BBC One we now join the BBC's news teams where you are. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
As military jets fly from RAF Lossiemouth to take part | :00:00. | :00:10. | |
in airstrikes in Syria, the First Minister questions the decision. | :00:11. | :00:19. | |
I remain deeply troubled by the decision of the UK Government to | :00:20. | :00:26. | |
take the country into conflict, with no strategy, no exit plan and | :00:27. | :00:30. | |
against the wishes of the overall -- overwhelming majority of | :00:31. | :00:31. | |

a picture of the life of Italian The First Minister told the | :00:49. | :00:51. | |
Scottish Parliament she was deeply troubled by the decision to take | :00:52. | :01:12. | |
military action in Syria. As fighter jets flew out of RAF | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
Lossiemouth to join the airstrikes against IS, Nicola Sturgeon said her | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
thoughts now were with the British Our Political Editor Brian Taylor | :01:19. | :01:23. | |
reports from Holyrood. At RAF Lossiemouth, they counted | :01:24. | :01:39. | |
them out, Typhoon jets, responding to Westminster's call. At RAF | :01:40. | :01:48. | |
Akrotiri, they counted them in again. From this Cyprus staging | :01:49. | :01:55. | |
post, onto targets in Syria. The byes to be right, 397. The nose to | :01:56. | :02:02. | |
the left, 323. The eyes have it. Unlock. By a large majority, MPs | :02:03. | :02:12. | |
said yes to Syrian air strikes. Today, the aftermath. The First | :02:13. | :02:15. | |
Minister praised the troops but protested at the decision. British | :02:16. | :02:21. | |
service personnel, many based at Lossiemouth, are now in action over | :02:22. | :02:25. | |
Syria. Notwithstanding my opposition, my thoughts and good | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
wishes are with them. However I remain deeply troubled by the | :02:31. | :02:33. | |
decision of the UK Government to take the country into conflict with | :02:34. | :02:37. | |
no strategy, no exit plan and against the wishes of the | :02:38. | :02:39. | |
overwhelming majority of Scotland's's MPs. Ill thought out | :02:40. | :02:46. | |
rushed to war. We are faced by fascists. The Scottish minister | :02:47. | :02:55. | |
maintained a balance on the issue. I did not support the air strikes, but | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
we must come together to support the brave men and women in our Armed | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
Forces. The Greens have tabled a motion condemning the incursion. It | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
may make matters worse, not better, but we know that Daesh wants to draw | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
us in, they want to make this a war between the west and Islam. They | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
propagate that lie and the UK should not be turning it into the truth. | :03:22. | :03:27. | |
Scottish Conservatives say that the air strikes are vital. Ever since | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
the vote last night, we have seen British service personnel strike at | :03:33. | :03:36. | |
the heart of the revenue stream of Daesh, reducing their ability to | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
bring terror to the west. This is a murderous caliphate which wants to | :03:41. | :03:44. | |
strike in countries around the world and it is right and necessary for us | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
to stand with our allies and reduce their capability. We have extended | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
our involvement in an enterprise and exercise in which we have already | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
been involved for almost two years. The conflict continues and tonight, | :03:58. | :04:01. | |
in Glasgow, so do the protests. Our defence correspondent Jonathan | :04:02. | :04:06. | |
Beale is at RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus. Jonathan, when can the planes that | :04:07. | :04:09. | |
arrived today expect to see action? What can we expect the Typhoon to | :04:10. | :04:22. | |
do? They will be in action pretty soon. They have been sent for a | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
reason. They could have, for example, performed the mission | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
carried out last night by those Tornados over Syria, because they | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
use the same bomb, the Paveway bomb. In other words, they could be used | :04:36. | :04:42. | |
to hit large, static objects, oil installations, in the example last | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
night. What they can't do, the Typhoon, is fire and Brimstone | :04:48. | :04:50. | |
missile, which is used against moving targets, like vehicles, | :04:51. | :04:55. | |
smaller targets as well, the Brimstone is used for precision air | :04:56. | :05:01. | |
strikes. The Paveway bomb is also laser-guided, with a much bigger | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
blast area. The other thing is the question of how long they will be | :05:06. | :05:11. | |
there. We have seen Tornado crews and planes rotated about every four | :05:12. | :05:15. | |
months so it is possible that these Typhoon from Lossiemouth will be | :05:16. | :05:18. | |
there for a round about that time, but they could also be back here | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
again because David Cameron is saying this operation will take a | :05:23. | :05:23. | |
considerable time. A double rapist who once slashed | :05:24. | :05:25. | |
serial killer Peter Tobin in prison has been jailed | :05:26. | :05:27. | |
for a minimum of nine years and Sean Moynihan was convicted | :05:28. | :05:30. | |
of raping an 18-year-old woman in He had previously been jailed | :05:31. | :05:36. | |
for raping another teenager. This was the scene as police | :05:37. | :05:54. | |
forensically searched the cycle path between Lynwood and Johnson after | :05:55. | :05:59. | |
the 18-year-old's woman terrifying ordeal. It was at about 2pm on the | :06:00. | :06:05. | |
2nd of October last year. The woman was walking along this path on her | :06:06. | :06:10. | |
own when Sean Moynihan grabbed her at knife-point from behind. She said | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
she had never met him before but he had told police he had met her | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
previously and that, when they bumped into each other on this path, | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
they had sex. It transpired that he had trawled through the woman's | :06:25. | :06:25. | |
Facebook had trawled through the woman's | :06:26. | :06:30. | |
about her so he could try and fool believes that what had happened had | :06:31. | :06:32. | |
been consensual. At the time of believes that what had happened had | :06:33. | :06:37. | |
attack, Sean Moynihan had not long been released from jail for raping a | :06:38. | :06:44. | |
16-year-old Dale in 2009. Moynihan was convicted of the latest rape | :06:45. | :06:45. | |
after was convicted of the latest rape | :06:46. | :06:51. | |
believed he planned it. I think he had the intention | :06:52. | :06:54. | |
believed he planned it. I think he sexual assault. We have | :06:55. | :06:58. | |
believed he planned it. I think he a knife. I have no doubt that | :06:59. | :07:04. | |
believed he planned it. I think he premeditated. Today at the High | :07:05. | :07:07. | |
Court, Moynihan was sentenced to a minimum of nine years in prison and | :07:08. | :07:11. | |
he was handed a lifelong restriction order so he may never be released. | :07:12. | :07:16. | |
The judge told him, you are what you are because you want to be. You can | :07:17. | :07:21. | |
change but, if you do not, you face spending the rest of your days | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
behind bars. Sean Moynihan attacked serial killer Peter Tobin earlier | :07:26. | :07:31. | |
this year while he was in jail. He said that Tobin and annoyed him and | :07:32. | :07:36. | |
Moynihan was sentenced to 32 months in prison for that. He's also | :07:37. | :07:40. | |
serving a six-month sentence attacking another prisoner. | :07:41. | :07:42. | |
You're watching Reporting Scotland from the BBC. | :07:43. | :07:44. | |
Still to come on tonight's programme: | :07:45. | :07:49. | |
The Scottish technology that scientists hope can test Einstein's | :07:50. | :07:52. | |
theory of relativity is launched into space. | :07:53. | :07:58. | |
Mark Warburton is staying at Rangers. | :07:59. | :08:01. | |
The operators of the Forth Road Bridge say it is likely | :08:02. | :08:16. | |
that traffic restrictions will continue for another few days. | :08:17. | :08:19. | |
They have also banned all goods vehicles weighing more | :08:20. | :08:21. | |
Steven Godden is at the bridge for us tonight. | :08:22. | :08:30. | |
Steven, pretty difficult day for drivers. | :08:31. | :08:38. | |
Yes, today was a day where drivers hoped things might get a bit easier | :08:39. | :08:45. | |
at the fourth road bridge -- Forth Road Bridge but if anything tonight | :08:46. | :08:49. | |
things are a bit more challenging. Over my shoulder, you can see that | :08:50. | :08:53. | |
the southbound carriageway remains closed for the second day, because | :08:54. | :08:56. | |
of a defect in the steelwork which was discovered on Tuesday. Drivers | :08:57. | :09:01. | |
are waiting to hear an update from the bridge operators about what | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
might happen but, officially, restrictions are in place until | :09:06. | :09:08. | |
further notice. The mood music around this is that there won't be a | :09:09. | :09:15. | |
speedy resolution. It is unlikely we will see restrictions lifted | :09:16. | :09:18. | |
tomorrow. It is more likely they will continue into next week. | :09:19. | :09:22. | |
By any measure, a miserable commute. For the second day, the Forth Road | :09:23. | :09:29. | |
Bridge down to one carriageway, tailbacks stretching for miles at | :09:30. | :09:34. | |
both ends. The afternoon brought a fresh restriction, a ban on HGVs | :09:35. | :09:39. | |
adding to disruption. Cars we are in the hands of specialists looking | :09:40. | :09:44. | |
after the bridge and they are giving us this information to keep the | :09:45. | :09:47. | |
bridge running. We have got to follow their advice. The morning | :09:48. | :09:52. | |
began with similar queues but a good deal more optimism. The return of | :09:53. | :10:00. | |
cyclists heralding a restriction cars a reduction in restrictions. | :10:01. | :10:07. | |
The repairs centre around the north tower of the fourth road bridge. -- | :10:08. | :10:13. | |
before the road bridge. Here, the generators and cables hint at the | :10:14. | :10:17. | |
work going on a few meters beneath my feet where a routine inspection | :10:18. | :10:21. | |
uncovered some faulty steelwork. Having carried out a more detailed | :10:22. | :10:26. | |
inspection, the road remained closed as the bridge operators weighed up | :10:27. | :10:32. | |
their options. In the short term, we are looking for temporary repairs | :10:33. | :10:35. | |
which will allow us to get traffic back on the bridge as quickly as | :10:36. | :10:39. | |
possible. Long-term, we will be probably replacing that component. | :10:40. | :10:44. | |
With safety paramount, tonight the traffic cameras are capturing only | :10:45. | :10:47. | |
congestion. While the engineers work out what to | :10:48. | :10:55. | |
do, the challenges keep coming. Tomorrow, the Met office are | :10:56. | :10:58. | |
predicting high winds that they think mean that the bridge will be | :10:59. | :11:04. | |
closed to everything except cars. Tonight, the advice remains as it | :11:05. | :11:08. | |
was last night. If you can, avoid a Forth Road Bridge. | :11:09. | :11:10. | |
The mother of a schoolboy who was murdered by a convicted sex offender | :11:11. | :11:13. | |
has renewed calls for an overhaul of how paedophiles are managed. | :11:14. | :11:17. | |
Margaret Ann Cummings from Glasgow has taken her campaign to Holyrood. | :11:18. | :11:19. | |
From there, here's our political correspondent, Glenn Campbell. | :11:20. | :11:29. | |
To keep children safe, Margaret Ann Cummings thinks Holyrood needs to | :11:30. | :11:38. | |
give the public a right to know where convicted sex offenders live. | :11:39. | :11:43. | |
How much does it mean to you to make this change happen? It means a lot. | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
It means that my son did not die for nothing. His life meant something, | :11:49. | :11:54. | |
because he had his human right is taken from him the day he was | :11:55. | :11:59. | |
murdered. Her son, Mark Cummings, was murdered 11 years ago in | :12:00. | :12:04. | |
Glasgow's Royston. His killer, Stuart Leggate, lived nearby without | :12:05. | :12:09. | |
the family knowing his criminal record. Margaret and has been | :12:10. | :12:16. | |
campaigning for a law in her son's memory ever since and her local MSP | :12:17. | :12:22. | |
says what has become known as Mark's law would be based on | :12:23. | :12:28. | |
Megan's law in America. If we can do it in the United States and other | :12:29. | :12:31. | |
parts of the world, why can't we look at that option in Scotland? In | :12:32. | :12:38. | |
Vermont, their website allows people to search for offenders living in | :12:39. | :12:43. | |
their community as long as they agreed not to use that information | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
to target those who have been convicted. Scotland's Tiger keeping | :12:48. | :12:52. | |
children safe scheme allows parents to keep. They can request | :12:53. | :13:01. | |
information and their work 23 disclosures last year. If we do not | :13:02. | :13:09. | |
take action... At Holyrood ministers want to avoid action which might | :13:10. | :13:11. | |
make it harder to keep track of offenders. We have to be careful we | :13:12. | :13:17. | |
don't push people underground. We need to know where people are. We | :13:18. | :13:23. | |
need to be able to monitor them. In Mark Cummings's name mum is | :13:24. | :13:27. | |
determined to keep pushing Hollywood to go further. | :13:28. | :13:29. | |
A look at other stories from across the country. | :13:30. | :13:31. | |
A woman has died after a fire in a ground floor flat in Edinburgh. | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
Firefighters were called to the property in Ferry Road just | :13:36. | :13:37. | |
The woman was taken away by ambulance | :13:38. | :13:42. | |
An investigation into the cause of the fire is under way. | :13:43. | :13:48. | |
Sir Ian Wood is to invest ?25 million | :13:49. | :13:51. | |
in a new economic development agency for the north-east. | :13:52. | :13:54. | |
Both Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire councils have backed the setting up | :13:55. | :13:58. | |
of "Opportunity North East" by one of Scotland's richest businessmen. | :13:59. | :14:02. | |
It will work on developing oil and gas, as well as food and drink, | :14:03. | :14:06. | |
Sir Ian says it's vital to diversify before the oil runs out. | :14:07. | :14:18. | |
I hate the thought of generations down the road quite rightly looking | :14:19. | :14:25. | |
back on my generation and saying, well, they did nicely themselves, | :14:26. | :14:30. | |
didn't they? Look what they left for us. Frankly, it is possible down the | :14:31. | :14:36. | |
road that generation will be leaving Aberdeen to try and find employment. | :14:37. | :14:38. | |
NHS Grampian has reported a big reduction in vacancies | :14:39. | :14:40. | |
It follows criticism of the number of unfilled posts. | :14:41. | :14:43. | |
More than 300 doctors, nurses, and other staff have been recruited | :14:44. | :14:46. | |
Consultant vacancies have fallen by nearly half, to 43. | :14:47. | :14:51. | |
A new test which it's hoped will increase | :14:52. | :14:55. | |
the early detection of bowel cancer is to be tried out across Tayside. | :14:56. | :14:58. | |
It's the third most common cancer in Scotland. | :14:59. | :15:01. | |
The new test will be available at every GP practice in the region. | :15:02. | :15:05. | |
Dundee University is to receive a ?10 million award to establish | :15:06. | :15:08. | |
a new research centre for forensic science. | :15:09. | :15:13. | |
The university already has a specialist centre, | :15:14. | :15:15. | |
which has developed techniques to identify victims | :15:16. | :15:17. | |
At 4 o'clock this morning this Vega rocket launched from | :15:18. | :15:26. | |
On board is the Lisa Pathfinder satellite - | :15:27. | :15:32. | |
a probe designed to search for ripples in space and time. | :15:33. | :15:35. | |
As our science correspondent Kenneth Macdonald reports, | :15:36. | :15:36. | |
the key technology has been developed in Scotland. | :15:37. | :15:47. | |
Somewhere in the far universe two massive black holes collide, sending | :15:48. | :15:57. | |
ripples through space and time. These are gravitational waves | :15:58. | :15:59. | |
predicted by Albert Einstein. The problem? We haven't found them yet. | :16:00. | :16:08. | |
We could see signals from structures the size of our galaxy colliding. | :16:09. | :16:13. | |
There can't be anything more dramatic. Now the Lisa Pathfinder | :16:14. | :16:26. | |
satellite is testing the technology that could find the waves. It has | :16:27. | :16:35. | |
been developed at Glasgow University with a machine so sensitive. We have | :16:36. | :16:41. | |
got two things that are floating in space and we are trying to measure | :16:42. | :16:47. | |
the distance between them and the way is to shine laser beams and they | :16:48. | :16:54. | |
act as a ruler, but a very fine ruler. It is a new way of looking at | :16:55. | :17:00. | |
the universe. Or it will be once we can detect the waves and I think | :17:01. | :17:08. | |
that will be the birth of a new type of astronomy. The next step will be | :17:09. | :17:19. | |
satellites linked by lasers that can detect gravitational waves from that | :17:20. | :17:23. | |
will be the ability to see further away in the universe than ever | :17:24. | :17:30. | |
before. Now the latest sport with David. Thank you. | :17:31. | :17:33. | |
The Rangers manager Mark Warburton has categorically denied he will be | :17:34. | :17:36. | |
leaving the club for English Championship side Fulham. | :17:37. | :17:38. | |
BBC Scotland has learned Rangers are aware of interest from London | :17:39. | :17:41. | |
and were concerned he may be tempted south. | :17:42. | :17:44. | |
But Warburton - who's lead his team to a three point lead | :17:45. | :17:47. | |
in the battle for promotion - says he's staying put. | :17:48. | :17:50. | |
The BBC continues to stand by its story that Fulham have made Rangers | :17:51. | :18:04. | |
aware of their interest in Mark Warburton, but the man in question | :18:05. | :18:08. | |
said it is not the case. Rangers are aware of interest from Fulham in | :18:09. | :18:12. | |
your services, have Rangers... They're not. Have Rangers spoke toen | :18:13. | :18:19. | |
to you. No, get the facts right, please. They're not aware of any | :18:20. | :18:24. | |
interest. There is no interest. You can say you will not be the next the | :18:25. | :18:30. | |
manager of Fulham? Absolutely. News of Fulham's interest first emerged | :18:31. | :18:36. | |
on Tuesday night. Before the game against Dunbarton. By last night the | :18:37. | :18:41. | |
BBC warned the Rangers board were aware of the interest and were | :18:42. | :18:46. | |
considering making more money available to Warburton in January. | :18:47. | :18:52. | |
He tokest spoke to us said he is here to stay and wants to see out | :18:53. | :18:56. | |
the project. He can't ask us to commit to coming here if we are not | :18:57. | :19:00. | |
going to do the same. Tonight a statement from Rangers who deny any | :19:01. | :19:02. | |
official approach. The BBC stands by its story and they | :19:03. | :19:20. | |
say that Fulham are the fifth club to have shown interest are you. Are | :19:21. | :19:26. | |
you saying that is is not collect. It is flattering, if you look at the | :19:27. | :19:31. | |
web-site, they can say ten new managers who might be good for club | :19:32. | :19:35. | |
X. It is just speculation. Thank you. Thanks very much. | :19:36. | :19:42. | |
at Tynecastle and that they plan to build a new main stand within | :19:43. | :19:45. | |
The plans were announced to shareholders this morning | :19:46. | :19:48. | |
as the club held it's Annual General Meeting. | :19:49. | :19:50. | |
Hearts own Anne Budge arriving, where 300 shareholders were waiting | :19:51. | :20:06. | |
to hear of the plans. One topic has been the future of the ground and | :20:07. | :20:09. | |
they were given the news that the decision had been take on the stay | :20:10. | :20:15. | |
at Tynecastle. It was a preference, largely driven by I think an | :20:16. | :20:21. | |
overwhelming desire, of the majority of supporters to stay at Tynecastle. | :20:22. | :20:27. | |
All positive, looking forward to 21,000 sell outs. It is a breath of | :20:28. | :20:32. | |
fresh air and for the first time in years your proud to be a fan. If you | :20:33. | :20:36. | |
have a new stand, she will make sure it is done within the budget. This | :20:37. | :20:42. | |
main stand is over a hundred years old, but its time has come accord | :20:43. | :20:47. | |
according to Ann Budge. A new one is planned. Funding a new stand does | :20:48. | :20:54. | |
not come cheap. With the cost likely Toby ly to be about ?5 million and | :20:55. | :21:01. | |
fans may have a role to play. If they know what they're doing is | :21:02. | :21:07. | |
helping to save Tynecastle, in the same way as the they saved the club, | :21:08. | :21:11. | |
then I'm confident they would stand behind it. When completed, the | :21:12. | :21:20. | |
stadium will have a capacity of at least 20,000 and if their on field | :21:21. | :21:24. | |
progress continues, demand for tickets will be high. | :21:25. | :21:26. | |
St Johnstone's manager Tommy Wright says he'll know | :21:27. | :21:28. | |
when the time is right for one of the prized assets to move on. | :21:29. | :21:32. | |
Michael O'Halloran has been attracting attention | :21:33. | :21:33. | |
of other clubs including Celtic recently, but Wright says | :21:34. | :21:35. | |
the Saints and don't need to sell him and don't want to either. | :21:36. | :21:41. | |
Is this the best forward player in Scotland? His manager thinks so. | :21:42. | :21:52. | |
Here's way. -- here's why. We played him in different positions, off a | :21:53. | :21:58. | |
front man and he his dribbling ability, his technique, he will run | :21:59. | :21:59. | |
at people. It is not just his pace. ability, his technique, he will run | :22:00. | :22:05. | |
He has a trick or two. He has got to keep Kerrest performing at the level | :22:06. | :22:10. | |
-- keep performing at the level he is at. The 24-year-old helped Saints | :22:11. | :22:16. | |
climb into the Premiership's top four and the League Cup semi-finals. | :22:17. | :22:21. | |
Catching the eye of other clubs in the process. I'm a St Johnstone | :22:22. | :22:28. | |
player and enjoying it. That is my focus to keep progressing and do the | :22:29. | :22:30. | |
best for the club. His focus to keep progressing and do the | :22:31. | :22:36. | |
says there will come a time when O'Halloran moves on. We will all | :22:37. | :22:41. | |
know when the time's right. But Michael's touched on it, he has to | :22:42. | :22:46. | |
condition Sen trait -- concentrate on playing well and whatever happens | :22:47. | :22:50. | |
will happen. We are not looking to sell him. We don't need to sell him. | :22:51. | :22:56. | |
Time for another close up, O'Halloran may or may not be the | :22:57. | :23:01. | |
best striker in Scotland, but definitely the country's Player of | :23:02. | :23:05. | |
the Month for November. So everyone's staying put, apart from | :23:06. | :23:06. | |
me. But back tomorrow. Bye. An archive | :23:07. | :23:10. | |
which paints a picture of Italian families in Scotland is to go | :23:11. | :23:12. | |
on display here for the first time. The details were gathered | :23:13. | :23:15. | |
in the 1930s by Italian embassies All were destroyed on the orders | :23:16. | :23:18. | |
of Mussolini with one known Our arts correspondent | :23:19. | :23:23. | |
Pauline McLean reports. There are many stories to be found | :23:24. | :23:28. | |
here in the national records Among them the story | :23:29. | :23:31. | |
of 1,400 Italian immigrants who moved here in the 1930s | :23:32. | :23:36. | |
and whose lives are documented It's a census filled in | :23:37. | :23:39. | |
by heads of households of Mussolini's Italian Government | :23:40. | :23:46. | |
and it was a worldwide census. But with war looming, | :23:47. | :23:54. | |
Mussolini worried it would fall He ordered | :23:55. | :23:57. | |
the archives be destroyed and most We think these records are probably | :23:58. | :24:02. | |
secreted away somewhere, it is not clear how they survived | :24:03. | :24:09. | |
but it's great that they have done and that we can enjoy them | :24:10. | :24:13. | |
for completely different reasons Because what they do is show | :24:14. | :24:16. | |
a complete picture of a generation of Italians who came in the 1930s, | :24:17. | :24:20. | |
but because they contained details of their parents and children, you | :24:21. | :24:24. | |
have a span of three generations He left Italy on 26th January | :24:25. | :24:27. | |
1920... Cesidio di Ciacca's grandfather came | :24:28. | :24:40. | |
to Scotland with his wife and children, three brothers | :24:41. | :24:42. | |
and two sisters. Today, the family is spread across | :24:43. | :24:46. | |
the country in all walks of life. Chasing the best they can do is part | :24:47. | :24:50. | |
of the culture and, strange as it may seem, many Scots abroad | :24:51. | :24:53. | |
did exactly the same thing Because | :24:54. | :24:59. | |
when you go to a new community, you want to try your best - not to | :25:00. | :25:03. | |
be better than anybody, but just to feel you're part of the community | :25:04. | :25:07. | |
and recognised in some way. Now the archive has been restored, | :25:08. | :25:15. | |
it will be returned to Italy, but not before this first public | :25:16. | :25:18. | |
exhibition. A vivid picture of the beginnings | :25:19. | :25:19. | |
of a whole new community. Now I am not sure if we are going to | :25:20. | :25:37. | |
like what we are going their. Hear but now the weather. A spell of | :25:38. | :25:45. | |
wintry weather tonight. This is the snowy scene in Biggar. We have seen | :25:46. | :25:51. | |
snow to lower levels in the Edinburgh area. This area of rain | :25:52. | :25:55. | |
and we have a Met Office warning in force. Snow on the hills and at | :25:56. | :26:03. | |
times to low levels. It is dragging in cold air from aloft. But it is | :26:04. | :26:10. | |
clears. A risk of ice tonight and more showers edging in from the | :26:11. | :26:15. | |
west. Temperatures close to freezing tonight. Tomorrow, and our concern | :26:16. | :26:22. | |
is with wind. We have a Met Office yellow be aware woorning from | :26:23. | :26:29. | |

gusts around the 70mph mark ferries and restrictions on bridges. | :26:51. | :26:54. | |
the north-west and the rain heavy and the rain and winds will continue | :26:55. | :26:56. | |
to spread across and the rain and winds will continue | :26:57. | :27:04. | |

70mph. Some disruption is likely to travel. Difficult conditions on the | :27:10. | :27:13. | |
roads come Friday night. So what about the weekend? Well on Saturday, | :27:14. | :27:18. | |
you can see we still have tightly packed isobars, so windy and another | :27:19. | :27:19. | |

their first air strikes against self-styled Islamic State | :27:44. | :27:45. | |
