Two airline pilots have been remanded in custody -

:00:00.:00:09.

after being charged with being drunk while in control of an aircraft.

:00:10.:00:12.

They were arrested at Glasgow airport yesterday -

:00:13.:00:14.

just before they were about to fly a plane carrying 350

:00:15.:00:17.

people to Canada. Catriona Renton reports.

:00:18.:00:30.

21 hours after it should have departed, the flight finally got on

:00:31.:00:36.

its way, taking its 345 passengers to Toronto. He is today its pilots

:00:37.:00:41.

were stopped before they boarded the plane. They were breathalysed

:00:42.:00:46.

following a tip-off they had been drinking heavily the night before.

:00:47.:00:50.

Police arrested the men charged them. Passengers were not told the

:00:51.:00:53.

attack happened. Among them some famous faces. I'm pleased it has

:00:54.:01:00.

happened in a weird way because I am glad the people on the ground

:01:01.:01:04.

respond to these things and someone put vigilant and said, this plane

:01:05.:01:07.

isn't going to go today because of passenger safety, which is important

:01:08.:01:13.

thing. We were told was an operational decision to cancel the

:01:14.:01:17.

flight but they told you very little information. I've never had any

:01:18.:01:26.

problems at all with this airline, none, and since this has happened

:01:27.:01:29.

they are bending over backwards to be apologetic. This afternoon here

:01:30.:01:36.

at Paisley Court, the captain and his first officer both from Canada,

:01:37.:01:44.

appeared in private, charged under section 93 of the railway and

:01:45.:01:47.

transport safety act in relation to being intoxicated while in control

:01:48.:01:53.

of an aircraft. They made no plea or declaration and are expected to

:01:54.:01:57.

appear in court again next week. They were remanded in custody and

:01:58.:02:03.

taken away from court. The rules for airline pilots about alcohol

:02:04.:02:07.

consumption are stricter than for motorists. The legal limit is 20 mg

:02:08.:02:08.

in every 100 millilitres. The airline has apologised to its

:02:09.:02:26.

customers and offered them compensation of 200 Canadian dollars

:02:27.:02:31.

off their next flight. They say the safety of their passengers and crew

:02:32.:02:35.

is their priority. The rescheduled flight has now touched down in

:02:36.:02:39.

Passengers reaching their destination after the long delay.

:02:40.:02:44.

200 construction jobs are to go in Scotland,

:02:45.:02:50.

after the leading construction firm - Dunne Group - announced it's gone

:02:51.:02:53.

The West Lothian based business will bring in the cuts

:02:54.:02:56.

with immediate effect - as Bruce McKenzie reports.

:02:57.:03:00.

With its headquarters in Bathgate, Dunne Group's high-profile jobs in

:03:01.:03:09.

Scotland include the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow, and

:03:10.:03:15.

Maggie 's cancer care centres. Its turnover last year was ?74 million

:03:16.:03:20.

and it was forecast to grow that to ?96 million this year. But the

:03:21.:03:28.

administrator says severe cash flow issues mean the company will cease

:03:29.:03:32.

trading immediately, they blame substantial trading losses on some

:03:33.:03:37.

contracts, coupled with the financial pressures of rapid

:03:38.:03:41.

expansion. In total 524 jobs will go, around 200 in Scotland.

:03:42.:03:55.

The incident at the address in Aberdeen is believed to have been

:03:56.:04:01.

contained. It's the hottest day

:04:02.:04:02.

of the year so far - with temperatures rising as high

:04:03.:04:04.

as 29 degrees celsius. Much of Scotland has been basking

:04:05.:04:06.

in the long awaited sunshine. But it's not going to last,

:04:07.:04:09.

with thunderstorms forecast This is what 27 degrees feels like.

:04:10.:04:25.

Glasgow and south-west Scotland saw some of the highest temperatures

:04:26.:04:29.

today, the mercury hit 29 interest which and 28 elsewhere. At Loch

:04:30.:04:34.

Lomond Shores, they were the tapping it was hot. Must get a bit of

:04:35.:04:41.

sunshine, even that if we were guaranteed it for a month. Most of

:04:42.:04:48.

the children to get food and fresh air, a bit of company. Business at

:04:49.:04:54.

the skating company was six times busier than normal. We have a very

:04:55.:05:01.

strong underlying business, we have a great location, in the outdoor

:05:02.:05:07.

environment but when the sun shines, trade really picks up and today it's

:05:08.:05:11.

really busy. This couple struck it lucky with the weather for the

:05:12.:05:16.

summer holiday. Get engaged to a couple of years ago so it's special

:05:17.:05:19.

memories for us so we are here enjoying the sunny weather. When we

:05:20.:05:24.

come to Loch Lomond it's usually quite nice, and it's the luck of the

:05:25.:05:28.

draw, when you are in Scotland, the good weather like this. Whenever we

:05:29.:05:33.

can, we get on about! Most of us felt the sunshine on our face.

:05:34.:05:37.

Aberdeen had a newly record-breaking day with thousands of people

:05:38.:05:40.

visiting the beach parks and gardens. At 10am at the chinos were

:05:41.:05:44.

being sipped at the waterfront and toes dipped in the water. 90 miles

:05:45.:05:52.

away, Aviemore was glorious and Edinburgh had a dog day, from the

:05:53.:05:56.

calm sea to the lunch crowd picnicking in the park. It was so

:05:57.:06:01.

hot even the birds were taking shade. But it was not to be for

:06:02.:06:06.

everyone. People in ship and they did their umbrellas rather than

:06:07.:06:09.

parasols. It started off murky and got better -- people in Shetland.

:06:10.:06:15.

The weather here has been absolutely fantastic, the warmest day of the

:06:16.:06:16.

year, out of the Nigeria and Miami. fantastic, the warmest day of the

:06:17.:06:20.

But enjoy it because tomorrow, the Rangers back. -- hotter than

:06:21.:06:24.

Nigeria. Despite all the advances

:06:25.:06:27.

in medicine, doctors are often still unable to treat a wound

:06:28.:06:29.

without leaving a scar. The physical reminder

:06:30.:06:32.

can leave some patients Now a campaign has been launched

:06:33.:06:33.

to achieve scar-free healing A leading Scottish plastic

:06:34.:06:37.

surgeon describes it as the Holy Grail of medicine.

:06:38.:06:42.

Andrew Anderson reports. Playtime for 13-month-old Sophie.

:06:43.:06:58.

She was born with a cleft lip and palate. From and death that has made

:06:59.:07:02.

difficult decisions. We went down sure what to expect, although we had

:07:03.:07:06.

a lot of support from the cleft team, during that period, so we were

:07:07.:07:14.

well informed, but it's always an anxious time. One of the biggest

:07:15.:07:19.

worries was surgery would leave there we go with a scar. We worried

:07:20.:07:24.

she would have a scar to grow up with. But having seen what can be

:07:25.:07:34.

done, we are quite happy to a degree on what we perceive to be the risks.

:07:35.:07:41.

So the's scar is barely noticeable, a great relief to her parents.

:07:42.:07:45.

Others would and are not always so lucky. Here, they carry out hundreds

:07:46.:07:49.

of operations every year on youngsters. Some of them are left

:07:50.:07:55.

unavoidably with obvious scars, the specialists to be able to heal

:07:56.:08:01.

wounds without leaving a scar is the holy Grail. This Edinburgh-based

:08:02.:08:05.

plastic surgeon is backing a campaign today to achieve scar free

:08:06.:08:12.

healing. She believes it's possible and would transform the lives of

:08:13.:08:16.

patients suffering from burns and other major injuries. I think some

:08:17.:08:22.

of the big exciting answers about scarring are going to come not from

:08:23.:08:25.

the knife but from a better understanding of the polity of why

:08:26.:08:29.

we scar and understanding it and allowing us to tweak how we respond

:08:30.:08:36.

to wounds to make sure we achieve perfect scar free wound healing. For

:08:37.:08:42.

children like Sophie and others, the prospect of scar free healing could

:08:43.:08:44.

choose from lives. Brendan Rodgers says Celtic

:08:45.:08:50.

may need to be patient if they are to overcome

:08:51.:08:52.

Lincoln Red Imps tomorrow night The Gibraltar side lead 1-0

:08:53.:08:56.

from their first leg - and the Imps captain says,

:08:57.:09:01.

they may be the underdogs but they ARE capable

:09:02.:09:03.

of causing another upset. However if they do -

:09:04.:09:05.

it might not go down too well Celtic will look to overturn the

:09:06.:09:19.

community defeat in Gibraltar and continue to fly the flag for

:09:20.:09:21.

Scotland this season in the Champions' League. Before tomorrow's

:09:22.:09:27.

match this flag will be to celebrate Celtic's domestic success last

:09:28.:09:31.

season but their Gibraltar opposition aim to spoil the party.

:09:32.:09:36.

And that's not to be sneezed at. If we didn't believe, we wouldn't be

:09:37.:09:40.

here. We know it's almost as possible, but there's always a

:09:41.:09:46.

possibility, it's 11 the 11th and if we can frustrate them, if they have

:09:47.:09:51.

and if the game and we play the game of our lives, why not? Despite

:09:52.:09:55.

trailing 1-0 from the first leg, Celtic aim to hit back quickly but

:09:56.:09:58.

the watchword from their manager is patients. It might take you one hour

:09:59.:10:03.

or 70 minutes in any game before you break a team down and then you can

:10:04.:10:08.

score three, four goals in the last few minutes, so if the game is

:10:09.:10:14.

needing inpatient, I'm sure the Celtic supporters will support the

:10:15.:10:17.

team. Lincoln players hadn't bargained on progress beyond this

:10:18.:10:21.

game, number of them have holidays booked the next week when the next

:10:22.:10:26.

round takes place. I go away on Friday, if we were to go through, I

:10:27.:10:29.

would have to cancel it, I don't did my wife and kids would be very happy

:10:30.:10:33.

but it's what did I not for, at the moment we are all living a dream and

:10:34.:10:40.

adopting anyone would change it. So the incentive for Celtic is to make

:10:41.:10:41.

sure he gets that holiday. In tonight's League Cup action

:10:42.:10:44.

Rangers recorded a comfortable The goals were courtesy

:10:45.:10:47.

of Barrie MacKay and Martyn Waghorn. All of tonight's scores

:10:48.:10:51.

are available on the BBC After a scorching day, time for the

:10:52.:11:10.

weather forecast for tonight and tomorrow.

:11:11.:11:15.

Scotland has had its hottest day the year, with a high of 29 Celsius

:11:16.:11:22.

in Prestwick. We do have a change developing across the UK with some

:11:23.:11:26.

heavy, thundery downpours developing the night and tomorrow and as a

:11:27.:11:32.

result, the Met office has issued a warning. We are expecting the

:11:33.:11:41.

possibility of some power outages. Showers continue to roll in,

:11:42.:11:47.

primarily through the North of Scotland, frequent thunder,

:11:48.:11:51.

lightning, some hail, and if the thunder and lightning doesn't keep

:11:52.:11:55.

you awake then the sheer humidity across the country almost certainly

:11:56.:12:00.

will, with temperatures around 14 to 23 Celsius. In two tomorrow morning,

:12:01.:12:06.

we will see this next batch of heavy, thundery downpours moving in

:12:07.:12:12.

to southern and central Scotland, if you're heading out tomorrow morning,

:12:13.:12:14.

you are likely to encounter some tricky driving conditions. Perhaps

:12:15.:12:24.

some hail in the mix, too. Try in the North of Scotland also in the

:12:25.:12:28.

far north we will hold onto some heavy, thundery showers into the

:12:29.:12:35.

likes of Orkney. Through the course of the day, will continue to see

:12:36.:12:38.

these heavy, thundery downpours moving through Central, Eastern and

:12:39.:12:43.

northern Scotland primarily, something drier and perhaps brighter

:12:44.:12:48.

feeding into a Western, Central and Southern area scanned the afternoon.

:12:49.:12:52.

Across the rest of the UK, something prior and try drier and brighter. We

:12:53.:13:02.

hold onto the searing heat across the likes of East Anglia and the

:13:03.:13:07.

London area. Tomorrow evening here, the Sauers will come confined to the

:13:08.:13:13.

Northern Isles and for Thursday, drier and quieter.

:13:14.:13:17.

Our next update is during Breakfast at 6.25am tomorrow morning.

:13:18.:13:20.

But, from everyone on the late team here in Glasgow

:13:21.:13:23.

and around the country - goodnight.
