:05:57. > :06:14.editor, Brian Taylor. Tricia Marwick attends upon the
:06:15. > :06:24.Queen. A reminder that the remit is wide. She also keeps order in
:06:25. > :06:28.Parliament. Tricia Marwick's deputies welcomed the President of
:06:29. > :06:32.Ghana. They are keen to step up. Miss Smith wants to inform
:06:33. > :06:38.colleagues first. John Scott is ready. I would aim to bring fairness
:06:39. > :06:43.to the job. That has been that thing in the path that has kept me awake
:06:44. > :06:48.at night, wondering if I had been fair across-the-board to all
:06:49. > :06:55.members. The first presiding officer was David steel of the Liberal
:06:56. > :07:00.Democrats. He was followed by George Reid of the SNP. Finally Tricia
:07:01. > :07:06.Marwick also what the SNP. All left their parties behind when they took
:07:07. > :07:11.the job. It was said the presiding officer should not come from the
:07:12. > :07:16.governing party. The SNP is happy to accept that because, as a minority,
:07:17. > :07:21.they cannot afford to give up even one vote. Within the Conservative
:07:22. > :07:26.group, Murdo Fraser is considering the prospect and is thought to have
:07:27. > :07:33.backing from Ruth Davidson. Would SNP members back a Tory perhaps to
:07:34. > :07:38.remove one vote from Tory ranks? Some say it is up to Labour. The
:07:39. > :07:43.former leader, Johann Lamont, is a contender. Some question her
:07:44. > :07:47.comments in the daily record where she said Parliament needs to correct
:07:48. > :07:53.mistakes. She said you was making a general point and not singling out
:07:54. > :07:58.the SNP. I think it is about asserting the role of Parliament. At
:07:59. > :08:04.certain stages we do different things better. Our ambitions
:08:05. > :08:06.regarding access to Parliament and scrutinising the Government,
:08:07. > :08:10.cross-party we can agree with that. It is not about the Government
:08:11. > :08:18.having a good idea and pushing it through because they have a
:08:19. > :08:24.majority. That is Labour's Ken Mackintosh in his election campaign
:08:25. > :08:32.video. He says he also seeks to spread harmony at Holyrood. We need
:08:33. > :08:35.someone who can work with people and not against them. I would work with
:08:36. > :08:46.others to make sure their views came across. A solution could be at hand.
:08:47. > :08:57.Gary says he will do the job if he gets a throne. Brian, why is there a
:08:58. > :09:05.feeling there needs to be further reform of Holyrood? In politics, it
:09:06. > :09:09.is about power. There are different interests at stake. The SNP wants to
:09:10. > :09:14.get as much of their manifested through as possible, even though
:09:15. > :09:19.they are in minority. Opposition parties want to contain them,
:09:20. > :09:24.constrain them. Not work against them. They are the opposition. They
:09:25. > :09:30.want to hold back and reform and revised that there is a wider issue
:09:31. > :09:33.here as well. Scottish parliament does not have a revising second
:09:34. > :09:36.chamber. They have to get it right first time. There are many across
:09:37. > :09:40.all the parties who filled the committee system needs to be
:09:41. > :09:42.sharper, more precise and more focused, in order to ensure that

:10:49. > :10:55.under attack from the common Raven, which is wreaking havoc on their
:10:56. > :11:00.holding. I have lost probably about 30 lambs to ravens this year. Also
:11:01. > :11:07.we are not getting a chance to save any lands. It is haunting to see
:11:08. > :11:11.your hard work lying there and dying. For the children to
:11:12. > :11:18.experience as well, it is very upsetting. Images of the slaughtered
:11:19. > :11:23.lambs are too gory. Birds attacked their eyes and tongue is first. On
:11:24. > :11:30.this farm, there is evidence that they strike when the sheep is giving
:11:31. > :11:36.birth. The carnage is repeated in Caithness where they are reporting
:11:37. > :11:41.hundreds of losses. The ravens are teaming up and attacking the lambs.
:11:42. > :11:49.You didn't mind one or two over a season but it is getting more and
:11:50. > :11:56.more ravens appearing. Ravens can be shot under licences issued by
:11:57. > :12:02.Scottish Natural high Heritage. The rules on permits are far too
:12:03. > :12:06.restrictive. It is felt that this has reached a climax and there needs
:12:07. > :12:15.to be serious control measures put in place. We believe that could be a
:12:16. > :12:22.season stipulated carrying out Raven control. Conservationists warn they
:12:23. > :12:29.season stipulated carrying out Raven will challenge any move to take them
:12:30. > :12:34.off the protected species list. It is not nice to see young lambs being
:12:35. > :12:41.taken by ravens. We need to find the best way to tackle that. In the
:12:42. > :12:46.meantime, farmers throughout the area are on high alert, as the

:18:08. > :18:09.sporting round-up. Roy Keane is the new favourite to be
:18:10. > :18:11.the next Celtic manager. The Republic of Ireland number two
:18:12. > :18:14.has been linked with the job in the past but one bookmaker has
:18:15. > :18:17.now stopped taking bets on him Here's our Senior Football
:18:18. > :18:28.Reporter Chris McLaughlin. Well, even before Ronnie Deila
:18:29. > :18:32.announced he was standing down here there was already speculation about
:18:33. > :18:36.who would replace him. We have already seen Brendan Rodgers as the
:18:37. > :18:40.favourite. David Moyes has been the favourite. Today, one particular
:18:41. > :18:46.Irish book-maker has suspended betting on Roy Keane. Is that a
:18:47. > :18:50.publicity stunt? Perhaps. But we know that the Celtic owner is a fan
:18:51. > :18:53.publicity stunt? Perhaps. But we of the former Manchester United
:18:54. > :18:58.captain. He tried to bring him in last time. It was thought Deila
:18:59. > :19:03.could be his number two. Roy Keane as the new manager? Here's one man
:19:04. > :19:14.who has worked underneath him at sun derland. He is hard, but fair. What
:19:15. > :19:18.you see is really what you get. He was an aggressive player, he wanted
:19:19. > :19:23.to win every match and from what I have seen it's exactly the same as a
:19:24. > :19:28.manager. Celtic have two games remaining before the season ends.
:19:29. > :19:32.But my information from the club is that no decision is imminent and
:19:33. > :19:35.that they are still interviewing potential candidates so don't be
:19:36. > :19:38.surprised if you see more favourites between now and the new man being
:19:39. > :19:40.announced. Watch this space.
:19:41. > :19:43.The Hibs manager Alan Stubbs says he won't let speculation
:19:44. > :19:47.over his future get in the way of the Premiership play-off
:19:48. > :19:50.It's the first leg tonight at Easter Road, with the second-leg
:19:51. > :20:10.In from Henderson. McGregor! 2-0. Hibs kept alive hopes of promotion
:20:11. > :20:15.with victory in the play-off quarter-final. Over the weekend the
:20:16. > :20:19.Hibs boss linked with a vacancy at Bolton, but with a Scottish Cup
:20:20. > :20:26.final on the horizon as well, he says his focus is entirely on Hibs.
:20:27. > :20:31.Only one thing on my mind right now and that's trying to achieve a great
:20:32. > :20:40.end to the season for the football club. And nothing will deter me away
:20:41. > :20:48.or make me lose concentration, no matter what is in the paper. In
:20:49. > :20:52.contrast, the Hibs exertions against Raith, Falkirk sealed second place
:20:53. > :20:56.in the championship with victory over Morton. They face Hibs and then
:20:57. > :20:59.host them for a second leg on Friday T should be tight. Four games
:21:00. > :21:03.between the sides this season, three draws and one narrow Hibs victory. I
:21:04. > :21:06.think it's important that we stress to players and I am sure Alan will
:21:07. > :21:10.say to his players as well, keep discipline, not just in the shape
:21:11. > :21:14.side of the game and tactics but also keep discipline, no doubt there
:21:15. > :21:18.will be tackles flying and that's the nature of the beast. The sides
:21:19. > :21:23.met in the Scottish Cup semifinal last year. Falkirk were the winners
:21:24. > :21:27.that day. Who will be celebrating first leg success tonight?
:21:28. > :21:30.And there's live commentary of the match on Sportsound, along
:21:31. > :21:32.with updates from the Premiership game between Dundee United

:21:41. > :21:42.Edinburgh Rugby's chief executive says the move from Murrayfield
:21:43. > :21:45.to Myreside should build a strong future for the club.
:21:46. > :21:48.It should also certainly generate a better atmosphere.
:21:49. > :21:50.Currently an average of 4,000 Edinburgh fans cheer
:21:51. > :21:53.their side on in a stadium with a capacity of 70,000.
:21:54. > :22:04.Murrayfield, it's been the spiritual home for Edinburgh rugby over the
:22:05. > :22:09.past 20 years. But a move up the road is afoot. Along with a new
:22:10. > :22:13.partnership. We need as a club to be able to create space for ourselves,
:22:14. > :22:19.to really grow and move ourselves forward and this is the ideal
:22:20. > :22:24.opportunity in partnership with the college who have been a willing
:22:25. > :22:29.partner to engage with. The move to here will take place next January
:22:30. > :22:34.and the capacity will be increased from 2,000, to around 5,000.
:22:35. > :22:35.However, for bigger games it will attract bigger crowds, Edinburgh
:22:36. > :22:42.However, for bigger games it will will return to Murrayfield. Matches
:22:43. > :22:46.like the 1872 Scottish Cup, the big event matches where this year we had
:22:47. > :22:50.a crowd of 24,000 and we look to continue to grow that we would look
:22:51. > :22:55.to always take these back to here at Murrayfield. One former captain of
:22:56. > :23:00.Edinburgh and George Watson's says the move will bring a much needed
:23:01. > :23:03.attribute for the Pro side. It's always been received well by the
:23:04. > :23:09.players. It's a tremendous surface, it's a wide pitch, it's as big as
:23:10. > :23:14.Murrayfield. Big in-goal areas, it's attractive to play rugby, it's more
:23:15. > :23:16.about the intimacy and atmosphere that Edinburgh can generate now and
:23:17. > :23:21.that's what I am looking forward to. Nine months to wait for the fans.
:23:22. > :23:23.They hope the move will turn around the club's fortunes on the pitch.
:23:24. > :23:28.That's the sport for tonight. The West Highland Rail line
:23:29. > :23:34.between Fort William and Mallaig is one of the great railway journeys
:23:35. > :23:37.of the world and it's back Its fame may have been boosted
:23:38. > :23:41.by its key role in the Harry Potter films but, as Craig Anderson
:23:42. > :23:53.reports, this year the sound Through 42 miles of some of the most
:23:54. > :23:56.stunning scenery. This is the first week back in operation for the
:23:57. > :24:00.summer season. With brilliant sunshine and temperatures of more
:24:01. > :24:03.than 25C, train spotters and passengers on board were delighted.
:24:04. > :24:10.We are loving it. It's a beautiful day. Gorgeous. Fantastic day. Very
:24:11. > :24:13.good so far. I am impressed by the weather. The train was packed today.
:24:14. > :24:19.good so far. I am impressed by the And it's booked up weeks and months
:24:20. > :24:23.in advance. There was definitely a Harry Potter effect but they did a
:24:24. > :24:27.survey on train journeys of the world and it was one of those
:24:28. > :24:32.services they identified as probably the greatest.
:24:33. > :24:35.But an official inquiry and court prosecutions over safety failings by
:24:36. > :24:41.the train company in the west of England led to fears that regulators
:24:42. > :24:44.might ban West Coast railways from running services this year.
:24:45. > :24:48.Fortunately that's been sorted out now. It would be a disaster, it
:24:49. > :24:54.would be a knock-on effect. There is not just people like myself but you
:24:55. > :25:00.have folks who run bed and breakfasts and so on, all along the
:25:01. > :25:03.line, they would all be affected by the steam train not being around. It
:25:04. > :25:14.brings good things to the area. The return of the steam train to the
:25:15. > :25:20.line signals brighter summery days ahead. The fact that it attracts
:25:21. > :25:24.hundreds and hundreds of visitors and enthusiasts means it brings joy
:25:25. > :25:28.to the tourist industry too. This year that joy has been twinned with
:25:29. > :25:30.a measure of relief due to the fact that it might not have been able to
:25:31. > :25:40.run on these tracks after all. Just ahead of the weather news
:25:41. > :25:43.of tonight's Scotland 2016. And we hear from an 84-year-old
:25:44. > :25:46.survivor of Hiroshima who's urging politicians here to oppose
:25:47. > :26:00.the renewal of the Trident nuclear I started seeing moving objects
:26:01. > :26:05.nearing me. I couldn't believe they were human beings. They just didn't
:26:06. > :26:09.look like human beings. It was a procession of ghosts. You can see
:26:10. > :26:11.more that was interview tonight on BBC Two.
:26:12. > :26:25.Now the latest weather forecast. Plenty of dazzling sunshine on offer
:26:26. > :26:29.as demonstrated here. Not a cloud in the sky. I should also mention that
:26:30. > :26:33.our top hot spots this afternoon were on the Isle of Skye.
:26:34. > :26:37.our top hot spots this afternoon Sglp The emphasis for tonight and
:26:38. > :26:42.the overnight period is for plenty of dry weather and clear skies too.
:26:43. > :26:48.Here is the picture this evening. Plenty of late evening sunshine to
:26:49. > :26:49.end the day. Perhaps more cloud feeding in to south-western parts
:26:50. > :26:53.end the day. Perhaps more cloud and perhaps a few spots of rain.
:26:54. > :26:58.Elsewhere, largely dry and plenty of clear skies. Mist and fog forming up
:26:59. > :27:03.through the northern Isles, perhaps sinking south. But not a cold night
:27:04. > :27:06.by any means. Temperatures holding newspaper double figures along the
:27:07. > :27:10.West Coast and perhaps sheltered rural spots dipping to around four
:27:11. > :27:15.or five. Tomorrow morning and any mist and
:27:16. > :27:18.low cloud in the far north perhaps stubborn to clear but it eventually
:27:19. > :27:22.does that during the morning and cloud in the south-west also
:27:23. > :27:27.clearing away to leave another fine, dry and bright day. Plenty of
:27:28. > :27:29.sunshine around and in that sunshine temperatures responding well,
:27:30. > :27:35.particularly so along the West Coast. We could see temperatures
:27:36. > :27:40.reaching highs of 22 for many parts. Always cooler up through the
:27:41. > :27:43.northern Isles where we will have a fresh north-Easterly breeze and
:27:44. > :27:46.similarly along the coast and down the east coast with a fresh onshore
:27:47. > :27:51.breeze. Into the rest of the afternoon into
:27:52. > :27:55.the evening period, not much change. We are hanging on to plenty of fine
:27:56. > :27:59.and dry weather and sunshine to end the day. Perhaps more in the way of
:28:00. > :28:04.cloud feeding in to the south-east corner. Thursday then and we are
:28:05. > :28:07.pulling air in from the north but still under the influence of high
:28:08. > :28:12.pressure so plenty of fine and dry weather. That air from the north is
:28:13. > :28:18.going to be pegging temperatures back along the east coast. Further
:28:19. > :28:24.west doing best. That's it for now. Thank you very much. That's
:28:25. > :28:25.Reporting Scotland. We are back after the 10.00pm news. Until then,
:28:26. > :28:26.good evening.
