:00:00. > :00:09.The two sides in the EU referendum campaign make their final pitches

:00:10. > :00:22.There is a choice between remaining on the fringes of an unreformed and

:00:23. > :00:28.unreformable EU. Or taking control of our own destiny. If you want to

:00:29. > :00:30.see an outward looking country, part of the world's biggest single

:00:31. > :00:32.market, working with other countries to tackle big issues, vote to

:00:33. > :00:34.remain. Also on the programme,

:00:35. > :00:36.The convicted drug smuggler, Melissa Reid, is on her way back

:00:37. > :00:39.to Britain after being released We hear from the man who gave up

:00:40. > :00:44.a dream life in the music industry to care for his mum

:00:45. > :00:46.after she got dementia. Gordon Strachan says

:00:47. > :00:48.despite not qualifying for the Euros his Scotland team

:00:49. > :00:50.is better than some And life after the oil industry -

:00:51. > :00:55.the workers made redundant who are now finding

:00:56. > :01:12.unlikely new careers. have issued a joint statement

:01:13. > :01:19.backing a Remain vote But on this final day

:01:20. > :01:24.of campaigning, Scottish Here's our political

:01:25. > :01:42.correspondent, Glenn Campbell. A late surge of energy in an

:01:43. > :01:50.otherwise lacklustre Scottish campaign. Up remained dance at

:01:51. > :01:55.Holyrood but Vote Leave say it is too early to party because UK

:01:56. > :02:03.opinion polls are close. Scottish votes could be decisive. So, on the

:02:04. > :02:07.last day, In campaigners gathered in Glasgow and a statue of Donald Dewar

:02:08. > :02:13.as his deputy and all of his successors as first Minister confirm

:02:14. > :02:17.support to remain. I am off to Benidorm! The current first Minister

:02:18. > :02:23.said that leaving the EU would make travel and trade harder. I want

:02:24. > :02:26.people to remain in the EU tomorrow with passion to protect the jobs and

:02:27. > :02:29.people to remain in the EU tomorrow investment that come with being part

:02:30. > :02:33.of the single market, to protect freedom of travel but also to

:02:34. > :02:38.protect our place in the world. To remain a country that is outward

:02:39. > :02:41.looking and. One that shuts itself. Remain campaigner is like the first

:02:42. > :02:47.Minister think that continued membership of the EU, with access to

:02:48. > :02:53.its single market, is the best way to protect jobs and respiratory but

:02:54. > :02:59.those on the Leave side believe that outside the European Union, the UK,

:03:00. > :03:04.including Scotland, but trade more freely around the world. The EU is

:03:05. > :03:08.an important market but not the most important but it is important but

:03:09. > :03:13.once were outside we can still sell into the single market, we would not

:03:14. > :03:17.have to burden every single company in Scotland with a regulation that

:03:18. > :03:22.comes with that. Some want to see the back of the EU. To give the UK

:03:23. > :03:29.more control over fishing, farming and immigration. In -- the EU is a

:03:30. > :03:34.catastrophe, it is undemocratic, commissioners ruling the

:03:35. > :03:38.bureaucracy, or that has no power, it is not a democratic organisation.

:03:39. > :03:44.We are not ruled by Parliament, we are ruled by property. Fresh from

:03:45. > :03:47.her television clash with Boris Johnson, a Scottish Tory leader

:03:48. > :03:53.argued this was not a referendum on border control. You are more likely

:03:54. > :03:57.to be treated at hospital by somebody from the EU land be behind

:03:58. > :04:01.them in the queue, you don't solve immigration by crushing the economy.

:04:02. > :04:08.Coming out of the EU will damage the economy. Tomorrow is not the date to

:04:09. > :04:13.cast a protest vote... In London, a final plea from Labour while on the

:04:14. > :04:18.doorsteps in former Scottish Labour heartlands, the last push to trade

:04:19. > :04:20.support for turn three. Jeffrey side wins, and this referendum the public

:04:21. > :04:29.and not politicians call the tune. On our relationship with the EU. If

:04:30. > :04:30.you think Scotland has heard a lot from politicians over the past

:04:31. > :04:32.couple of years, you are right. Voters here are being asked to make

:04:33. > :04:35.a choice for the fifth of the European Parliament, MPs,

:04:36. > :04:40.MSPs, and not least the question With another trip to the ballot box

:04:41. > :04:44.tomorrow, here's our political correspondent, Andrew Kerr,

:04:45. > :04:57.with a summary of the main issues It has been a tough fight

:04:58. > :05:02.controversial elements. The campaign has been characterised by some well

:05:03. > :05:06.worn arguments. Those wishing to remain in the EU have focused on the

:05:07. > :05:10.economy, they say a quarter of a million Scottish jobs are linked

:05:11. > :05:15.with EU trade and voting to leave, they say, would be catastrophic for

:05:16. > :05:22.the economy. Those who wish to leave take the opposite view. Calling the

:05:23. > :05:25.EU's system failing and dysfunctional, saying UK trade and

:05:26. > :05:30.jobs will thrive after a vote to leave. That side has a favourite

:05:31. > :05:35.topic. Immigration. You will be familiar with the phrase take back

:05:36. > :05:39.control. The belief is that we will not be able to control our borders

:05:40. > :05:44.or the level of immigration by staying in the EU and a number of

:05:45. > :05:49.people coming to the UK is putting a strain on public services. But the

:05:50. > :05:54.remain camps says immigration is good for the economy and a new deal

:05:55. > :05:59.means in work benefits for a new EU migrant worker will be limited for

:06:00. > :06:01.the first non-for years. For us in Scotland, this vote has a

:06:02. > :06:07.constitutional dimension. The Prime Minister urges vote to remain to

:06:08. > :06:12.save the UK while the first Minister, who wants independence,

:06:13. > :06:16.tax that vote also but she has warned that a second independence

:06:17. > :06:20.referendum could be triggered if the rest of the UK votes to leave the EU

:06:21. > :06:27.but Scotland does not. However, some who advocate Brexit want Scotland to

:06:28. > :06:33.remain in the UK while others want the UK out of the EU and Scotland

:06:34. > :06:36.out of the UK. Got it?! Votes will be cast tomorrow but as we have seen

:06:37. > :06:38.in Scotland, it might be up for debate whether a referendum actually

:06:39. > :06:41.settles any argument. I'm joined now by our political

:06:42. > :06:44.editor, Brian Taylor. Brian, Andrew mentioned

:06:45. > :06:48.the independence referendum. Is there a sense that many people

:06:49. > :06:51.here don't feel an emotional connection to this one compared

:06:52. > :07:04.to how they felt 18 months ago? That is possible, back in 2014 this

:07:05. > :07:13.referendum in Scotland has been even genteel, very few mass rallies, no

:07:14. > :07:17.street campaigns or street crowds. Very few having eggs thrown at them.

:07:18. > :07:22.But we should not allow that to mask the importance of this. For Scotland

:07:23. > :07:27.and the UK and the EU and noble interconnections. This is crucially

:07:28. > :07:33.important and every single vote in Scotland is every bit as valid as

:07:34. > :07:37.every single vote in England. Is it the case that some people will be

:07:38. > :07:41.voting tactically but for a myriad of reasons? Tactical voting is

:07:42. > :07:45.almost intrinsic in Scottish politics but there will be a range

:07:46. > :07:49.of reasons, some people might want to kick David Cameron out of Downing

:07:50. > :07:52.Street and some might want to give his rivals a bloody nose and in

:07:53. > :07:55.Scotland some will consider the impact upon the independence

:07:56. > :07:58.campaign either way and Nicola Sturgeon is aware of that and says

:07:59. > :08:04.that remaining is the best option in that regard but the thing to bear in

:08:05. > :08:09.mind is that they made all of this intrinsic, slightly subtle and

:08:10. > :08:11.nuanced feature, there will be tactical considerations pressing

:08:12. > :08:16.upon the brains of people but these are not on the ballot paper, it is

:08:17. > :08:21.simply remain or leave and the Scots vote was in the ad to those piles.

:08:22. > :08:24.Across the whole of the UK and consider those questions but perhaps

:08:25. > :08:29.bearing mind a court from Eleanor result used by Nicola Sturgeon in

:08:30. > :08:34.different context- do what you feel in your heart to be right, you will

:08:35. > :08:38.be criticised anyway. You will be covering this every step of the way.

:08:39. > :08:40.Now, in other news, the convicted drug smuggler Melissa Reid

:08:41. > :08:43.is returning to Scotland from Peru after being freed from jail in Lima.

:08:44. > :08:45.The 22-year-old, who's from Lenzie near Glasgow,

:08:46. > :08:48.has been expelled under an early release scheme for first

:08:49. > :09:03.It contains flash photography. Melissa Reid. The centre of media

:09:04. > :09:07.attention as she leaves Lima. Out of jail through an early release scheme

:09:08. > :09:11.for foreign prisoners. Every step taking her closer to the departure

:09:12. > :09:16.gate. Leaving her drug smuggling sentence behind her. Her father,

:09:17. > :09:21.Billy, was in Peru once more but this time to bring his daughter

:09:22. > :09:25.home. At the family house, this'll be a much hope for homecoming. It is

:09:26. > :09:30.almost three years since Melissa Reid was stopped at Lima airport

:09:31. > :09:34.with that consignment of cocaine. That is a situation that no parent

:09:35. > :09:40.wants to face. And this has been a very difficult episode for her

:09:41. > :09:43.family here. Mr Reid took part in an anti-drug smuggling film for the

:09:44. > :09:48.foreign office. They bear the heartache of the family. Events such

:09:49. > :09:55.as Christmas are nonexistent for us, there will be no celebrations. It

:09:56. > :09:56.was on August 20 13th that his daughter was stopped with

:09:57. > :09:59.was on August 20 13th that his Michaella McCollum from Northern

:10:00. > :10:03.was on August 20 13th that his Ireland with 11 kilos of cocaine in

:10:04. > :10:06.their luggage. Hidden inside food packets, they were heading for

:10:07. > :10:09.Spain. At first she protested her innocence, saying they were forced

:10:10. > :10:12.to carry the drugs but they later pled guilty, and receiving a

:10:13. > :10:18.sentence of six years and eight months. Today, at home, a range of

:10:19. > :10:24.views on her early release. Everybody deserves a second chance.

:10:25. > :10:27.She has done her time. Good on her. Six years should be six years

:10:28. > :10:32.because all it will do is give people the incentive to think, well,

:10:33. > :10:37.if I can get three years, it is worth it for the risk. I hope she

:10:38. > :10:41.has learned her lesson and she makes up to her parents for all the

:10:42. > :10:45.distress she has caused them. In 1983, Sandra Gregory from

:10:46. > :10:49.Aberdeenshire was in the headlines for trying to smuggle heroin out of

:10:50. > :10:53.Bangkok. She served sentence in Thailand and Britain using bad

:10:54. > :10:56.experience, she visits schools to educate the young women and says

:10:57. > :11:01.that Melissa Reid needs to come to terms with what she did and move on.

:11:02. > :11:05.My only advice to her Whitby, the honest. Apologise to the people you

:11:06. > :11:10.need to apologise to and maybe use honest. Apologise to the people you

:11:11. > :11:15.it for other people, I am getting the tooth to be going around schools

:11:16. > :11:20.so perhaps Melissa can do that for me. Whatever Melissa Reid decides to

:11:21. > :11:22.do in Scotland, because her crime was committed abroad, she will have

:11:23. > :11:24.no official criminal record. An offshore oil and gas company has

:11:25. > :11:27.announced up to 430 job losses Subsea Seven expects most of them

:11:28. > :11:33.to be from its Aberdeen operations, It plans to axe 1200

:11:34. > :11:39.roles worldwide, to leave The company is cutting more

:11:40. > :11:43.than ?200 million from its costs, and taking some ships out

:11:44. > :11:46.of its fleet. After giving up a dream life

:11:47. > :11:49.in the music industry to care for his mum,

:11:50. > :11:51.who had Alzheimers, Tommy Whitelaw has spent the last

:11:52. > :11:53.five years touring the country, listening to carers

:11:54. > :11:57.and advising professionals. Today he addressed hundreds

:11:58. > :11:59.of nurses at the Royal College Our health correspondent

:12:00. > :12:14.Eleanor Bradford has been For years, Tommy Whitelaw lived a

:12:15. > :12:23.hectic life in the music industry. He travelled the world but Kylie

:12:24. > :12:28.Minogue, the Spice Girls and U2. Then, his mother got dementia. I

:12:29. > :12:34.think it changed everything about our lives, it has changed me. People

:12:35. > :12:38.used to phone my mother and did not phone is often an people who would

:12:39. > :12:45.pop in for a cup of tea, and a chat, they did not pop in. And the

:12:46. > :12:49.loneliness and isolation has a massive impact on her health. Tommy

:12:50. > :12:54.struggled to cope on benefits and became isolated from family and

:12:55. > :13:01.friends. So he went on tour. This is where left for my walk. Around

:13:02. > :13:07.Scottish towns and cities. To take on the life stories of people. Tommy

:13:08. > :13:14.spoke to 52,000 people. He gave 474 talks. The latest was today. 200s of

:13:15. > :13:20.nurses at the Royal of nursing congress in Glasgow. It was a

:13:21. > :13:25.district nurse, she said, I am going to come here every Friday morning at

:13:26. > :13:31.ten o'clock, just to make sure both of you are OK. The most beautiful

:13:32. > :13:33.sentence my heart had ever heard in five and a half years of carrying

:13:34. > :13:39.sentence my heart had ever heard in former mother. Tommy's mum died in

:13:40. > :13:43.2012 but his campaign continues, to persuade everyone they can make a

:13:44. > :13:48.difference. Sometimes people think, what difference can five minutes

:13:49. > :13:51.make? But sometimes, the only person we saw over one month was when my

:13:52. > :13:55.mother went to the podiatrist with the clinic or nature, and somebody

:13:56. > :14:00.came to the house, so those conversations and moments left you

:14:01. > :14:04.up and make you think, I can get through tomorrow. Or they can knock

:14:05. > :14:08.you down. There are opportunities you had a knife that a lot of people

:14:09. > :14:11.would love to have. Working with those bands. Do you think you can go

:14:12. > :14:13.back to that? I am going to Thoughout the EU referendum campaign

:14:14. > :14:22.we've attempted to take the temperature of the debate up

:14:23. > :14:25.and down the country and our final stop tonight is the most westerly

:14:26. > :14:29.point of mainland Britain. There's been no great

:14:30. > :14:31.debate about immigration on the Ardnamurchan Peninsula

:14:32. > :14:34.because depopulation As Jackie O'Brien reports,

:14:35. > :14:39.more investment to keep people in the crofting

:14:40. > :14:54.community is a hot topic. The wild peninsula, from where

:14:55. > :15:00.Canada is the next stop across the Atlantic. This is the windswept

:15:01. > :15:04.Ardnamurchan lighthouse sitting on the most westerly point of the

:15:05. > :15:08.British mainland, a world away from where many decisions are made in

:15:09. > :15:11.Brussels, but people around here are determined to make their thoughts

:15:12. > :15:20.loud and clear as referendum day approaches. I think we forgotten

:15:21. > :15:27.about out here, living away here. This man was born and bred in a

:15:28. > :15:30.nearby village. A crofter, grass cutter and part-time firefighter, he

:15:31. > :15:33.depends heavily on agricultural subsidies that he believes more

:15:34. > :15:39.funding is needed to keep people in his community. The price of fuel

:15:40. > :15:45.here is a lot more than it is in the city, a lot more than in Fort

:15:46. > :15:51.William or Mole, and that is an island. But you've got to live here,

:15:52. > :15:54.you know. European development cash has paid for improvements to the

:15:55. > :15:59.single-track road into the village, but that isn't enough to sway the

:16:00. > :16:04.undecided voters here. Everybody should look at the wider picture.

:16:05. > :16:07.You just came down our roads today. They are a disgrace. A lot of

:16:08. > :16:13.farmers are going to leave because of the subsidies. People are

:16:14. > :16:17.frightened by what is going on and they are not too sure and they are

:16:18. > :16:22.thinking, it isn't going to get any worse, so should we just leave? But

:16:23. > :16:28.the recently restored castle has become a symbol of progress here.

:16:29. > :16:30.The luxury hotel is owned by businessman Donald Houston, who

:16:31. > :16:36.believes the EU could benefit from an overhaul. It is by no means

:16:37. > :16:41.ideal. It's hugely bureaucratic and undemocratic. But you can't change

:16:42. > :16:48.that if you are outside it, and being part of an economic union or

:16:49. > :16:52.an economic area, where we've got free trade and movement of people,

:16:53. > :16:57.is hugely important. Even up here, we wouldn't be able to run the

:16:58. > :17:01.holiday houses, the hotels would suffer. All the tourist attractions

:17:02. > :17:06.would suffer without Eastern European is the stuff they are a

:17:07. > :17:11.vital part of the community. See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil,

:17:12. > :17:17.the message resonating from the wise monkey statues. Some advice from

:17:18. > :17:18.Ardnamurchan perhaps to those accused of scaremongering on both

:17:19. > :17:20.sides of the debate. Let's get tonight's sport now

:17:21. > :17:23.and it's over to David. Everyone's talking about

:17:24. > :17:25.the Euro 2016 in France - including the Scotland manager

:17:26. > :17:27.Gordon Strachan. He says his Scotland

:17:28. > :17:29.team is better than some That's despite the fact the Scots

:17:30. > :17:35.didn't qualify. He says he's looking

:17:36. > :17:37.forward to the challenge of qualifying for the 2018 World Cup

:17:38. > :17:53.in Russia, which he He'd rather be in France but his

:17:54. > :17:57.team didn't make it to Euro 2016, so Gordon Strachan was in Aviemore

:17:58. > :18:02.promoting a novel sport of foot golf and putting a positive spin on

:18:03. > :18:07.Scotland's absence from the main event. At that tournament we are as

:18:08. > :18:15.are as good as and once that are poorer or better us. I know that if

:18:16. > :18:19.we got there, between the fans in ourselves and the players, we can

:18:20. > :18:23.make it a better tournament and it is just now. The captain of the

:18:24. > :18:27.national team is also doing homework, this time for Celtic's

:18:28. > :18:32.national team is also doing pre-season match against Leicester.

:18:33. > :18:36.He is of a similar mind. On our day, we have played Germany and Poland

:18:37. > :18:39.and challenged well. Ireland and Northern Ireland, we have given them

:18:40. > :18:45.great games in the last couple of years. Sturridge. Cahill couldn't

:18:46. > :18:52.get off the floor. It is there! England are level. Scotland will

:18:53. > :18:55.have a chance to prove themselves against two teams who qualified for

:18:56. > :19:01.Euro 2016 when the World Cup qualifiers begin in the autumn.

:19:02. > :19:06.England, probably. On the whole, I've probably got the best goal of

:19:07. > :19:11.the players. Maybe Spain, France, Slovakia eight a few times. They are

:19:12. > :19:16.strong. Physically strong. Good players. They are going to be hard.

:19:17. > :19:21.It's going to be a heck of a tournament. A heck of a qualifying

:19:22. > :19:26.session. We look forward to it. We'll find out how good Scotland are

:19:27. > :19:29.when the Russia 2018 campaign kicks off in September. That's the

:19:30. > :19:31.football, not the foot golf. Meanwhile the agent

:19:32. > :19:32.of Northern Ireland hero Michael McGovern has told BBC

:19:33. > :19:34.Scotland that clubs in the English Premier League

:19:35. > :19:37.want to sign the out of contract McGovern was in scintillating form

:19:38. > :19:41.against Germany last night - taking one for the team

:19:42. > :19:44.in the process - and if he does leave Hamilton, then Accies chairman

:19:45. > :19:59.Les Gray hopes it's not to join one That would be more difficult to

:20:00. > :20:05.take. If there isn't a move for Michael that is attractive enough

:20:06. > :20:08.for him to move away, then I think that in modern keys could be pushing

:20:09. > :20:09.the boat out as far as we can do match anything that anybody in

:20:10. > :20:10.Scotland could offer. The Scotland rugby captain

:20:11. > :20:13.Greig Laidlaw says the national team have adjusted well

:20:14. > :20:14.to the high-speed, high-stamina Vern Cotter's men have moved

:20:15. > :20:18.from Toyota City to Tokyo City ahead of Saturday's second

:20:19. > :20:34.and final test of the series, After their win last weekend, the

:20:35. > :20:40.Scots travelled in style to their new home in Tokyo. Hopping aboard

:20:41. > :20:45.the iconic 200 mile an hour bullet train, which whisked them across

:20:46. > :20:48.country. Tokyo has been a culture shock with 58 million people in the

:20:49. > :20:53.greater metropolitan area, and one road crossing where 2000 people

:21:26. > :21:33.converted a few more opportunities, if we had, we would have come out

:21:34. > :21:38.with a better scoreline. These games come as Japan gets ready to host the

:21:39. > :21:45.2019 Rugby World Cup. I went to meet the man in charge.

:21:46. > :21:48.TRANSLATION: We see the accommodation as a big challenge,

:21:49. > :21:56.especially here in Tokyo or in the neighbourhood area. If possible, of

:27:11. > :27:13.pressure across the country with some showers spreading in. Some of
