goodbye from me. On BBC One we now join the BBC's news teams where | :00:00. | :00:15. | |
On tonight's Reporting Scotland: Calls for a summer truce from a | :00:16. | :00:19. | |
former First Minister. Jack McConnell says this year's | :00:20. | :00:22. | |
Commonwealth Games in Glasgow should be free from political debate about | :00:23. | :00:30. | |
the independence referendum. This woman was killed, and her body | :00:31. | :00:34. | |
cut up and placed in a suitcase. Now her son goes on trial for her | :00:35. | :00:36. | |
murder. It's a beautiful country, but | :00:37. | :00:39. | |
Scotland's government says the distribution of who owns the land is | :00:40. | :00:48. | |
unfair. It may not be fair but is it fair that your wife is prettier than | :00:49. | :00:52. | |
mine, that you win the lottery and I don't? | :00:53. | :00:55. | |
Should pupils be given taxpayers money towards their savings? Find | :00:56. | :00:58. | |
out why Glasgow City Council is giving each school child ?10. | :00:59. | :01:02. | |
Paul Lawrie says he's swinging better than ever and tells us why he | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
thinks he can make this year's Ryder Cup at Gleneagles. | :01:07. | :01:10. | |
Good evening. The former First Minister, Lord McConnell, is calling | :01:11. | :01:15. | |
for both sides in the independence referendum debate to call a "truce" | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
during this summer's Commonwealth Games. But Alex Salmond says it's | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
"nonsensical" to suggest that politics would overshadow Glasgow | :01:22. | :01:27. | |
2014. Here's our political correspondent, Glenn Campbell. The | :01:28. | :01:37. | |
host for the 2014 Commonwealth Games will be Glasgow. Alex Salmond was in | :01:38. | :01:45. | |
show anchor to celebrate when blase won the right to host the games. But | :01:46. | :01:54. | |
the 2014 B at was launched by his predecessor as first Minister, Jack | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
McConnell. He wants formal referendum campaigning suspended for | :01:59. | :02:05. | |
the games. I think it would be great for Scotland if both sides of the | :02:06. | :02:08. | |
campaign would agree there will be a truce during and in the run-up to | :02:09. | :02:14. | |
the games. Then they can start again. As the two campaigns limber | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
up for the last nine months before the independence vote, neither side | :02:19. | :02:24. | |
seems keen on a truce for the games. They said they think it's hard to | :02:25. | :02:30. | |
see that happening and that it is unrealistic to think it could. | :02:31. | :02:37. | |
Scotland's first minister could not foresee any problems. The idea that | :02:38. | :02:47. | |
politics could overshadow the games is nonsensical. They will be one of | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
the greatest events Scotland has ever seen. Ladies and gentlemen, the | :02:52. | :02:59. | |
Wimbledon champion for 2013, Andy Murray. | :03:00. | :03:06. | |
Politicians do like to celebrate sporting achievements, so how should | :03:07. | :03:13. | |
they play the Glasgow games at a sensitive political time? This | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
former badminton ace thinks they do need to be careful. Both sections | :03:19. | :03:24. | |
are going to be visible at the games but if they are too visible, it | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
possibly detracts from the Scottish performance and the Scottish | :03:30. | :03:35. | |
accident -- the Scottish athletes. I hope they are not too visible and it | :03:36. | :03:43. | |
should be about the athletes. Not all of Scotland's greats will be | :03:44. | :03:50. | |
competing. But it is Scottish politics that Jack McConnell wants | :03:51. | :03:53. | |
to keep out of the sporting arena at the Glasgow games. Well, we can | :03:54. | :03:59. | |
cross to Westminster now and join our political correspondent, David | :04:00. | :04:02. | |
Porter, in the lobby of the House of Lords. A debate is taking place | :04:03. | :04:05. | |
tonight about the Commonwealth Games? That is correct. It will get | :04:06. | :04:11. | |
underway in the next hour or so in the House of Lords chamber. They | :04:12. | :04:17. | |
will be discussing the plans to guarantee the success of the 2014 | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. That is a fairly wide-ranging debate. It | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
should allow peers to pick up any points they want to. There are a | :04:27. | :04:30. | |
fair number of peers who have some sympathy with Jack McConnell and his | :04:31. | :04:35. | |
call for the politicians to butt out for that fortnight in July and | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
August when the games take days to allow the athletes to take centre | :04:40. | :04:42. | |
stage. Some think that although that may be a good idea, it is rather | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
naive idea and that politicians will not be able to resist the | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
temptation. Other peers and MPs I have spoken to actually doubt | :04:52. | :04:57. | |
whether the public will have a -- an appetite for politics was the games | :04:58. | :05:01. | |
are going on. They point out what happened during London 2012, when | :05:02. | :05:07. | |
politicians tried to get involved -- try to get involved, they got the | :05:08. | :05:13. | |
rough end of the stick. They will be mindful of that. The politicians | :05:14. | :05:18. | |
themselves may decide it is wrong to try to compete with sport during the | :05:19. | :05:23. | |
two weeks of the Commonwealth Games. In that case, they may find you know | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
campaign so that when the Commonwealth Games are over, in the | :05:28. | :05:31. | |
last six weeks before the referendum vote, that is when the big fish will | :05:32. | :05:43. | |
take place. Thank you. And BBC Scotland has a new series of | :05:44. | :05:46. | |
referendum debates - beginning in Greenock on the 21st of January and | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
touring the country over the next nine months. If you'd like the | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
chance to come along and put your questions to senior politicians, | :05:54. | :05:56. | |
then go to our website for more details about how to take part. | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
A witness has told a murder trial how he noticed "very white teeth" on | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
the ground in a clearing in an Edinburgh wood. James Dunleavy, also | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
known as Seamus, is accused of murdering his 66-year-old mother, | :06:08. | :06:09. | |
Philomena, and dismembering her body and burying it in a suitcase on | :06:10. | :06:12. | |
Corstorphine Hill. Catriona Renton was in court. | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
On the 6th of June last year, a cyclist found human remains. For | :06:17. | :06:23. | |
weeks, the victim's identity was unknown but after many police | :06:24. | :06:27. | |
appeals, detectives established it was 60 Six Rd Philomena Donleavy | :06:28. | :06:35. | |
from Dublin. Today, in court, her 40-year-old son went on trial. The | :06:36. | :06:41. | |
first witness to be called was the whip -- the cyclist who found her. | :06:42. | :06:49. | |
He described how he was cycling home and took a deep to up the hill. He | :06:50. | :06:53. | |
said it was a fine day and he decided to have a rest in a clearing | :06:54. | :06:58. | |
he had spotted. He said almost instantly the first thing he noticed | :06:59. | :07:01. | |
were very white teeth. He realised what he was looking at were a skull | :07:02. | :07:07. | |
and teeth and he said there were markings on the ground that look | :07:08. | :07:12. | |
like they have main -- they had been made by a shovel. He took a photo | :07:13. | :07:16. | |
and later went to the police. He said, I could not remember what I | :07:17. | :07:21. | |
said exactly to them but it was something like, I think I have found | :07:22. | :07:27. | |
the body. The court was shown a photograph of what confronted him | :07:28. | :07:31. | |
with a warning that some might find it disturbing. The accused denies | :07:32. | :07:39. | |
murdering and dismembering his mother. He also denies telling | :07:40. | :07:45. | |
others that his mother was ill and had gone home to Ireland when it is | :07:46. | :07:49. | |
instead claimed that he put her remains in a suitcase and took them | :07:50. | :07:58. | |
to the hill, where he buried them. Still to come on the programme: Why | :07:59. | :08:05. | |
local campaigners are fighting hard to save this piece of printing | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
history. And Paul Lawrie on trying to get | :08:10. | :08:12. | |
over the nightmare of last season and get into the Ryder Cup team. And | :08:13. | :08:17. | |
can you put a price on this level of the site -- meant excitement? | :08:18. | :08:32. | |
MSPs will have failed Scotland if they fail to reduce the dominance of | :08:33. | :08:42. | |
traditional sporting estates. That is the message from some. | :08:43. | :08:50. | |
Research suggests just 432 people own half the Private held land in | :08:51. | :08:55. | |
Scotland. That is largely down to big estates created for shooting and | :08:56. | :09:02. | |
fishing. A league table of big landowners includes the government, | :09:03. | :09:05. | |
the National trust for Scotland and even the RSPB. But traditional | :09:06. | :09:09. | |
estates still hold five of the top ten places, with the Dukes estate | :09:10. | :09:18. | |
leading the pack. The government wants to see change. We believe | :09:19. | :09:23. | |
there should be a fairer distribution of land. The | :09:24. | :09:27. | |
communities should have access to land in order to achieve what they | :09:28. | :09:36. | |
want to. And if in decades to come we still have a pattern of land | :09:37. | :09:41. | |
ownership in rural Scotland where our landscape is dominated by | :09:42. | :09:45. | |
sporting estates, will that be a failure of government? If we do not | :09:46. | :09:52. | |
see a fairer distribution of land, we will have failed. But is this an | :09:53. | :10:00. | |
issue the government should act on? One man who owns a very large estate | :10:01. | :10:07. | |
inks not. It may not be fair but is it fair that your wife is prettier | :10:08. | :10:11. | |
than mine? That you win the lottery and I do not? It is a concern | :10:12. | :10:20. | |
stirred up, as far as I can see, by those with access to these things | :10:21. | :10:30. | |
but those who live in these areas it does not seem to bother them. The | :10:31. | :10:38. | |
government are looking into this. The gentleman looking into it has | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
said that he does not want to get rid of all big estates, but he wants | :10:44. | :10:54. | |
to look at it properly. And you can see more on that story in BBC | :10:55. | :10:57. | |
Scotland Investigates: The Men Who Own Scotland, tonight at 10.35pm on | :10:58. | :10:59. | |
BBC One Scotland. A Super Puma that crashed into the | :11:00. | :11:03. | |
North Sea killing 16 men was declared fit for service the day | :11:04. | :11:06. | |
before the tragedy. A fatal accident inquiry in Aberdeen also heard that | :11:07. | :11:09. | |
the aircraft operator's head of engineering wasn't aware that a | :11:10. | :11:12. | |
fault had been found with the helicopter in the days before the | :11:13. | :11:15. | |
crash. Steven Duff's been listening to today's evidence. Jackie, this | :11:16. | :11:24. | |
has been at times a very technical fatal accident enquiry. Today, we | :11:25. | :11:28. | |
heard from James Gilmour who was the director of engineering at Bond | :11:29. | :11:34. | |
offshore helicopters in 2009. He was shown a photograph of the crashed, | :11:35. | :11:40. | |
seen here in flight in 2005, and he showed -- he confirmed that a | :11:41. | :11:46. | |
licensed engineer had certified the helicopter fit for service the day | :11:47. | :11:50. | |
before the crash. The same engineering team also lifted the | :11:51. | :11:53. | |
need for additional inspections on the aircraft which had been imposed | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
on previous days because a metal particle had been found in its | :11:59. | :12:03. | |
gearbox. That is important because later the air accident investigators | :12:04. | :12:07. | |
pinpointed the presence of metal particles as being fundamental to | :12:08. | :12:12. | |
the cause of the crash. Asked if he knew about the particle or the extra | :12:13. | :12:17. | |
inspections, he said that he did not. Asked if he should have done he | :12:18. | :12:22. | |
said he would did not get involved in day-to-day hanger work. The | :12:23. | :12:27. | |
enquiry is still being attended by many of the relatives of the 16 men | :12:28. | :12:34. | |
who died and will continue tomorrow. The European Commission is looking | :12:35. | :12:37. | |
into claims that Celtic Football club broke EU rules in land deals | :12:38. | :12:40. | |
involving Glasgow City Council. Officials in Brussels say they've | :12:41. | :12:42. | |
asked for information from the authorities here, after receiving | :12:43. | :12:45. | |
several complaints from members of the public. Glasgow City Council | :12:46. | :12:48. | |
confirmed one of the complaints focussed on land deals around Celtic | :12:49. | :12:50. | |
Park. The St Mirren player Paul McGowan | :12:51. | :12:54. | |
has been sentenced to 130 hours of unpaid work and a one-year | :12:55. | :12:57. | |
supervision order for attacking two police officers. The midfielder | :12:58. | :13:01. | |
admitted kicking one constable and repeatedly kicking another in | :13:02. | :13:04. | |
Airdrie and at Coatbridge Police Station last August. A sheriff told | :13:05. | :13:08. | |
McGowan, who has a previous conviction for police assault, that | :13:09. | :13:11. | |
his punishment was a direct alternative to custody. Pupils in | :13:12. | :13:18. | |
the first year of secondary school in Glasgow are to be given ?10 by | :13:19. | :13:23. | |
the City Council, in a bid to halt the rise of high-cost payday | :13:24. | :13:27. | |
lenders. It's become the first local authority in the country to run a | :13:28. | :13:31. | |
voluntary scheme, giving youngsters the chance to open a credit union | :13:32. | :13:34. | |
account and learn to save responsibly. Suzanne Allan reports. | :13:35. | :13:38. | |
Are you going to think about joining? Today, pupils were amongst | :13:39. | :13:47. | |
the first to try the scheme. The council will give any first-year | :13:48. | :13:52. | |
pupil at a Glasgow secondary ?10 to put into a credit union account. We | :13:53. | :13:56. | |
are making sure that our young people have the opportunity to do | :13:57. | :14:00. | |
join the local credit union. They will learn how to manage their own | :14:01. | :14:04. | |
finances and hopefully save money. We are providing ?10 for each | :14:05. | :14:10. | |
account holder to start a savings fan. Pupils cannot touch the money | :14:11. | :14:18. | |
for at least a year. I think it is great having credit unions at | :14:19. | :14:21. | |
school. It is teaching young people how to save money. Is that something | :14:22. | :14:28. | |
you already need lessons on? I think I probably need some lessons. I | :14:29. | :14:33. | |
think it is great because if you want to know what you'd needed for | :14:34. | :14:42. | |
in the future. With the recent recession, the numbers of people | :14:43. | :14:46. | |
taking out payday loans is soaring. 100,000 people in Glasgow last year. | :14:47. | :14:54. | |
Do credit unions see people coming to them who have had had experiences | :14:55. | :15:00. | |
with payday lenders? Yes, they have got into bother. It has cost them an | :15:01. | :15:04. | |
awful lot of money. And possibly through speaking to family, friends, | :15:05. | :15:11. | |
relatives, they understand that by saving, they can then borrow at a | :15:12. | :15:17. | |
very low interest rate. This scheme is voluntary and already a thousand | :15:18. | :15:22. | |
of the 4000 pupils in Glasgow have signed up in advance. Be investing | :15:23. | :15:27. | |
in one year 's time to see if those accounts are zero or ?20. -- it will | :15:28. | :15:35. | |
be interesting. Other stories from across Scotland | :15:36. | :15:38. | |
this Wednesday. Police in the Highlands are | :15:39. | :15:41. | |
appealing for witnesses to an accident when a man was apparently | :15:42. | :15:45. | |
killed by his own vehicle. It happened between Maryburgh and Tor | :15:46. | :15:52. | |
north of Inverness. To the driver, a 44-year-old man was | :15:53. | :15:56. | |
run over by his own vehicle at the head had stopped his vehicle in this | :15:57. | :16:01. | |
lay-by. -- after he had. The accident happened when the road | :16:02. | :16:04. | |
would have been busy with commuter traffic heading home. | :16:05. | :16:07. | |
A woman who died in a three vehicle crash on the A75 Dumfries by pass | :16:08. | :16:11. | |
yesterday has been named as 50-year-old Lynne Trainor who lived | :16:12. | :16:13. | |
nearby. Police are continuing to appeal for witnesses. | :16:14. | :16:17. | |
Administrators for the Orkney-based jewellery company Ortak say that | :16:18. | :16:20. | |
they've been unable to find a buyer for the whole business, leaving | :16:21. | :16:27. | |
dozens of jobs in doubt. The company, which operated 15 stores | :16:28. | :16:29. | |
across the UK, went into administration in March last year. | :16:30. | :16:34. | |
Dumfries and Galloway Council wants to tap into a ?30 million government | :16:35. | :16:38. | |
fund to open up to four new railway stations in Thornhill, Eastriggs, | :16:39. | :16:44. | |
Dunraggit and Beattock. The Cameo cinema in Edinburgh | :16:45. | :16:49. | |
celebrates its centenary today. Originally called the Kings Cinema, | :16:50. | :16:52. | |
it's had to reinvent itself to survive the threat from home-based | :16:53. | :17:00. | |
entertainment. I think there is still a real appetite for seeing | :17:01. | :17:03. | |
films in a cinema, a collective experience. It is unique. Archivists | :17:04. | :17:08. | |
at the Black Watch museum in Perth have begun studying documents left | :17:09. | :17:11. | |
by an officer who fought during the First World War. | :17:12. | :17:14. | |
Lieutenant Colonel John Stewart left instructions the letters and other | :17:15. | :17:16. | |
papers were to remain sealed until 2014. It's one of the biggest | :17:17. | :17:21. | |
collection of papers left by an individual from the war. | :17:22. | :17:26. | |
And there are more stories from your area and regularly updated news on | :17:27. | :17:39. | |
BBC Scotland's website. Let's now get the sport news from | :17:40. | :17:42. | |
David. Yes, good evening. Paul Lawrie says | :17:43. | :17:52. | |
his game is in better shape now than it was in the run-up to the last | :17:53. | :17:55. | |
Ryder Cup. The 44-year-old Aberdonian admits he endured a | :17:56. | :17:58. | |
nightmare last season but that a hard winter of practice has him in | :17:59. | :18:02. | |
good shape for the start of his bid to make the European team for | :18:03. | :18:05. | |
Gleneagles this autumn. Phil Goodlad reports. | :18:06. | :18:29. | |
Now, a look at what else is happening across Scottish sport. | :18:30. | :18:32. | |
Test test test. The remaining three spots in the 12 | :18:33. | :18:42. | |
player team, they will be picked by the captain. Last year, I would have | :18:43. | :18:49. | |
had no chance but I think I have got myself sorted out. I did a little | :18:50. | :18:54. | |
work with my swing coach and we have got things sorted out. It is | :18:55. | :19:01. | |
probably better than it was in 2012. There is a lot of confidence coming | :19:02. | :19:05. | |
back. Peter Lawrie will be in the Middle East next week, where his | :19:06. | :19:12. | |
quest to qualify for the Ryder Cup in Gleneagles begins. | :19:13. | :19:20. | |
Supporters of second division club Albion Rovers are in a great mood | :19:21. | :19:32. | |
this evening. The fans here are choosing what they | :19:33. | :19:45. | |
want to pay to watch the match. I think football is expensive. It | :19:46. | :19:50. | |
has become a crease in the expensive and times are difficult at the | :19:51. | :19:55. | |
moment. We are not yet out of the recession. I know there are some | :19:56. | :19:58. | |
green shoots of recovery but we are not yet there. I do think football | :19:59. | :20:04. | |
clubs and the game in general needs to look at the pricing models and | :20:05. | :20:08. | |
make sure it is fit for purpose. Nobody Albion Rovers attracts two | :20:09. | :20:17. | |
wooden 50 spectators -- normally Albion Rovers attracts 250 | :20:18. | :20:22. | |
spectators. They do need a bit more support. People make jokes about it. | :20:23. | :20:29. | |
I think people should get behind the team. They would rather go on watch | :20:30. | :20:40. | |
-- go and watch Rangers and Celtic. After their Scottish cup win over | :20:41. | :20:44. | |
Motherwell and the cost eight constant gripe amongst fans, this is | :20:45. | :20:48. | |
at least an example of a football club trying to do something for the | :20:49. | :20:59. | |
long-suffering fans. And now I look at what else is happening in the | :21:00. | :21:02. | |
world of sport. Andy Murray's been seeded fourth for | :21:03. | :21:05. | |
the Australian Open. The draw's made on Friday. The tournament starts on | :21:06. | :21:10. | |
Monday. Murray's picked up the runners up award in the competition | :21:11. | :21:12. | |

Goodwillie. The Blackburn striker's loan deal at Dundee United is due to | :21:19. | :21:21. | |
end this month. Inverness have extended the contracts of two | :21:22. | :21:32. | |
players. High Speed two agents every day and we are looking for players. | :21:33. | :21:38. | |
-- I speak to agents. Midfielder Danny Williams has signed up till | :21:39. | :21:41. | |
summer 2016 and so has tough tackling left back Carl Tremarco. | :21:42. | :21:44. | |
Hibernian's Kevin Thomson has been told he can leave the club. The | :21:45. | :21:49. | |
former Scotland midfielder's contract runs till the end of the | :21:50. | :21:51. | |

Peebles is also the sport's overall 2013 Global Champions Tour winner. | :21:59. | :22:03. | |
And there are more sports stories, plus all the latest news, 24 hours a | :22:04. | :22:17. | |
day on BBC Sport Scotland's website. Some transfer news, Dundee United | :22:18. | :22:27. | |
have signed a former Falkirk striker on loan from Brentford. | :22:28. | :22:34. | |
Historians and local campaigners are working on plans to save one of the | :22:35. | :22:38. | |
last remaining working print shops in Scotland. They building housing | :22:39. | :22:42. | |
the machinery is hidden in a side street in Blairgowrie. It's a time | :22:43. | :22:48. | |
capsule housing the old fashioned printing presses with their letters | :22:49. | :22:51. | |
and fonts. But the premises are in danger of collapse, as Elizabeth | :22:52. | :22:54. | |
Quigley's been finding out. Putting words together, piece by | :22:55. | :22:56. | |
piece. It is painstaking and time-consuming. This the listed | :22:57. | :23:02. | |
print shop has been here in Blairgowrie since the end of the | :23:03. | :23:06. | |
19th century, complete with all the original cases and fittings. The | :23:07. | :23:14. | |
technology might have changed but the language we use today is | :23:15. | :23:18. | |
littered with phrases from the world of printing. They had the upper case | :23:19. | :23:25. | |
and lower case, which had the upper and lower case letters in. And the | :23:26. | :23:30. | |
individual letters in those cases were known as sorts, we you had a | :23:31. | :23:34. | |
box of sorts. If you ran out of letters, sorts, you were out of | :23:35. | :23:43. | |
sorts. The bed of the press was where you put the newspaper to bed. | :23:44. | :23:47. | |
It looked like a big double bed. All these other terms became gradually | :23:48. | :23:53. | |
absorbed into everyday language. This is a real time capsule. It is a | :23:54. | :23:58. | |
method of printing that is all but forgotten, consigned to the history | :23:59. | :24:04. | |
books but it could get a new lease of life. There are ambitious plans | :24:05. | :24:08. | |
for the disused local school. What you have seen today is some unique | :24:09. | :24:16. | |
machinery, going back 150 years. It is still working. The primary school | :24:17. | :24:23. | |
project will represent an opportunity for us to take these | :24:24. | :24:27. | |
machines, put them into a new purpose-built museum and let all the | :24:28. | :24:32. | |
generations of today see what the generations did in the past. This | :24:33. | :24:38. | |
way of printing might be long gone, but perhaps the machinery will find | :24:39. | :24:46. | |
a new way to live on. Time now for the weather forecast. | :24:47. | :24:57. | |
This is the map from seven o'clock. Some showers across the north and | :24:58. | :25:07. | |
north-west. Maybe a spell of snow across the a 468. Further north, | :25:08. | :25:14. | |
largely dry and Chile. Temperatures in towns and cities in low single | :25:15. | :25:23. | |
digits. Some frost in rural parts. Tomorrow, it is a day much like | :25:24. | :25:27. | |
today, fairly settled. Bright spells and a couple of isolated showers. | :25:28. | :25:34. | |
The showers will be isolated, across the West and nothing too heavy. By | :25:35. | :25:37. | |
mid-afternoon, a touch cooler than today. Seven Celsius at times. Some | :25:38. | :25:47. | |
blue skies. Come further north, the showers will be a bit more frequent | :25:48. | :25:52. | |
and that breeze coming in from the West or the north-west. Then the | :25:53. | :25:57. | |
rest of the afternoon into the evening and overnight, still some | :25:58. | :26:00. | |
showers to content with added will be called -- it will be colder. | :26:01. | :26:08. | |
This front will bring in some rain and much cooler air as well. On | :26:09. | :26:12. | |
Friday, it starts dry and bright in the East but turning wet by late | :26:13. | :26:17. | |
afternoon. It should improve by dusk. | :26:18. | :26:24. | |
And that cold air right overhead as we head to win to Saturday. It is | :26:25. | :26:27. | |
the tail end of the very cold conditions they have had in the | :26:28. | :26:31. | |
United States. But thankfully, not that cold. Just about average for | :26:32. | :26:40. | |
us. It will be fairly cloudy this evening. The chance of seeing the | :26:41. | :26:44. | |
aurora borealis, but maybe tomorrow is the best night to see that. That | :26:45. | :26:53. | |
is the focus for now. There were angry scenes at the Royal | :26:54. | :26:57. | |
Courts of Justice after a jury found that Mark Duggan was lawfully killed | :26:58. | :27:02. | |
when he was shot in a police marksman. | :27:03. | :27:06. | |
Lord McConnell is calling for both sides in the independence referendum | :27:07. | :27:11. | |
debate to call a truce during the Common of games. Alex Salmond says | :27:12. | :27:15. | |
it is nonsensical to suggest politics would overshadow the games. | :27:16. | :27:21. | |
Air force personnel have spent the day removing ammunition and a brief | :27:22. | :27:24. | |
run a beach in Norfolk where a US military helicopter crashed last | :27:25. | :27:30. | |
night. The aircraft was taking part in a low-flying exercise. | :27:31. | :27:32. | |
And that's Reporting Scotland. I'll be back with the headlines at 8pm. | :27:33. | :27:39. | |
Until then, from everyone on the team here in Glasgow and around the | :27:40. | :27:42. | |
country, have a good evening. | :27:43. | :27:45. |
