:00:13. > :00:16.Welcome to Reporting Scotland. Tonight on your national news:

:00:16. > :00:19.More than 30 years after the disappearance of his daughter, this

:00:19. > :00:29.man has written to serial killer Robert Black to find out if he

:00:29. > :00:32.

:00:32. > :00:37.knows what happened to her. I asked him, it did you do it? Did you kill

:00:37. > :00:39.Genette? And if so, please can you put us out of our misery?

:00:39. > :00:42.Also in tonight's programme: The death of the Ayrshire barman

:00:42. > :00:44.Stuart Walker - an 18-year-old man appears in court charged with his

:00:44. > :00:54.murder. And later, the miss who's a hit

:00:54. > :00:56.with her pupils. Thank you, you are the best teacher in the world ever.

:00:56. > :00:59.Now it's official, as this Lanarkshire primary school teacher

:00:59. > :01:02.is voted the UK's best at the education Oscars.

:01:02. > :01:12.And could James Forrest be heading to the English premiership?

:01:12. > :01:17.Tottenham Hotspur show interest in The dying father of a 13-year-old

:01:17. > :01:20.girl who went missing in Devon more than 30 years ago has asked to meet

:01:20. > :01:25.the Scottish serial child killer Robert Black, who is a suspect in

:01:25. > :01:30.the case. Genette Tate disappeared in 1978 while doing a paper round.

:01:30. > :01:34.Last week, 64-year-old Black, originally from Grange mouth, was

:01:34. > :01:39.convicted of the murder of nine- year-old Jennifer Cardy in Northern

:01:39. > :01:43.Ireland 30 years ago. There are four we know about, but

:01:43. > :01:48.how many more children died at the hands of Robert Black it? His

:01:48. > :01:52.latest murder conviction was just last week. He was found guilty of

:01:52. > :01:56.killing nine-year-old Jennifer Cardy in Northern Ireland.

:01:56. > :01:59.story of Robert Black does not end with this verdict today. There are

:01:59. > :02:07.lines of inquiry which we still have at which we are still looking

:02:07. > :02:12.at. Is there more to do? Probably. That latest conviction has given

:02:12. > :02:18.one father hoped. John Tate is dying of cancer. His one last wish

:02:18. > :02:24.is to find out if Black murdered his 13-year-old daughter, Janet,

:02:24. > :02:32.back in 1978. Please can you put us out of our misery and tell us what

:02:32. > :02:38.happened and where? Jet was last seen near her home in rural Devon,

:02:38. > :02:42.going out on a newspaper round. Her bike and newspapers were found. The

:02:42. > :02:48.little girl never was. Police released an interview with Black in

:02:48. > :02:55.which he discusses his fantasies. It was just a narrow road. Going

:02:55. > :03:02.downhill. Driving along and I would see a young girl. I would get out

:03:02. > :03:07.and talk to her and try to persuade her to get in the van.

:03:07. > :03:10.similarities with Ginette's case mean Black is a prime suspect.

:03:10. > :03:14.Detectives say they will see what they can learn from the latest

:03:14. > :03:18.court case. As a result of the conviction in Northern Ireland, we

:03:18. > :03:24.will look at the evidence put before the court and see if it has

:03:24. > :03:28.any influence on the investigation. Genette Tate's father is making his

:03:28. > :03:33.own inquiries. He has written to Black to ask for a meeting face-to-

:03:33. > :03:39.face. Dear Robert Black, would you make the necessary arrangements for

:03:39. > :03:45.me to be able to visit you? I would like to talk to you. Just because I

:03:45. > :03:50.think I haven't got long to go. I would like to get this out of the

:03:50. > :03:55.way before I die. In a Devon churchyard lies a memorial to

:03:55. > :04:00.Genette Tate. There is nobody and so no grave. For her father, this

:04:00. > :04:05.is a place of questions. What happened to his little girl and

:04:05. > :04:09.will Robert Black give him any answers?

:04:09. > :04:13.An 18 year-old has appeared in court charged with the murder of

:04:13. > :04:19.Cumnock man Stuart Walker. B28 to Roald's body was banned last

:04:19. > :04:22.weekend in an industrial estate in the Ayrshire town. -- was found.

:04:22. > :04:29.Around 3:30pm today 18-year-old Ryan has squared up from Cumnock

:04:29. > :04:34.appeared here. He has been charged with the murder of Stuart Walker

:04:34. > :04:39.income MAC nine days ago and he has also been charged with theft.

:04:39. > :04:43.Stuart Walker was found beaten and burned by the roadside in Cumnock

:04:43. > :04:49.just before 5am a week passed Saturday. He died a short time

:04:49. > :04:53.later. Police said the openly gay man was a victim of an extremely

:04:53. > :04:57.violent and sustained attack. Officers confirmed last week he had

:04:57. > :05:01.been investigated over an allegation of indecency with a 12-

:05:01. > :05:05.year-old boy and a report was sent to the Procurator Fiscal. Police

:05:05. > :05:10.said there was nothing to suggest the murder was connected. On the

:05:10. > :05:15.morning he died, Stuart Walker was seen at 2:30am by the come up fire

:05:15. > :05:20.station, not far from where he was found just over two hours later.

:05:20. > :05:25.This small Ayrshire town has been deeply shocked by Stuart's brutal

:05:25. > :05:30.death. He is remembered as popular, fun and outgoing, and in the days

:05:30. > :05:37.since his death, many tributes have been made and flowers have been

:05:37. > :05:43.laid by friends and family near to where he died. Brian St Edo made no

:05:43. > :05:49.decoration or plea today but has been remanded in custody. -- Brian

:05:49. > :05:54.S D Edo. Still to come, the campaign to make

:05:54. > :05:59.sure teenage mothers get the recommended level of daily exercise.

:05:59. > :06:02.How a Scots ex-serviceman's campaign will close Tower Bridge on

:06:02. > :06:11.Armistice Day. In sport, a Celtic youngster

:06:11. > :06:16.catches the eye of Spurs' manager. And Steven Naismith must wait a few

:06:16. > :06:21.more of us for news on his knee. The Rangers midfielder has had a

:06:21. > :06:24.scan. -- he must wait a few more hours.

:06:24. > :06:28.Police investigating the disappearance of a glaster woman

:06:28. > :06:32.are searching a house in West Kilbride this evening. Linda Spence

:06:32. > :06:36.has not been seen since the middle of April. Her car was spotted in

:06:36. > :06:41.Ayrshire a week after she went missing and her mobile phone was

:06:41. > :06:48.found in a wheelie bin in June. Our reporter is in West Kilbride. What

:06:48. > :06:51.exactly is happening? What we have learnt is that a police

:06:51. > :06:56.investigation has been carried out in this street since Friday. As you

:06:56. > :07:03.can probably see, an incident unit has been set up. Across there There

:07:03. > :07:06.is a generator. Police officers are here in numbers. A fairly detailed

:07:06. > :07:10.forensic operation is being carried out on this property here, with

:07:10. > :07:17.lights out. There were uniformed police officers in the doorway a

:07:17. > :07:23.few moments ago and they have been coming and going over the course of

:07:23. > :07:28.the last hour also. We understand that Linda Spence did business in

:07:28. > :07:32.this part of Scotland. She lived in Glasgow but worked in part down

:07:32. > :07:37.here and she was a financial adviser, a mortgage provider, but

:07:37. > :07:42.when she disappear back in April, she owed money to several people.

:07:42. > :07:46.She told friends that. She told her family that she was going to London,

:07:46. > :07:51.but she never got there, and that is why police believe she has come

:07:51. > :07:54.to some harm. It did not stop her mother at that point in time

:07:54. > :07:59.issuing an emotional appeal for information about her daughter's

:07:59. > :08:05.disappearance. You have nothing to worry about whatever has happened.

:08:05. > :08:08.It can be sorted. We just need to know you are OK. Linda, it is

:08:08. > :08:12.Father's Day this Sunday, please let us know you are safe and well.

:08:12. > :08:18.If anyone has information that could help, please contact the

:08:18. > :08:22.police. So as you say, David, as Linda Spence did do business there,

:08:23. > :08:28.presumably that is why it is the focus of what has happened tonight?

:08:29. > :08:34.It is certainly the starting Kai Game. In addition, it is understood

:08:34. > :08:40.that she drove a silver Vauxhall car and in the weeks following her

:08:40. > :08:44.disappearance on or around April 13th, that car was seen in several

:08:44. > :08:49.locations in the North Ayrshire area. In addition to that, since

:08:49. > :08:53.then, a phone was handed in to the police. It was found in a wheelie

:08:53. > :08:57.bin outside a cafe in Kilbirnie, just a few miles from here. It

:08:58. > :09:03.turned out that was her phone. That would explain why this part of

:09:03. > :09:07.Scotland is the focus of this police investigation. Thank you.

:09:07. > :09:13.The children often have a love-hate relationship with their teachers.

:09:13. > :09:16.One little boy loved his so much he nominated her for the UK teacher of

:09:16. > :09:21.the Year award. Last night, at an awards ceremony in London,

:09:21. > :09:27.Christine Emerton beat thousands of other contenders to pick up the

:09:27. > :09:33.accolade. Christine and it is the teacher of

:09:33. > :09:40.the year, from Hamilton. Recognition for 25 years of

:09:40. > :09:48.committing her heart and soul to the job. At the minute, the class

:09:48. > :09:52.is studying American Indians. The children have built their own

:09:52. > :09:56.teepees and come across the problems that the Indians came

:09:56. > :10:00.across, like teams are not working together. They have learned all

:10:00. > :10:08.about the river and the Bison so they have lived as Indians and

:10:08. > :10:12.found it great fun. Sometimes in Spanish, sometimes in Scots,

:10:12. > :10:21.lessons so good someone has nominated Mrs Emmett for the

:10:21. > :10:27.teacher of the Year award. thought she was a good teacher.

:10:27. > :10:32.quibbles with that among pupils, staff and parents. She helps me.

:10:32. > :10:39.She makes learning really firm. does all the Fair Trading and helps

:10:39. > :10:46.out with the score a lot. It is, Mrs em up said this, Mrs Emmett

:10:46. > :10:55.said that. The children actually dance behind her at the disco. She

:10:55. > :10:59.is fantastic. They all love her. She has been phenomenal. It is not

:10:59. > :11:03.what the do, it is the way that you do it, and that is what gets

:11:03. > :11:13.results... Now officially Christine Emmett is the best teacher in the

:11:13. > :11:15.

:11:15. > :11:23.UK. This is for all the boys and girls at the primary school, past

:11:23. > :11:30.and present. For a fantastic head teacher and deputy teacher. For my

:11:30. > :11:34.hard-working colleagues. Congratulations.

:11:34. > :11:39.A man is being held by police after an elderly woman died at a

:11:39. > :11:42.sheltered housing complex in Edinburgh. It is thought the 74-

:11:42. > :11:47.year-old's body was discovered by a relative at her home in Longstone

:11:47. > :11:49.Park yesterday. She has been named locally as Rosie Sutherland. Police

:11:49. > :11:53.are questioning a man they detained on Sunday.

:11:53. > :11:56.Charities and voluntary organisations in Scotland saw their

:11:56. > :12:00.income fall by nearly �100 million last year, according to new

:12:00. > :12:04.research. The Scottish Council for Voluntary Organisations says some

:12:04. > :12:11.groups are having to dip into their reserves to keep grips open. One

:12:11. > :12:15.reason is that councils are giving less to local groups.

:12:15. > :12:22.On Reporting Scotland we have told you how charities have faced the

:12:22. > :12:28.squeeze. Care partners in Ayrshire help look after children who need

:12:28. > :12:33.special attention. It lost most of its council funding and now it has

:12:33. > :12:37.closed down. And we told you how this group that provides transport

:12:37. > :12:43.for the elderly have worries, too. It now knows it will be getting

:12:43. > :12:47.less from the council next year. Research suggests these stories are

:12:47. > :12:51.widespread. We do not see a light at the end of the tunnel, or if we

:12:51. > :12:57.do, it is a train coming. I think many charities are facing real

:12:57. > :13:04.difficulties now. It is a tough world for them. They are expected

:13:04. > :13:11.to work harder with fewer resources. The company's research suggests

:13:11. > :13:16.four out of ten organisations had to kick the into their reserves.

:13:16. > :13:21.These are two sides of the same coin. Squeeze on public spending

:13:21. > :13:25.means less money for some groups. Economic problems mean more people

:13:25. > :13:31.asking for help. 1 B group that is emerging of people who are really

:13:31. > :13:37.having problems paying their mortgages. -- 1 new group. We are

:13:37. > :13:41.seeing a new group of people coming to us worried they are going to

:13:41. > :13:45.lose their house. Many of the hard choices that have affected

:13:45. > :13:48.charities have been made locally by councils. Charities no money is

:13:48. > :13:55.tight but they argue they could still be given more certainty about

:13:55. > :13:57.how much cash they will get in the $$$NEWLINE Some of the other

:13:57. > :14:00.stories across Scotland this Monday. A murder investigation's underway

:14:00. > :14:04.in Glasgow following the death of a 41-year-old man. Kenneth Andrews

:14:04. > :14:07.was found by police in Dalmarnock Road in the east end of the city,

:14:07. > :14:10.yesterday. He died later in hospital.

:14:11. > :14:14.The funeral of Thomas Sharkey, who was murdered in a house fire in

:14:14. > :14:16.Helensburgh, has taken place. He was killed with his two children,

:14:16. > :14:19.eight-year-old Bridget and 21-year- old Thomas Junior, when their house

:14:19. > :14:28.was deliberately set on fire in July. The only survivor of the fire

:14:28. > :14:30.was his wife and mother of the victims, 46-year-old Angela Sharkey.

:14:30. > :14:33.The search is launched today for thousands of Scottish runners

:14:33. > :14:36.who'll help light up Arthur's Seat next year. Hundreds of runners in

:14:36. > :14:45.special suits will take part in Speed of Light, one of four

:14:45. > :14:49.projects commissioned in Scotland to celebrate the 2012 Olympic games.

:14:49. > :14:51.-- 2012 Commonwealth Games. Almost 70 per cent of girls aged

:14:51. > :14:56.between 11 and 12 get the recommended level of an hour's

:14:56. > :15:01.exercise every day. But by the time they reach 15, that's fallen to

:15:01. > :15:03.just over a third. For teen mums it's thought to be even lower. Our

:15:04. > :15:11.reporter Suzanne Allan went to visit a project in Paisley

:15:11. > :15:17.encouraging teenage mothers to get their running shoes on.

:15:17. > :15:23.Heart pounding, rapid breathing. This young mother is bucking the

:15:23. > :15:28.trend. She is 27 and started with this group when she had her first

:15:28. > :15:34.child. Like many girls, she hated to be at school so what put her

:15:34. > :15:38.off? Having to move my legs and sweat! With a face full of make-up,

:15:38. > :15:45.you don't want to do that. I did not want to run outside because I

:15:45. > :15:51.was embarrassed. Then the exercise bug bit before stop at first, it

:15:51. > :15:56.was quite scary. I wondered what I was getting myself into. You don't

:15:56. > :16:04.realise how much you are running, how long, so we realised we were

:16:04. > :16:11.doing well. 66 % of girls aged between 10 and 11 take the

:16:11. > :16:14.recommended amount of exercise. That falls to 35 % after at 14. If

:16:14. > :16:18.you are at a teenage mother, it is even lower.

:16:18. > :16:23.And that is what prompted this project. A lot of young women seem

:16:24. > :16:28.to lack confidence when it comes to activities. They might feel they

:16:28. > :16:33.don't enjoy it all it is not for them. Often they are not encouraged

:16:33. > :16:41.by their family to take part, or not found an activity that suits

:16:41. > :16:46.them. This is essentially a burning group,

:16:46. > :16:51.but it has become more than that: It is exercise, socialise and

:16:51. > :16:55.toddler group all in one. -- a running group. It is very much

:16:55. > :17:01.about personal development as well and working to issues that they

:17:01. > :17:06.have had to deal with in their lives. They are young and it is --

:17:06. > :17:11.they feel vulnerable. They need encouragement and that is something

:17:11. > :17:15.they have never had before. Since this group started, many others

:17:15. > :17:19.have sprung up. It is not just teenagers that can find it hard to

:17:19. > :17:22.get back to fitness. One of London's most famous bridges

:17:22. > :17:26.is to be shut to traffic for the first time on Armistice Day; and

:17:26. > :17:29.it's all due to a campaign by an ex-serviceman from Aberdeenshire.

:17:29. > :17:39.Ernest Sangster will be on Tower Bridge on November the 11th and

:17:39. > :17:44.will help operate the controls. Colin Wight has the story.

:17:44. > :17:49.Armistice Day in London. The 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th

:17:49. > :17:55.month. It is a time to honour the dead of two world wars and recent

:17:55. > :18:01.conflicts. This man is a regular at ceremonies. He served in the RAF

:18:01. > :18:06.between 1947 and 1950. Now 82, he felt something was missing when

:18:06. > :18:15.traffic continued to flow over Tower Bridge. I thought it would be

:18:15. > :18:25.a good idea if they opened the bastions. Looking up the river, I

:18:25. > :18:35.

:18:35. > :18:40.Ernest took up his concerns with his local MP. He raised the case

:18:40. > :18:45.with the authorities in London and they agreed to live the drawbridge.

:18:45. > :18:49.I suppose it took his observation to bring it about. Now it is

:18:50. > :18:55.happening and I think it is a great gesture to remind us on Armistice

:18:55. > :18:58.Day of the sacrifice is that were made. Now Ernest and Sir Robert

:18:59. > :19:03.would have to London in two weeks time for the big day, both will be

:19:03. > :19:07.on Tower Bridge. Ernest says it will be the highlight of his life.

:19:07. > :19:16.I am very pleased and greatly honoured to beat on the bridge, to

:19:16. > :19:26.open it, along with Sir Robert. being well, it is hoped earnest and

:19:26. > :19:41.

:19:41. > :19:44.is determined campaign will become The Spurs boss Harry Redknapp has

:19:44. > :19:47.told BBC Scotland that he will continue to monitor Celtic's James

:19:47. > :19:49.Forrest with a view to taking him south. Redknapp's top scout watched

:19:49. > :19:52.south. Redknapp's top scout watched the Parkhead winger at the weekend

:19:52. > :19:55.and was impressed by what he saw. Perhaps one of the few people to

:19:55. > :19:57.leave Parkhead happy at the weekend, as Chris McLaughlin reports.

:19:57. > :20:02.More points dropped for Celtic at the weekend and the fans made their

:20:02. > :20:05.feelings clear at the end. A one- man impressed again as fans...

:20:05. > :20:10.had good reports of him as a good player. But he belongs to Celtic

:20:10. > :20:15.and that has -- is as far as it is gone. We have not on any further.

:20:15. > :20:23.If we were looking to go further, I would think Neil and talk to him

:20:24. > :20:27.about it. I remember Jimmy Johnson and people like him, they were the

:20:27. > :20:31.great winners that were produced up there over the years. Hopefully

:20:31. > :20:36.this kid will be another top winner coming through. It doesn't surprise

:20:36. > :20:42.me. When you look at Celtic this season, their one player is a

:20:43. > :20:48.sparkle. He is quick, scoring goals, two-footed. I'm sure there are a

:20:48. > :20:52.lot of clubs in England looking at him. He continues to impress, even

:20:52. > :20:58.if his side are struggling, so much so that his team-mate think they

:20:58. > :21:05.must win all of their last 26 games to stand any chance of overturning

:21:05. > :21:11.Rangers 12 point lead. What chance of that? Today one bookie made odds

:21:11. > :21:21.of 10,000 to one. Hold off for now on the beds, because the arts could

:21:21. > :21:24.

:21:24. > :21:27.The Rangers midfielder Steven Naismith has had a scan, but no

:21:27. > :21:29.result will be available until tomorrow. It's feared he suffered

:21:29. > :21:32.cruciate ligament damage in Rangers win against Aberdeen on Saturday.

:21:32. > :21:41.The Scotland boss Craig Levein will also miss his services saying it's

:21:41. > :21:50.a real blow. Cruciate damage could put an end to Naismith's season.

:21:50. > :21:55.He goes down in some distress. This is the moment of realisation will

:21:55. > :21:57.this player. The real damage occurred moments to earlier. A rash

:21:57. > :22:01.occurred moments to earlier. A rash challenge brought both players to
