:00:32. > :00:37.which her son said he couldn't forgive him. He was a friend of

:00:37. > :00:41.mine for 20 years, we where almost like the others. I cannot begin to

:00:41. > :00:46.understand or even forgive what he did to my mum. The Duke of

:00:46. > :00:50.Edinburgh leaves hospital telling nurses in Aberdeen to behave

:00:50. > :00:54.themselves. He is recuperating at Balmoral.

:00:54. > :00:59.At growing problem - at almost 250,000 people in Scotland now have

:00:59. > :01:05.dire BT's with most cases related to obesity.

:01:05. > :01:10.-- di Eighties. Ki Sung-Yueng looked set to leave Celtic for

:01:10. > :01:14.Swansea. The son of murder pensioner Jenny

:01:14. > :01:18.Methven says he and the man convicted for her killing had been

:01:18. > :01:23.almost like brothers. David Methven says he cannot understand or

:01:23. > :01:28.forgive William Kean for the attack. Jenny Methven was battered to death

:01:28. > :01:34.at her remote Perthshire cottage. I jury today found William Kean

:01:34. > :01:40.guilty of her murder. He Jenny Methven's son David believes court

:01:40. > :01:44.having just seen his mother's killer jailed for life.

:01:44. > :01:50.A police officer spoke on his behalf. William Kean was a friend

:01:50. > :01:56.of mine for more than 20 years. We were almost like brothers. I cannot

:01:56. > :02:03.begin to understand or forget what he did to my mum. His denials in

:02:03. > :02:07.the time since and particularly during this trial fill me with

:02:07. > :02:12.contempt. William Kean tried to blame David Methven for the murder.

:02:12. > :02:17.He claimed he was involved in supplying drugs, acclaimed David

:02:17. > :02:22.Methven denies false up the jury were told large sums of money were

:02:22. > :02:28.kept in Jenny Methven's home. David Methven says some of it was his but

:02:28. > :02:35.most of it was his mother's. Jenny Methven suffered at least 14 blows

:02:35. > :02:41.to her head. David Methven said he had been -- William Kean said she

:02:41. > :02:45.had been killed by her drug-addict friend. The brutal killing

:02:45. > :02:51.triggered one of Tayside Police's biggest inquiries in recent years

:02:51. > :02:55.of up David Methven found his murder mother when he returned to

:02:55. > :03:00.the home they shared also up a video was shown to the court which

:03:00. > :03:06.was taken by investigators inside the cottage. It showed Jenny

:03:06. > :03:16.Methven's body on the kitchen floor. She was covered in blood with two

:03:16. > :03:22.

:03:22. > :03:28.blood-soaked hills nearby. -- towels. Police have a prime suspect.

:03:28. > :03:35.In this Perthshire village, William Kean apparently tried to commit

:03:35. > :03:45.suicide. What was the evidence that snared William Kean? This car was

:03:45. > :03:46.

:03:46. > :03:51.caught on CCTV camera heading for the -- Jenny Methven's home. The

:03:51. > :03:58.car pulls up outside. Jenny Methven is on the phone at the time and

:03:58. > :04:01.hangs up. William Kean's bloody fingerprint was found on the

:04:01. > :04:08.telephone. The jury rejected William Kean's claimed that he had

:04:08. > :04:14.been at the cottage and panicked upon finding ha already injured.

:04:14. > :04:19.William Kean's wife Mary told the trial he was a quiet and reserved

:04:19. > :04:28.man. The detectives say William Kean is yet to go if a motor for

:04:28. > :04:32.the murder. If he has any heart, he will come forward to give us his

:04:32. > :04:40.motive. That is the big question left over the murder of Jenny

:04:40. > :04:44.Methven, the one only her killer cancer.

:04:44. > :04:49.-- can answer. The Duke of Edinburgh is Bacchic

:04:49. > :04:55.Balmoral following a five-night stay at Aberdeen Infirmary. He told

:04:55. > :05:02.the staff he was going home to Balmoral to enjoy the rest of his

:05:02. > :05:08.holiday. Prince Philip's seen to be in very good spirits when he left?

:05:09. > :05:13.-- Philip seemed. He spent five nights in Aberdeen Infirmary after

:05:13. > :05:20.being admitted last Wednesday. He left through the main door of the

:05:20. > :05:24.hospital and shook hands with the nurses that look after him. She was

:05:24. > :05:29.well enough to tell them that they should behave themselves and he

:05:29. > :05:35.wanted to return to Balmoral to rest and recuperate. He went down

:05:35. > :05:40.to the Range Rover and was driven the 50 miles or so back here to

:05:40. > :05:46.Balmoral. How long will the Royal Family be staying at Balmoral?

:05:46. > :05:55.you know, they come up here every summer. The love coming to Balmoral.

:05:55. > :05:58.They will be here for about another six weeks. The Duke of Edinburgh

:05:58. > :06:08.arrived here they earlier this afternoon and weight to a number of

:06:08. > :06:13.well-wishers that we are standing here. -- waved to. He is presumably

:06:13. > :06:23.all being doctor's orders right now and is resting and recuperating. --

:06:23. > :06:23.

:06:23. > :06:28.all being. Whether the Duke will be well enough to attend the all

:06:28. > :06:38.scheduled for later this week, we will see. His next official

:06:38. > :06:39.

:06:39. > :06:44.engagement is when the Queen opens the Paralympic Games next Wednesday.

:06:44. > :06:48.The due it will what to attend as many events as possible but tonight,

:06:48. > :06:53.it is about getting him rested and recovering from his lengthy stay in

:06:53. > :06:58.Aberdeen Royal Infirmary. Her you are watching Reporting Scotland.

:06:59. > :07:05.Still to come - the biggest creator's in the country are ready

:07:05. > :07:11.to take radioactive waste from the Dounreay nuclear plant. We look at

:07:11. > :07:16.the pioneering technique recovering glut spelt.

:07:16. > :07:23.Ki Sung-Yueng what set to be leaving Celtic. Ally McCoist is

:07:23. > :07:32.hoping there will be no repeat of this as he prepares to face Fokker.

:07:32. > :07:39.-- Falkirk. Almost 250,000 people in Scotland now have dire BT's with

:07:39. > :07:48.a number increasing by about 10,000 a year with most cases related to

:07:48. > :07:54.obesity. -- diabetes. 247,000, 278 are the number of people with this

:07:54. > :07:58.condition that the most recent count. That is almost equal to the

:07:58. > :08:07.entire population of Dumfries and Galloway and the Borders put

:08:07. > :08:13.together. 80% -- 80% of people have tight to which is linked to being

:08:13. > :08:21.overweight. -- type 2. This can lead to blindness, heart disease

:08:21. > :08:25.and even the risk of losing fingers and toes. The strongest risk factor

:08:25. > :08:31.is your weight and body mass index. That is because we now recognise

:08:32. > :08:36.that there is a strong link between putting fat in organs which are

:08:36. > :08:40.relevant to your sugar metabolism. Too much fat in the leather leads

:08:40. > :08:46.the liver to make excess of a mix the sugar when the body does not

:08:46. > :08:50.require it so you wake up with excessive amounts of sugar. Once

:08:50. > :08:55.the fact around or it -- around your organs has done this, it is

:08:55. > :09:01.usually for life. There is some evidence a low-calorie diet can

:09:01. > :09:05.help reduce your blood sugar level to normal and research is ongoing.

:09:05. > :09:12.It is suggested you keep healthy body weight, take 30 minutes of

:09:12. > :09:19.activity at a, can soon you a fiver the of food and vegetables and eat

:09:19. > :09:23.less sugar and fat. The widow of a 76-year-old man has

:09:23. > :09:27.told the High Court in Glasgow how she saw her Land Rover Discovery

:09:27. > :09:31.been reversed over her husband. Minnie Simpson says she has not

:09:31. > :09:36.been able to sleep since her husband was killed last November.

:09:36. > :09:40.He was trying to stop thieves from stealing his car.

:09:40. > :09:46.At Dundee-based building firm has gone into receivership with the

:09:46. > :09:52.loss of 130 jobs after more than 40 years of trading. The receivers

:09:52. > :09:56.were called in to Brown Construction this morning. It has

:09:56. > :10:02.been dubbed Dounreay's graveyard. The first phase of the project to

:10:02. > :10:05.build a series of nuclear waste vaults has just been completed. Two

:10:05. > :10:13.massive pits will eventually hold all the low-level radioactive waste

:10:13. > :10:19.generated as the nuclear power plant is demolished.

:10:19. > :10:22.And it may look like a quarry but it is actually at him. All the low-

:10:22. > :10:32.level nuclear waste that has been developed since the Dounreay

:10:32. > :10:33.

:10:33. > :10:38.nuclear power plant opened will be contained here. We're talking about

:10:38. > :10:43.gloves, items of equipment, the building's structure, and other

:10:43. > :10:47.things that will have been contaminated over the years. When

:10:47. > :10:55.it been a power plant is the commissioned, all the low-level

:10:56. > :11:02.waste can be placed here. They have had to remove half a million tons

:11:02. > :11:06.of rock to make these new faults. They will be installing walls of

:11:06. > :11:10.over one metre summit. This place has been dubbed Dounreay's

:11:10. > :11:17.graveyard. It is a massive hole in the ground and will be the final

:11:17. > :11:23.resting place of a 50 year nuclear experiment. The place will be

:11:23. > :11:33.sealed so that no water can see how it also up there has been some

:11:33. > :11:37.

:11:37. > :11:45.local opposition. -- can seep out. This was once a tranquil

:11:45. > :11:49.environment. It has been totally destroyed. Despite criticism, then

:11:49. > :11:53.they's operators say that packing up all the waste and containing it

:11:53. > :11:58.here is the safest and most effective way to deal with this

:11:58. > :12:03.plant's legacy. Are pioneering technique to a cover

:12:04. > :12:08.blood spilt during major operations has been developed by bio-engineers

:12:08. > :12:13.at Strathclyde University. It will make it easier for patients to get

:12:13. > :12:18.their own blood back and reduce the need for transfusions. The process,

:12:18. > :12:23.called Hemosep, is hoping for a slice of the multi-billion-dollar

:12:23. > :12:28.world like market. This report is not for the squeamish.

:12:28. > :12:35.Up it is unavoidable. The bigger the operation, the more blood gets

:12:35. > :12:40.built. After a heart operation, much blood can be left behind. It

:12:40. > :12:47.has been a costly operation to get the blood back and get it back into

:12:47. > :12:54.the patient. You first have to prime the back and now we pour in

:12:54. > :12:59.the blood. The Hemosep Machine stops the blood from settling. It

:12:59. > :13:05.moves one way and then back in the other direction. The secret is in

:13:05. > :13:14.the back, up polycarbonate membrane that soaks up unwanted plasma while

:13:14. > :13:18.preserving the blood cells. In the centre here, we have the plasma. We

:13:18. > :13:26.have separated the plasma from the cells and will then deliver these

:13:26. > :13:30.compensated cells back to the patient. There are always blood

:13:30. > :13:35.transfusions in cases like this but that is an expensive business.

:13:35. > :13:42.There are biological advantages to getting your own luck back.

:13:42. > :13:51.advantage of your own plot is that there is always a risk of a

:13:51. > :14:01.transfusion reaction. -- blood. machine has already been used in

:14:01. > :14:06.more than 100 operations. Blood is not free, not by any measure. In

:14:06. > :14:12.North America, the greatest the statistics suggest that at

:14:12. > :14:17.transfusion costs upwards of $1,600. There is a financial incentive.

:14:17. > :14:23.Putting a patient's blood back is not new but the teams say a process

:14:23. > :14:28.this simple and relatively cheap is. Hopes are high that Hemosep will be

:14:28. > :14:38.a commercial success in which case, lots of time and money and blood

:14:38. > :14:45.

:14:45. > :14:49.Fewer Scots are hitting the High Street. The drop in football is

:14:50. > :14:59.much higher than the reduction experienced across the UK as a

:15:00. > :15:02.

:15:02. > :15:05.whole. A squeeze in a family budgets is being blamed. A look now

:15:05. > :15:07.at what else has been happening across the country this Monday. An

:15:07. > :15:10.independent inquiry has identified a host of failings in Dumfries and

:15:10. > :15:13.Galloway Council's handling of a project to develop a residential

:15:13. > :15:16.child care unit in Cairnryan. The findings reveal that officials made

:15:16. > :15:19.an offer for the property before local councillors were told of the

:15:19. > :15:22.plans and the public consultation process was found to be flawed. The

:15:22. > :15:24.man who died after a house fire in Troon yesterday has been named as

:15:24. > :15:28.49-year-old Thomas Mill. Investigations are continuing into

:15:28. > :15:31.the cause of the blaze in the town's Bentinck Drive. The Marine

:15:31. > :15:35.Harvest comany is planning to construct new fish farms off the

:15:35. > :15:38.Isles of Muck, Coll and Colonsay. The new developments would be in

:15:38. > :15:42.more exposed areas than the traditional sea lochs used by the

:15:42. > :15:45.industry and are said to be more environmentally friendly. A group

:15:45. > :15:48.of crofters is launching a bid to stop an uninhabited island in the

:15:49. > :15:53.Outer Hebrides from being handed to the National Trust for Scotland.

:15:53. > :15:56.Little Bernera is adjacent to Great Bernera. The crofters want to own

:15:56. > :16:02.both islands and will try to use right-to-buy legislation to block

:16:02. > :16:05.Little Bernera's transfer. Police are hunting tobacco thieves who're

:16:05. > :16:08.suspected of up 50 shop raids across south and central Scotland.

:16:08. > :16:18.In recent weeks they've targeted stores in Dumfries and Galloway,

:16:18. > :16:18.

:16:18. > :16:26.including last night in Castle Douglas. Police believe the men

:16:26. > :16:32.speak with north-east of England accents. The before the raid they

:16:32. > :16:38.break -- but into at nearby bed- and-breakfast. The case the place

:16:38. > :16:41.and when the break-in the always steal cigarettes, they are prolific.

:16:41. > :16:44.The Maybole bypass on the A77 in south Ayrshire took a step forward

:16:44. > :16:46.today when the invititation to carry out ground investigation

:16:46. > :16:49.works was published. The bypass will separate local traffic from

:16:49. > :16:52.vehicles going to the Loch Ryan ports and further afield and it's

:16:52. > :16:56.hoped will lead to safer roads. And there are more stories from your

:16:56. > :17:05.area and all the latest news, 24 hours a day on BBC Scotland's

:17:05. > :17:08.website. Let's turn to sport now and Dougie has the latest. The

:17:08. > :17:12.Celtic manager Neil Lennon says the proposed sale of Ki Sung Yung will

:17:12. > :17:15.be good business for the club. Swansea City have had a bid of

:17:15. > :17:19.almost �6 million accepted for the South Korean, who has made it clear

:17:19. > :17:22.he wants to leave. But Lennon isn't sure whether he'll get any of the

:17:22. > :17:32.funds from the deal to reinvest in his squad, as Alasdair Lamont

:17:32. > :17:33.

:17:33. > :17:43.reports. The Celtic squad has some big players back from injury but

:17:43. > :17:52.

:17:52. > :17:58.one man not joining them is Ki Sung Yung. The South Korean helped his

:17:58. > :18:03.country to an Olympic medal this summer but after time off to get

:18:03. > :18:08.over those exertions he feels it is time for a new challenge. We feel

:18:08. > :18:14.it is good business on our side. It is unfortunate, he is a talented

:18:14. > :18:23.player, but it has been our strategy for the last two or three

:18:23. > :18:29.years to cultivate these players and move them on if they want to go.

:18:29. > :18:35.Neil Lennon is not sure he will be allowed to use be money to

:18:35. > :18:42.strengthen his squad. Most clubs have got to strengthen -- service

:18:42. > :18:46.their debt. I do not think Celtic have any challenge at all already.

:18:46. > :18:52.Going into the Champions' League it would be important to bring in a

:18:52. > :18:56.new face. Lennon will have to go with what he has got for the

:18:57. > :19:01.Champions' League qualifiers. Reaching the group stage might help

:19:01. > :19:04.loosen the purse strings. Henrik Larsson has admitted he's in a

:19:04. > :19:06.dilemma and doesn't know which team to support in the Champions League

:19:06. > :19:09.encounter. The striker, who became known as the Magnificent Seven,

:19:09. > :19:16.during his hugely successful time at Parkhead, started and finished

:19:16. > :19:24.his senior football career in his home town, Helsingborg. There is

:19:24. > :19:30.some flash photography in this club. There are two teams which made it

:19:30. > :19:40.possible for me. Elsing board gave me the opportunity to come out and

:19:40. > :19:42.

:19:42. > :19:46.play in Europe. Celtic made my name. It is a difficult one for me --

:19:46. > :19:48.Helsingborg. Ipswich have made an offer for Rangers' Maurice Edu. The

:19:48. > :19:51.American midfielder has not featured this season after

:19:51. > :19:54.indicating he wants to leave Ibrox. Tomorrow night, the rest of the

:19:54. > :19:57.Rangers squad will be in Falkirk to face the first division favourites

:19:57. > :20:07.in the Ramsden's Cup - where they'll be wanting to get off to a

:20:07. > :20:14.better start than they did at the weekend. An expectant crowd, and

:20:14. > :20:19.then this. He has taken it beautifully! The opener was a bit

:20:19. > :20:26.of a surprise. I was shocked and I was looking for the hyperspace

:20:26. > :20:31.button to get us out of there. The boys have to defend better, that is

:20:31. > :20:37.what I was telling them, but then to look up and see as a goal down

:20:37. > :20:42.was a bit concerning. Last year Rangers were knocked out of the

:20:42. > :20:49.League Cup by Falkirk. This time round things have changed for both

:20:49. > :20:53.sides. Several more players will be joining the club over the next

:20:53. > :20:56.couple of weeks. When you consider the age of our group and the

:20:56. > :21:05.experienced players we have lost I think it would be an incredible

:21:05. > :21:12.achievement if we were to win on Tuesday night. The Experience they

:21:12. > :21:17.have from the past could be helpful. Maybe the shock to the system of

:21:17. > :21:23.the reaction we get from opposition players and fans in terms of the

:21:23. > :21:32.intensity when we go to these games, we are often unexpected for the

:21:32. > :21:35.intensity of it. He hopes to take the cup from Steven Presley's grasp.

:21:35. > :21:37.Both Dundee and Dundee United have confirmed they will appeal the red

:21:37. > :21:40.cards shown to their players during yesterday's Dundee derby. United's

:21:40. > :21:43.Johnny Russell and Dundee's Steven O'Donnell were both shown straight

:21:43. > :21:53.red cards for this incident. The home side, Dundee United won the

:21:53. > :21:57.

:21:57. > :22:03.match 3-0. The Cuban Paralympic team are in Glasgow preparing. It

:22:03. > :22:10.is their final preparation before heading south. The Zambian squad

:22:10. > :22:13.also made use of the Glasgow venue before taking part in the Games.

:22:13. > :22:18.Iraq is synonymous with many things but perhaps not with a national

:22:18. > :22:22.youth orchestra. Well, there is one, and it was set up four years ago by

:22:22. > :22:25.a teenage musician who now lives in Scotland. She recruited via YouTube

:22:25. > :22:35.and the orchestra will soon take to the stage for a series of Scottish

:22:35. > :22:39.

:22:39. > :22:46.concerts. Our arts correspondent Pauline McLean reports. The sound

:22:46. > :22:51.of one of the world's newest orchestras bus-stop this girl was

:22:51. > :23:01.just 17, the musician was living in Baghdad when she felt music was

:23:01. > :23:07.what her people needed. We had to show a positive side of Iraq. It

:23:07. > :23:14.sounded like a logical idea but it look -- took a lot of work.

:23:14. > :23:22.least because music tuition post war is limited. Most teachers had

:23:23. > :23:32.fled and playing music was not encouraged. It was not acceptable,

:23:33. > :23:33.

:23:33. > :23:42.especially for a girl. Hopefully it is getting better. They found

:23:42. > :23:46.support for the project in this girl's new adopted home of Scotland.

:23:46. > :23:52.Language has been the biggest obstacle but music is helping them

:23:52. > :23:58.overcome that. As well as presenting a positive image of a

:23:58. > :24:04.country that has been little understood. We're trying to bring

:24:04. > :24:10.people over to us and on to our side. Playing music from different

:24:10. > :24:15.cultures shows we can live together in harmony and peace. This week

:24:15. > :24:23.they have a new milestone, performing concerts in Edinburgh,

:24:31. > :24:37.surprise and delight us all. Nothing to surprise and delight

:24:37. > :24:41.with the weather I am afraid, unless you like showers! Doody has

:24:41. > :24:47.been a tale of two hats. Some showers and in the sunshine

:24:47. > :24:54.actually feeling a bit like summer. In the last hour or so some pretty
