That's been there for a while now - obviously when the camera was no longer needed to look at the Glasgow skyline for Reporting Scotland, they just turned it round a bit..

As I understand it, Scottish TV are getting their own building, by the way.

I was at the building a few weeks ago and it looked far from complete. Basically all I saw was a hollow concrete shell with no walls. On the outside it looked like they had been trialing the paneling that was to go on the building as only a tiny section had been put on. I took some pictures with my phone I'll see if I can get them online and re-edit this post.

Another thing it is not as big as it actually looks. I imagined I was going to see this huge monsterous building but it's not really. It does look big but it's not huge.

Actually Scottish TV will be moving over to Pacific Quay in September 2006. Their building, which wil be completed in less than a years time, is on the other side of the Beat 106 building beside the South Rotunda and the site of what will be the new road bridge.
BBC Scotland is due to move into their new building after that in 2007.
