continuing wintry flavour. That's all from the BBC News at six and we | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
can join Nicola Sturgeon launches | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
the SNP's manifesto, describing it as her job application | :00:08. | :00:10. | |
to be First Minister. We look at the state of the Scottish | :00:11. | :00:13. | |
economy as the latest figures show a 20,000 thousand rise | :00:14. | :00:16. | |
in the number of jobless. Ronnie Deila says he'll leave Celtic | :00:17. | :00:20. | |
at the end of the season. One former manager says he'd be | :00:21. | :00:23. | |
interested in coming back. Who wouldn't for a job like that? | :00:24. | :00:39. | |
I'm not promoting myself for the job. I will leave that to the powers | :00:40. | :00:41. | |
that be. Also on the programme, | :00:42. | :00:42. | |
hundreds of mourners turn out for the funeral of the Clydebank | :00:43. | :00:44. | |
teenager Paige Doherty a month And preventing type one | :00:45. | :00:47. | |
diabetes in children - a major trial is set to begin | :00:48. | :00:51. | |
in Scotland to try to find the root The SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon has | :00:52. | :00:54. | |
launched her party's manifesto for the Holyrood elections - | :00:55. | :01:14. | |
stressing that she's out to win She said that improved education | :01:15. | :01:19. | |
for all would be the "defining mission" of her government, | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
if she is returned to power. But she also intends a new campaign | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
to build support for independence. This from our political editor, | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
Brian Taylor. Is a cute as if for a rock concert. | :01:30. | :01:43. | |
The selfies, the programme from government. They loved the support | :01:44. | :01:51. | |
act. Waiting in the wings, the boss. No, not Bruce Springsteen, Nicola | :01:52. | :01:58. | |
Sturgeon. To the manifesto, big emphasis on early years and support | :01:59. | :02:02. | |
for pensioners. They liked both but, from the soles of their shoes, | :02:03. | :02:08. | |
Bayern Munich for independence. So how about that second referendum? -- | :02:09. | :02:14. | |
they yearn for independence. I would like that very much. But she won't | :02:15. | :02:21. | |
contemplate it unless there is clear majority support or Scotland is | :02:22. | :02:25. | |
taken out of the EU against the popular will, but she plans a new | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
campaign to build the backing for men that you prefer independence. | :02:30. | :02:36. | |
Among other policies, the manifesto pledges ?750 million extra for | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
schools, aimed primarily at helping those from more deprived | :02:41. | :02:43. | |
backgrounds. A large chunk of the money goes directly to headteachers, | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
effectively bypassing local authorities. There is ?2 billion | :02:48. | :02:53. | |
extra for the NHS, a real terms increase, according to SNP leaders. | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
They will be a reformed practice for the NHS and more money for mental | :02:59. | :03:03. | |
health care and there is ?20 billion for infrastructure to boost economic | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
growth in Scotland, roads, railways, schools and broadband. -- ?20 | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
million. They have raised money from council tax and from scrapping a | :03:13. | :03:18. | |
client cap on income tax for higher earners but they have phrased the | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
standard rate paid by all and wouldn't increase the top rate. For | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
Nicola Sturgeon, this is personal. This bold, ambitious manifesto is | :03:27. | :03:33. | |
essentially my job application as I ask people to elect me as First | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
Minister, and it is very much a programme for government. This | :03:38. | :03:40. | |
election isn't a contest for second place. It isn't a game of chance | :03:41. | :03:46. | |
with the electoral system. It ages -- it is a decision about who forms | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
the next government and who is the next First Minister. I am asking | :03:51. | :03:52. | |
the next government and who is the people on the strength of this | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
manifesto to elect me. With new powers for Holyrood, they promised a | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
fair Row welfare system and scrapping the bedroom tax. They | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
would cast desperate they would cut air passenger duty and they would | :04:06. | :04:10. | |
extend the small business bonus so that 100,000 small firms would pay | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
nothing in rates. Finally on stage, the backing band, seeking your | :04:16. | :04:16. | |
support. The state of the economy is always | :04:17. | :04:17. | |
top of the political agenda. This morning new figures | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
were published showing that Scotland continues to have a higher | :04:21. | :04:22. | |
unemployment rate The jobless total increased | :04:23. | :04:23. | |
by 20,000 in three months. In a moment we'll find out | :04:24. | :04:29. | |
the reaction of the politicians, but first our Business Correspondent | :04:30. | :04:32. | |
David Henderson takes a look This engineering plant is a long way | :04:33. | :04:44. | |
from the North Sea, but it is still feeling the impact from the collapse | :04:45. | :04:50. | |
in the price of oil. It makes high-tech parts for the offshore | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
industry, but buyers are saving their cash, so jobs here have been | :04:54. | :05:00. | |
lost. Things have got much tougher over the last year. We are a | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
fraction of the turnover we've been doing before, and we have lost six | :05:04. | :05:10. | |
people from our workforce. We had to make them redundant. Most of our | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
competitors have done the same thing. The oil industry has been hit | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
hard, bad news for employment. The latest figures in Scotland show the | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
number of people out of work and looking for a job rose by 20,000, | :05:25. | :05:31. | |
and Scotland's unemployment rate is now higher than it is across the UK | :05:32. | :05:36. | |
as a whole. But these problems go beyond the north-east and the | :05:37. | :05:41. | |
offshore industry. Scotland's manufacturers have had a difficult | :05:42. | :05:44. | |
year, with some of the best-known names like Texas instruments facing | :05:45. | :05:51. | |
closure. And Scotland's service sector, which employs the most | :05:52. | :05:56. | |
people, has barely grown. Perhaps surprisingly, given that you might | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
think this would be concentrated in the oil industry, the figures for | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
women are worse than for men. So this doesn't augur well going into | :06:05. | :06:11. | |
the future. So, as our big employers faced big challenges, what scope is | :06:12. | :06:16. | |
there for small-scale job creation? At this event in Glasgow today, | :06:17. | :06:20. | |
entrepreneurs and community groups were talking shop, using old, empty | :06:21. | :06:27. | |
buildings for new ventures and jobs in uncertain times. This is | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
happening all over the world and maybe if we actually recognise that | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
and go, we are living in one of the most volatile economic times, we | :06:36. | :06:38. | |
need to be more flexible and allow innovation. We can't hark back to | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
the past, with people saying, wouldn't it be good if Woolworths | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
came back? That's gone. This engineering firm is taking up the | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
challenge, looking for orders beyond the oil industry. The question now, | :06:54. | :06:57. | |
can other Scottish employers and its workforce do the same? | :06:58. | :07:01. | |
I'm joined now from Edinburgh by our political editor Brian Taylor. | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
This a pretty key issue in the election, isn't it? | :07:06. | :07:15. | |
That is right. You can see Edinburgh behind me, and the issue of the | :07:16. | :07:22. | |
economy, the issue of employment and that of growth, those issues | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
combined will play a very large role in deed in determining who forms the | :07:26. | :07:31. | |
Scottish Government in the capital behind me. Today, the parties were | :07:32. | :07:36. | |
setting out their stalls. The opposition parties saying the SNP's | :07:37. | :07:39. | |
economic programme was wrong, that they had the balance wrong. The SNP | :07:40. | :07:47. | |
dissent, not surprisingly. We are operating in a turbulent global | :07:48. | :07:51. | |
economy and we can see all of the international reports about the | :07:52. | :07:54. | |
difficulties. That has an effect on the Scottish economy but what we can | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
try and do is take measures and initiatives that try and improve | :07:59. | :08:03. | |
employment prospects of people here. We have been successful in a variety | :08:04. | :08:09. | |
of areas, where we have staved off closures. It is a worrying set of | :08:10. | :08:13. | |
statistics coming off the back of high profile job losses. We must we | :08:14. | :08:16. | |
statistics coming off the back of double our efforts to support people | :08:17. | :08:19. | |
who have lost their jobs, which is why the Labour Party is advocating a | :08:20. | :08:23. | |
new agency to help people get into work and also support people in work | :08:24. | :08:29. | |
to get on in work. The increase in unemployment is concerning. It shows | :08:30. | :08:33. | |
how reliant we are on the North Sea and how much of a folly it would | :08:34. | :08:36. | |
have been to rely on that for independence. That is why we need | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
now to invest in the skills and talents of people who live and work | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
in Scotland. That way, we can grow the economy. There is a clear | :08:45. | :08:49. | |
difference between Scotland and the rest of the UK, and that will only | :08:50. | :08:54. | |
get wider if we make Scotland the highest taxed part of the UK. That | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
will put off the jobs, investment and growth that we need. We heard | :08:59. | :09:04. | |
the SNP manifesto today. How many more to go? Just over two weeks to | :09:05. | :09:12. | |
go. We expect the Labour manifesto a week today, just a week from | :09:13. | :09:17. | |
polling. Today, the focus was primarily on the SNP, given that it | :09:18. | :09:21. | |
was the launch of their manifesto, a big moment in the campaign. From now | :09:22. | :09:26. | |
on, for the next two weeks in a day, all of the parties have their | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
opportunity to convince people, to persuade and to cajole. After that, | :09:31. | :09:32. | |
it is make your mind up time. Still to come on tonight's programme | :09:33. | :09:35. | |
- the major medical trial aimed at preventing Type One | :09:36. | :09:38. | |
diabetes in children. And tonight's sport comes from | :09:39. | :09:51. | |
Celtic park as the Scottish champions begin their search for a | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
new manager, but who are the potential candidates? | :09:56. | :09:57. | |
The mother of Clydebank teenager Paige Doherty | :09:58. | :09:59. | |
has urged those angered by her death to put their energy | :10:00. | :10:02. | |
into remembering a "beautiful smiling girl". | :10:03. | :10:05. | |
Pamela Munro paid tribute to her daughter during a funeral service | :10:06. | :10:07. | |
at St Margaret's Catholic Church in Clydebank, | :10:08. | :10:10. | |
which came almost a month after the 15-year-old's body was found. | :10:11. | :10:12. | |
600 friends and relatives of Paige Doherty gathered at Saint Margaret | :10:13. | :10:27. | |
's Catholic Church in Clydebank for her funeral. Bright colour was the | :10:28. | :10:32. | |
theme of the service, which focused on the happy moments of the | :10:33. | :10:37. | |
15-year-old's life. My daughter had a smile across her face every day | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
and that is how she should be remembered. There is no room for | :10:42. | :10:45. | |
evil. There is no disputing that Paige was taken from us in a cruel | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
way but they take comfort in knowing she is in a safe and happy place | :10:50. | :10:52. | |
where nobody can hurt her. Sleep tight. Keep dancing in the sky and | :10:53. | :10:59. | |
show them what an angel is. Paige's body was found in Clydebank on the | :11:00. | :11:05. | |
21st of March, two days after she went missing. After the service, she | :11:06. | :11:07. | |
21st of March, two days after she was taken for a private burial. A | :11:08. | :11:12. | |
31-year-old man, John Leathem, has appeared in court charged with | :11:13. | :11:13. | |
murder. A trial has heard a young boy | :11:14. | :11:15. | |
describe how he was punished by two In a filmed interview, | :11:16. | :11:18. | |
the child said Rachel and Nyomi Fee forced him to take cold showers | :11:19. | :11:23. | |
if he wet the bed The women deny murdering | :11:24. | :11:25. | |
two-year-old Liam Fee in Joanne Macaulay's | :11:26. | :11:30. | |
report distressing. The jury watched a recording of the | :11:31. | :11:46. | |
young boy when he was being interviewed by a police officer and | :11:47. | :11:49. | |
a social worker in the weeks after the death of Liam Fee. This is the | :11:50. | :11:57. | |
same child who earlier told interviewers he had strangled Liam | :11:58. | :11:59. | |
but later said he had made it up. The child said he wasn't allowed to | :12:00. | :12:03. | |
go to the toilet during the night but, if he wet the bed, he had to | :12:04. | :12:07. | |
take a cold shower which made him shape. He said he had been smacked | :12:08. | :12:13. | |
on the bare bottom and made to drip dry in the hallway and sometimes | :12:14. | :12:16. | |
gets nothing to eat for the rest of the day. He described sleeping in a | :12:17. | :12:21. | |
cot in his underwear with no cover. Earlier, the child spoke about when | :12:22. | :12:26. | |
he realised that toddler Liam Fee was dead. The boy said, I saw it. | :12:27. | :12:32. | |
Rachel and Nyomi Fee deny murdering Liam Fee and hurting two other boys. | :12:33. | :12:36. | |
The trial continues. The final pupils affected | :12:37. | :12:38. | |
by the Edinburgh school buildings crisis have returned | :12:39. | :12:40. | |
to classes this morning. Around 600 first to third year | :12:41. | :12:42. | |
students from Craigmount High School were bussed to temporary locations | :12:43. | :12:45. | |
around the capital. 17 schools have been fully or partly | :12:46. | :12:48. | |
closed since the Easter break College lecturers have | :12:49. | :12:51. | |
given their overwhelming backing Last month, they staged a national | :12:52. | :12:58. | |
one-day strike over both the planned pay rise and the disparities | :12:59. | :13:02. | |
between how much lecturers earn But members of the EIS | :13:03. | :13:05. | |
Further Education Lecturers' Association voted by a margin of 96% | :13:06. | :13:11. | |
to 4% to accept a revised A major medical trial | :13:12. | :13:16. | |
is set to start in Scotland aimed at preventing type one | :13:17. | :13:23. | |
diabetes in children. If successful the study | :13:24. | :13:25. | |
could challenge long-established thinking on what lies | :13:26. | :13:28. | |
behind the disease. Here's our Health Correspondent | :13:29. | :13:31. | |
Eleanor Bradford. Kyle's dad has type one diabetes. | :13:32. | :13:45. | |
Kyle is one of the first to sign up to a massive trial which wants to | :13:46. | :13:50. | |
trace every child in Scotland who has a close relative with the | :13:51. | :13:54. | |
condition. My dad has to take insulin lot of the time, three times | :13:55. | :13:59. | |
a day, before he goes out. We were at the doctor's and then I saw the | :14:00. | :14:06. | |
poster and I was like, hey Mum, we could do that. Kyle will have a | :14:07. | :14:10. | |
blood test to see if he is at risk. It Kyle is at high risk of diabetes, | :14:11. | :14:16. | |
researchers want to find out whether giving him a common diabetes drug. | :14:17. | :14:21. | |
It is developing, offering the first real hope of a preventative | :14:22. | :14:24. | |
treatment for childhood diabetes. It is all based on a new theory about | :14:25. | :14:30. | |
what causes type one diabetes. Until now, it has been thought it is a | :14:31. | :14:33. | |
disorder of the immune system which attacks cells in the pancreas. May | :14:34. | :14:40. | |
be the immune system isn't at the front of the sequence that causes | :14:41. | :14:43. | |
diabetes. Maybe it is at the back. And maybe modern living factors of | :14:44. | :14:50. | |
modern life are stressing the beta cells and they are selling out -- | :14:51. | :14:55. | |
sending out signals to the immune system that, in certain people, is | :14:56. | :14:59. | |
coming and attacking them and finishing them off. Scotland have | :15:00. | :15:04. | |
the third highest incidence of type one diabetes in the world. If this | :15:05. | :15:08. | |
trial shows drugs can be used to stop it developing, not only were | :15:09. | :15:13. | |
thousands of cases be vented, but our understanding of the illness | :15:14. | :15:14. | |
will be totally revolutionised. The Ukip leader in Scotland, | :15:15. | :15:18. | |
David Coburn, has said his critics in the party | :15:19. | :15:20. | |
should consider quitting. On the campaign trail in Inverness, | :15:21. | :15:23. | |
Mr Coburn's hit back at the ten senior activists who wrote | :15:24. | :15:25. | |
to party bosses calling for him Here's our political correspondent, | :15:26. | :15:28. | |
Glenn Campbell. Ukip's larger leader in Scotland has | :15:29. | :15:44. | |
Nigel Farage for company in Inverness. The UK party leader | :15:45. | :15:49. | |
endorses David Coburn and has little time for those who have demanded his | :15:50. | :15:57. | |
replacement. We are on the verge of establishing a toehold in Holyrood. | :15:58. | :16:00. | |
Some people who didn't make it are jealous. It happens in every walk of | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
life will stop among the critics, Ukip's former treasurer in Lothian, | :16:06. | :16:12. | |
who says he acted out of concern for his party's reputation. I look at | :16:13. | :16:17. | |
David Coburn in that position and I think that whoever made the decision | :16:18. | :16:21. | |
that he is a good candidate, because he clearly isn't, in terms of his | :16:22. | :16:27. | |
character and competence. Mr Cockburn's opponents say Ukip is | :16:28. | :16:32. | |
dysfunctional in Scotland and, in a letter to party HQ, they blame him | :16:33. | :16:36. | |
for bad publicity. After appearing on a BBC debate on immigration, Mr | :16:37. | :16:41. | |
Cockburn make comments comparing an SNP government minister to the | :16:42. | :16:47. | |
terrorist supporting cleric Abu Hamza. It was a stupid thing to say, | :16:48. | :16:54. | |
inappropriate. He apologised but the activist's letter describes this as | :16:55. | :16:58. | |
a major gaffe. The document also raises concerns about a strategy to | :16:59. | :17:09. | |
undermine the SNP Euro candidate. Tasmania. I will tell you what she | :17:10. | :17:17. | |
says. I am sorry, love, I am a patriot. Today, the Cockburn | :17:18. | :17:21. | |
insisted he hadn't realised he had used the wrong name. Before arriving | :17:22. | :17:26. | |
in Inverness, David Coburn dismissed the criticism as nonsense. He said | :17:27. | :17:33. | |
those responsible were a disgruntled minority and that half the group of | :17:34. | :17:39. | |
ten had already left the party. Now he wants the other half to think | :17:40. | :17:44. | |
about going, too. They should consider their positions. They | :17:45. | :17:47. | |
haven't been doing very much for the party. They certainly didn't help me | :17:48. | :17:51. | |
get elected and they are not doing anything in this campaign, so quite | :17:52. | :17:54. | |
honestly what is the point of them being in the party? David Coburn is | :17:55. | :18:01. | |
keeping his job and he doesn't think his party critics will harm his | :18:02. | :18:04. | |
chances of hosting future election success. | :18:05. | :18:06. | |
The Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards has dropped | :18:07. | :18:09. | |
an investigation into former Scottish Secretary | :18:10. | :18:11. | |
In a report into the leaking of a Scottish Office memo | :18:12. | :18:19. | |
aimed at damaging SNP leader Nicola Sturgeon, Kathryn Hudson said | :18:20. | :18:21. | |
Tonight's sport is dominated by events at Celtic Park, | :18:22. | :18:29. | |
so let's go there now and join David Currie. | :18:30. | :18:36. | |
Good evening. The Scottish champions are in the market for a new manager. | :18:37. | :18:41. | |
The club announcing that Ronny Deila is stepping down at the end of this | :18:42. | :18:45. | |
The man he took over from, Neil Lennon says he's interested | :18:46. | :18:49. | |
in returning to the job - while another former Celtic | :18:50. | :18:51. | |
favourite says there is no shortage of big name candidates. | :18:52. | :19:01. | |
It's all quiet outside Celtic Park this evening but inside the search | :19:02. | :19:11. | |
is on for a new boss. Ronny Deila's days at Celtic were probably | :19:12. | :19:14. | |
numbered before they were knocked out of the Scottish cup by Rangers | :19:15. | :19:20. | |
but with only three of them between that and the announcement that he is | :19:21. | :19:22. | |
quitting, saying,... The team are eight points clear in | :19:23. | :19:40. | |
the title race with five games to play. Ronny Deila led them to the | :19:41. | :19:46. | |
premiership title in his first season. Crucially, under him, they | :19:47. | :19:52. | |
have failed to qualify for the Champions League. Have performances | :19:53. | :19:57. | |
been good enough this season? They haven't. Europe, Celtic have failed | :19:58. | :20:00. | |
time and time again in the big games. His predecessor played in a | :20:01. | :20:08. | |
charity golf event today, throwing his hat into the ring as a potential | :20:09. | :20:18. | |
successor. I think you're far better of with experience at both clubs. As | :20:19. | :20:24. | |
five and a half years as a manager, I have the experience. Another | :20:25. | :20:30. | |
former Celtic favourite says there are plenty of candidates. David | :20:31. | :20:35. | |
Moyes is one of the big beasts out there. He is out of work and after a | :20:36. | :20:47. | |
big statement in Spain, he has been tremendously successful in Everton. | :20:48. | :20:52. | |
Celtic supporters clearly have their own views on succession. Neil Lennon | :20:53. | :21:02. | |
leaving broke me. If anyone comes back, I hope it is him or Henrik | :21:03. | :21:10. | |
Larsson. Ronny Deila retained the premiership title would afford him | :21:11. | :21:20. | |
one last hurrah. -- if he retained. Has this act acknowledged that the | :21:21. | :21:26. | |
experiment with Ronny Deila has failed? I think it probably does. | :21:27. | :21:33. | |
The question is why it has failed. He was unveiled two years ago and it | :21:34. | :21:42. | |
was seen as a bold, gamble. He was progressive, he had ideas about diet | :21:43. | :21:46. | |
and bringing young players through. As a Celtic manager, you have two | :21:47. | :21:50. | |
win the league, play attractive football, the fans demand it, you | :21:51. | :21:55. | |
have to regularly make the Champions League group stages. He is going for | :21:56. | :22:00. | |
the second lead in a row. The fans weren't keen with the football being | :22:01. | :22:05. | |
played here but, most importantly, the board were unsure whether Ronny | :22:06. | :22:08. | |
Deila could make the Champions League this year. That is probably | :22:09. | :22:17. | |
the catalyst why he is leaving. What are you hearing regarding | :22:18. | :22:22. | |
succession? There will be no manager named until Ronny Deila has gone. | :22:23. | :22:27. | |
Celtic want to concentrate on the league. There will be a list. Some | :22:28. | :22:32. | |
names will be further up than others. Pretty near the top or at | :22:33. | :22:37. | |
the top will be David Moyes. He is the favourite. If he wants the job, | :22:38. | :22:42. | |
I suspect he will get the job. Aston Villa are also keen on him. We have | :22:43. | :22:48. | |
heard from Neil Lennon, Robbie Keane, Malki Mackay. There is | :22:49. | :22:54. | |
pressure on the board to get it right. Because their experiment | :22:55. | :22:57. | |
hasn't worked, they need to get it right. Time to go and get your cap. | :22:58. | :23:07. | |
Plenty more on this on BBC Radio Theatre. That's it from me. As that | :23:08. | :23:12. | |
taxi disappears into the sunset, so will I. | :23:13. | :23:19. | |
Well you can hear lots more discussion on who might be | :23:20. | :23:21. | |
the next Celtic manager on BBC Radio Scotland's | :23:22. | :23:25. | |
Now here's Shelly with details of how you can be part | :23:26. | :23:30. | |
of the audience in a forthcoming Scotland 2016 debate. | :23:31. | :23:33. | |
I will be holding our last debate, this time on the subject of housing. | :23:34. | :23:42. | |
If you want to go on the debate, fill out an application form on our | :23:43. | :23:48. | |
website. What can I say? What a day. Did we all share such a nice day | :23:49. | :23:57. | |
today? Was it just Scotland. Beautiful blue skies like this one | :23:58. | :24:01. | |
and our weather watchers have been sending in their snaps from the | :24:02. | :24:07. | |
North to the south of the country. The clear skies will mean it is | :24:08. | :24:12. | |
rather chilly in the countryside tonight. Through northern parts, a | :24:13. | :24:18. | |
few spots of light rain or drizzle. Most of the mainland is dry and | :24:19. | :24:24. | |
clear and at times chilly. Town and city temperatures around three or | :24:25. | :24:29. | |
four Celsius. In the countryside, colder than that. High pressure is | :24:30. | :24:33. | |
still with as tomorrow. Another largely dry day. Some sunshine on | :24:34. | :24:41. | |
offer for Central and eastern parts of the country. In the north and the | :24:42. | :24:50. | |
Highlands and Islands, a bit of cloud moving in. The cloud building | :24:51. | :24:56. | |
up through the Borders and in towards the central belt, in towards | :24:57. | :25:04. | |
Tayside. After a cloudy start, bright and sunny in the north-east. | :25:05. | :25:14. | |
Not as warm, as areas further south. Into the evening, the cloud melts | :25:15. | :25:18. | |
away. Some evening sunshine and a great sunset. The high pressure that | :25:19. | :25:24. | |
has been our friend the last couple of days turns into our foe. It moves | :25:25. | :25:31. | |
westwards. In doing so, it drags in colder air from the north. That is | :25:32. | :25:37. | |
going to bring in the cold northerly wind. A different feel to the end of | :25:38. | :25:44. | |
the week. A few showers possible in northerly areas. Holding into double | :25:45. | :25:50. | |
the week. A few showers possible in digits in the south-west. Chilly to | :25:51. | :25:53. | |
start the weekend. A number of showers in the East. That's it from | :25:54. | :25:58. | |
others. Good night. | :25:59. | :26:02. |
