from Downing Street - and on BBC One we now join the BBC's

But what might Theresa May mean for Scotland?

We'll hear the view from Holyrood and Westminster.

The drug smugglers caught off the Scottish coast with what's

Andy Murray talks about that Wimbledon victory, and what it means

to him, his family, and the team behind his succcess.

You start to think about everything that's gone into getting to you to

this place, and that's the moment when you realise that it's all worth

it. Also on the programme,

festival goers make their way home from T in the Park -

but the event's been marred by events away from the stage.

And we're on the road on one of the world's greatest drives -

around Scotland's north coast. A day of seismic political

developments resulting in the announcement

of a new Prime Minster - but what will Theresa May's

leadership mean for Scotland? Within the last hour, the First

Minister said she would work "constructively" with Mrs May,

but Nicola Sturgeon re-affirmed her comittment to keeping Scotland

in the European Union. In a moment, we'll be hearing

from our political correspondent, Glenn Campbell, at Holyrood,

but first, let's go Nick, what's been reaction

from Scottish politicians there? Jackie, I don't think many people

saw this coming today - certainly not the speed

at which things have moved. In 48 hours' time, the United

Kingdom will have a new Prime Minister.

The Scottish Secretary, David Mundell, was one

of her earlier backers when she announced she'd be standing.

He's welcomed today's events in the last hour.

As the only Scottish Conservative MP, it seems pretty much certain

When she launched her campaign last week, Mrs May said she wanted

pledging it would be a major priority for her new government.

The SNP's Westminster leader, Angus Robertson, has congratulated

Mrs May on her new job, but also had this to say:

My message to Theresa May is that I really hope she will work

constructively with Nicola Sturgeon and the Scottish Government. More

than 62% of voters who took part in the recent referendum voted to stay

in Europe, and we need to protect our place there. The Tories don't

have a great record when it comes to Europe, so I am not holding my

breath. That issue of Europe for politicians to mull over tonight.

Another day in this extraordinary spell at Westminster.

Who would bet against more in the weeks and months ahead?

So what's been the reaction here in Scotland?

Our political correspondent, Glenn Campbell, is at

The First Minister has issued a statement. She calls for early

engagement with her for Scotland's status in the EU. I am sure Theresa

May will want to have discussions with Nicola Sturgeon and other

devolved leaders. When Theresa May says, wrecks it means Brexit, it's

not clear that she in visages that meaning some special accommodation

for Scotland. What kind of Prime Minister will she be? I have been

discussing that with the leader of the Scottish Conservatives, who is

one of her backers. She has a tenacity and a quiet strength. She

plays everything with a straight bat. I think she will be a

straightforward and forthright Prime Minister. I think she's absolutely

the right woman for the job. D you think Theresa May has a mandate, not

having been a contest in the Conservative Party, never mind in

the country? I think she does. There's an awful lot of examples

that we've seen very recently, regarding Scottish politicians.

Theresa May was one of those who called for a general election when

Gordon Brown took over from Tony Blair. Does she need to have one

now? I don't think so. Given the instability that's been caused by

the Brexit float, we are looking to resolve that. I don't feel we need a

second election, and I feel it would be better for the country if the new

government could get its feet under the desk and get on with the job.

That job starts in earnest for Theresa May in Wednesday evening

when she walks into number ten as Prime Minister for the very first

time. High on her list of priorities will be negotiating the UK's exit

from the European Union, and trying to do that in a way that keeps

Scotland within the UK. Thank you. It's thought to have

been the biggest seizure More than three tonnes

of the class A drug were found hidden inside a tug boat

after it was boarded by customs and police officers off the coast

of Aberdeen in April last year. Today, the Turkish captain

and first officer were found From the High Court in Glasgow,

Aileen Clarke reports. In the international waters of the

North Sea, 100 miles east of Aberdeen, the Chase is on. It had

taken two days for the authorities to find this tug, the MV Hamal.

Customs officials in France had tipped off their counterparts here

that the tug was some way of the coast of Britain and her cargo was

cocaine. Boarding parties headed across the choppy sea, their

mission, to catch and board the target and bring her voyage to an

abrupt halt. The tug and crew were escorted into Aberdeen Harbour, and

the search began. The search team knew there was cocaine in a ballast

tank by traces on the drill they were using. It was so well hidden

that it was another two days before they uncovered how to access it

properly. Starting with the plans of the vessel, which is something we

always start from and look at, the plans gave no indication of that

space existing. Members of the deep rummage team took it in turns to

head down into the dark tank. One by one, huge bales of cocaine were

retrieved. 128 in total, each made up of tightly packed, book sized

blocks. You have a layer of latex. Very well protected, and thought to

be around 70% pure. This was a precious cargo indeed. It is up a

huge seizure. It has been the biggest ever seizure of cocaine in

the UK by a large amount. To give a comparison for people, the total

the UK by a large amount. To give a seizure of cocaine by all forces in

England and Wales and Border Force in the year 14-15 was 3.4 tonnes. It

was effectively a years worth of seizures. But that half ?1 billion

worth of cocaine would have to seizures. But that half ?1 billion

another trip before being destroyed. To the half -- to the High Court in

Glasgow. The prosecution wanted to see it in its entirety. That

entailed a massive security operation. That involved careful

planning. It involved firearms officers, countersurveillance, to

make sure the drugs could safely be taken to the court. It was just on

the other side of those double doors that 3.2 tonnes of cocaine were laid

out. There was so much of it they couldn't fit it in the courtroom, so

it was piled in the open hallway. The judge, the jury, the QCs and the

accused file out to see it. Today, the Turkish captain of the MV Hamal,

Mumin Sahin, and his first mate, were found guilty. It went from

Istanbul to the Cayman Islands, to Tenerife, South America, then to

Europe and the UK. The captain and his first officer convicted here

today are just one small part of a very large international drug

smuggling operation. Investigations are ongoing across Europe to find

out who else was involved in procuring the 3-point two tonnes of

cocaine. Still to come on tonight's

programme. We're live at Royal Troon,

as the world's leading golfers arrive ahead of the 145th Open

Championship. And I will have the weather on the

road on the wild and rugged north-west coast, on what has been

voted one of the world's best drives.

The Wimbledon champion Andy Murray says it is "unlikely" he will play

in Great Britain's Davis Cup quarter-final against Serbia

However Murray may travel to Belgrade even if he does not

play because he feels a "responsibility" to the team.

The 29-year-old clinched his second Wimbledon title yesterday.

Today, he re-lived those emotions with our tennis reporter -

COMMENTATOR: He's there. Straight sets again. Yesterday felt different

to me. I was emotional just because I know all of the hard work and

stuff, the effort that goes into trying to win this event. When I'd

done it, first of all, I was really excited and happy. Then 45 seconds

later, all of that, that release of the motions. You are crying, but

you're happy. I certainly wasn't side yesterday. It was a nice

feeling. What is going through your mind? Are you thinking of your

immediate family, your young daughter, your wife, your peers,

friends back in Dunblane? First, you see the people in the stand. A lot

of my family is there. My team as well. Just seeing how happy they

were. A lot of them work and have made sacrifices to allow me to do

what I do on the court. They spend a lot of time away from their family

as well. That's the first thing that you see. Then you start to think

about everything that's gone into getting you to this place, and

that's the moment you kind of realise that it's all worth it.

These are the moments that all the hard work's four. Let's focus on

Scotland. Andy Murray, Olympic champion, Scottish. Jamie Murray,

best doubles champion in the world, Scottish. Gordon Reid, double

Wimbledon champion, Scottish. How do you feel about that? How does that

make you feel? Can we ever repeat that ever again? It would be great

to try. To expect that same success to happen immediately... It is

amazing, really. Tennis in Scotland has never really been a big thing at

all. It is strange that a lot of the best players over the past few years

have come out of Scotland. My mum genuinely has a lot to do with it.

have come out of Scotland. My mum She helped a lot of others,

obviously me and my brother, but what we want to see now is more

depth, more players playing at the highest level, rather than just a

few playing right at the top. Hopefully, that can happen for the

next few years. You have made a lot of people very proud. Well done.

Let's pick up on what they were discussing there.

What does Andy Murray's success mean for the sport here in Scotland?

Our reporter Lisa Summers has been finding out.

Wimbledon has always had the power to inspire, and no prizes for

guessing who has inspired this lot. I like the style he plays. I try to

be aggressive. I have caught right next to my house. It's good to me, I

like it. Participation in tennis is going up. The Murray factor will

have a big part to play in that, but how do we keep it going? In the

place where it all started for the Murray brothers, doors are open

today. It wasn't so long ago that Andy was learning his skills on

these courts. But this is a private club. Tennis is often criticised as

being expensive and elite, something Tennis Scotland is trying to

address. We are working with authorities to put partnership

agreements in place, to put funding in, to do a bit more and take tennis

into schools as well. We want to see more indoor courts to make it a

year-round sport here in Scotland. In Edinburgh, at Morton Hall tennis

club, there is an enthusiasm to playing. We have over 200 children

signed up for tennis clubs over the next four weeks, which is brilliant.

This woman played for Scotland and Great Britain before becoming a

coach. She thinks we can have another Andy Murray, but it will

take a lot. I see no reason why not. There's no stopping point to

managing it, but it takes a lot of drive and determination. So we are

hitting on a winning formula. Not just Andy, but Gordon Reid as a

Scottish champ. So what now? This is the sort of facility where there has

been in investment. These courts are free to play, and there's funding

for a coach to encourage people to keep on playing. But there's only a

limited amount of money and lots of sports vying for it, from the

grassroots right to the elite stars. But maybe this time it will be

different. A teenager has pleaded guilty

to causing the death of an Edinburgh Dylan Jenkin was driving a car

which struck and killed Jill Pirrie on Old Dalkeith Road on the 12th

of May as she walked home from work Festival goers have been

making their way home from T The event was marred by the separate

deaths of two teenagers last week, and today police said they were also

investigating Overall, though, arrests were down,

and there wasn't a repeat of last From Strathallan Castle,

John McManus reports. Three days of Heaven for music

lovers but every party has got to Three days of Heaven for music

end sometime. And spirits can be a bit deflated at the end. But most

end sometime. And spirits can be a people had a great time at T in the

Park this year. Tinie Tempah was good. It was first class. Will you

be back next year? Definitely. I will buy a pair of wellies! But the

event has been marred by the rate of an 18-year-old and the deaths of

217-year-olds. My thoughts are absolutely with the family and

friends of these young people as they come to terms with what has

happened. It is mostly contract is now left on the site, most of the

festival goers have long gone. But although the event did not sell out

all tickets, organisers said that it has a real future. Quite a lot of

premiership football clubs do not sell out, every single game, and

they still have the future, no one asks them that question. It is a

strange question, if no one came to T in the Park the question would be

valid but you have tens of thousands coming and it makes it one of the

biggest festivals in the world. So it is still in demand, absolutely.

Some research indicates we may already have passed the festival.

Some research indicates we may The suit -- the shortage or

depletion of the touring acts, the big headliners available in the

1960s, 1970s and 1980s, are not so available and about better traction

it is difficult to sell larger numbers of tickets year upon year in

advance. Despite that there will always be people linked to put up

with this, to get some of this. A look at other stories

Colin Montgomerie will strike the first ball when the 145th

Open Championship The world's leading golfers have

arrived at Royal Troon all dreaming On his home turf could this be

Monty's final fling? There for us this evening

is Jonathan Sutherland. The great golfing circus has rolled

into town at Royal Troon for the Open Championship of the ninth time

it has been held here at Royal Troon. And very much the big event

in terms of golf. The big story today has been about Jordan Spieth

withdrawing from the Olympic Games. In terms of Scotland the big story

has been about Colin Montgomerie who will be granted the honour of seeing

off this Open Championship on Thursday morning. Almost time to tee

off, a veteran of his Royal Troon home turf branded the honour of

striking the first shot on Thursday. One of the greatest players in

Scottish golf playing for a final time. This was not drawn out of the

hat! Did it come as a surprise? A great honour and I take it as such.

I just look forward to it. Aged 53: Montgomerie would be a popular if

unlikely open contender. The leading names are all here, all dreaming of

lifting the famous claret jug. I get excited for all the majors, excited

to be able to play in the Open Championship, not only because of

the fans but how challenging courses and the weather. I guess the most

satisfying thing you can get from being able to be the best in the

world, and some of the most challenging golf courses, that we

normally do not get to play. I would be over the moon if I could hold the

claret jug one day. Great sport is about emotion and Colin Montgomerie

grew up a stone 's throw from this course. In terms of the rich career

you have had, do feel this is something of a last hurrah in terms

of the Open Championship? Yes, it could well be. I'm not sure I would

have attempted to qualify if the open was at Saint Georges or

somewhere further afield. The reason I did try to qualify and put my

heart and soul in it was because of this year. It promises to be a

hugely emotional Open Championship for Colin Montgomerie, it probably

will be a hugely blustery Open Championship as well if conditions

here are anything to go by. Rain also forecast for later in the week.

One thing is for sure, I will be packing my waterproofs.

Time for the weather now and Christopher is on the road

around Scotland's spectacular north coast.

Chris, you have been so keen on forecasting rain this summer,

we've sent you out and about to experience it first-hand.

You join me tonight halfway up the past of the capital, it stretches

around 2000 feet up that way, one of the highest rates in Scotland and

one of the jewels in the crown of the driving route around the North

West that is gaining in popularity and recently has been voted one of

the best driving routes in the world. Even when the weather is

inclement at the scenery is stunning. It is the road that takes

you there. Make no mistake, the car is not the

star. It is the road. The north Coast 500, Scotland's answer to

Route 60 six. Top Gear films you recently and you can see why. 500

miles of scenery. 500 miles of Scotland's soul.

Traversing the north-west, this is not a new road, yet its recent

promotion is offering new opportunities. And not just for

those who come to drive it. One of the most significant elements of the

route is not so much the tourism side of it but the economic and

social impact that it is having already. Underlying that is about

lengthening the season, more visitor numbers, creating jobs for young

people, the first of a geisha for businesses that are there. And

sustaining some businesses who might have thought about packing up and

leaving. People have realised there was something amazing on their

doorstep. I'd have just been completely bowled over by it.

Nestled in the mountains and caressing the coast, the route is

remote, it takes effort to get here. Effort that earns ample reward. And

they come, to draw a part of Scotland that has it all. The MC 500

was always here, it is just no longer secret. And we've seen a lot

of people out today on the road, even when the weather has not been

the best. And what about the weather elsewhere M we had a number of

showers across eastern areas today, they are fading away and this

evening for many will be mainly dry. Some late sunshine around in fact to

enjoy for many places. Overnight it stays dry in the main, a few light

showers across the West and the north-west. The exception being

Shetland with some mist around and low cloud and rain continued at

times. Most of the mainland is tribalism clear spells and

temperatures overnight in towns and cities around 11 Celsius. The wind

generally light. Tomorrow not looking too bad, a lot of fine

weather in the forecast and bright if not sunny spells. Some showers

likely in the West and north-west, the further east you are the dryer

and warmer it will be. Taking a look at mid-afternoon, around four

o'clock, temperatures close to average for the time of year. Mid to

high teens. And the further north you go, the wind just a touch

pressure. Again Shetland still misty at times, Orkney improving and most

of the east of the country, the best of the sunshine 18 degrees. Some

late spells of sunshine once again to end the day. If we take a look

for midweek, pressure charts show high-pressure tantalisingly close

which will begin to exert its influence through the course of the

week. Wednesday, a lot of fine weather around and also some showers

once again, probably more well scattered than we are likely to see

tomorrow. Then by Thursday, the high-pressure exerting its

influence, a lot of dry and fine weather around and some sunshine.

Temperatures mid to high teens once again. For the week ahead, looking

good and I'm on the road all week. We will be a little further north

tonight. Now, a reminder of

tonight's main news... Theresa May will be

the next Prime Minister. She was confirmed as the new leader

of the Conservatives after her rival Andrea Leadsom unexpectedly quit

the leadership campaign. Mrs May said Brexit means

Brexit, and she vowed The First Minister Nicola Sturgeon

said she would work constructively with Mrs May, but she re-affirmed

her comittment to keeping Scotland I'll be back with the headlines at

8 o'clock and the late bulletin just Until then, from everyone

on the team - right
