:01:27. > :01:31.Our reporter Lisa Summers is at the bridge control centre
:01:32. > :01:46.It is getting very gusty here. But a huge amount of work has gone on here
:01:47. > :01:51.over the past few weeks to make sure that this bridge could open as
:01:52. > :01:54.quickly as possible. So it is a very pleasing sight for most of the
:01:55. > :01:56.regular traffic which uses it to see it up and running this evening, 12
:01:57. > :02:03.days ahead of schedule. 5:20am, and the Forth Road Bridge
:02:04. > :02:06.was back in action. Vans, cars, buses and bikes
:02:07. > :02:09.make 90% of users. They had a clear run
:02:10. > :02:11.across the water. It is nice to stretch your legs
:02:12. > :02:16.and get back in the swing of things. It's even been too busy
:02:17. > :02:22.to get the bike on. From paying nothing to the best part
:02:23. > :02:47.of ?15 a day has been It will be another six weeks before
:02:48. > :02:51.lorries can cross. Police officers were out to make sure they obeyed
:02:52. > :02:54.the restriction. The industry claims the prolonged closure will cost them
:02:55. > :02:59.?40 million, affecting businesses right across the country. We were
:03:00. > :03:03.very disappointed yesterday to hear the minister announcing that the
:03:04. > :03:06.bridge would reopen but not for HGVs. It is a kick in the stomach
:03:07. > :03:10.for us now because we had expected to be like, road by the start of
:03:11. > :03:16.January. Things appeared to be going well. The traffic actually has been
:03:17. > :03:19.very light. We have not had any queues, any difficulties on the
:03:20. > :03:26.network at all this morning. We are glad to see the cars using the
:03:27. > :03:30.bridge again. On both sides of the Forth, they will now begin to count
:03:31. > :03:36.the cost of the disruption. It has not been an easy year for Fife. It
:03:37. > :03:39.has added to the timescales and added to uncertainty. There is some
:03:40. > :03:43.worry that this might have a long-term effect on some customers.
:03:44. > :03:48.Looking out across the water, it seems for many there will indeed be
:03:49. > :03:54.a very Merry Christmas. The Scottish Government says it has set up a
:03:55. > :03:58.helpline for hauliers and it is trying to keep the diversion routes
:03:59. > :04:03.as clear as possible. But any talk of compensation will be ongoing. For
:04:04. > :04:07.small businesses, it is back to business as usual. Stephen Gordon
:04:08. > :04:11.was up at the crack of dawn this morning to join a butcher based in
:04:12. > :04:18.Fife as it made its deliveries back into the capital. Succes, Claire
:04:19. > :04:23.Mitchell and her husband, packing up the orders for a trip to market. The
:04:24. > :04:27.family have been farming in West Fife for generations. But for the
:04:28. > :04:32.last three weeks their butchery business has faced an entirely new
:04:33. > :04:37.problem - the closure of the Forth Road Bridge. This morning at last
:04:38. > :04:41.they could avoid the long way round. It feels quite a big relief. It is
:04:42. > :04:48.lovely not to have to drive all the way around and Zhou and find
:04:49. > :04:52.alternate routes. It has added a lot of time onto the journey to
:04:53. > :04:55.Edinburgh. So this is lovely, very exciting actually. Shortly before
:04:56. > :05:00.seven o'clock, on to the bridge, passing under the north tower and
:05:01. > :05:08.the repaired steel truss a few metres below. It is a bit blowy but
:05:09. > :05:12.hopefully we are safe. Which after all was why the bridge was closed in
:05:13. > :05:17.the first place. Now it is reopened, there is a bit more time to consider
:05:18. > :05:22.pre-Christmas consequences. It is such a busy time of year. We really
:05:23. > :05:30.need to be back at the farm doing the production rather than spending
:05:31. > :05:33.hours out-driving and delivering. Arriving in Edinburgh, she sets up a
:05:34. > :05:38.stall for one final day of trading before the festive shutdown. With
:05:39. > :05:42.the capital a bridge too far for many until today, there have been
:05:43. > :05:47.upsides. A captive market has meant local Fife trade has been booming.
:05:48. > :05:50.When you have a challenge, at the beginning you think it is
:05:51. > :05:56.insurmountable, but after awhile you of ways around it. It makes you
:05:57. > :06:00.realise that lots of things can be coped with. You just have to deal
:06:01. > :06:04.with it the same as everybody else! Like many others in Fife and beyond,
:06:05. > :06:14.this business will take stock of the bridge closure and hope the worst is
:06:15. > :06:18.now behind them. But of course this is not quite the end of the story.
:06:19. > :06:22.There is still some work to be done on the bridge in January which might
:06:23. > :06:25.mean some restrictions. And of course that Parliamentary inquiry
:06:26. > :06:27.will get under way to try to establish if anything could been
:06:28. > :06:45.done to stop this closure happening in the first place.
:06:46. > :06:47.The Scottish government and the Scotch Whisky Association
:06:48. > :06:50.have both welcomed today's ruling by the European Court of Justice
:06:51. > :06:53.in a case over the proposed introduction of a minimum
:06:54. > :06:57.The court in Luxembourg said the policy, which the drinks lobby
:06:58. > :06:59.Ministers say they will continue to argue minimum pricing
:07:00. > :07:04.Our home affairs correspondent Reevel Alderson reports.
:07:05. > :07:11.Scotland has a troubled relationship with alcohol. ?3.6 billion is the
:07:12. > :07:16.estimated annual cost to the NHS. The devilment has proposed a 50p
:07:17. > :07:22.minimum unit price for alcohol to help tackle alcohol misuse.
:07:23. > :07:25.Following a complaint by the Scotch Whisky Association, the European
:07:26. > :07:29.Court of Justice was asked whether this policy contravened European
:07:30. > :07:35.trade laws. Their ruling today is far from definitive. Judges have
:07:36. > :07:39.passed the matter back to the court of session in Edinburgh to determine
:07:40. > :07:43.whether an alternative such as increasing alcohol duty would help
:07:44. > :07:46.cut the problems caused by drink. The Scotch Whisky Association, which
:07:47. > :07:49.brought the case, welcome to the ruling, which it says confirmed
:07:50. > :07:57.minimum unit pricing contravenes free trade laws. It confirms 30
:07:58. > :08:01.years of European case law. It says minimum pricing is a restriction on
:08:02. > :08:05.trade in the EU and therefore it is illegal to choose minimum pricing
:08:06. > :08:08.when there are other less restrictive means available. The
:08:09. > :08:12.Scottish Government also welcome the ruling. Drink taxes are reserved to
:08:13. > :08:16.Westminster. But ministers here say they will seek to persuade Scottish
:08:17. > :08:20.judges that minimum unit pricing targets problem drinkers. Taxation
:08:21. > :08:24.affects Pepsi drinkers and Pepsi drinks in the same way, whereas
:08:25. > :08:30.minimum unit pricing targets of those cheap, strong products which
:08:31. > :08:35.do the most harm. So actually we will argue strongly that it is
:08:36. > :08:40.actually a less restrictive measure. It is more targeted and therefore
:08:41. > :08:45.more effective, we will argue. Health campaigners say alcohol is
:08:46. > :08:48.60% cheaper than it was in 1980 and it is vital that problem drinking
:08:49. > :08:53.and the anti-social behaviour it causes are tackled. We are really
:08:54. > :08:57.disappointed that this court case continues. We have 20 people a week
:08:58. > :09:00.in Scotland dying of alcohol-related causes come and that is avoidable.
:09:01. > :09:07.The best way to reduce those deaths is by getting this cheap, dangerous
:09:08. > :09:13.product off the market. And minimum pricing is a way of doing that.
:09:14. > :09:16.Minimum unit pricing is still a long way off. Once the court of session
:09:17. > :09:18.has delivered its own ruling next year, it is likely the case will be
:09:19. > :09:26.appealed to the UK Supreme Court. The great Christmas holiday
:09:27. > :09:28.getaway is well underway. Today is expected to be the busiest
:09:29. > :09:31.day for festive travellers, though strong winds and heavy
:09:32. > :09:44.seas have been creating At Glasgow bus station today, the
:09:45. > :09:52.Christmas getaway was well under way. We are taking the wee man to
:09:53. > :09:57.Paris for Christmas to go to Disneyland. Almost a week in Paris
:09:58. > :10:01.and we are away back to Aberdeen. I am going up to Inverness on the bus,
:10:02. > :10:07.which will take about four hours, and I am going on from there.
:10:08. > :10:17.Heading up to Inverness, taking four hours, hopefully. But the bus is
:10:18. > :10:20.late at the moment. Travel is also proving to be a massively popular
:10:21. > :10:24.option when it comes to the great festive getaway. Here at Glasgow
:10:25. > :10:28.airport they reckon 15,000 people have been through its terminal
:10:29. > :10:32.building. And that is just today. Many have decided to escape the cold
:10:33. > :10:38.weather, in favour of somewhere warmer. Some of the popular sun
:10:39. > :10:44.spots include Alicante, Gran Canaria, Spain, Dubai. But our
:10:45. > :10:47.domestic services are also very busy, especially the flights to
:10:48. > :10:51.London, Belfast, Manchester, Bristol. There is huge demand for
:10:52. > :10:56.nearly every service which is leaving Glasgow airport over the
:10:57. > :11:00.next day or two. Elsewhere, trains were running normally here at
:11:01. > :11:05.Aberdeen station and at others around Scotland, with no major
:11:06. > :11:08.problems. That is before services start to wind down tomorrow evening
:11:09. > :11:13.before gearing up again on Boxing Day. But it was not good news
:11:14. > :11:18.everywhere. Bad weather caused major problems on the ferries. Passengers
:11:19. > :11:22.of all varieties were turned away from Clyde and Hebridean services,
:11:23. > :11:26.most of which were cancelled or faced disruption. On the roads, a
:11:27. > :11:30.last-minute flurry of Christmas shoppers only caused minor traffic
:11:31. > :11:34.issues. So the message for festive travellers seems to be, so far, so
:11:35. > :11:38.good. Not with warnings of severe weather over the next few days, the
:11:39. > :11:41.public is being urged to be vigilant before travelling.
:11:42. > :11:44.Many secondary school teachers in West Dunbartonshire are set

:12:47. > :12:57.The Christmas lights are hanging above the Alyth burn like they do
:12:58. > :13:03.every year. It was a very different picture back in July. After hours of
:13:04. > :13:07.heavy rain, the burn burst its banks, sending a surge of water
:13:08. > :13:12.through the town. A shocking demonstration of the force of
:13:13. > :13:16.nature. This man and his daughter will not be back in their ground
:13:17. > :13:21.floor flat before Christmas. They lost just about everything in the
:13:22. > :13:25.flood. It was halfway up my door. I could not open the door to get out
:13:26. > :13:31.because if I did, it would all just flood in. So it was really, really
:13:32. > :13:35.scary looking back now, thinking, if I had not woken up, what could have
:13:36. > :13:39.happened? Local businesses like this pooches also suffered as water and
:13:40. > :13:46.mud came in through the door. The shop filled up to about 3ft. How
:13:47. > :13:51.quickly? Within half an hour. The guys in the shop had to go upstairs,
:13:52. > :13:54.they were stranded. Now it is almost back to business as usual. They are
:13:55. > :13:58.hard at work getting the Christmas orders ready. One or two wholesale
:13:59. > :14:05.customers are still closed and will not be open for a while. But you
:14:06. > :14:08.really feel quite moved by the response we have had from people who
:14:09. > :14:13.come and shop with you. There is still flood damage to be repaired in
:14:14. > :14:16.Alyth. Leering up is still going on. When it mattered, this community
:14:17. > :14:21.rallied round to help those made homeless. It was fantastic. The
:14:22. > :14:26.whole community spirit. Also the story of this event, how the
:14:27. > :14:28.community has pulled together and are still supporting one another
:14:29. > :14:32.now. A report into why this burn are still supporting one another

:14:37. > :14:40.down to the amount of rainfall and that such an event should only
:14:41. > :14:45.happen once every 200 years. The people of Alyth will be hoping that
:14:46. > :14:49.that is true and that they can look forward to a drier 2016.

:16:17. > :16:22.Winning a medal in Glasgow was the special way to cap off my
:16:23. > :16:26.international career and to make it with Robert, my long-standing
:16:27. > :16:31.partner for such a long time. And winning a silver medal in the World
:16:32. > :16:35.Championships in 2011 was an incredible experience and something
:16:36. > :16:41.I will cherish for the rest of my life. So where do her achievements.
:16:42. > :16:49.Sit within the history of the sport? Without doubt Imogen has been our
:16:50. > :16:54.most successful female athlete ever. It must be said she's been a true
:16:55. > :17:01.inspiration to the next generation of players that are now emerging. We
:17:02. > :17:05.are very sad that she's retiring. Bankier admits disappointment with
:17:06. > :17:10.London 2012, so was she tempted to carry on for Rio? When the
:17:11. > :17:14.qualifications started it seemed quite unobtainable for me to make
:17:15. > :17:20.it. I always knew the last six months or so it wasn't going
:17:21. > :17:23.something I could take part in. So that affected my decision in the
:17:24. > :17:28.end. After retirement there are diverse challenges ahead. Her
:17:29. > :17:33.father, the Celtic chairman, has a business opportunity. I started
:17:34. > :17:38.working for the whisky shop at the beginning of this year. They are
:17:39. > :17:41.going to open a new shop in Paris, so I've been offered the opportunity
:17:42. > :17:44.to go over there. It is completely different, a different world, a
:17:45. > :17:51.different life. It is something I feel I can really get my teeth into.

:18:11. > :18:12.doubly disappointed to miss out, for Scotland, and for Glasgow

:19:22. > :19:26.got 18 shows left. We've been supporting you guys over there,
:19:27. > :19:31.Partick Thistle. Get some of the toys to support the show. Why
:19:32. > :19:36.Partick Thistle? Because it is like Knight rider. You can make a
:19:37. > :19:41.difference in your own life you can make a difference in somebody else's
:19:42. > :19:45.life. That's what the team is about. It is not playing for a specific
:19:46. > :19:49.city but playing for your honour. To do the best you can. We came over
:19:50. > :19:54.here and they were making a joke about the worst team in the history
:19:55. > :19:59.of the world. If they win the four games in a row, the best record for
:20:00. > :20:02.40 years. That's strange. It is a wonderful thing when you can come
:20:03. > :20:06.over and draw that energy. You are the lucky mascot. You know what, I
:20:07. > :20:11.am. You know so much about Partick Thistle. Who is the manager? Alan
:20:12. > :20:19.Archibald. When did they last win the League Cup? 1971. There we are,
:20:20. > :20:25.definitely a Partick Thistle. They've been around since 1786. I've
:20:26. > :20:30.been around since 1876. Knight Rider was real for me. When I got it I
:20:31. > :20:35.called my dad and said dad, I've got the greatest show in the world. And
:20:36. > :20:40.we are still living in dream. And with that it is back to our own
