Have a wonderful weekend, all!
🌤️ The weekend’s weather: We’re looking forward to a bright and dry weekend across most of the country: decent in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Aberdeen and especially sunny in London. (Here’s the UK forecast).
And here’s all you need to know this morning:
Upgrade to read the full Party Line, and: read about the Scottish TV star who’s been off our screens for three years battling illness, the SEAL raid that reads like a thriller - but went wrong, what happens when you accidentally fly your private plane into restricted airspace, see a spectacular baronial castle on sale in Scotland… PLUS: find top TV, film and sporting picks for the weekend.
