Welcome to Reporting Scotland. Tonight... The government's plans | :00:21. | :00:28. | |
for minimum pricing for alcohol to tackle Scotland's booze culture. | :00:28. | :00:32. | |
Even though I was unemployable, alcohol was so cheap and available, | :00:32. | :00:37. | |
I could still drink every day. an overall majority in parliament, | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
this time the bill looks certain to pass. Also tonight... | :00:40. | :00:45. | |
Selling up? Then it might be time to drop your asking price. We have | :00:45. | :00:48. | |
the latest assesment of the state of Scotland's housing market. | :00:48. | :00:52. | |
The missing financial adviser Lynda Spence. Four men appear in court | :00:52. | :00:56. | |
charged with abduction and murder. And Dr Livingstone, I presume. | :00:56. | :00:59. | |
Presume no more. The Scottish explorer's previously illegible | :00:59. | :01:06. | |
diary is decoded. Scotland will almost certainly | :01:06. | :01:09. | |
become the first country in Europe to introduce a minimum price for | :01:09. | :01:16. | |
alcohol. The SNP government thinks it is the best way to tackle the | :01:16. | :01:19. | |
serious criminal, social and health problems associated with alcohol | :01:19. | :01:23. | |
abuse. It means that cheap, strong drink will become more expensive. | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
It is the same policy which was rejected by the Scottish Parliament | :01:26. | :01:32. | |
last year. The bigger argument for minimum | :01:32. | :01:37. | |
pricing is that it is too cheap to get too drunk here in Scotland. | :01:37. | :01:42. | |
Ministers claim, with they just �5, a teenager can buy enough to kill | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
themselves. So why went to see just how much alcohol you can buy for | :01:47. | :01:53. | |
that kind of money. That is me just emerged from the shop, spending | :01:53. | :02:01. | |
�4.94. This is what I have. A large a two-litre bottle of cider, 5% | :02:01. | :02:11. | |
volume. Another two-litre bottle of cider, this time 7.5%. Here is | :02:11. | :02:17. | |
another shop, another big bottle of cider, two litres, 7.5% volume. 15 | :02:17. | :02:27. | |
:02:27. | :02:28. | ||
units of alcohol. And a bottle of fortified wine, 15%. The grand | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
total was �5.80. I have blown my Budget a little, but also blown my | :02:32. | :02:40. | |
recommended drinks limit for the week. I am an alcoholic. I am | :02:40. | :02:46. | |
feeling quite content. Getting drunk is not expensive, but the | :02:46. | :02:52. | |
cost to lives is. Addicts are treated here. Many sustained their | :02:52. | :02:57. | |
habits by frequent visits to the supermarket. Even when I was | :02:57. | :03:03. | |
unemployable, what alcohol been so cheap and easily available, I could | :03:03. | :03:08. | |
drink every day. The Scottish Government want the days of cheap | :03:08. | :03:14. | |
booze to end, introducing plans for a minimum price for alcohol. | :03:14. | :03:19. | |
have never said it is a magical solution, but it is the missing | :03:19. | :03:29. | |
:03:29. | :03:31. | ||
What difference will it make? It was said that a bottle of own brand | :03:31. | :03:41. | |
:03:41. | :03:46. | ||
Minimum pricing will simply penalise the majority of Scots who | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
already drink sensibly. Minimum pricing is likely to pass and | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
Parliament, but may end up in court. Critics have questioned its | :03:54. | :04:00. | |
legality. Ministers insist it is. If you are struggling to sell your | :04:00. | :04:05. | |
home, it might be time to drop your asking price. New figures show that | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
some parts of the country have seen an almost 10% fall in property | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
prices. Overall, there has been a slight fall in house prices in the | :04:12. | :04:18. | |
David Henderson is here with full details. | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
The credit crunch and the recession have left their mark. For now at | :04:22. | :04:26. | |
least, soaring property prices are a thing of the past. The average | :04:26. | :04:32. | |
home actually fell in value over the last year by 0.2%. In | :04:32. | :04:38. | |
Inverclyde, the typical home lost nearly 10% of its value. But the | :04:38. | :04:43. | |
property market still has the occasional hot spot. Like | :04:43. | :04:48. | |
Stirlingshire, were prices were up almost 8%. For most of us, the | :04:48. | :04:58. | |
:04:58. | :04:59. | ||
This houses for sale. A place like this should sell easily, but the | :04:59. | :05:04. | |
homeowner is finding it challenging. Because of the area, we did not | :05:04. | :05:09. | |
think we would have a problem, even in the downturn. It is a reasonable | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
house in our reasonable region, good neighbours. We did not see a | :05:13. | :05:20. | |
problem. Has there been much interest? One viewing. That was an | :05:20. | :05:25. | |
four months. A few years ago, it would have been easy to sell this | :05:25. | :05:31. | |
house. But things have changed. No more so than here in Inverclyde, | :05:31. | :05:37. | |
property plight -- property prices dropping almost 10% in one year. | :05:37. | :05:42. | |
Thomas selling his house at less than valuation. Others are holding | :05:42. | :05:47. | |
out for a higher price. Some think that its over-optimistic. We have | :05:47. | :05:52. | |
been measuring the reality gap for the best part of the year. That has | :05:52. | :05:58. | |
only been increasing. Up until now at least. On average, the gap | :05:58. | :06:02. | |
between what people hoped to get and what they are getting is about | :06:02. | :06:07. | |
�20,000. If your house was on the market for a year and you have not | :06:07. | :06:13. | |
altered your price, think about it. Listen and talk to your agent. If | :06:13. | :06:18. | |
it is priced correctly, it will sell. I had one on the market for | :06:18. | :06:23. | |
two years. We sold it in two days after dropping the price. So no | :06:23. | :06:33. | |
:06:33. | :06:36. | ||
So, if it is not a seller's market, is it a buyer's market? The answer | :06:36. | :06:39. | |
is only if you have lots of your own money to spend. Banks want | :06:39. | :06:44. | |
buyers to have bigger deposits than used to be case. That is one reason | :06:44. | :06:49. | |
why sales of flats fell by almost 6% in the last year. First time | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
buyers are finding it difficult to get their foot on the property | :06:52. | :06:55. | |
ladder. That could spell trouble for the housing market in the years | :06:55. | :07:04. | |
You are watching Reporting Scotland from the BBC. Still to come before | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
seven... A delay in legal moves to evict | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
anti-capitalist protesters from George Square. | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
And a young surgeon helps the NHS to save cash by developing plastic | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
bones. In sport, Rangers striker, Steven | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
Naismith, is out for up to nine months with a knee injury. The | :07:18. | :07:22. | |
Scotland squad is named for the friendly against Cyprus. And the | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
draw is made for the League Cup semi-finals. These two managers | :07:25. | :07:33. | |
will go head-to-head in an Ayrshire Derby. | :07:33. | :07:36. | |
Four men are expected to appear at Kilmarnock Sheriff Court tonight | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
charged with the abduction and murder of Lynda Spence. The 28- | :07:39. | :07:45. | |
year-old financial adviser went missing in April. The arrests | :07:45. | :07:49. | |
followed a search of a flat in West Kilbride over the weekend. | :07:49. | :07:54. | |
Lynda Spence texted her mother at the day after she waltzed last seen | :07:54. | :08:00. | |
in April, saying she was going to London. But she has not been seen | :08:00. | :08:06. | |
since. Appeals brought no new leads. If you are listening, please come | :08:06. | :08:11. | |
forward to let us know you are safe and well. Go to any police station | :08:11. | :08:15. | |
to let us know you are all right. You have nothing to worry about. | :08:15. | :08:21. | |
Whatever has happened can be sorted. As the weeks turned two months, | :08:21. | :08:26. | |
this missing person inquiry turned to one of murder. Lynda Spence told | :08:26. | :08:32. | |
friends she ought people money. It ran into six figures. Her mortgage | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
business was in trouble. Police spent the last few months trying to | :08:36. | :08:41. | |
piece together what happened. She was last seen in Partick on April | :08:41. | :08:51. | |
:08:51. | :08:57. | ||
On Friday, police searched the flat in West Kilbride. The arrests of | :08:57. | :09:02. | |
four men followed. Tonight, this road remains closed. Police have | :09:02. | :09:07. | |
been here for around four days and we expect them to stay longer | :09:07. | :09:12. | |
carrying out a forensic searches of this house. The four men have been | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
charged with the abduction and murder of Lynda Spence. They are | :09:16. | :09:23. | |
expected to appear tonight at Kilmarnock Sheriff Court. | :09:23. | :09:25. | |
Scottish Lib Dems leader, Willie Rennie, has apologised for a | :09:25. | :09:28. | |
cartoon published online by the party, which depicts the first | :09:28. | :09:37. | |
minister in Arab dress. The cartoon, mentioning the death penalty and | :09:37. | :09:40. | |
gay rights, was produced after Mr Salmond hailed similarities between | :09:40. | :09:45. | |
Scotland and Qatar during his five- day Middle East trip. | :09:45. | :09:47. | |
A last-ditch appeal is being made to anti-capitalism protesters to | :09:47. | :09:50. | |
leave Glasgow's George Square before the city council resorts to | :09:50. | :09:58. | |
court action. Councillors are worried about the presence of the | :09:58. | :10:01. | |
tented camp as the square prepares to be the site of the Garden of | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
Remembrance and the location for official Armistice Day | :10:04. | :10:07. | |
commemorations next week. Jamie McIvor joins us now. | :10:07. | :10:11. | |
The camp here may be small in scale compared to the protest at St | :10:11. | :10:15. | |
Paul's Cathedral. But Glasgow City Council is still worried. A court | :10:15. | :10:20. | |
action to clear the camp has been held over until Thursday, but the | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
council is appealing to protesters to move on. | :10:24. | :10:30. | |
For more than a fortnight, this camp has occupied a corner of | :10:30. | :10:35. | |
Glasgow's best-known public space. A small group of people united by | :10:35. | :10:42. | |
what they are opposed to. The banks a wronged. They are bringing down | :10:42. | :10:47. | |
the structure of the whole system. -- the banks are wrong. Whether it | :10:47. | :10:52. | |
is the National Health, Social Security, even the police. There | :10:52. | :10:56. | |
are a lot of homeless in Glasgow. I do not know where the money is | :10:56. | :11:04. | |
going. I am homeless myself. That is why I am doing this. The city | :11:04. | :11:07. | |
council says it respects the right to protest, but wants them to move | :11:07. | :11:14. | |
on. The camp is yards from the Cenotaph, in the run-up to | :11:14. | :11:17. | |
Remembrance Sunday. Thousands will come here when the Christmas lights | :11:17. | :11:21. | |
are switched on. We have been clear with protesters right from the | :11:22. | :11:27. | |
start, that they were not entitled to do what there doing here in this | :11:27. | :11:31. | |
player and that they will run a real risk of disrupting Remembrance | :11:31. | :11:34. | |
Sunday and remembering those who died in the way people of Glasgow | :11:34. | :11:38. | |
would like to. It would also hinder switching on the Christmas lights | :11:38. | :11:43. | |
and the Glasgow celebrations, where thousands of people enjoy the | :11:43. | :11:47. | |
square. The council say the protesters can camp in other | :11:47. | :11:52. | |
locations. But many of them believe George Square is where they should | :11:52. | :11:57. | |
There are a number of reasons why the authorities are concerned. Last | :11:57. | :12:03. | |
Wednesday, a woman was raid in one of the tents. Police inquiries are | :12:03. | :12:07. | |
continued. -- rate. There are worries about the potential | :12:07. | :12:14. | |
disruption about to -- disruption to big events. The meeting is a | :12:14. | :12:19. | |
roundabout now deciding on a course of action. The Last fling they want | :12:19. | :12:25. | |
to do is disrupt Remembrance Sunday. But be a reluctant to move decamp | :12:25. | :12:32. | |
to a location where the fuel it will be less visible. Thank you. | :12:32. | :12:36. | |

Fire fighters have contained a blaze on board the aircraft carrier, | :12:38. | :12:42. | |
Queen Elizabeth, which is under construction at Rosyth. The blaze | :12:42. | :12:46. | |

Lecturers at the older universities are already working to rule over a | :13:14. | :13:24. | |
:13:24. | :13:30. | ||
A railway manager wept as he found out that he failed to save the | :13:30. | :13:37. | |
death of 84 year-old Margaret Mason. She died in 2007 when the train | :13:37. | :13:42. | |
derailed at Grayrigg in Cumbria. Fiona Trott is at the inquest. | :13:42. | :13:47. | |
Before we came on air, I asked to what excuse David Lewis gave for | :13:48. | :13:51. | |
his actions. He told the jury today it was like | :13:51. | :13:56. | |
spinning plates. He had a backlog of maintenance work and could only | :13:56. | :14:00. | |
carry out that work on Sunday mornings because his staff couldn't | :14:00. | :14:04. | |
be on the track when high-speed trains were going through. There | :14:04. | :14:08. | |
wasn't enough staff to carry out those duties and a lot of his work | :14:08. | :14:15. | |
it had to try and do training. On Sunday, five days before the crash, | :14:15. | :14:20. | |
he carried out a patrol himself because he said his team was under | :14:20. | :14:25. | |
staff. He didn't patrolled the last quarter of a mile. That is | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
important because the train derailed at 92 miles per hour when | :14:29. | :14:35. | |
it went over a set of unsafe points. He told the inquest about a | :14:35. | :14:39. | |
conversation he had with his boss the day after the crash. He said | :14:39. | :14:44. | |
that the failure to patrol that part of the line was down to me. It | :14:44. | :14:49. | |
is my responsibility. At that point during the hearing, his voice | :14:49. | :14:53. | |
trembled and he put his hand over his mouth and looked away. | :14:53. | :14:57. | |
understand he said he was under work pressures. What did he do | :14:57. | :15:04. | |
about them? He told the inquest that he asked his bosses for agency | :15:04. | :15:09. | |
staff. That request was declined. He sent an e-mail to Network Rail | :15:09. | :15:15. | |
Buses a year before the crash and a statement was read out. He said, | :15:15. | :15:19. | |
while I understand the need to remain within budget, I am at a | :15:19. | :15:25. | |
loss to understand how I am expected to maintain a safe and | :15:25. | :15:30. | |
complained railway. What we heard today, is that he admitted the work | :15:30. | :15:36. | |
was not quite complaint and he warned bosses that it was about to | :15:36. | :15:43. | |
get worse. The inquest continues. A young surgeon and self-confessed | :15:43. | :15:47. | |
technology geek believes he has found a way to save the NHS | :15:47. | :15:52. | |
thousands of pounds. Mark Frame has developed a way to make cheap and | :15:52. | :15:58. | |
it Tommy core models. He helps surgeons plan out operations for a | :15:58. | :16:08. | |
10th of the price. It -- anatomical models. | :16:08. | :16:17. | |
Mark Frame shows 79 year-old at my Iraq a model of her damaged hip. | :16:17. | :16:22. | |
Models like this one are helped to plan out complex surgery. Once you | :16:22. | :16:26. | |
have used the physical model when you get into the operation, it is | :16:26. | :16:30. | |
like you have already been there before. Usually these cost | :16:30. | :16:37. | |
thousands of pounds. Mark new new technology could be made for less. | :16:37. | :16:42. | |
He takes measures -- he takes measurements from C D scans and | :16:42. | :16:52. | |
then uses a 3 D printing. You then get polystyrene peanuts which are a | :16:52. | :16:56. | |
full representation of the patient's forearm. That is the | :16:56. | :17:04. | |
model, not the real bone now we have taken out. It is quite amazing. | :17:04. | :17:09. | |
The cast is �77. I was very impressed with the model. The level | :17:09. | :17:17. | |
of detail is excellent. It looks so much like the defects that we have | :17:17. | :17:22. | |
seen and so similar to the model. It gives us a good idea of what we | :17:22. | :17:28. | |
were hoping to do in surgery. Surgeons here are accusing them | :17:28. | :17:33. | |
more often. It makes surgery safer and more successful. If you want to | :17:33. | :17:38. | |
make your own 3 D Burns, there is a quick guide on how to do it and is | :17:38. | :17:48. | |

inscription, fee of two. A picture of the monarch sold for �145,000. | :18:06. | :18:09. | |
That is more than five times the estimate. The connection attracted | :18:09. | :18:13. | |
a huge amount of interest from around the world. | :18:13. | :18:19. | |
Now for the sport. Ally McCoist says Steven Naismith | :18:19. | :18:23. | |

injury. He will be out of action for the rest of the season which | :18:26. | :18:30. | |

nine months. Knowing the type of boy he is and his attitude, he made | :18:57. | :19:00. | |
all the right noises and said the right things that will help him to | :19:00. | :19:09. | |
recover. I am certain he will be back for pre-season training. He | :19:09. | :19:15. | |

There will be an Ayrshire derby in the Scottish League Cup as Ayr face, | :20:11. | :20:16. | |

they will sit down with the Ayrshire club's to describe -- to | :20:20. | :20:26. | |
discuss where their semi-finals will be played. | :20:26. | :20:32. | |
It is the best role that they could have got. In terms of progress, we | :20:32. | :20:38. | |
wanted to avoid Celtic because they are the most superior team left. | :20:38. | :20:42. | |
Whether you want to come here and maybe half feel it, there is not | :20:42. | :20:50. | |
the same atmosphere. It is a bit out of the way. The need to look at | :20:51. | :20:57. | |
it. Paulo Sergio could be in more trouble with the SFA. He has been | :20:57. | :20:59. | |

to the stand for verbally abusing the match officials during | :21:03. | :21:12. | |
Saturday's match against Kilmarnock. He has been up for other matters. | :21:12. | :21:17. | |
He has accepted a two match ban. Some senior players are still | :21:17. | :21:22. | |
waiting on last month's wages. For the first ever time, the | :21:22. | :21:25. | |
British Super cross championships comes to Scotland with Braehead | :21:25. | :21:29. | |
Arena hosting the event. Among those competing is this man, Ross | :21:29. | :21:34. | |
Rutherford, the three-times Scottish motocross champion. Today | :21:34. | :21:39. | |
he was warming up for the Braehead date wishes round three of the five | :21:39. | :21:46. | |
making up the series. He finds it nerve-racking. | :21:46. | :21:50. | |
You get butterflies, you get nervous. Especially here today, it | :21:50. | :21:59. | |
is going to be even worse for the home crowd. Do you get worried that | :21:59. | :22:04. | |
you may have to pay insurance on someone's car? Definitely, with | :22:04. | :22:11. | |
this I do, for sure. There was a nervous laugh. | :22:11. | :22:15. | |
Fresh light has been shed on a Scottish explorer and anti-slavery | :22:15. | :22:19. | |
missionary, David Livingstone. A diary which had faded so much it | :22:19. | :22:23. | |
was illegible, has been decoded to reveal his first hand account of | :22:23. | :22:26. | |
the horrors of the state massacre in which Livingstone's own | :22:26. | :22:31. | |
foreigners -- own followers may have been involved. | :22:31. | :22:35. | |
Faded writing on top of newspaper. This diary had been locked away and | :22:35. | :22:39. | |
forgotten but now the signs used in satellites has been applied to | :22:39. | :22:45. | |
bring you back to life. It Merc -- it worked amazingly well. We used | :22:45. | :22:50. | |
infra-red portion to get the text. We revealed the handwriting. It | :22:50. | :22:54. | |
went from not being able to read it to look at the picture and read it | :22:54. | :23:00. | |
directly. The diary was written by Livingstone in Africa 140 years ago. | :23:00. | :23:05. | |
He was ill and second further by the massacre of 400 slaves. He | :23:05. | :23:10. | |
realised to some of his own followers may have taken part. | :23:10. | :23:18. | |
could have felt some capability that he may have been responsible. | :23:18. | :23:23. | |
He was trying to draw attention away from that. Later he described | :23:23. | :23:28. | |
the massacre to Stanley, his report forced them to close the South | :23:28. | :23:34. | |
African slave trade. This diary shows the confusion and conflicting | :23:34. | :23:39. | |
emotions he felt at the time. time the light came on, it would | :23:39. | :23:44. | |
glow. When you got to ultraviolet light and his words came out, we | :23:44. | :23:47. | |
were the first people since Livingstone wrote it to read these | :23:47. | :23:53. | |
words. It was a magical experience. The teams are already working on | :23:53. | :23:57. | |
other manuscripts, hoping to see other historic treasures in a new | :23:57. | :24:02. | |
light. Our many experts Fergus Muirhead | :24:02. | :24:05. | |
will be here tomorrow lunchtime looking at the confusion that | :24:05. | :24:09. | |
exists over the best energy tariffs and how you can get value for money | :24:09. | :24:15. | |
on your gas and electricity. Any questions to the usual address. | :24:15. | :24:25. | |

questions to the usual address. It is a beautiful start to November. | :24:27. | :24:33. | |
Into this evening, it will stay dry but it will be a windy night. Winds | :24:33. | :24:38. | |
gusting up to 50 mph by the end of the night. We have this rain trying | :24:38. | :24:42. | |
to work its way into the Outer Hebrides before it clears away | :24:42. | :24:49. | |
again. With their southerly winds, it keeps mild. Towns and cities no | :24:50. | :24:55. | |
lower than seven Celsius. The weather we have at the moment is | :24:55. | :25:00. | |
thanks to this low-pressure. It is the same weather system that | :25:00. | :25:08. | |
brought the snow to eastern America a few days ago. Tomorrow, it will | :25:08. | :25:18. | |
:25:18. | :25:23. | ||
be another dry day. Winners will So a cloudy day than today. | :25:23. | :25:30. | |
Temperatures up to 13 Celsius. The best of the sunshine is around the | :25:30. | :25:35. | |
Moray Firth. If you get this sunshine wake you are, not too bad | :25:35. | :25:40. | |
at all but will be a windier day ban today. Into the evening | :25:40. | :25:47. | |
tomorrow, that is where the rain gets its act together. This rain | :25:47. | :25:50. | |
band makes his way from the West. If we take a look at the pressure | :25:50. | :25:59. | |
chart, it is a cold front. We still have that milder air. For Thursday, | :25:59. | :26:06. | |
another mild day. At rain clears the way towards the north-east. We | :26:06. | :26:11. | |
have some heavy and thundery showers possible in the West. | :26:11. | :26:15. | |
Friday, it is a showery day with temperatures up to 15 Celsius. At | :26:15. | :26:20. | |

give his voters the final say in a referendum on May the funding | :26:30. | :26:33. | |
package has sent the markets reeling. They are fears that if the | :26:33. | :26:37. | |
Greeks don't accept the deal, the whole future of the eurozone could | :26:37. | :26:41. | |
be thrown into doubt. Scotland will almost certainly | :26:42. | :26:45. | |
become the first country in Europe to introduce a minimum price for | :26:45. | :26:49. | |
alcohol. The SNP Government says it is the best way to tackle the | :26:49. | :26:52. | |
serious criminal, social and health problems associated with heart | :26:53. | :26:57. | |
Harby's. Cheaper, strong drink will become more expensive. | :26:57. | :27:02. | |
Both figures suggest the UK economy grew by more than expected between | :27:02. | :27:08. | |
July and September. Economic output increased by 0.5% compared with a | :27:08. | :27:12. | |
rise of 0.1% in the previous three months. | :27:12. | :27:15. | |
