:00:11. > :00:14.by hatred. Two extremely dangerous individuals.

:00:14. > :00:16.We'll be looking at who their targets were and the police

:00:16. > :00:18.operation that snared McKenzie and Muirhead.

:00:18. > :00:28.Also tonight... Total say they knew a month ago

:00:28. > :00:29.

:00:29. > :00:32.that there were problems on the abandoned Elgin platform. What is

:00:32. > :00:35.killing Scotland's Keys? Scientists believe they may have identified

:00:35. > :00:38.the culprit. And the Arbroath male voice choir

:00:38. > :00:46.that's celebrating a sell-out success, with a little help from

:00:46. > :00:49.Two men have been convicted of plotting to send parcel bombs to

:00:49. > :00:53.the Celtic manager Neil Lennon. Neil McKenzie and Trevor Muirhead

:00:53. > :00:58.were also found guilty of sending similar devices to the late QC Paul

:00:58. > :01:02.McBride and Trish Godman, a former Labour MSP. In a moment, we'll have

:01:02. > :01:05.the full background to this story. But first, to our reporter Catriona

:01:05. > :01:10.Renton, who's at the High Court in Glasgow. Catriona, what happened in

:01:10. > :01:14.court? The trial lasted more than a month,

:01:14. > :01:18.but it took the jury just two and a half hours to come to their

:01:18. > :01:21.decision. When they returned their verdict, it was guilty of

:01:21. > :01:27.conspiracy to assault the Celtic Manager, the late Paul McBride and

:01:27. > :01:32.Trish Godman. Originally, they'd been charged with conspiring to

:01:32. > :01:37.murder the three. Lord Turnbull told they pair they committed

:01:37. > :01:40.unusual but serious offences. As they were led, away Trevor

:01:40. > :01:47.Muirhead shrugged his shoulders and waved to his family, some of whom

:01:47. > :01:52.were in tears. Neil McKenzie blew a kiss to his family. One of them

:01:52. > :01:56.shouted, "You'll walk out of here." I spoke to Trevor Muirhead's wife

:01:56. > :01:59.shortly after the verdict. She said this had not been what she expected.

:01:59. > :02:06.Tonight, Trevor Muirhead and Neil McKenzie are back behind bars,

:02:06. > :02:09.where they've been since 13 May last year. They are due to return

:02:09. > :02:14.here to the High Court in Glasgow on the 27th of April, when they

:02:14. > :02:17.will be sentenced. One thing united Neil Lennon, Paul

:02:17. > :02:22.McBride and Trish Godman - their association with or support for

:02:22. > :02:25.Celtic Football Club. The manager, Neil Lennon, had become a figure of

:02:25. > :02:30.hate for many. The lawyer, the late Paul McBride QC, had represented

:02:30. > :02:34.the club and had been outspoken on its behalf. And the politician

:02:34. > :02:38.Trish Godman? Well, her crime had been to wear a Celtic shirt for a

:02:38. > :02:41.bet on her last day as an MSP. Our home affairs correspondent looks

:02:41. > :02:50.now at the background to the case and how the police tracked the

:02:50. > :02:54.bombers. It was a time of heightened

:02:54. > :02:58.tensions in Scottish football. For Arsene Old Firm Cup game, a very

:02:58. > :03:05.public altercation between senior club figures provoke the Scottish

:03:05. > :03:10.Government somewhat. Paul McBride, a close friend of Neil Lennon, made

:03:10. > :03:15.it clear what ethos of the football authorities. I just wish the

:03:15. > :03:20.Scottish Football Association that grow up and behave responsibly.

:03:20. > :03:24.Even veteran MSP Trish Godman made the news, choosing to wear a Celtic

:03:24. > :03:30.strip for last day in Parliament. All three became targets of

:03:30. > :03:33.packages sent to the work addresses. For the police, it became a

:03:34. > :03:39.desperate man hunt to find he was sending envelopes containing nails,

:03:40. > :03:43.wires and timing devices. In total, 5% and although none had reached

:03:43. > :03:47.its target saw exploded, police fears of a bombing campaign were

:03:47. > :03:52.heightened, because each was more sophisticated than the last. But

:03:52. > :03:56.where had the device has come from? This retail park in Ayrshire became

:03:56. > :03:59.the focus of the investigation after experts analyse the

:03:59. > :04:03.components and their packages. Police doing routine inquiries

:04:03. > :04:10.realised that many of the components used in the bonds could

:04:10. > :04:14.be bought in this store. It check of receipts and of CCTV footage

:04:14. > :04:19.revealed that a five envelopes, plastic travel bottles and a rubber

:04:20. > :04:24.watch had all been bought here at the same time. The CCTV footage

:04:24. > :04:28.proved crucial, as it showed Neil McKenzie buying the materials

:04:28. > :04:33.recovered from the devices. Buying the material all at once and from

:04:33. > :04:36.shops close to their homes was one of many mistakes made by a Trevor

:04:36. > :04:41.Muirhead and Neil McKenzie, who were described in court as

:04:41. > :04:44.Hillbillies. A police listening device was planted in Neil

:04:44. > :04:49.McKenzie's car as he drove around North Ayrshire. The pair were

:04:49. > :04:53.recorded talking. Were she planned one outside the police station. I

:04:53. > :05:01.think they will get the message. -- we should plant one outside the

:05:01. > :05:04.police station. We should put the evidence in the bin. Neil McKenzie

:05:04. > :05:11.claimed the packages were hoaxes and he had learnt to make fake

:05:11. > :05:17.bombs by watching the 18th. But experts say the chemical they were

:05:17. > :05:21.using is very unstable, particularly for amateurs. Hydrogen

:05:21. > :05:25.peroxide is a ferry me, material. The other is nail varnish remover.

:05:25. > :05:30.Once you start mixing them, you create a highly volatile mix that

:05:30. > :05:36.will cause ignition. It may have been amateurish, but for police,

:05:36. > :05:42.there was a clear intention to cause harm. Two men who were intent

:05:42. > :05:46.on carrying out a determined Act, predicated by hatred. Two extremely

:05:46. > :05:51.dangerous individuals who involved themselves in the manufacture of

:05:51. > :05:53.explosives substances and, for me, that identified a certain level of

:05:53. > :05:58.intellect was put them in the bracket of extremely dangerous

:05:58. > :06:03.people. During the trial, or one of the

:06:03. > :06:10.targets, Paul McBride, died. Neil Lennon was one of his pallbearers.

:06:10. > :06:14.The judge said SVRs Neil McKenzie had been convicted of serious but

:06:14. > :06:17.unusual offences and will be sentenced next month.

:06:17. > :06:20.The oil company Total says it knew a month ago that there were

:06:20. > :06:22.problems with a well on the now- abandoned Elgin oil platform. The

:06:22. > :06:26.installation was evacuated last Sunday when gas started leaking

:06:26. > :06:35.from a pipe 4,000 metres below the surface. Total have also been

:06:35. > :06:40.giving details of options to plug the leak. Steven Duff reports.

:06:40. > :06:46.This picture released by Total clearly shows gas escaping from

:06:46. > :06:50.Elgin platforms. It was taking just a hours after workers started to be

:06:50. > :06:58.evacuated on Sunday. It has been a long, difficult week for the French

:06:58. > :07:04.owned oil company. Firstly, I would like to stress the very deep regret

:07:04. > :07:08.that I personally and everyone in Total is feeling. Total revealed it

:07:08. > :07:14.was 25th February when the Troubles will mile -- troublesome well first

:07:14. > :07:18.became a problem. Control experts were in the process of putting it

:07:18. > :07:23.when the rupture on Sunday happened. Early indications are there was a

:07:23. > :07:26.mechanical failure some were in the wealth. There was a sudden no

:07:26. > :07:33.pressure increase followed by an escape of mud and gas. There was no

:07:33. > :07:39.evidence of any burning. I can see none on the picture. It is escaping

:07:39. > :07:43.towards the sea. The focus now is first of all dealing with the flair

:07:43. > :07:47.and actions to be taken on matter if it does not by itself burn-out.

:07:47. > :07:51.Secondly, it is so stopping the release of gas. Thirdly, the

:07:52. > :07:55.situation with regard to the other rebels on the platform.

:07:55. > :07:58.That flair above the platform, which was left on when the last

:07:58. > :08:02.workers left in the early hours of Monday morning, appears to be

:08:02. > :08:07.slowly burning itself out. But plans are in place to extinguish it,

:08:07. > :08:11.to remove any risk it could ignite the gas cloud.

:08:11. > :08:16.We are looking at whether it would be safety take aircraft in there

:08:16. > :08:19.and dice the flame itself. That is one that is being looked at. We

:08:19. > :08:23.have got fire fighting vessels on seen her looking at the capability,

:08:23. > :08:30.or where it has been saved to bring them closer to the platform. We're

:08:30. > :08:34.also looking at putting personnel back on board.

:08:34. > :08:38.Tonight, to drilling rigs are heading towards the Elgin platform

:08:38. > :08:41.to start work on two relief wells that will eventually stop the un

:08:41. > :08:44.controlled gas leak. That is likely to take months.

:08:44. > :08:46.You're watching Reporting Scotland from the BBC. Still to come on the

:08:46. > :08:53.programme... George Galloway triumphs in a shock

:08:53. > :08:58.by-election victory over Labour in Bradford West.

:08:58. > :09:00.And the opera star hitting the high notes in Arbroath.

:09:00. > :09:04.In sport... Rangers administrators set a

:09:04. > :09:06.deadline for final bids to buy the club to be made. We'll have the

:09:06. > :09:09.details. And the future of the Scottish Open

:09:09. > :09:17.golf tournament has been secured for three years.

:09:17. > :09:21.All the details and a bit more There's been a remarkable decline

:09:21. > :09:24.in bee colonies across the globe in recent years. And that should be a

:09:25. > :09:27.worry for all of us because it's bees which help pollinate our fruit

:09:27. > :09:31.and vegetables. But researchers at Stirling University think they can

:09:31. > :09:39.shed light on the mystery of the bees' decline. Our environment

:09:39. > :09:44.correspondent, David Miller, is in Midlothian this evening.

:09:44. > :09:48.Sally, take a look at the fields behind the. You can see they are

:09:48. > :09:52.still fairly bare. But they will soon be bursting into life. We

:09:52. > :09:56.depend on bees to pollinate many of the crops we like to eat, even the

:09:57. > :10:00.cost and the like to wear. That is why this research is so important,

:10:00. > :10:06.research which is focusing on the use of a new generation of

:10:07. > :10:11.insecticides. But the humble Bumblebee - still a familiar sight

:10:11. > :10:19.in our parks and gardens, but these insects are under threat.

:10:19. > :10:24.Scientists want to know why. There are white tails, red tails...

:10:24. > :10:28.here shows exposure to a widely used insecticide lead to an 85%

:10:28. > :10:33.drop in the number of Bumblebee queens. Research in France has been

:10:33. > :10:37.studying the impact on honey bees. It seems that it interferes with

:10:37. > :10:41.their ability to navigate and find their way back to the nest. It does

:10:41. > :10:48.not kill them directly, but ever be gets lost and can find its nest, it

:10:48. > :10:51.is as good as dead anyway. Scotland's farmers say they rely on

:10:51. > :10:56.insecticides, but insist they are doing all they can to protect

:10:56. > :11:00.bumblebees and honey bees, too. bees are an essential part of

:11:00. > :11:04.everything we do in farming. We're not wanting to see them disappear.

:11:04. > :11:09.We want to see these pollinators continue. There are very useful in

:11:09. > :11:12.what they do. They create the seeds that we are this. We are as

:11:12. > :11:16.dependent on the bees as we offer on the sprays.

:11:16. > :11:20.But beekeepers want to see urgent action and say the UK should follow

:11:20. > :11:24.the example of our European neighbours.

:11:24. > :11:29.These studies can be added to all the evidence that points towards

:11:29. > :11:38.the urgent need to fall into line with those continental European

:11:38. > :11:42.countries which have taken these synthetic neonicotinoids pesticides,

:11:42. > :11:46.insecticides, be toxic products off the market.

:11:46. > :11:51.Whether it is in the city were the countryside, bees matter to all of

:11:51. > :11:56.us. The question is, how can we keep them buzzing?

:11:56. > :12:00.It is a difficult question with no easy answers. Habitat loss and

:12:00. > :12:05.climate change to a possibly two major factors here. This evening,

:12:05. > :12:13.this research means it is the use of neonicotinoids which has once

:12:20. > :12:25.pensioner at her cottage. 80-year- old Jenny Methven was found at her

:12:25. > :12:29.home in Forteviot. William Kean made a brief appearance in private

:12:29. > :12:34.at Perth Sheriff Court. It is alleged he murdered her by a

:12:34. > :12:38.hitting her with a blunt instrument. He was remanded in custody.

:12:38. > :12:41.The former Celtic midfielder and Aston Villa captain Stiliyan Petrov

:12:41. > :12:48.has been diagnosed with acute leukaemia. The West Midlands club

:12:48. > :12:51.has announced that this afternoon. He joined the Birmingham side from

:12:51. > :12:57.Celtic for �6.5 million in 2006 after seven years in Glasgow. The

:12:57. > :12:59.Celtic manager Neil Lennon said the club was devastated by news of his

:12:59. > :13:06.illness. A look now at what else has been

:13:06. > :13:11.happy across the country. Public hearings for the official

:13:11. > :13:15.inquiry into patients given contaminated blood in the 19 some

:13:16. > :13:20.diplomats and 1980s have closed. The inquiry has heard from some of

:13:20. > :13:24.the hundreds of people who were infected with hepatitis C and HIV

:13:25. > :13:30.following NHS blood transfusions. Edinburgh City Council says it will

:13:30. > :13:34.pursue a local protest group fought �75,000 to cover costs incurred in

:13:34. > :13:39.their recent legal case against the operative. The action group had

:13:39. > :13:42.taken the council to court to try to halt plans to build a new high

:13:42. > :13:46.school. Shetland has the best quality of

:13:46. > :13:50.life of any rural area in the country. That is according to a

:13:50. > :13:53.report by the Bank of Scotland that looked into education, health and

:13:53. > :13:56.cost of living. Fortunately, they did not take into account levels of

:14:05. > :14:10.bomb the area. Firefighters have been called out to dozens of fires

:14:10. > :14:15.in recent days. Fire chiefs have reiterated their warnings to people

:14:15. > :14:18.venturing into the countryside. They need to be very careful with

:14:19. > :14:22.regards to campfires, cigarettes. We would be very grateful for their

:14:22. > :14:27.assistance. Art is work for these apprentices

:14:27. > :14:32.from a college. They have been helping an artist build a large-

:14:32. > :14:35.scale installation for an exhibition. 6000 bricks will be the

:15:12. > :15:16.engineered one of the greatest political shocks of all time,

:15:16. > :15:21.humiliating labour in a by-election in one of their own English

:15:22. > :15:28.heartlands. It was a result that even George

:15:52. > :15:59.lost his Commons seat and failed to get connected to the Scottish

:15:59. > :16:03.Parliament. But the man who brought the word indefatigable to a wider

:16:03. > :16:08.audience has proved to be indefatigable. He is one of the

:16:08. > :16:12.finest wordsmiths of his generation. When he makes a speak on form in

:16:12. > :16:20.the House of Commons, he is well worth listening to. He has rarely

:16:56. > :17:01.something the larger parties should take note of and try to learn his

:17:01. > :17:08.tricks. The result has been called a one off but he did it before in

:17:37. > :17:46.Rangers administrators have set a deigned line of Wednesday for best

:17:46. > :17:50.and final -- deadline for best and final offers. The Rangers manager

:17:50. > :17:55.Ally McCoist admitted he could understand why potential new owners

:17:55. > :18:03.would want to wind the clock back and start again debt free.

:18:03. > :18:08.-- wine to the club up debt free. Tonight's match against AC Milan is

:18:08. > :18:14.a virtual sell-out but still Rangers's future remains very much

:18:14. > :18:18.in the hands of others. One option is that of winding up the 140-year-

:18:18. > :18:22.old Club and reforming it as a new company. If I was sat here as a

:18:22. > :18:29.businessman, it might be different. But sat here as a supporter with a

:18:29. > :18:33.love of the club, it would not be the preferred options. But I can

:18:33. > :18:38.totally understand the business angle of it and it probably would

:18:38. > :18:42.support a lot of business-minded people, that option. What are the

:18:42. > :18:48.pros and cons of this so called Rick? The debts would remain with

:18:48. > :18:52.the old company but they would have to reapply with membership of the

:18:52. > :18:55.SDLP with the FSA also having a say. They would have to wait a minimum

:18:55. > :18:59.of three years before being eligible to play in Europe. What do

:18:59. > :19:05.the fans make of it? We have responsibilities to take care of at

:19:05. > :19:13.most Rangers fans want to pay off the debts. We do not want to do

:19:13. > :19:17.that. It is too easy a way out. This is Rangers. I would love for

:19:17. > :19:21.someone to come in and keep the club the same. If we can get more

:19:21. > :19:26.money to back it up, I would be quite happy. These fans should soon

:19:26. > :19:36.find their. The administrators have asked three parties to submit best

:19:36. > :19:40.and final offers by Wednesday. They include a Far Eastern consortium.

:19:40. > :19:46.Neil Lennon has written to the Scottish FA why you score described

:19:46. > :19:49.a refereeing decision in the FA Cup final defeat as criminal. The wrath

:19:49. > :19:54.but Anthony Stokes for diving went Neil Lennon thought they should

:19:54. > :20:00.have been awarded a pen ton of -- penalty. The Scottish FA gave hint

:20:00. > :20:04.dull today to explain the comments. His club captain defended him today

:20:04. > :20:09.saying that the FSA was over- sensitive. You cannot say anything

:20:09. > :20:14.about anybody. It is tough. If decisions go your way, you are

:20:14. > :20:19.upset. You have got to try and close off from that and not talk

:20:19. > :20:24.rubbish. The future of the Scottish Open golf tournament has been

:20:24. > :20:28.secured for the next three years. Aberdeen Asset Management have

:20:28. > :20:34.taken on the stump as -- taken on the sponsorship. The announcement

:20:34. > :20:43.was made today at Edinburgh Castle with Paul lorry in attendance along

:20:43. > :20:46.with the Scottish First Minister. Good shot! It is a great day for

:20:46. > :20:52.Scottish golf, securing the Scottish Open at in the vital piece

:23:38. > :23:44.We have been warned, the party is Do not be disheartened, it will be

:23:44. > :23:49.dry. A cracking week of weather. Plenty of blue skies and warm

:23:49. > :23:57.sunshine. It is all coming to an end. Cold air coming down from the

:23:57. > :24:01.north. The temperatures can only go one way and that is down. We will

:24:01. > :24:08.be closer to average through the weekend, around ten degrees. Next

:24:08. > :24:12.week, perhaps a bit lower than average. Tonight, eight cloudy and

:24:12. > :24:18.dry. The cloud across the north- west Highlands could be fit enough

:24:18. > :24:24.for a little light rain. Generally dry and cloudy across the mainland.

:24:24. > :24:28.Keeping temperatures mild. For Shetland, just into the colder air,

:24:28. > :24:34.lows of around two and wintry showers by dawn. Saturday and

:24:34. > :24:38.Sunday, it will be dry and bright. Ordinarily, we would be saying the

:24:38. > :24:45.weekend is not too bad. But compared to the week we have had,

:24:45. > :24:54.you may be disappointed by the temperatures. There should be some

:24:54. > :24:59.sunshine here and there. Down the east coast, cooler. Shetland sits

:24:59. > :25:03.at just six degrees. Wintry showers could be continuing there. If you

:25:03. > :25:09.are out and about, walking and climbing, it will be dry but

:25:09. > :25:14.generally cloudy. Temperatures on the summits close to freezing. For

:25:14. > :25:20.the best of the sunshine will be on the southern up slopes. The

:25:20. > :25:27.temperatures in the Cairngorms will go down to around minus one. There

:25:27. > :25:31.could be some wind chill where the winds are stronger. A touch of

:25:31. > :25:37.frost. For Sunday, not too bad. They will be some rain across the

:25:37. > :25:42.north-west. Further south and east, dry and bright. Temperatures up a

:25:42. > :25:47.touch on Saturday. All in all, not too bad. Next week, it all changes.

:25:47. > :25:51.A cold front is sinking south on Monday. That will bring rain,

:25:52. > :25:59.widespread rain. Also, much coal their air in behind it. For the

:25:59. > :26:03.start of next week, it will be a wet story -- much colder air.

:26:03. > :26:06.Temperatures around 10 to 12 degrees at best. By Tuesday, we

:26:06. > :26:09.could be talking about seven degrees at best for Glasgow and
