:00:27. > :00:34.Nicola Sturgeon argued the top priority was to maintain access to

:00:35. > :00:38.the European single market in goods and services. Political opponents

:00:39. > :00:47.challenged her to drop her back-up plan for an independence referendum.

:00:48. > :00:51.Nicola Sturgeon in Edinburgh, in search of common ground. I think

:00:52. > :00:59.there is a real opportunity to present to the UK Government a

:01:00. > :01:03.unified Scottish position. And all Scotland coalition of politicians,

:01:04. > :01:08.businesses, universities, and a whole range of others to resist a

:01:09. > :01:19.hard Brexit. The aim to put weight behind Scotland's demand to stay in

:01:20. > :01:26.the single market. There is a high risk that these companies will go to

:01:27. > :01:31.other parts of Europe. It is important to retain a Scottish

:01:32. > :01:37.identity and to retain some form of focus on Scotland in the single

:01:38. > :01:45.market. There is real anxiety as well. I don't care if you are male,

:01:46. > :01:52.female or kangaroo, I just want certainty, so I can give that to my

:01:53. > :01:56.staff. This matters. Scotland trades heavily with the EU. An

:01:57. > :02:01.staff. This matters. Scotland trades report reckoned Brexit could cost up

:02:02. > :02:09.to 80,000 Scottish jobs. Yellow macro and the issue of clarity in

:02:10. > :02:13.relation to Brexit... The Prime Minister says she understands. What

:02:14. > :02:22.might happen? A single market consists currently of the EU member

:02:23. > :02:27.states, plus Iceland, Lichtenstein and Norway, surviving members of the

:02:28. > :02:33.free trade Association. Switzerland has access to the market through

:02:34. > :02:38.multiple treaties. The Swiss have now voted for migrant quotas and

:02:39. > :02:42.some question them membership. All members of the market of full,

:02:43. > :02:52.autonomous states, not like Scotland. EU legal experts spell it

:02:53. > :02:56.out. That poses a challenge for Scotland. The starting point he

:02:57. > :03:02.says, would be to get UK Government on side. Scotland needs new powers

:03:03. > :03:07.under the devolution settlement, not only to sign up to an organisation

:03:08. > :03:13.might this but to be able to comply with all the rules the organisation

:03:14. > :03:17.has, such as rules on product standards, rules on financial

:03:18. > :03:23.services and rules on immigration. Doctor Locke stresses anything is

:03:24. > :03:29.possible if the will was there. Green and was allowed to leave the

:03:30. > :03:40.EU, while remaining part of Denmark. Could the Scotland answer lie here?

:03:41. > :03:47.Belgium has a limited access to free trade. If the Belgian provinces --

:03:48. > :03:52.be Belgian provinces are not in the single market. That is reserved to

:03:53. > :03:55.Belgium. This sort of conundrum might appeal to wear name and greet,

:03:56. > :04:02.the surrealist artist. Meanwhile fishing industry leaders

:04:03. > :04:04.in Scotland say they're encouraged by talks they've held in London

:04:05. > :04:07.with the UK government on the opportunities and challenges

:04:08. > :04:09.presented by Brexit. The organisation, which campaigned

:04:10. > :04:11.for a Leave vote in June's referendum, says control over

:04:12. > :04:13.British waters will bring huge potential benefits

:04:14. > :04:19.to Scottish fishing. We have a very strong handfuls that

:04:20. > :04:26.that is completely understood by the Secretary of State. We are asking

:04:27. > :04:30.both governments for us in Scottish fishing, both relevant governance,

:04:31. > :04:32.to work together on this. This is one of the best patches of maritime

:04:33. > :04:39.real estate in the world. A campaign's growing to cut speed

:04:40. > :04:42.limits in a Perthshire town after the death of a two

:04:43. > :04:44.year old girl. In recent days someone took matters

:04:45. > :04:54.into their own hands in Coupar Angus Flowers still marked the scene where

:04:55. > :04:58.Carl Edwards was killed here two weeks ago. She was walking along

:04:59. > :05:03.this pavement when she was struck by a car after it had collided with

:05:04. > :05:07.another vehicle. The funeral of the two-year-old took place yesterday.

:05:08. > :05:11.Her older brother and teenage sister are recovering from serious

:05:12. > :05:15.injuries. An investigation into the cause of the accident is continuing.

:05:16. > :05:20.It has shocked people in the town and led to renewed calls full speed

:05:21. > :05:26.limits to be cut. There is a 30 mile an hour limit in force will stop a

:05:27. > :05:30.couple of hundred yards further on it changes to 60. People here say

:05:31. > :05:35.they have campaigned for years to have a 20 mile an hour limit

:05:36. > :05:39.throughout the town and this death adds urgency to that campaign.

:05:40. > :05:44.Opinions on whether that would work are divided. There were lots of

:05:45. > :05:51.people knocking around. I think 20 miles an hour would be reasonable. I

:05:52. > :05:56.think it is a very good idea. I don't know if it will help. In

:05:57. > :06:01.recent days, someone took direct action, changing some of the signs

:06:02. > :06:07.to 20. They have been changed back but it is perhaps a sign of

:06:08. > :06:14.frustration. But some people man crew. That was an illegal action. It

:06:15. > :06:19.might have given people some cheer, it was soon rectified. Whoever did

:06:20. > :06:22.it and removed it very quickly. Police have issued a stern warning.

:06:23. > :06:28.They regularly carry out speed enforcement activity in the area and

:06:29. > :06:32.altering statutory science risks jeopardising police efforts to

:06:33. > :06:36.enforce the existing legal speed limit. Perth and Kinross Council

:06:37. > :06:40.said they are planning a range of other measures to continue to

:06:41. > :06:44.discourage speeding on this road. The death of this little girl

:06:45. > :06:46.appears to have made campaign is more determined to get a permanent

:06:47. > :06:54.lower speed limit in their town. Judges are to issue a written

:06:55. > :06:56.decision on whether a private prosecution can be brought

:06:57. > :06:59.against the Glasgow bin lorry crash Final legal arguments were heard

:07:00. > :07:02.at the court of Session Relatives of three of the six people

:07:03. > :07:07.who died in the crash in December 2014 are seeking permission

:07:08. > :07:08.from the court to bring The Presiding officer

:07:09. > :07:15.of the Scottish Parliament has set up an independent commission

:07:16. > :07:17.on Parliamentary reform. Ken Macintosh has established

:07:18. > :07:19.a review group to examine how Holyrood holds Government

:07:20. > :07:21.to account, how it scrutinises legislation, and how public

:07:22. > :07:34.engagement can be improved. Politics in Scotland has become

:07:35. > :07:37.tribal and divisive over the last decade. I want the public to

:07:38. > :07:40.re-engage with Parliament and be confident we can carry out duties on

:07:41. > :08:03.behalf of the people of Scotland. RAF serviceman Corrie McKeague has

:08:04. > :08:06.been missing for over a month. The 23-year-old from Dunfermline

:08:07. > :08:08.was last seen near his base in Bury St Edmonds,

:08:09. > :08:10.and despite widespread coverage of CCTV showing him after a night

:08:11. > :08:13.out, his disappearance His mother says she believes

:08:14. > :08:16.he was taken in a vehicle. From Suffolk, Katherine Nash

:08:17. > :08:20.reports. Searches took place north of Bury St

:08:21. > :08:23.Edmunds, one of the possible routes back to RAF Honington. He went

:08:24. > :08:27.missing after a night out in Bury St Edmunds on Friday 23rd of September.

:08:28. > :08:32.He was later seen on CCTV in the town in the early hours of Saturday

:08:33. > :08:35.morning. Following a number of police appeals, earlier this week a

:08:36. > :08:40.man came forward with a possible sighting of him on an industrial

:08:41. > :08:42.estate just behind the sugar beet factory in Bury St Edmunds. Earlier

:08:43. > :08:46.today I spoke to his mother, who has factory in Bury St Edmunds. Earlier

:08:47. > :08:54.come down from Scotland full Suchy spent the last month in Suffolk. I

:08:55. > :08:59.asked how she is holding up. As each day goes by, how we are feeling is

:09:00. > :09:04.starting to change. Initially, it was possible, although he had never

:09:05. > :09:10.tried to walk back to base before, he would have been capable of doing

:09:11. > :09:15.it. Now it is very hard to think of anything else that has happened to

:09:16. > :09:22.him, other than he has gone in a vehicle, because there is just no

:09:23. > :09:27.evidence to say he has not. 5000 man-hours have been put in for the

:09:28. > :09:32.surge. Not only are the police and RAF involved but also volunteer

:09:33. > :09:35.groups. So far no trace of him has been found. Police are still

:09:36. > :09:37.appealing for witnesses who may have been in the area at the time to

:09:38. > :09:56.contact them. More than 30 police and experts have

:09:57. > :10:05.been searching for the 21-year-old Anton Morley. The public is being

:10:06. > :10:10.urged to check gardens, outhouses and garages. He lost his footing

:10:11. > :10:13.from the lock. There is water and it was freezing cold on Monday night.

:10:14. > :10:19.It would be treacherous if someone fell in. That is the cause of our

:10:20. > :10:25.concern. A Dundee-born scientist has died

:10:26. > :10:27.in Antarctica after the snowmobile 50 year old Dr Gordon

:10:28. > :10:34.Hamilton was killed after the vehicle plunged 100

:10:35. > :10:36.feet on Saturday. Dr Hamilton was a professor

:10:37. > :10:41.at the University of Maine A plan is in place for

:10:42. > :10:56.the Scottish Government to take over the running of the country's

:10:57. > :10:59.railways, if Scotrail fails to meet More than 19,000 people have

:11:00. > :11:02.signed a petition calling on the Transport Minister Humza

:11:03. > :11:04.Yousaf to strip the Dutch firm Abellio of the Scotrail contract

:11:05. > :11:07.if they fail to improve. Mr Yousaf told MSPs that contingency

:11:08. > :11:10.plans were ready for ministers Let's get the weather. Over to

:11:11. > :11:32.Christopher. Fairly cloudy but largely dry. Clear

:11:33. > :11:37.conditions across the North East. A touch cooler. Tomorrow morning, we

:11:38. > :11:43.will have a weather front in the north-west. Breezy with of rain.

:11:44. > :11:49.Tomorrow morning, some fairly dense fog patches. There could be some

:11:50. > :11:54.disruption to flights in and out of airports. Back home, tomorrow

:11:55. > :11:59.morning, eight cloudy start. The odd spot of light rain and drizzle.

:12:00. > :12:04.Generally drive. Certainly frost free first thing. Perhaps the odd

:12:05. > :12:07.bright spell across the north-east. Pretty wet across the North West

:12:08. > :12:13.with a weather front approaching. Windy here as well. The rain stayed

:12:14. > :12:17.foremost of the day across the Highlands and Islands. Elsewhere,

:12:18. > :12:24.after the early spit and spot of rain, drying up with sunshine coming

:12:25. > :12:26.through. Sunny intervals coming and going. In the Northwest, some heavy

:12:27. > :12:32.rainfall with strong winds. Potentially gale force for a time. A

:12:33. > :12:36.windy day. Tomorrow, south of the border, largely dry and bright.

:12:37. > :12:42.Closer to the high pressure here and temperatures responding into their

:12:43. > :12:46.mid-teens and we will have 13, 14 Celsius. Soggy across the North West

:12:47. > :12:52.on Thursday evening the weather front will work its way southwards.

:12:53. > :12:56.But as we head through Friday, that rain will have cleared and the

:12:57. > :13:02.high-pressure starting to nudge its way northwards a bit. The gradient

:13:03. > :13:06.opening out and the winds easing. Generally dry with some bright

:13:07. > :13:10.spells. Some and patchy rain in the West and south-west by the end of

:13:11. > :13:14.the afternoon. Towards the weekend, a bitter battle between

:13:15. > :13:18.high-pressure in the near constant and low pressure in the Atlantic. We

:13:19. > :13:24.think this high will keep the weather friends and rain at bay.

:13:25. > :13:29.Saturday and Sunday, largely dry but largely cloudy. That is the

:13:30. > :13:30.forecast. That is reporting Scotland. From all of us, good

:13:31. > :13:32.night.
