George. Thank you. That's all so it's goodbye from me and on BBC One | :00:00. | 3:59:59 | |
we Welcome to Reporting Scotland. | :00:00. | :00:17. | |
Tonight, the trial of a man accused of killing his own mother is told he | :00:18. | :00:21. | |
thought he might be evil and was hearing voices in his head. | :00:22. | :00:24. | |
The hill walker who fell 800 feet off a mountain and survived to tell | :00:25. | :00:34. | |
us the story. When you go over cliff and you can | :00:35. | :00:38. | |
feel yourself not touching anything, you kind of figure that you have had | :00:39. | :00:40. | |
it. Also tonight, the story of how this | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
incredible bird flies 16,000 miles from Shetland to Peru, via Iceland, | :00:45. | :00:49. | |
every winter. And hands up if you're feeling | :00:50. | :00:51. | |
burned out. Hearts say their transfer embargo | :00:52. | :00:54. | |
should be lifted, because their teenagers are playing too many | :00:55. | :00:55. | |
games. A court has heard that a man on | :00:56. | :01:04. | |
trial for murdering his mother told a local shopkeeper that he thought | :01:05. | :01:07. | |
he might be evil and was hearing voices in his head. 40-year-old | :01:08. | :01:10. | |
James, known as Seamus, Dunleavy also told him that his mother had | :01:11. | :01:14. | |
gone home to Ireland without saying goodbye. Seamus Dunleavy denies | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
murdering his 66-year-old mother Philomena and burying her | :01:18. | :01:19. | |
dismembered body on Corstophine Hill. | :01:20. | :01:32. | |
Catriona Renton was in court. Mohammed had become friends with | :01:33. | :01:35. | |
Seamus Dunleavy, is if they were like brothers. He managed this shop, | :01:36. | :01:41. | |
below Mr Dunleavy's flat. Seamus Dunleavy went into it twice a day | :01:42. | :01:47. | |
and Mohammed said that Mr Dunleavy had been interested in Islam and he | :01:48. | :01:50. | |
gave in the key to his flat so that they could say his prayers when he | :01:51. | :01:55. | |
could not get to the mosque. He also got to know Philomena Dunleavy, | :01:56. | :01:58. | |
known as Phyllis, when she came to see her son from Dublin. He used to | :01:59. | :02:04. | |
call her auntie. He said at the end of April, she visited again. If you | :02:05. | :02:09. | |
days later, he went up to the flat to see them. He said that Philomena | :02:10. | :02:14. | |
had said that she would have left her husband and had gone to live | :02:15. | :02:19. | |
with her new boyfriend. He said that Seamus Dunleavy was agitated and | :02:20. | :02:23. | |
annoyed by this, so he said he went to see in the next day to see that | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
everything was OK. You said when he got to the front door, Mr Dunleavy | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
jammed it with his foot and said, no, his mother was not well, she was | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
sleeping and he could not come in. He said that he never saw Phyllis | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
Dunleavy again. If you days later, when he and Seamus Dunleavy had | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
meant to be going to a wedding together, Seamus Dunleavy had told | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
him that his mother had left early that morning and didn't even say | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
goodbye. He said that 80 days went by, but then, Seamus Dunleavy went | :02:56. | :03:00. | |
into the shop and said I think I might be evil, I'm hearing voices in | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
my head. He said he felt a cold chill down his spine and felt | :03:05. | :03:10. | |
uneasy. He said not long after that, they stopped speaking altogether. | :03:11. | :03:16. | |
Earlier, the court heard from Doctor Jennifer Miller who excavated the | :03:17. | :03:20. | |
grave on Corstophine Hill. Mrs Dunleavy's body was found dead on | :03:21. | :03:25. | |
the 6th of June last year. The court was warned that the images were of | :03:26. | :03:30. | |
human race. A time-lapse showed her body being removed from the grave | :03:31. | :03:33. | |
that is about a foot and a half deep. Doctor Miller said it would've | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
been difficult to dig has the soil was hard and dense. Dunleavy denies | :03:38. | :03:46. | |
murdering his mother. He also denies intending to others that she was | :03:47. | :03:51. | |
unwell and had gone back to Ireland. A hill walker who fell 800 feet down | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
the side of a mountain in the Cairngorms has spoken for the first | :03:56. | :03:57. | |
time about his near-miraculous survival. Ollie Daniel was walking | :03:58. | :04:01. | |
along Ben Macdui at the weekend, when he plummeted off the cliff. | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
But, despite his injuries, he says it hasn't put him off mountaineering | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
and he plans to be back out once he recovers. He's been talking | :04:10. | :04:11. | |
exclusively to our reporter Kevin Keane. | :04:12. | :04:22. | |
Battered, bruised and with a broken wrist and cracked ribs, but | :04:23. | :04:25. | |
incredibly Ollie Daniels is here to tell the tale. This mountain rescue | :04:26. | :04:32. | |
footage shows him being finally airlifted to safety. Hours earlier, | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
he had been walking along the plateau of Ben Macdui when the snow | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
underneath his feet gave way. It would be a near vertical journey to | :04:42. | :04:50. | |
the bottom of about half a mile. There are sections of sliding and | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
sections of freefall. When you're going over a cliff and you can feel | :04:55. | :04:58. | |
yourself not touching anything, you kind of figure that you have had it. | :04:59. | :05:06. | |
Still on top, his dad and his friend called for help. After an hour and a | :05:07. | :05:10. | |
half of searching, dated the difficult decision to take | :05:11. | :05:17. | |
themselves to safety and walk away. Immediately afterwards, I wanted to | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
go down after him and I had to stop myself from doing that. When the | :05:21. | :05:24. | |
dark about, I wanted to carry on looking for him and I had to stop | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
myself from doing that. You must not do those things. It was a tough one. | :05:29. | :05:37. | |
The conditions when they set off were wild, but these were | :05:38. | :05:40. | |
experienced mountaineers who had taken all the safety equipment they | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
could. This is how astonishing it is that the fall did not kill him. The | :05:46. | :05:50. | |
Forth Bridge stands at around 360 feet. He fell a distance that is | :05:51. | :05:55. | |
more than double that. The site of a helicopter overhead was a massive | :05:56. | :06:02. | |
relief. By that time, I had hunkered down a sleeping bag to try and wait | :06:03. | :06:06. | |
it out. When the first flare went up, it should mean that they were | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
close. That was a big relief. None of this has put the party of what | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
they were training for, they still plan an expedition up a Russian | :06:16. | :06:24. | |
mountain late in the year. You are watching Reporting Scotland. | :06:25. | :06:29. | |
Still to come: How learning English at a Glasgow College is helping to | :06:30. | :06:32. | |
transform the lives of refugees and asylum seekers. Why hearts are | :06:33. | :06:40. | |
tempted to have a transfer embargo lifted is deft -- is destined to | :06:41. | :06:43. | |
fail. Scotland's financial watchdog has | :06:44. | :06:53. | |
savaged a local authority. Scotland's financial watchdog has | :06:54. | :07:14. | |
savaged a local authority for its management of a failed district | :07:15. | :07:17. | |
heating scheme, which cost the taxpayer ?11.5 million. The Accounts | :07:18. | :07:19. | |
Commission says there were serious weaknesses in Highland Council's | :07:20. | :07:22. | |
scrutiny of the project which led to a substantial loss of public money. | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
Craig Anderson reports. On the face of it, it was a laudable project, | :07:26. | :07:27. | |
environmentally friendly with a biomass boiler. In an area of high | :07:28. | :07:30. | |
fuel poverty. It never works. It racked up of of losses, the | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
Daugherty failed to manage this properly. Significant deficiencies | :07:36. | :07:42. | |
in the governance of the project. It failed because it was not set up and | :07:43. | :07:47. | |
manage properly. The governance arrangements were... There were no | :07:48. | :07:51. | |
lines of accountability. Fundamentally, adequate assessment | :07:52. | :07:58. | |
of the risks involved. The project was eventually abandoned at a new | :07:59. | :08:01. | |
Council Administration took control. The leader of the authority today | :08:02. | :08:08. | |
and access the conclusion that his predecessors got it wrong. It would | :08:09. | :08:13. | |
take some small comfort from this massive loss and the shambles it is | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
the work that has been done since 2008 to sort out these problems and | :08:19. | :08:21. | |
that in safeguards to make sure that this kind of thing cannot happen. It | :08:22. | :08:26. | |
is a constant work of vigilance to make sure that we are keeping on top | :08:27. | :08:30. | |
of this and we keep the right kind of scrutiny on all projects. The | :08:31. | :08:35. | |
Accounts Commission does give credit to Highland Council for the way it | :08:36. | :08:42. | |
did act to improve scrutiny. But it warns that other local authorities, | :08:43. | :08:51. | |
this is a textbook local example how not to run schemes like this. | :08:52. | :09:03. | |
Concerns have been Concerns have been raised in the | :09:04. | :09:11. | |
Scottish Parliament about allegations that a health board is | :09:12. | :09:14. | |
trying to gag a senior consultant who raised issues about patient | :09:15. | :09:17. | |
care. This comes despite clear guidance from the Health Secretary | :09:18. | :09:20. | |
forbidding the practice. Tonight, the health board concerned denied it | :09:21. | :09:23. | |
was trying to gag the doctor. Aileen Clarke is here with more. | :09:24. | :09:26. | |
Last year, the Health Secretary Alex Neil send out this letter to all | :09:27. | :09:29. | |
Scotland's health boards. This was just after the report into the | :09:30. | :09:32. | |
failings at Mid Staffordshire NHS Trust in England. In the letter he | :09:33. | :09:36. | |
states, "I expect boards to ensure that confidentiality clauses are not | :09:37. | :09:39. | |
used to suppress the reporting of concerns about practice in the NHS | :09:40. | :09:42. | |
in Scotland," and he also said it should be ensured "that staff are | :09:43. | :09:46. | |
not penalised or persecuted in any way for raising concerns in good | :09:47. | :09:49. | |
faith." However, this consultant, Dr Jane Hamilton, who was working at St | :09:50. | :09:52. | |
John's hospital in Livingston, believes she is being asked to sign | :09:53. | :09:55. | |
away her rights to talk about her concerns about patient care, because | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
of the terms of the payoff deal being offered to her by Lothian | :10:00. | :10:04. | |
Health Board. She joined a specialist psychiatric | :10:05. | :10:08. | |
mother and baby unit at a hospital in Livingston. By the end of that | :10:09. | :10:14. | |
year, she says that she had started to raise concerns about staffing | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
levels and training, worried that a fatality could result. The following | :10:19. | :10:22. | |
year, she says, she went off with stress and has not worked on the | :10:23. | :10:27. | |
unit since. I appreciate it can be difficult to manage these | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
situations. However, I would say that being offered a settlement | :10:32. | :10:35. | |
agreement, although it is one outcome to the situation, I think | :10:36. | :10:39. | |
being gagged about my consent is something that I cannot accept. The | :10:40. | :10:44. | |
issue of the severance terms was raised in Scottish Parliament this | :10:45. | :10:48. | |
afternoon. Will be First Minister step in and when he condemned the | :10:49. | :10:53. | |
use of gagging clauses in cases where NHS staff are raising concerns | :10:54. | :11:01. | |
about patient care and safety? That the city referred to in any | :11:02. | :11:04. | |
compromise agreement, that is concerns about patient welfare, or | :11:05. | :11:09. | |
bullying or other aspects. If that is the case, and that is explicitly | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
within an agreement, I'm sure that Neil Findlay will be satisfied. The | :11:15. | :11:19. | |
First Minister also said that an independent report had been carried | :11:20. | :11:23. | |
out into the unit and no evidence had been found that it was dangerous | :11:24. | :11:29. | |
or unsafe. NHS Lothian in their own statements today said: | :11:30. | :11:48. | |
a protected disclosure, remember, is when a member of staff raises a | :11:49. | :11:55. | |
concern about patient welfare. The aim being to encourage staff to | :11:56. | :11:57. | |
speak up if they think there are problems endangering patients. | :11:58. | :12:02. | |
Doctor Hamilton and her supporters believe that she is being asked to | :12:03. | :12:06. | |
take her severance deal and keep quiet. These things are never black | :12:07. | :12:14. | |
and white. Obviously, there is room for interpretation. I think there is | :12:15. | :12:19. | |
an umbrella term in it to say that protected disclosures, obviously, | :12:20. | :12:23. | |
you have a duty to raise those in situations as a court. However, I | :12:24. | :12:29. | |
think they specified a number of complaints that I could not take | :12:30. | :12:34. | |
further about employees of NHS Lothian. These were not grievances, | :12:35. | :12:38. | |
these were protected disclosures which acquired further | :12:39. | :12:42. | |
investigation. External investigation. I feel this has never | :12:43. | :12:43. | |
happened. She ideally would like her job back, | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
but she says that's not on offer and she is left feeling victimised for | :12:48. | :12:50. | |
raising concerns, concerns that she is not satisfied have all been | :12:51. | :12:54. | |
properly addressed. The Health Secretary is looking into the matter | :12:55. | :12:57. | |
and will report back on his findings. | :12:58. | :13:07. | |
The head of engineering for Bond, helicopters has told the enquiry | :13:08. | :13:15. | |
into the 2009 Super Puma tragedy in which 16 people died that it would | :13:16. | :13:18. | |
have been very tight to carry out all the necessary checks during a | :13:19. | :13:23. | |
ten minute turnaround the day before it crashed, as shown in technical | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
locks. In a staff were on shift to carry out work at the time. | :13:29. | :13:34. | |
A 49-year-old man is to appear before the High Court next month, | :13:35. | :13:38. | |
charged with the murder of a schoolgirl more than 27 years ago. | :13:39. | :13:41. | |
The body of 16-year-old Elaine Doyle was found close to her home in | :13:42. | :13:44. | |
Greenock in June 1986. It's the first case to come to court after an | :13:45. | :13:48. | |
investigation by the Crown Office Cold Case Review Unit, which was set | :13:49. | :13:52. | |
up three years ago. The extra business rates levy on | :13:53. | :13:55. | |
larger shops selling alcohol and tobacco is to stop after 2015. The | :13:56. | :13:59. | |
Scottish Government said it had always been intended to last three | :14:00. | :14:03. | |
years. The tax has raised ?95 million from supermarkets as a means | :14:04. | :14:06. | |
of funding public health measures. The Scottish Retail Consortium said | :14:07. | :14:10. | |
it was delighted there would be no extension or replacement. | :14:11. | :14:15. | |
Refugees and asylum seekers from the world's trouble spots often arrive | :14:16. | :14:19. | |
in Scotland unable to speak English. But a language course at a college | :14:20. | :14:22. | |
in Glasgow has been specially designed for them. Some are now | :14:23. | :14:26. | |
studying for qualifications along with Scottish students, or even at | :14:27. | :14:29. | |
university. Our education correspondent, Jamie McIvor, | :14:30. | :14:36. | |
reports. This student -- these students came | :14:37. | :14:45. | |
to Scotland to escape unrest in the Ivory Coast. They spoke no English | :14:46. | :14:48. | |
when they came here but barely two years later they have no trouble | :14:49. | :14:53. | |
holding a conversation. One reason for this is a special course they | :14:54. | :14:59. | |
took. In the beginning it is really difficult to understand what they | :15:00. | :15:04. | |
teach to you so I was obliged to work really hard. Now I can relax. | :15:05. | :15:13. | |
Since we are living in the country, we have to learn, because if you do | :15:14. | :15:17. | |
not learn, there is nothing you can do without the language. You cannot | :15:18. | :15:26. | |
do anything if you do not understand the language. The language course | :15:27. | :15:31. | |
they went to is unique in Scotland. It is especially designed for young | :15:32. | :15:34. | |
people who come here in sometimes desperate circumstances. Some young | :15:35. | :15:40. | |
people may have been trafficked, tortured and there is a wide range, | :15:41. | :15:48. | |
wherever there are trouble spots in the world this is where these people | :15:49. | :15:54. | |
come from. The students in the current class and have a variety of | :15:55. | :15:57. | |
mother tongues but are all taught together. Most of the people on the | :15:58. | :16:03. | |
scores have either had very fractured or no education | :16:04. | :16:07. | |
whatsoever, and so that presents a particular problem in that they are | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
not used to be in education, or their education has been disrupted. | :16:13. | :16:16. | |
They often have experienced great trauma. They have experienced loss | :16:17. | :16:19. | |
because they have lost their families, their homes, so that | :16:20. | :16:24. | |
presents particular challenges in teaching them, in terms of | :16:25. | :16:30. | |
sensitivity and materials. The students from the Ivory Coast are | :16:31. | :16:34. | |
now at college alongside other students. Other students from the | :16:35. | :16:38. | |
course have now gone on to university. | :16:39. | :16:43. | |
Let's take a look at some other stories from across Scotland. | :16:44. | :16:49. | |
Police are appealing for witnesses to a crash on the A9 which injured | :16:50. | :16:54. | |
five men, one critically. The collision between a lorry and a car | :16:55. | :16:58. | |
happened just after midnight near the village of Dalwhinnie. A man is | :16:59. | :17:03. | |
being treated in hospital in Dundee. The event was closed for eight | :17:04. | :17:09. | |
hours. Glasgow Kelvin Colleges City Campus | :17:10. | :17:16. | |
has been closed and more insightful two days after a burst water main | :17:17. | :17:21. | |
flooding in the streets. A man who held two shop workers | :17:22. | :17:28. | |
hostage at knife-point in a three hour siege last August has been | :17:29. | :17:32. | |
jailed for six years. Peter Boyd admitted charges of abduction and | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
robbery. The High Court in Glasgow heard that Peter Boyd was draped in | :17:38. | :17:41. | |
a union flag and originally claimed to be protesting against Catholics | :17:42. | :17:46. | |
marching through a Protestant area of Belfast. | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
Later, he changed this and claimed to be upset by the impending | :17:50. | :17:54. | |
anniversary of his mother's death. Boyd has since apologised to the two | :17:55. | :17:59. | |
women he held up. In Orkney, pupils have been getting their first day of | :18:00. | :18:03. | |
lessons at the more grammar school. It is the final and largest element | :18:04. | :18:10. | |
in a ?50 million infrastructure investment in the island. It has | :18:11. | :18:16. | |
some two new schools and a theatre, amongst other things. | :18:17. | :18:21. | |
All the latest can be found on the website. | :18:22. | :18:26. | |
Scientists have discovered that one of Britain's rarest breeding birds | :18:27. | :18:29. | |
flew an extraordinary distance from its home in Shetland to winter in | :18:30. | :18:40. | |
the Pacific. The red necked phalarope, you might | :18:41. | :18:44. | |
not have heard of them but these little birds have a big story to | :18:45. | :18:50. | |
tell. There is a tag. It is buried in his back feathers. That has been | :18:51. | :18:56. | |
working all winter. We do not know where he has been. Hopefully we | :18:57. | :19:04. | |
will. Slipping behind this. We release the tag from his back. He | :19:05. | :19:11. | |
carries it like a little rucksack. And this is the very tag which has | :19:12. | :19:15. | |
given conservationists a remarkable insight into the journey the birds | :19:16. | :19:20. | |
and each year when they leave Shetland at the end of the breeding | :19:21. | :19:28. | |
season. When I heard what this word took only fell off my seat. I had to | :19:29. | :19:36. | |
read the e-mail three times. When he left Shetland he headed West, | :19:37. | :19:40. | |
straight across the North Atlantic via Iceland and Greenland. He went | :19:41. | :19:44. | |
down the eastern seaboard of North America and the Caribbean, crossed | :19:45. | :19:49. | |
into the Pacific, where he wanted in the warm waters of Ecuador and Peru | :19:50. | :19:53. | |
before returning more or less on the same route back. That is one of the | :19:54. | :19:59. | |
world's great migrations. And consider this, the individual bird | :20:00. | :20:05. | |
which travelled all that way flew into the wind. Truly an incredible | :20:06. | :20:06. | |
journey. What a great story. Now the sport. | :20:07. | :20:28. | |
Hearts are asking the leak to stop the transfer embargo based in health | :20:29. | :20:32. | |
and safety. Administrator Bryan Jackson wants special dispensation, | :20:33. | :20:40. | |
but the appeal is destined to fail. Gary prepares his seventh squad. | :20:41. | :20:46. | |
This weekend they are looking to end a run of nine games without a win. | :20:47. | :20:51. | |
The manager knows at once to lift a signing and long shot but says the | :20:52. | :20:55. | |
situation is taking its toll on his players. You elaborate and fun to | :20:56. | :21:01. | |
try to give them a best at the right time. -- you are worried and want to | :21:02. | :21:10. | |
give them a rest at the right time. After 20 games, I was taken out of | :21:11. | :21:16. | |
the team because I needed a rest, when I was that age. The | :21:17. | :21:22. | |
administrator here is using that as part of your argument to have the | :21:23. | :21:26. | |
ban lifted. At least one of the young team is not concerned, though. | :21:27. | :21:32. | |
I think the more we play, the more experience we are going to get. At a | :21:33. | :21:36. | |
younger age it is much better because in five years' time we will | :21:37. | :21:43. | |
be more experienced. And despite Google expressed today by Hearts' | :21:44. | :21:51. | |
closest rivals, the appeal will be in vain. Bryan Jackson admits | :21:52. | :21:54. | |
himself he is unlikely to succeed. In fact, there is no chance of | :21:55. | :22:00. | |
success because overturning the ban would require a rule change and that | :22:01. | :22:07. | |
could lead to a legal challenge by other clubs. Even if Hearts tried to | :22:08. | :22:12. | |
use the exceptional circumstances" and that there is also an FA imposed | :22:13. | :22:17. | |
embargo date will not be overcome, which meant the young squad will | :22:18. | :22:21. | |
have to battle on, we were otherwise. | :22:22. | :22:27. | |
Scottish athlete Eilish McColgan believes her coach gives her a | :22:28. | :22:30. | |
greater advantage over her rivals. Why? Her cage is a former god | :22:31. | :22:40. | |
medallist, but she's also her mum. Plenty of memories for men to share. | :22:41. | :22:52. | |
COMMENTATOR: What a great moment for this girl! And brilliant | :22:53. | :22:56. | |
Commonwealth gold in Edinburgh in 1986 is certainly one to cherish. It | :22:57. | :23:02. | |
was the start of my career in athletics, really. I got my name out | :23:03. | :23:10. | |
there and people who I was. Eilish is hoping to create special memories | :23:11. | :23:13. | |
of her endless summer in Glasgow and has the ideal coach coaching her | :23:14. | :23:20. | |
mother. She is an athlete who has been there and done it and got all | :23:21. | :23:25. | |
the medals that I want to achieve. I have an advantage on other people | :23:26. | :23:29. | |
who do not have that knowledge from their coach. A lot of a louche's | :23:30. | :23:36. | |
training takes place here in Loughborough in England, at a | :23:37. | :23:41. | |
university now for its sports facilities. -- Eilish's training. It | :23:42. | :23:52. | |
changes your blood constitution. It gives you know what blood cells | :23:53. | :23:55. | |
which carry oxygen around your body, so it is kind of what the | :23:56. | :24:01. | |
Africans are poorly with, and we are trying to keep up with them. After | :24:02. | :24:05. | |
training, there is always time for nostalgia. Yes, the 1980s haircut is | :24:06. | :24:16. | |
so not Glasgow 2014. More stories in Scottish sport: | :24:17. | :24:20. | |
Inverness manager John "Yogi" Hughes wants former Hibs player Russell | :24:21. | :24:24. | |
Latapy to be his assistant. Latapy played under Hughes at Falkirk. | :24:25. | :24:29. | |
Terry Butcher has told four players - Rowan Vine, Tom Taiwo, Tim Clancy | :24:30. | :24:33. | |
and Kevin Thomson - they're surplus to requirements at Hibs. | :24:34. | :24:42. | |
Of course it is difficult. It is not nice to tell people that. | :24:43. | :24:47. | |
Conor Newton has extended his deal with St Mirren. The midfielder, | :24:48. | :24:50. | |
who's on loan from Newcastle, is staying with the Buddies until the | :24:51. | :24:54. | |
end of the season. Colin Montgomery is three strokes | :24:55. | :24:57. | |
behind leader Raphael Jacquelin in the Volvo Champions golf in South | :24:58. | :25:00. | |
Africa, this shot one of the highlights of his two under-par | :25:01. | :25:07. | |
opening round. It's a Tay Bridge derby | :25:08. | :25:09. | |
double-header in ice hockey this weekend - Dundee All Stars playing | :25:10. | :25:13. | |
Fife Fliers twice in the British Elite League. Fife are bottom, | :25:14. | :25:19. | |
Dundee second top. Dundee are flying high. People have been waiting for | :25:20. | :25:29. | |
them to fall or fail all year. We want to keep our play-off hopes | :25:30. | :25:31. | |
alive. Gillian Cooke from Edinburgh's | :25:32. | :25:34. | |
boosted her chances of making the GB bobsleigh team for the Winter | :25:35. | :25:36. | |
Olympics. She and Victoria Olaoye finished third at the Europa Cup in | :25:37. | :25:39. | |
Austria. And there are more sports stories, | :25:40. | :25:42. | |
plus all the latest news, 24 hours a day, on BBC Sport Scotland's | :25:43. | :25:44. | |
website. Enough of the very volatile weather | :25:45. | :26:03. | |
we have seen since the start of winter. It is a quiet spell of | :26:04. | :26:10. | |
weather. Still a you shove this evening across western and most | :26:11. | :26:13. | |
parts but the showers becoming fewer and lighter as the night progresses. | :26:14. | :26:18. | |
Clear spells and a fairly widespread frost across parts of the East. | :26:19. | :26:25. | |
Possibly a risk advice as well. Temperatures down to freezing if not | :26:26. | :26:30. | |
below across eastern parts of the country. -- a risk of ice. Tonight, | :26:31. | :26:38. | |
Stargazing Live at a claim on BBC Two, and we have perfect conditions | :26:39. | :26:48. | |
for stargazing. Tomorrow morning start of largely dry and bright. | :26:49. | :26:53. | |
Then hired thickening up, outbreaks of rain pushing in across Western | :26:54. | :26:57. | |
Scotland. -- then cloud thickening up. Can the afternoon, we will still | :26:58. | :27:05. | |
see some rain across the South West corner. But already brighter | :27:06. | :27:13. | |
conditions feeding in. Even some sunshine. A few showers, including | :27:14. | :27:20. | |
in the North West. It is quite a nice day in Shetland. The event will | :27:21. | :27:25. | |
be light. Holding onto dry conditions until about dusk across | :27:26. | :27:31. | |
the North Eastern corner. At the rain moves across the country during | :27:32. | :27:34. | |
because of the afternoon, with the southerly wind picking up as well. | :27:35. | :27:41. | |
-- during the course of the afternoon. So for the weekend, high | :27:42. | :27:46. | |
pressure building in and settling down. Saturday and Sunday we will | :27:47. | :27:53. | |
see some water and showers across western parts, though, and snow | :27:54. | :27:59. | |
possibly even to low levels. But a lot of dry weather, but it will be | :28:00. | :28:00. | |
called. A court has heard that a man on | :28:01. | :28:10. | |
trial for murdering his mother told the local shopkeeper he thought he | :28:11. | :28:15. | |
was evil and heard voices in his head. I am back at 8pm and just | :28:16. | :28:21. | |
after the main ten o'clock news. Goodbye. | :28:22. | :28:24. |
