Yeah, think STV are showing late game again tomorrow so would be same again.

I would imagine being broadcasted on STV Glasgow it would be mostly news stories relating to the west, or you would like to think so.

But I agree it would make perfect sense to stick it on STV+1 once the World Cup Programming has ended and then Join Normal +1 service once it has finished.

Although no John or Rhona I am led to believe, may watch it tomorrow to see if it's the "Normal" Scotland Tonight we are used to seeing

Intresting situation developing this evening. Football on STV, which obviously meant Scotland Tonight was not on, although was on STV Glasgow with a new presenter. Don't think a lot of STV viewers are happy about it either and it's to be a regular occurance if ITV/STV show the late game in the world cup.


The edition of Scotland Tonight that aired on STV Glasgow tonight (well, last night now) was a repeat from last year, with the head-to-head debate between Nicola Sturgeon and Michael Moore. Who is this "new" presenter you speak of? Also, Scotland Tonight doesn't air on Fridays.

Thanks for the clear up, however it has been confirmed that Scotland Tonight will indeed air on STV Glasgow if the football clashes

I am unaware of a new presenter to the Scotland Tonight programme - would be interested to know who this is though?

Airing the World Cup will be a difficult matter with Indy ref coverage for STV - the Beeb clearly have more channels!!

While I am tuned into the Indy ref coverage I would be annoyed if I cannot see the matches!

It wouldn't be so Bad if STV Edinburgh was up and running, and STV Aberdeen Wink

Mind you, there there is Nothing stopping STV repeating the episodes during daytime instead of showing Tipping point.

Has STV bid for any more local tv licenses?

EDIT: Why is the five minute bulletin at twenty to eight billed as "STV Local News & Weather"? I'm guessing it'll be hosted by the STV GLasgow News presenter and will be pan-regional.

Not too sure what else STV has won in this system (or if they have bid for more)? I am not even sure they will work out in the long run?? However having STV, a trusted brand in Scotland, may mean stability and success for these local stations?

The last I heard, STV Edinburgh won't launch until late this year/early next year.

Does STV Edinburgh have their own Lunchime bulletin, or is it pan regional from Glasgow? and if they do, who presents it? as i believe there is only one presenter at Edinburgh?
