:00:21. > :00:27.celebrating our Olympic and Paralympic heroes, with a parade

:00:27. > :00:30.through the country's biggest city. Thousands of people have been

:00:30. > :00:33.lining the streets of Glasgow to welcome them home. While the

:00:33. > :00:42.athletes themselves say it's given them the chance to say thanks to

:00:42. > :00:52.the fans for their support. I'll be speaking to Britain's greatest

:00:52. > :00:53.

:00:53. > :00:57.Olympian. What a spectacular way to end an

:00:57. > :01:02.amazing summer of sport. The cheering behind me, you can hear,

:01:02. > :01:12.is because it so chris foy has walked onto the stage to talk to

:01:12. > :01:18.

:01:18. > :01:25.you. -- Sir Chris Hoy. These people were shouting for our athletes to

:01:25. > :01:30.win. The parade went all the way through Glasgow.

:01:30. > :01:33.Individually, their success spanned the spectrum of London 2012.

:01:34. > :01:39.Together, the most successful group of athletes Scotland has ever

:01:39. > :01:45.produced. Today's homecoming is a day to celebrate their achievements,

:01:45. > :01:55.were 47 Scottish athletes will be paraded through the streets of

:01:55. > :01:56.

:01:56. > :02:01.Glasgow on two floats. Among them, the rower who kick-started the

:02:01. > :02:07.medal rush. The whole nation was behind us. It was incredible.

:02:08. > :02:17.chance to celebrate in front of your Scottish fans. To it is lovely

:02:17. > :02:22.to since Eric -- to bag everyone who supported me. On board these

:02:22. > :02:27.two votes are 19 of the 24 medals won by the Scottish athletes.

:02:27. > :02:32.Earlier this week, they had a chance to go to London. Today, it

:02:32. > :02:36.is the turn of Scottish fans to say thank you. It has been a wonderful

:02:36. > :02:46.event for the whole of Britain, to see all the Scots who have done so

:02:46. > :02:52.well. Super. I saw the people wanted to sue. In it was brilliant!

:02:52. > :02:56.We saw Chris Hoy, we shouted at him, he turned around. The star

:02:56. > :03:01.attraction was Scotland's greatest Olympian. Fantastic, so many people

:03:01. > :03:08.out, celebrating the achievements of both teams. Our chance to back

:03:09. > :03:14.the public for their support. All the more special back in Scotland.

:03:14. > :03:21.After a truly nationwide Games. mere 20 minutes into the journey,

:03:21. > :03:26.travelling along Sauchiehall Street. What does it mean to be here today?

:03:27. > :03:32.This is fantastic. The people who have come out to cheer us on, it

:03:32. > :03:39.makes it worthwhile. As the parade ended the city centre, the crowds

:03:39. > :03:49.got bigger. The volume increased. An appreciation of a life-changing

:03:49. > :03:50.

:03:50. > :03:56.event. Until this event, it would have been ludicrous, this kind of

:03:56. > :04:04.representation. Finally, it was time for the athletes to disembark

:04:04. > :04:07.and take a bow. Another chapter written in an extraordinary summer.

:04:07. > :04:13.Enjoying the enthusiasm of the crowds was Britain's must

:04:13. > :04:19.successful Olympian, Sir Chris Hoy, who joins me now.

:04:19. > :04:27.Thank you very much. How do you rate your welcome on home soil?

:04:27. > :04:31.is unbelievable, incredible. Such passion, and energy, from the crowd,

:04:31. > :04:37.they are unbelievable. None of the athletes thought it would be this

:04:38. > :04:44.scale, people have been queuing for hours. It is our chance to thank

:04:44. > :04:49.them for their support. It is easy to forget that life for athletes is

:04:49. > :04:56.generally a lot of hard, hard work. The last few weeks must have seemed

:04:56. > :05:01.so real? Yes, very true. We live a basic lifestyle of training,

:05:01. > :05:06.sleeping and eating, you repeat that again and again. After the

:05:06. > :05:11.Olympics and Paralympics, you have these incredible moments. Today is

:05:11. > :05:17.a day I will remember for the rest of my life. It is like being Tom

:05:17. > :05:23.Daley! You were in the city which will host the Commonwealth Games in

:05:23. > :05:28.2014. Not many people have competed in a Velodrome named after them,

:05:28. > :05:32.are you going to do it? I hope so. I will be competing in smaller

:05:32. > :05:39.events leading up to the Commonwealth Games. Ideally, I will

:05:39. > :05:44.be there to compete. To be in an Olympic Games on your home soil,

:05:44. > :05:49.and Commonwealth Games on your home soil, would be a dream end to my

:05:49. > :05:55.career. There are talented young Scottish athletes coming through. I

:05:55. > :06:01.will have a few months taking its steady, then decide. You are an

:06:01. > :06:06.ambassador for 2014, what are your best hopes? I hope that the

:06:06. > :06:12.enthusiasm and passion today will carry through. If it does, we are

:06:12. > :06:19.in for a Games to remember. Just incredible, so much support and

:06:19. > :06:24.enthusiasm for sport. The game Dunne -- Games in London will be a

:06:24. > :06:28.springboard. This has been the first chance for

:06:28. > :06:31.Scots fans to show their support for the men and women who made it a

:06:31. > :06:41.sporting summer to remember. Laura Bicker joined some of them lining

:06:41. > :06:42.

:06:42. > :06:47.the parade route. The crowd noise is incredible,

:06:47. > :06:53.these people have been here all afternoon to catch a glimpse of

:06:53. > :07:02.Chris Hoy and his medal. Jamie, you have been here since 2pm, what is

:07:02. > :07:08.it like to see him? Brilliant, fantastic. Absolutely brilliant.

:07:08. > :07:14.What an amazing thing to inspire the younger generation. To see all

:07:14. > :07:18.the people and the medals which had been one in these Olympics.

:07:18. > :07:23.woman has been smiling at me since I have been on stage. What a

:07:23. > :07:28.wonderful afternoon you have had. We are so proud of all the British

:07:28. > :07:33.athletes, it has been an amazing fortnight, an amazing day to day,

:07:33. > :07:38.we are proud of everybody. noise level when Chris Hoy came

:07:39. > :07:43.onto the stage was incredible. was fantastic, we are so proud, it

:07:43. > :07:49.has been a fantastic day. When you were sitting in your armchair,

:07:49. > :07:54.shouted for these people... Did you do you would see them on stage?

:07:54. > :07:58.did not, but I am so happy I'm here today, it has been a wonderful day.

:07:58. > :08:05.You are not the only person who has had a wonderful day, you have all

:08:05. > :08:11.enjoyed it, haven't you? We reckon around 10,000 people packed the

:08:11. > :08:18.streets, Bernd George Square, to catch a glimpse of a medallist. One

:08:18. > :08:27.of the loudest cheers was for Katherine Grainger. To see someone

:08:27. > :08:30.who has tried and tried again. Joining us now from the

:08:30. > :08:34.celebrations in George Square is the man who became first Scottish

:08:34. > :08:37.Paralympian to win gold in London, and who set a world record into the

:08:37. > :08:47.bargain, track cyclist in the tandem blind and visually impaired

:08:47. > :08:52.one kilometre time trial, Neil Fachie.

:08:52. > :08:58.Things are a little bit chaotic in George Square. The athletes are

:08:58. > :09:04.going to a special reception in the fruit market. We hope to join Neil

:09:04. > :09:07.Fachie soon. But we have someone else for you.

:09:07. > :09:10.A word about a special programme starting just after 7pm this

:09:10. > :09:14.evening, over on BBC Two. We're going to continue our coverage

:09:14. > :09:17.there, and chat to more of our athletes. We're also going to look

:09:17. > :09:20.ahead to the Commonwealth Games, and the impact of this summer's

:09:20. > :09:23.sporting legacy on Scotland as a whole. Taking part is Judy Murray,

:09:23. > :09:26.who joins us fleetingly. Andy couldn't make it today,

:09:26. > :09:36.understandably, but he knows the benefits of that sort of support

:09:36. > :09:39.

:09:39. > :09:43.we've seen from the crowds. Yes, absolutely, the support during

:09:43. > :09:50.the Olympics and prohibits from the British people, and for our

:09:50. > :09:54.Scottish athletes, has been phenomenal. For us, it is a huge

:09:54. > :10:00.opportunity to capitalise on that and get more people involved in

:10:00. > :10:05.sport. Building on that legacy is something close to your heart. We

:10:05. > :10:11.see all those youngsters behind you. I am up the tennis club where it

:10:11. > :10:15.all started for us. The courts have been mobbed pretty much all summer.

:10:15. > :10:18.We will be speaking to later, at 7pm.

:10:19. > :10:22.Still to come on your national new: A full round-up of today's news

:10:22. > :10:25.from across the country. In sport, the Olympic parade

:10:25. > :10:32.celebrations continue, and I'll be chatting with one of the Scots

:10:32. > :10:36.medallists in Team GB, Luke Patience. Luke Patience, with a

:10:36. > :10:42.silver medal in sailing. Stay tuned for all the sports news, coming

:10:42. > :10:45.soon. Now in other news today: It looks

:10:45. > :10:48.increasingly likely that 1,700 jobs will be lost at the Halls meat

:10:48. > :10:51.factory in West Lothian. The plant's owners, Vion, rejected a

:10:51. > :10:55.Scottish government offer to buy the factory, and lease it back to

:10:55. > :11:04.them, saying it would only delay its closure, not prevent it. Our

:11:04. > :11:08.political correspondent, Raymond Buchanan has the story.

:11:08. > :11:12.The tax payer takeover of the factory was an attempt to save jobs

:11:12. > :11:17.and the local economy. Workers have known for months this place might

:11:17. > :11:23.close. With time running out, ministers offered to bring the site

:11:23. > :11:27.into temporary public ownership. Lease it back to Vion, in a

:11:27. > :11:33.partnership to create a long-term future for the plant. I am

:11:33. > :11:37.disappointed the company has not accepted the offer. Vion thanked

:11:37. > :11:47.the government for the offer but said it would only have postponed

:11:47. > :11:57.

:11:57. > :12:03.For the 1,700 strong work force, depressing news. Margaret is a

:12:03. > :12:09.mother of four, 14 years of service, little hope of a future. I think

:12:09. > :12:16.they will just close the gates and say, that is it. What will it mean

:12:16. > :12:24.for Broxburn? A lot of folks off from Broxburn. A big employer in an

:12:24. > :12:28.area with few big employers left. In the town, they are worried.

:12:28. > :12:33.the VAT chigoes, a lot of other places will start closing down.

:12:33. > :12:40.There's no money, small businesses especially, but not got the money

:12:40. > :12:44.to keep going. The last major factory, it will be devastating.

:12:44. > :12:49.are told there are two bidders for the factory who will be offered the

:12:49. > :12:52.same deal Vion rejected. There are only three weeks left on

:12:52. > :12:57.consultation on whether to close the factory. Time is running out

:12:57. > :13:03.and the prospect for this place and the 1,700 people who depend on it

:13:03. > :13:05.for their livelihood look The news editor of the Scottish Sun

:13:05. > :13:09.has been reported to the procurator fiscal over alleged data protection

:13:09. > :13:11.breaches. Jill Smith was reported by officers from Operation Rubicon,

:13:11. > :13:15.the ongoing investigation into allegations of perjury and phone

:13:15. > :13:18.hacking in Scotland. The 40-year- old was reported on Monday "in

:13:19. > :13:20.relation to obtaining personal data of members of the public". She is

:13:21. > :13:27.the fourth senior News International figure to be

:13:27. > :13:30.questioned by Operation Rubicon Police have warned organised crime

:13:30. > :13:34.could be infiltrating credit unions, which are seen as an accessible,

:13:34. > :13:43.ethical alternative to banks. It's feared they could exploit weaker

:13:43. > :13:46.security measures to launder money. The warning comes as the government

:13:46. > :13:50.has announced �38 million to help the credit union movement expand.

:13:50. > :13:54.Our Home Affairs Correspondent, Reevel Alderson reports.

:13:54. > :13:59.Up in tough economic times, more people are turning to credit unions

:13:59. > :14:05.as a way of getting loans. The movement has been growing and there

:14:05. > :14:09.are 109 unions in Scotland with 280,000 members. They hold �210

:14:09. > :14:13.million in savings and the vast majority is out on loan. There is

:14:13. > :14:17.likely to be a further expansion with the Government announcing �38

:14:17. > :14:22.million of extra funding for the movement. But while they are seen

:14:22. > :14:24.as an accessible, affordable and ethical alternative to pay-day

:14:24. > :14:29.loans and high street banks, police are concerned they could be

:14:29. > :14:34.infiltrated by organised crime. They can Lauder money in credit

:14:34. > :14:39.unions. It is the same as with banks. Unfortunately credit unions

:14:39. > :14:43.don't have the income structure behind them like banks do. So

:14:43. > :14:46.recognising organised crime, we have to be suspicion with what

:14:46. > :14:50.happens and reporting that is important. At the moment police

:14:50. > :14:53.stress it is just a threat but credit unions say it is vital that

:14:54. > :14:58.the financial systems can cope. Credit unions are fully regulated

:14:58. > :15:02.by the FSA as it stands, so we are looking to enhance the ability of

:15:02. > :15:06.credit unions to spot any suspicious activity happening as

:15:06. > :15:09.the Union grows as a competitor, hopefully in the long term, to the

:15:09. > :15:12.banks. The credit unions insist they are not a soft touch and will

:15:12. > :15:18.have a full range of fraud prevention measures to combat

:15:18. > :15:21.Former residents of the last big orphanage to close in Scotland will

:15:21. > :15:25.meet up again when they gather for a reunion this weekend. The

:15:25. > :15:27.Aberlour Orphanage on Speyside was at one time home to as many as 500

:15:27. > :15:30.children until it closed in 1967. And while its Victorian exterior

:15:30. > :15:40.may have been forbidding, some retain happy memories of their time

:15:40. > :15:42.

:15:42. > :15:47.Hipped be his children are being brought up without parents' --

:15:47. > :15:50.these children. This 1960s film showed a stark image of an

:15:50. > :15:55.institution founded a century before to provide a refuge for

:15:55. > :15:58.motherless children. It had its own farm, laundry and cobbler and the

:15:58. > :16:03.regime was strict, but based on a principle unusual for Victorian

:16:03. > :16:07.times, that all children regardless of origin have the right to grow

:16:07. > :16:11.and flourish in society. Yes, there was disciplined force of the kids

:16:11. > :16:15.and there was the strap and things like that, but that was all part of

:16:16. > :16:19.growing up in the 50s for any child in a situation. Most of the inmates,

:16:19. > :16:23.and that is what they were called, were not actual orphans but were

:16:23. > :16:27.taken into care for a variety of reasons. This weekend former

:16:27. > :16:33.residents will return for a reunion as the village celebrates its

:16:33. > :16:37.bicentenary. This is me standing here, at the back. The hero was, as

:16:37. > :16:41.a youngster, but I was being fed regularly and I had clean clothes

:16:41. > :16:46.and had a regular bath. People were keeping the active and doing things

:16:46. > :16:51.and I remember enjoying it. Among his many other projects, it now

:16:51. > :16:56.runs a respite centre in Elgin. Lynn Mackenzie says it is vital in

:16:56. > :17:00.helping her care for her disabled son Jack. They offer you overnight

:17:00. > :17:03.and day care during the holidays. You can get a rest. Sometimes you

:17:03. > :17:08.can spend it with your other children or just go home and

:17:08. > :17:10.collapse, which I often do. methods of dealing with children's

:17:10. > :17:20.individual and social problems may have changed the the issues

:17:20. > :17:21.

:17:21. > :17:25.Let's go back to George Square, and there is the man who became the

:17:25. > :17:30.first Scottish Paralympian to win gold in London and to set a world

:17:30. > :17:34.record into the bargain, it is the track cyclist in the one kilometre

:17:34. > :17:39.race, Neil Fachie. Thanks for joining us. I know things are

:17:39. > :17:45.chaotic. But what have the last few weeks been like? Pretty chaotic

:17:45. > :17:49.themselves? Yes, it has been pretty special. I cannot get over the

:17:49. > :17:52.support we had in London and here today. It has been phenomenal.

:17:52. > :17:59.Winning a gold medal and breaking a world record in the Velodrome, the

:17:59. > :18:03.atmosphere was amazing. Just the greatest moment of my life. Now

:18:03. > :18:08.everyone is enjoying is with us and it is phenomenal. If everyone is

:18:08. > :18:13.wondering why we can't show the race, we can't because weeks it

:18:13. > :18:17.can't for contractual reasons, but how often have you really have it?

:18:17. > :18:22.To be honest I don't remember that much of the race, except for the

:18:22. > :18:27.last lap when both of myself and my pilot, Barney Storey, we started

:18:28. > :18:33.diving in, and the crowd erupted. They have a big part to play in the

:18:33. > :18:37.record we break. We are looking forward to seeing you in Glasgow.

:18:37. > :18:41.He will be competing there now that the sports are integrated? Yes,

:18:41. > :18:45.luckily both of my events will be at the Commonwealth games. That

:18:45. > :18:49.will be my next big event. And a chance to draw on a Scottish jersey

:18:49. > :18:53.and stand on top of the podium again, that is what will drive me

:18:53. > :18:57.forward in the next two years. hope so too. Neil Fachie, thanks

:18:57. > :19:02.all been with us. A look now at what else has been happening across

:19:02. > :19:06.the country this Friday. The inquiry is under way into how a

:19:06. > :19:09.two-year-old girl was unable -- able to find a way out of a

:19:09. > :19:14.council-run nursery and onto a road in Edinburgh. The incident happened

:19:14. > :19:17.at the grant and children and family centre. As a report calling

:19:17. > :19:21.for fishing to be stopped to allow stocks to recover has been

:19:21. > :19:25.dismissed as total rubbish by industry leaders. The think tank,

:19:26. > :19:29.the New Economics Foundation, said it would mean no fishing for around

:19:29. > :19:33.nine years and after that skippers would generate massive profits. The

:19:33. > :19:37.Scottish Federation said the report had no understanding of the

:19:37. > :19:42.economic realities of the industry. The First Minister has opened one

:19:42. > :19:47.of Europe's biggest wind farms, the Clyde wind farm, covering an area

:19:47. > :19:52.of 47 square kilometres which straddles the M 74 motorway. It has

:19:52. > :19:57.152 turbines. The energy company claims it can produce enough energy

:19:57. > :20:03.during the year to meet the needs of more than 250,000 homes.

:20:03. > :20:08.Everything about this wind farm is huge. There are 152 turbines. They

:20:08. > :20:13.are spread over 47 square kilometres, straddling the ms 74

:20:13. > :20:20.motorway. But, incredibly, it is still not Scotland's biggest. The

:20:20. > :20:25.Whiteleas wind farm, south of Glasgow, retains that title. More

:20:25. > :20:29.than 5,500 Rams were auctioned today. The biggest sale of its kind

:20:29. > :20:33.in that world. Farmers come from all over Europe for the event and

:20:33. > :20:43.sales reach nearly �3 million. And there are more stories from your

:20:43. > :20:44.

:20:44. > :20:48.area and the latest news 24 hours a Rhona McLeod, who if I remember

:20:48. > :20:54.spend most of the summer hobnobbing with the sporting elite, is back in

:20:54. > :21:00.familiar territory. Exactly. From a hot and sunny London to weigh

:21:00. > :21:01.slightly cold Glasgow. But you would have to say there is warming

:21:01. > :21:04.afterglow around these Olympic athletes, still quite

:21:04. > :21:07.understandably basking in their success. A record-breaking 14 Scots

:21:07. > :21:14.medalled in London. And I'm happy to say we have an Olympic silver

:21:14. > :21:20.medallist in sailing, Luke Patience, here now. Describe what today has

:21:20. > :21:23.been like for you. To day has been amazing. We have the London Parade

:21:23. > :21:27.on Monday, and to come to Glasgow, I thought it would be smaller, but

:21:27. > :21:33.I was totally wrong. So many people out in force. It is cold, as you

:21:33. > :21:38.said, and it has been so welcoming. I am proud to be Scottish today.

:21:38. > :21:42.The Olympic games were your dream. Has your life changed as a result

:21:42. > :21:46.of this? It has changed forever. I have been dreaming about this

:21:46. > :21:49.moment for as long as I have been doing sport. To finally get the

:21:49. > :21:53.opportunity to stand on the podium and get an Olympic medal round my
