Welcome to Wednesday's Reporting Scotland. Tonight on your national | :00:14. | :00:15. | |
news. The Lockerbie bomber's appearance | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
on Libyan television prompts renewed criticism of the decision | :00:18. | :00:23. | |
to release him. Helping victims of rape -- a | :00:24. | :00:26. | |
leading prosecutor warns against changes that might affect improving | :00:26. | :00:32. | |
conviction rates. Calls for a national smart | :00:32. | :00:35. | |
ticketing system to encourage more use of public transport. | :00:35. | :00:39. | |
And left in a spin - the kitten that survived an hour-long cycle in | :00:39. | :00:48. | |
its owner's washing machine. I just grabbed a towel and held her close | :00:48. | :00:54. | |
to me. She was totally shaking, totally shocked, I think. | :00:54. | :00:57. | |
The decision to release the Lockerbie bomber has come in for | :00:57. | :00:59. | |
renewed criticism after Libyan television broadcast pictures which | :00:59. | :01:06. | |
appeared to show him at a pro- government rally in Tripoli. It's | :01:06. | :01:08. | |
nearly two years since Abdelbaset al-Megrahi was freed from Greenock | :01:08. | :01:10. | |
prison on compassionate grounds, after being diagnosed with terminal | :01:10. | :01:20. | |
cancer. These are the pictures said they | :01:20. | :01:24. | |
have been shown live on Libyan television yesterday. Do they | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
appear to short Abdelbaset al- megrahi as up -- at a pro- | :01:28. | :01:35. | |
government rally. They described his conviction as a result of a | :01:35. | :01:39. | |
conspiracy, but it is very appearance that has ignited a | :01:39. | :01:42. | |
controversy. This was absolutely the wrong thing to do. It shows the | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
medical advice it was based on it was pretty much worthless. I think | :01:46. | :01:50. | |
many people, particularly the families of those killed at | :01:50. | :01:55. | |
Lockerbie, will feel anger and outrage at this release which will | :01:55. | :01:59. | |
be further intensified by what we have seen. Abdelbaset al-megrahi | :01:59. | :02:02. | |
had served nearly eight years of a 27 year sentence, after being | :02:02. | :02:12. | |
:02:12. | :02:15. | ||
convicted of killing 270 people. Almost exactly two years ago, | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
Abdelbaset al-megrahi was released from Greenock prison on | :02:18. | :02:22. | |
compassionate grounds, and allowed to return home to Libya. Today, the | :02:22. | :02:29. | |
man who took that decision on his own, reiterated his position. | :02:29. | :02:33. | |
Cancer is an inexact science. What is undeniable and what nobody | :02:33. | :02:38. | |
disputes, is that he is terminally ill with prostate cancer. The date | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
of death is beyond my powers to decide, but it is undeniable that | :02:42. | :02:46. | |
he is terminally ill. He maintains he took his decision based on a | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
report from the Scottish Prison Service's most senior medical | :02:50. | :02:54. | |
officer. His clinical assessment at the time was that a reasonable | :02:54. | :03:00. | |
prognosis for this patient would be about three months. With the second | :03:00. | :03:03. | |
anniversary of Abdelbaset al- megrahi's release coming up, | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
opposition politicians are once again demanding to see it | :03:07. | :03:11. | |
Abdelbaset al-megrahi's personal records. It is clear the medical | :03:11. | :03:16. | |
evidence on which decision was based was flawed. We need to see | :03:16. | :03:19. | |
the medical evidence which we have never seen. This was a bad decision | :03:19. | :03:24. | |
and a wrong decision, it was also badly taken at the time. The new | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
pictures have affected the victim's families on both sides of the | :03:28. | :03:34. | |
families on both sides of the Atlantic. Seeing him at essentially | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
well and out in public almost two well and out in public almost two | :03:38. | :03:44. | |
years after he had his death sentence is just disgraceful. The | :03:44. | :03:49. | |
mother of another victim told me it she saw a relief to see that he was | :03:49. | :03:56. | |
still being looked after. Only 3% of rape allegations leading | :03:56. | :03:59. | |
to a conviction in court - that's the figure which led the last Lord | :03:59. | :04:02. | |
Advocate to take action. That rate has begun to improve. Of 528 | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
reported rapes in the most recent year for which figures are | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
available, 179 went to court, resulting in 56 convictions, a | :04:08. | :04:13. | |
conviction rate of 10.6%. Now the man who's stepping down as the head | :04:13. | :04:16. | |
of Europe's first specialist unit for the investigation of serious | :04:16. | :04:18. | |
sex crimes says politicians must be cautious if they're considering | :04:18. | :04:21. | |
changing the way rape is prosecuted. Our Home Affairs Correspondent, | :04:21. | :04:31. | |
:04:31. | :04:35. | ||
Reevel Alderson has this exclusive report. | :04:35. | :04:39. | |
What I'd like to do first of all was talk about what we can do for | :04:39. | :04:47. | |
you here but Mac reporting rape is always difficult. Not only does the | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
victim have to relive the experience, there is always the | :04:50. | :04:54. | |
fear they will not find justice. This man has sought a revolution in | :04:54. | :04:59. | |
the way rape allegations are treated. I cannot make the trial of | :04:59. | :05:01. | |
getting experience for them. They will always have to go back in | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
their mind and think about what happened. What I can do is provide | :05:05. | :05:12. | |
an environment which is respectful, and also dignified for them. | :05:12. | :05:15. | |
Supportive and which allow them the best way possible to tell their | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
story. The archway and Glasgow Scotland's only centre offering a | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
one-stop shop for rape victims to tell their story, up to seven days | :05:25. | :05:32. | |
after they were attacked. It is a safe environment for victims, who | :05:32. | :05:36. | |
can receive treatment and counselling and also gather | :05:36. | :05:42. | |
evidence. The number of cases here is up almost 60%, a measure of | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
growing confidence that rape allegations will be believed. | :05:46. | :05:50. | |
night, I saw a client and as she left she said, I can't believe I'm | :05:50. | :05:55. | |
here but thank you for making it a bit more bearable. We get that kind | :05:55. | :05:59. | |
of feedback quite a lot. Ministers are considering changing a lot | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
further to improve the rape conviction rate, bike ending the | :06:03. | :06:10. | |
requirement for corroboration. Appointed finger of sexual | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
impropriety can destroy someone's livelihood, a reputation, even if | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
the case ever got to court. You could be subject to vilification | :06:17. | :06:23. | |
from the moment the accusation is made, and there is no anonymity. We | :06:23. | :06:27. | |
take very seriously the responsibility we have before | :06:27. | :06:31. | |
launching an allegation, a prosecution or asking the jury for | :06:31. | :06:36. | |
a conviction. Prosecutors and doctors insist their working on | :06:36. | :06:38. | |
making reporting a terrible crime less traumatic. | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
A man has been sentenced to life in prison for a sex attack on a 16- | :06:43. | :06:45. | |
year-old who was out walking the family dog. Kevin Mathers | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
threatened to slit the teenager's throat when he subjected her to a | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
violent assault on a footpath in Edinburgh last June. At the High | :06:51. | :06:54. | |
Court in Edinburgh, Mathers was told he would have to serve at | :06:54. | :06:59. | |
least three and a half years before he can apply for parole. | :06:59. | :07:01. | |

In sport, we'll reflect on last night's disappointing European | :07:11. | :07:15. | |
result for Rangers. Scotland head off to the rugby world cup minus | :07:15. | :07:19. | |
one of their more experienced players. And the world's leading | :07:19. | :07:21. | |

headgear and colourful club covers A Loyalist organisation is offering | :07:32. | :07:36. | |
to back down on plans to hold marches close to Celtic Park just | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
as football fans are leaving a match. Instead the Royal Black | :07:39. | :07:44. | |
Institution is prepared to hold their parades earlier. The offer | :07:44. | :07:46. | |
comes as councillors prepare to meet to discuss whether to allow | :07:46. | :07:49. | |
the processions. Our local government correspondent Jamie | :07:49. | :07:54. | |
McIvor is outside Glasgow Council's headquarters. What exactly did the | :07:54. | :08:04. | |
:08:04. | :08:05. | ||
institution want to do? August 13th this year is a big day | :08:05. | :08:09. | |
for them. It is a day they hold a big match in Glasgow followed by a | :08:09. | :08:13. | |
number of smaller marches as the people taking part make their way | :08:13. | :08:18. | |
home. The issue was with four of these 29 smaller march is, because | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
the it they would have taken would have gone through states close to | :08:22. | :08:26. | |
Celtic Park, around the same time that the final whistle would have | :08:26. | :08:31. | |
worn at the end of Celtic verses Dundee United. You were potentially | :08:31. | :08:36. | |
talking about a situation where you had thousands of football fans and | :08:36. | :08:39. | |
marchers in the same area. This could have led their extra pressure | :08:39. | :08:44. | |
on the police and what was likely to be a busy police -- weekend for | :08:44. | :08:48. | |
the place anyway. As things stood, the Council was expected to reject | :08:48. | :08:54. | |
the proposals for these are thought marches. They moved for a | :08:54. | :08:59. | |
compromise? The institution is offering to bring forward the | :08:59. | :09:03. | |
timing of these marches by about an hour, so they will be taking place | :09:03. | :09:07. | |
while the game is being played. The council has still not said whether | :09:07. | :09:12. | |
or not they would accept that offer, but the institution is hope for | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
that by bringing forward the timing, it deals with some of the concerns | :09:16. | :09:20. | |
that did exist. If an amicable deal between the different parties is | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
not stuck tonight, then the council is expected to reach a final | :09:23. | :09:27. | |
decision tomorrow. A teenager has been arrested in | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
Shetland in connection with alleged illegal computer hacking. Officers | :09:30. | :09:33. | |
from Metropolitan Police say they arrested the 19-year-old as part of | :09:33. | :09:37. | |
a pre-planned intelligence-led operation. Detectives believe he's | :09:37. | :09:39. | |
linked to an ongoing international investigation into so-called | :09:39. | :09:42. | |
'hacktivist' groups, who carry out cyber attacks on businesses and | :09:42. | :09:50. | |
intelligence agencies. A man who sparked a major air, land | :09:50. | :09:54. | |
and sea search with a hoax call to the emergency services has been | :09:54. | :09:57. | |
sentenced to 200 hours community service. 19-year-old David | :09:57. | :10:00. | |
Williamson from Shetland had been drinking for 12 hours when he | :10:00. | :10:05. | |
broadcast a mayday message claiming someone had fallen overboard. Mike | :10:05. | :10:14. | |
Grundon reports. On 3rd October last year, Shetland | :10:14. | :10:16. | |
coastguard received a Mayday message saying someone had fallen | :10:16. | :10:23. | |
into water off the coast. A rescue helicopter, a lifeboat and cliff | :10:23. | :10:27. | |
rescue teams were all called out. It was an hour before it was | :10:27. | :10:32. | |
identified as a hoax and had cost an estimated �13,000. In court | :10:32. | :10:36. | |
today was 19-year-old David Williamson, the man responsible for | :10:36. | :10:40. | |
the hoax call it. In a previous appearance, the court was told he | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
had been drinking for 12 hours before making the call. He had been | :10:43. | :10:46. | |
warned he would be sent to prison and he was back today for | :10:46. | :10:51. | |
sentencing. His defence agent said Williamson had made a donation and | :10:51. | :10:55. | |
had set up a standing order for �250 a month to the charity with | :10:55. | :10:59. | |
the intention of paying off the cost of the operation. He also | :10:59. | :11:02. | |
offered to do voluntary work for the lifeboats and made a public | :11:02. | :11:07. | |
apology. The share for the them to do 200 hours of community service. | :11:07. | :11:12. | |
The local coastguard say the sentence is appropriate. | :11:12. | :11:15. | |
implication is that taking away rescue teams and helicopters and | :11:15. | :11:19. | |
lifeboats, away from potential, real incidents, which could have | :11:19. | :11:23. | |
course put people's lives at risk. You're also put in the lives of | :11:23. | :11:27. | |
their helicopter crew, lifeboat crew and coastguard teams at risk | :11:27. | :11:32. | |
by con them out to something. It was a stupid idea. The Sheriff said | :11:32. | :11:36. | |
he did not want to give the impression someone could just buy | :11:36. | :11:39. | |
their way out of trouble, but it was clear in this occasion he was | :11:39. | :11:44. | |
remorse fault -- remorseful and has tried to repair the damage done. | :11:44. | :11:46. | |
Some of the other stories across Scotland this Wednesday: | :11:46. | :11:49. | |
A �6.5 million programme to promote Scotland on the world stage before | :11:49. | :11:52. | |
the Commonwealth Games has been announced. The three-year plan aims | :11:52. | :11:54. | |
to increase international and domestic tourism and showcase the | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
creative industries. Scientists in Glasgow have | :11:58. | :12:01. | |
developed a DNA test which shows the effects of social factors, like | :12:01. | :12:04. | |
diet, on the ageing process. They measured the tail ends of | :12:04. | :12:06. | |
chromosomes, known as telomeres, and found they became shorter for | :12:06. | :12:09. | |
people on low incomes and poor diets. The tests can't forecast | :12:09. | :12:12. | |
individual life expectancy but they can show a trend within population | :12:12. | :12:22. | |
:12:22. | :12:24. | ||
There is a warning that Scotland's sporran industry is being | :12:24. | :12:28. | |
threatened by China buying up raw materials. Kilt makers say | :12:28. | :12:31. | |
increasing demand is driving up the price of sporrans and could lead to | :12:31. | :12:34. | |
job losses in the industry. The rising price of pewter is also | :12:34. | :12:44. | |
:12:44. | :12:44. | ||
being blamed. Campaigners are calling for a | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
national smart ticketing system, to encourage more of us to use public | :12:48. | :12:51. | |
transport. They say the introduction of a Scottish | :12:51. | :12:54. | |
equivalent to London's Oyster card would make it easier for passengers | :12:54. | :12:57. | |
to use buses and trains without having to search for change or | :12:57. | :12:59. | |
worry about buying the cheapest ticket. Our transport correspondent | :12:59. | :13:09. | |
took a journey by bus, train and subway to find out more. | :13:09. | :13:13. | |
Public transport, accusing it is not always as easy as it could be, | :13:13. | :13:17. | |
but worries about buying the cheapest ticket, or searching for | :13:17. | :13:23. | |
the right change could soon be a thing of the past. To get to | :13:23. | :13:27. | |
Edinburgh from Glasgow I have had to buy three separate tickets. | :13:27. | :13:32. | |
Campaigners say it should be much more easier and this could be the | :13:32. | :13:37. | |
answer. London's Oyster card allows passengers to make journeys on all | :13:37. | :13:41. | |
types of different transport. The cards are loaded with cash in | :13:41. | :13:48. | |
advance and can be topped up automatically. As if you have the | :13:48. | :13:53. | |
flexibility to jump on and off the buses, whichever mode of transport | :13:53. | :14:00. | |
suits you, we think you are more likely to use public transport and | :14:00. | :14:04. | |
see it as an alternative. The class goes some way will be using smart | :14:04. | :14:09. | |
ticketing within the next two year for Stubbs Macro the class go some | :14:09. | :14:19. | |
:14:19. | :14:27. | ||
way. Macro v Glasgow subway. A There is no reason why we cannot do | :14:27. | :14:33. | |
exactly the same in Scotland. technology needed is already being | :14:33. | :14:40. | |
used at this company. Bosses say there are exciting times ahead. | :14:40. | :14:44. | |
Adding it will revolutionise the way we use public transport. Macro | :14:44. | :14:49. | |
I think it will revolution at Macro I think it will revolutionise the | :14:49. | :14:59. | |
:14:59. | :15:04. | ||
way we use a... For millions of pounds have already been put in to | :15:04. | :15:11. | |
the scheme. Hell is set in Disneyland, Noah's | :15:11. | :15:14. | |

Edinburgh Council's blockbuster art exhibition which opens this weekend. | :15:25. | :15:28. | |
Fife-born artist David Mach is staging his largest solo show with | :15:28. | :15:31. | |
collages and sculptures translating the Bible into modern art. We have | :15:31. | :15:41. | |
:15:41. | :15:46. | ||
been for a look. And Christ is going to meet Macro... | :15:46. | :15:53. | |
NASA seems a good and evil and right and wrong are being explored. | :15:53. | :16:00. | |
I wanted to talk about today. The material is very now and it is a | :16:00. | :16:07. | |
contemporary version of the Bible. Taking the mickey or serious | :16:07. | :16:14. | |
scrutiny of the scriptures's this one is called Hell, Disneyland. | :16:14. | :16:22. | |
Edinburgh is the setting for Noah's Ark. There are 70 or 80 of these | :16:22. | :16:28. | |
things. We looked very hard on this but I want you to work hard as well. | :16:28. | :16:32. | |
They are amusing and challenging. Some of them are not easy to look | :16:32. | :16:41. | |
at. The depth and artistry are unusual. David Mach has invested | :16:41. | :16:45. | |
millions of pounds into his own show and he is creating a | :16:45. | :16:50. | |
monumental last supper here using photos and scalpels in front of the | :16:50. | :16:58. | |
visiting public. People give you things. It tells you about who you | :16:58. | :17:03. | |
are and how you live in the world. It is amazing. I think it is | :17:03. | :17:08. | |
terrific. There is so much to see. The stories are stories that | :17:08. | :17:15. | |
everybody knows. Seeing them illustrated this way brings them to | :17:15. | :17:25. | |
:17:25. | :17:27. | ||
life. This man will soon move on to the, Sutra after this project. | :17:27. | :17:30. | |

Zoo is taking an unusual approach to his triathlon training. Here is | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
Rob Thomas doing his swimming practice In the penguin pool. The | :17:37. | :17:39. | |
penguins seem understandably curious about the new addition to | :17:39. | :17:42. | |
their team, but as the zoo boasts the largest outdoor penguin pool in | :17:42. | :17:52. | |
:17:52. | :17:55. | ||
the world, there should be plenty of room for them all. Here is Jane | :17:55. | :17:58. | |
with the sport. The Rangers boss Ally McCoist says | :17:58. | :18:01. | |
he is confident his side can score in Sweden next week to keep his | :18:01. | :18:05. | |
side's Champions League dream alive. The Ibrox side lost one - nil at | :18:05. | :18:08. | |
home to Malmo last night. And they will have to upset the odds and re- | :18:08. | :18:18. | |
write history to progress. It was terrible. I have not seen a | :18:18. | :18:25. | |
performance like that in a long time. Lack of goals. David Nazma | :18:25. | :18:33. | |
missed two tries as well. I do not think we should be criticising so | :18:33. | :18:39. | |
early on. We are just getting started. It is early days. There | :18:39. | :18:47. | |
was plenty of optimism before the game last night. It took just 70 | :18:47. | :18:57. | |
:18:57. | :18:57. | ||
minutes for the dark clouds together. The Rangers are a leading | :18:57. | :19:01. | |
a goal of their own next week. not think there is any doubt about | :19:01. | :19:08. | |
it. We have created enough chances. On another night we certainly could | :19:08. | :19:14. | |
have done two or three goals. day after the night before and in | :19:14. | :19:17. | |
the hot and sticky summer sunshine some fairly uncomfortable | :19:17. | :19:26. | |
statistics for the Rangers fans to digest. They had yet to overturn a | :19:26. | :19:32. | |
first-leg defeat in Europe. They will have to reverse that trend | :19:32. | :19:39. | |
with no fans from home travelling with them. There has been a fan of | :19:39. | :19:42. | |
band. That means the manager will be spared the booze if the worst | :19:42. | :19:49. | |
happens. A fight for Champions League so rival is on. | :19:49. | :19:52. | |
Scotland full-back Hugo Southwell will miss this autumn's World Cup | :19:52. | :19:55. | |
due to injury. Southwell, who has 59 caps, has not played for | :19:55. | :19:57. | |
Scotland since February and has been battling to get fit after | :19:57. | :20:00. | |
injuring his knee in May while playing for his then employers | :20:00. | :20:03. | |
Stade Francais. Southwell is now without a club and that coupled | :20:03. | :20:13. | |
with his lack of fitness means he will miss the World Cup. Looking at | :20:13. | :20:18. | |
his situation, he has not got a club at the moment, looking at his | :20:18. | :20:23. | |
rugby career, we just felt that where we are as a club, where he is, | :20:23. | :20:30. | |
he is improving. It was right for him. But we came to the decision | :20:30. | :20:40. | |
:20:40. | :20:48. | ||
rugby wise that he would not be part of the squad. We have been | :20:48. | :20:53. | |
catching up with the British Women's Open. There are some strong | :20:53. | :20:58. | |
international players. In other big tournament but few | :20:58. | :21:06. | |
know who to welcome. Can you name any top lady golfers? No. Not off | :21:06. | :21:15. | |
the top of my head! But there are big names here. Taiwan's number one | :21:15. | :21:21. | |
is defending her title. Laura Davies from England has one of four | :21:21. | :21:26. | |
majors. Many will have heard other this American sensation. I am just | :21:26. | :21:33. | |
excited to be here. I think it is going to be a good week. | :21:33. | :21:38. | |
women's event is certainly different. Stylish and colourful | :21:38. | :21:45. | |
Macro colourful, even the club covers are worth a second look. | :21:45. | :21:52. | |
There are 25 nationalities here, topped by Korea and the USA. | :21:52. | :21:58. | |
Scotland has four in the field. Katrina Matthew is hoping to repeat | :21:58. | :22:04. | |
her success. I am playing the best golf I have ever played. I think if | :22:04. | :22:09. | |
I play well and putt well there is no reason why I cannot win. | :22:09. | :22:14. | |
came out after having her second child and here I am after having my | :22:14. | :22:20. | |
second child only four months ago so hopefully it will be wonderful. | :22:20. | :22:29. | |
Over the years, there have been some memorable moments. The course | :22:29. | :22:39. | |

is known as a massive challenge for That is all the sport for now. | :22:42. | :22:45. | |
Now for a tale of survival. A kitten is recovering after being | :22:45. | :22:48. | |
stuck in a washing machine cycle for almost an hour. Eight-week-old | :22:48. | :22:51. | |
Princess jumped in when her owner turned her back and ended up going | :22:51. | :22:54. | |
for a spin with a load of laundry. The cat, from Aberdeen, was | :22:55. | :22:58. | |
battered and bruised, but is now very much on the mend. We went to | :22:58. | :23:08. | |
meet her. Princess, getting the Royal pampering treatment. She is | :23:08. | :23:13. | |
back where she was brought when she was on the brink of death. It all | :23:13. | :23:18. | |
started when her owner was doing some laundry. I 3D clothes into the | :23:18. | :23:25. | |
machine. I must have turned my back. I was doing something else. I do | :23:25. | :23:31. | |
not know. I closed the machine door and went to watch television. | :23:31. | :23:35. | |
hour later, her husband opened the washing machine, and there was a | :23:35. | :23:43. | |
very bedraggled Princess. Poor poorer thing. She is very shaken up. | :23:43. | :23:52. | |
I held her close to me. I was totally shaken. She was shocked. | :23:52. | :23:56. | |
Susan rushed Princess to the vet and feared the worst. I did not | :23:56. | :24:03. | |
think she would have a chance. We do not have time to think of | :24:03. | :24:10. | |
anything. We just tried to get her here. Her main injuries were | :24:10. | :24:15. | |
bruising and inhalation of fluid. The soap had damaged her eyes. The | :24:15. | :24:20. | |
main treatment was getting her on fluids and getting her warm and | :24:20. | :24:25. | |
dried up again. We treated any pain and kept her comfortable. Is there | :24:25. | :24:35. | |
:24:35. | :24:36. | ||
a lasting fear of washing machines? Well, I always double-check! | :24:36. | :24:39. | |
Princess is now off her painkillers and she has been given the all- | :24:39. | :24:46. | |
clear by the vet. She is certainly very clean after her spin cycle. | :24:46. | :24:49. | |
Otherwise she is most definitely back to her playful and how the | :24:49. | :24:59. | |

Let's take a look at the weather. It has been a blustery day. | :25:01. | :25:05. | |
It was not the warmest we have seen but it was pretty close. A lovely | :25:05. | :25:09. | |
day across many parts of the country. Lots of warm sunshine | :25:09. | :25:18. | |
around. We signed a high of 21 in Edinburgh. 24 in Glasgow. The | :25:18. | :25:25. | |
warmest place in the UK but there is always a but. Into this evening | :25:25. | :25:28. | |
there will be some late sunshine for many of us but the exception | :25:28. | :25:32. | |
will be the West Coast with this week were the front are already | :25:32. | :25:37. | |
having arrived. Overnight it will push its way across Scotland and | :25:37. | :25:43. | |
will deliver some rain. It will be moderate too heavy. With all of the | :25:43. | :25:45. | |
rain and fog two around temperatures will be no lower than | :25:45. | :25:55. | |

10 or 11 and griefs. Macro cloud around. In the morning there will | :25:56. | :26:02. | |
be the remnants of a cloudy day compared to today. Around 4 o'clock | :26:02. | :26:06. | |
the rain will have cleared through and temperatures will be around 17 | :26:06. | :26:11. | |
or 18. The further west you are you will start to see some sunshine. | :26:11. | :26:20. | |
Teva otherwise it will be just 15 or 16 and there will be some good | :26:20. | :26:25. | |
sunshine as well. There will be a dry night every night going into | :26:25. | :26:30. | |
Thursday Macro Friday. Looking at the special charge, you can see | :26:30. | :26:37. | |
that the high pressure is back. Looking at the special charter. | :26:37. | :26:43. | |
South here is the map for Friday. You can see plenty of sunshine. | :26:43. | :26:49. | |
Temperatures up to 21 degrees. Generally a pretty good and to the | :26:49. | :26:55. | |
