soon. That is all from the BBC News at Six, goodbye from me. On BBC One | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Tonight, on Reporting Scotland: Eleven hours on a hospital trolley. | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
That's how long Ian Convery waited in Aberdeen Royal Infirmary before | :00:10. | :00:22. | |
he died. I just want my man back. At the end of the day, that is all I | :00:23. | :00:27. | |
wanted. Now the hospital is told they were at fault. | :00:28. | :00:31. | |
Also on the programme, Concerns for the future of Scotland's economy as | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
MSPs hear competing views on business prospects under | :00:35. | :00:36. | |
independence. Care or cruelty? The debate over the | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
docking of working dog's tails goes to Parliament. | :00:41. | :00:47. | |
The Commonwealth Champion who boxed for Scotland, after he fought for | :00:48. | :00:50. | |
England. And former Rangers director Dave | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
King warns fans not to buy season tickets. | :00:54. | :01:07. | |
A woman who has won her fight against an Aberdeen hospital after | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
her husband died following an eleven hour trolley wait says she is | :01:13. | :01:19. | |
elated, but it won't bring him back. The health ombudsman has severely | :01:20. | :01:21. | |
criticised Aberdeen Royal Infirmary after investigating the death of Ian | :01:22. | :01:28. | |
Convery. It said he was not properly cared for, and has recommended | :01:29. | :01:32. | |
changes to avoid a repeat of the tragedy. Our health correspondent | :01:33. | :01:36. | |
Eleanor Bradford reports. Sandra suffers from emphysema. Her | :01:37. | :01:44. | |
husband Ian, known as William, was her carer. But he spent 11 hours on | :01:45. | :01:51. | |
a trolley in Aberdeen Royal infirmary waiting on an assessment. | :01:52. | :01:59. | |
All day and all night he waited. They can dress it up anyway they | :02:00. | :02:05. | |
like. He phoned me every hour. The hospital say that his treatment | :02:06. | :02:09. | |
would have been the same had he been on a ward. The ombudsman disagreed. | :02:10. | :02:17. | |
I have never slept properly since it happened. I don't think I ever | :02:18. | :02:25. | |
will. I just want my man back. That's all I wanted. I didn't get | :02:26. | :02:36. | |
it. He's not ever coming back. Mr Convery was admitted at a time when | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
a what the people were injuring long waits. -- a lot of people. Since | :02:41. | :02:51. | |
then the NHS performance has improved, although this winter has | :02:52. | :02:57. | |
not seen the same pressure on beds. It comes a day after the outgoing | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
president of the Royal College of physicians in Edinburgh warned that | :03:03. | :03:08. | |
staff face intolerable Russia. -- pressure. The key thing is about | :03:09. | :03:16. | |
care and compassion. Whatever problems there are with logistics we | :03:17. | :03:21. | |
must focus on people. Listening to their problems and responding. It | :03:22. | :03:28. | |
was a nurse who told Mrs Convery to complain. A member of staff with a | :03:29. | :03:34. | |
conscience forcing the bureaucracy to recognise failings. | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
The boss of a Scots-based global energy company has warned of the | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
dangers of a currency union with the rest of the UK under independence. | :03:42. | :03:44. | |
Giving evidence to MSPs Rupert Soames said Scotland could be tied | :03:45. | :03:47. | |
up in terms of tax and spending levels it would be allowed to set. | :03:48. | :03:51. | |
But his warning was contested by other industry leaders who said the | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
country would thrive. Here's our political editor Brian Taylor. | :03:56. | :04:04. | |
This generator company is based in Dumbarton, a local business | :04:05. | :04:10. | |
attracting big-name attention. The boss is the grandson of Winston | :04:11. | :04:16. | |
Churchill. He said that a currency union would mean tight controls | :04:17. | :04:23. | |
imposed in Scotland from London. It would be far from sensible to enter | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
into a currency union without Scotland without tying it up tighter | :04:28. | :04:41. | |
than a keeper. -- kipper. It gives investors a lot of concern, the | :04:42. | :04:48. | |
uncertainty. It has put a few projects that I have been looking at | :04:49. | :04:55. | |
on hold for the time being. Robert Kilgour said he backed more | :04:56. | :05:01. | |
taxpayers for Holyrood and urged the Better Together campaign to draw up | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
a plan, so far without success. Better Together say that is for | :05:07. | :05:14. | |
individual parties. This company trades worldwide and the boss said | :05:15. | :05:18. | |
that a currency union made sense whilst still leaving plenty of scope | :05:19. | :05:25. | |
for growing the economy. It gives you plenty of freedom for | :05:26. | :05:28. | |
flexibility to design fiscal policies are stimulating business | :05:29. | :05:30. | |
growth and attracting business to Scotland. For me, it is not an | :05:31. | :05:41. | |
issue. A property developer said that some companies simply resist | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
change and makes futures. He did not encounter uncertainty amongst | :05:47. | :05:51. | |
business contact. I speak to these guys every day. I do not see, from | :05:52. | :05:59. | |
my heart, I do not see a great deal of concern. If this mess is divided, | :06:00. | :06:08. | |
so our MSPs. There will not be a formal report from this hearing, it | :06:09. | :06:13. | |
would be futile to seek a common line from the committee. But this | :06:14. | :06:19. | |
was still a valid and valuable contribution to the debate. | :06:20. | :06:28. | |
A minister in the Scottish Cabinet has ruled out of an official | :06:29. | :06:32. | |
overseas visit on the eve of a controversial vote. This is not just | :06:33. | :06:39. | |
a change of mind but some potential political manoeuvring. | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
The controversy is about corroboration. They plan to remove | :06:45. | :06:50. | |
the general requirement for it in criminal cases. That is when | :06:51. | :06:56. | |
evidence comes from two or more separate sources. That is | :06:57. | :07:01. | |
controversial and has met with widespread legal establishment | :07:02. | :07:04. | |
opposition although the police, prosecutors, and the scripts support | :07:05. | :07:14. | |
it. -- victims groups. But the government have been asked to think | :07:15. | :07:17. | |
again and the suggestion made that it should be removed from the cruel | :07:18. | :07:20. | |
justice bill being voted on tomorrow. -- criminal justice. | :07:21. | :07:30. | |
How close will the vote be? The government is sufficiently | :07:31. | :07:37. | |
worried about its majority to ensure that everybody on its side of the | :07:38. | :07:40. | |
argument who can be heard, will be here. Fiona Hyslop was due to be on | :07:41. | :07:49. | |
an official visit to Poland. She will still go at some point but | :07:50. | :07:52. | |
tomorrow she will be here in the chamber to take part in that vote. | :07:53. | :07:59. | |
It is likely they will get their way, the government, but further | :08:00. | :08:05. | |
opens ahead on this issue when it goes back to further scrutiny with | :08:06. | :08:12. | |
the Justice committee. -- further problems. | :08:13. | :08:17. | |
You're watching Reporting Scotland from the BBC. Still to come on | :08:18. | :08:20. | |
tonight's programme, calls for the end of the ban on the controversial | :08:21. | :08:24. | |
issue of docking working dogs' tails. | :08:25. | :08:27. | |
In sport: Rangers supporters are urged not to buy season tickets by a | :08:28. | :08:32. | |
former director. We'll tell you why. And how this show stopping goal | :08:33. | :08:35. | |
stopped Celtic in their tracks. That and more, later. | :08:36. | :08:42. | |
Scottish newspapers are fighting back against the continuing decline | :08:43. | :08:44. | |
in sales of their print editions, with claims that a rise in the | :08:45. | :08:48. | |
number of online readers is reaping rich rewards. The latest circulation | :08:49. | :08:54. | |
figures were issued today. Our business and economy editor, Douglas | :08:55. | :08:57. | |
Fraser is here to talk us through them. | :08:58. | :09:00. | |
In the past decade, British daily newspapers have fallen 38%. Sunday | :09:01. | :09:06. | |
papers by nearly half. And these titles, based in Scotland, down by | :09:07. | :09:10. | |
more than half. Today, an update on circulation of city and local | :09:11. | :09:13. | |
papers, showed only three Scottish papers seeing a rise in sales, in | :09:14. | :09:17. | |
the south of Scotland and Ayrshire. Evening papers saw sales fall most | :09:18. | :09:20. | |
sharply, Glasgow's Evening Times by 16%. Among morning titles, the | :09:21. | :09:25. | |
decline was less steep for the Courier in Dundee, down five %, the | :09:26. | :09:31. | |
Press and Journal down 4%. The Scotsman is an influential national | :09:32. | :09:34. | |
institution, but printing fewer than 30,000 papers each day, so it's been | :09:35. | :09:40. | |
shedding journalists. It's big news but no surprise that reading habits | :09:41. | :09:44. | |
are changing. The Scotsman, for instance, has built its readership | :09:45. | :09:47. | |
online to 2.6 million users each month. | :09:48. | :09:59. | |
Whereas cover prices have risen steeply, there is the appeal of free | :10:00. | :10:02. | |
content online, and that is where readers go. I get it through | :10:03. | :10:10. | |
Twitter. Mainly. I have not bought a newspaper for four years. The first | :10:11. | :10:17. | |
thing I do when I get up is turn on the television and get the news. I | :10:18. | :10:25. | |
don't bother with newspapers at all. Local, but not national. It has | :10:26. | :10:33. | |
become easier, I think, to just find what you need online. It saves the | :10:34. | :10:38. | |
hassle of going and buying newspapers or magazines or whatever. | :10:39. | :10:44. | |
Print sales are down at the Herald but online readership is at 1.5 | :10:45. | :10:53. | |
million every month, up two thirds. They charge access for content and | :10:54. | :10:56. | |
the paper's boss says that is now driving revenue. 40% of our profits | :10:57. | :11:09. | |
were purely online. There is a business model, there is light at | :11:10. | :11:12. | |
the end of the tunnel. While the Herald charges for online | :11:13. | :11:15. | |
articles, the Scotsman doesn't. Its emphasis is on building | :11:16. | :11:17. | |
subscriptions for the paper. Also free to use, the Daily Mail online | :11:18. | :11:21. | |
is now the world leader, reaching 189 million readers a month. With | :11:22. | :11:25. | |
far less revenue from having those browsers than readers of print, it's | :11:26. | :11:29. | |
far from clear how newspapers can successfully make the difficult | :11:30. | :11:42. | |
transition away from print. 78 staff at the Hamilton School in | :11:43. | :11:49. | |
Aberdeen have been made redundant by liquidators amidst serious concerns | :11:50. | :11:51. | |
about the safety and well-being of children. | :11:52. | :11:56. | |
The liquidators, KPMG, said the directors of the company concluded | :11:57. | :11:59. | |
the school was no longer viable as a business. | :12:00. | :12:05. | |
Gamekeepers in Scotland are stepping up their campaign to end the ban on | :12:06. | :12:08. | |
docking working dogs' tails. They say many animals suffer agonising | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
tail injuries while working in thick undergrowth and some need to have | :12:12. | :12:14. | |
their tails amputated. Campaigners have handed a petition to the | :12:15. | :12:17. | |
Scottish Parliament calling for the law to be reviewed. But animal | :12:18. | :12:20. | |
charities say the docking of tails causes pain and distress. Craig | :12:21. | :12:27. | |
Anderson reports. It was a day when part of the country came to town. | :12:28. | :12:33. | |
Delivering a message to environment Minister, Richard Lochhead. These | :12:34. | :12:39. | |
dogs are doing just what comes naturally to Spaniel is. Scampering | :12:40. | :12:43. | |
through the undergrowth, trying to flush out birds. The gamekeepers say | :12:44. | :12:50. | |
that because of their long tails they stand far more chance of | :12:51. | :12:55. | |
injuries and that blocking the tales of small puppies at an early age is | :12:56. | :12:59. | |
a much better thing for animal welfare than trying to cope with | :13:00. | :13:02. | |
those injuries when the dogs are older. Docking. He is generally a | :13:03. | :13:12. | |
happy lad. As soon as the dog gets into bramble or The Hawthorns, any | :13:13. | :13:18. | |
kind of thick cover, his tale is still on the go, it splits on the | :13:19. | :13:27. | |
end. That is the biggest problem. A blanket ban was imposed seven years | :13:28. | :13:31. | |
ago but in the rest of the UK working dogs were exempt. There are | :13:32. | :13:36. | |
stories of owners simply heading to England to buy puppies with tales | :13:37. | :13:44. | |
already legally shortened. The prolonged agony that they are | :13:45. | :13:49. | |
suffering before the amputation and after the amputation, it leads to | :13:50. | :13:54. | |
months of suffering. It is bad legislation which needs changed. But | :13:55. | :14:00. | |
attempts to overturn the legislation is still opposed by animal welfare | :14:01. | :14:06. | |
groups. We are welfare organisation and don't want to see any animal | :14:07. | :14:09. | |
suffering but this is a very big step. We need scientific and | :14:10. | :14:16. | |
veterinary evidence. There is new research into the issue by the | :14:17. | :14:20. | |
University of Glasgow, campaigners wanted published and the findings | :14:21. | :14:23. | |
used by the government to exempt working dogs from the ban. | :14:24. | :14:31. | |
A deal has been reached to settle a long-running dispute about equal pay | :14:32. | :14:38. | |
at a Scottish council. The dispute was over former staff at South | :14:39. | :14:40. | |
Fleischer Council were earning less than men incompatible but different | :14:41. | :14:45. | |
jobs. Lawyers campaigning on their behalf so they will contact each of | :14:46. | :14:48. | |
the claimant personally to explain what the deal means. | :14:49. | :14:53. | |
Some other stories from across the country: three months after the | :14:54. | :14:59. | |
fatal crash of its helicopter with the loss of ten lives, police | :15:00. | :15:03. | |
Scotland are considering using fixed wing aircraft in addition to the | :15:04. | :15:08. | |
current helicopter. Stephen Howes told the Scottish police authority | :15:09. | :15:11. | |
that air support was already an deployed more widely. It has been | :15:12. | :15:17. | |
involved in the recovery of over 100 Singh persons. -- missing. I do not | :15:18. | :15:24. | |
want the misapprehension that it only does operations in the West and | :15:25. | :15:28. | |
occasionally gulls elsewhere. That is not the case. A Church of | :15:29. | :15:36. | |
Scotland report suggest people will not base their vote in the | :15:37. | :15:38. | |
independence referendum on whether or not they would be better off. In | :15:39. | :15:45. | |
a consultation involving 900 people issues such as social justice and | :15:46. | :15:48. | |
fairness came out this great priorities than the pound. The Kirk | :15:49. | :15:52. | |
is calling on politicians to widen the debate. | :15:53. | :15:57. | |
For L Williams and Calvin Harris will perform at the T in the Park | :15:58. | :16:02. | |
music Festival. They will share the bill with the Arctic monkeys. It | :16:03. | :16:11. | |
will take place near Kinross from July 11-13. All that is happening at | :16:12. | :16:20. | |
the moment is a great old classic acts like pixies, the Mannix, and | :16:21. | :16:24. | |
electronic music through to rock music. Some great pop acts as well. | :16:25. | :16:36. | |
It is a wide smorgasbord. All the sports using just a minute. | :16:37. | :16:38. | |
But with countdown to the Commonwealth Games just underway we | :16:39. | :16:44. | |
had been talking distance got to have tasted success of the event and | :16:45. | :16:48. | |
the years. Nick Mactaggart won Commonwealth gold and silver. But | :16:49. | :16:57. | |
before that he fought for England. Scotland has a long tradition of | :16:58. | :17:01. | |
successful amateur boxers. Gold that was for 21-year-old Dick McTaggart. | :17:02. | :17:06. | |
Dick McTaggart has been described as the best. He is one of six boxing | :17:07. | :17:14. | |
brothers from Dundee. This is the favoured medal? 1956, yes. Olympic | :17:15. | :17:26. | |
Games. His Olympic gold medal may be his most prized medal but two years | :17:27. | :17:32. | |
later came another proud moment. This is the gold from the | :17:33. | :17:34. | |
Commonwealth Games and the first time you fought for Scotland | :17:35. | :17:40. | |
internationally. 1958I boxed for Scotland for the first time. Before | :17:41. | :17:46. | |
that, you were boxing for England. Yes. I had a great time boxing for | :17:47. | :17:54. | |
England, I was team captain. McTaggart represented England for | :17:55. | :17:59. | |
five years while in the RAF and his switch to Scotland was obviously a | :18:00. | :18:02. | |
success but competing in his first Scottish Championships under way to | :18:03. | :18:07. | |
the 1958 Commonwealth Games, some were not convinced. The first time | :18:08. | :18:13. | |
ever in the Scottish Championships they booed me. There were more | :18:14. | :18:20. | |
fights outside. And again in a Scotland vest? Yes. They put this | :18:21. | :18:33. | |
boy's hand up. And he fainted. A lot of boxers win Olympic and | :18:34. | :18:35. | |
Commonwealth title than the next progression is to turn professional. | :18:36. | :18:40. | |
You never did. Want make money quick. Were you ever tempted? I was | :18:41. | :18:48. | |
offered a lot of money to turn professional. But I was never | :18:49. | :18:56. | |
tempted. Let's find out the latest from the world of sport. | :18:57. | :19:02. | |
Rangers fans are this evening being urged not to buy season tickets for | :19:03. | :19:05. | |
next season. Former Ibrox director Dave King says that until the club | :19:06. | :19:08. | |
is run more transparently, ticket money should be withheld. Our | :19:09. | :19:14. | |
reporter is at Ibrox. Phil, what's behind this move from Mr King? | :19:15. | :19:23. | |
Well, Dave King of course is well known to Rangers fans. The former | :19:24. | :19:26. | |
director invested ?20 million into the club during the David Murray | :19:27. | :19:29. | |
era. Increasingly though, he has been a critic of how the club is | :19:30. | :19:33. | |
being run and this afternoon showed that in no uncertain terms. He says | :19:34. | :19:37. | |
that that recent assurances the Rangers board gave about the clubs | :19:38. | :19:41. | |
finances "were untrue". And that the recent ?1.5 million loan from | :19:42. | :19:44. | |
Rangers chairman Sandy Easdale and biggest single shareholder in Laxey | :19:45. | :19:47. | |
partners "indicate the desperate financial position the club is in." | :19:48. | :19:56. | |
Why is all this important? Rangers' latest financial accounts show that | :19:57. | :20:00. | |
season ticket sales for this season generated ?4.5 million. That is | :20:01. | :20:03. | |
significant for Rangers at this moment. King says fans should not | :20:04. | :20:08. | |
buy tickets for next season unless the money is then released to the | :20:09. | :20:13. | |
club on a "pay-per-play" basis. He also wants the fans to be | :20:14. | :20:17. | |
represented on the Ibrox board. What are Rangers saying in response? | :20:18. | :20:21. | |
Chairman David Somers has been quick to respond. He denies that Dave King | :20:22. | :20:26. | |
has ever offered an interest-free loan but that he would be interested | :20:27. | :20:29. | |
in hearing any proposals that King may have. Perhaps that is an olive | :20:30. | :20:36. | |
branch. This evening though, it's clear we have another standoff over | :20:37. | :20:39. | |
the future direction of Rangers - one involving over ?4 million in | :20:40. | :20:48. | |
season ticket revenue. Thank you very much. | :20:49. | :20:53. | |
Celtic have fallen short of their target of going a full season | :20:54. | :20:57. | |
without losing a match in the Premiership. Aberdeen ending their | :20:58. | :21:00. | |
run of 26 games without defeat. They also brought Celtic's run of 13 | :21:01. | :21:03. | |
games without losing a goal to an end in show-stopping style, as | :21:04. | :21:11. | |
Jonathan Sutherland reports. It is Jonny Hayes. The moment Fraser | :21:12. | :21:16. | |
Forster finally conceded a league goal. He had set a new Scottish | :21:17. | :21:21. | |
record having gone over 1000 minutes without conceding. He had broken the | :21:22. | :21:26. | |
previous record set by an Aberdeen goalkeeper 43 years ago, so it was | :21:27. | :21:29. | |
fitting that this new record ended at Pittodrie. It was all to mark the | :21:30. | :21:39. | |
end of the Celtic invincible. They faced a stiff test when Virgil van | :21:40. | :21:44. | |
Dijk was sent off after 12 minutes, which infuriated Celtic manager Neil | :21:45. | :21:47. | |
Lennon. We have him done by the referee. It was not a sending-off. | :21:48. | :21:57. | |
-- we have been done. After Jonny Hayes' wonder strike, Adam Rooney | :21:58. | :22:05. | |
made it 2-0. James Forrest's strike was a mere consolation. We are | :22:06. | :22:10. | |
disappointed but we have got to go on now. We have to do as well as | :22:11. | :22:14. | |
they possibly can. The shock defeat to Martin in the League Cup earlier | :22:15. | :22:18. | |
than this season, the exit from the group stages of the Champions League | :22:19. | :22:22. | |
and defeat in the Scottish Cup to Aberdeen has taken some of the phase | :22:23. | :22:25. | |
out of the latter stages of the season for Celtic. Gone now the | :22:26. | :22:31. | |
possibility of legal invincibility. There is no if about it, all that | :22:32. | :22:35. | |
remains is the simple question of how soon Celtic can clinch the | :22:36. | :22:41. | |
domestic title? Now, a look at what else is | :22:42. | :22:44. | |
happening across Scottish sport. Dundee United midfield player John | :22:45. | :22:47. | |
Rankin has signed a new contract with the club. The 30-year-old | :22:48. | :22:50. | |
committing himself to United till the summer of 2016. | :22:51. | :22:52. | |
Inverness are three points off a place in the Premiership's top three | :22:53. | :22:56. | |
- after a 3-0 win over Ross County. Billy McKay one of three Caley | :22:57. | :22:59. | |
Thistle players to score. Steven Mclean scored twice on his | :23:00. | :23:02. | |
comeback from injury for St Johnstone, as the Saints put | :23:03. | :23:05. | |
Motherwell to the sword. Their 3-0 win reinforcing their place in the | :23:06. | :23:10. | |
top six the of the Premiership. This is former European Ryder Cup | :23:11. | :23:13. | |
captain Bernard Gallacher at his home town course in Bathgate, | :23:14. | :23:16. | |
handing over a defibrillator. He suffered heart failure last year and | :23:17. | :23:19. | |
is campaigning for more life-saving equipment at golf courses. If we can | :23:20. | :23:29. | |
save a few lives, then the campaign has been successful. | :23:30. | :23:33. | |
Andy Murray faces Portugal's Joao Sousa in the final of the Mexico | :23:34. | :23:36. | |
Open tonight. That's after coming from a set down to beat Spain's | :23:37. | :23:42. | |
Pablo Andujar in the opening round. And here's Scotland captain Scott | :23:43. | :23:45. | |
Brown again. This time modelling the national team's new away kit. You | :23:46. | :23:49. | |
can also wear it to street dance. Or just for a causal stroll along your | :23:50. | :23:52. | |
local High Street. And there are more sports stories - | :23:53. | :23:56. | |
plus all the latest news, 24 hours a day - on BBC Sport Scotland's | :23:57. | :24:01. | |
website. That is it from me. Back to you. | :24:02. | :24:09. | |
How will those strips go down? The contemporary artist Bridget | :24:10. | :24:11. | |
Reilly would like them. I think it is great. | :24:12. | :24:17. | |
Is the hat compulsory? I don't think so. | :24:18. | :24:20. | |
Time for the weather. Good evening. Today brought a | :24:21. | :24:26. | |
mixture of sunshine and showers across much of the country. For a | :24:27. | :24:30. | |
time this evening, the showers will largely die out and it will become | :24:31. | :24:34. | |
dry across the country although that will be a fairly short-lived | :24:35. | :24:38. | |
feature. We tend to see cloud increasing during the course of the | :24:39. | :24:41. | |
night, followed by this area of rain moving in from the west gradually | :24:42. | :24:46. | |
crossing the country, some fairly heavy pulses for a time in the West | :24:47. | :24:49. | |
before it becomes dry your hair towards the end of the night. | :24:50. | :24:54. | |
Accompanying the rain will be strengthening south-westerly winds, | :24:55. | :24:57. | |
perhaps touching gale force for a time along western coastal areas | :24:58. | :25:02. | |
before easing. After an earlier dipping temperatures, things will | :25:03. | :25:04. | |
recover for most of us are around four or five Celsius. Looking to | :25:05. | :25:10. | |
tomorrow morning, we continue to see this weather system moving away | :25:11. | :25:13. | |
towards the east, so it is a cloudy start for most of us with some bits | :25:14. | :25:17. | |
and pieces of rain. The rain tends to be confined to Shetland during | :25:18. | :25:21. | |
the course of the morning and elsewhere once again it is a mixture | :25:22. | :25:26. | |
of sunshine and scattered showers. Taking a closer look tomorrow | :25:27. | :25:30. | |
afternoon, for much of southern, central and eastern Scotland we are | :25:31. | :25:33. | |
looking at a fairly dry afternoon with some spells of brightness and | :25:34. | :25:38. | |
some sunshine to be found as well. Perhaps just the odd rogue shower | :25:39. | :25:41. | |
moving into more eastern areas during the afternoon, being pushed | :25:42. | :25:47. | |
along on that brisk westerly wind. For the likes of Argyll into | :25:48. | :25:51. | |
Lochaber, we will continue to see a mixture of sunshine and showers. I | :25:52. | :25:56. | |
is tomorrow of around nine Celsius at best in the sunshine. -- Heise | :25:57. | :26:04. | |
tomorrow of nine Celsius. Looking ahead towards evening in general, we | :26:05. | :26:07. | |
will continue to see some showers for a time, it will gradually turn | :26:08. | :26:12. | |
dry tomorrow night, there will be some clear spells leading to a | :26:13. | :26:16. | |
widespread frost, perhaps the risk of ice on untreated roads and | :26:17. | :26:19. | |
services and needless to say a fairly cold night to come. On | :26:20. | :26:25. | |
Friday, we start the day a cold and frosty start, some showers in the | :26:26. | :26:28. | |
West, otherwise dry and bright with some sunshine. | :26:29. | :26:30. | |
some Thank you very much for that. | :26:31. | :26:35. | |
Now, a reminder of tonight's main news. A woman has won her fight | :26:36. | :26:39. | |
against an Aberdeen hospital after her husband died following an | :26:40. | :26:41. | |
11-hour trolley wait. The health ombudsman has severely criticised | :26:42. | :26:43. | |
Aberdeen Royal Infirmary after investigating the death of Ian | :26:44. | :26:47. | |
Convery. It said he was not properly cared for. | :26:48. | :26:51. | |
The two men who murdered Fusilier Lee Rigby outside the Woolwich | :26:52. | :26:54. | |
barracks in London last year have been given life sentences. Michael | :26:55. | :26:58. | |
Adebolajo was told he will die in prison, and 22-year-old Michael | :26:59. | :27:01. | |
Adebowale will spend at least 45 years behind bars. | :27:02. | :27:06. | |
And that's Reporting Scotland. I'll be back with the headlines at eight | :27:07. | :27:10. | |
and the late bulletin just after the ten o'clock news. Until then, from | :27:11. | :27:13. | |
everyone on the team, have a very | :27:14. | :27:14. |
