at Six. Actions in Ukraine | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
The Health Secretary Alex Neil survives a vote of no confidence | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
in a row with Labour over hospital services in his own constituency. | :00:09. | :00:13. | |
Family and friends of two fishermen missing off the Aberdeenshire coast | :00:14. | :00:16. | |
have spent a second day anxiously waiting for news. | :00:17. | :00:19. | |
After last week's fiasco - tickets for the commonwealth games | :00:20. | :00:22. | |
these meals help you to get well soon? | :00:23. | :00:29. | |
Why hospital food is about to get a Masterchef make-over. | :00:30. | :00:32. | |
And in sport - the battle for a place in the | :00:33. | :00:35. | |
premiership - we look ahead to the showdown between Hamilton and Hibs. | :00:36. | :00:58. | |
The Health Secretary, Alex Neil, has survived a vote | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
Labour tried to bring him down for intervening to save mental health | :01:02. | :01:06. | |
They said he put constituency politics before patients. | :01:07. | :01:10. | |
The minister insisted he had preserved services for people | :01:11. | :01:14. | |
Here's our political correspondent, Glenn Campbell. | :01:15. | :01:30. | |
#ColourYellow when Alex Neil took over he took no time in revisiting a | :01:31. | :01:42. | |
decision to close hospitals. But as the local MSP for Monklands, who | :01:43. | :01:47. | |
gotten self-selected, it he left himself open to opposition claims of | :01:48. | :01:53. | |
a conflict of influence. This led to claims for him to quit. Putting his | :01:54. | :02:02. | |
political interests before patients, guilty. Undermining health | :02:03. | :02:11. | |
professionals, guilty. The key date is that he was clear in his view | :02:12. | :02:17. | |
that acute mental health services should be retained at all three | :02:18. | :02:25. | |
Lanarkshire hospitals. Within weeks, NHS Lanarkshire confirmed it | :02:26. | :02:31. | |
was reviewing its plans in light of the cabinet secretary having | :02:32. | :02:36. | |
expressed reservations. His intervention seems to have been | :02:37. | :02:39. | |
effective. Hours after making it, he removed himself from future | :02:40. | :02:44. | |
decision-making to avoid the perception of a conflict of | :02:45. | :02:48. | |
interest. His critics say if he was right to do that then, he should | :02:49. | :02:54. | |
have done so before he sought to influence the clean decision at | :02:55. | :03:01. | |
Monklands. Although the hospital is situated in my constituency, it | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
services the whole of Lancashire, up to Wishaw, up to 10% of the entire | :03:08. | :03:13. | |
Scottish population. Mental health for the entire nation of Scotland we | :03:14. | :03:20. | |
were talking about. The First Minister defended his Health | :03:21. | :03:24. | |
Secretary during the debate. When it came to the vote... The motion is | :03:25. | :03:32. | |
therefore not carried. Relief for Alec Newell and disappointment for | :03:33. | :03:47. | |
his critics. -- Alec Neil. How damaging has this been for Alec | :03:48. | :03:53. | |
Neil? I am sure he would have preferred to be the First Minister | :03:54. | :03:58. | |
not to face an no-confidence vote. As the First Minister pointed out, | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
it was the first time this tactic had been used against somebody who | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
had intervened to save the service in the NHS. It may be that Alex Neil | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
hopes that will plea to those who voted for him in his constituency in | :04:13. | :04:19. | |
2007 and 2011 when he stood on a ticket to preserve services at | :04:20. | :04:25. | |
Monklands Hospital. There are some on his side who say this has been | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
got up by the opposition as part of a wider campaign to attack the SNP | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
ahead of the independence referendum. Worth noting it was not | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
just Labour, Conservative and Liberal Democrat who voted against | :04:38. | :04:43. | |
him today, two Green MPs also did so. Busy he has not handled himself | :04:44. | :04:49. | |
well during this affair. -- they say. Thank you very much. | :04:50. | :04:56. | |
The Church of Scotland has moved a step closer | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
to ordaining gay ministers. The Kirk's general assembly voted | :05:01. | :05:02. | |
this afternoon to allow presbyteries to debate | :05:03. | :05:04. | |
whether congregations can opt out of its traditional stance and choose | :05:05. | :05:07. | |
to appoint homosexual ministers. If the proposal passes this | :05:08. | :05:10. | |
next level of scrutiny it could become church law next summer. | :05:11. | :05:12. | |
Friends and relatives of two missing fishermen have spent | :05:13. | :05:15. | |
a second day at an Aberdeenshire harbour waiting for news. | :05:16. | :05:17. | |
75-year-old Jim Reid and his grandson David Irvine, | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
who's 35 were due to return to Gourdon harbour yesterday morning. | :05:22. | :05:23. | |
Steven Duff is there - what's the latest? | :05:24. | :05:30. | |
I think hope is all but gone of finding Jim Reid and his grandson | :05:31. | :05:40. | |
David Irvine allies. They are from a village not far from year. They left | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
from this harbour yesterday in their boat. There was a big search | :05:45. | :05:50. | |
yesterday and an even bigger search today, an RAF helicopter joined by a | :05:51. | :05:57. | |
rescue helicopter. Within the last hour and a half, the Police Scotland | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
helicopter has been in the skies above Gordoun harbour. The main part | :06:02. | :06:06. | |
of the research has been a longest coastline. Lifeboats have been going | :06:07. | :06:13. | |
up and down and also local fishing boats searching for a second day. A | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
sad sight at lunchtime when friends and relatives of the men took to the | :06:18. | :06:22. | |
rocks of the shoreline to see if there was any sign of them. There | :06:23. | :06:26. | |
have been no signs of the boat or wreckage. Conditions have been good | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
today, visibility is good, as you can see. It is likely the coastguard | :06:33. | :06:39. | |
will take a decision where to go with this search and if he will | :06:40. | :06:42. | |
continue tomorrow. Thank you. what's the latest? | :06:43. | :06:50. | |
It's been called a fiasco and a farce, | :06:51. | :06:53. | |
and it's taken over a week to fix. Extra tickets for the Commonwealth | :06:54. | :06:56. | |
Games are back on public sale. A three day phased release began | :06:57. | :06:59. | |
this morning and so far things have been going smoothly. | :07:00. | :07:02. | |
The Scottish Rugby sevens squad are now in place for the game but it was | :07:03. | :07:06. | |
only this morning that tickets to watch them went back on sale. It is | :07:07. | :07:12. | |
ten o'clock, let us try and get some tickets. Something is happening. | :07:13. | :07:25. | |
Excellent, I am in. It seems that after major false start, Glasgow | :07:26. | :07:28. | |
2014 is my contract with ticket sales. That has taken me ten | :07:29. | :07:34. | |
minutes, one happy customer, I have two tickets for the rugby sevens. | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
Organisers want to put the problems of last week behind them. There were | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
delays last October when the first batch went on sale. This time it has | :07:44. | :07:50. | |
to be right. Our commitment is to get as many people as possible to be | :07:51. | :07:55. | |
part of the schemes. We have to give a benchmark that no less than 70% of | :07:56. | :08:03. | |
every session will be ticketed for the general public. As well as rugby | :08:04. | :08:10. | |
thousands of tickets for the opening and closing ceremonies and for team | :08:11. | :08:14. | |
sports like hockey and netball. Tickets will go back on sale | :08:15. | :08:20. | |
tomorrow for every kind of session. The ticket fiasco has been a huge | :08:21. | :08:25. | |
embarrassment for organisers and with two months to go, it is one | :08:26. | :08:29. | |
headache which seems to be going away. | :08:30. | :08:37. | |
You're watching Reporting Scotland from the BBC. | :08:38. | :08:38. | |
Still to come on tonight's programme: | :08:39. | :08:40. | |
Martyn Bennett was a pioneering piper who fused traditional Highland | :08:41. | :08:43. | |
music with techno beats with spectacular results. | :08:44. | :08:45. | |
Now, almost ten years since he died of cancer | :08:46. | :08:47. | |
at the age of 33, his most famous album is being re-released and his | :08:48. | :08:51. | |
In sport - the countdown and the build up to | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
and hold on tight - we're going for a spin with | :08:56. | :09:01. | |
If you or a loved one has ever spent any time in hospital you'll have | :09:02. | :09:14. | |
a view on the food, and often it's not complimentary. | :09:15. | :09:17. | |
But now a Masterchef style competition for NHS chefs has been | :09:18. | :09:20. | |
launched in an effort to improve the standard of hospital food here. | :09:21. | :09:23. | |
Our health correspondent Eleanor Bradford has been asking | :09:24. | :09:25. | |
Orkney-based jewellery brand Ortak - which closed earlier this year with | :09:26. | :09:30. | |
the loss of around 150 jobs across the country - | :09:31. | :09:39. | |
The reception was not good on the radio this morning. The food was of | :09:40. | :09:48. | |
a poor quality. They offered to make you toast. They offered to make | :09:49. | :09:53. | |
spaghetti Bolognese and I cannot have that. It was difficult and I | :09:54. | :10:00. | |
lost a lot of weight. It is very patchy and we should try for a | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
better standard for everyone. NHS kitchens produce more than 17 | :10:05. | :10:17. | |
million -- million meals a year. Here at St John's Hospital in | :10:18. | :10:21. | |
Livingston, even the bread is baked from scratch. Chefs are frustrated | :10:22. | :10:27. | |
at the bad press. When I first worked here, I could not believe | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
what they do in this kitchen. It is unbelievable. I think a lot of | :10:32. | :10:36. | |
people say it is hospital food and therefore it will be bad. We are | :10:37. | :10:39. | |
trying to get away from people thinking that because it is not | :10:40. | :10:44. | |
true. Stephen and his colleague are entering the competition. It is | :10:45. | :10:52. | |
exciting. All the other hospitals are doing it and it is for the NHS | :10:53. | :10:57. | |
so it is exciting. We have never been in a competition with the NHS. | :10:58. | :11:02. | |
Critics say the government would be better off monitoring the standard | :11:03. | :11:06. | |
of all hospital food but the team here say the competition will | :11:07. | :11:09. | |
highlight the good rather than the bad. | :11:10. | :11:15. | |
A man cleared seven years ago of the 1977 so-called World's End | :11:16. | :11:20. | |
murders is to be retried. Last month | :11:21. | :11:22. | |
the crown was granted permission to bring a new prosecution | :11:23. | :11:24. | |
against 68-year-old Angus Sinclair under the double jeopardy law. | :11:25. | :11:27. | |
He has now been indicted for the murders | :11:28. | :11:29. | |
of 17-year-olds Christine Eadie and Helen Scott, whose bodies were found | :11:30. | :11:33. | |
after a night out at the World's End pub on Edinburgh's royal mile. | :11:34. | :11:36. | |
He's due to appear before the High Court in Edinburgh next month. | :11:37. | :11:38. | |
Six men have been arrested and charged with a variety | :11:39. | :11:40. | |
of offences alleging physical and sexual abuse at a Catholic school | :11:41. | :11:43. | |
The men, who're now in their sixties and seventies, | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
have not yet appeared in court, and police say their investigations | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
It's claimed they abused pupils at the former St Ninian's school | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
in Falkland, which was run by the Christian Brothers religious order. | :11:56. | :11:58. | |
If you or a loved one has ever spent any time in hospital you'll have | :11:59. | :12:02. | |
a view on the food, and often it's not complimentary. | :12:03. | :12:05. | |
But now a Masterchef style competition for NHS chefs has been | :12:06. | :12:09. | |
A freelance journalist based in Perth has been arrested in Kiev. | :12:10. | :12:21. | |
This amateur footage shows Graham Phillips, a freelance journalist | :12:22. | :12:27. | |
being questioned by Ukrainian soldiers at a military checkpoint. | :12:28. | :12:32. | |
He was reporting from a city in the east of the country. He was taken to | :12:33. | :12:37. | |
Kiev where he says he has been held and questioned as a spy. He had been | :12:38. | :12:48. | |
working for the pro-the broadcaster has a lot of difficulty getting some | :12:49. | :12:54. | |
of their reporters into the country because of a ban on reporters | :12:55. | :12:59. | |
getting into the country so Graham has been accessing a lot of areas | :13:00. | :13:05. | |
where reporters could not go. He has been collaborating with 13. -- with | :13:06. | :13:16. | |
our team. The Ukrainian security services said he has been held and | :13:17. | :13:22. | |
he would be released shortly. The console has no idea where he is now. | :13:23. | :13:28. | |
Orkney-based jewellery brand Ortak - which closed earlier this year with | :13:29. | :13:31. | |
the loss of around 150 jobs across the country - | :13:32. | :13:34. | |
A partnership, including some former employees of the company, | :13:35. | :13:38. | |
is hoping to restart production at the factory in Kirkwall. | :13:39. | :13:41. | |
A tidal power turbine has begun generating electricity for homes and | :13:42. | :13:44. | |
It's said to be the first community-owned tidal | :13:45. | :13:48. | |
You are producing electricity under water which is challenging. This is | :13:49. | :14:08. | |
challenging but it shows it can be done and electricity can be | :14:09. | :14:12. | |
delivered for useful purposes like for industry and also for houses. | :14:13. | :14:19. | |
Staff at Dundee University are voting | :14:20. | :14:20. | |
The university plans to cut up to 120 staff. | :14:21. | :14:25. | |
The University and College Union ballot closes | :14:26. | :14:26. | |
A former nuclear shelter in Perthshire has been sold. | :14:27. | :14:31. | |
The Cultybraggan bunker near Comrie was completed in 1990 at a cost | :14:32. | :14:34. | |
The new owner paid ?150,000, and plans to use the facility | :14:35. | :14:38. | |
Researchers say underwater noise is having an impact on marine | :14:39. | :14:45. | |
The Aberdeen University study shows that exposure to sound | :14:46. | :14:50. | |
from seismic surveys reduced the foraging activity | :14:51. | :14:57. | |
Inverness is the happiest place to live in Scotland, | :14:58. | :15:01. | |
That's according to a new survey, which asked people how proud they | :15:02. | :15:09. | |
were of their home and the friendliness of their neighbours. | :15:10. | :15:21. | |
Scotland goes to the polls tomorrow to elect members of the European | :15:22. | :15:30. | |
Parliament. Candidates are facing a tough challenge from the Greens and | :15:31. | :15:44. | |
from Utrecht. Meet the future, if the voters | :15:45. | :15:48. | |
agree. She represented Scotland in Europe for more than 20 years. This | :15:49. | :15:55. | |
woman hopes to win a third European seat for the SNP. They say an SNP | :15:56. | :16:08. | |
vote is for Scotland and against UKIP. We can be trusted to always | :16:09. | :16:16. | |
put Scotland's opinions first and we can keep UKIP out of Scotland. On | :16:17. | :16:22. | |
the stump today, Ed Balls supports Labour's Scottish Petch. Labour are | :16:23. | :16:29. | |
finding on the doorstep that politics is seldom simple. Labour | :16:30. | :16:38. | |
offers the prospect of European change. Unlike most other parties we | :16:39. | :16:43. | |
can make a difference in the Scottish Parliament because we set | :16:44. | :16:48. | |
in the second largest group and have strong policies on jobs and tax | :16:49. | :16:52. | |
evasion and sorting the banking crisis. Good policies and the | :16:53. | :16:59. | |
ability to deliver on them. The Conservatives say they would seek | :17:00. | :17:02. | |
reform of the European union then in three years' time a referendum on | :17:03. | :17:05. | |
whether Britain should quit the EU or not. Scots are concerned about | :17:06. | :17:11. | |
interference from Europe. They want far less of that and we promise a | :17:12. | :17:15. | |
change in the relationship with Europe, and then a choice enabling | :17:16. | :17:22. | |
Scots to make up their own minds. The Liberal Democrats now they face | :17:23. | :17:27. | |
a tough fight to hold rear-seat and they are fielding the big guns in | :17:28. | :17:32. | |
support of their lead candidate. We have been run on the doorsteps now | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
for the last six weeks speaking to a large number of voters they do not | :17:38. | :17:40. | |
want to see the break-up of Britain or the European Union. They want to | :17:41. | :17:46. | |
support a party putting forward a positive case for staying in | :17:47. | :17:52. | |
Britain, staying in Europe. The Greens offer the message of hope and | :17:53. | :17:57. | |
change. A vote for the Greens as a vote for the politics of hope and 40 | :17:58. | :18:04. | |
welcoming Scotland and one that stands up for a just economy for | :18:05. | :18:07. | |
everyone, and for the nation of peace. A vote for the Greens is a | :18:08. | :18:12. | |
vote for the opposite of what UKIP stands for. UKIP is the only party | :18:13. | :18:21. | |
in Scotland which wants to get out of the European Union. The | :18:22. | :18:26. | |
Conservatives promised a referendum but they will not get at this time. | :18:27. | :18:32. | |
These elections matter. The European Parliament is a powerful body | :18:33. | :18:37. | |
cluster could be pointers towards a European election and the | :18:38. | :18:40. | |
independence referendum. The ballot boxes are ready. | :18:41. | :18:46. | |
And you can find out more about tomorrow's European | :18:47. | :18:49. | |
Parliament election on our website, including a list of all the | :18:50. | :18:52. | |
A Holyrood committee has approved plans for a mandatory 5p charge | :18:53. | :19:00. | |
on carrier bags in Scotland. The campaign group Keep Scotland | :19:01. | :19:02. | |
Beautiful backed the measure, saying the money raised should go to | :19:03. | :19:05. | |
charities and environmental groups. If given final approval | :19:06. | :19:07. | |
by the full Parliament, the charge will begin this October. | :19:08. | :19:18. | |
I have no idea what that was about! Bags of excitement and anxiety | :19:19. | :19:32. | |
the charge will begin this October. Hibernian and Hamilton Academical. | :19:33. | :19:36. | |
It's the first leg of the playoff final to determine whether Hibs stay | :19:37. | :19:43. | |
in the premiership or Accies are promoted from the Championship. | :19:44. | :19:46. | |
Both teams are confident they'll come out on top but it won't be | :19:47. | :19:48. | |
for the faint of heart. ahead for the play-offs are being | :19:49. | :19:51. | |
billed as the final countdown. The build-up to the first leg is well | :19:52. | :20:00. | |
underway. Disappointed we did not go up automatically but what we have to | :20:01. | :20:05. | |
do now is grasp it with both hands. What we have to do now is these two | :20:06. | :20:13. | |
games. A metaphor of used in football to describe ultra-defensive | :20:14. | :20:19. | |
tactics, parking the boss. This red London double-decker is the only | :20:20. | :20:23. | |
parked bus you are likely to see. Our biggest strength is going for | :20:24. | :20:28. | |
broadband attacking. This is our one crack at it. We have opportunity so | :20:29. | :20:35. | |
we will not be changing tactics. Hamilton have scored 16 goals this | :20:36. | :20:39. | |
season in the championship but Hibernian have only managed 31 in | :20:40. | :20:46. | |
the championship. We know we are capable and that has to come out in | :20:47. | :20:54. | |
the next two matches. If anything we will have to calm them down and make | :20:55. | :20:57. | |
sure they are focused on the job at hand. It has come down to Fortune | :20:58. | :21:05. | |
favours the brave. We have to stand up now and be counted. | :21:06. | :21:08. | |
for the faint of heart. And you can listen to the match live | :21:09. | :21:12. | |
on BBC Radio Scotland, 810 medium wave and online. | :21:13. | :21:15. | |
Then watch the highlights at 11:05 on BBC One Scotland. | :21:16. | :21:16. | |
The man in charge of the Scotland Rugby 7's side is defending | :21:17. | :21:20. | |
the selection of players from the country's two professional fifteen | :21:21. | :21:22. | |
The squad was named today, and the head coach says he's expecting | :21:23. | :21:27. | |
the Scots to put in their best ever performance at a Commonwealth games. | :21:28. | :21:31. | |
Our Games reporter Jane Lewis has more. | :21:32. | :21:40. | |
Ibrox Stadium preparing to host the rugby, which means the arrival of | :21:41. | :21:48. | |
this lot. The Scotland rugby sevens team will be joined by another 15 | :21:49. | :21:55. | |
sites from across the Commonwealth. There are few surprises in the | :21:56. | :21:59. | |
Scotland squad, largely made up of players from the 15 aside version, | :22:00. | :22:04. | |
with only four specialists being selected. We need a mixture of power | :22:05. | :22:12. | |
and physicality. We have a squad to have lacked consistency on the world | :22:13. | :22:15. | |
stage and the one thing we need to have today is consistency, and that | :22:16. | :22:23. | |
has meant some have missed out. For Sean Lamb and it is a return to the | :22:24. | :22:30. | |
sevens game after five years. I try to get as much and as I can until | :22:31. | :22:36. | |
that day, so it is a chance to put the shirt on for Scotland and it is | :22:37. | :22:41. | |
brilliant. And for the team-mate he will make his debut in the | :22:42. | :22:47. | |
abbreviated version the summer. It is massive soil to be able to bring | :22:48. | :22:51. | |
it here to a bigger stadium and a bigger platform. Work is underway to | :22:52. | :22:56. | |
make sure Ibrox will be ready but the Petch is being made wider and | :22:57. | :22:58. | |
shorter for the rugby sevens. Now, a look at what else is | :22:59. | :23:03. | |
happening across Scottish sport. Andy Murray's calling | :23:04. | :23:06. | |
on the world's top tennis players to help fund an increase in prize money | :23:07. | :23:09. | |
at lower levels of the sport. Prize money on the Futures Circuit | :23:10. | :23:13. | |
hasn't increased since 1998. Motherwell have given fans till | :23:14. | :23:15. | |
November to prove they can make This is something that the players | :23:16. | :23:22. | |
who are playing at the top of the game have to accept and say that is | :23:23. | :23:27. | |
what we want to do, make tennis a better sport. | :23:28. | :23:29. | |
Motherwell have given fans till November to prove they can make | :23:30. | :23:34. | |
Fans must raise ?800,000 by then-so far they've raised just | :23:35. | :23:38. | |
The SFA's postponed Celtic striker Leigh Griffiths' hearing concerning | :23:39. | :23:41. | |
allegations of racist chanting in a pub till the 5th of June. | :23:42. | :23:45. | |
It's to allow police to conclude their investigation. | :23:46. | :23:48. | |
Ross County have signed the scorer of this goal, Joe Cardle. | :23:49. | :23:51. | |
The winger who's soon to be out of contract at Raith Rovers has | :23:52. | :23:55. | |
Inverness say they won't be selling full back Graeme Shinnie | :23:56. | :24:00. | |
or any other player unless they are made exceptional offers. | :24:01. | :24:02. | |
Aberdeen have been linked with Shinnie. More | :24:03. | :24:05. | |
on the Scotland sevens squad - and all the news as it breaks | :24:06. | :24:09. | |
Martyn Bennett was a pioneering piper who fused traditional Highland | :24:10. | :24:22. | |
music with techno beats with spectacular results. | :24:23. | :24:24. | |
Now, almost ten years since he died of cancer | :24:25. | :24:26. | |
at the age of 33, his most famous album is being re-released and his | :24:27. | :24:30. | |
Our arts correspondent Pauline McLean reports. | :24:31. | :24:41. | |
This is where it came from. It is not just about hip-hop rhythm and a | :24:42. | :24:54. | |
bit of dub. It is about coughing and spluttering and your whiskey! It was | :24:55. | :25:03. | |
an unlikely collaboration between Scottish folk tradition and modern | :25:04. | :25:08. | |
techno but the resulting album blew a breath of fresh air through | :25:09. | :25:13. | |
Scottish culture, and ten years on, Martyn Bennett is just as | :25:14. | :25:16. | |
inspirational to the makers of this show. I think it is that he is | :25:17. | :25:23. | |
someone who is able to be completely ancient and modern at the same time, | :25:24. | :25:28. | |
and somebody deeply aware of his own heritage and embedded in it, but | :25:29. | :25:34. | |
also massively curious and interested in all the musical styles | :25:35. | :25:39. | |
around him. How do you know what Mozart was thinking of? Martyn | :25:40. | :25:45. | |
Bennett died in 2005 shortly after the album came out so they show us | :25:46. | :25:50. | |
the chance for his friends to introduce his music to a whole new | :25:51. | :25:56. | |
generation. You would sit on the flat and suddenly off he would go | :25:57. | :26:00. | |
and go off climbing and we were chased after them in or of this | :26:01. | :26:09. | |
dreadlocked dynamo. Music is at the heart of the shore but so is | :26:10. | :26:16. | |
balance. This is Highland house, an unlikely blend but one the creators | :26:17. | :26:18. | |
hope will win audiences. A lovely day weatherwise | :26:19. | :26:24. | |
for parts of the country - It was very nice indeed. A lovely | :26:25. | :26:37. | |
evening in story what some late sunshine around but not for all. | :26:38. | :26:42. | |
Here is the combined satellite and radar picture. Damp for parts but | :26:43. | :26:53. | |
elsewhere sunny. This evening and overnight, staying cloudy and damp | :26:54. | :26:59. | |
but elsewhere, there with some clear skies but just a touch cooler. | :27:00. | :27:04. | |
Temperatures in towns and cities around about eight Celsius. A vastly | :27:05. | :27:12. | |
different day tomorrow, especially if you have had the sunshine, cloudy | :27:13. | :27:17. | |
and wet across eastern parts and the Borders. Perhaps one or two heavy | :27:18. | :27:25. | |
showers down towards Kintyre but by mid-afternoon, a bit of an East-West | :27:26. | :27:31. | |
split. Largely dry with some outbreaks of rain at times. Very | :27:32. | :27:36. | |
chilly with temperatures at around 11 Celsius and compared with today, | :27:37. | :27:46. | |
a marked difference. Brighter skies in parts so better than today but | :27:47. | :27:51. | |
the rain continues in Orkney and Shetland. Into the evening, the rain | :27:52. | :27:58. | |
pushes up towards the Northern Isles. Into Friday, low pressure | :27:59. | :28:06. | |
very much in control of conditions with northerly winds coming down so | :28:07. | :28:11. | |
quite chilly at times. Showers around and it will be fairly cloudy. | :28:12. | :28:17. | |
With the northerly direction of the wind, not a complete wash-out so | :28:18. | :28:21. | |
through the central belt not born dry but not the wrenching. Pretty | :28:22. | :28:27. | |
good news for the big weekend so expect some showers at times but | :28:28. | :28:30. | |
probably not in need of whale is! Now, | :28:31. | :28:36. | |
a reminder of tonight's main news. The health secretary, Alex Neil, | :28:37. | :28:38. | |
has survived a vote I'll be back with the headlines | :28:39. | :28:40. | |
at 8 and the late bulletin just Until then, from everyone | :28:41. | :28:48. | |
on the team right across the | :28:49. | :28:50. |
