Tonight on Reporting Scotland... The moment a gangster was gunned

:00:16.:00:20.

down in a supermarket car park. In the Kevin "Gerbil" Carroll murder

:00:20.:00:23.

trial, a supermarket manager speaks of his shock at seeing two gunmen

:00:23.:00:33.
:00:33.:00:34.

blasting at a parked car. That is due. And my dad.

:00:34.:00:37.

A dedicated nurse for every person diagnosed with dementia. They'll

give special support during the first year of treatment.

:00:42.:00:45.

As the Titanic centenary approaches, the Dumfries schoolchildren paying

:00:45.:00:50.

tribute to two former pupils lost in the disaster. One played on as

:00:50.:01:00.

the ship sank. I think the whole band was pretty

:01:00.:01:05.

brave of. They had to stay calm and keep everybody else come.

:01:05.:01:06.

And also tonight... Scots aren't the happiest

:01:06.:01:08.

sleepers... But a new app for mobile phones

:01:08.:01:18.

might be about to make sure we're all guaranteed sweet dreams.

:01:18.:01:22.

In a supermarket manager has told of his shock when he sought two

:01:22.:01:25.

gunmen blasting at a car in the store car park. Steven McKenna was

:01:25.:01:29.

giving evidence at the trial of 30 Roald Ross Monaghan, who denies

:01:29.:01:37.

murdering Kevin Carroll in January 2010.

:01:37.:01:40.

46-year-old Stephen the canal was retail manager at Asda in Glasgow.

:01:40.:01:45.

Today, he gave the court his account of what happened on 13th

:01:45.:01:50.

January, 2010. He was then the staff Admin Office, which looked

:01:50.:01:55.

out onto the car-park. About 60 minutes into his shift, he said he

:01:55.:01:59.

heard a bang coming from the car- park. He turned to look out the

:01:59.:02:04.

window. He said he saw a black IED are being blocked in a baked by a

:02:04.:02:08.

Volkswagen Golf. He said he saw two men moving away at pace and two

:02:08.:02:14.

other men firing towards the driver's side of the car. He then

:02:14.:02:18.

said he saw the gunmen leave and head off in the direction of the

:02:18.:02:24.

motorway. He dialled 999, and while he was still on the phone, he made

:02:24.:02:29.

his way out of the store. Mr McKenna was asked what the scene

:02:29.:02:33.

was like. He said there was a stunned silence. He said, I walked

:02:33.:02:36.

towards the vehicle. I could clearly see the rear passenger

:02:36.:02:40.

window was almost obliterated. The hall was the size of their football.

:02:40.:02:44.

There was an adult male lying in the back seat. He said there was

:02:44.:02:49.

nothing he could do for him. The court was then played the 999 call

:02:49.:02:54.

Mr McKenna made. The operator said, or what is the emergency? Shots

:02:54.:02:59.

fired in a car-park. What sort of guns? Hand guns. We have one down

:02:59.:03:03.

in the back of the car. While he was still on the phone, he said he

:03:03.:03:07.

approached the two men from the black car. They told him the dead

:03:07.:03:10.

man was called Kevin Carroll. Mr McKenna said he was shocked and

:03:10.:03:14.

upset by what he saw. John Bonner, the driver of the black car, also

:03:14.:03:18.

give evidence. He described how he dived across to get out the

:03:18.:03:22.

passenger door when the gunmen approached. He said he fell to the

:03:22.:03:25.

ground with the key in his hand and was accidentally knocked it,

:03:25.:03:30.

locking the car. The defence put it to him. It must have been done by

:03:30.:03:35.

some sort of accident. The eye, said Mr on a. Otherwise, you

:03:35.:03:39.

deliberately locked him in the car. Ross Monaghan denies murdering

:03:39.:03:43.

Kevin Carroll, and has lodged a special defence incriminating eight

:03:43.:03:49.

others. The trial continues. Everyone who gets the diagnosis of

:03:49.:03:53.

dementia in future will be given the name of a nurse or health

:03:53.:03:55.

professional he will support them through their first year of

:03:55.:03:59.

treatment. The Scottish Government says the plan is the first of its

:03:59.:04:09.
:04:09.:04:09.

kind in the world. We all need Karin... This woman

:04:09.:04:13.

says her life used to be like in a for a piece of paper. Now, she

:04:13.:04:17.

tells me, it is becoming a postage stamp. She can do less and less

:04:17.:04:21.

every day. When she outlined her dementia symptoms to social workers,

:04:21.:04:26.

they asked... Why are we not helping you? And I said, you tell

:04:26.:04:33.

me. The next thing I knew, I got an officer coming to my house. I know

:04:33.:04:38.

she is an angel. Lee is an angel newly-qualified in

:04:38.:04:41.

dementia care. She is the kind of person who could be allocated to

:04:41.:04:45.

someone who has just been diagnosed. There are more and more diagnoses

:04:45.:04:50.

every day. A patients with an award for

:04:50.:04:52.

presenting that more often than not. Staff are finding it usually

:04:52.:04:57.

challenging to deal with the stations in an acute area. And if -

like I felt that it was up to me to acquire the knowledge to assist the

without the worry of his funding of or who supplies that service. That

live, in your circumstances, and that is liable deal with it.

:05:40.:05:42.

Scotland's health minister says she is listening and has already

:05:42.:05:47.

announced more nurses, specialists and targets. Today, a guarantee

:05:47.:05:53.

that it will all make a difference. Permission has been granted to

Charlie Noades RIP a sentencing at the High Court in Scotland for the

:05:56.:06:00.

first time. Cameras will be allowed into court when David Gilroy will

:06:00.:06:04.

be sentenced for the murder of Edinburgh woman, Suzanne Kelly. It

:06:04.:06:08.

follows an application from STV. The cameras are only allowed to

focus on the judge. You're watching Reporting Scotland

from the BBC. Still to come on the programme...

:06:13.:06:16.

One stone at a time. Work gets underway rebuilding an ancient

:06:16.:06:19.

archway at Scone Palace destroyed after it was hit by a van.

:06:19.:06:22.

In sport, a former grade one referee says he quit because of a

:06:22.:06:26.

culture of favouritism at the SFA. Craig Whyte reveals more to the BBC.

:06:26.:06:29.

And Sunday, the Masters. Tuesday, Murcar. Paul Lawrie believes

:06:29.:06:32.

watching his sons play has given him the desire to make the Ryder

Cup once again. The Mitsubishi Corporation is to

:06:45.:06:47.

invest in an engineering facility in the Edinburgh area, creating

:06:47.:06:51.

more than 100 new jobs. In 2010, the company acquired Artemis

:06:51.:06:56.

Intelligent Power, and pledged to turn it into a green energy hub.

:06:56.:06:59.

The new jobs are part of a research and development project aimed at

:06:59.:07:03.

producing a new type of generator for wind turbines.

:07:03.:07:07.

Iman has gone on trial accused of murdering another man in an

:07:07.:07:11.

Aberdeenshire village. 40-year-old James Bruce, who was from Peterhead,

:07:11.:07:16.

died in hospital. It was after an incident in Boddam in 2010. Ismail

:07:16.:07:20.

Burnett, who is 39, is alleged to have repeatedly struck Mr Chris on

:07:20.:07:24.

the body but a knife and then attempted to defeat the ends of

:07:24.:07:27.

justice. Mr Burnett denies the offences.

:07:27.:07:31.

An SNP MSP expelled from the party image domestic abuse allegations

:07:31.:07:35.

has decided to stay on in Parliament as an independent

:07:35.:07:39.

nationalist. Bill Walker says he will remain the MSP for a

:07:39.:07:43.

determined, the seat he won at a last election. He said as much to

:07:43.:07:48.

do in the coming years. The SNP through the 71-year-old out of the

:07:48.:07:51.

party after allegations concerning his three former wives. Mr Walker

:07:51.:07:55.

says the claims against him are unproven.

:07:55.:07:59.

Work has begun to rebuild a sixteenth-century stone archway at

:07:59.:08:03.

Scone Palace, near Perth. It was destroyed when it was hit by a van

:08:03.:08:11.

18 months ago. Our reporter is there. How is the work progressing?

:08:11.:08:15.

To my untrained eye, and despite today's weather, it seems to have

:08:15.:08:19.

got off to a pretty good start. Hopefully come within the next few

:08:19.:08:23.

months, the stones that we see on the ground beside me will be back

:08:23.:08:29.

up where they belong. That is where they belong. Up there. They are

:08:29.:08:32.

forming the archway which had stood undisturbed here at Scone Palace

:08:32.:08:37.

for nearly 500 years. 18 months ago, these stones came tumbling to the

:08:37.:08:42.

ground when the archway was struck by a van. That was a devastating

:08:42.:08:49.

blow for Scone Palace. Operation of restoration, day one. These

:08:49.:08:52.

stonemasons skills will be tested to the full, as they set about

:08:52.:08:56.

putting an historic Archway back together. They made a start by

:08:56.:09:00.

cleaning each of the stones which once spawned the archway. Experts

:09:00.:09:06.

are confident they can have the stones back to what they once were.

:09:06.:09:10.

I was here on the Thursday before the Monday before it collapsed. I

:09:10.:09:14.

was making sketches. These masons are skilful people. They were able

:09:14.:09:21.

to work from the photographs and sketches accurately. This is highly

the Scone Palace it looked before the accident. The front of the

:09:25.:09:29.

palace is framed by the stonework. 18 months ago, after being hit by a

:09:29.:09:34.

van, it was reduced to a pile of rubble. Some of the stones were

:09:34.:09:38.

thrown 50 feet. Of the van driver narrowly escaped injury. Assessing

:09:38.:09:41.

the damage and coming up with a repair plan began almost

immediately. This was the archway surrounding the original abbey.

:09:59.:10:06.

around it. There is such great importance to the family. A be a

:10:06.:10:10.

very happy. The start of restoration work today attracted a

:10:10.:10:15.

lot of attention. The skills of these stonemasons may be hard to

:10:15.:10:22.

come by today. Here, they're being put to very good use.

:10:22.:10:25.

Putting these stones back in the right place is an intricate task.

:10:25.:10:29.

Some experts have likened it to piecing together a giant jigsaw.

:10:29.:10:32.

They are confident at Scone Palace that they have the right team for

:10:32.:10:37.

the job. Given some bricks and the weather, they're hoping this

:10:37.:10:40.

historic arch wake will be restored to its former glory some time

within the next six months. -- historic archways.

been identified as those of Alan Templeton. The 25-year-old from

The 100th anniversary of the Titanic disaster will be marked

around the world on Sundays. Several Scots were among the 1,500

lives lost, including two young men who grew up together at Dumfries. -

why. She claimed the lives of two former pupils. John Hume, the

:12:00.:12:06.

violinist in Titanic's Orchestra. Music in his blood.

:12:06.:12:09.

Even at the age of five, he was playing the violin with great

:12:09.:12:15.

talent. He was taught by his father. He was a violin maker and a

:12:15.:12:18.

professor of music. It was not a surprise that he would be so adept

:12:18.:12:23.

at the violin. When Titanic was launched, they wanted the best of

:12:23.:12:30.

the musicians and John was so talented, so he was the chosen ones.

:12:30.:12:35.

This is for first class people! Another St Michael's old boy,

:12:35.:12:42.

Thomas Mann, was a steward on the third class decks. Less is known

:12:42.:12:47.

about 10, but when bad eyesight forced him to quit a mill job, his

:12:47.:12:53.

former classmate may have been party to what happened next.

:12:53.:12:58.

He appears that John Hume advised him that sealing the high seas was

:12:58.:13:02.

a possible future. Does fate decreed that the two men

:13:02.:13:07.

would perish together. John Hume's death was dignified and well-

:13:07.:13:10.

documented. But the band played on of the ship sank.

:13:10.:13:17.

They went to their post on deck and they played until the end.

:13:17.:13:23.

All of them were brave. There were just standing there playing.

:13:23.:13:29.

I think the whole band was pretty brave. They had to stay calm and

:13:29.:13:36.

keep everybody else come. At the age of 21, for John to have

:13:36.:13:41.

done that, alongside the other band members, it is something I admire.

BBC Scotland that he retired because of a culture of favouritism.

This is on the day and other top officials says refereeing is

thriving. Who is right? After two decades in the game, he

:16:07.:16:13.

has decided to walkaway because he does not move in the right circles.

:16:13.:16:21.

He says because of favouritism, and the SNP. Favouritism, friendship.

:16:21.:16:29.

That is one of the reasons I have decided to walkaway. I am seen as

:16:29.:16:34.

not one of that team players. comments come on a day when the

:16:34.:16:42.

current crop of professionals say it is thriving. It wasn't all for

different reasons. The morale is good. I have returned from a

quarter final on Thursday night. For a Scottish refereeing team to

bowl so far in Europe is excellent. Sour grapes? It is not sour grapes.

:17:01.:17:11.

I have refereed in top games, the SPL. It is not sour grapes. It is
