter across | :24:22. | :24:27. | |
the North East, Moray may see 21 or 22. It is not looking too bad. So | :24:27. | :24:30. | |
the you are heading out to the Rangers the best of the weather | :24:30. | :24:35. | |

summits. As you go to the west. Still windy with wind speeds round | :24:50. | :24:53. | |
75mphment that is winds guing to that. If you take a small boat out | :24:53. | :24:58. | |
to the south-west, it will be fairly copy,s for force five to six. | :24:58. | :25:05. | |
The visibility will be good though the winds will be stronger. Across | :25:05. | :25:10. | |

the winds then, on Saturday, you can see southerly winds in western | :25:19. | :25:25. | |
areas. A bit lighter, but still strong in eastern areas. Here is | :25:25. | :25:29. | |
the all-important pressure chart. You can see this deep area of low | :25:29. | :25:32. | |
pressure. This is the recommend nands of the hurricane which is | :25:32. | :25:36. | |
going to roach our shores for Monday. Before then, this is the | :25:36. | :25:42. | |
low pressure that has brought unsettled weather on Saturday. So | :25:42. | :25:46. | |
this is the picture for Sunday. Most of the rain out to the west, | :25:46. | :25:49. | |
with gale force wnds for the Western Isles. The further east | :25:49. | :25:53. | |

direction. Probably in time for the morning commute into work on Monday, | :26:10. | :26:18. | |
so the Met Office have inissued an amber alert. So the picture for | :26:19. | :26:22. | |
