Thinking of Sarah, her family and friends. Thinking of those who never made it home. Hoping for a better society and better understanding.

Today is my last day
@STVNews
and in journalism. Feels surreal. Thank you to my colleagues over the years for their support, guidance and laughs.
My eternal thanks goes to every single person who has permitted me to tell their story. It’s an honour to sit in a person’s house…
The story behind the photo of Connor McAliskey celebrating with his niece is so bittersweet;
But Connor’s sister, Lisa, has been the epitome of strength for her daughters.
Back in the Borders today paying tribute to a lovely man, with the loveliest family.
Doddie, you had such incredible talent. In rugby, comedic timing and putting people at ease.
Rest in peace. X
The happy face of a woman who coached 3 matches today and played 1; coming from 8 points down to win by 8! 💪

Devastated to learn of the passing of my former colleague Russell. He was the loveliest man who helped fuelled my passion for rugby. This was Eng v Ita 2013. My first experience of 6N day from behind the mic and Russell made it happen. He was one of the best. He’ll be so missed.
This is simply the most emotional interview I’ve listened to.
As a Tyrone fan; as someone who drove past those accident points for years; as the daughter of a Killeeshill man. It’s hard listening but it brilliant. Incredible stuff from the Hub.
Well done to the team as ever.
It’s probably our most powerful podcast yet. 20 years since Kevin Hughes won MOTM in Tyrone’s first All-Ireland, he lifts the lid on life, moving on, coping with death and living. It’s a remarkable listen. A brilliant man
Listen here:
“Turn that tv down”
“It is down, it’s on zero”
*Ian Paisley behind the mic*
“I don’t know how he does it!”
Just brilliant simple stuff! 😂😂😂

My colleagues work hard everyday to bring Scotland’s news to the public and we’re indebted to those who let us into their homes and places of work to tell their story. I’m proud to be a part of this team.
This really exciting - I'm delighted for my colleagues who've been covering sport for 20 years and never had the chance to front a programme with Scotland at a major tournament! Just brilliant that STV has the exclusive rights to these games!
