European election results. That's all from the BBC News at Six - so | :00:00. | 3:59:59 | |
it's goodbye from me and on Patients waiting for treatment - the | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
latest NHS figures show key targets After the art school blaze, a | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
a promise of millions of pounds of help from the | :00:10. | :00:13. | |

prepare for the friendly with Nigeria, police investigate | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
match-fixing claims. Good evening. The NHS has missed a | :00:45. | :01:00. | |
number of key targets to reduce the amount of time people | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
wait for treatment. New figures show more than one in | :01:05. | :01:06. | |
ten people are waiting too long to be seen and, in some areas | :01:07. | :01:10. | |
of Scotland, it is as many When Kenny Boyle got an appointment | :01:11. | :01:35. | |
to meet an orthopaedic surgeon, he thought his long wait for treatment | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
for a back problem went been solved, but he had been sent to a | :01:40. | :01:46. | |
specialist for the treatment, as opposed to meet his back. I have to | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
be belligerent. I may have to move to a part of the country which has | :01:51. | :01:57. | |
basic health management. He lives in Forth Valley, one of four areas | :01:58. | :02:02. | |
which have missed the targets for treatment. Statistics reveal other | :02:03. | :02:10. | |
problems. The 18 week target has been missed, the accident and | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
emergency target was not make either. But staff numbers have | :02:15. | :02:21. | |
risen. The health minister survived a vote of no confidence was keen to | :02:22. | :02:29. | |
point this out. That is the good news. We have recruited in the last | :02:30. | :02:37. | |
year over 1100 additional measures and 155 additional consultants for | :02:38. | :02:39. | |
the national health service in Scotland. It is all part and parcel | :02:40. | :02:49. | |
of the plan to make sure we can do what we can to improve the service | :02:50. | :02:55. | |
for our patients. Services will not improve, according to the Royal | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
College of nursing, because staffing levels are simply back to really | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
they were five years ago, while demand has increased. | :03:03. | :03:10. | |
And Eleanor joins me now in the studio. | :03:11. | :03:12. | |
To Mr target three years after you set it is embarrassing. I think some | :03:13. | :03:27. | |
of the pressures may also be having a knock-on effect. We also know that | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
the way hospitals measuring the waiting times is under closer | :03:34. | :03:40. | |
scrutiny. They therefore find it harder to meet the targets, but | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
there are solutions. You could centralise some of the expensive | :03:44. | :03:49. | |
bets, such as centralising accident and emergency ration on the | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
expensive drugs. Students who lost work as fire swept | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
through the Glasgow School of Art It should give them studio time to | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
develop new work and help rebuild their portfolio following the blaze | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
at the world-renowned building on Since the fire, there has been an | :04:06. | :04:19. | |
enormous effort to try and save the building. There is particular | :04:20. | :04:24. | |
concern for students preparing for the final degree show. There are | :04:25. | :04:29. | |
some fears that many may have lost the entire folio of work. My fourth | :04:30. | :04:40. | |
year, he has spent thousands of pounds. So much of him went into | :04:41. | :04:45. | |
this since his third year. Right at this point, it is not as if he will | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
make it again. What you need is done and now it is gone. It was rate | :04:51. | :04:59. | |
above where the fire started. There was one that that was fireproof, but | :05:00. | :05:07. | |
it was a small piece. I shall we actually finished the day before. We | :05:08. | :05:15. | |
had put the studio 58 and that is beside the studio they got | :05:16. | :05:18. | |
destroyed. Pictures show the devastation inside. The entire | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
studio was destroyed, but there are hopes that the vast majority of work | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
may have actually survived. This has been a devastating few days for | :05:30. | :05:35. | |
staff and students here. You can see items fell been retrieved from the | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
building, but some good news, especially with regard to whether | :05:40. | :05:45. | |
work has been badly affected, the school is launching special | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
bursaries. They will support the students. We have opportunities for | :05:49. | :05:55. | |
them to study elsewhere in Glasgow. There are other institutions in the | :05:56. | :06:01. | |
United Kingdom and Europe. There is an awful lot of detail to work out | :06:02. | :06:04. | |
and that is what we will be doing in the next couple of days. The boys | :06:05. | :06:11. | |
has Brighton offers of help from around the world. They say they will | :06:12. | :06:19. | |
look to match the bursary scheme, see the Scottish government. The | :06:20. | :06:23. | |
United Kingdom government have also said they will make a substantial | :06:24. | :06:31. | |
financial contribution. The bursaries will be named the | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
Phoenix, as the art school is already arising from the ashes. | :06:36. | :06:38. | |
Scotland's rural roads can be dangerous places for drivers and | :06:39. | :06:41. | |
there is a fresh warning about the number of young drivers involved in | :06:42. | :06:44. | |
17 to 19 year olds make up just 1.5% of drivers on our roads, but | :06:45. | :06:49. | |
according to new figures, nearly 12% of people hurt or killed in a car | :06:50. | :06:52. | |
accident are involved in a crash with those young drivers. | :06:53. | :06:55. | |
And in the Northern and Grampian areas of Scotland, that figure rises | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
Our reporter Morag Kinniburgh has been hearing about one scheme to try | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
and cut the numbers of young people involved in road accidents. | :07:03. | :07:14. | |
Crusty sets off on her advanced driving test, aware of the dangers | :07:15. | :07:21. | |
of being a teenage driver. It is a worry. There are people our age who | :07:22. | :07:30. | |
need to be made more aware of the dangers. Car crashes are the biggest | :07:31. | :07:36. | |
killer of young people in the developed world. Casualties are | :07:37. | :07:42. | |
highest in rural areas. Young drivers tend to drive for short | :07:43. | :07:47. | |
distances. They need to look much further ahead. They need to | :07:48. | :07:51. | |
understand what sort of road via Ron worthy of driving to that. And the | :07:52. | :08:00. | |
Borders, they have offered free driving courses for youngsters. You | :08:01. | :08:07. | |
take into consideration of what the weather is like, what the traffic is | :08:08. | :08:14. | |
like, if there are pedestrians about, lots of weird things to try | :08:15. | :08:19. | |
and do. Passing the test can mean lower insurance and lower fuel costs | :08:20. | :08:25. | |
and maybe even a better job. It is fabulous. It was brilliant. It was | :08:26. | :08:32. | |
nerve wracking, but it went smoothly and everything went to plan. If it | :08:33. | :08:38. | |
is going to make people safer, why not do it,. There are laws which may | :08:39. | :08:48. | |
restrict the amount of driving youngsters can do in the future. | :08:49. | :08:54. | |
Still to come on Reporting Scotland... | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
The wills of more than 30,000 Scottish soldiers who died | :08:59. | :09:00. | |

In sport, the latest news from the Scotland camp ahead of the match | :09:06. | :09:12. | |
against Nigeria. And a bruising encounter for Andy | :09:13. | :09:21. | |
Murray in the opening round of the French Open. | :09:22. | :09:25. | |
The price of sailing to almost every island off the west coast of | :09:26. | :09:29. | |
A Scottish government scheme offering lower fares has brought | :09:30. | :09:33. | |
By October 2015, it will be rolled out to all remaining crossings in | :09:34. | :09:38. | |
One place set to benefit is the Isle of Bute and our reporter Suzanne | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
Allan is at the ferry terminal in Wemyss Bay on the Clyde tonight. | :09:44. | :09:46. | |
Suzanne, it is a busy place for trips to Rothesay, but perhaps | :09:47. | :09:50. | |
It has actually been a really lovely afternoon here. It was mean and mean | :09:51. | :10:09. | |
for our small sail across the water. The scheme has been running in the | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
Western mails for the past 60 years. Travelling numbers are up by about | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
40% on fears are down by about the same. So, I wanted to see what | :10:19. | :10:24. | |
passengers, a 1000 day-trippers thought about the new cut-price | :10:25. | :10:29. | |
fares. They are happy, but wish it had happened a bit sooner. From | :10:30. | :10:36. | |
London to Mull and blogs to Cumbrae, by 2014, 14 favourites will benefit. | :10:37. | :10:45. | |
Passengers were deleted. It is good, but it should have come in before. | :10:46. | :10:50. | |
It will definitely help the trade on the A1. In the Western Isles, it has | :10:51. | :10:59. | |
seen fears cut by 40% in visitor numbers up by the same amount. Butte | :11:00. | :11:05. | |
tourism wants to see cheap fears soon. It is a very important thing | :11:06. | :11:11. | |
for the economy of Bute. We are disappointed we are not getting it | :11:12. | :11:16. | |
sooner. Palin are getting at this October and we would've liked to | :11:17. | :11:20. | |
have get that then, to be on the same playing field as Aaron. To see | :11:21. | :11:25. | |
that a land that a land at its best, you need to bring a car over and it | :11:26. | :11:31. | |
can be expensive. We do not know at the moment how much the fears are | :11:32. | :11:36. | |
going to be. The government say they have not set them and will do | :11:37. | :11:40. | |
neither of the time. But a you base it on what is happening in the | :11:41. | :11:45. | |
Western Isles, they should be a reduction of around 40%. I am | :11:46. | :11:48. | |
booking my vacation now. Scotland's largest council has | :11:49. | :11:50. | |
changed its infant cremation practices, following the baby ashes | :11:51. | :11:52. | |
scandal. Glasgow City Council apologised last | :11:53. | :11:54. | |
year for dispersing the remains of dead infants without their parents' | :11:55. | :11:57. | |
consent, after the practice came to light at Mortonhall Crematorium | :11:58. | :12:00. | |
in Edinburgh. The authority now says it will | :12:01. | :12:02. | |
return any ash left when parents The change comes after a critical | :12:03. | :12:05. | |
report into Mortonhall by former The death of a 43-year-old woman in | :12:06. | :12:08. | |
Renfrewshire is being treated as The woman, whose name has not been | :12:09. | :12:17. | |
released, was found seriously injured at a property in Ewing Road, | :12:18. | :12:21. | |
Lochwinnoch, shortly before midnight Emergency services attended, but she | :12:22. | :12:24. | |
was pronounced dead at the scene. It is understood that police are | :12:25. | :12:28. | |
following a definite line of The Scottish Football Association | :12:29. | :12:30. | |
have been contacted regarding a match-fixing threat surrounding | :12:31. | :12:39. | |
Scotland's friendly against Nigeria at tomorrow night. | :12:40. | :12:41. | |
We can cross to our sports news correspondent, Chris McLaughlin at | :12:42. | :12:44. | |
the BBC's Sport Centre in Salford. Is there any suggestion of any | :12:45. | :12:59. | |
Scottish involvement? We do not know a great deal at the moment. We know | :13:00. | :13:04. | |
that the Scottish claim -- the National crime agency have contacted | :13:05. | :13:08. | |
the Scottish football Association about a threat. It is understood a | :13:09. | :13:13. | |
number of other friendly matches taking place tomorrow have also been | :13:14. | :13:18. | |
highlighted. It is my understanding notes cottage players are not under | :13:19. | :13:22. | |
suspicion. They are not under suspicion. I talked to the Celtic | :13:23. | :13:32. | |
and Nigerian defender recently and said it was not a problem in his own | :13:33. | :13:39. | |
country. We have also tried to talk to see far, but they say there is no | :13:40. | :13:44. | |
specific investigation and bookmakers say the same. So, a cloud | :13:45. | :13:50. | |
over this friendly against Nigeria yes, but the match most definitely | :13:51. | :13:57. | |
about that in the sporting round-up. | :13:58. | :14:07. | |
The First Minister has insisted that Scotland is the best prepared nation | :14:08. | :14:10. | |
on the planet for the opportunities and challenges of independence. | :14:11. | :14:13. | |
Alex Salmond said Scotland had natural resources, | :14:14. | :14:15. | |
an ingenious people and an existing system of government. | :14:16. | :14:17. | |
But the Scottish Secretary Alistair Carmichael said Mr Salmond | :14:18. | :14:20. | |
This from our political editor Brian Taylor. | :14:21. | :14:23. | |
Nicola Sturgeon with her name six. Scotland's Cabinet has come to | :14:24. | :14:33. | |
Rutherglen near Glasgow to consult with people. Outside, fervent | :14:34. | :14:40. | |
supporters of the union preparer. Inside, ministers take questions on | :14:41. | :14:46. | |
welfare, pensions and the economy. The first minister insists Scotland | :14:47. | :14:49. | |
is best placed to adopt independence. We have a tremendous | :14:50. | :14:55. | |
natural lees or space and they history of governance. Since 1999 we | :14:56. | :15:01. | |
have been running the Scottish parliament so we have the | :15:02. | :15:05. | |
institutions of government, not just the legal system but also the | :15:06. | :15:10. | |
parliamentary system. I cannot think of any country which could come to | :15:11. | :15:14. | |
independence in better preparation than Scotland. Alex Salmond had | :15:15. | :15:19. | |
entered to a partial standing ovation. The first Minister | :15:20. | :15:25. | |
announced new funding for the football programme helping young | :15:26. | :15:30. | |
people but his critics say he has to give detailed answers on the cost of | :15:31. | :15:37. | |
independence. He has to, now with some hard and fast answers and he | :15:38. | :15:43. | |
has to be honest with the people of Scotland about the costs. We know | :15:44. | :15:46. | |
that setting up an independent nation will not be cheap. He has to | :15:47. | :15:53. | |
level with the people of Scotland. Tomorrow the Scottish and UK | :15:54. | :15:56. | |
governments will publish competing claims on the economics of | :15:57. | :16:00. | |
independence. Expect a range of responses. | :16:01. | :16:02. | |
A new current affairs programme starts tonight on BBC Two Scotland | :16:03. | :16:05. | |
at 10.30 - and at the helm is Sarah Smith. | :16:06. | :16:07. | |
Yes, Jackie. We've got an exciting show for you tonight. | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
We have an exclusive investigation into the security firm G4S | :16:13. | :16:15. | |
and how the failure of their vetting systems led to the murder of | :16:16. | :16:18. | |
After a series of scandals why are they still being | :16:19. | :16:23. | |
I'll be talking to the chief secretary to the | :16:24. | :16:26. | |
Treasury Danny Alexander about how much it would cost to set | :16:27. | :16:29. | |
The boffins at UK Treasury have added up all the costs associated | :16:30. | :16:34. | |
with creating a new state, but before they have even released | :16:35. | :16:37. | |
their figures they've been rubbished by the Scottish government who | :16:38. | :16:39. | |
And is Ian Rankin really the greatest writer in Scottish history? | :16:40. | :16:45. | |
That's all on Scotland 2014 at 10.30 on BBC Two tonight. | :16:46. | :16:52. | |
A look at other stories from the across the country. | :16:53. | :16:57. | |
Work has begun to install average speed cameras on the A9 | :16:58. | :17:00. | |
They're being installed to try to reduce the number of fatal | :17:01. | :17:04. | |
and serious accidents on the parts of the road that are | :17:05. | :17:07. | |
The system is expected to be in use by October. | :17:08. | :17:12. | |
The operator of a North Sea oil platform says it | :17:13. | :17:15. | |
hopes to have repaired a problem with one the installation's wells | :17:16. | :17:18. | |
CNR International has taken nearly a hundred workers off the Ninian | :17:19. | :17:22. | |
Central platform - after a problem was discovered with the well's outer | :17:23. | :17:26. | |
CNR says no oil has been released into the sea. | :17:27. | :17:34. | |
A primary school on one of Scotland's smallest inhabited | :17:35. | :17:36. | |
islands has reopened-after being closed for three years. | :17:37. | :17:39. | |
Highland Council has restarted classes on Canna, | :17:40. | :17:40. | |
a tiny isle off Skye, after two new families moved there. | :17:41. | :17:49. | |
The crime author Ian Rankin has been named ahead of | :17:50. | :17:52. | |
Robert Louis Stevenson and Arthur Conan Doyle as Scotland's | :17:53. | :17:54. | |
The Inspector Rebus creator topped a survey carried out to highlight | :17:55. | :17:59. | |
the National Young Writers' Award, which is aimed | :18:00. | :18:01. | |
Barr's, the makers of Irn Bru, say they've seen a sharp rise in sales | :18:02. | :18:12. | |
The Cumbernauld-based firm say total sales rose by over 5% - | :18:13. | :18:17. | |
that's more than twice as fast as the soft drinks market as a whole. | :18:18. | :18:21. | |
The company recently opened a factory in Milton Keynes, to | :18:22. | :18:23. | |
Let's get tonight's sports news now from Rhona. | :18:24. | :18:40. | |
Well, putting that potential match fixing threat you heard | :18:41. | :18:42. | |
about earlier to one side, Scotland manager Gordon Strachan says he has | :18:43. | :18:46. | |
a full squad to pick from ahead of tomorrow night's friendly | :18:47. | :18:49. | |
Strachan says it's important the national team continue | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
their winning form as they look for a fourth consecutive away victory | :18:54. | :18:56. | |
Scott Brown and his Scotland team-mates have one more working day | :18:57. | :19:07. | |
until the summer holiday begins. The ad in a leafy suburb preparing for | :19:08. | :19:11. | |
the match against Nigeria but the locals are not too excited by the | :19:12. | :19:16. | |
prospect. I met these tranquil surroundings, they are not here for | :19:17. | :19:21. | |
a rest and relaxation but to take care of some serious business before | :19:22. | :19:25. | |
the qualification campaign gets underway against Germany. I hope we | :19:26. | :19:32. | |
continue the form we have been doing, getting control and keeping | :19:33. | :19:37. | |
the ball instead of playing it up the park and hoping for the best. It | :19:38. | :19:43. | |
is a different side, more patient and creating chances. That is in no | :19:44. | :19:47. | |
small part down to the manager who has not allowed talk of a match | :19:48. | :19:51. | |
fixing is that is in no small part down to the manager who has not | :19:52. | :19:54. | |
allowed talk of a match fixing as he readies the squad for the chance at | :19:55. | :20:01. | |
Euro 2016. I am here and have been set a target to do that, and there | :20:02. | :20:05. | |
is nothing better than somebody setting you a target and you achieve | :20:06. | :20:09. | |
it. It has happened to me a couple of times in my life. I know what | :20:10. | :20:16. | |
this group of lads it can be achieved, that is for sure. The deal | :20:17. | :20:21. | |
test of what looks to be an improving Scotland side will come in | :20:22. | :20:25. | |
September but for now they are looking at a fourth successive win | :20:26. | :20:27. | |
away from home. There's good and there?s bad | :20:28. | :20:29. | |
news today for Andy Murray. The good news is he has survived | :20:30. | :20:32. | |
his first round match at the The bad news is, | :20:33. | :20:35. | |
the game-plan didn?t go quite The start of the year has at times | :20:36. | :20:38. | |
been shakey for Murray - today he had to overcome the world no 53 | :20:39. | :20:43. | |
Andrey Golubev from Kazakhstan. For Andy Murray, it is a welcome | :20:44. | :20:56. | |
return to Roland Garros after missing last year through injury but | :20:57. | :21:01. | |
it is the first time since 2011 but he goes into a grand slam without | :21:02. | :21:06. | |
Ivan Lendl in his corner. Andy Murray says he knows who he wants to | :21:07. | :21:10. | |
coach him and says he has talked but no clues as to who that is today. It | :21:11. | :21:17. | |
was a confident start from Andy Murray controlling Andrey Golubev | :21:18. | :21:24. | |
around the court. 6-1 in the first set. By the second, Andrey Golubev | :21:25. | :21:28. | |
had found his feet and it was much more even. Even so Andy Murray | :21:29. | :21:36. | |
claimed the set 6-4. Worryingly, Andrey Golubev Power gone into the | :21:37. | :21:46. | |
third set, 6-3. Another set required but it was dealt with swiftly. | :21:47. | :22:00. | |
800 metres runner Guy Learmonth may be based in England at one of the | :22:01. | :22:04. | |
UK's top sporting universities, but he says trips back home also play a | :22:05. | :22:07. | |
Learmonth has already been selected for Team Scotland at Glasgow 2014 | :22:08. | :22:12. | |
and says every Scottish athlete "wants to deliver" at these Games. | :22:13. | :22:15. | |
Our Games reporter Jane Lewis has more. | :22:16. | :22:22. | |
Guy Learmonth showed his sporting prowess from an early age. Growing | :22:23. | :22:32. | |
up, he excelled at rugby but at the age of 16, he won the Scottish | :22:33. | :22:40. | |
indoor title over 400 metres. I just realised if I could do that off | :22:41. | :22:44. | |
virtually no athletics training, who knows what I can do? I hung the | :22:45. | :22:55. | |
rugby boots up and went for it. The 22-year-old combines says athletics | :22:56. | :22:59. | |
career with studying in Loughborough but the odd trip home is a must and | :23:00. | :23:03. | |
last year when he was struggling with illness and injury it was key | :23:04. | :23:11. | |
to his selection for Glasgow 2014. I felt really weak and tired and | :23:12. | :23:15. | |
lethargic and thought I had to come home and be around my family and | :23:16. | :23:24. | |
train bound by the riverfront. A few weeks later I was better. Guy | :23:25. | :23:32. | |
Learmonth has already had a taste of running in front of a home crowd. | :23:33. | :23:38. | |
His mother admits watching him when in January was tough and it is | :23:39. | :23:40. | |
unlikely to get any easier this summer. I start with the nervous | :23:41. | :23:47. | |
cough and dumped told if I want to move a few seats away by my family. | :23:48. | :23:54. | |
I can shout a lot and they will try to contain that they get excited. | :23:55. | :23:59. | |
And who can blame her. That's it for tonight. | :24:00. | :24:00. | |
The last wills of more than 30,000 Scottish soldiers who died | :24:01. | :24:03. | |
in conflict are being published online as part of the centenary | :24:04. | :24:06. | |
The database includes the wishes of soldiers from the First | :24:07. | :24:10. | |
and Second World Wars, the Boer War and the Korean War. | :24:11. | :24:13. | |
Our reporter Aileen Clarke has been to see them. | :24:14. | :24:20. | |
Last wishes from the front. Just a few of the heartfelt and handwritten | :24:21. | :24:27. | |
notes from soldiers who put their country first. These were retrieved | :24:28. | :24:32. | |
from pay books on the bodies of soldiers who fell, the majority from | :24:33. | :24:38. | |
the battlefield. In this letter, Private Andrew McNulty was quite | :24:39. | :24:43. | |
specific about how his belongings were to be distributed. My cigarette | :24:44. | :24:53. | |
case to my nephew Charles. My watch chain to my cousin Joseph. My | :24:54. | :24:58. | |
fountain pen to my cousin jeremiad... He was killed in action | :24:59. | :25:08. | |
the following year. All units and regiments are represented so it is a | :25:09. | :25:14. | |
very direct and personal link. It is assumed that one of the men in this | :25:15. | :25:19. | |
photo is Private Thomas Walker from the King's Own Scottish Borderers. | :25:20. | :25:23. | |
On the back he has written a concise well. It is the smallest we have. | :25:24. | :25:34. | |
This is made out in favour of Mrs Brown in Dumfries. He was killed in | :25:35. | :25:39. | |
June that year. There are some from later warmth as well. Private Robert | :25:40. | :25:45. | |
Arnott was killed during the D-day landings and all his possessions | :25:46. | :25:48. | |
were left to his mother on the Isle of Arran. Many of the soldiers would | :25:49. | :25:55. | |
have surely hopes of young Private McNulty that they too would be | :25:56. | :26:00. | |
remembered. Ask my friends to think of me at my best and remember the | :26:01. | :26:08. | |
good of me and forget the bat. -- bad. | :26:09. | :26:10. | |
Thundery downpours today but this evening is derived foremost. You can | :26:11. | :26:26. | |
see the heavy showers and those should fade with some brightness are | :26:27. | :26:30. | |
owned to end the day. Overnight, showers Street, largely dry but | :26:31. | :26:36. | |
cloudy and the cloud thickening up with outbreaks of rain at times. Fog | :26:37. | :26:43. | |
in the hills to the east coast and consequently lower temperatures but | :26:44. | :26:46. | |
for most towns and cities around 10 Celsius. Tomorrow morning of the | :26:47. | :26:54. | |
better of a north-South split. Outbreaks of showery rain but | :26:55. | :26:57. | |
certainly around Perth, largely dry with the best of any brighter | :26:58. | :27:03. | |
weather on offer. By mid afternoon, it will not be raining all day but | :27:04. | :27:07. | |
be prepared for rain to come and go one across the South, temperatures | :27:08. | :27:14. | |
around 14 Celsius. Then the East Coast, quite chilly for Aberdeen, | :27:15. | :27:20. | |
Dundee, Edinburgh. The North West gets the best of any weather, | :27:21. | :27:28. | |
probably dry but cloudy. The rest of the afternoon into the evening, | :27:29. | :27:32. | |
being cloudy with patchy and damp conditions. Looking at the bigger | :27:33. | :27:37. | |
picture, the rain is all associated with an area of low pressure. That | :27:38. | :27:42. | |
is with us through the overnight period into Thursday morning. Still | :27:43. | :27:49. | |
they are to start the day but it improves because all the while it is | :27:50. | :27:54. | |
moving west and south with dry and bright whether starting to move | :27:55. | :27:59. | |
south. Temperatures, around 16 Celsius and feeling pleasant. The | :28:00. | :28:04. | |
good news and to Friday, high-pressure continuing to build, | :28:05. | :28:09. | |
largely dry and settled but always some lighter showers. We like Diane | :28:10. | :28:19. | |
settled. We are back with the headlines at 8pm but until then, | :28:20. | :28:22. | |
good evening. | :28:23. | :28:25. |
