:01:09. > :01:16.council roads are poorly maintained, and spending on road maintenance has
:01:17. > :01:34.fallen between 2011 and 2015. Every single road, there are
:01:35. > :01:38.potholes. June has been a career in Edinburgh for 32 years. It's not
:01:39. > :01:45.very good coming onto this road in the morning after you have had your
:01:46. > :01:54.breakfast. With a fleet of vans, motorcycles and bicycles, bumpy
:01:55. > :01:58.roads are bad for business. I have had crystal, bottles, and every
:01:59. > :02:04.road, you are petrified in case something gets broken or the samples
:02:05. > :02:07.leak. Today's report shows over a third of council roads need repairs,
:02:08. > :02:14.with trunk roads and motorways also deteriorating. This car has been
:02:15. > :02:20.driving into town, went down a pothole, and it has damaged this
:02:21. > :02:23.part. And this is where the cost of poor roads is felt. As you can see,
:02:24. > :02:29.broken off at the end. Scotland has poor roads is felt. As you can see,
:02:30. > :02:35.the worst record for pothole damage in the UK. During the week, we
:02:36. > :02:42.change approximately a dozen coil springs. It is very common. Scotland
:02:43. > :02:46.has 56,000 kilometres of roads. Most, like this one, are managed by
:02:47. > :02:51.local authorities. They're spending has gone down 14%, but when it comes
:02:52. > :02:57.to trunk roads and motorways, in England spending is 25 times higher
:02:58. > :03:02.than it is in Scotland. It is a huge issue of concern to the public. 57%
:03:03. > :03:06.of the public in the Scottish household survey indicated
:03:07. > :03:11.dissatisfaction with the state of the roads. The local authority
:03:12. > :03:17.organisation say they are doing well, despite stretched finances. I
:03:18. > :03:22.would not argue that our roads are perfect, but in the last three
:03:23. > :03:26.years, the roads being looked after by local authorities have stayed
:03:27. > :03:31.stable and have not got worse. At a time of austerity and less money for
:03:32. > :03:36.councils, that is a good result. The government says it is listening. The
:03:37. > :03:42.state of the roads is a priority for us. We have invested ?6.5 billion
:03:43. > :03:46.which we had not invested since 2007. We are investing in major
:03:47. > :03:52.infrastructure projects. Where the report says we can do more, we will
:03:53. > :03:53.look to do that. But with more and more roads showing signs of
:03:54. > :03:57.disrepair, it appears that money more roads showing signs of
:03:58. > :03:59.will have to be found to keep motorists satisfied.
:04:00. > :04:01.Let's go to our local government correspondent,
:04:02. > :04:05.Jamie, given that council budgets are tight, can anything be done
:04:06. > :04:20.That is an important part of this story. Councils tend to spend money
:04:21. > :04:26.filling in potholes when it is an issue. There is a big pothole here.
:04:27. > :04:31.In an ideal world, many would accept that it would be better to change
:04:32. > :04:33.the emphasis to spending more on preventative work to stop the
:04:34. > :04:36.potholes from appearing in the first place and keep the roads in good
:04:37. > :04:40.condition. The problem with doing that is that it can be more
:04:41. > :04:43.expensive to begin with, even if it proves to be better value in the
:04:44. > :04:45.long term. That is a big issue at a proves to be better value in the
:04:46. > :04:49.time when budgets are tight. The other question is whether the system
:04:50. > :04:55.for maintaining local roads could be better. At the moment, each council
:04:56. > :05:00.decides for itself how much it needs to spend on local road maintenance.
:05:01. > :05:03.Really all of them have their own separate road departments. One
:05:04. > :05:07.question is whether there could be more regional coordination. Another
:05:08. > :05:11.question is whether you could see shared services to try to cut the
:05:12. > :05:13.overheads and spend more on the roads. Again, that means spending
:05:14. > :05:16.more. This is not an easy to solve. A fisherman whose body was recovered
:05:17. > :05:20.from a loch in Orkney yesterday has been named by police as 71-year-old
:05:21. > :05:23.Andrew Livingstone. He was found after a search
:05:24. > :05:39.operation involving coastguard, Andrew Livingstone stayed just a few
:05:40. > :05:42.miles down the road from the board house loch, where he and brother
:05:43. > :05:47.Boyd had come to fish on Tuesday evening. The search was launched
:05:48. > :05:50.early yesterday afternoon and by late afternoon, Mr Livingstone's
:05:51. > :05:54.body had been recovered from the loch as well as the small boat the
:05:55. > :05:58.pair had been on. That search effort has continued today. Members of the
:05:59. > :06:02.local community have been assisting police and coastguard teams to try
:06:03. > :06:07.and locate Boyd Livingstone. The pair were well known on the local
:06:08. > :06:10.angling circuit. They were very experienced by all accounts, and
:06:11. > :06:16.liked to go out on the loch to fish for brown trout. They lived in a
:06:17. > :06:17.nearby area, a small village, a community tonight which has been
:06:18. > :06:19.rocked by these events. At least one Scot has been caught up
:06:20. > :06:23.in an attack on foreign tourists They were among 12 travellers
:06:24. > :06:26.ambushed while on their way Six were injured, as well
:06:27. > :06:40.as an Afghan driver. The aftermath of a brutal attack in
:06:41. > :06:44.Herat province in the north-west corner of Afghanistan. The targets -
:06:45. > :06:51.an international group of travellers who had chosen to go there, despite
:06:52. > :06:52.the danger. One news agency reports a spokesman for the local Governor
:06:53. > :07:10.saying: 12 foreigners were travelling. Among
:07:11. > :07:16.the 12, there were Americans, British, a Scot. And now I have got
:07:17. > :07:19.a picture from the scene from a local journalist. When you see this
:07:20. > :07:23.picture, the minibus is totally destroyed. They were very lucky to
:07:24. > :07:26.escape this attack. It is understood that the group had been in Darmian
:07:27. > :07:29.escape this attack. It is understood and may have been on their way to
:07:30. > :07:34.the city of Herat when they were attacked. It may seem unlikely, but
:07:35. > :07:36.search the internet and there are companies offering holidays in
:07:37. > :07:42.Afghanistan. This business, based in west Yorkshire, has a group in the
:07:43. > :07:46.area where the attack happened at the moment. I have been trying to
:07:47. > :07:50.contact them to get a comment. On their website, they say that some
:07:51. > :07:53.will regard it as premature to go to Afghanistan, given the continued
:07:54. > :07:59.conflict there and a lack of effective government control. But,
:08:00. > :08:03.they say, tourists going to Afghanistan and spending money there
:08:04. > :08:09.is a way of bringing direct benefit to local people, many of whom are
:08:10. > :08:13.still desperately poor. The Foreign Office has confirmed that it is
:08:14. > :08:17.providing assistance to British nationals involved in the attack in
:08:18. > :08:23.Herat, and is coordinating closely with local authorities. It is a
:08:24. > :08:29.dilemma. The hope is that tourism, money and jobs may freeze out the
:08:30. > :08:32.violence, but perhaps today's use shows that they react to that by
:08:33. > :08:37.proving that they can strike anywhere.
:08:38. > :08:39.The Government says there's no public health risk in Scotland
:08:40. > :08:44.It follows the news that a small number of people have been diagnosed
:08:45. > :08:48.More than 50 people across the UK have been treated for the infection,
:08:49. > :08:50.which is associated with severe birth defects in babies.
:08:51. > :08:57.This is what the Chief Medical Officer had to say.
:08:58. > :09:05.There is no health risk to the general public. The virus is
:09:06. > :09:08.transmitted by a mosquito and there are no mosquitoes in Scotland, but
:09:09. > :09:13.because our climate is too cold. There is a very small risk of sexual
:09:14. > :09:16.transmission, and people who have been infected are advised very
:09:17. > :09:17.carefully about how to minimise transmission to sexual partners.
:09:18. > :09:20.Just before we came on air, I spoke to Dr Mario Stevenson.
:09:21. > :09:23.Born in Airdrie and now living in Miami, he's one of the world's
:09:24. > :09:26.leading infectious disease researchers and is at the forefront
:09:27. > :09:32.of the global battle against the Zika virus.
:09:33. > :09:38.Dr Stevenson, we have been assured there is no public health risk in
:09:39. > :09:45.Scotland from the small number of confirmed cases. It couldn't be
:09:46. > :09:50.clearer. Are we and the world overreacting to Zika? I think the
:09:51. > :09:55.response in Scotland is spot on. There is no risk to the population.
:09:56. > :10:01.The situation is different in terms of women who are planning pregnancy.
:10:02. > :10:06.The message is clear - stay away from regions where Zika is endemic,
:10:07. > :10:13.protect yourself. And if you can avoid travel to those areas, do so.
:10:14. > :10:17.It is not worth the risk. You are investigating this all the time.
:10:18. > :10:22.What is your biggest worry as you wrestle with it? We don't want to be
:10:23. > :10:26.complacent. We want to put the risks in perspective. It is up to
:10:27. > :10:32.scientists and public health officials to be responsible and not
:10:33. > :10:37.exaggerate the situation or frighten the population. But at the same
:10:38. > :10:42.time, I keep repeating myself, we hope for the best, but we prepare
:10:43. > :10:45.for the worst. Six months ago, the Governor of Florida declared a state
:10:46. > :10:50.of emergency in Florida. People thought that was an overreaction to
:10:51. > :10:54.the possibility that Zika could spread in Florida. Now we have 14
:10:55. > :11:03.cases of local infection, individuals who contacted the virus
:11:04. > :11:11.in Miami. So that was the right message. My fear is that we want to
:11:12. > :11:19.hit that sweet spot of being cautious, but not over extending the
:11:20. > :11:27.fear of Zika infection. It is serious for pregnant women, but for
:11:28. > :11:30.everybody else? For most people, you would not know you were infected.
:11:31. > :11:34.There are no symptoms. So to the general public, there is no risk,
:11:35. > :11:39.but to the pregnant woman, the situation is grave. That cannot be
:11:40. > :11:43.overstated. And no danger from midges? No danger from midges,
:11:44. > :11:45.correct, other than the nuisance they always present at picnics.
:11:46. > :11:46.Thank you very much. An elderly man has been rescued
:11:47. > :11:52.by firefighters after becoming stranded on an island
:11:53. > :11:55.in the River Don at Inverurie. He was walking his dogs at the time,
:11:56. > :11:59.and they were also taken to safety. A specialist fire service water
:12:00. > :12:02.rescue team was deployed to bring The man is not thought to have been
:12:03. > :12:07.hurt, and the dogs were looked "Insensitive and offensive" -
:12:08. > :12:13.that's how the makers of the global gaming craze Pokemon Go
:12:14. > :12:18.are being described after they sited an animated character on a memorial
:12:19. > :12:20.to offshore workers who died The group who maintain
:12:21. > :12:38.the Piper Alpha statue and garden It's the latest craze. Pokemon, a
:12:39. > :12:43.virtual game, the aim to capture animated characters that pop up on
:12:44. > :12:47.your smartphone and local landmarks. Just grew up playing the games, and
:12:48. > :12:53.I have gone back to being a 12-year-old. It's really fun, and it
:12:54. > :12:57.makes you get out and about. Pokemon and his friends are popping up all
:12:58. > :13:03.over the place, but are not always welcome. What do you think when you
:13:04. > :13:09.see this? I suppose it's the future, but as far as I am concerned, I
:13:10. > :13:15.don't think it has a place here. 167 men died in the Piper Alpha disaster
:13:16. > :13:20.in 1988. This memorial was created for their loved ones. For the
:13:21. > :13:24.families, their friends and people associated with Aberdeen, this is a
:13:25. > :13:28.place of reflection and remembrance. The last thing that everybody wants
:13:29. > :13:36.connected to this monument is to have hordes of people basically
:13:37. > :13:41.fussing around the site, looking for these virtual Pokemon characters.
:13:42. > :13:47.Those concerns are shared by others. There are a lot of silly places. A
:13:48. > :13:56.crazy idea that people who come here to look for a Pokemon on top of the
:13:57. > :14:00.statue. I would say it is inappropriate. And it's not just
:14:01. > :14:05.there that the game has been causing distress. Nearby, this baby 's
:14:06. > :14:09.memorial garden has also had a Pokemon character. The charity has
:14:10. > :14:13.been in contact with the game makers, asking them to remove it.
:14:14. > :14:18.Game makers Nintendo have also had requests to remove Pokemon
:14:19. > :14:19.characters from the Hiroshima peace Memorial Park and Auschwitz. The
:14:20. > :14:22.company has yet to comment. In the summer of 1971,
:14:23. > :14:24.Scots watching television had their viewing interrupted
:14:25. > :14:26.by a four-minute video of water The video - unannounced
:14:27. > :14:33.and unexplained - was in fact a work of art,
:14:34. > :14:36.one of a number made by artists placed in organisations
:14:37. > :14:39.around the country. Now an exhibition at
:14:40. > :14:41.the Edinburgh Fringe is celebrating the work
:14:42. > :14:43.of the Artist Placement Group. Our arts correspondent
:14:44. > :14:56.Pauline McLean reports. This installation is a work by David
:14:57. > :15:01.hall. In a gallery in Edinburgh, it's easy to see David hall's TV
:15:02. > :15:05.interruptions as artworks. But when he first made them in the summer of
:15:06. > :15:10.1971 during a placement as an artist with Scottish television, it was a
:15:11. > :15:15.lot less obvious. Viewers switched on their TVs to see this, four
:15:16. > :15:23.minutes of a tap running, with no explanation. David hall observed
:15:24. > :15:27.different examples of people acting rather surprised, but there was
:15:28. > :15:30.another example where he went into a local shop and told staff that a
:15:31. > :15:33.piece of his work was now on television, then he had to go out
:15:34. > :15:38.through the back door because they were getting really aggressive and
:15:39. > :15:41.reacting not very positively to it. Hall was one of a number of artists
:15:42. > :15:45.embedded with British companies as part of the Artist Placement Group.
:15:46. > :15:51.As well as Scottish television, others worked with British steel and
:15:52. > :15:54.even the Scottish office. John Latham, who worked there, even had
:15:55. > :16:01.his own office where he focused on the post-industrial landscape. These
:16:02. > :16:06.waste tips were works of art to him in their own right. His widow
:16:07. > :16:11.Barbara was the driving force behind the APG, writing hundreds of letters
:16:12. > :16:15.to request placements. The thing we negotiated with these organisations
:16:16. > :16:21.was the open brief that they wouldn't know, that they would take
:16:22. > :16:26.us on and we would not be required to say what we were going to do. So
:16:27. > :16:31.it was a risk initiative, and a lot of people don't want to take risk.
:16:32. > :16:37.At the time, artists were also thought of as painter or sculptor.
:16:38. > :16:40.The exhibition celebrates the legacy of those artists who wanted to make
:16:41. > :16:45.art and everyday experience, and perhaps offers an explanation to
:16:46. > :16:47.those who switched on their TV in the 1970s and were baffled by what
:16:48. > :16:55.they saw. Only to our own special artwork,
:16:56. > :16:59.David. Celtic's manager Brendan Rodgers
:17:00. > :17:01.is urging fans to be patient and to trust the players
:17:02. > :17:03.as they try to make it After beating Astana in a tense
:17:04. > :17:07.encounter, Celtic are one round away from the group stage,
:17:08. > :17:10.and now know the five potential opponents waiting
:17:11. > :17:26.in tomorrow's draw. Supporters are often described as
:17:27. > :17:32.being the 12th man, inspiring players to great things. Celtic's
:17:33. > :17:34.and claim some credit for their team's latest triumph. The first
:17:35. > :17:42.goal came from the penalties spot. goal came from the penalties spot.
:17:43. > :17:47.-- penalty spot. Griffith gave them the lead. This exceptional equaliser
:17:48. > :17:51.made for a night of high anxiety in the stands. The stress levels eased
:17:52. > :18:00.only in stoppage time. Another penalty. And another goal. The
:18:01. > :18:03.French ban's first for the club, earning them a place in the final
:18:04. > :18:09.qualifying round while supporters earning them a place in the final
:18:10. > :18:13.and a mild rebuke. They were unbelievable tonight. I think they
:18:14. > :18:18.need to show patience as well. I am a Celtic supporter. I know what they
:18:19. > :18:23.want. I know how desperately they wanted. They put players on edge at
:18:24. > :18:28.times full stop instead of having the edginess, trust the players. A
:18:29. > :18:32.little patience is also required a Celtic supporters wait to find at
:18:33. > :18:39.who they will play in the next round. Finding out tomorrow if it is
:18:40. > :18:47.dynamo so grab or a Bulgarian team, FC Copenhagen, Dundalk from Ireland
:18:48. > :18:51.or an Israeli side. Supporters know what the manager expects.
:18:52. > :18:56.It's 1-1 from the first leg, as both clubs aim for
:18:57. > :18:59.But they do so in trying circumstances, as
:19:00. > :19:18.A small memorial outside Maribor's Stadium. The Aberdeen manager laid
:19:19. > :19:25.this tribute to the two young players who died. People deal with
:19:26. > :19:35.things in different ways. We want to block it out and focus on the game.
:19:36. > :19:40.It may play a part in their minds. It gives them a boost in a way, to
:19:41. > :19:43.try harder to win the game. The sympathies of these Aberdeen fans
:19:44. > :19:50.will give way at kick-off time to a fervent desire to see their own
:19:51. > :19:57.team, on top. Maribor hold a slight advantage. They scored an away goal
:19:58. > :20:02.in the 1-1 draw. That means Aberdeen have to score to get any chance of
:20:03. > :20:06.progressing. They will need to do that without the injured Johnny
:20:07. > :20:10.Hayes. He has been a big part of Aberdeen performance going forward.
:20:11. > :20:19.It will be a tricky situation trying to replace him. Possibly they will
:20:20. > :20:23.shuffle around the pack and go with one up front instead of the two that
:20:24. > :20:29.worked so well last week. We'll be interesting to see what Derek does.
:20:30. > :20:33.One other factor to content with in this pretty Slovenian town is the
:20:34. > :20:36.searing heat. Temperatures were around 30 degrees this afternoon and
:20:37. > :20:38.forecasts still to be in the mid-20s this evening.

:20:55. > :21:05.Last night was amazing. I was just getting into bed at about 11:15pm. I
:21:06. > :21:12.was in my pants. Our team leader came and said we need to speak to
:21:13. > :21:17.you. I'd jumped out of bed, ran downstairs. I was speechless. I did
:21:18. > :21:24.not know what to say. I was repeating myself, I think, a knot,
:21:25. > :21:29.saying how honoured I was. -- honoured.
