:00:37. > :00:44.Could team Scotland provide one final golden moment on the last day

:00:45. > :00:48.of the Commonwealth games? After a thrilling victory in the badminton

:00:49. > :00:59.semifinals, Kirsty Gilmour had the chance to win the first ever singles

:01:00. > :01:11.title for Scotland. It was almost perfect. I gave so much yesterday.

:01:12. > :01:18.Mentally, I wasn't although today. I am not complaining. The squash

:01:19. > :01:25.doubles team were looking to add one more medal to Scotland was not

:01:26. > :01:43.tally, but England's team proved too strong. Cycling's Road race was hit

:01:44. > :01:50.by dreadful weather conditions. In David Miller's final Commonwealth

:01:51. > :01:57.games, he did well. There aren't Thomas overcome, puncture to one.

:01:58. > :01:59.Team Scotland have exceeded all expectations.

:02:00. > :02:02.So the spotlight is moving to Hampden Park tonight for the

:02:03. > :02:20.It is pretty nicely already. Last-minute sound checks are going

:02:21. > :02:28.on. We know there will be lots going on. Kylie Minogue will be here. It

:02:29. > :02:36.will be a very emotional handover. Looking back, these have been very

:02:37. > :02:42.successful. I think we will be talking about this for a long time.

:02:43. > :02:47.Thank you. Onto the news. Police Scotland have released

:02:48. > :02:50.the name of a teenager, who died after falling into a silo

:02:51. > :02:52.on a farm in the Borders on Friday. He was 19-year-old Zach Fox

:02:53. > :02:55.from Hawick. The defence contractor Babcock

:02:56. > :02:57.has told its Clyde-based workforce that independence

:02:58. > :02:58.could lead to job losses. The Scottish government, however,

:02:59. > :03:14.insists a "Yes" vote will protect Trident missiles maintained and

:03:15. > :03:21.stored at Killian Clarke. Nearby, Faslane, the Royal Navy submarine

:03:22. > :03:29.base. Babcock employs 1500 people across both bases. A leaked copy of

:03:30. > :03:48.notes from a meeting have been released. They say:

:03:49. > :03:56.Babcock's intervention is consistent with what has been said about the

:03:57. > :04:04.future of shipbuilding on the Clyde. If Scotland becomes independent, we

:04:05. > :04:09.cannot expect these kinds of contracts will be maintained. Not

:04:10. > :04:18.so, says the Scottish government. Under its plans, Faslane would be

:04:19. > :04:23.changed to a Scottish naval base and protect and create jobs. The use of

:04:24. > :04:26.Faslane would be different. We don't want to have nuclear weapon is

:04:27. > :04:38.continuing in Scotland, but Faslane would continue to feature in a

:04:39. > :04:44.strong Scotland. The defence industry supports thousands of jobs

:04:45. > :04:51.across Scotland. Defending those is a key independence issue.

:04:52. > :05:01.The forecast for tonight is all important.

:05:02. > :05:07.Good evening. Many places today having a fairly wet today. You can

:05:08. > :05:12.see these showers moving northwards, and some of these very

:05:13. > :05:17.heavy and persistent. If you are heading to the closing ceremony

:05:18. > :05:25.tonight, the last of the heaviest showers have moved away. There is

:05:26. > :05:32.always the chance of more showers. It is a dull and damp night. The

:05:33. > :05:40.heavy showers still in the North. Some mist and fog patches forming

:05:41. > :05:45.inland. Tomorrow, damp and breezy in the West to start.

:05:46. > :05:50.Until then, from everyone on the team here in Glasgow, enjoy

:05:51. > :06:14.Good evening. Some of us have had a sunny weekend but for others it has

:06:15. > :06:16.not stopped raining for the last couple of days, you can see where on
