'Insufficient funds' to pay Brewdog creditors after takeover deal (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Several creditors of collapsed Scottish beer giant Brewdog are not expected to receive anything from the administration process. A report from administrators AlixPartners said there were "insufficient funds" for payouts from Brewdog's retail arm - including £2.4m owed to HMRC for unpaid VAT. Brewdog had also owed £489,000 for wages and holiday pay, which will not be paid through the administration process.

Read excerpt
Charles Rennie Mackintosh's Hill House has been exposed in its naked brickwork for the first time since it was built, in a conservation "milestone" to save the property.

Read excerpt
A 23-year-old man has been arrested after a ferry service on Scotland's west coast was evacuated over a bomb threat. Operator CalMac said a passenger was reported overboard on the MV Caledonian Isles 16:40 service, carrying 329 people from Brodick on the Isle of Arran. The BBC understands that after being pulled from the sea by the ferry's rescue boat, the man then told crew that there was a bomb on board.
