More rain likely on Sunday. That's it. Now we join

:00:00.:00:00.

Nicola Sturgeon in Brussels - European Commission President Jean

:00:00.:00:10.

Claude Juncker says Scotland has won a right to be heard in the EU

:00:11.:00:21.

but the Prime Ministers of Spain and France say they'll oppose the EU

:00:22.:00:24.

Meanwhile, Holyrood hears a plea for tolerance from the Irish

:00:25.:00:29.

president, as many EU nationals living here say

:00:30.:00:31.

Everyone is a bit scared and uncertain, whether they are from

:00:32.:00:42.

Eastern Europe, or minority epic people actually born in Britain,

:00:43.:00:46.

everyone is a bit scared -- ethnic people.

:00:47.:00:50.

Also on the programme, the baby ashes scandal -

:00:51.:00:52.

Aberdeen council's chief executive says they were misled

:00:53.:00:54.

And I will have the very latest Wimbledon, where I have been

:00:55.:01:01.

speaking to Andy Murray about his second-round match tomorrow.

:01:02.:01:15.

The First Minister arrived in Brussels today to a warning

:01:16.:01:21.

from Spain's prime minister that he will oppose any attempts

:01:22.:01:24.

to hold talks with Scotland over its membership of the EU.

:01:25.:01:28.

Mariano Rojoy says that if the UK goes, Scotland goes too.

:01:29.:01:32.

Nicola Sturgeon has been in Brussels meeting EU officials and politicians

:01:33.:01:36.

as she attempts to keep Scotland in the EU following last

:01:37.:01:38.

Our political correspondent Glenn Campell is there and has been

:01:39.:01:42.

Hello. Great to see you. They have met before, but this time the First

:01:43.:01:57.

Minister wants the EU commission president to know she is prepared to

:01:58.:02:01.

consider all options to maintain Scotland's relationship with the EU

:02:02.:02:07.

even if the UK is leaving. But by the time of their meeting, the

:02:08.:02:11.

Spanish Prime Minister had sought to limit those options, he said

:02:12.:02:17.

Scotland was not have the confidence to negotiate with the EU, and that

:02:18.:02:22.

Spain opposes negotiations other than those with the UK, and that if

:02:23.:02:26.

the UK leaves, Scotland leaves, as well. Spain does not want the EU to

:02:27.:02:33.

do anything to Scotland that might encourage independence movements

:02:34.:02:36.

inside Spain. And its voice matters, because what ever Scotland's future

:02:37.:02:41.

relationship with the EU, whether as part of the UK or not, it will have

:02:42.:02:47.

to be agreed by all EU member states. The First Minister seemed

:02:48.:02:55.

relaxed about Spain's intervention. I don't think it is surprisingly

:02:56.:02:59.

hear the acting Spanish Prime Minister said that, that is the view

:03:00.:03:05.

Spain has, which it has expressed previously. The second thing, we are

:03:06.:03:11.

in uncharted territory and the situation compared to the situation

:03:12.:03:15.

in 2014 is different, unique situation. You would need all the

:03:16.:03:24.

other EU countries... Euro of course, but we are at the very early

:03:25.:03:28.

stage of the process, and we will have to work our way through this,

:03:29.:03:32.

but we are not yet a week on from the referendum, and in this early

:03:33.:03:36.

stage my priority is to make sure there is an understanding across

:03:37.:03:40.

Europe that Scotland have voted differently to the rest of the UK

:03:41.:03:43.

and that there is an aspiration in Scotland to protect a relationship

:03:44.:03:50.

with the European Union. Nicola Sturgeon to that message to the

:03:51.:03:52.

president of the new macro Parliament, another senior MEPs --

:03:53.:03:58.

and other senior MPs. Do not let Scotland down. After this appeal it

:03:59.:04:03.

was clear the First Minister would get a sympathetic hearing in

:04:04.:04:07.

Brussels but European politicians are wary about taking sides over

:04:08.:04:12.

Scottish independence. Most of my colleagues will not want to get

:04:13.:04:16.

dragged into domestic Scottish politics, the line we will take is

:04:17.:04:21.

that this is a question, the future of Scotland in the United Kingdom,

:04:22.:04:25.

which will have to be sorted out in Edinburgh and then it will have to

:04:26.:04:30.

be dealt with with London. However, the Scottish voice needs to be heard

:04:31.:04:36.

in the next weeks and months, and my colleagues will support that.

:04:37.:04:42.

Moments after this interview... Shame on you. Mr McAllister clashed

:04:43.:04:52.

with the only pro leave MP in Scotland, who represented Ukip. We

:04:53.:04:56.

respect the decision of the British Scotland, who represented Ukip. We

:04:57.:05:02.

people. We voted as the United Kingdom and that is that. Millions

:05:03.:05:07.

voted for Brexit, including many fishermen. We don't want to move

:05:08.:05:12.

back, because it is not the same situation we will be moving back

:05:13.:05:14.

into and we think in terms of fisheries we can manage our affairs

:05:15.:05:21.

far better than Europe. Support for the First Minister's approach is not

:05:22.:05:24.

universal but she insists Scotland's distinctive vote in the referendum

:05:25.:05:25.

must be respected. And Glenn joins me

:05:26.:05:27.

now from Brussels. What issue assessment after today?

:05:28.:05:36.

Nicola Sturgeon will be pleased she has been received at a high level in

:05:37.:05:40.

Brussels, pleased that the president of the European Commission

:05:41.:05:44.

Jean-Claude Juncker said Scotland had earned the right to be heard in

:05:45.:05:48.

Brussels even though he and others do not want to interfere in the

:05:49.:05:54.

question of Scottish independence. She was also pleased that the Prime

:05:55.:05:59.

Minister of Ireland Enda Kenny raised Scotland's case directly with

:06:00.:06:03.

other EU leaders in the summit which has now ended. She did not seem that

:06:04.:06:09.

bothered that the Prime Minister of Spain intervened in the way he did,

:06:10.:06:15.

to oppose any direct deal-making between the EU and Scotland, and

:06:16.:06:20.

maybe that is because she has the option of a second independence

:06:21.:06:25.

referendum. She is saying tonight that it looks highly likely that

:06:26.:06:32.

that will happen because it might be the only way for her to achieve her

:06:33.:06:37.

objective of protecting Scotland's relationship with the European

:06:38.:06:42.

Union. Short of that it seems to like that some sort of special

:06:43.:06:45.

arrangement for Scotland looks far less likely than it did before,

:06:46.:06:51.

otherwise the First Minister will have to wait and see what deal the

:06:52.:06:55.

new UK Government is able to negotiate with the European Union

:06:56.:07:00.

before deciding whether she wants to put the question to the people again

:07:01.:07:04.

and ask the public to choose between two unions, United Kingdom and the

:07:05.:07:07.

European Union. Meanwhile, in the Commons, the

:07:08.:07:14.

Prime Minister brushed off a demand from the SNP to give his backing

:07:15.:07:17.

to efforts to help Scotland Our Westminister correspondent

:07:18.:07:20.

Nick Eardley joins me. While Nicola Sturgeon was making the

:07:21.:07:25.

case in Brussels, her MPs were making a similar one at the House of

:07:26.:07:26.

Commons. Angus Robertson, the party leader,

:07:27.:07:31.

urging the Prime Minister to respect the result in Scotland and fight for

:07:32.:07:35.

Scotland's continued place in the EU. The Prime Minister said he was

:07:36.:07:40.

happy for Nicola Sturgeon to be in Brussels having discussions and he

:07:41.:07:41.

had made it clear to other EU leaders that

:07:42.:07:46.

Scotland had voted differently from the UK as a whole. But the crux of

:07:47.:07:55.

his point, he thinks Scotland's view going forward would be best as part

:07:56.:07:59.

of a wider negotiation, to get the best deal and the best access to the

:08:00.:08:04.

single market. Further pressure on the Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn to

:08:05.:08:08.

quit. No let up in that pressure, we have had more than 200 figures from

:08:09.:08:13.

the party in Scotland calling on him to stand down in the last couple of

:08:14.:08:17.

hours, a sign of how divided the party is. There is a counter letter

:08:18.:08:22.

coming out in the last hour, saying he should stay from figures across

:08:23.:08:28.

the UK. This is something that was highlighted in Parliament, the SNP

:08:29.:08:30.

said they could now command the support of more MPs than the Labour

:08:31.:08:36.

leader Jeremy Corbyn. They asked the speaker to make them the official

:08:37.:08:40.

opposition, but that request was turned down, but that was a sign of

:08:41.:08:44.

how much doubled the Labour Party is in at the moment that it could even

:08:45.:08:47.

be raised in the first place -- how much trouble.

:08:48.:08:50.

Here the former Labour Prime Minister Gordon Brown

:08:51.:08:52.

and the President of Ireland have both been voicing concerns about

:08:53.:08:54.

Mr Brown has said that millions of anxious people

:08:55.:08:58.

Our political editor Brian Taylor reports.

:08:59.:09:03.

How do you think that this vote will change your lives?

:09:04.:09:08.

Kaye Adams at the Polish club in cars go, where EU citizens tell her

:09:09.:09:18.

Brexit has them worried -- Glasgow. Everyone is scared, whether they are

:09:19.:09:23.

from Eastern Europe or minority ethnic people who were born in

:09:24.:09:25.

Britain, everyone is a bit scared. Of course I feel scared,

:09:26.:09:31.

uncertainty, no one knows what is going to happen. The rise in hate

:09:32.:09:39.

crime is really upsetting and scary and painful to watch. Reaching back

:09:40.:09:51.

to the Enlightenment, he said Scotland had taught tolerance to the

:09:52.:09:53.

world and now he said Scotland must lead again, by prompting respectful

:09:54.:10:00.

discourse. We have a challenge to do democracy better, rather than to go

:10:01.:10:03.

back to Devizes lines of exclusion back to Devizes lines of exclusion

:10:04.:10:13.

-- divisor. That was a key theme of Gordon Brown, as well, he urged

:10:14.:10:18.

leaders to come forward with ideas to deal with the EU crisis, and for

:10:19.:10:23.

Scotland he said all options should be studied, but he stressed the

:10:24.:10:25.

possible downside to independence. It is right to explore the option of

:10:26.:10:31.

how we can use the European single market, no matter what happens to

:10:32.:10:35.

the membership of the European Union by the United Kingdom, but we have

:10:36.:10:37.

got to look at all options, not just one option, we have got to look

:10:38.:10:42.

at the trade with the rest of the United Kingdom, that is worth a

:10:43.:10:44.

million jobs. Outside Holyrood a piper plays the

:10:45.:10:53.

European anthem, Beethoven's ode to Joy, in this context a lament, as

:10:54.:10:56.

the young European movement confronts Brexit, urging continuing

:10:57.:10:58.

Scottish links, leaving three questions, what, when

:10:59.:11:02.

and how. You're watching Reporting

:11:03.:11:08.

Scotland from the BBC. Still to come on tonight's

:11:09.:11:09.

programme. We'll be reporting on the latest

:11:10.:11:12.

twist in the investigations into the death of a London woman

:11:13.:11:19.

whose body was found on the outskirts of

:11:20.:11:21.

Edinburgh last year. In sport: We'll hear how Andy

:11:22.:11:23.

Murray's next Wimbledon opponent accidently helped him become

:11:24.:11:25.

the player he is today. We'll also hear why Celtic's

:11:26.:11:27.

new striker decided to join The Chief Executive of Aberdeen City

:11:28.:11:30.

Council has offered to meet the families affected by the baby ashes

:11:31.:11:38.

scandal to make a personal apology. Angela Scott spoke to the BBC after

:11:39.:11:46.

days of pressure following a damning report into practices

:11:47.:11:49.

at the city's crematorium. Kevin Keane's report contains

:11:50.:11:50.

evidence from an inquiry which some viewers may find

:11:51.:11:52.

upsetting. A comforting arm as Aberdeen's chief

:11:53.:12:05.

executive finally faces the music. Alongside her, the director in

:12:06.:12:08.

charge of the crematorium whose graphic words to the inquiry have

:12:09.:12:13.

caused such offence. Words like turning ovens off at night, leaving

:12:14.:12:22.

the baby to smoke, do you believe those are acceptable comments? -- to

:12:23.:12:29.

slow cook. They are not acceptable. The damning report says babies were

:12:30.:12:34.

cremated with unrelated adults and it says staff were given no written

:12:35.:12:38.

guidance on how to handle remains until last year, despite three

:12:39.:12:43.

previous investigations. Parents say the authority did nothing to offer

:12:44.:12:47.

support. So has this chief executive showing the right leadership? It was

:12:48.:12:53.

appropriate to allow the investigation to conclude, to

:12:54.:12:55.

understand the full extent of the issues in the crematorium.

:12:56.:13:01.

understand the full extent of the councils offering a supporting hand,

:13:02.:13:06.

but not for the leader? I launch the helpline which had a number of

:13:07.:13:10.

offices of this council providing that work, Gnabry report is

:13:11.:13:13.

published I have given a commitment that I will make those famished ash

:13:14.:13:17.

now the report is published. So far, now -- no causal resignations. We

:13:18.:13:28.

have got to address the practices which went on historically. Find out

:13:29.:13:34.

who was responsible. There is mention that the manager big

:13:35.:13:36.

crematorium has been dismissed from his position. The junior manager.

:13:37.:13:43.

There are people above him. There was misleading information given.

:13:44.:13:45.

The chief executive will now produce was misleading information given.

:13:46.:13:49.

another report for councillors which should be delivered by August.

:13:50.:13:52.

A murder enquiry is underway in Glasgow after an elderly man

:13:53.:13:55.

was fatally stabbed in the east end of the city.

:13:56.:13:57.

The victim, thought to be in his 70s, has not yet been

:13:58.:14:00.

He was robbed and wounded at Abercrombie Street

:14:01.:14:05.

around half past midnight and died later in hospital.

:14:06.:14:08.

Police believe there may be a link to two earlier attacks

:14:09.:14:10.

on lone women outside Central Station and the Trongate,

:14:11.:14:12.

in which a man armed with a knife tried to snatch their handbags.

:14:13.:14:20.

This is a dangerous man, he doesn't care who the attacks, he is attacked

:14:21.:14:27.

to women alone in Glasgow and came here to the east end and prayed a

:14:28.:14:32.

cowardly attack on a victim in their 70s, it is imperative that we catch

:14:33.:14:33.

this man. Detectives investigating

:14:34.:14:35.

the mysterious death of a London woman whose body was found

:14:36.:14:37.

near Edinburgh say they've They've joined her family

:14:38.:14:39.

in reissuing an appeal for help after a fresh sighting

:14:40.:14:43.

of 36-year-old Saima Ahmed has emerged on Portobello beach

:14:44.:14:45.

at the end of August. Five months after her remains

:14:46.:14:47.

were found, her death is still being Next to a tragic case of a young

:14:48.:15:03.

woman whose death remains a mystery... On Crimewatch new

:15:04.:15:08.

information emerged about her disappearance. The ticket was

:15:09.:15:16.

purchased just after 5pm... There was a fresh appeal for help after a

:15:17.:15:20.

new witness had been traced in the Portobello area of Edinburgh. Monday

:15:21.:15:25.

morning, 31st of August, 2015, he was walking his dog on the beach and

:15:26.:15:30.

the woman he spoke to, remarked about the beach and how she wanted

:15:31.:15:33.

to see the beach and that she had travelled from London and was going

:15:34.:15:38.

back that day. Detectives want to speak to anyone who remembers seeing

:15:39.:15:41.

her in this area at the end of August last year. Did she stay in a

:15:42.:15:45.

guesthouse locally or use public transport? They are

:15:46.:15:49.

trying to work out her last movements. The 36 rod from London

:15:50.:15:56.

took a train from Wembley and reached Edinburgh late that night --

:15:57.:16:01.

36-year-old. Five months later her remains were found on the western

:16:02.:16:06.

edge of Edinburgh, a post-modern could not establish how she died. We

:16:07.:16:11.

have no idea why she would have travelled to Edgar, we have no

:16:12.:16:14.

family links, it's the not knowing which has been disposed -- travel to

:16:15.:16:21.

Edinburgh. There is hope that the fresh appeal will lead to more

:16:22.:16:25.

information about her disappearance. A group of experts in Glasgow

:16:26.:16:27.

are investigating the possibility of setting up the first 'fix-room'

:16:28.:16:30.

in the UK, The Glasgow City Alcohol and Drug

:16:31.:16:32.

Partnership says a 'safe injection facility' will stop drug users

:16:33.:16:36.

injecting in alleyways and car parks, and leaving used needles

:16:37.:16:39.

in public places. Our health correspondent

:16:40.:16:43.

Eleanor Bradford joins me now. What's behind this move? Well,

:16:44.:16:54.

Glasgow has long had a problem with discarded needles in public places.

:16:55.:16:59.

There are around 500 trueing users in Glasgow who inject in public

:17:00.:17:04.

places. Largely because they're homelets or have some kind of mental

:17:05.:17:07.

health problem. It is not safe for them or the public. Last year alone,

:17:08.:17:15.

we saw a spike in the number of HIV cases in gas glow. The authorities

:17:16.:17:19.

say they've tried to do things about this. Set up needle exchanges. But,

:17:20.:17:27.

again, last year, 13,000 needles were given out. Just 16 were

:17:28.:17:33.

returned. They say it's time to look at other proposals. One of the

:17:34.:17:40.

things they want to look at is these rooms called fix rooms or safe

:17:41.:17:43.

injection facilities where people can go. There are nurses on hand to

:17:44.:17:49.

make sure they are safe and, in case of an overdose, there are needles

:17:50.:17:52.

provided and places for those needles to be disposed of. In the

:17:53.:17:57.

face of those astonishing figures, is there any opposition to this? At

:17:58.:18:01.

the moment, no. It sounds like a fairly sensible idea. That

:18:02.:18:04.

opposition may come further down the track if we get down the track. If

:18:05.:18:09.

we reach a point where it's decided this kind of facility should be set

:18:10.:18:13.

up. Well, then, where do you put it? Not many people want that kind of

:18:14.:18:17.

facility in their backyard. There is evidence from around the word, these

:18:18.:18:21.

facilities are in place in lots of other countries, they don't lead to

:18:22.:18:25.

an increase in crime or drug use and they help keep the needles off the

:18:26.:18:29.

streets. So, another thing that has to be looked at is the whole legal

:18:30.:18:33.

framework. Using her win is illegal. So how can the state set up a place

:18:34.:18:38.

where it's then legal to do it? That's another thing that needs to

:18:39.:18:42.

be looked at. But the experts who are involved in this proposal say it

:18:43.:18:46.

is at a very early stage. They are just kicking it off. These decisions

:18:47.:18:48.

will come later down the line. A look at other stories

:18:49.:18:51.

from across the country. The number of deaths on Scotland's

:18:52.:18:53.

roads is at its lowest level since records began in 1950

:18:54.:18:57.

according to the latest figures 162 people died last year - that's

:18:58.:18:59.

down 20% on the previous year. Police in Dumfries are investigating

:19:00.:19:08.

a sex attack on a woman by a man She'd got into a car

:19:09.:19:11.

in the Munches Street car park at around 11pm on Saturday night,

:19:12.:19:16.

believing it to be a taxi. Police want to interview

:19:17.:19:20.

the driver who was white, in his 30s or 40s, and may have had

:19:21.:19:22.

an Eastern European accent. The cost of renting retail space

:19:23.:19:27.

in Glasgow went up by an average of 8% last year according to a

:19:28.:19:31.

report by property firm, While prime city centre sites may

:19:32.:19:34.

attract the big retail chains, shop space in nearby towns appears

:19:35.:19:41.

to be different, with rents falling in places such as Greenock,

:19:42.:19:45.

Hamilton and Irvine. The migrant crisis dominates this

:19:46.:19:49.

year's World Press Photo exhibition which has opened at the Scottish

:19:50.:19:53.

Parliament. The winning photograph in the

:19:54.:19:56.

collection shows a Syrian refugee passing his baby across the border

:19:57.:19:59.

between Serbia and Hungary. The parliament's presiding officer

:20:00.:20:03.

said people couldn't fail to be moved by the images

:20:04.:20:05.

featured this year's show. It's a fantastic exhibition. It just

:20:06.:20:18.

shows you the power of the image. These the world ace biggest news

:20:19.:20:22.

stories, politics, nature, sport, culture. They are reflected not in

:20:23.:20:28.

words or print but in image. It will move you, inform you, educate you.

:20:29.:20:30.

David's here with tonight's sports update.

:20:31.:20:33.

Andy Murray's told BBC Scotland he's doing all he can to try to reel

:20:34.:20:36.

in Novak Djokovic at the top of men's tennis -

:20:37.:20:40.

and he feels his coach Ivan Lendl can help his cause 'in many ways.'

:20:41.:20:43.

Murray also credits his second round opponent at Wimbledon tomorrow

:20:44.:20:48.

with helping him become a better player.

:20:49.:20:50.

He's been speaking to our reporter Kheredine Idessane.

:20:51.:20:56.

Well, it's been a horrible day weather-wise at the All England

:20:57.:21:03.

Club. Hardly any play except under the Centre Court roof. That meant a

:21:04.:21:09.

soggy practice session for Andy Murray as he prepared for his second

:21:10.:21:14.

round match. You could argue the man he's playing turned Murray into the

:21:15.:21:21.

player he is today. It was this man in the 2008 Olympics which made a

:21:22.:21:26.

21-year-old Andy Murray rethink what he was doing. He said it ultimately

:21:27.:21:31.

turned him into an Olympic and Grand Slam champion. I learnt a lot from

:21:32.:21:37.

that loss, really. I certainly became a lot more professional

:21:38.:21:42.

afterwards. I was so pumped to be at the Olympics. I got caught up in

:21:43.:21:47.

everything else and forgot that I the Olympics. I got caught up in

was there to win tennis matches. Now, Lui has shown recent good grass

:21:55.:22:01.

court form. He will be much of a test for Andy Murray than Liam

:22:02.:22:02.

court form. He will be much of a Brodie was yesterday. If you believe

:22:03.:22:10.

in omens, how about this? Last time I've an Lendl coached him here, Andy

:22:11.:22:18.

won the title in 201 and his second round opponent was Lui again. Let's

:22:19.:22:21.

hope history repeats itself. Celtic's new striker says

:22:22.:22:23.

the possibility of playing in the Champions League was a big

:22:24.:22:25.

factor in signing for Here's French under-20 international

:22:26.:22:28.

Moussa Dembele at Celtic Park - as is traditional being

:22:29.:22:31.

shown off to the media. He is new manager Brendan

:22:32.:22:33.

Rodgers' first recruit. When you have a manager like Brendan

:22:34.:22:44.

who talks to you about the club and convinces you to come, it's a

:22:45.:22:51.

massive thing. I want to play in the European Champions League. I'm 100%

:22:52.:22:56.

ready to give everything to club and the fans.

:22:57.:22:57.

The new Inverness manager Richie Foran was also posing

:22:58.:23:00.

afterwards he spoke publicly for the first time since taking over

:23:01.:23:05.

from John Hughes outlining what he sees as his key to success.

:23:06.:23:13.

For me, management's all about recruitment. Recruiting the right

:23:14.:23:18.

players. Get the right players in and that's half your job done.

:23:19.:23:22.

Recruitment is key. The most important aspect of my job. I'm

:23:23.:23:27.

delighted with what we have so far. We want to add to that again.

:23:28.:23:30.

Now, Jen McIntosh has won more Commonwealth Games medals

:23:31.:23:32.

But the shooter left her first Olympic Games empty-handed

:23:33.:23:36.

She's back in Team GB for this year's games in Rio

:23:37.:23:41.

saying she's more confident than ever.

:23:42.:23:42.

A double gold medallist at the Commonwealth Games as a teenager.

:23:43.:23:59.

The poster girl for team Scotland. Two years later, she failed to reach

:24:00.:24:04.

the final at London's Olympic Games. McIntosh says she's more prepared

:24:05.:24:08.

this time around. Completely different athlete to four years ago

:24:09.:24:12.

and better for it, I think. More robust in pressure situations. Able

:24:13.:24:17.

to deal with things that don't go quite so well. Able to work through

:24:18.:24:21.

that much better than four years ago. Shooting is a family affair.

:24:22.:24:28.

Mother Shirley is a four-time Commonwealth Games medallist. Sister

:24:29.:24:32.

Shona has claimed fourth in the junior championship. Dad is

:24:33.:24:38.

McIntosh's coach. He agrees she is a more complete competitor. I think

:24:39.:24:43.

so. Those early days from deli to London, lots of raw talent. She's

:24:44.:24:48.

much more mature and internationally experienced and hardened now. Now

:24:49.:24:55.

25, can this talent go all the way to the podium in Rio? There will be

:24:56.:25:01.

40 or 509 line, half of whom can win a medal. We'll not set expectations

:25:02.:25:05.

publicly. We know what we're looking for. In shooting it is a case of

:25:06.:25:11.

make the final and anything can happen. Everyone has the same level

:25:12.:25:15.

the technical skill. It comes down to who has the bottle on the day. I

:25:16.:25:20.

think that's one of my strengths. We'll have to wait sand see. When

:25:21.:25:25.

the games begin, there's not long do wait and see. McIntosh will shoot at

:25:26.:25:30.

8.00am on day one of the competition. After a rotten day at

:25:31.:25:37.

Wimbledon, what's the weather like? Some brighter spells across the

:25:38.:25:46.

south-west as the rain clears away. That rain across the south spreading

:25:47.:25:50.

across the borders now. Behind it, late sunshine. Across the north,

:25:51.:25:54.

heavy showers. In between the showers, there are some brighter

:25:55.:25:59.

spells. This from one of our weather watchers. Some bright skies after a

:26:00.:26:07.

shower. During the evening. Showers tending to ease confined to western

:26:08.:26:11.

coastal areas. Showers continuing over the north-east. They will ease.

:26:12.:26:17.

Showers, many towards the west, clearer spells towards the east.

:26:18.:26:21.

Temperatures widely holding on to double figures. In sheltered glens

:26:22.:26:26.

perhaps down to 5 or 6 Celsius upped clearer spells. Winds generally

:26:27.:26:31.

light. Across the west coast fresh to moderate for a time. Tomorrow,

:26:32.:26:36.

dry to start over the east. Showers in the west. They become widespread

:26:37.:26:42.

through the afternoon. Winds still light further inland but fresh

:26:43.:26:43.

through the afternoon. Winds still around the coast. For 4.00pm

:26:44.:26:47.

tomorrow afternoon, a brighter day for Shetland compared to today.

:26:48.:26:49.

Cloudy and tamphere. Tomorrow brighter spells. Across the

:26:50.:26:54.

north-west one or two heavy showers. In the north-east, temperatures

:26:55.:26:57.

could reach 18 or 19 Celsius. For the Central Belt, the high teens,

:26:58.:27:01.

still a few showers around further towards the east. Here we'll see

:27:02.:27:05.

brighter spells for a time. For Thursday evening, a band of more

:27:06.:27:10.

persistent rain pushes into the south-west spreading across the

:27:11.:27:13.

country overnight. By the time we reach Friday, it will start to

:27:14.:27:17.

improve. We'll see showers around and the winds tending to freshen up

:27:18.:27:21.

across the coast. For Friday, some sunshine but ask theered showers.

:27:22.:27:24.

The showers for Friday are likely to be quite heavy and they come with

:27:25.:27:28.

the risk of hail, maybe thunder and lightning as well. Around the

:27:29.:27:32.

showers, sunnier spells. Temperatures around 15-16 degrees.

:27:33.:27:35.

In the sunshine in the afternoon, they could reach up to 18 or 19

:27:36.:27:38.

Celsius in the north-east once again. That's your

:27:39.:27:45.

from Spain's prime minister that he will oppose any attempts

:27:46.:27:48.

to hold talks with Scotland over its membership of the EU.

:27:49.:27:50.

Mariano Rajoy says that if the UK goes Scotland goes too.

:27:51.:27:57.

I'll be back with the headlines at 8pm -

:27:58.:28:00.

and the late bulletin just after the 10pm news.

:28:01.:28:02.

Until then, from everyone on the team right across the country,

:28:03.:28:05.
