00:00 Hello, I'm Gill Buchanan, the editor of the Falkirk Herald, and I'm here to tell you
00:04 about some of the stories that are making the headlines in our print edition, which
00:07 is on sale now. We lead on the horrific story of a nine-month-old baby being injured by
00:13 a Camelin woman who was supposed to be looking after the infant. This week, Lindsay Lawrence
00:18 was jailed for four years at the High Court in Edinburgh. Falkirk West MSP Michael Matheson
00:24 has received a record sanction from Holyrood after MSPs agreed he should be barred for
00:28 27 days and not paid a salary for 50 days over his iPad data roaming bill. He has vowed
00:35 not to resign but continue to represent the people of Falkirk West. St Mungo's young filmmakers
00:41 are in the spotlight, as is the award-winning Kinaird Butcher in Delhi. We've also featured
00:47 on Police Scotland's latest recruit, Police Dog Kelpie, who is learning the ropes from
00:51 Police Dog Chase before he retires later this year. And we've got all the details from the
00:57 first week of the general election campaign in Falkirk, after Scottish Conservative leader
01:01 Douglas Ross was in town. We've pictured galleries from Denny and Dunie Pace Community Gala Day,
01:08 Revolution Festival at the Falkirk Wheel, and an open day at Cardinshore Community Hall.
01:14 Still with Cardinshore, historian Ian Scott looks at that area's fascinating history.
01:19 In sport, the Lava Cup football tournament brought in cash for two charities, where there
01:25 were more accolades for John McGlynn and Callum Morrison. All these stories and lots more
01:30 are in a print edition which is on sale now and also online at www.falkirkherald.co.uk.
