But first, let's take a look at some of today's other main news.

29
Well, for more information on any of these stories, you know that you can scan that QR code there, which of course takes you over to the BBC Scotland News app.
30
OK, now returning to our top story now.
31
The person in charge of an independent review of maternity services has reassured families their experiences will be part of her findings.
32
Professor Christine McCourt can't investigate individual cases, but she said talking to a range of people will help make improvements.
33
The government ordered the review in 2025 after BBC disclosure uncovered a series of safety failings.
34
Our health correspondent Lisa Summers spoke to the families campaigning for change.
35
You can't go looking at every single individual case if you're looking to change, if it's about changing the system,
36
but I think there are certain cases out there that are perhaps too egregious to step over.
37
Cases like Jackie and Olivia's is almost exemplary of the systemic rot and failings.
38
I understand that there are constraints.
39
I understand there are problems in recruiting midwives and recruiting staff, so I'm not asking for that but what I do think is really important is
40
that the absolute basics covered here and they're just not being done just now.
41
Well earlier I spoke to Jackie Lambert who is the Scotland Director for the Royal College of Midwives who welcomes the review.
42
While we often hear oh the births their number of births are going down
43
that has to be seen in the much wider context of the fact
44
that the workload has increased so much and midwives are giving really good care
45
but they're really hampered by the fact that they've not got enough staff
46
and we haven't got that skill mix
47
that we need it's why we called out in our manifesto
48
and we really hope to see from this review and
49
that focus on workforce
50
that we end up with a workforce plan to meet the needs of families wherever they are in Scotland
51
so that we've got the midwives and we've got the skill mix
52
and we've got the time for that development and learning
53
and the time to be flexible with the time
54
that you're spending with families that's what's going to make a difference
55
and so we're really hopeful that this review
56
that will look at the situation now and recognize
57
that we need a workforce plan not for today
58
but for the from now on and for the next 10 years to make sure
59
that we are absolutely got the right to be proud of maternity services wherever it happens in Scotland So does that mean,
60
Jackie, that some of the mistakes that are made in these settings are preventable?
61
And is that frustrating?
62
So this is a human endeavour, having babies, being pregnant, working with families.
63
And there will never be a day when somebody doesn't make a mistake.
64
But we need to have all the systems in place to learn and to make sure that we're learning from good.
65
and human error happens but if you're tired
66
and you haven't had a break and you haven't got enough staff it increases
67
that risk and we don't want to do anything
68
that increases the risk of anybody making a mistake because
69
that hurts everybody but it's also really difficult for that person providing care as well.
70
So we want to make sure that we've got all the systems in place
71
and the context in place to make doing the right thing much much easier
72
because you've got the right number of staff you've had the time to take a break
73
and that you're coming to your work fresh and you mentioned earl jackie
74
that you are you're hopeful about this review what needs to be included in it
75
and what would you like to see come from it well
76
it's been a long time since we looked at scotland
77
and said what what level of care would you expect in your community close to home
78
and you know in your hub or what level
79
because we hear a lot about hubs but where's midwifery
80
and maternity services in that close to home and accessible
81
so what's the skill mix needed what's the learning and education needed
82
and what's the resource required whether that's a community maternity unit
83
out in the rural area whether it's a big tertiary unit what is
84
that staffing and skill mix that's needed what's the care
85
that you would expect to find there and we need
86
that updated to look at the world we're in now
87
and moving forward so that we have good sustainable services now to look at
88
that then you have to look at what's that workforce plan
89
and have we got all the education and development needed to make sure
90
that that's possible these are all tangible things we want every
91
single woman in person having a family in scotland to be able to access the right care
92
and that means where does
93
that care need to be to bring it close to those families
94
but to do that the biggest biggest resource
95
and the biggest thing of failure we have is our workforce
96
so we need to make sure that we've got the right folk there to provide
97
that care okay jackie we'll we'll leave it there thank you
98
so much for your time and for talking us through that i very much appreciate it no problem thank you
99
now it's one of scotland's most notorious unsolved murders an aberdeen
100
taxi driver brutally killed by a passenger using a cheese wire
101
garotte george murdoch's death in september 1983 led to a huge police manhunt
102
but no charges in the aftermath the officers manned the turnstiles
103
at putaudry football stadium in the hope of spotting any signs which could lead to the killer and 43 years on,
104
the club's matchday programme will revisit the case in the hopes it could lead to new information about George Murdoch's killer.
105
His nephew Alex Mackay and his wife Rubina have dedicated their lives to catching his killer
106
and our reporter Rachel Bell asked how they felt about this latest appeal.
107
Optimistic, always optimistic because we're encouraged.
108
We run a Facebook page, Rubina does a lot of posts on Facebook but we have tremendous support followers.
109
Our high in terms of views was 125 ,000 for one post.
110
The latest post, about 51 ,000.
111
There is a lot of interest.
112
There's a lot of energy.
113
And from that, we get a lot of tips.
114
So tips keep coming in.
115
And that's encouraging because if there wasn't tips coming in, it would be like, are we just kind of just doing all this for nothing? and we're not.
116
We've had a few tips that's come in and we've basically both said well this is,
117
this could be the one and well so far it hasn't come but we're optimistic it will come.
118
I certainly would never stop because I am convinced that we will find, or the police will find this guy.
119
Whether he's alive or dead it doesn't matter.
120
It's funny we're often asked so what's the point you know I mean he could be dead.
121
Well so what?
122
All that's important to me is that we get his name.
123
If we knew who did this, just a name, I'd feel that this, you know, that would be justice for Dodd.
124
Because being realistic, you know, I mean, say they got the guy next week, and say they brought him to trial.
125
He'd probably be now our age, maybe later, maybe older, whatever, maybe late 70s, who knows.
126
So even if he was found guilty, he may serve some time.
127
I'm not interested in that.
128
Not now.
129
It's all about justice for God.
130
It's not about us.
131
It's not about anybody else.
132
It's about getting justice.
133
It doesn't sit right with either of us.
134
We've got a really high sense of justice.
135
We always have had.
136
This is what's driven this.
137
And it doesn't sit right with us.
138
It's a sit back and do nothing.
139
Do you think that there is someone sitting just now who knows what happened to George?
140
Absolutely, 100%.
141
I just cannot think someone would be able to compartmentalise that whole thing themselves.
142
Even if they haven't said it, they would have probably come home that night dishevelled where they live.
143
Even do they have a partner, wife, mother, father, who would probably be dead now.
144
But somebody would definitely know, and there's probably been some whispers in the family that, yeah, it's him.
145
You must just be seeking some closure as well for something that's taken a huge part of your life as well.
146
We are, but it's not all doom and gloom because when I think of Dodd and Jaycee, it's happy memories.
147
that's my abiding thoughts of them not what happened that night it's about who they were
148
and they were just wonderful people and I've just got so many great great memories of them and
149
that's what keeps us going as well
150
because you can't I mean you can't be doom and gloom all the time it's impossible
151
Rachel Bell reporting there well in other news this evening a
152
man with a history of domestic abuse has admitted murdering the mother of his three children in her own home in Hoyk, a day after learning she was in a new relationship.
153
It's now emerged Lee Ingalls had twice avoided prison for previous knife attacks on his former partner, Stacey Hogg.
154
When he was arrested, he told police if he couldn't have her, then nobody would.
155
From the High Court in Edinburgh, here's David Knox.
156
Stacey Hogg was described by her family as a loving mum, daughter, sister and friend who touched the lives of so many.
157
The mother of three had previously been in a 15 -year
158
relationship with Lee Ingalls who pleaded guilty this morning to her murder.
159
The court heard
160
that during their relationship Ingalls had twice been convicted of knife
161
-related domestic assaults towards Stacey the latest being in 2025 for holding a knife to her throat and cutting her face.
162
On both occasions the 39 -year -old was sentenced to community payback orders involving unpaid work, supervision and a night -time home curfew.
163
But in June this year, having learned the previous evening that Stacey had started a new relationship,
164
Ingalls waited until his curfew ended at 7am to walk from his parents' home half a mile away
165
and carry out his frenzied attack.
166
The 35 -year -old mother of three suffered what were described in court as catastrophic injuries to her head
167
and to her neck, with Ingalls later telling police he had intended to cut off her head.
168
The case is one of a series of high -profile violent crimes against women in Scotland in recent months.
169
Vicky Solomon was killed by her former partner in Edinburgh in July.
170
It later emerged police had been contacted before her death.
171
Just days later, Stacey Hunter was murdered by her estranged husband while he was out on bail for a previous attack on her.
172
The First Minister has described violence against women and girls as a national emergency.
173
Domestic violence organisations say the system needs to change.
174
Even when there's, you know, a previous history of domestic abuse, which is a really big signal, the system doesn't, you know,
175
shift into high gear for protection.
176
And even when a woman often gets a non -harassment order, a protection order of some kind or another,
177
when they're breached, the system doesn't respond robustly.
178
Stacey's death led to a widespread outpouring of grief, with her funeral held in Hoyt Town Hall to accommodate the number of mourners.
179
Ingalls will be sentenced on November 5th.
180
David Knox, Reporting Scotland.
181
And details of organisations offering information
182
and support with domestic abuse are available for you over at bbc .co .uk forward slash action line
183
or you can call for free at any time to hear recorded information on the number
184
which is on the screen for you now.
185
Well, still to come, we'll have a weather forecast for you with Gillian
186
and we'll tell you how you can become a Tartan Noir writer.
187
But first, let's get to sport with Jane.
188
Thank you very much.
189
Good evening to you.
190
We're straight into the action this evening
191
because Scotland's women are in the Czech Republic for the first leg of their World Cup playoff semi -final.
192
Almost 15 minutes gone in this one and I can tell you
193
that in the last few minutes Caroline Weir has put them 1 -0 up.
194
That was a shot from her earlier on in the match just going over
195
but she has gone one better just a couple of minutes ago.
196
Sandy McKeever up the other hand.
197
Had to look pretty lively as well to keep the Czechs out.
198
As I say, Scotland are winning 1 -0
199
and they will play again the second leg of that semi -final on Tuesday night.
200
Now, the Hugh Hebb's boss, Marenk Riedijk, says the club already feels like family.
201
He was speaking to the media for the first time today since he replaced David Cray, who was sacked last month.
202
The 20, 35 -year -old, I should say, left Belgian side Breverin in the summer after guiding them to the top flight without defeat last season.
203
He had two weeks with the squad in Spain
204
and he says he's ready to get things started on the pitch tomorrow as the Premiership returns after the international break.
205
For me, it's a very good opportunity to see where we are, really, because I have a good idea where we are.
206
And therefore, I so much look forward to start and really start off because the pre -season on steroids now is over.
207
I'm here now because I think this really fits me with the club it is, but also the people who work here.
208
It is a special club.
209
I did my research.
210
It has a lot of supportive fans, which are a sort of family.
211
And when I first entered the building and since I'm here, it feels like a family.
212
Reidike's reign begins with a visit to Tanadice.
213
Earlier, I spoke to former Hibs player Scott Allen and asked him what he's expecting to see from his old side tomorrow.
214
I'm excited to see how it's going to look.
215
I think a lot of Hibs fans are kind of looking forward to see what this style is going to look like.
216
Obviously, we've heard soundbites about them being aggressive on the front foot.
217
And he's certainly had time to bed these ideas in.
218
Obviously, the team's been away in La Manga, obviously, during an international break.
219
So it's one of those situations where he's actually had a lot of time to get a lot across. So, listen, it's still a difficult game away at Tannadise against Dundee United
220
off the back of a game against a win against St Mirren
221
but I think there's a lot of excitement about how this is going to look tomorrow.
222
I think Hibs are one of their teams for me but they actually do have a good squad.
223
I think they've been underperforming and it's just whether Merink -Reedite can come in here
224
and actually get the best out of their squad
225
and at the same time the Hibs fans are asking for a more attacking style of play.
226
Can you do that but at the same time win games of football?
227
Are you hearing anything about how they might shape up?
228
What their approach might be at all?
229
A few things I think at the same time now with my relationships and the changing room.
230
They sometimes don't want to tell you too much
231
because they know you're obviously on speaking about it
232
but yeah I think the manager's kind of spoke himself about being really aggressive
233
so you expect a high press
234
and at the same time looking to play out from the back a bit more than maybe under his predecessor David Gray.
235
Is that what you'd quite like to see from him as well?
236
Maybe a bit more intensity around about their game?
237
I would like to see them with a bit more control in some of the games
238
that i've seen this season a lot of the games
239
that they they did lose have they've had halves of good
240
football it's now trying to put it together in control for for 90 minutes
241
and it's it is difficult it's difficult to do that the premiership
242
but i think if they have more of the ball
243
and they can get them the players who can actually go
244
and hurt you in areas a lot more than they have previously until his appointment then i think
245
that gives him the best chance to go and win
246
games of football consistently let me ask you just
247
while i've got you here scott if i can And a question about the Green Brigade.
248
They've come out with a statement to say they're going to boycott Celtic's Scottish Cup matches and home European ties.
249
Martin O 'Neill saying that the gap between some of the fans and the club is pretty wide now.
250
How does that affect players on the pitch?
251
All it does is just add more pressure in every performance.
252
I think, yes, we've had an international break, but the three games before that, Celtic massively underperformed
253
and fans are looking at what this is going to look like now that we're back to domestic football and European state.
254
So there's no getting away from it.
255
I think when you take that sort of level of voice and atmosphere away from the stadium, it does impact the players at a time where for me, they really need that support alongside them.
256
And just a final one about Rangers.
257
I think they'll probably be chomping at the bit, wanting to get back into league action and they could go top tomorrow if things go well for them,
258
albeit only for a day but that would be a real boost, wouldn't it?
259
Absolutely.
260
I know Derek McKinnis had spoken about it.
261
They hadn't mentioned it yet, but I think the players within that changing room and the coaching staff will know
262
just what that will do for their mentality if they were to go top tomorrow after that deficit.
263
They were behind Celtic so early on the season, so that would then put them in really good stead moving forward.
264
And again, it just adds more pressure onto Celtic come Sunday.
265
Yeah, the Premiership is back.
266
There's plenty more on the BBC Sports Scotland website, including all that reaction from the Women's World Cup semi -final playoff.
267
Good news so far.
268
Scotland leading that one by a goal to nil.
269
Caroline Weir doing a skipper's job by getting them in front in that one.
270
Lovely stuff, Jane.
271
Thank you so much for the updates.
272
Now, Ian Rankin, Denise Mina
273
and Val McDermott are just a few of the authors who have made their mark on the world -renowned crime genre, which is known as tartan noir
274
and now it's the subject of a free online course offered by the university of glasgow
275
so what can budding crime novelists expect earlier i spoke to
276
the course leader dr craig lamont to ask him it's a massive open online course it's called a mooc
277
and several of us in scottish literature at the university designed the course
278
and arranged then reviews with the authors and the critics and the experts around the world to talk about tartan noir
279
And tell me, why do you think the genre has become so popular?
280
It's a great question.
281
I think that people just love to associate Scotland with urban settings
282
and you've got the unique placement of islands and crime
283
and islands and there's some great authors who pretty much use Scotland's unique facets to tease out interesting stories.
284
And really, when we talk about tartan noir, we're talking about what people want out of a thriller novel.
285
So they use Scotland's characteristics,
286
the Scottish psyche, They take on the historical quirks that Scottish literature has given us from Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes stories.
287
Of course, you've got Robert Louis Stevenson's classic Jekyll and Hyde as well.
288
So Scottish authors are very good at being aware of the long history of Scottish crime writing or thrillers, and they've really popularised it.
289
Tell me, in your view, what makes the perfect tartan noir novel or the perfect tartan tale, if you would like?
290
The perfect tartan tale, that's a great question.
291
I personally love the unreliable narrator so plenty of authors in Scotland are aware
292
that within Scottish literature there's a there's a trick
293
which is almost like the narrator of the story
294
and I'm not saying
295
that other nations don't do this I just think we're the
296
we're the best at it they sort of take you down
297
the wrong path you know it's the class it's not just the classic whodunit
298
but it's the idea that the narrator isn't exactly reliable
299
and often Scottish authors play around with that and they draw you in
300
and just lastly then tell me who is this course for
301
and what are you hoping
302
that they take away from it essentially it's for all it's
303
an introductory course I mean all our Scottish Studies online courses
304
are for anyone who who wants to do it that's why they're free that's why they're always open
305
and we hope that people with an interest in and crime rating
306
and writing in general want to take the course I mean
307
any library in Scotland any Scottish town seems to have a
308
massive crime shelves you know the The section's always the biggest one, I think.
309
And so I think we're trying to capture a new audience, a new readership.
310
And one of the things the course does that's unique is the authors who feature on it, who we interview, are giving advice for budding crime writers
311
because there's a new generation of them that are winning awards at festivals and they're coming through the ranks.
312
And I think that there's always people who want to try their hand at crime writing.
313
So our authors, including Louise Welsh and Chris Brookmeyer, who feature on the course, they actually are trying to encourage people don't be afraid of trying to write here's some tips
314
and advice don't worry about the perfect time to write
315
which is one of my favorite pieces of advice generally and
316
so there's opportunities and real encouragement for people to take the course learn about the genre
317
and then try it themselves so i hope people can do
318
that okay dr craig lamont thank you so much for joining us
319
and we wish you the very best of luck thank you
320
and finally tonight it's been around for the best part of two centuries
321
and organizers of the royal national mod are predicting this will
322
be a record -breaking year in terms of people taking part the annual celebration of scots gaelic culture language
323
and history starts today in glasgow bringing together thousands of acts
324
and spectators from right across the country our reporter annabel mcclennan
325
has been speaking to some of those involved we're going to be very very busy there's no doubt about
326
that this is the largest mod there's ever been.
327
We've got over 10 ,000 people expected in Glasgow and over 2 ,000 of those are competing.
328
We've also got loads of different events going on as well as the competitions.
329

330
We've got a lot going on around the arts as well as singing and just speaking parts.
331
Well tonight's concert is all about the celebration of over 40 years of Gaelic medium education in Glasgow
332
and what done is we've pulled together a huge amount of children
333

334
There's over 200 odd singers expected,
335
there's pipers, then there's an orchestra and all the children there have gone through this form of education in Glasgow.
336

I'm very excited about it.
339
It's a lot to learn but it'll be very fun and I like being busy.
340
It looks like it's going to be really really good with loads and loads of performers and people.
341
It looks very, very cool.
342
Listen, I'm very excited about hosting tonight.
343
It's great to be on the stage with my My cousin, Carrie, who will be hosting it with us.
344
It's a real family affair.
345
And it's brilliant, you know, to see Gaelic thrive in the city
346
and to celebrate 40 years of Sir John Maxwell at the beginning to Hill Park and now, of course, at the Glasgow Gaelic School.
347
It's brilliant to see that explosion of the language in the city.
348
Well, it looks brilliant, doesn't it?
349
OK, let's take a look at the weather forecaster for you now.
350
And Gillian, I had the pleasure of being out and about in some torrential rain earlier.
351
Yeah, for the job, but it looks like it's been quite a mixed bag today.
352
Yeah, the weather couldn't make up its mind today, Sarah.
353
Sunshine, showers, more of that tomorrow, but a much drier day to come on Sunday.
354
We had some really heavy downpours around today.
355
Big one brewing over Kilmacomb earlier here.
356
And blustery winds as well, a beautiful but blustery Murray coast.
357
But of course, sunshine and showers, perfect rainbow weather.
358
And we've had some beauties coming in from our weather watchers.
359
What about the weekend then?
360
Well, if we take a look at the pressure chart, you can see that for tomorrow, We still have low pressure close by, still gusty winds, plenty showers.
361
Then a ridge of high pressure brings something drier for Sunday.
362
And into next week, Atlantic -driven weather means it's pretty changeable with rain and brisk winds at times.
363
But this is how we'll start things tomorrow morning.
364
Some bells of sunshine along with a scattering of showers.
365
I think for southern Scotland, parts of the central belt and the east, that's where you'll see the best of the drier weather.
366
Main focus of those showers will be in the west and the northwest, some of them heavy coming in on still strong winds,
367
still a risk of gales in exposed western coastal parts at first.
368
Though for the Northern Isles, that's the centre of that area of low pressure and winds lighter than they were today.
369
But through the day, we'll continue to see showers feeding in on those brisk northwesterly winds, those winds making for quite a cool feel.
370
Temperatures 10 to 13 Celsius for most of us.
371
Again, the best of the sunshine likely to be in southern parts.
372
But here's that ridge of high pressure as we head into Sunday.
373
It makes for a cool start to the day, but plenty of dry and bright weather.
374
So we'll start still with a scattering of showers for southwestern coasts, as well as the Western Isles, the North Highlands, the Northern Isles, and the Banff and Buckingham coasts and pockets of mist as well.
375
All of that will clear, though, and the emphasis on Sunday.
376
Plenty dry and bright weather with some decent sunny spells.
377
And temperature -wise, still only about the seasonal average, 11 to 14 Celsius.
378
But take those strong winds out of the equation, and it will be, I think, a much better feeling day.
379
For Monday, it's milder because the wind moves into the south.
380
You can see we have lots of cloud and we'll have patchy rain pushing northeastwards across the country, especially in the morning.
381
The afternoon brings something drier and there will be a few sunny breaks, especially to the north of high ground, so over the North Highlands, the northeast, and you can see temperatures slightly up,
382
reaching 15 or 16 Celsius, quite heady heights.
383
Heading into the rest of the week and it is unsettled.
384
We have low pressure close by for much of the time showers, some longer spells of rain and those winds really will be a feature through next week, so stay tuned to the forecast Sarah.
385
Lovely stuff Gillian thank you so much for all of that and just an update for you at home, Scotland's women have gone 2 -0 up against the Czech Republic
386
that was the first goal for Claire Emsley since becoming a mum and that's all from us here tonight, enjoy your weekend bye bye

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
