Ireland. And that is Good evening. Recovery specialists

:00:00.:00:10.

have spent the day salvaging art works and documents from Glasgow Art

:00:11.:00:13.

School's fire damaged Mackintosh building. It took 200 firefighters

:00:14.:00:18.

almost seven hours to get the blaze under control on Friday, but they

:00:19.:00:21.

managed to save most of the building. Julie Peacock reports.

Piece by piece, one box at a time, and are of archivists and academics

rescued items. Two days after the fire and work is underway to

:00:43.:00:50.

recreate what was lost. The art school's laser scanning team are

:00:51.:00:54.

recording every detail to make sure they can restore it perfectly. We

:00:55.:00:59.

are just making sure there are no more hot spots and we are working

:01:00.:01:04.

with historic Scotland and the Glasgow School of Art and our teams

:01:05.:01:07.

are making sure the fire was extinguished. We are working with

:01:08.:01:12.

those teams to try to excavate what we can and save any further

:01:13.:01:16.

artefacts that are perhaps buried under some of the collapsed internal

:01:17.:01:24.

workings. Glasgow School of Art says it is tragically ironic that a new

:01:25.:01:28.

fire suppression system was due to be installed over the summer, but

:01:29.:01:32.

they say they'd is no way of knowing if it would have made a difference.

:01:33.:01:37.

Firefighters are seeing it as one of the most difficult they have had to

:01:38.:01:44.

deal with. It was a really hot fire that developed very quickly and that

:01:45.:01:49.

makes it difficult. Not only the intense heat but the smoke and the

:01:50.:01:56.

to visibility. The fire was spreading very rapidly so you are

:01:57.:02:01.

always on the back foot. The campus will remain closed next week so that

:02:02.:02:07.

the Mackintosh Building can be cleared and precious works stored in

:02:08.:02:11.

other buildings, but the art school will be open to students on Friday

morning. Football, and there was great drama

:02:14.:02:16.

in the Premiership playoff match. Hibernian have been relegated from

:02:17.:02:19.

the Premiership, after losing their playoff against Hamilton on

:02:20.:02:21.

penalties. Hamilton were losing 2-0 after the playoff first leg, but

:02:22.:02:25.

scored in the first half at Easter Road. And in the third minute of

:02:26.:02:28.

injury time, they levelled the scores on aggregate. With no more

:02:29.:02:31.

scoring in extra time, Hibs missed their first penalty. And Accies

:02:32.:02:34.

gioalkeeper Kevin Cuthbert saved Jason Cummings's spotkick, meaning

:02:35.:02:36.

Hamilton are promoted from the Championship to Scottish football's

:02:37.:02:42.

top tier. An ambitious plan to work out who

:02:43.:02:46.

owns every part of Scotland is to be completed within ten years,

:02:47.:02:48.

according to the Scottish Government. A new mapping project

:02:49.:02:51.

has been announced, days after an expert group published a major

:02:52.:02:55.

report on land reform. 62 recommendations were set out. Among

:02:56.:03:00.

the suggestions, it called for a new law to limit how much land any

:03:01.:03:04.

single person can own. The American pop superstar Katy

:03:05.:03:07.

Perry is due to headline the main stage at BBC Radio One's Big Weekend

:03:08.:03:11.

in Glasgow tonight. Earlier, Chris Martin, the frontman of last night's

:03:12.:03:14.

headliners, Coldplay, made a surprise return, joining the

:03:15.:03:17.

American rock band Kings of Leon for an impromptu session. Other

:03:18.:03:19.

highlights today include Paulo Nutini, Tinie Tempah and Rita Ora.

:03:20.:03:25.

Around 50,000 people are expected to have attended. Highlights and live

:03:26.:03:28.

coverage begin over on BBC Three right after this bulletin.

:03:29.:03:31.

At the Chelsea Flower show this year, one of the gold medals went to

:03:32.:03:35.

a garden inspired by the Somme. Here, for the Ideal Home Show in

:03:36.:03:38.

Glasgow, the veterans' charity, Erskine, has recreated its own

:03:39.:03:41.

garden to mark the centenary of the Great War. Aileen Clarke has been

:03:42.:03:47.

along to see it. Even before the outbreak of the

:03:48.:03:53.

great War, a garden or allotment was a much cherished source of extra

:03:54.:03:56.

food and even more so after war was declared. Gardens were planted up by

:03:57.:04:01.

men who went off to fight leaving wives and daughters to tend them.

:04:02.:04:07.

You were thrown into the deep end if you did not learn how to look after

:04:08.:04:12.

gardens, and lots of women could make jams and preserves. They would

:04:13.:04:18.

be sent to the front is a bit of home comforts. In 1916, Erskine

:04:19.:04:23.

Hospital started taking casualties from the war and those who are all

:04:24.:04:30.

depend on the market garden. Robert Gill fell appreciates it. It gives

:04:31.:04:40.

you a lot of pleasure. These gardens were practical, planted for produce.

:04:41.:04:46.

Even with the washing pegged out and the food gathered them, I am not

:04:47.:04:51.

sure where men who were keeping the home front going would have had time

:04:52.:04:55.

to sit down in the garden! Let's get the weather prospects for

:04:56.:04:58.

this evening, and the start of the week, and Kawser is at the map.

:04:59.:05:04.

A lots of water for the plants so far today with heavy showers and

:05:05.:05:12.

some late sunshine as well. You can see from the low pressure, showers

:05:13.:05:17.

swirling around the central belt which will continue for a time.

:05:18.:05:22.

Gradually becoming less frequent with drier spells especially further

:05:23.:05:30.

towards the east. Lows of between seven and 10 Celsius. By the

:05:31.:05:36.

afternoon, this is centred north of the central belt with drier

:05:37.:05:41.

conditions for the south and south-west with temperatures around

:05:42.:05:46.

16 Celsius as the hive. Tuesday, we are looking at some close around and

:05:47.:05:51.

the showers may be towards the West with temperatures reaching around 16

:05:52.:05:54.

Celsius. And that's Reporting Scotland. Our next update is

:05:55.:05:57.

slightly later than usual, at 10:50. Until then, from everyone on the

:05:58.:06:01.

team here in Glasgow, enjoy the rest of your Sunday evening.

:06:02.:06:15.

Good evening. Some of us had a pretty good soaking. It
