And Jack and Victor are back, as Still Game returns to our screens | :00:32. | :00:35. | |
The Scottish nurse Pauline Cafferkey, who contracted the Ebola | :00:36. | :00:59. | |
virus in west Africa, is back in hospital in Glasgow tonight. | :01:00. | :01:01. | |
She was taken from her home in Cambuslang by ambulance | :01:02. | :01:06. | |
with a police escort earlier today, after becoming ill. | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
Our reporter Aileen Clarke is at Queen Elizabeth | :01:10. | :01:12. | |
Pauline Cafferkey is in a stable condition and she is undergoing | :01:13. | :01:30. | |
investigations. The health board have told us that, following a | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
detailed assessment of her, they can provide reassurance that there is no | :01:34. | :01:39. | |
risk to the public. She was brought here around 9:30am today by | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
ambulance from her home and under police escort. She's in the care the | :01:44. | :01:50. | |
infectious diseases team here at the hospital. They will be carrying out | :01:51. | :01:56. | |
all these tests. It must be, though, some concern to herself and | :01:57. | :01:59. | |
disappointment to herself and her family that is, at this point in the | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
recovery, she's found herself back in hospital once more. | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
It's just three weeks since Pauline Cafferkey emerged from a hearing in | :02:08. | :02:16. | |
Edinburgh cleared to go back to nursing. This process has been | :02:17. | :02:20. | |
upsetting and stressful for Pauline but she's delighted that the panel | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
is made the decision that she is no case to answer. As she left that | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
day, she must have been looking forward to continuing with her | :02:30. | :02:30. | |
nursing career but this morning she forward to continuing with her | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
was taken from her home in Cambuslang by ambulance under police | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
escort by hospital in Glasgow. Neighbours expressed concern and | :02:40. | :02:45. | |
hope for a speedy recovery. Shocked. She was making progress, out and | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
about and going to work. She's been through so much and, each time she | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
gets out, she thinks she's on the road to recovery and then she gets | :02:55. | :03:00. | |
something else. It's a shame. Unfortunately she contracted the | :03:01. | :03:08. | |
disease kind of others. -- trying to help others. Pauline Cafferkey | :03:09. | :03:11. | |
contracted Ebola after going out to nurse patients in the Ebola outbreak | :03:12. | :03:18. | |
in Sierra Leone. On her return home, she became critically ill and | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
complex arrangements were put in place to transport her to a | :03:22. | :03:24. | |
specialist unit in London, where she stayed for a month. Last October, | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
the virus re-emerged causing meningitis and she was taken again | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
to London. In February this year, another complication, another | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
readmission to the specialist unit. In September, the hearing into what | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
she had told health officials when she arrived back in the UK from | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
Sierra Leone cleared her to go back to nursing. This morning, she was | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
taken back to hospital as a patient. She spoke a year ago about how she | :03:51. | :03:54. | |
didn't really know how herself would hold up. Is taken me a good few | :03:55. | :04:00. | |
months to recover. You don't know long-term either. Hopefully this is | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
the end of it, but you just don't know. Pauline has been back doing | :04:06. | :04:11. | |
some work at a health centre in Blantyre, and local people today | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
wished her well. I think there will be a lot of concern and sympathy for | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
her. You don't want anybody to go through it, especially somebody | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
trying to help people. She's a good person, the work she does. I'm sorry | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
to hear it and I hope she comes out of it OK. Of course, we should | :04:29. | :04:36. | |
remember that, in the last couple of years, Ms Cafferkey's immune system | :04:37. | :04:39. | |
is dating a right good battering, so it might be the case that, as long | :04:40. | :04:46. | |
as she is in a stable condition, the doctors will want to get the results | :04:47. | :04:48. | |
of all the tests today before reaching a decision about whether | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
she needs to go back to the specialist unit in London where she | :04:53. | :04:56. | |
has been treated before or whether they can adequately treat her here | :04:57. | :04:57. | |
in Glasgow. The Scottish government is banning | :04:58. | :04:58. | |
the controversial practice The technique involves | :04:59. | :05:00. | |
burning difficult-to-mine coal under the ground, | :05:01. | :05:06. | |
and capturing the gas it gives off Environmental campaigners | :05:07. | :05:09. | |
are against the practice but the Conservatives argue it has | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
the potential to boost the economy. Here's our Environment | :05:14. | :05:16. | |
correspondent, Kevin Keane. It lies deep beneath the rippling | :05:17. | :05:31. | |
waves and is causing alarm to be toonie Unity is along its banks but | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
today the monster was silenced. -- to be communities. That monster is | :05:36. | :05:42. | |
coal, and this campaign has fought hard for a ban on the controversial | :05:43. | :05:45. | |
technique to turn it into energy. This process creates huge cavities. | :05:46. | :05:51. | |
Nobody knows what's above it and nobody can convince us how they are | :05:52. | :06:00. | |
going to prevent any of it, the gas leaching into old mine workings and | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
getting to the surface. The technique involves drilling to be | :06:05. | :06:11. | |
coal seam and getting oxygen. That causes gas to rise back to the | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
surface where it is captured. And Fife is rife for it. The amount mind | :06:16. | :06:23. | |
here at the coal face was only the most accessible, just a small | :06:24. | :06:27. | |
proportion of what exists. Little now remains here of the industry | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
that these communities were built on. They once supported tens of | :06:31. | :06:38. | |
thousands of jobs, and some have predicted that gasification would | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
prompt the revival of coal. The techniques might be different to | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
fracking but the protests covered them all and today ministers | :06:48. | :06:50. | |
confirmed what was a first victory for campaigners, as you was banned. | :06:51. | :06:58. | |
It doesn't come at any price and we have to take a balanced, proportion | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
of view, listening to the scientific evidence and taking a considered | :07:03. | :07:05. | |
decision. Don't think that this technology should form part of our | :07:06. | :07:12. | |
technology makes. Underground coal gasification is very different to | :07:13. | :07:16. | |
fracking. Last week, the first imported shipment shale gas arrived | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
in Scotland. The Scottish Conservatives say these technologies | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
have economic potential. This ban is nothing short of environmental | :07:26. | :07:28. | |
nimbyism. It's clear that the SNP is happy to allow shale gas to be | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
imported from Pennsylvania and America and today, when asked, there | :07:34. | :07:39. | |
was no ban on importing any gas produced this way. For now, one | :07:40. | :07:44. | |
controversial technology is dead in the water but the bigger battle | :07:45. | :07:45. | |
against fracking here is still A new report has warned that | :07:46. | :07:47. | |
Scotland could lose between 30,000 and 80,000 jobs as a | :07:48. | :07:50. | |
consequence of leaving The report, from the Fraser | :07:51. | :07:52. | |
of Allander Institute, suggests the impact on the rest | :07:53. | :07:55. | |
of the UK could be even greater. The issue dominated questions | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
to the First Minister This from our political | :08:00. | :08:01. | |
editor Brian Taylor. Scotland trades with the European | :08:02. | :08:16. | |
Union, and that's potentially affected by Brexit, especially if | :08:17. | :08:22. | |
tariffs replace free exchange cost date's report commissioned by | :08:23. | :08:24. | |
Holyrood puts numbers on that. It tracks the extent to which Scotland | :08:25. | :08:31. | |
disengages from the EU economy. Under the best scenario, the economy | :08:32. | :08:34. | |
would shrink by at least 2%, shedding 32,000 jobs. Under the | :08:35. | :08:39. | |
worst scenario, the economy would contract by 5%, costing 80,000 jobs. | :08:40. | :08:45. | |
The report says that Brexit may have a worse impact than on the remainder | :08:46. | :08:49. | |
of the UK because Scotland is less exposed. -- a worse impact on the | :08:50. | :08:58. | |
remainder. It isn't surprising when you think of the trade composition | :08:59. | :09:01. | |
of the Scottish economy and the UK economy. Nicola Sturgeon said the | :09:02. | :09:07. | |
report underlined the need to minimise any disruption caused by | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
Brexit but she was challenged by Ruth Davidson of the Tories to say | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
what she would do. My position is to face up to the realities ahead of | :09:17. | :09:21. | |
us, to mitigate risks and take advantage of opportunities, and this | :09:22. | :09:25. | |
Parliament now faces a choice about whether to put the lions share of | :09:26. | :09:31. | |
its efforts into examining practical solutions or simply complaining | :09:32. | :09:33. | |
about the results. Which is it to be? Ms Sturgeon said the Tories | :09:34. | :09:42. | |
brought about Brexit. Unlike Miss Davidson, my position hasn't | :09:43. | :09:46. | |
changed. I continue to think that Brexit is a bad idea and I continue | :09:47. | :09:50. | |
to think it's my responsibility to protect Scotland from it. These | :09:51. | :09:54. | |
foreign workers are our neighbours, friends and families. The Lib Dems | :09:55. | :10:01. | |
condemned the idea. The First Minister offered a suggestion. To | :10:02. | :10:06. | |
call on the UK Government to stop using human beings as bargaining | :10:07. | :10:11. | |
chips and give them the guaranteed right to stay where they belong, | :10:12. | :10:15. | |
here in Scotland. Supporters of Brexit said it would open | :10:16. | :10:20. | |
opportunities for other trades. The report authors concede, but | :10:21. | :10:22. | |
circumstances may change with passage of time and under political | :10:23. | :10:28. | |
direction but, as of today, the Scottish take on Brexit is wholly | :10:29. | :10:30. | |
negative. The Auditor General's warning that | :10:31. | :10:31. | |
two Scottish health boards are facing prolonged | :10:32. | :10:33. | |
and considerable NHS Tayside needs to make savings | :10:34. | :10:35. | |
of ?175 million over the next five years, | :10:36. | :10:39. | |
while the bill for the new NHS24 IT The Auditor General said | :10:40. | :10:42. | |
the difficulties faced by the boards would "continue to have an impact | :10:43. | :10:51. | |
on the way they operate The operation to remove the oil rig | :10:52. | :10:54. | |
the Transocean Winner, which was stranded on the Western | :10:55. | :11:02. | |
Isles last month, is well under way. It's been positioned over a heavy | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
lifting vessel in Broad Bay on the east coast of Lewis, | :11:08. | :11:09. | |
and it's now being slowly If the operation's successful, | :11:10. | :11:12. | |
the rig will be transported The rig started its short journey to | :11:13. | :11:34. | |
the heavy lift ship this morning. The same attempt last week had to be | :11:35. | :11:38. | |
abandoned when a heavy swell from the north meant it was too dangerous | :11:39. | :11:43. | |
to try and get the 17,000 tonne rig on board. The rig was nursed by four | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
small tugs. It suffered damage when it grounded and progress at the be | :11:49. | :11:52. | |
slowed as it moved towards the ship. The heavy lift ship was let down | :11:53. | :11:57. | |
into the sea overnight to a depth of 23 metres until only the bow and | :11:58. | :12:05. | |
stern were visible. It was necessary to rip... The right wing had to be | :12:06. | :12:09. | |
pulled across the deck and held in position. More and more of the rig | :12:10. | :12:15. | |
became visible as the hawk threw off ballast. The rig is now on the deck | :12:16. | :12:22. | |
of the hawk and it is taking off ballast to take the hollowed out of | :12:23. | :12:27. | |
the water. We'll take some hours but then will come the work to tie the | :12:28. | :12:31. | |
oil rig firmly to the deck before it's transported away to Turkey. The | :12:32. | :12:36. | |
forecast for the next few days is unusually benign for the north west | :12:37. | :12:40. | |
Scotland and today temperatures reached 18 Celsius as salvage teams | :12:41. | :12:49. | |
watched. Salvage will start perhaps later tonight and suddenly tomorrow | :12:50. | :12:53. | |
morning, making sure the rig is securely fastened to the deck before | :12:54. | :12:56. | |
the next move, which should take it out of Tim Peake -- out of Broad | :12:57. | :13:03. | |
Bay. If the weather is favourable we will stay here to do the fastenings. | :13:04. | :13:07. | |
If it looks as though it's going to change, we may take her round | :13:08. | :13:11. | |
towards Stornoway. But the plan is to keep her there. The unexpected | :13:12. | :13:17. | |
arrival of the rig in August has brought many benefits to Highland | :13:18. | :13:23. | |
businesses. In the next few days, the rig and the ship will be | :13:24. | :13:26. | |
scrutinised closely before it begins its journey to Turkey. | :13:27. | :13:28. | |

Judges and sheriffs are to be given new guidelines to ensure consistency | :13:54. | :13:56. | |
It's part of a move to improve public confidence | :13:57. | :14:02. | |
Our Home Affairs Correspondent, Reevel Alderson reports. | :14:03. | :14:14. | |
How do sheriffs and judges decide what sentence to pass? There are a | :14:15. | :14:21. | |
number of factors they have to take into consideration. I will discount | :14:22. | :14:24. | |
the sentence for the reasons I have indicated, namely the degree of | :14:25. | :14:30. | |
guilt in advance of trial, the expression of remorse... But cameras | :14:31. | :14:34. | |
are rarely and loud in Scottish courts so few people here these | :14:35. | :14:39. | |
reasons. Even then, like in the case of the death of business, victims or | :14:40. | :14:45. | |
families can feel that the judge got it wrong. -- the death of this | :14:46. | :14:50. | |
nurse. The driver in this case was jailed for six years, which his | :14:51. | :14:56. | |
victim's family called a sick joke. The Scottish sentencing council is | :14:57. | :14:59. | |
working on ways to ensure that judges impose a fair sentence, | :15:00. | :15:04. | |
particularly in driving cases, and to explain to the public are are | :15:05. | :15:09. | |
arrived at. The range is something I think people have difficulty getting | :15:10. | :15:14. | |
to blame -- to grips with. The blame worthiness can vary hugely, but of | :15:15. | :15:18. | |
course the impact and affect on members of the public is enormous | :15:19. | :15:24. | |
and it's an area in which the public has considerable interest and | :15:25. | :15:26. | |
judges, because of the wide range of offences can be encompassed, have | :15:27. | :15:31. | |
considerable anxiety about sentencing. Wood sentencing in | :15:32. | :15:38. | |
wildlife crimes are also to be studied. -- sentencing in wildlife | :15:39. | :15:43. | |
crimes are also to be studied. Victims groups have welcomed this | :15:44. | :15:48. | |
work is in positive mood. For far too long, victims of crime and the | :15:49. | :15:51. | |
general public have had very little understanding of what the sentencing | :15:52. | :15:56. | |
decision process is, and that has caused confusion is potentially a | :15:57. | :16:01. | |
perception of inaccurate practice or inconsistencies in practice across | :16:02. | :16:04. | |
Scotland. We feel strongly that this will counteract that. Be sentencing | :16:05. | :16:10. | |
council hopes that its work will make the decisions of courts easier | :16:11. | :16:12. | |
for the public to understand. Feeding people is a very important | :16:13. | :16:16. | |
part of the Sikh religion, and every temple offers free food | :16:17. | :16:19. | |
to anyone who goes there. This week, Sikhs across the world | :16:20. | :16:21. | |
are taking this principle a step further by serving free food - | :16:22. | :16:24. | |
known as Langar - on the streets They hope to target those in need, | :16:25. | :16:28. | |
and to promote peace. These women in Edinburgh meet every | :16:29. | :16:46. | |
week to prepare food for anyone who comes to the temple, regardless of | :16:47. | :16:51. | |
faith or background. And, for the past two years, they have been | :16:52. | :16:52. | |
making extra portions on Wednesday past two years, they have been | :16:53. | :16:56. | |
to take onto the streets of the capital. We make a curry with | :16:57. | :17:02. | |
potatoes and rice. We make lentils and rice. We also give hot tea, | :17:03. | :17:12. | |
Coffey, hot chocolate, sweets, biscuits. We are here to serve the | :17:13. | :17:18. | |

Coffey, hot chocolate, sweets, the centre of Edinburgh for anyone | :17:21. | :17:27. | |
who is hungry to come and eat. In this Langar Week, the scene is being | :17:28. | :17:32. | |
repeated in many countries. Some people are busy and we thought we | :17:33. | :17:38. | |
would do Langar Week every year. We are Sikhs who are here. Giving out | :17:39. | :17:45. | |
food and water. We are here to help anyone in anyway. The smell and | :17:46. | :17:52. | |
taste of the carriers cheering up an autumn evening. Many people seek | :17:53. | :17:57. | |
Langar as a welcome service. It is terrific. It is very charitable. | :17:58. | :18:07. | |
Bighearted of them. If it was not for themselves, the homeless would | :18:08. | :18:12. | |
be hungry on a Wednesday night. Even after Langar Week the Sikhs in | :18:13. | :18:19. | |
Edinburgh are hoping to increase the amount of free street food they | :18:20. | :18:20. | |
provide. A look now at other stories | :18:21. | :18:22. | |
from across the country. The death of a trawlerman | :18:23. | :18:24. | |
who was "catapulted" overboard while working on deck, | :18:25. | :18:26. | |
was "entirely forseeable" according The crew member - | :18:27. | :18:28. | |
Annang Nuerty from Ghana - was on the Aquarius off Aberdeen | :18:29. | :18:34. | |

hazardous" procedure. The long-running legal dispute over | :18:41. | :18:46. | |

from Tapa in Leith. At first the owners thought | :20:05. | :20:12. | |
the bucket had been misplaced, but they checked their CCTV when it | :20:13. | :20:14. | |
failed to turn up two weeks later. As Scotland's footballers prepare | :20:15. | :20:18. | |
for their home match in the 2018 World Cup qualifiers, | :20:19. | :20:28. | |
the manager's been talking about how he deals with | :20:29. | :20:29. | |
the stresses of the job. Ahead of the game against Lithuania | :20:30. | :20:35. | |
at Hampden, Gordon Strachan also told us there's a serious purpose | :20:36. | :20:38. | |
to the confrontational way Far from the madding crowd and away | :20:39. | :20:57. | |
from prying eyes, apart from the chap on the bike, the Scotland squad | :20:58. | :21:02. | |
look relaxed at their training camp. So does the manager. However... I | :21:03. | :21:05. | |
just have to qualify from the will just have to qualify from the will | :21:06. | :21:11. | |
-- for the World Cup. I need to make sure I can protect my family. It can | :21:12. | :21:16. | |
affect you. It can affect the people round about me. It can affect how I | :21:17. | :21:21. | |
train with the players, how I treat the players and the staff. Yet the | :21:22. | :21:27. | |
man in charge admits to being less worried about how he treats his | :21:28. | :21:32. | |
media inquisitors. It is a battlefield out there. People don't | :21:33. | :21:36. | |
realise, it is usually 32 against one. The 32 are looking for a | :21:37. | :21:40. | |
headline and I need to try to protect my players at all times. He | :21:41. | :21:46. | |
is adept at deploying the verbal custard pie, cutting a line of | :21:47. | :21:50. | |
questioning dead. Last week he was asked about the resignation of Sam | :21:51. | :21:55. | |
Allardyce. I do not think anyone is interested in 15 seconds of answers. | :21:56. | :22:03. | |
Another weaponry that is not a weapon in the armoury is the decoy. | :22:04. | :22:10. | |
A lot has changed since 2007. Who would have thought you would have an | :22:11. | :22:17. | |
iWatch. It is a game. Sometimes you get that headline you want and it | :22:18. | :22:21. | |
makes me feel terrible for two days. The sound bite, something that makes | :22:22. | :22:26. | |
me feel terrible, or I win and I just give the information pertinent | :22:27. | :22:30. | |
for that news conference and I win. I hope, at the end of the day, you | :22:31. | :22:35. | |
put your hands up and think, that was a good fight. We will see you | :22:36. | :22:39. | |
next week for the next round. The next round is tomorrow. Mr Strachan | :22:40. | :22:44. | |
will take on reporters in his pre-match conference for the game | :22:45. | :22:46. | |
against Lithuania on Saturday. The hit comedy Still Game returns | :22:47. | :22:49. | |
to the small screen tomorrow night. Ford Kiernan and Greg Hemphill - | :22:50. | :22:52. | |
who first created the show for the stage at the Edinburgh Festival - | :22:53. | :22:55. | |
say they decided to revive Jack and Victor after the huge success | :22:56. | :22:58. | |
of their live show two years ago. Our arts correspondent, | :22:59. | :23:02. | |
Pauline McLean, reports. It is nine years since they were | :23:03. | :23:15. | |
last on screen but fans cannot get enough of Jack and V. 100,000 people | :23:16. | :23:22. | |
applied for tickets to see the first episode at the Glasgow cinema. It is | :23:23. | :23:29. | |
just Scottish humour. All the good comedy. Everyone getting together to | :23:30. | :23:35. | |
watch it. We'll want to get together and have fun as a family. The | :23:36. | :23:42. | |
characters remain 75 but the world around them has changed. We said, | :23:43. | :23:44. | |
characters remain 75 but the world who would have the internet out of | :23:45. | :23:50. | |
all these characters? This was Google before Google or she would | :23:51. | :23:59. | |
know all about everyone. Who is it, please? But the internet has also | :24:00. | :24:06. | |
given the show and international platform and a massive new following | :24:07. | :24:10. | |
was two years ago, they returned to the stage with a sell-out run at the | :24:11. | :24:18. | |
Hydro. They have since announced another live show. We had a good | :24:19. | :24:23. | |
idea from when they wrote at the Edinburgh Festival all ago there was | :24:24. | :24:27. | |
something that could travel. We took it to Canada and Dublin. We took it | :24:28. | :24:33. | |
to Canada. The North of England. All over. The characters have heart stop | :24:34. | :24:37. | |
people have their favourites. They love them. Maybe they all know some | :24:38. | :24:44. | |
like those characters. They love the way they interact. We are fans of | :24:45. | :24:49. | |
shows which make you feel good rather than cynical or whatever. We | :24:50. | :24:56. | |
like sitcoms where you can lose yourself for half an hour with a | :24:57. | :24:59. | |
bunch of people you feel like you know. We could see a few more | :25:00. | :25:04. | |
series? Are you going to keep going till you are 75? We will put the | :25:05. | :25:13. | |
make up on a money in our pockets. Good stuff. | :25:14. | :25:19. | |
Time now for the latest weather forecast. | :25:20. | :25:21. | |
Another beautiful day across the country. On the satellite we did | :25:22. | :25:29. | |
have some cloud melting away to allow much more in red sunshine. The | :25:30. | :25:35. | |
best in the sunshine in the north-west where temperatures | :25:36. | :25:37. | |
reached 17 Celsius, well above the seasonal average. Making it one of | :25:38. | :25:43. | |
the warmer spots across the whole of the UK. Here is the proof. Glorious | :25:44. | :25:48. | |
pictures from one of our weather watchers in Fort William in the | :25:49. | :25:52. | |
Highlands. This evening and overnight it is staying largely dry. | :25:53. | :25:58. | |
The cloud will tend to increase, coming in on fresh, south-easterly | :25:59. | :26:03. | |
winds. The cloud may be thick enough for one or two showers, most likely | :26:04. | :26:07. | |
across southern parts of the borders and the Solway coast. Under clearer | :26:08. | :26:13. | |
skies, temperatures could dip down to three - six Celsius. Tomorrow | :26:14. | :26:19. | |
morning fairly cloudy to start. Any showers will die away and we will | :26:20. | :26:23. | |
see much more in the way of sunshine especially by the afternoon. The | :26:24. | :26:26. | |
best of it will be across the north-west of the country. Towards | :26:27. | :26:32. | |
4pm tomorrow, a good deal around for Shetland. Still breezy for Orkney. A | :26:33. | :26:38. | |
bit of an east/ West split. In the east, more in the way of cloud and | :26:39. | :26:42. | |
sunny spells. The best of the sunshine further towards the West. | :26:43. | :26:47. | |
Temperatures around 13, to maybe 15, 16 degrees. High pressure is | :26:48. | :26:53. | |
dominating our weather across Scandinavia and towards Norway. The | :26:54. | :26:56. | |
wind direction does become more of an easterly as we look to the end of | :26:57. | :27:00. | |
the week and the weekend. Drawing in more in the way of cloud and also | :27:01. | :27:04. | |
the risk of a few showers. By the time you reach the weekend, there | :27:05. | :27:08. | |
will still be plenty of sunshine, most likely towards the west of the | :27:09. | :27:11. | |
country. In the Eastern increase chance of just a few light showers. | :27:12. | :27:15. | |
For all of us as we head through to the weekend, it will turn a little | :27:16. | :27:21. | |
cooler. Temperatures back down to average by Sunday. That is the | :27:22. | :27:22. | |
forecast. Now, a reminder of | :27:23. | :27:23. | |
tonight's main news. Scottish nurse Pauline Cafferkey, | :27:24. | :27:28. | |
who contracted the the Ebola virus She was taken to hospital | :27:29. | :27:31. | |
from her home by ambulance under police escort earlier today | :27:32. | :27:35. | |
after becoming ill. I'll be back with | :27:36. | :27:37. | |
the headlines at 8. And the late bulletin just | :27:38. | :27:40. | |
after the Ten O'clock News. Until then, from everyone | :27:41. | :27:42. | |
on the team - right across the country - | :27:43. | :27:44. | |
have a very good evening. | :27:45. | :27:46. |
