First time I've seen Scotland Today in yoinks - and it opened with the female presenter talking about "150 spoiled votes" (!), then a strange flash-frame back to her, which reappeared for a few seconds after a second of black, in the middle of the opening report!
EDIT: And now the SNP have "a majority of one" - on 47/129 seats (36.4%). They have no idea what a majority (i.e., >50%) is, do they?

Yeah up to a point. Andrea just doesn't cope as well without autocue! John's interviewing is much better, Andrea's very lightweight but hey it pretties the picture up I guess - as she finishes off her interview with Nicol Stephen ..."alright"!
I take it this is going out Scotlandwide. A taster of things to come?

John Mackay and Andrea Brymer anchoring the special programme. Great to see them back together.

I'm guessing so - they seem to be saying 'STV News' at the end of reports in place of 'Scotland Today'.

"The news where you are" but I'm getting Stephen in Edinburgh! Should say I'm in the west... what's going on?
GR
I think what they meant by "where you are" was either Northern Scotland or Central Scotland.
Ok, makes sense, thanks!

I'm guessing you aint a Andrea fan - fair enough.
However, Bernard cocked up with saying on 'Scotland Today' on the dual programme. John was also shakey at times.
I guess this broadcast demonstrates what many do not realise - news presenters are human and make mistakes from time to time!!!

Not at all - I realise it reads like that though! Just didn't feel she was up to the big live stuff out the studio. As you say they are human! However Stephen (who I'm not a huge fan of) was excellent. Good gravitas tonight.
