I will be back with the late News at ten.

:00:00.:00:07.

Now on BBC1 its time for the news where you are.

:00:08.:00:09.

Two people have died and three others have been injured after a car

:00:10.:00:17.

crashed into water in a cemetery in Glasgow early this morning.

:00:18.:00:19.

The 21-one-year old driver Kieran Lundie and one

:00:20.:00:21.

of his female passengers - 24-year-old Gemma McMonagle -

:00:22.:00:23.

carrying a number of passengers hit a building.

:00:24.:00:33.

Floral tributes have been placed yet the scene where two people died this

:00:34.:00:37.

morning. It was just before one o'clock in the morning when a car

:00:38.:00:41.

travelling north out of the city careered off the road, smashed into

:00:42.:00:46.

the railings and ended up in the water. Police, fire and ambulance

:00:47.:00:49.

followed very soon after but the 21-year-old male driver and one of

:00:50.:00:53.

his 24-year-old female passengers were pronounced dead at the scene.

:00:54.:00:58.

There are three other passengers, two men and one woman. They were all

:00:59.:01:02.

taken to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital and the so said

:01:03.:01:05.

of Glasgow. The women as any critical condition. One of the men

:01:06.:01:09.

is stable and the other escaped without injury. Police are appealing

:01:10.:01:12.

for anyone who may have seen anything, they may have witnessed

:01:13.:01:16.

the crash to come forward with any information they may have.

:01:17.:01:18.

Thousands of steam enthusiasts turned out as the Flying Scotsman

:01:19.:01:20.

It followed a U-turn by Network Rail, which said

:01:21.:01:27.

on Friday the engine could not travel to Fife and the Borders.

:01:28.:01:30.

Our transport correspondent David Miller joined the locomotive

:01:31.:01:33.

This is arguably the most famous Scotsman in the world and the crowds

:01:34.:01:46.

here are delighted to see the locomotive back in the city it was

:01:47.:01:56.

built to serve. Network Rail raised controversy on Friday after

:01:57.:01:59.

cancelling excursions to the Borders and Fife at the last minute. Despite

:02:00.:02:03.

months of planning, bosses argued they had not had time to complete

:02:04.:02:09.

safety checks. But passengers finally had something to celebrate

:02:10.:02:13.

after 24 hours of frantic negotiations. We got the good news

:02:14.:02:19.

and that was the icing on the cake. We read a bit disappointed but we

:02:20.:02:24.

thought, it's still going to be a really good day out. Happy days. And

:02:25.:02:32.

for the company behind the excursions, this was a day for

:02:33.:02:36.

celebration, not recrimination. It's all some. It's a great that of

:02:37.:02:42.

railway, the fact it has been rebuilt and to have the Flying

:02:43.:02:47.

Scotsman on here is topping it off. But Scotland's transport Bannister

:02:48.:02:50.

who want to end the impasse still wants answers. -- works to end. It

:02:51.:02:58.

is ridiculous that it almost didn't go ahead because the process wasn't

:02:59.:03:02.

taken properly. This project should there have been jeopardised the way

:03:03.:03:05.

it was but I'm delighted it is going ahead thanks to our interventions.

:03:06.:03:12.

The crowds which lined the route looked delighted, too, and the most

:03:13.:03:15.

attacked other images may yet be to come. This evening, Flying Scotsman

:03:16.:03:21.

heads north across the bridge to Fife.

:03:22.:03:23.

Opposition parties at the Scottish Parliament have said

Labour MSP James Kelly said he plans to bring forward a Member's Bill

:03:35.:03:40.

:03:44.:03:45.

The Scottish Government has said the act had delivered

:03:46.:03:48.

The largest Sikh place of worship in Scotland was opened today.

:03:49.:03:57.

The gurdwara - or temple - has taken six years to build and has

:03:58.:04:01.

Almost every piece of raw material has been imported from India.

:04:02.:04:07.

The building will be made available to the general public when it's

:04:08.:04:10.

Around 10,000 people from Sikh communities across the UK

:04:11.:04:13.

came to the opening, along with political

:04:14.:04:15.

We have been waiting for this for a while and we are very excited to see

:04:16.:04:29.

this. It gets us so excited. It's a really nice place. We're very

:04:30.:04:39.

excited. Enjoy your day. Thanks very much.

:04:40.:04:41.

Andy Murray has beaten Novak Djokovic to win the Italian Open.

:04:42.:04:43.

On his 29th birthday, the Scot recorded his first win

:04:44.:04:46.

against the World Number One on clay in five attempts.

:04:47.:04:50.

Last weekend, Andy Murray lost to Novak Djokovic

:04:51.:04:52.

But this afternoon in Rome, he made a statement of intent

:04:53.:05:00.

He then went on to take the set by six games to three.

:05:01.:05:08.

But it took the British Number One an hour and 35 minutes

:05:09.:05:11.

It came in straight sets, and he took the second set

:05:12.:05:14.

The victory means Murray will return to the world number two ranking,

:05:15.:05:19.

ahead of the French Open in Paris, which begins on May the 22nd.

:05:20.:05:25.

Celtic celebrated the retention of the Scottish title with a 7-0

:05:26.:05:28.

The last goal was scored by Celtic's youngest-ever debutant,

:05:29.:05:33.

Celtic were presented with the Premiership trophy,

:05:34.:05:38.

Elsewhere, Ross County beat Aberdeen 4-0 while Hearts

:05:39.:05:46.

The Championship playoff final was won by Ayr United.

:05:47.:05:56.

A 1930s steam ship that gave its name to the ocean liner

:05:57.:05:58.

Queen Mary has returned to the Clyde.

:05:59.:06:00.

The turbine steamer arrived at Greenock after being towed

:06:01.:06:03.

The vessel had been languishing at the docks for years

:06:04.:06:07.

A charity is raising funds to restore the ship

:06:08.:06:12.

and have her berthed permanently in Glasgow.

:06:13.:06:17.

Let's get the weather forecast for this evening and the start

:06:18.:06:19.

The weather has been changed to most of us across Scotland today with

:06:20.:06:33.

some lovely sunshine across central and southern areas and that is the

:06:34.:06:37.

theme that continues this evening. More in the way of cloud across the

:06:38.:06:41.

north with light and patchy outbreaks of rain. That stays with

:06:42.:06:44.

us through the overnight period. Clearer skies for central and

:06:45.:06:49.

southern parts. For some sheltered areas we could see a touch of grass

:06:50.:06:54.

frost. More typically, temperature will hold at about five or six

:06:55.:07:01.

Celsius. We start tomorrow sunshine across central Scotland and cloud

:07:02.:07:07.

across the north and some cloud across central and southern areas

:07:08.:07:10.

through the day. I don't fall o'clock tomorrow afternoon, perhaps

:07:11.:07:14.

one or two lecturers across the northern and western Isles, through

:07:15.:07:24.

Skye. In the northeast, spells of sunshine and a similar story across

:07:25.:07:32.

central and southern Scotland. It would feel too bad at all in the

:07:33.:07:36.

sunshine. I crossed the rest of the UK, we are under the influence of

:07:37.:07:40.

high pressure so dry and settled but some brightness and sunshine and a

:07:41.:07:44.

top temperature of about 18 Celsius across the South East. For us into

:07:45.:07:49.

the evening, it stays largely dry. Always that bit cloudier in the

:07:50.:07:53.

north and on Tuesday after a dry start, we'll have some rain moving

:07:54.:07:54.

in judging the day. Our next update is just

:07:55.:07:57.

after the ten o'clock news.
