#GoodMorningScotland was #BBCRadioScotland's morning #news and current affairs radio programme. It was established in 1973, making it the longest-running radio show broadcast from Scotland. It was broadcast weekdays from 06:00 to 09:00, and Saturdays from 08:00 to 09:00, until 22 November 2025 when it was replaced by Radio Scotland Breakfast, a similar radio programme. The modern edition of the show was based in many respects on #BBCRadio4's Today programme, consisting of regular news, sport.

Thoroughly enjoyed standing in for an episode of Noising Up last week.
Lots of very funny writing and performers 🤪

Scottish music has a long and beautiful tradition. We should celebrate the efforts to keep it alive!

So huge congratulations to Ellie Beaton from Rothienorman for winning the #BBCRadioScotland Young Traditional Musician of the Year award ⭐

"But pleasures are like poppies spread,
You seize the flower, its bloom is shed;
Or like the snow falls in the river,
A moment white--then melts for ever;
Or like the borealis race,
That flit ere you can point their place;
Or like the rainbow's lovely form
Evanishing amid the storm."

If you've got a quarter of an hour to listen to some Robert Burns in honour of his birthday this Saturday, you could do worse than listen to Mark Stephen's fabulous reading of Tam O'Shanter on the BBC Radio Scotland podcast 'Scotland Outdoors'.
