There seems to be a new newsreader for this evening bulletin, never seen him before.


It was STV reporter Alan Jenkins. Think it was his first time.


His first time presenting pan-Scottish, yes. He presented Northbulletins quite a few times when he was based in Aberdeen.

It looks like the Auto-cue has broken down this evening.

Only appeared to be for the first story. Looks like it was fixed quite quickly.

Thought I was seeing things there when I saw Aidan McGivern from ITV Anglia doing the weather after the late bulletin.

Most likely not, it was probably recorded down south.

Was there an issue with Glasgow news tonight? I'm watching on +1 in Ayrshire and getting Edinburgh news (unless +1 is Edinburgh feed throughout central belt?)

No due to a transmitter issue, whereby some people in Edinburgh receive the Glasgow feed, STV took the decision to air the Edinburgh News on +1, regardless of where you are in the central belt.

Cool - first time I think i've watched +1 at news time so was wondering. Cheers.
