debating, they will be questioned separately on BBC Breakfast. Now on

:00:00.:00:00.

BBC One it's time for the news where you are. From Wembley, have a good

:00:00.:00:00.

night. Both sides in the European

:00:00.:00:08.

referendum are appealing to their potential

:00:09.:00:11.

supporters to turn out Speaking in Glasgow tonight,

:00:12.:00:13.

the former Prime Minister Gordon Brown pleaded with working families

:00:14.:00:20.

to back Remain, warning that leaving the EU

:00:21.:00:22.

was a gamble with jobs. But the Leave campaign insist

:00:23.:00:26.

Britain's economy would prosper. This from our political

:00:27.:00:28.

editor Brian Taylor. This was a message for all, an

:00:29.:00:41.

argument for you cooperation on issues like climate change. But it

:00:42.:00:45.

was particularly a message for anxious working families, arguing

:00:46.:00:51.

that the wrote economic growth and jobs lies in Europe. If you want

:00:52.:01:02.

jobs to remain, though remain. If you want industry to remain, vote

:01:03.:01:04.

remain. If you want investment to remain, vote remain. If you want

:01:05.:01:06.

companies to remain, but remain. And we must get that message across to

:01:07.:01:08.

companies to remain, but remain. And people over these next 36 hours. But

:01:09.:01:12.

in Aberdeen, leave campaigners argued that European rules

:01:13.:01:15.

frustrated trade and that Britain could thrive outside the EU. I think

:01:16.:01:19.

that Leave voters are energised because we think we can effect

:01:20.:01:25.

change. I don't think that Women argument that we don't know what the

:01:26.:01:28.

future will be like is resonating. We have some clear arguments within

:01:29.:01:32.

the Leave campaign that resonating right across the country. Taking the

:01:33.:01:33.

message in the country, campaigners right across the country. Taking the

:01:34.:01:38.

believe the message is the passion to get the vote out. Remain

:01:39.:01:45.

campaigners like the First Minister now the need to energise their

:01:46.:01:48.

supporters. With families in Edinburgh, Nicola Sturgeon warned

:01:49.:01:52.

that British exit from the EU could jeopardise women's rights.

:01:53.:01:56.

In tonight's BBC Great Debate on the EU Referendum

:01:57.:02:00.

there were impassioned arguments from both sides on a range of issues

:02:01.:02:03.

including immigration and the security of the UK.

:02:04.:02:06.

Scottish Conservatives leader Ruth Davidson for Remain clashed

:02:07.:02:09.

with Boris Johnson of Leave on the issue of jobs.

:02:10.:02:19.

But stuck about what your site have been saying. Boris Johnson, his

:02:20.:02:25.

chief economist, he says it will eliminate manufacturing. He also

:02:26.:02:28.

says the EU would generate an economic shock.

:02:29.:02:40.

Michael Gove says it would mean inevitably bumps on the road. He

:02:41.:02:43.

says he cannot guarantee that people will not lose their jobs. "I Cannot

:02:44.:02:45.

guarantee that every person currently working on a current job

:02:46.:02:48.

will keep their job." Or as Johnson said, will be job losses was? The

:02:49.:02:51.

Maidan might not. That is not good enough. -- there might or there

:02:52.:02:54.

might not. The differentials in our country have become too great. And

:02:55.:03:05.

it is wrong that FTSE 100 chiefs are now earning 150 times the average

:03:06.:03:07.

pay of people on the shop floor, and it will be a fine thing if people on

:03:08.:03:11.

low incomes got a pay rise as a result of us taking back control of

:03:12.:03:13.

our country and our system. In another section of the debate

:03:14.:03:16.

the SNP minister Humza Yousaf was heavily critical of Ukip

:03:17.:03:19.

after the party's controversial I don't care if it is unpopular,

:03:20.:03:31.

let's stick with the facts. Migrants contribute more than they take out

:03:32.:03:35.

of the system. And let me say this much. I have been so utterly

:03:36.:03:42.

depressed at the state of the debate around immigration, and the worst

:03:43.:03:45.

that we saw last week when Nigel Farage unveiled a poster that, I

:03:46.:03:48.

will say, was xenophobic and frankly bordering non-racist. And Diane

:03:49.:03:53.

James from Ukip should hang her head in shame. -- bordering on racist.

:03:54.:03:59.

They have lowered this debate into the worst type of debate we have

:04:00.:04:06.

had. I think it is rich that the Remain side are so divide of

:04:07.:04:08.

arguments that they have to smear us as racists and bigots, because we

:04:09.:04:13.

are not. We love our country, and I have not heard one argument about

:04:14.:04:20.

how if we are too timid, too frightened, too small to leave this

:04:21.:04:26.

carbuncle of the European Union, how do we accommodate the people?

:04:27.:04:30.

A Scottish woman jailed in Peru three years ago for drugs smuggling

:04:31.:04:33.

is expected to be released later this evening.

:04:34.:04:36.

22-year-old Melissa Reid, who is from Lenzie near Glasgow,

:04:37.:04:38.

was caught with 11kg of cocaine at Lima airport in 2013

:04:39.:04:43.

Reid is expected to be formally freed later under

:04:44.:04:48.

an early release scheme, allowing her to return to Scotland.

:04:49.:04:54.

It's been a day of disruption for rail passengers as the first

:04:55.:04:57.

in a series of planned strikes by the RMT union hit train

:04:58.:05:00.

The union's in dispute with ScotRail over the role of guards.

:05:01.:05:07.

On the picket line at Glasgow Queen Street this morning trying to

:05:08.:05:19.

convince commuters why today's strike action will benefit them.

:05:20.:05:23.

ScotRail estimate that about 30% of its services were unable to run, and

:05:24.:05:27.

the frequency of others was cut with tens of thousands of passengers

:05:28.:05:34.

affected. The RMT union says it is all about the driver operation of

:05:35.:05:37.

train doors. On long distance services there is a 2-person crew of

:05:38.:05:44.

driver and guard, with the guard operating the door. But on suburban

:05:45.:05:46.

services with 59% of travellers there is a ticket inspector, not a

:05:47.:05:49.

guard, and the driver operates the door. As part of a modernisation

:05:50.:05:54.

programme, ScotRail Whatmore train drivers to be responsible for door

:05:55.:05:58.

operation, but the union says that is unsafe. And that they have

:05:59.:06:05.

already spotted problems. There have been a whole host from a of driver

:06:06.:06:10.

only trains with have been incidents where guards have not been on the

:06:11.:06:17.

trains. A total of 15 routes were cancelled today including "One

:06:18.:06:19.

Inverness and Edinburgh and Aberdeen. Commuters there were

:06:20.:06:23.

forced to dig replacement buses. But many passengers did not seem to know

:06:24.:06:28.

what the strike was about. No idea. No. Can't help you. I don't,

:06:29.:06:37.

actually. ScotRail so the RMT union is spreading misinformation, and

:06:38.:06:40.

that safety isn't at risk. Nearly 60% of our customers every day on a

:06:41.:06:44.

normal day travel in services without a conductor. We have at no

:06:45.:06:49.

stage say we want to run train services without a second person

:06:50.:06:55.

either. Some disabled passengers are also concerned because guards help

:06:56.:06:59.

them on and off the trains. Today's stoppage is just the first of

:07:00.:07:03.

several. Unless the two sides can resolve their differences, perhaps

by giving some ground, commuters resolve their differences, perhaps

International Film Festival this weekend and around

the country this summer. Our arts correspondent

Pauline McLean has been speaking A Frenchman plainly Scotsman. You're

:07:46.:07:47.

too late, I have prepared him for A Frenchman plainly Scotsman. You're

you. It Scotsman an Egyptian. And sword wielding immortals travelling

:08:04.:08:08.

between Scotland and New York. Even in the 1980s, Highlander was an

:08:09.:08:12.

outrageous proposition. Parts of it are just outrageously ridiculous.

:08:13.:08:17.

And in my case, kind of hard to watch. And in parts of it are just

:08:18.:08:22.

so expect. You cannot get more expert than Sean Connery delivering

:08:23.:08:28.

your exposition. Sean Connery may be the only actor that can say things

:08:29.:08:34.

and have them land and live with them forever. The same is true for

:08:35.:08:42.

the film, which made little impact at the box office but has since

:08:43.:08:44.

become something of a cult classic. A screening at the Edinburgh

:08:45.:08:46.

International film Festival this weekend, followed by similar events

:08:47.:08:52.

in Edinburgh and -- Aberdeen and Inverness. It is one film, like its

:08:53.:08:59.

heroes, that will live forever. To be involved with their thing that is

:09:00.:09:02.

three decades older people are still watching... Part of what is so

:09:03.:09:06.

gorgeous about it is the entire thing that it is shot in Scotland,

:09:07.:09:10.

the most beautiful part of the movie, as far as I'm concerned. Also

:09:11.:09:15.

the most coherent part of the film. And it is the brother people connect

:09:16.:09:19.

with emotionally the best. And despite his tag line, there can be

:09:20.:09:22.

only one, it seems a remake of the film could be on the cards. And the

:09:23.:09:26.

original cast are happy to see it happen. I would be much more

:09:27.:09:31.

interested in a reboot of that than another reboot of Superman or

:09:32.:09:37.

Spiderman. I want to see something like Highlander rebooted. I don't

:09:38.:09:44.

really care who they cast! I did my bit, it is time for somebody else to

:09:45.:09:45.

take a shot at it. While the Euro 2016 finals continue

:09:46.:09:48.

in France without Scotland, the managers of the country's two

:09:49.:09:53.

biggest clubs have been busy Celtic's Brendan Rodgers

:09:54.:09:55.

and Mark Warburton of Rangers met at an iconic location

:09:56.:10:04.

to promote next season's SPFL. Our reporter David

:10:05.:10:07.

Currie was there too. The imposing Super 8 cabin -- the

:10:08.:10:27.

managers of Celtic and windows were not here sightseeing today, they

:10:28.:10:30.

were here promoting next season's SPF L. Cue the obvious question,

:10:31.:10:36.

will the Premiership be a two horse race? Aberdeen is going to be

:10:37.:10:44.

stronger this year again. They did very well. They have signed some

:10:45.:10:51.

players. Hearts have signed players down in England. And those teams

:10:52.:10:56.

will always fight and make it very, very difficult. Mark Warburton and

:10:57.:11:01.

Brendan Rodgers our friends, they worked together at Watford a few

:11:02.:11:05.

years ago, but the next time we see them together could be when the

:11:06.:11:09.

clubs meet in the Premiership in September.

:11:10.:11:17.

Well, it's over to Kawser now with the weather forecast

:11:18.:11:17.

Good evening. Many of us have had a cloudy evening, but some of us saw

:11:18.:11:26.

some late sunshine. This was the scene in Fife this evening. The

:11:27.:11:31.

skies before the sunset. Overnight, largely cloudy conditions and that

:11:32.:11:35.

will be mild and muggy overnight as temperatures holed up in double

:11:36.:11:39.

figures. We have had this week whether front bringing showery

:11:40.:11:46.

conditions across the north-west of the Great Glen and some showers

:11:47.:11:49.

coming in from the south and west as well. Elsewhere, towards the east,

:11:50.:11:51.

clearer spells. For tomorrow morning some showery conditions will

:11:52.:11:53.

continue across the Highlands, islands and elsewhere largely dry.

:11:54.:11:58.

One or two showers for the site. At eight o'clock tomorrow morning there

:11:59.:12:01.

will be some dry weather across the South, especially across East

:12:02.:12:08.

Lothian and the eastern borders. The British 13-14, perhaps even 16

:12:09.:12:11.

towards Edinburgh. The best of the sunshine for the first part of the

:12:12.:12:15.

morning across Aberdeenshire, Caithness, and Orkney. Showery

:12:16.:12:18.

conditions across the Northwest and Shetland. The winds will be lighter.

:12:19.:12:25.

Across the UK, we expect heavy showers across Devon and Cornwall

:12:26.:12:30.

and Wales and up to the Midlands. Showers anywhere across Scotland

:12:31.:12:35.

throughout the day. Temperatures still warm, 20-23. The winds still

:12:36.:12:41.

remain light. For tomorrow evening across Scotland are showers

:12:42.:12:43.

continuing places, especially further towards the West. Drier with

:12:44.:12:50.

sunshine as we had into the evening. Wednesday into Thursday, low

:12:51.:12:55.

pressure is close by bringing showery conditions for Northern

:12:56.:12:58.

Ireland, spreading into the West of Scotland. And we expect some heavy

:12:59.:13:03.

downpours across south-east England as well. Elsewhere it will be

:13:04.:13:05.

largely dry and redrawing humid air from the South which will spark of

:13:06.:13:10.

thunderstorms. For Thursday there is a Met Office yellow warning for the

:13:11.:13:16.

south-east of England. Largely fine and dry across Scotland, any showers

:13:17.:13:17.

will be further towards the North. Our next update is during Breakfast

:13:18.:13:18.

at 6.25 tomorrow morning. But, from everyone on the late team

:13:19.:13:23.

here in Glasgow and around
