and on BBC One we now join the BBC's news teams where you are.

:00:00.:00:00.

A massive police investigation uncovers more than 30 million images

:00:00.:00:09.

of child sexual abuse and identifies over 500 victims.

:00:10.:00:15.

As half of the BHS stores in Scotland close their doors

:00:16.:00:18.

for the last time, we look at the impact on the high street

:00:19.:00:21.

They feel really betrayed, particularly when you see pictures

:00:22.:00:35.

in the paper of Philip Green and his wife sunning themselves on their

:00:36.:00:36.

yacht in the Mediterranean. Also on the programme,

:00:37.:00:38.

16 people contract E-coli What impact might the Scottish

:00:39.:00:40.

Government's plans to cut air passenger duty mean

:00:41.:00:45.

for Scottish tourism? Judo star Stephanie Inglis, injured

:00:46.:00:48.

in a Vietnam motorbike accident, is home from hospital

:00:49.:00:53.

and wants to compete again. And computer gamers converge

:00:54.:00:58.

on Glasgow, preparing to do virtual battle

:00:59.:01:00.

with each other. More than 30 million images

:01:01.:01:15.

depicting child sexual abuse have been uncovered in a massive

:01:16.:01:21.

Police Scotland investigation. Victims as young as three

:01:22.:01:24.

were identified in what police say

:01:25.:01:26.

is a growing problem. Our correspondent Lucy Adams

:01:27.:01:31.

reports. The dark side of the internet.

:01:32.:01:48.

Police Scotland say there is a massive increase in online child

:01:49.:01:52.

abuse. These individuals want to be wherever children are, so they are

:01:53.:01:57.

using websites, forums, chat rooms that children use. These men,

:01:58.:02:03.

predominantly, are using the profiles of children, pretending to

:02:04.:02:05.

be children effectively to communicate with younger children,

:02:06.:02:12.

to groom them online, to offend against them. In an unprecedented

:02:13.:02:18.

six-week operation earlier this summer, 547 devices were seized and

:02:19.:02:25.

examined. 523 child victims were identified, and more than 30 million

:02:26.:02:28.

indecent and child sexual abuse images were recovered, and there

:02:29.:02:34.

were 392 charges, including rape, sexual extortion and grooming. This

:02:35.:02:39.

is children being sexually abused, the images being shared, real

:02:40.:02:44.

victims in Scotland and elsewhere, and it is about these horrific acts

:02:45.:02:49.

that ruin peoples lives, and we need to make sure that stops. One

:02:50.:02:52.

computer at alone lead to the recovery of 10 million indecent

:02:53.:02:58.

images. Lycee it will take four full-time officers six months just

:02:59.:03:03.

to view them. -- police say. Another suspect had communicated with more

:03:04.:03:10.

than 110 children. As well as cracking down on crime online,

:03:11.:03:14.

police are keen to prevent online abuse from happening in the first

:03:15.:03:19.

place. Safety on the internet, how you keep yourself safe when you are

:03:20.:03:25.

online... These young people in Clydebank are learning how to

:03:26.:03:27.

protect themselves online. Many have Clydebank are learning how to

:03:28.:03:32.

been victims of cyber bullying. It is the side of the internet you do

:03:33.:03:36.

not know if it is going to stop, it did, but then it did not too long

:03:37.:03:42.

ago. But the best thing I done was actually talk to someone. I think it

:03:43.:03:46.

has went to that stage where no-one knows how to cope with it sometimes,

:03:47.:03:50.

whereas we have got groups like this that you can come to and talk with

:03:51.:03:54.

them, it is not like they are not going to help you a lot. Reputation,

:03:55.:04:01.

safety, responsibility... Police say the scale of the problem is far

:04:02.:04:05.

higher than previously thought. They are warning parents and children to

:04:06.:04:07.

be vigilant. This raises issues about social

:04:08.:04:07.

networking apps used by children. Absolutely. Unfortunately, it raises

:04:08.:04:21.

issues about all the online websites, apps and forums that young

:04:22.:04:28.

people used, evolving technology means that children and

:04:29.:04:30.

unfortunately perpetrators can access and stream information much

:04:31.:04:34.

more readily and more quickly than ever before. Now, Police Scotland

:04:35.:04:39.

say they have evolving technology themselves, and that is what they

:04:40.:04:42.

have been using as part of this operation. We know that they

:04:43.:04:48.

arrested, as you said, 77 men, most of them in Scotland. Of those, we

:04:49.:04:53.

know that six were registered sex offenders, four were people holding

:04:54.:04:57.

positions of trust. We also know that these men pretended, many of

:04:58.:05:01.

them, to be children on some of these apps and websites and forums

:05:02.:05:06.

in order to view young people into either meeting or other things. --

:05:07.:05:13.

lure. We know from what the police are saying that these forums are, in

:05:14.:05:17.

some cases our problem. They are saying be alert, don't be alarmed.

:05:18.:05:22.

The message for parents is that you need to be aware of what is going

:05:23.:05:26.

on, as do children, and police say they will continue to crack down

:05:27.:05:30.

both on the perpetrators and to run these educational programmes in

:05:31.:05:34.

order to keep children safe online. Lucy, thank you very much.

:05:35.:05:37.

This weekend, half of the BHS stores in Scotland

:05:38.:05:39.

The company has 16 stores across Scotland.

:05:40.:05:42.

Two, in Clydebank and Stirling, have closed already.

:05:43.:05:44.

Eight more are due to close this Sunday.

:05:45.:05:48.

Staff at the remaining stores are still waiting

:05:49.:05:52.

to find out how much longer they can stay open.

:05:53.:06:00.

to find out what impact the retailer's closure will have.

:06:01.:06:05.

It has been a fixture of this high street for decades, but now there is

:06:06.:06:12.

just one week and left for BHS in Ayr. This outlet, in the heart of

:06:13.:06:16.

the town for 32 years, was one of the worst performing stores, but

:06:17.:06:21.

locals say it will be missed. BHS is a mainstay of Ayr, it was a huge

:06:22.:06:26.

store, and a sad reflection of the town centre down here that another

:06:27.:06:30.

huge store is closing. It was the ideal place, you could go and have a

:06:31.:06:35.

cup of tea, meet up with friends. I think it will have a big effect, and

:06:36.:06:41.

it does all the different brands. A sad loss to Ayr, a tragedy. There

:06:42.:06:47.

are nearly 30 empty retail places and Ayr's high street alone, and the

:06:48.:06:51.

council is having to adapt. This doesn't look great, but we have Ayr

:06:52.:06:57.

renaissance, we are making every endeavour to improve the high

:06:58.:07:01.

street. However, we have to accept that the retail landscape is

:07:02.:07:04.

changing, it is a challenge when you lose such an important anchor shop,

:07:05.:07:10.

a large floor space, difficult to fill. It is not for me to speculate

:07:11.:07:15.

for its future. When a major retailer closes down, it leaves a

:07:16.:07:19.

void, and this size of store in the size of town is particularly

:07:20.:07:23.

difficult to fill. But it is about people, more than 500 jobs in

:07:24.:07:28.

Scotland lost, and in this case more than 20,000 pensions affected.

:07:29.:07:33.

Campaigner lane and helped launch the store back in the mid 1980s. It

:07:34.:07:40.

was really exciting, because there had not been a BHS in Ayr before,

:07:41.:07:43.

and everyone was looking forward to it. It is heartbreaking for the

:07:44.:07:47.

staff who were losing their jobs and facing potential cuts in their

:07:48.:07:52.

pensions in the future. They feel really betrayed, particularly when

:07:53.:07:56.

they see pictures in the paper of Philip Green and his wife sunning

:07:57.:08:00.

themselves on their yacht in the Mediterranean. The collapse of BA

:08:01.:08:07.

arrays as big questions about how companies' pension schemes are

:08:08.:08:10.

policed and also about the future of the high street. -- the collapse of

:08:11.:08:12.

BHS raises. And we'll have more from him

:08:13.:08:14.

on Monday, when he looks at what solutions there could be

:08:15.:08:17.

to filling the void Two batches of cheese

:08:18.:08:19.

are being recalled by a manufacturer in Lanarkshire after 16

:08:20.:08:22.

people contracted E-coli. Around 180 kilograms

:08:23.:08:27.

of the Dunsyre Blue cheese according to Food

:08:28.:08:33.

Standards Scotland. But its manufacturer says

:08:34.:08:36.

no link has been shown. I'm joined by our reporter

:08:37.:08:38.

Aileen Clarke. What more do we know about this?

:08:39.:08:48.

Well, 16 people have been confirmed as having contracted E-Coli 0157.

:08:49.:08:55.

Two adults are in hospital, two of the other cases are in England, but

:08:56.:09:00.

the rest are in Scotland, and I understand they are spread around

:09:01.:09:03.

seven health board areas, so fairly widespread. We are told the expert

:09:04.:09:07.

group investigating this outbreak believes there is a very strong link

:09:08.:09:12.

to Dusyre Blye cheese, made with an unpasteurised milk. A number of the

:09:13.:09:16.

people affected by E-coli have eaten it, which is why they are making

:09:17.:09:22.

this connection the cheeses produced in Lanarkshire, as you say, and this

:09:23.:09:26.

is their reaction to this food standards investigation. As a

:09:27.:09:33.

responsible company, we took voluntary decision last night to

:09:34.:09:38.

recall the two batches of cheese which they were concerned about. We

:09:39.:09:43.

have done that, so at the moment we are doing a lot of testing

:09:44.:09:49.

ourselves, an investigation to see whether there is, in fact, any

:09:50.:09:53.

evidence of a connection. Now, what is interesting, Sally, is that

:09:54.:09:57.

investigations are continuing into this, but the experts who are

:09:58.:10:00.

looking at it for the food standards people, you know, as far as they are

:10:01.:10:05.

concerned this cheese is the chief suspect, but it is interesting that

:10:06.:10:08.

most people affected have it in this cheese while they are in

:10:09.:10:11.

restaurants, because it is not generally sold in restaurants, -- in

:10:12.:10:18.

shops, it is hotels and delicatessens. If you have bought

:10:19.:10:21.

some of this cheese, if it is sitting in your fridge, if you have

:10:22.:10:25.

bought it since the 18th of May this year, basically, do not eat it, that

:10:26.:10:30.

is the basic advice. We have to remember that E-Coli can be fatal.

:10:31.:10:35.

As we know in Scotland, this can be very serious, especially if it

:10:36.:10:38.

affects the elderly or the very young, so it is treated very

:10:39.:10:42.

seriously indeed. Many people will remember the Lanark blue cheese that

:10:43.:10:47.

was linked to listeria in the 1990s, is this the same producer? That is

:10:48.:10:52.

right, the same producer went to court to actually stop an order that

:10:53.:10:56.

had been taken out on him by the local environmental health people

:10:57.:10:59.

because they wanted to destroy a massive batch of Lanarkshire blue

:11:00.:11:04.

cheese because of listeria, because they said there was far more found

:11:05.:11:10.

in it than should be there. But it was found, also, that nobody had got

:11:11.:11:14.

ill because of it, and in end he went to court, he kept the battle up

:11:15.:11:18.

and he won the case to save his cheese. But that was listeria. Here,

:11:19.:11:24.

E-Coli is taken very seriously, we do have people who have been

:11:25.:11:30.

affected here, and both the producer himself and the food experts are

:11:31.:11:33.

continuing their investigations to see if they can pin down further

:11:34.:11:35.

what has happened here. You're watching Reporting

:11:36.:11:39.

Scotland from the BBC. Still to come on tonight's

:11:40.:11:41.

programme: Police go undercover as they try to

:11:42.:11:51.

catch bikers driving dangerously on Scotland's roads.

One Commonwealth medal-winner's remarkable story.

:11:57.:11:57.

turning up the heat in the ru- in to Rio.

:11:58.:12:03.

The Scottish Government plan to cut air passenger duty could reduce

:12:04.:12:11.

the number of tourists who take a holiday in Scotland.

:12:12.:12:14.

That's according to some of the groups

:12:15.:12:16.

who've responded to a public consultation on the issue.

:12:17.:12:20.

But others say reducing the cost of flights will bring more visitors

:12:21.:12:23.

to Scotland and be a major boost to the economy.

:12:24.:12:25.

Our business correspondent David Henderson is here

:12:26.:12:30.

Anyone flying in and out of Scotland's main airports

:12:31.:12:33.

has to pay air passenger duty on top of the price of the flight.

:12:34.:12:37.

and it's set at different rates for different journeys.

:12:38.:12:44.

So if you fly short-haul to Europe this summer

:12:45.:12:47.

and you travel economy class, you pay an extra ?13.

:12:48.:12:53.

But a passenger on a long-haul flight pays far more - at least ?73.

:12:54.:12:57.

Double that if you're travelling business class.

:12:58.:13:02.

Now the Scottish Government wants to cut that tax in half.

:13:03.:13:10.

It is the busiest time of year at Scotland's airports as

:13:11.:13:17.

holiday-makers head for the sun, but they are paying a tax when they fly.

:13:18.:13:22.

As Holyrood gains new powers, air passenger duty will come under the

:13:23.:13:26.

control of the Scottish Government, and administers here wants to cut

:13:27.:13:30.

that tax and make it cheaper to fly to and from Scotland. -- ministers.

:13:31.:13:36.

Some business leaders say it is a good plan. The case is very clear

:13:37.:13:41.

for a reduction in APD, we have one of the highest rates in the world,

:13:42.:13:45.

and a signal to reduce that rate in Scotland would send out a massive

:13:46.:13:49.

boost to business in Scotland and send out a signal to the rest of the

:13:50.:13:53.

world that we are truly open for business. Not everyone agrees.

:13:54.:13:57.

Environmental groups say if more people fly, there will be more

:13:58.:14:01.

greenhouse gas and harm to the environment. And some are sceptical

:14:02.:14:11.

that this tax cut would boost the economy. We are not sure, for

:14:12.:14:14.

example, that if APD were cut, that the revenues that the Scottish

:14:15.:14:16.

Government might make from any increase in economic activity would

:14:17.:14:20.

compensate for the loss from air passenger duty, and then the

:14:21.:14:23.

consequence of that might be that other taxes would have to be raised.

:14:24.:14:27.

That looks like a gamble the Scottish Government is prepared to

:14:28.:14:30.

take as it bids to boost Scotland's links with the rest of the world.

:14:31.:14:33.

So there's no agreement on whether air passenger

:14:34.:14:35.

But ministers at Holyrood say they'll now push ahead

:14:36.:14:38.

For those of you making travel plans,

:14:39.:14:41.

The new tax takes effect in April 2018.

:14:42.:14:47.

We're told within three years the tax will be cut by 50%.

:14:48.:14:50.

And the Government wants to abolish the tax entirely

:14:51.:14:52.

Meanwhile, the Scottish Government wants to hear people's views

:14:53.:15:02.

as it prepares to launch its own social security system.

:15:03.:15:09.

Powers over some benefits are being moved from Westminster to Holyrood.

:15:10.:15:17.

We want to, in particular, hear from people who have that lived

:15:18.:15:24.

experience of the benefit system about how we can do things

:15:25.:15:28.

differently in Scotland, and how we can get it right for the 1.5 million

:15:29.:15:33.

people in Scotland who are currently in receipt of a carers benefit or a

:15:34.:15:36.

disability benefit. Workers on seven Shell installations

:15:37.:15:38.

involved in a dispute This week, members the Unite and RMT

:15:39.:15:42.

unions staged the first strike in response to a long-running row

:15:43.:15:49.

over pay and working patterns. The next strike will begin

:15:50.:15:53.

on Thursday morning. An unmarked police motorcycle will

:15:54.:15:58.

be on Scotland's roads this weekend, hoping to catch people who are

:15:59.:16:02.

driving dangerously on motorbikes. It's in response to a recent rise

:16:03.:16:06.

in the number of people killed in accidents involving motorbikes -

:16:07.:16:09.

nine already this summer - Gearing up to fight crime on

:16:10.:16:26.

Scotland's roads. Although these road policing officers might look

:16:27.:16:29.

familiar, one of them is trying not to stand out. This unMark motorcycle

:16:30.:16:36.

and the officer riding it is Police Scotland's latest attempt to bring

:16:37.:16:40.

down the number of accidents caused by dangerous riders. It will be

:16:41.:16:43.

deployed around the country, starting with the borders this

:16:44.:16:44.

weekend. Is a forward facing camera here and

:16:45.:16:58.

at the rear, rear facing camera. Police Scotland save this

:16:59.:17:01.

motorcycle's main purpose is not to catch people but to deter them.

:17:02.:17:06.

There are lots of motorcycle routes around Scotland was nice scenery and

:17:07.:17:09.

enjoyable routes. People from all over the world come, and with

:17:10.:17:14.

increased motorcycles and tourist activity, there is more hazards on

:17:15.:17:18.

the road. Evidence of dangerous riding or speeding will be played

:17:19.:17:21.

back to bikers on the spot. If necessary, it will be used as

:17:22.:17:25.

evidence. The public are not all in favour. At this bike shop,

:17:26.:17:30.

accusations of underhand tactics. I think it is a bit sneaky, targeting

:17:31.:17:41.

bikers. I question -- a question a lot of people have been coming to me

:17:42.:17:47.

with is weather the police are using their resources correctly. There is

:17:48.:17:50.

a big problem with motorcycle theft in Edinburgh. I think it is an

:17:51.:17:53.

incentive for people to be careful on the road. After years of

:17:54.:18:00.

declining motorcycle deaths, deaths are rising again. Police Scotland

:18:01.:18:02.

say it is time to apply the brakes. Let's go to David for the sport,

:18:03.:18:09.

and an amazing story of survival. A Commonweath Games medallist

:18:10.:18:12.

who was given a 1% chance of surviving after a road accident

:18:13.:18:14.

in Vietnam 11 weeks ago Glasgow 2014 silver-medal-winner

:18:15.:18:17.

Stephanie Inglis broke her neck in two places and suffered

:18:18.:18:21.

severe complications But now the judo player is vowing

:18:22.:18:23.

to return to the sport she loves. Every day she is getting steadier on

:18:24.:18:37.

her feet. Stephanie Inglis is still grateful to have her sister by her

:18:38.:18:40.

side during her recovery from an accident she does not remember. My

:18:41.:18:46.

first memory was waking up in Edinburgh Hospital. I remember

:18:47.:18:49.

waking up and thinking, what has happened? But luckily my mum and dad

:18:50.:18:52.

were there and they explained to me that I had been in a motorbike

:18:53.:18:55.

accident and they told me a lot that I had been in a motorbike

:18:56.:18:58.

about what had happened. That was probably the scariest thing, getting

:18:59.:19:02.

told what went wrong. Stephanie was teaching English in Vietnam when she

:19:03.:19:06.

was seriously injured on a taxi journey. The chances of survival

:19:07.:19:10.

were slim. Insurance problems meant she could not get the treatment she

:19:11.:19:13.

needed but a crowdfunding campaign started by a friend at home ensure

:19:14.:19:15.

that she did. I cannot believe that started by a friend at home ensure

:19:16.:19:21.

so many people came together for me and I am forever grateful because if

:19:22.:19:24.

it was not for them, I might not have had the money to get on and who

:19:25.:19:27.

knows, I might not be sitting talking to you. There are still

:19:28.:19:32.

plenty of support from friends and family as Stephanie continues her

:19:33.:19:35.

rehabilitation back home in Scotland. The pace of her recovery

:19:36.:19:39.

has been surprising even to those closest to her. I had a strange

:19:40.:19:45.

dream last night that we were all still fighting for her life, and it

:19:46.:19:50.

is just crazy that I had that dream last night and she is actually

:19:51.:19:52.

getting to go home. It is unbelievable. Having won her biggest

:19:53.:19:56.

battle, Stephanie is still full of unbelievable. Having won her biggest

:19:57.:20:02.

fight. The goal was always to get back into the normal way of life.

:20:03.:20:06.

Judo is normal for me and I have done it since I was four. Not being

:20:07.:20:10.

able to do judo, it would not be my normal life. At the end of the year,

:20:11.:20:14.

I will look to get back into the sport, doing some training, to get

:20:15.:20:20.

my life back. She may never win another Commonwealth medal, but

:20:21.:20:24.

there is one competition she says that she is sure to win. I know you

:20:25.:20:27.

have been threatening to take on your sister once you get back on

:20:28.:20:32.

your feet... She is a bit too much. She does my head in. She is going to

:20:33.:20:41.

get battered on the judo M80. -- judo M80.

:20:42.:20:45.

It's exactly a week to the opening ceremony of the Rio Olympics,

:20:46.:20:48.

and Scottish athletes are doing all they can to get

:20:49.:20:50.

And for Marathon runner Callum Hawkins, that means trying

:20:51.:20:53.

to re-create the kind of climate he'll be running in while in Rio.

:20:54.:20:57.

Heading to the Rio Olympics but for this apparatus is not just about

:20:58.:21:06.

being in Pete condition. But also coping with the conditions. We have

:21:07.:21:15.

looked at the potential conditions but we are trying to sample the

:21:16.:21:19.

extremes, the committee, and the mountain aspect. Knowing that he has

:21:20.:21:23.

done this on a number of occasions before the big day is really

:21:24.:21:27.

important. And he is the best British athlete in the London

:21:28.:21:35.

Marathon in 2016. He has booked his place in Rio with an impressive

:21:36.:21:39.

showing in this year's London Marathon, and joins his brother in

:21:40.:21:44.

an all Scottish marathon squad. They will take in some of Brazil's most

:21:45.:21:48.

iconic landmarks while competing in the marathon, but under contesting

:21:49.:21:56.

-- under testing conditions. It is always a very hot in this heat

:21:57.:21:59.

chamber but it is also very humid. It is just so sticky in here. From

:22:00.:22:04.

my point of view, I am starting to go already, to put it politely, and

:22:05.:22:06.

my point of view, I am starting to that is without doing any exercise.

:22:07.:22:10.

But for Callan, he has been on the treadmill for half an hour. Usually

:22:11.:22:17.

the humidity is the killer, the slow killer. It is not just

:22:18.:22:23.

acclimatisation, it is getting used to it mentally and knowing that this

:22:24.:22:30.

is normal. No panic, and no surprises that when it comes -- no

:22:31.:22:34.

surprises when it comes to running in Rio.

:22:35.:22:40.

Not quite so much perspiration around for golfer Catriona Matthew,

:22:41.:22:43.

but her peparations for the Olympics seem to be going well.

:22:44.:22:45.

She scored a second round of seven under par at the British

:22:46.:22:48.

Matthew now two shots behind the leader.

:22:49.:22:52.

But even at the halfway stage of a Major, Rio

:22:53.:22:55.

Growing up, I never thought I would be in an Olympics so it has been a

:22:56.:23:01.

gold mine for the last couple of years to make the team. It will

:23:02.:23:04.

probably be my only chance, where I am in my career. I was delighted to

:23:05.:23:07.

make it and I cannot wait to go. I'm going to go down

:23:08.:23:08.

a few days early to watch some other things. The Olympics next week. I

:23:09.:23:12.

can't wait. A big gaming festival was being held

:23:13.:23:21.

in Glasgow this weekend, a chance for gamers across the country to see

:23:22.:23:23.

the latest releases and battle it out against each other. Our reporter

:23:24.:23:27.

has been joining in. From first person shooters to the latest in

:23:28.:23:33.

augmented reality, and even Pokemon that you can touch, what has been

:23:34.:23:39.

billed as Scotland's first major gaming festival has already

:23:40.:23:42.

attracted hundreds of gamers from across the country. Forget about the

:23:43.:23:46.

idea of the loan game are locked away in his bedroom, this festival

:23:47.:23:49.

is proof that gaming is a massive social event. Everyone is here to

:23:50.:23:59.

meet each other and join in. We're all friends and Wii game together.

:24:00.:24:02.

There are not many conventions like in Glasgow. There is no better team

:24:03.:24:09.

game than football. These guys are playing Fifa 16 for fun. But the

:24:10.:24:13.

organisers here usually put on these tournaments for big money. We had a

:24:14.:24:19.

Counterstrike event a few months ago with a $25,000 prize. There is

:24:20.:24:22.

deftly a lot of money involved if you are the best of the best. We got

:24:23.:24:29.

loads of money from that! Don't worry, they are not playing for real

:24:30.:24:32.

money but even the youngest gamers who come here know what they want. I

:24:33.:24:43.

like Titanfall. Titanfall is a really good game. I like Star Wars

:24:44.:24:48.

Battlefront. They all have some sort of gun. No guns in Pokemon. Here at

:24:49.:24:56.

the festival's retro arcade, games from more than 20 years ago are

:24:57.:25:00.

proving surprisingly popular. It is quite surreal because obviously

:25:01.:25:04.

these kids have grown up and they have never held one of these

:25:05.:25:07.

controllers. So they come here and they say, I want to see what Mariel

:25:08.:25:11.

was like in 1980. And they still walk away learning something about

:25:12.:25:14.

the origins of gaming. It is wonderful. Far from being a young

:25:15.:25:20.

person's pursuit, games really can bridge the generational divide.

:25:21.:25:24.

Let's see what we can expect from the weekend weather.

:25:25.:25:26.

Good evening. Kind of repetitive weather patterns this weekend but

:25:27.:25:37.

actually, we have seen some lovely sunshine to end the day. There is a

:25:38.:25:41.

picture from one of our weather watchers of Arran. Beautiful

:25:42.:25:45.

sunshine. It looks like the Mediterranean. As far as the ceiling

:25:46.:25:49.

is concerned, it would be a dry picture for most of us. But we have

:25:50.:25:53.

a fair number of showers over the north-east, blowing into

:25:54.:25:59.

Aberdeenshire. We will continue to see showers feeding into the North

:26:00.:26:03.

West and the Northern Isles. Overnight lows of around 10 Celsius.

:26:04.:26:10.

It will feel cooler in lowland parts. Low pressure staying with us

:26:11.:26:13.

for the weekend. Generating a fair amount of showery activity. Also, a

:26:14.:26:20.

cold air stream. Actually, and this will be the case throughout the

:26:21.:26:24.

weekend, tomorrow starts on a dry, sunny note. Showers in the North

:26:25.:26:29.

from first light, and we will see showers developing further south.

:26:30.:26:32.

But I still think the emphasis will be on dry weather. Good sunny spells

:26:33.:26:36.

for the south-west as we head into the and also in the likes of entire

:26:37.:26:46.

and the Hebrides, highs of 18 or 19. Something brighter for mole, towards

:26:47.:26:51.

the north-west. Symantec as well. Showers for the Western Isles,

:26:52.:26:59.

feeding into the North West. -- Skye as well. It will feel cool. We will

:27:00.:27:04.

see showers for Northern Aberdeenshire, brighter spells for

:27:05.:27:07.

most of us. The emphasis will be on dry weather. If you're heading for

:27:08.:27:12.

the hills, southern and Eastern ranges, you will see passing showers

:27:13.:27:18.

that will move through quickly. It will feel cold, but with good

:27:19.:27:23.

visibility. For Northwestern Rangers, will see frequent showers,

:27:24.:27:29.

and a strong north-westerly wind coupled with temperatures of five

:27:30.:27:33.

Celsius. It will feel more like winter than summer. Further south,

:27:34.:27:37.

fewer showers but it will feel really cool at the top. Still a

:27:38.:27:41.

number of showers initially in the evening time but it will die away

:27:42.:27:45.

with some sunshine to end the day. Those showers staying with us in the

:27:46.:27:50.

north. As we head into Sunday, the same repetitive story with showers

:27:51.:27:54.

for the north and West. Drier interludes with sunny spells coming

:27:55.:27:57.

through. On Monday, we do it all again. That is your forecast.

:27:58.:28:05.

I'll be back with the headlines at 8pm and the late bulletin just

:28:06.:28:10.
