He'd already scooped the prize last year and in 2013.

:00:10.:00:16.

Tonight's win at the star-studded arena event in Birmingham capped

:00:17.:00:18.

an amazing year for the Scot, as Suzanne Allan reports.

:00:19.:00:30.

And the BBC Sports Personality of the Year 2016 is Andy Murray.

:00:31.:00:39.

On top of the world and now I can top in our hearts. For a man who has

:00:40.:00:44.

been called surly, he won the ultimate test of public appreciation

:00:45.:00:50.

for the third time. His acceptance speech was typical Andy Murray.

:00:51.:00:55.

I would like to see a huge thanks to my wife for all of her support over

:00:56.:00:59.

the years, and my daughter, who will not know what this means yet but

:01:00.:01:02.

the years, and my daughter, who will maybe in a view years. She will

:01:03.:01:06.

appreciate it. I have a bone to pick with my wife, because she told me

:01:07.:01:10.

one hour ago she voted for Nick Skelton. Not smart from her, with

:01:11.:01:17.

Christmas almost here. What a year he has had. A second

:01:18.:01:22.

Wimbledon men's title and another Olympic tennis when in Rio Olympics.

:01:23.:01:27.

And he finished the year as world number one for the first time. Not

:01:28.:01:32.

to mention becoming a dad. It is a far cry from the 14-year-old boy at

:01:33.:01:39.

his local club in Dunblane. Hopefully I will be playing in

:01:40.:01:45.

London in about four years, and senior Wimbledon and maybe Junior

:01:46.:01:50.

Wimbledon in two years, and that is my ambition.

:01:51.:01:53.

He has done that and more. Here is two 2017.

:01:54.:01:55.

The former First Minister Alex Salmond has said a second

:01:56.:01:57.

independence referendum can be won, even though polls currently

:01:58.:01:59.

indicate most voters want to stay in the Union.

:02:00.:02:02.

He was speaking as the Scottish Government gets ready to set

:02:03.:02:04.

out its plan for Scotland's future relationship with

:02:05.:02:06.

Nicola Sturgeon has been weighing up Scotland's options since the UK

:02:07.:02:14.

On Tuesday she will set out her Brexit plan -

:02:15.:02:21.

at its heart, the aim of keeping Scotland

:02:22.:02:22.

The First Minister says her preferred option

:02:23.:02:28.

is for Scotland to stay in the EU as an independent country.

:02:29.:02:31.

The polls currently indicate most Scots voters do not want that.

:02:32.:02:35.

Alex Salmond says that does not matter.

:02:36.:02:40.

When I embarked on this process, support for independence was 28%.

:02:41.:02:44.

After two years, 2012, we ended up at 45%.

:02:45.:02:50.

I don't think she would have any compunction on calling

:02:51.:02:53.

an independence referendum - what matters is the arguments.

:02:54.:03:02.

Some say that Salmond's opinions have cause more confusion.

:03:03.:03:06.

The SNP are all over the place on this.

:03:07.:03:09.

Two weeks ago they said the long-awaited stay

:03:10.:03:14.

in the single market was to be a member state of the EU

:03:15.:03:17.

Nicola Sturgeon says her Brexit plan will set out the full range

:03:18.:03:31.

of options but she has plans for a possible second

:03:32.:03:33.

A woman killed in a car crash in Fife has been named
