Tonight, on Reporting Scotland: Plans to abolish corroboration in | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
Scots law are put on hold after the Justice Secretary bows to opposition | :00:10. | :00:13. | |
pressure. The baby ashes scandal - anger from | :00:14. | :00:16. | |
families as Edinburgh Council withholds a report into what | :00:17. | :00:20. | |
happened. Also in the programme: I think | :00:21. | :00:28. | |
everyone knows that I am very proud... | :00:29. | :00:35. | |
Andy Murray in tears again after he receives the Freedom of the City of | :00:36. | :00:41. | |
Stirling. And on St George's Day, we ask the | :00:42. | :00:44. | |
English what they think about Scotland's independence debate. | :00:45. | :01:01. | |
Controversial Scottish Government plans to abolish the need for | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
corroboration in criminal trials have been delayed. In a surprise | :01:05. | :01:12. | |
move, the Justice Secretary announced he was postponing the | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
legislation for a year to allow a review of its impact. Abolishing | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
corroboration has been criticised by political opponents and by many in | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
the justice system. Our political correspondent Glenn Campbell has | :01:23. | :01:29. | |
more. Evidence in criminal cases must | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
generally come from two or more sources. It is this a climate for | :01:34. | :01:37. | |
collaboration that is to be abolished. Two months ago, in a | :01:38. | :01:44. | |
debate, the Justice Secretary attacked Conservative and Liberal | :01:45. | :01:46. | |
Democrat and especially Labour critics for trying to block | :01:47. | :01:59. | |
abolition. It appears to be... Despite the fact they had a | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
commitment in their manifesto, despite the fact they have gone on | :02:04. | :02:09. | |
record... What a contrast with today's contribution from Mr | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
McAskill as he accepted a request from his opponents to put the | :02:14. | :02:15. | |
legislation on hold. Yellow that they came up with this | :02:16. | :02:25. | |
proposal. His decision to delay it pleasantly | :02:26. | :02:32. | |
surprised his opponents. This is a welcome position, change of | :02:33. | :02:39. | |
position. Labour say he should have given ground in February. We gave an | :02:40. | :02:45. | |
offer to work with him and he was abusive and he was insulting. The | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
decision to delay consideration of the criminal Justice Bill puts off | :02:51. | :02:58. | |
controversy until well after the independence referendum. But the | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
Scottish Government insists it remains firmly committed to | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
abolishing corroboration. I think the case has been made. It has been | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
testified to by countless thousands of victims who would be denied | :03:12. | :03:18. | |
access to justice. The retired judge is looking at what alternative | :03:19. | :03:20. | |
safeguards might replace corroboration. Abolishing this key | :03:21. | :03:26. | |
principle will only come back to Parliament once of this review has | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
completed next spring. Families affected by the Mortonhall | :03:30. | :03:32. | |
baby ashes scandal say they are furious Edinburgh Council has | :03:33. | :03:35. | |
withheld the report into what happened to their loved ones' | :03:36. | :03:41. | |
remains. Their lawyers say the delay in publishing Dame Elish Angiolini's | :03:42. | :03:43. | |
investigation into the cremation of babies at the council-run | :03:44. | :03:46. | |
institution amounts to a huge breach of trust. Hundreds of families were | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
told there'd be no ashes from their babies' cremations, but it later | :03:51. | :03:52. | |
emerged their ashes had been disposed of without their parents | :03:53. | :03:56. | |
knowledge. Morag Kinniburgh reports Andy Murray broke down in tears | :03:57. | :03:59. | |
today while accepting the freedom of his home city of Stirling. | :04:00. | :04:05. | |
Willie Reid's to-year-old daughter died years ago. The | :04:06. | :04:06. | |
Willie Reid's to-year-old daughter to anger and frustration. They | :04:07. | :04:15. | |
Willie Reid's to-year-old daughter told us it would be an independent | :04:16. | :04:18. | |
inquiry and we would be the first to know. They had nine days. | :04:19. | :04:21. | |
inquiry and we would be the first to reduction will be done to it before | :04:22. | :04:24. | |
it is given to parents. What are the lawyers doing right now? It | :04:25. | :04:30. | |
it is given to parents. What are the had told parents that there had been | :04:31. | :04:36. | |
no ashes from baby cremations. It's turned out there had been and ashes | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
were disposed of anonymously. The investigation was submitted to the | :04:42. | :04:44. | |
council at the start of last week, at parentss are waiting for answers. | :04:45. | :04:50. | |
this is a council who are responsible for having sent these | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
families to hell and back. The least you would expect is that they were | :04:54. | :04:59. | |
treated with the most basic human dignity of them informed. They have | :05:00. | :05:07. | |
had a report, they have not told anyone and the question is what is | :05:08. | :05:14. | |
their motive? Over 100 families are pursuing legal action. Most just | :05:15. | :05:18. | |
wants to know what happened to their babies remains and why. There is a | :05:19. | :05:25. | |
lot of anger and tears. Everybody is anxious. We know the report will be | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
hard-hitting and hard reading. As much as we want the report, we are | :05:30. | :05:37. | |
nervous. This evening, the council has defended the delay arguing it's | :05:38. | :05:40. | |
easy to read the report before publication. Parents and their | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
lawyers cannot understand why it would be another week before they | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
find out what went wrong. -- it will be. Andy Murray broke down in tears | :05:49. | :05:59. | |
today at a special meeting of the Council where he was given | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
Freedom of the City. He warned the pupils that he | :06:04. | :06:09. | |
emotional. The warmest of welcomes for its most | :06:10. | :06:15. | |
famous pupil. Andy Murray was there to receive the freedom of sterling | :06:16. | :06:22. | |
and was clearly moved. I think everyone knows that I am | :06:23. | :06:28. | |
very proud. Of where I come from... APPLAUSE. | :06:29. | :06:35. | |
Loved ones and close family were there, too, sharing the emotion. The | :06:36. | :06:43. | |
sport I have had from this area and Scotland has been amazing. -- the | :06:44. | :06:49. | |
support. They have always been right behind me. To get honours like this | :06:50. | :07:00. | |
is obviously very nice. From the choir, a serenade for a champion. | :07:01. | :07:15. | |
It was very emotional for him, but are very proud time for him, too. | :07:16. | :07:25. | |
For everyone, including myself. Then on to Wallace High sterling for a | :07:26. | :07:32. | |
special question and answer section. What would you say due 30 new old | :07:33. | :07:37. | |
self if you are standing here? Not to be too on myself. What did you | :07:38. | :07:47. | |
get for your mum for Mother's Day? I think I got a phone call. A teenage | :07:48. | :07:54. | |
Andy Murray used to train here, now he returns as the reigning Wimbledon | :07:55. | :08:00. | |
champion, a freeman of the city and the final part in an emotional day | :08:01. | :08:08. | |
is to get an honorary doctorates from the University here. | :08:09. | :08:14. | |
You're watching Reporting Scotland from the BBC. Still to come on | :08:15. | :08:17. | |
tonight's programme: The Scottish record label that launched the | :08:18. | :08:20. | |
careers of a host of indie bands - from its HQ in a bedroom in Glasgow. | :08:21. | :08:24. | |
And in sport - the nominations are... Gordon Strachan runs the rule | :08:25. | :08:27. | |
over the candidates for manager of the year. | :08:28. | :08:29. | |
And proud as punch. Scotland's Commonwealth Games boxing team is | :08:30. | :08:32. | |
announced. But one space is still available. Find out why. | :08:33. | :08:38. | |
It's unlikely St George, the patron saint of England, ever visited the | :08:39. | :08:45. | |
country or fought a dragon. But it's an absolute certainty that his | :08:46. | :08:49. | |
national day has never been used by politicians on both sides of the | :08:50. | :08:52. | |
border to campaign about Scottish independence - until today. Let's | :08:53. | :08:57. | |
hear first from David Cameron, who gave a special online message in | :08:58. | :09:00. | |
which he described England's role in the United Kingdom as one of its | :09:01. | :09:03. | |
greatest achievements. In five months, the people of Scotland will | :09:04. | :09:07. | |
go to the polls and they will decide whether they want to remain a part | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
of this global success story. Let's prove that we can be proud of our | :09:12. | :09:19. | |
individual nations and committed to our union of Nations, because no | :09:20. | :09:22. | |
matter how great we are alone, we will always be Better Together. | :09:23. | :09:25. | |
Later tonight, the First Minister will give a speech in Carlisle, also | :09:26. | :09:28. | |
celebrating England's national day. He explained why he's gone south of | :09:29. | :09:32. | |
the border to make the case for independence. | :09:33. | :09:35. | |
We have to find a lever and a mechanism that will draw business | :09:36. | :09:41. | |
and economic activity and make it more evenly spread. If we have a | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
strong research and Scotland -- Scottish economy, it will spill into | :09:47. | :09:55. | |
England. I will beat concentrating on transport initiatives. -- be | :09:56. | :09:58. | |
concentrated. Our political correspondent Lucy | :09:59. | :10:02. | |
Adams is with us now. Lucy, this is a bit unusual using St George's Day | :10:03. | :10:05. | |
to talk about Scotland. Yes, I think this is about the | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
referendum debate heating up south of the border. The fact is that the | :10:10. | :10:13. | |
campaigns seem to believe that the run-up to the referendum is going to | :10:14. | :10:17. | |
be more about winning hearts and less about slaying dragons. This | :10:18. | :10:23. | |
morning, David Cameron talks about the great family of nations and | :10:24. | :10:25. | |
Scotland and England's role within it. He said that since George's day | :10:26. | :10:31. | |
has been overlooked in the past and he wants to focus on the ancestry | :10:32. | :10:36. | |
and the exports from England, including Newcastle Brown ale, | :10:37. | :10:41. | |
Downton Abbey and Cornish pasties. He says that ultimately, the UK is | :10:42. | :10:44. | |
Better Together. And what else can we expect to hear | :10:45. | :10:50. | |
from Alex Salmond tonight? We know you will be speaking in Carlisle and | :10:51. | :10:54. | |
giving his own Saint George Day message. You will be talking about | :10:55. | :10:58. | |
reaching out to his pals in the North of England. Asha McKee will. | :10:59. | :11:02. | |
He is talking about improving infrastructure. | :11:03. | :11:08. | |
He will be talking about what the North of England has two game in the | :11:09. | :11:17. | |
event of independence. -- has two gain. This is about what they will | :11:18. | :11:23. | |
have to gain. He will say this is less a Saint George Day battle and | :11:24. | :11:25. | |
more competitive love bombing. The celebrations south of the border | :11:26. | :11:32. | |
aren't all about St George, as today also marks the 450th anniversary of | :11:33. | :11:35. | |
William Shakespeare's birth. So we sent our referendum correspondent | :11:36. | :11:37. | |
Laura Bicker to Stratford-upon Avon - the home of the bard - to find out | :11:38. | :11:41. | |
whether scrutiny of the Scottish play has been joined by the Scottish | :11:42. | :11:43. | |
question. A call to celebrate the birth of the | :11:44. | :11:53. | |
Bard. It is over 400 years since... Is this a dagger I see before me? | :11:54. | :12:07. | |
And his Scottish play for James the first. The focus here is on drama, | :12:08. | :12:14. | |
but the constitutional debate is largely passing them by. Although | :12:15. | :12:20. | |
they do understand some things. I think the politicians have upset | :12:21. | :12:25. | |
Scotland. I think it is difficult what to do. Can you see why they may | :12:26. | :12:31. | |
want independence? Well you have to pave your tablets, you get free | :12:32. | :12:34. | |
prescriptions, you already have a better deal. We are quite detached | :12:35. | :12:39. | |
from it and think it would affect us, but of course that is | :12:40. | :12:45. | |
from it and think it would affect Alex Smith believes the level of | :12:46. | :12:46. | |
English engagement Alex Smith believes the level of | :12:47. | :12:50. | |
referendum depends on which part of the country they live and how much | :12:51. | :12:52. | |
of a campaign they the country they live and how much | :12:53. | :12:55. | |
listening to. Too often, it seems the country they live and how much | :12:56. | :13:01. | |
have descended into whether Scott -- Scotland will | :13:02. | :13:06. | |
have descended into whether Scott -- if it is England's gift. I think | :13:07. | :13:07. | |
have descended into whether Scott -- campaign have missed an opportunity. | :13:08. | :13:13. | |
have descended into whether Scott -- Of course, people here will have no | :13:14. | :13:17. | |
part to play when it comes to the vote in September, some may watch | :13:18. | :13:22. | |
from the wings, others will want a front row seats. As for the Scottish | :13:23. | :13:28. | |
play? Yes, it is yours. But we do it here, if that is OK? The flag that | :13:29. | :13:36. | |
has marked years of record is taken down to mark England's National Day. | :13:37. | :13:41. | |
There are now five months until the finale in Scotland, until we know | :13:42. | :13:44. | |
when this could or could not be the shape of things to come. | :13:45. | :13:52. | |
School pupils are just days away from the biggest shake up in the | :13:53. | :13:55. | |
exams system for a, generation as Standard Grades are replaced by new | :13:56. | :13:58. | |
qualifications. The Scottish Government has promised that there's | :13:59. | :14:01. | |
no chance of a repeat of the exams crisis of 2000 where result. But the | :14:02. | :14:05. | |
changes are controversial and some parents and teachers remain anxious. | :14:06. | :14:09. | |
Our education correspondent Jamie McIvor reports. | :14:10. | :14:15. | |
Encouraging words for students as they prepare for their exams. A | :14:16. | :14:21. | |
reassurance for their parents. The new exams will be marked on time | :14:22. | :14:23. | |
reassurance for their parents. The the results will be out on time, | :14:24. | :14:28. | |
guaranteed. We're not talking about a new system. We are talking about | :14:29. | :14:34. | |
new content. The agency is there. It is very highly regarded. What then | :14:35. | :14:36. | |
is so different? is very highly regarded. What then | :14:37. | :14:46. | |
The actual courses are just one year long, and there have been | :14:47. | :14:49. | |
The actual courses are just one year what is taught in some subjects. | :14:50. | :14:53. | |
This is perhaps what some parents are afraid of. The examination | :14:54. | :14:59. | |
authority moved from chaos to the Malaysian... | :15:00. | :15:02. | |
Thousands got the wrong results. But the exams agency said that won't | :15:03. | :15:08. | |
happen. The markers are very ready and very | :15:09. | :15:12. | |
prepare. We have done a lot of training with them and it will be a | :15:13. | :15:17. | |
good summer. For some, the administration is not the concern, | :15:18. | :15:22. | |
it is how ready youngsters are to sit them and stresses and | :15:23. | :15:26. | |
bureaucracy for teachers. We need to look forward, but to look back at | :15:27. | :15:34. | |
what happened. I've had members report that it has been their worst | :15:35. | :15:38. | |
time ever. The exams are probably going to be dissected in a way they | :15:39. | :15:46. | |
haven't been before. Ultimately, it'll be impossible to see how | :15:47. | :15:51. | |
compared youngsters are until the results are out. But everyone has a | :15:52. | :15:54. | |
promise now that the results themselves will not go wrong. | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
A look at other stories from the across the country. | :15:59. | :16:00. | |
Edward Snowden, the intelligence whistle-blower on the run from the | :16:01. | :16:03. | |
American Government, has been installed as rector of Glasgow | :16:04. | :16:07. | |
University. The former US National Security Agency worker fled last May | :16:08. | :16:10. | |
after revealing classified details of extensive internet and phone | :16:11. | :16:16. | |
surveillance. He has temporary asylum in Russia, from where he was | :16:17. | :16:26. | |
able to address students. Unfortunately, it turns out I am | :16:27. | :16:29. | |
barred from the United Kingdom on the grounds that my presence is | :16:30. | :16:34. | |
considered detrimental to the public good. I figure shows that the | :16:35. | :16:38. | |
students of this university have a different point of view. -- I think | :16:39. | :16:43. | |
this shows. Footballers past and present have | :16:44. | :16:46. | |
joined family and friends to pay their respects to the former Dundee | :16:47. | :16:49. | |
United player Frank Kopel. The defender died last week at the age | :16:50. | :16:53. | |
of 65 - he'd been suffering from dementia. A church service to | :16:54. | :16:56. | |
celebrate his life was held in Kirriemiur. Frank Kopel made more | :16:57. | :16:59. | |
than 400 appearances for United over ten years. | :17:00. | :17:00. | |
The independent police watchdog says officers were justified in their use | :17:01. | :17:04. | |
of a taser in an incident in Dumfries in which a 55-year-old man | :17:05. | :17:07. | |
who was threatening suicide received an eye injury. It happened at the | :17:08. | :17:11. | |
end of an all-night siege of a house in the Lochside area in February. It | :17:12. | :17:14. | |
said the man's behaviour warranted using the device. | :17:15. | :17:19. | |
An Aberdeen pensioner has thanked the driver who saved his life when | :17:20. | :17:22. | |
he suffered a heart attack on board his bus. Shane Mitchell performed | :17:23. | :17:25. | |
CPR when 72-year-old Allan McLean collapsed in February. His speedy | :17:26. | :17:30. | |
response saved his life and prevented brain damage. | :17:31. | :17:43. | |
Let's round up the sports news. Who do you think should be Scottish | :17:44. | :17:58. | |
football's manager of the season? Well the four names on the players' | :17:59. | :18:01. | |
union short list were announced today. Gordon Strachan is the best | :18:02. | :18:11. | |
person to decide. Neil Lennon, Stuart McCall, Derek | :18:12. | :18:15. | |
McInnis and Tommy Wright all in the running for a manager of the year | :18:16. | :18:19. | |
and the Scotland manager full of praise. Neil Lennon has won the | :18:20. | :18:26. | |
league. It is not easy to keep a team going, keep their concentration | :18:27. | :18:29. | |
and application correct when it looks like it is easy but it is not. | :18:30. | :18:37. | |
Stuart McCall, he has lost good players and replace them. Without | :18:38. | :18:42. | |
spending any money. Phenomenal. Third in the league with chants of | :18:43. | :18:49. | |
seconds. Derek McInnis, I think, with his coaching staff and | :18:50. | :18:51. | |
players, they have Aberdeen alive again. In the morning, the place was | :18:52. | :18:59. | |
full of Aberdeen fans. Tommy Wright, he had a great start to the season. | :19:00. | :19:05. | |
Everybody sat up when they beat Rosenberg. Today was all about | :19:06. | :19:10. | |
celebrating the success of managers currently operating in Scotland and | :19:11. | :19:12. | |
less about the demise of the Scottish manager down south, David | :19:13. | :19:17. | |
Moyes at Manchester United. David will be delighted that I have got | :19:18. | :19:24. | |
nothing to say about it, because you don't want to get patronised as a | :19:25. | :19:28. | |
manager. You don't want to speak about something you don't know much | :19:29. | :19:32. | |
about. It will be relief for David to somebody to be quiet and shut | :19:33. | :19:33. | |
their mouth. to somebody to be quiet and shut | :19:34. | :19:40. | |
The Hearts player Jamie Hamill has been issued with a notice of | :19:41. | :19:43. | |
complaint for excessive misconduct by the Scottish FA. It's after | :19:44. | :19:46. | |
Hamill barged into the Ross County manager Derek Adams during the match | :19:47. | :19:49. | |
at Tynecastle on Saturday, knocking him to the ground. The hearing will | :19:50. | :19:54. | |
be on Thursday the 8th of May. Scotland's boxing team has been | :19:55. | :19:57. | |
selected for the Commonwealth Games although there is one spot still up | :19:58. | :20:01. | |
for grabs and it will be determined in dramatic fashion. Like Matt these | :20:02. | :20:06. | |
boxers have a lot to live up to. Scotland have won a boxing medal at | :20:07. | :20:11. | |
every Tom wealth games. Confidence is not in short supply here. In the | :20:12. | :20:19. | |
car also it is less than two miles from the SECC. It is life changing. | :20:20. | :20:24. | |
I am buzzing. I will train so far dance I will make sure that nobody | :20:25. | :20:29. | |
is beating me. As the boxing line-up was announced, they were not quite | :20:30. | :20:34. | |
all present and correct. One place is still up for grabs. Lewis spent | :20:35. | :20:43. | |
in beat Conor Law in the recent Scottish Championships at | :20:44. | :20:47. | |
welterweight. At the time, they thought he had done enough to make | :20:48. | :20:54. | |
Team Scotland. This is my Glasgow 2014 spot sealed. Scotland's bottom | :20:55. | :21:02. | |
authority is a points system to help select their team. They say the | :21:03. | :21:04. | |
fearless way to separate these two is with a box of. I was upset | :21:05. | :21:11. | |
because I thought after I won the Scottish I would be at the | :21:12. | :21:14. | |
Commonwealth Games. But looking at everything Boxing Scotland have | :21:15. | :21:19. | |
said, I understand the reasons for the box off and I have prepared like | :21:20. | :21:24. | |
I do for every other fight. The one of fake is this Saturday. Only then | :21:25. | :21:27. | |
will this team be complete. of fake is this Saturday. Only then | :21:28. | :21:33. | |
Now, a look at what else is happening across Scottish sport. | :21:34. | :21:37. | |
Here's Andy Murray again - this time because we asked him how his search | :21:38. | :21:39. | |
for a new coach because we asked him how his search | :21:40. | :21:43. | |
he has seven or eight candidates in mind - and still hopes to make an | :21:44. | :21:48. | |
appointment by the end of May. It is hard because there is a lot of | :21:49. | :21:51. | |
things that go into it, contracts and finances and stuff like that. I | :21:52. | :21:57. | |
don't know exactly whether it will be done before then or not. | :21:58. | :22:00. | |
Two goals from Defender Bilel Moshni keeps Rangers unbeaten record in | :22:01. | :22:05. | |
League One intact. The champions beating Ayr United 2-1 at Ibrox last | :22:06. | :22:08. | |
Scotland international stand-off Ruraidh Jackson is joining English | :22:09. | :22:12. | |
Premiership side London Wasps. His contract with Glasgow Warriors is up | :22:13. | :22:17. | |
at the end of the season. 122 athletes have now been selected | :22:18. | :22:20. | |
to represent Scotland at Glasgow 2014. As well as the boxers, the | :22:21. | :22:26. | |
wrestlers and para bowlers were announced today. I feel absolutely | :22:27. | :22:37. | |
elated. Without any shadow of a doubt, it is fantastic news. | :22:38. | :22:40. | |
And there are more sports stories - plus all the latest news, 24 hours a | :22:41. | :22:45. | |
day on BBC Sport Scotland's website. That is all for now. | :22:46. | :22:50. | |
Thank you. It was the ultimate bedroom record label - set up by two | :22:51. | :22:54. | |
friends, with the paperwork kept in a sock drawer. But Postcard Records | :22:55. | :22:58. | |
went on to launch the careers of Orange Juice and Aztec Camera. Not | :22:59. | :23:01. | |
to mention, a generation of Scottish indie bands. Thirty-five years on, a | :23:02. | :23:04. | |
book has been published about the era. Our arts correspondent Pauline | :23:05. | :23:09. | |
McLean took a tour with its author. This is the home of probably the | :23:10. | :23:12. | |
most important record label in the world. Postcard Records. This is 185 | :23:13. | :23:15. | |
West Princes Street. From these humble beginnings grew a | :23:16. | :23:21. | |
now legendary Scottish record label. Teenager Alan Horne kept the | :23:22. | :23:25. | |
paperwork in his sock drawer and ran Postcard Records from his own flat. | :23:26. | :23:35. | |
His co-creative Edwyn Collins and his band Orange Juice were probably | :23:36. | :23:41. | |
the best-known signings. One of their very first gigs was at Glasgow | :23:42. | :23:45. | |
School of Art where, according to this author, they inspired a whole | :23:46. | :23:49. | |
generation of musicians. Without Postcard Records, you would not have | :23:50. | :23:53. | |
had the whole 80s indie movement and bands like Primal Scream, Franz | :23:54. | :23:55. | |
Ferdinand, you mentioned, pretty much the whole Scottish pop scene | :23:56. | :24:04. | |
that happened in the '80s and '90s. They changed the perception of | :24:05. | :24:07. | |
Glasgow and Scottish music, not just within the city and Scotland but | :24:08. | :24:13. | |
internationally, the whole world. A lot has changed in the 35 years | :24:14. | :24:17. | |
since but this little label remains an important part of Scotland's | :24:18. | :24:21. | |
musical history. Slightly David and Goliath. It takes a lot of courage | :24:22. | :24:28. | |
to make a record in Glasgow and put the copies in the back of an Austin | :24:29. | :24:32. | |
Maxi and drive down to London and force the BBC to play it on air, | :24:33. | :24:36. | |
which is what they did. So it was a real sort of gung-ho, kind of | :24:37. | :24:45. | |
Jacobite spirit, attitude to it. Before the weather, news of a | :24:46. | :24:48. | |
special programme looking back on the life of the Independent MSP | :24:49. | :24:51. | |
Margo MacDonald who died earlier this month. | :24:52. | :24:51. | |
special programme looking back on the life of the You can see it | :24:52. | :24:54. | |
tomorrow night on BBC One Scotland at 10.35. Time for the weather and | :24:55. | :25:03. | |
Chris is at the map tonight. Good evening. It was a mixed bag of | :25:04. | :25:07. | |
whether today. In the sunshine in the Moray coast, eating degrees, but | :25:08. | :25:11. | |
in eastern parts with the low cloud, a measurable it. Fairly cloudy with | :25:12. | :25:15. | |
some rain, this is the current satellite picture and as we head | :25:16. | :25:19. | |
through towards tonight it's stays cloudy and indeed our with that rain | :25:20. | :25:24. | |
starting to pep up. It will be wet night for many central part of the | :25:25. | :25:28. | |
country but most of us will be in bed so we will not see it. Pretty | :25:29. | :25:33. | |
mild with that cloud and rain around, temperature is no lower than | :25:34. | :25:36. | |
a roundabout eight or nine Celsius and once again across the East | :25:37. | :25:40. | |
Coast, low cloud, mist and murk developing. Despite the day tomorrow | :25:41. | :25:45. | |
for eastern and northern parts of the country, cloudy and out at | :25:46. | :25:49. | |
improving, elsewhere dry but the rain continues to journey north and | :25:50. | :25:52. | |
north eastwards as we had through the day up towards the Northern | :25:53. | :25:55. | |
Isles, which means that afternoon is a case of sunshine and showers, | :25:56. | :25:58. | |
probably the best afternoon of the week. There will be showers around | :25:59. | :26:04. | |
but fairly isolated, if you catch one day will be slow-moving and | :26:05. | :26:07. | |
potentially fairly sharp. Still chilly down the east coast with the | :26:08. | :26:11. | |
low cloud but in the West and the best of the sunshine, temperatures | :26:12. | :26:15. | |
up to 16 or 17 degrees. Always the risk of one or two sharp showers. Or | :26:16. | :26:19. | |
me and Shetland are cloudy and down through the afternoon. Into the | :26:20. | :26:23. | |
evening and overnight, we hold onto those sunny skies, a pleasant end | :26:24. | :26:30. | |
today. Some late evening sunshine. On the east coast, the low cloud, | :26:31. | :26:33. | |
mist and murk really starting to form a drift inland. For the end of | :26:34. | :26:39. | |
the week, on Friday, eastern parts of the country are cloudy and damp | :26:40. | :26:42. | |
at times, further west is drier but cloudier than it will be tomorrow | :26:43. | :26:45. | |
and temperatures taking a knock as well. For the weekend, | :26:46. | :26:50. | |
disappointing. Low pressure from the in control of our weather, it means | :26:51. | :26:54. | |
unsettled conditions, cloudy at times, bands of showers and rain. | :26:55. | :26:58. | |
Edwin Fischer rose, at times there will be the odd break to spell to | :26:59. | :27:00. | |
enjoy. Hopefully. The brother of the Duchess of | :27:01. | :27:14. | |
Cornwall has died in New York in hospital following a fall. And that | :27:15. | :27:18. | |
