Welcome to Reporting Scotland. Tonight on your national news | :00:12. | :00:17. | |
programme. A family look for answers. Care home resident Betty | :00:17. | :00:20. | |
McGaw died just weeks after she had to have her denture surgically | :00:20. | :00:30. | |
:00:30. | :00:36. | ||
removed. It was covered in green slime and fungus. It must have been | :00:36. | :00:41. | |
so awful and she must have been in agony. As an inquiry opens into the | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
old lady's death, campaigners say carers must be aware of the | :00:44. | :00:47. | |
importance of oral hygiene for old people. Also tonight: Two children | :00:47. | :00:50. | |
from the same family remain in hospital having contracted botulism | :00:50. | :00:51. | |
after eating this brand of curry sauce. | :00:51. | :00:53. | |

achievement award for Robbie Coltrane at BAFTA Scotland for his | :01:11. | :01:15. | |
outstanding contribution to film and TV. | :01:15. | :01:18. | |
A woman has told a fatal accident inquiry how her elderly mother's | :01:18. | :01:21. | |
false teeth were found covered in green slime and fungus and were so | :01:21. | :01:25. | |
badly embedded in her mouth they had to be removed in hospital. 87 | :01:25. | :01:30. | |
year old Betty McGaw died eight weeks later. She had been a | :01:30. | :01:34. | |
resident in a care home in Glasgow, which at the time was run by | :01:34. | :01:41. | |
Southern Cross. Aileen Clarke's report contains some graphic images. | :01:41. | :01:47. | |
Betty McGaw was a happy lady who left her family. She developed | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
dementia and although the family cared for her themselves at first, | :01:50. | :01:55. | |
it was thought best they should go into this care home. In December | :01:55. | :02:00. | |
the following year, the family noticed she was starting to go | :02:00. | :02:05. | |
downhill and her teeth were badly discoloured. Her teeth were blue | :02:05. | :02:10. | |
and I said something to the carers about it. They said it was the | :02:10. | :02:15. | |
tablets she was on. I told them that she was on these tablets at | :02:15. | :02:19. | |
home and her teeth were not that colour. Her condition deteriorated | :02:19. | :02:24. | |
over Christmas and she was taken into hospital where doctors removed | :02:24. | :02:29. | |
her top denture which was impacted in her gum. It was in a dreadful | :02:29. | :02:34. | |
state. He said he had never seen anything like it. It was covered in | :02:34. | :02:39. | |
green slime and fungus. It must have been vile and she must have | :02:40. | :02:47. | |
been in agony. The first thing the staff did was throat beach on them. | :02:47. | :02:52. | |
Derek McGaw told the inquiry how after she died, his mother seemed | :02:52. | :02:57. | |
to be terrified of anything or anyone touching her mouth. A after | :02:57. | :03:02. | |
visiting her in hospital, she would recoil from us with terror on her | :03:02. | :03:08. | |
face which was awful to see. can only manage -- imagine what she | :03:08. | :03:15. | |
had experienced and been through to get that way. The Procurator Fiscal | :03:15. | :03:18. | |
said to them that it might be suggested that their mother had | :03:18. | :03:23. | |
died because of her dementia and not because of oral hygiene issues. | :03:23. | :03:28. | |
Mrs Miller said absolutely not, mother wasn't eating or drinking | :03:28. | :03:36. | |
because the state her mouth was in. She had been robust and strong | :03:36. | :03:41. | |
before this. They hope this inquiry will result in better dental care | :03:41. | :03:47. | |
in nursing homes. Older people should have an appropriate care | :03:47. | :03:53. | |
plan in place. It should include things like oral hygiene. | :03:53. | :03:56. | |
inquiry continues tomorrow. The emergency services are dealing with | :03:56. | :03:59. | |
a leak of drainage water from an oil handling facility on the Firth | :03:59. | :04:04. | |
of Forth in the South Queensferry area. The leak is in a pipe from | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
BP's Hound Point Terminal. The company says the substance is | :04:07. | :04:12. | |
primarily sea water and there is no danger of an oil leak. Our reporter | :04:12. | :04:22. | |
:04:22. | :04:24. | ||
Lisa Summers is there for us. Lisa, The first thing I noticed when I | :04:24. | :04:29. | |
arrived was this power for a sulphur smell in the air. That is | :04:29. | :04:39. | |
before we arrived just east of the rail bridge. They have vehicles on | :04:39. | :04:47. | |
site. Fish from the Scottish Environment -- people are meeting | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
with the emergency services to decide what to do next. They have | :04:51. | :04:56. | |
identified by the leak is but it is a question of how to stop it and to | :04:56. | :05:02. | |
work out what environmental impact it might have. | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
And no details are sketchy. Is there any risk to people or the | :05:06. | :05:11. | |
environment? It is too early to say what the | :05:11. | :05:17. | |
outcome of this might be. They have assured us that it isn't an oil | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
leak and it is likely to be it drainage that is used in the | :05:22. | :05:31. | |
:05:32. | :05:35. | ||
balancing of tankers when the... It is not going to be dangerous to | :05:35. | :05:42. | |
public health but there has to be further information given. Two | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
children from the same family remain in hospital after becoming | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
ill with botulism caused by food poisoning. Doctors say the pair are | :05:48. | :05:51. | |
in a stable condition. They're thought to have become infected | :05:51. | :05:58. | |
after eating a Lloyd Grossman curry sauce. | :05:58. | :06:03. | |
The two people with botulism came from the Forth Valley area. They | :06:03. | :06:07. | |
are being treated at a hospital somewhere in Scotland and are | :06:08. | :06:14. | |
stable and improving but face a long recovery. Botulism is a nasty | :06:14. | :06:19. | |
form of food poisoning and very rare in this country. Probably only | :06:19. | :06:25. | |
30 or so cases in the last 30 years. This is where the infection came | :06:25. | :06:31. | |
from. The batch from which it came has been identified and only the | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
jar consumed by the pair who contracted the illness was found to | :06:35. | :06:41. | |
contain botulism. Once the botulism enters the body, it gets into the | :06:41. | :06:46. | |
bloodstream -- bloodstream. It contains muscle movement and | :06:46. | :06:51. | |
creates symptoms like blurred vision come difficulty swallowing | :06:51. | :06:58. | |
and breathing problems. It can be fatal if untreated. It produces | :06:58. | :07:02. | |
paralysis so the early symptoms of blurred vision and double vision, | :07:02. | :07:11. | |
difficulty swallowing and talking. If caught early, the NT toxins are | :07:11. | :07:17. | |
an effective treatment. If not treated, those symptoms go to | :07:17. | :07:21. | |
paralysis of the limbs and if left untreated, death. The Food | :07:21. | :07:30. | |
Standards Agency is asking public to be aware of certain batches. | :07:30. | :07:33. | |
They are warning the public that if they find one, it should not be | :07:33. | :07:38. | |
eaten. You're watching Reporting Scotland | :07:38. | :07:44. | |
from the BBC. Still to come before seven - why the number of foreign | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
language students in our schools has fallen in recent years. And how | :07:47. | :07:51. | |
a lonesome eel was given a helping hand in his quest to find love. In | :07:51. | :07:53. | |
Sport, the first Englishman to be inducted into Scottish Football | :07:53. | :07:57. | |
Hall of Fame reveals to us why he's chosen to spend 20 of the last 25 | :07:57. | :08:01. | |
years in this country. And, mixing it with big boys - both Edinburgh | :08:01. | :08:07. | |
and Glasgow get their European Celtic are seeking clarification | :08:07. | :08:09. | |
from UEFA and Strathclyde Police following an investigation into | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
what's been described as "illicit chanting" by its fans at a recent | :08:12. | :08:18. | |
European match. The Parkhead club could face a heavy fine and a fan | :08:18. | :08:28. | |
:08:28. | :08:31. | ||
ban when European football's It was a night of celebration for | :08:31. | :08:38. | |
Celtic beating the French side 3-1. They improved their chances of | :08:38. | :08:44. | |
progression in the competition. It may have been bittersweet. Police | :08:44. | :08:48. | |
reported offensive singing and Celtic could be in trouble. On the | :08:48. | :08:53. | |
8th of next month, the couple answer to UEFA's control. Tonight | :08:53. | :09:03. | |
:09:03. | :09:10. | ||
What the statement doesn't say was those at the club are seeking | :09:10. | :09:15. | |
clarification from Uefa and from the police about these specifics. | :09:15. | :09:22. | |
It could be very damaging and embarrassing for a club that prides | :09:22. | :09:27. | |
itself on the behaviour of its fans. Is there a growing problem with | :09:27. | :09:32. | |
chants and Parkhead? They have a point. They are looking into it at | :09:32. | :09:39. | |
the moment. There is no problem with Celtic Park was so whether. | :09:39. | :09:44. | |
Celtic have people who will shout and say it offensive things about | :09:44. | :09:51. | |
various topics. It happens at every ground. It is not time the first -- | :09:51. | :09:55. | |
is not the first time the club has been called to touch. Rangers have | :09:56. | :10:02. | |
had fans banned from travelling. Now it is Celtic's turn to face the | :10:02. | :10:08. | |
music. I think be chanting at Parkhead has been greatly | :10:08. | :10:14. | |
exaggerated in some parts. It is there, there is a core of fans that | :10:14. | :10:20. | |
sing it and until they sort it out, they will always have this problem. | :10:20. | :10:29. | |
They have a heavy fan and they could also damage their reputation. | :10:29. | :10:33. | |
A new driver who drove the wrong way down a dual carriageway has | :10:33. | :10:35. | |
been banned for driving for two years. Shazida Begum had only | :10:35. | :10:38. | |
passed her test two weeks before she was caught on camera driving | :10:38. | :10:42. | |
the wrong way down an exit slip road on the A90 Aberdeen to | :10:42. | :10:46. | |
Stonhaven road last March. The 21- year-old admitted dangerous driving | :10:46. | :10:51. | |
and was also fined �700. Actor Robbie Coltrane has been | :10:51. | :10:53. | |
honoured for his outstanding contribution to film at the BAFTA | :10:53. | :10:57. | |
Scotland awards. The Harry Potter and Cracker star was one of a | :10:57. | :10:59. | |
number of celebrity guests in Glasgow for last night's ceremony | :10:59. | :11:03. | |
which hasn't been staged for two years. Peter Mullen won two awards | :11:03. | :11:06. | |
for his film, Neds, while the BBC TV programmes Limmy's Show and the | :11:06. | :11:16. | |
:11:16. | :11:21. | ||
It has been two years since the Scottish Bafta has were staged. For | :11:21. | :11:27. | |
most on the red carpet, the ceremony's return is welcome. | :11:27. | :11:33. | |
important to get everyone together in the industry. It gets people | :11:33. | :11:43. | |
:11:43. | :11:45. | ||
talking and gets people meeting again. It is good to be here. | :11:46. | :11:54. | |
was a common theme of grim and gritty reality. Amongst the first | :11:54. | :12:00. | |
was this. We took a beating from elephants -- elements of the press | :12:00. | :12:04. | |
and this means so much because it validates everything that we | :12:04. | :12:11. | |
thought we were trying to make. entertainment category flagged up | :12:11. | :12:14. | |
the narrow pool of entries. All three were made by the same | :12:14. | :12:21. | |
protection company for the BBC. For the winner, it is an important | :12:21. | :12:31. | |
:12:31. | :12:37. | ||
accolade. It is magic. It has been at magic. Best actor went to James | :12:37. | :12:43. | |
Cosmo. For Robbie Coltrane, there was a special award for his | :12:43. | :12:48. | |
outstanding contribution to film. It is his children he says that | :12:48. | :12:57. | |
deserved the praise. My children have had to put up with the lot of | :12:57. | :13:02. | |
nonsense for having a famous dad. Neither of them have said why don't | :13:02. | :13:09. | |
I get a proper job. I take this on behalf of them. Thank you very much. | :13:09. | :13:12. | |
Some of the other stories across Scotland this Monday: Police have | :13:12. | :13:16. | |
released the name of the three year old boy who died after being swept | :13:16. | :13:19. | |
into the sea from Kirkcaldy's Esplananade at the weekend. Eryk | :13:20. | :13:29. | |
:13:30. | :13:30. | ||
Cieraszewski died on Saturday evening in hospital in Kirkcaldy. | :13:30. | :13:33. | |
Rangers have agreed an out of court settlement with a pension advice | :13:33. | :13:36. | |
firm, who'd been suing them for unpaid fees. Capita Trustees had | :13:36. | :13:39. | |
raised an action at Glasgow Sheriff Court, for what they called a | :13:39. | :13:42. | |
straightforward commercial debt. The sum sued for is unknown and | :13:42. | :13:50. | |
because of the way the case has ended, it may never emerge. | :13:50. | :13:59. | |
The competition to transform some gardens has been shortlisted. | :13:59. | :14:09. | |
:14:09. | :14:14. | ||
At one end of Union Terrace Gardens, the splendour of Majesty's Theatre | :14:14. | :14:18. | |
and William Wallace stands guard over the sunken Victorian gardens | :14:18. | :14:23. | |
which have become such a big issue in this city. The plan to raise the | :14:23. | :14:27. | |
gardens to street level and cover over the dual-carriageway. Six | :14:27. | :14:32. | |
designs have been put on public display this month and the one you | :14:32. | :14:36. | |
can see at the moment on your screen was voted the most popular | :14:36. | :14:40. | |
by the 15,000 or so people who went through the exhibition. It is one | :14:40. | :14:47. | |
or two on the -- one of two on the shortlist and people want more | :14:47. | :14:50. | |
information on the cost of the designs. The final decision will be | :14:50. | :14:55. | |
next month. A referendum could still be held on | :14:55. | :14:58. | |
whether the project should go ahead at all? | :14:58. | :15:04. | |
That is right. It is not popular with everyone. There is quite | :15:04. | :15:05. | |
significant opposition so the Scottish Government raised the | :15:06. | :15:13. | |
stakes a couple of weeks ago buys - - saying funding would only be | :15:13. | :15:18. | |
given if there was a demonstration of public support. A referendum has | :15:18. | :15:25. | |
been mooted by SNP councillors. It will be interesting ones they pick | :15:25. | :15:29. | |
a winning design how exactly they will show the public support if | :15:29. | :15:37. | |
this project is to go ahead. There has been an 80% drop in the | :15:37. | :15:39. | |
number of foreign language assistants in Scottish schools over | :15:39. | :15:44. | |
the last six years. There are now just 59. The assistants are usually | :15:44. | :15:49. | |
native speakers from Spain, Germany and France to help pupils learn | :15:49. | :15:53. | |
their language. The authorities say the assistants are extras schools | :15:53. | :16:02. | |
can no longer afford. Teaching the conversation and | :16:02. | :16:06. | |
culture of another country. Sometimes through cooking, often | :16:06. | :16:12. | |
pretty lively. Language assistants, a native speakers have, help | :16:12. | :16:18. | |
children learn words that are up- to-date and sound right. Words like | :16:18. | :16:28. | |
:16:28. | :16:36. | ||
pancakes. Care. I used to pronounce it creep. -- crepe. Arts teachers | :16:36. | :16:42. | |
do not always know everything. -- our teachers. And may help some | :16:42. | :16:48. | |
realise language is not just in a textbook. In primary schools, | :16:48. | :16:55. | |
pupils asked me, you are really French? And I reply, yes, I am! And | :16:55. | :17:00. | |
sometimes they are surprised. It is as if they do not know that there | :17:00. | :17:07. | |
is another country. But the number of assistance is in decline. In | :17:07. | :17:16. | |
2006, 284 assistants. Now 59. Down 80%. The part-timers on some �8,000 | :17:16. | :17:21. | |
a year will help fully-trained teachers -- who help trained | :17:21. | :17:27. | |
teachers was seen as an extra schools can do without. Took the | :17:27. | :17:34. | |
week Government body that organises placements, it seems false economy. | :17:34. | :17:38. | |
There is the risk we will miss out on business and contracts if we do | :17:38. | :17:42. | |
not have the language and awareness to be able to engage with people in | :17:42. | :17:46. | |
other countries. Learning the languages of the world, that is | :17:46. | :17:51. | |
crucial, so local authorities. But they also say by law they have to | :17:51. | :17:59. | |
balance their books. In tough times, something has got to give. | :17:59. | :18:04. | |
All your sports news now. Scottish football have in did to | :18:04. | :18:09. | |
five new names into their hall of fame. Lisbon Lion by Simpson, | :18:09. | :18:12. | |
Manchester United legend Pat Crerand, footballer and | :18:12. | :18:17. | |
confectioner RS McCall and sports Dunion it -- sports journalist Hugh | :18:18. | :18:22. | |
Michael Viney, and for the first time ever, an Englishman. | :18:22. | :18:27. | |
It is the first time I have been here without getting banned, joked | :18:27. | :18:33. | |
the former England captain this morning. Terry Butcher was inducted | :18:33. | :18:38. | |
into the Scottish Football Hall of fame. When you look at some of the | :18:38. | :18:42. | |
people that were out front, Alex Ferguson for a start, European Cup | :18:42. | :18:46. | |
winners with Celtic and some great Rangers players as well, it is just | :18:46. | :18:50. | |
a marvellous feeling to be standing up there. To be the first | :18:50. | :18:56. | |
Englishman as well as a massive honour. Richard came to Ibrox in | :18:56. | :19:01. | |
1986, the third English import. But his introduction to Scottish | :19:01. | :19:06. | |
football was anything but quiet. When I first came, it was | :19:06. | :19:14. | |
unbelievable. I was suspended by September. Bookings in every Games. | :19:14. | :19:18. | |
I do not think we really realised what it was all about until after | :19:18. | :19:23. | |
we played the first round of games. The manager of Inverness Caledonian | :19:23. | :19:29. | |
Thistle now, Butcher has spent 20 of the last 25 years in Scotland. | :19:29. | :19:33. | |
You can debate whether or not an Englishman should be in Scotland's | :19:33. | :19:38. | |
call a friend, but it cannot be denied that Butcher's contribution | :19:38. | :19:42. | |
to the game in this country has been a colourful one. I have left | :19:42. | :19:47. | |
my mark on Scottish football. Put it that way. One was one of the | :19:47. | :19:53. | |
features on the Aberdeen stadium tour as well. And I have broken my | :19:53. | :19:57. | |
leg, scored own-goals, that a criminal record, but apart from | :19:57. | :20:02. | |
that it has been fantastic! Former Aberdeen player Sone Aluko | :20:02. | :20:06. | |
has begun a trial with Rangers. He left Pittodrie in the summer, | :20:06. | :20:09. | |
stating a desire to live near his family in the Midlands but has been | :20:09. | :20:13. | |
without a club ever since. The Champions League of rugby, | :20:13. | :20:16. | |
Heineken Cup, got under way at the weekend. Scottish teams have | :20:16. | :20:20. | |
struggled in the past but there were signs that Glasgow and | :20:20. | :20:28. | |
Edinburgh can mix with the big boys. Sometimes rugby can be decided by | :20:28. | :20:36. | |
the bounce of the ball. And so it was yesterday as Glasgow beat | :20:36. | :20:41. | |
English side Bath. On Saturday, it was Edinburgh's turn, as they beat | :20:41. | :20:46. | |
London Irish by a point. The Heineken Cup is tough. Both | :20:46. | :20:52. | |
Scottish sides have got off to the perfect start. We were battered for | :20:52. | :20:58. | |
absolutely everything. We gave them too much ball, I do not think there | :20:58. | :21:02. | |
is any doubt about that. They had far more ball than we did in the | :21:02. | :21:06. | |
first of so we had to scramble. Edinburgh won there matched by a | :21:06. | :21:11. | |
single point but victory beats confidence. The capital's side are | :21:11. | :21:15. | |
on the up. All of the games were more or less really tight, bar one | :21:15. | :21:23. | |
or two. Your defence has to be spot on to win games. So from that side, | :21:23. | :21:29. | |
it was very pleasing for us. crowd at Glasgow yesterday played | :21:29. | :21:36. | |
their part. Edinburgh on Friday night could be the catalyst to a | :21:36. | :21:39. | |
winner over the French side. Hopefully I'll win last week will | :21:39. | :21:44. | |
get a few more fans and people to come to support us because that is | :21:45. | :21:50. | |
essentially how you do get in the grounds. So hopefully with that we | :21:50. | :21:55. | |
can swell the numbers this week and hopefully that will help us get | :21:55. | :22:00. | |
another win. Scotland had a disappointing would be World Cup. | :22:00. | :22:03. | |
European wins like these could help banish the blues. | :22:03. | :22:09. | |
News just in, Scotland and 20 ones are in action against Holland and | :22:09. | :22:19. | |
they are 2-1 ahead. -- Under-21s. Well done. We admitted from our | :22:19. | :22:22. | |
report their you receive your own back after last night. | :22:22. | :22:30. | |
Well, not my own BAFTA! But the one for a programme made by the BBC in | :22:30. | :22:35. | |
the summer. It was fantastic and to do. Seven-and-a-half Gallas of life | :22:35. | :22:39. | |
climbing. And you have managed to give them a | :22:39. | :22:45. | |
plug as well! How far would you be prepared to | :22:45. | :22:49. | |
travel in search of love? 86 ft conger eel has been released into | :22:49. | :22:58. | |
the sea to begin the 2000 mile trip to find a mate. The eel, named Rip, | :22:58. | :23:04. | |
needed a little gentle persuasion. This is Rip. For the past seven | :23:04. | :23:12. | |
years, this tank at my death aquarium has been his home. Rip has | :23:12. | :23:15. | |
outgrown his home and is now ready to swim several thousand miles to | :23:15. | :23:21. | |
find a mate. Brit -- Rip faces a long journey, | :23:21. | :23:26. | |
north and then west before swimming size to find love and spawn in the | :23:26. | :23:31. | |
waters of the Azores, a drop of 2000 miles. He has a long journey | :23:31. | :23:36. | |
ahead of him but he is in a good condition. He's a very strong | :23:36. | :23:40. | |
animal and we're very hopeful he will make it to the Azores. Are you | :23:40. | :23:48. | |
fond of them -- him? Very fond of him! Rip's adventure began with | :23:48. | :23:52. | |
divers carefully taking him out of his tank into a large bag. A crane | :23:52. | :23:55. | |
and then dropped him into the waters of the Moray Firth. But he | :23:55. | :24:01. | |
was reluctant to leave. Local people gathered to watch. The | :24:01. | :24:08. | |
minutes ticked by a but eventually, his head appeared. There he is! | :24:08. | :24:14. | |
few moments later, he was free and heading for the ocean the. -- deep. | :24:15. | :24:19. | |
If he makes it, he will breed in the Atlantic, but conger eels died | :24:19. | :24:28. | |
after spawning so sadly, he will soon rest in peace. | :24:28. | :24:34. | |
They had to ruin it at the end! The time of the evening when we | :24:34. | :24:44. | |
:24:44. | :24:44. | ||
It has been very settled for the time of year, static and stationery. | :24:44. | :24:49. | |
This area of high pressure over Scandinavia is the reason it is | :24:49. | :24:52. | |
influencing art weather in the British Isles. It is acting as a | :24:52. | :24:55. | |
buffer to the rain Bering weather fronts in the North Atlantic that | :24:55. | :25:01. | |
we normally see at this time of year. Cloudy, the odd spot of rain | :25:01. | :25:06. | |
towards eastern coastal areas. Clear skies especially across the | :25:06. | :25:12. | |
North West. Temperatures down to two or three Celsius. They touch of | :25:12. | :25:16. | |
frost. Mist and fog patches particularly around the Inverness | :25:16. | :25:23. | |
area. South-easterly wind but always that bit fresher it was the | :25:23. | :25:29. | |
South East corner, up towards the Outer Hebrides. Parts of the North | :25:29. | :25:33. | |
West tomorrow will be bright but goal from the word go. A closer | :25:33. | :25:38. | |
look at what is happening tomorrow afternoon. The South West corner | :25:38. | :25:43. | |
will tend to brighten up, with cloud breaking. Brightening up | :25:43. | :25:49. | |
around the Glasgow area. The best of the sunshine in the north-west. | :25:49. | :25:54. | |
Across the Western Isles, it should brighten up as well. Towards the | :25:54. | :26:01. | |
north-east, the area should stay cloudy. Sunshine breaking took four | :26:01. | :26:11. | |
:26:11. | :26:11. | ||
places like Moray and Inverness. It should state dry. Not too bad. | :26:11. | :26:16. | |
Nothing really changes as far as the rest of the day is concerned. | :26:16. | :26:22. | |
Again, looking at a light south- easterly. That the pressure -- are | :26:22. | :26:26. | |
that bit fresher in western coastal areas. Wednesday is looking drier. | :26:26. | :26:31. | |
The cloud breaking up across southern and central areas. The | :26:31. | :26:35. | |
best weather in the North a game. Thursday is looking cloudier with | :26:35. | :26:43. | |
The main news headlines: An inquiry into media ethics set up in the | :26:43. | :26:48. | |
wake of the phone hacking scandal has opened in London. The chairman | :26:48. | :26:51. | |
said freedom of the press was fundamental but he warned | :26:51. | :26:54. | |
newspapers not to target witnesses who spoke out against press | :26:54. | :26:58. | |
intrusion. A woman has told a fatal accident | :26:58. | :27:02. | |
inquiry how her elderly mother's false teeth were covered in green | :27:02. | :27:04. | |
slime and funders and so badly embedded in her mouth they had to | :27:05. | :27:10. | |
be removed in hospital. 87-year-old Betty McGaw died weeks later. She | :27:10. | :27:14. | |
had been a resident in a care home in Glasgow at the time run by | :27:14. | :27:17. | |
Southern Cross. Emergency services are dealing with | :27:17. | :27:20. | |
a league of drainage water from an oil handling facility on the Firth | :27:20. | :27:28. | |
of Forth. The leak is in a pipe from BP's terminal. It is said the | :27:28. | :27:31. |
