Looks like the Indy Ref debate will no longer take place on STV, Alistair Darling & the Better Together campaign have pulled out after STV changed the date of the debate from before the Commonwealth Games on July 16th (the originally proposed date) to after the Games at the First Minister's request. A debate is due to air Tuesday, August 12th on the BBC.

Am I correct in thinking the STV debate isn't being shown on the wider ITV network?

You're correct, I don't even think it's going out on Border Scot on Freeview either...

Makes a change I suppose, I think they took a couple of the Scotland Tonight debates but I don't think they showed any more...

(No mention of this on STV's website, which is very keen that you watch it on, er, STV's website)

Sky news has No graphic, nor does the BBC, AL J doeskin or RT. The one day you would think there would appear, before the vote.
