to upgrade the country's cable system. | :00:31. | :00:34. | |
It's one of Scotland's best-known feats of engineering - now the | :00:34. | :00:40. | |
public could be given the chance to climb to the top to see the view. | :00:40. | :00:43. | |

sell-out concerts in tribute to Gerry Rafferty. | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
A teenager killed in woodland near his school had 20 separate stab | :01:04. | :01:07. | |
wounds, a court has heard. As details of 16-year-old Jack Frew's | :01:07. | :01:10. | |
injuries were described, his family left the courtroom. On trial is 19- | :01:10. | :01:12. | |
year-old Craig Roy who admits attacking the East Kilbride | :01:12. | :01:15. | |

Laura Bicker reports. The family arrived at the court to find out | :01:30. | :01:35. | |
how their son died and they'll said the details were to a harrowing for | :01:35. | :01:40. | |
him to bear. His body was found in this would not far from his home in | :01:40. | :01:44. | |
East Kilbride. The pathologist told the jury that he had 20 separates | :01:44. | :01:49. | |
Dublin's. Some of them were up to nine centimetres date but the most | :01:49. | :01:54. | |
significant injury with a 16 cms/across his neck. He said the | :01:54. | :01:59. | |
school boy would have been dead within minutes. He told the court | :01:59. | :02:02. | |

Mette Marit kept his eyes firmly fixed to his feet as the evidence | :02:23. | :02:33. | |
:02:33. | :02:49. | ||
was shown. -- Craig Roy. He admits The court also heard that he told a | :02:49. | :02:52. | |
doctor from Strathclyde Police that he had a history of self-harm and | :02:52. | :02:56. | |
that he scratched and punched himself to relieve anger and stress. | :02:56. | :03:06. | |
:03:06. | :03:09. | ||
The trial continues tomorrow. Four men have appeared in court | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
charged with offences of breach of the peace after the Rangers match | :03:13. | :03:20. | |
at Ibrox on Saturday. They appeared at Glasgow Sheriff Court. One is | :03:20. | :03:26. | |
also charged with assaulting a woman police officer. All four deny | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
the charges. They have been bailed on condition they do not attend any | :03:30. | :03:37. | |
SPL matches. Still to come. Sat Nav technology is used to gain a | :03:37. | :03:43. | |
remarkable insight into the lives of Scottish seabirds. | :03:43. | :03:48. | |
We look ahead to tonight's special select reviewed to Gerry Rafferty. | :03:48. | :03:54. | |
In sport, Andy Murray barely breaks sweat as he continues to progress. | :03:54. | :03:58. | |
Rangers cast an eye over some possible new employees. Edinburgh | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
become only the second Scottish side to get into the last eight of | :04:02. | :04:12. | |
:04:12. | :04:15. | ||
the Highland Cup. Could this be Scotland's version of | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
the Eiffel Tower? Rail chiefs are looking at the idea of building a | :04:18. | :04:21. | |
viewing platform on the Forth Bridge to allow visitors to scale | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
the heights of the 300 foot structure. So how likely is this to | :04:24. | :04:28. | |
happen? We sent Gavin Walker to find out? | :04:28. | :04:32. | |
It is one of Scotland's most iconic constructions. Network Rail is | :04:32. | :04:37. | |
thinking of building a public viewing platform at the top. | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
the first time in 10 years, the bridge has no scaffolding or | :04:40. | :04:45. | |
cladding on it so it seemed a good idea to open up the bridge to a | :04:45. | :04:51. | |
wider audience. Planning is at an early stage but this is the type of | :04:51. | :04:55. | |
you that visitors could enjoy it if it gets the go-ahead. The viewing | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
tower would offer panoramic views. How easy would it be to build a | :05:00. | :05:05. | |
viewing platform and give safe access to the public? I think it | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
would be relatively straightforward. The experience we have seen over | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
the last 10 years of the repainting exercise has demonstrated that | :05:13. | :05:18. | |
contractors can get a platform up to the top of the Fife cantilever. | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
A permanent structure that gave safe access to the public should | :05:21. | :05:29. | |
not be an insurmountable problem. At the ends of the bridge why the | :05:29. | :05:32. | |
villages of north and south Queensferry. Trafficking tourists | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
through either of them would provide a major boost to their | :05:35. | :05:41. | |
economies. To have a view. Up here would be absolutely fantastic. Isle | :05:41. | :05:46. | |
of being by the water but to actually be able to climb up and | :05:46. | :05:50. | |
see everything would be fantastic. It would definitely be an | :05:50. | :05:55. | |
attraction. Like the big wheel in London. How's your head for | :05:55. | :06:01. | |
heights? No problem. The proposals are in their infancy but that they | :06:01. | :06:07. | |
get the go-ahead it seems likely that at over 300 ft tall, this | :06:07. | :06:12. | |
would become one of Scotland's highest-profile visitor attractions. | :06:12. | :06:16. | |
The UK government has been warned that there could be a backlash in | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
England as a result of devolution and the debate about Scottish | :06:18. | :06:21. | |
independence. The Institute for Public Policy Research says that | :06:21. | :06:26. | |
English voters are becoming more assertive about their identity. | :06:26. | :06:28. | |
Meanwhile there's a special programme coming up later this week | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
as the Scottish government launches its consultation on the | :06:30. | :06:38. | |
independence referendum. Here's Glenn Campbell with the details. We | :06:38. | :06:44. | |
have more than usual to talk about this Borders night. As well as the | :06:44. | :06:50. | |
haggis, we thought we would serve up a good old Scottish argument. We | :06:50. | :06:54. | |
have top politicians on a panel, an audience including members of the | :06:54. | :06:57. | |
public and they will all be here at BBC headquarters in Glasgow on | :06:57. | :07:03. | |
Wednesday night. Join me and them for the big debate - choosing | :07:03. | :07:13. | |
Scotland's future on BBC One Scotland after the late news. It | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
has been claimed it 1500 jobs could be created after the announcement | :07:17. | :07:25. | |
of investment into power cables. Plans had been fast-tracked to help | :07:25. | :07:28. | |
allow companies to overcome problems in getting the or the | :07:28. | :07:32. | |
goods to market. The end of a hard day fixing a | :07:32. | :07:38. | |
power supply. They have had so many power cuts here that work has begun | :07:38. | :07:46. | |
to put the cables underground. It is neither cheap nor easy. We get | :07:46. | :07:50. | |
power cuts several times the year which is problematic. It is | :07:51. | :07:55. | |
problematic for those who work from home and the elderly. Billions of | :07:55. | :07:59. | |
pounds are to be spent by Scotland's biggest power firms to | :07:59. | :08:03. | |
give their grip more strength. This will help them shift electricity | :08:03. | :08:08. | |
around the country. Moving the electricity from where it is | :08:08. | :08:12. | |
produced to where it is needed is a distance of often hundreds of miles | :08:12. | :08:17. | |
and requires a huge network of pylons and cables. It is not cheap | :08:17. | :08:22. | |
and is expensive. Right now, it is the only option. The cost will be | :08:22. | :08:27. | |
borne by customers. The average household will pay 35p a year extra | :08:27. | :08:33. | |
on their bills. The regulator says that his value for money. There are | :08:33. | :08:38. | |
no easy or cheap options when it comes to energy bills. Continuing | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
to do nothing and relying on fossil fuels will see even higher bills | :08:41. | :08:47. | |
and that is the prediction from the Westminster government. It is the | :08:47. | :08:49. | |
Highlands and Islands who could gain the most from an improved | :08:49. | :08:54. | |
power grid. For years, they have struggled to get their energy to | :08:54. | :09:03. | |
market. The Scottish islands have a great deal of waves and wind | :09:03. | :09:05. | |
resource and the ability to transport that is of significant | :09:05. | :09:10. | |
importance to them economic clay and in terms of creating industry | :09:10. | :09:14. | |
on the island. All of that improvement work could take a | :09:14. | :09:19. | |
decade but it should create 1500 jobs. It will not be easy but the | :09:19. | :09:24. | |
energy firms involved hope they will be a lasting legacy. | :09:24. | :09:27. | |
A look now at what else has been happening across the country this | :09:27. | :09:37. | |
:09:37. | :09:37. | ||
Monday. School pupils held a vigil for a former classmate found in | :09:37. | :09:41. | |
Inverness. His body was discovered in the City on Saturday. The | :09:41. | :09:46. | |
director of Inverness Royal Academy said he was a popular boy. It is a | :09:46. | :09:49. | |
shock for the whole school community and a very sad day for | :09:49. | :09:52. | |
the school. 200 people who lost money and the | :09:52. | :09:59. | |
collapse of their pack have died without getting compensation. One | :09:59. | :10:03. | |
MP has asked the government to speed up the compensation process. | :10:03. | :10:07. | |
The Governor of Scotland's latest prison says inmates will find more | :10:07. | :10:13. | |
focus and work towards getting rehabilitation. The wall be fully | :10:13. | :10:16. | |
employed over 35 hour working weeks one normal working day is what | :10:16. | :10:21. | |
we're trying to achieve to instil that kind of work ethic. Hundreds | :10:21. | :10:27. | |
of new jobs have been announced by as that. Its depot was getting a | :10:27. | :10:33. | |
revamp and you stores are planned. The former air base at Edzell could | :10:33. | :10:36. | |
see a 1000 homes built on its grounds with plans for a new | :10:36. | :10:41. | |
village. Soldiers and their families due to | :10:41. | :10:46. | |
move to their new home at the RAF's former base income loss have met | :10:46. | :10:50. | |
with a delegation from Moray Council. About 500 personnel will | :10:51. | :10:54. | |
transfer a later this year. The Scotch whisky industry is in | :10:54. | :10:59. | |
for a pleasant surprise according to India's chief trade negotiator. | :10:59. | :11:03. | |
He has told BBC Scotland there is a strong prospect of a free-trade | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
agreement boosting Scottish exports. More on those and other exports on | :11:07. | :11:12. | |
the BBC Scotland website. Scientists have gained a remarkable | :11:12. | :11:15. | |
insight into the secret world of Scotland's seabirds, by using | :11:15. | :11:19. | |
technology more commonly found in car satnavs. The research has | :11:19. | :11:21. | |
revealed seabirds are travelling much further than we thought in | :11:21. | :11:25. | |
search of food. Our environment correspondent, David Miller, has | :11:25. | :11:35. | |
been finding out why. Scotland's seabird colonies are | :11:35. | :11:39. | |
noisy and chaotic. They are also internationally important but we | :11:39. | :11:48. | |
know relatively little about where these birds feed when the at sea. | :11:48. | :11:50. | |
Scientists have been using satellite tracking equipment to | :11:50. | :11:55. | |
discover where seabirds fly and how deep the dive. One guillemot has | :11:55. | :12:01. | |
set a new record. The bird left from this small island between | :12:01. | :12:06. | |
Shetland and Orkney and flew south all the way down to the coast of of | :12:06. | :12:10. | |
Dundee. That is about 340 kilometres which is a massive | :12:10. | :12:14. | |
distance for such a small bird to go just to get it close to these, | :12:14. | :12:21. | |
effectively. It is thought to shortages could explain why a our | :12:21. | :12:24. | |
seabirds are travelling further in search of a meal. We know colonies | :12:24. | :12:30. | |
in the north are struggling. In Orkney, there has been a 53% drop | :12:30. | :12:35. | |
in seabird numbers since 2000. Further south, guillemot numbers | :12:35. | :12:43. | |
are down by 66%. On the course of Aberdeenshire, and decline of 73% | :12:43. | :12:49. | |
has been recorded in the kitty wait population. What is going on? | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
Rising temperatures are blamed for a drop and plankton around the seas | :12:53. | :12:59. | |
of Scotland. Why does that matter? We have seen a 70% decrease in. In | :12:59. | :13:07. | |
since the 1960s and the Atlantic. Plankton is the sea bird food. You | :13:07. | :13:12. | |
see connections in their marine food chain. Identifying the most | :13:12. | :13:16. | |
important feeding grounds could lead to them being designated as | :13:16. | :13:20. | |
marine protected areas and a bid to prevent our noisiest seabird | :13:20. | :13:28. | |
Police have charged a man following the death of a pedestrian who was | :13:28. | :13:32. | |
struck by a car in Fife. 20-year- old Stephen McCann from Leslie was | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
knocked down in the early hours of Saturday morning on the outskirts | :13:35. | :13:37. | |
of the village. Police are appealing for information about the | :13:37. | :13:41. | |
movements of a silver Ford Focus involved in the accident. | :13:41. | :13:44. | |
New research suggests the health of the most deprived Glaswegians could | :13:44. | :13:48. | |
be impaired before they're even born. Scientists have discovered | :13:48. | :13:51. | |
that they're more likely to have an increased chance of developing | :13:51. | :13:54. | |
diabetes and heart disease later in life as part of their DNA than | :13:54. | :14:00. | |
their more affluent counterparts. The second of two sell-out concerts | :14:00. | :14:04. | |
in tribute to singer songwriter Gerry Rafferty will get underway in | :14:04. | :14:07. | |
Glasgow shortly. Organisers had to add an extra night after tickets | :14:07. | :14:10. | |
for the first concert, featuring the likes of Barbara Dickson and | :14:10. | :14:17. | |
The Proclaimers, sold out in just 48 hours. The concerts - part of | :14:17. | :14:19. | |
the Celtic Connections festival - were organised by friends and | :14:19. | :14:22. | |
family of the Paisley-born singer- songwriter who died a year ago at | :14:22. | :14:25. | |
the age of 63. Our arts correspondent Pauline McLean | :14:25. | :14:35. | |
:14:35. | :14:41. | ||
reports. # Winding your way down to Baker | :14:41. | :14:45. | |
Street... Baker Street was a small part of | :14:45. | :14:53. | |
Gerry Rafferty's career, and the Proclaimers worked with him on a | :14:53. | :15:02. | |
Letter to America. I think he really brought out stuff in the | :15:02. | :15:08. | |
song that was not in there before. Fame didn't sit easily with Gerry | :15:08. | :15:12. | |
Rafferty. This award in 1978 was an uncomfortable moment in the | :15:12. | :15:16. | |
spotlight. But friends and family organise the tribute concert say he | :15:16. | :15:21. | |
would have been proud to have seen his work celebrated. He had no | :15:21. | :15:27. | |
truck with the flimsy areas of celebrity, particularly as it comes | :15:27. | :15:31. | |
today, but he did enjoy it being the person who put a couple of | :15:31. | :15:41. | |
:15:41. | :15:41. | ||
really big songs into the pop canon. He liked to be recognised for that. | :15:41. | :15:46. | |
And for family, including his daughter Martha, celebrating is a | :15:46. | :15:49. | |
natural reaction. She and her cousin sang this song at her | :15:50. | :15:53. | |
father's funeral in Paisley last year. And they will perform it | :15:53. | :15:58. | |
again as part of the tribute concert. That is where it all began. | :15:58. | :16:04. | |
We hadn't seen each other for quite a long time, at least 20 years. And | :16:04. | :16:11. | |
I had a very fond memories of hearing them sing together as a | :16:11. | :16:18. | |
family, and especially my father's music. So it seemed very apt that | :16:18. | :16:28. | |
:16:28. | :16:37. | ||
# Night and Day... # Let's get the latest sports news now from Dougie. | :16:37. | :16:40. | |
Andy Murray has eased his way into the quarter finals of the | :16:40. | :16:44. | |
Australian Open tennis. But he's not happy? | :16:44. | :16:51. | |
He is not, he played well, but he didn't play for long enough. Let me | :16:51. | :16:54. | |
explain. The Scot beat Mikhail Kukushkin, with the man from | :16:54. | :16:56. | |
Kazakhstan forced to retire injured. It means Murray gets extra | :16:56. | :16:59. | |
preparation time for his next match, as David McDaid reports from | :16:59. | :17:05. | |
Melbourne. They like to take things easy here | :17:05. | :17:09. | |
at Melbourne Park. Andy Murray certainly had uneasy afternoon, | :17:09. | :17:13. | |
because his opponent retired injured just 49 minutes into the | :17:13. | :17:18. | |
around for encounter. Such a victory wasn't entirely to the | :17:18. | :17:24. | |
Scott's liking. It is boring. There was nothing happening on-court. It | :17:24. | :17:30. | |
would have been nice to have come off and think, I played | :17:30. | :17:38. | |
unbelievably. But I didn't have to do anything. As Murray raced to a | :17:38. | :17:43. | |
4-1 lead, the car's back asked for medical attention, but Murray | :17:43. | :17:49. | |
showed little sympathy, wrapping up the first set in 22 minutes. | :17:49. | :17:52. | |
Whither the tennis less than thrilling, coach Ivan Lendl was | :17:52. | :17:57. | |
finding other ways to amuse himself. Meanwhile, his charge rattled off | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
another 22 minutes set, shortly after which Kukushkin threw in the | :18:01. | :18:08. | |
towel. I thought it was pointless. He wasn't running, and people | :18:08. | :18:11. | |
probably weren't enjoying the match, so it was best that he retired. | :18:11. | :18:17. | |
Nothing was happening. So, short workout Andy Murray on his return | :18:17. | :18:21. | |
to the rod Laver Arena. But that doesn't mean he can put his feet up, | :18:21. | :18:29. | |
because he was straight back on the practice court for his preparation | :18:29. | :18:31. | |
for the quarter-final. James Forrest says his focus | :18:31. | :18:34. | |
remains entirely on helping Celtic to success. The winger was making a | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
club donation to a cancer charity in his hometown of Prestwick this | :18:37. | :18:44. | |
afternoon. He has been attracting interest from the English Premier | :18:44. | :18:50. | |
League side Tottenham, but says his head has not been turned. | :18:50. | :18:55. | |
And it is good to hear, but doesn't bother me. As long as I am playing | :18:55. | :19:04. | |
well with Celtic, where hope I can get a few points with them. I still | :19:04. | :19:12. | |
want to go the same path with them, and win the league. | :19:12. | :19:19. | |
Defender James McPake has signed on loan. Rangers has also been busy,. | :19:19. | :19:21. | |
Rangers have confirmed striker Zlatan Muslimovic and midfielder | :19:21. | :19:24. | |
Luigi Bruins will have trials this week. Muslimovic, a Bosnia team- | :19:24. | :19:27. | |
mate of Rangers defender Sasa Papac, has been without a club since his | :19:27. | :19:30. | |
contract with Greek side PAOK ended in the summer. Holland U21 | :19:30. | :19:33. | |
international Bruins is also a free agent after leaving Austrian side | :19:33. | :19:37. | |
Red Bull Salzburg last month. Now to rugby, and while Scotland | :19:37. | :19:40. | |
have struggled to score tries in recent years, one Scottish team is | :19:40. | :19:45. | |
having no problem crossing the line. Edinburgh have notched up 17 in six | :19:45. | :19:49. | |
games, and made it to the quarterfinals of the Heineken Cup. | :19:49. | :19:52. | |
Even their bitterest rivals have conceded that so far, it's a job | :19:52. | :19:59. | |
well done. Here's our rugby reporter, Jim Mason. | :19:59. | :20:04. | |
Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh today, deserted and quiet. But just | :20:04. | :20:10. | |
24 hours ago, it was the scene of a famous victory. The side made it to | :20:10. | :20:14. | |
the latter stages of the Heineken Cup. It is the premier club | :20:14. | :20:21. | |
competition. We have got special players who can do special things, | :20:21. | :20:29. | |
and they did it. The likes of Lee Jones, or they just create things, | :20:29. | :20:35. | |
and you no sooner or later they will score. So a famous victory for | :20:35. | :20:38. | |
Edinburgh rugby and its fans. The feel-good factor resulting from | :20:38. | :20:44. | |
that game is not just confined to the capital. The Six Nations trophy | :20:44. | :20:48. | |
was in Stirling today, but even thought of Scotland's forthcoming | :20:49. | :20:54. | |
campaign had to take second place. Awesome. I was watching at home | :20:54. | :21:01. | |
when they got that right. It was genuine delight for them. To win | :21:01. | :21:05. | |
the Heineken Cup is not easy, and it is going to be great for them to | :21:05. | :21:15. | |
:21:15. | :21:17. | ||
play to lose. Edinburgh have won their way with an impressive game. | :21:17. | :21:21. | |
It is a well coached team full of young guns tried to perform to get | :21:21. | :21:28. | |
in the national team. It meant that a team of mostly Scottish players | :21:28. | :21:34. | |
has preceded in us a -- competition against some of the world's best. | :21:34. | :21:44. | |
:21:44. | :21:48. | ||
For these players, the quarter- finals await, and a chance of | :21:48. | :21:50. | |
further matches. And finally to American Football, | :21:50. | :21:53. | |
and The New York Giants have made it to the Superbowl where they'll | :21:53. | :21:56. | |
face New England Patriots, and it's all thanks to a Scot. The Giants | :21:56. | :21:59. | |
got there after beating San Fransisco 49ers in overtime with a | :21:59. | :22:01. | |
field-goal from Greenock-born Lawrence Tynes. The Scot stared his | :22:01. | :22:03. | |
Grid Iron career kicking for the Scottish Claymores. | :22:03. | :22:11. | |
As think it was safe to say he was pretty happy with that! If you have | :22:11. | :22:16. | |
a suggestion, letter snow! A quick reminder that our money man Fergus | :22:16. | :22:19. | |
Muiread will be with us a week on Wednesday lunchtime. He'll be | :22:19. | :22:21. | |
discussing more of your e-mails following the recent storms. You | :22:21. | :22:25. | |
can send him any queries at [email protected]. | :22:25. | :22:29. | |
Now let's see what the weather's doing over the next few days with | :22:29. | :22:39. | |
:22:39. | :22:40. | ||
We saw some beautiful blue skies across Scotland today, and that | :22:40. | :22:46. | |
makes for a clear evening, with temperatures dropping. There will | :22:46. | :22:52. | |
be a change on the cards, though, as cloud thickens up, and arraign | :22:52. | :22:58. | |
putsches in land. It will turn to snow over the higher ground. The | :22:58. | :23:04. | |
Met Office have a yellow warning in force for snow over parts of the | :23:04. | :23:12. | |
Southern Highlands and Perth Show. It could affect the canine and the | :23:12. | :23:22. | |
:23:22. | :23:27. | ||
end 74. -- the A9 and the M74. Quite a fresh south-westerly wind | :23:27. | :23:33. | |
picking up along the west by the end of the night. Tomorrow's start | :23:33. | :23:41. | |
cloudy with outbreaks of rain. Dry for the north-east and Caithness. | :23:41. | :23:46. | |
And we hope for some sunshine for Shetland for much of the day. It | :23:46. | :23:52. | |
will be a rather dull, damp, drizzly day on the cards. | :23:52. | :23:57. | |
Temperatures will rise to seven or eight Celsius at best. The wind | :23:57. | :24:02. | |
picks up across the far north by the end of the afternoon. Another | :24:02. | :24:10. | |
area of rain starts to take effect by the evening. The out look for | :24:10. | :24:16. | |
the middle of the week, one weather front moves away, but another is | :24:16. | :24:21. | |
waiting in the wings. It will bring another area of more persistent | :24:21. | :24:31. | |
rain. That rain extends across the country and will be heavy in nature. | :24:31. | :24:40. | |
The wind will start to pick up, too. Double figures, 10 or 11 Celsius. | :24:40. | :24:49. | |
