Kazakhstan. In Scotland could soon have its own launch site. The UK

:01:09.:01:19.

Government is looking at a potential locations, six of which are in

:01:20.:01:23.

Scotland. They include the former RAF base at Kinloss, now used by the

:01:24.:01:26.

army, but the runways have been retained. Another contender is RAF

:01:27.:01:33.

Lossiemouth, on the Moray coast. Machrihanish and Leuchars, also

:01:34.:01:35.

destined to be an army barracks, is another possibility. Those involved

in Scotland's space industry to save the country would be the ideal

:01:39.:01:41.

location for a satellite launching station. When you launch a satellite

:01:42.:01:44.

into orbit, there is a technical explanation, but you basically wants

:01:45.:01:48.

wrong, that could be bad, so you don't want to put any lives in

:02:01.:02:02.

An announcement is expected later this week.

before arriving in Dunoon this evening.

:02:08.:02:09.

Catriona Renton followed the journey.

:02:10.:02:10.

Have you any tips on what to do with this? Yes, just don't drop it! Then,

:02:11.:02:19.

to the water, in the glorious sunshine. This is some way to travel

:02:20.:02:23.

with the baton. We are working our way down the canal to Lochgilphead,

:02:24.:02:28.

and Willie Young is the baton there. It is an honour. I can't describe

:02:29.:02:33.

it. I was involved in the 1970 Commonwealth Games as a volunteer,

:02:34.:02:36.

and that memory stuck with me all these years, and his memory will

:02:37.:02:40.

stick with me for the rest of my life will stop it is just

:02:41.:02:44.

phenomenal. Many of his supporters jogged alongside. # oh, the canal

:02:45.:02:55.

for me, I don't like the wide raging sea! What a day for Bill and the

:02:56.:02:59.

baton, as it continues his journey through Argyll Bute.

:03:00.:03:01.

Tens of thousands of music fans have been enjoying

It's moving across Perthshire to Strathallan Castle.

:03:14.:03:20.

To golf now, and England's Justin Rose won the

:03:21.:03:22.

Rose's faultless final round included six birdies

:03:23.:03:27.

Afterwards, he spoke of his delight at winning.

:03:28.:03:37.

I'm really happy with that, obviously, starting the day with a

:03:38.:03:44.

lead and going out at 65, I take a lot of confidence from that, and

:03:45.:03:48.

I've run many tournaments, but every time you win, you do it in a

:03:49.:03:52.

slightly different fashion. Some wins, you take more confidence from

:03:53.:04:00.

than others. I think today was and events when I won in the style I

:04:01.:04:01.

would have wanted to. Time now for the weather

:04:02.:04:03.

Ayrshire coast and around the Glasgow area as well. Holding onto

:04:38.:04:40.

drier, brighter conditions for Aberdeenshire, Caithness and

:04:41.:04:44.

elsewhere. Highs of 18 or 19 Celsius. The last rain clears away

:04:45.:04:49.

from Shetland on Chiswick, and then we're looking a lot of dry, bright,

:04:50.:04:50.

sunny weather. Thanks, Judith.

:04:51.:04:51.

And that's Reporting Scotland. Our next update is at 6:25

:04:52.:04:53.

:04:54.:04:55.
