About BBC Radio Scotland

BBC Radio Scotland provides a national service from Glasgow, blending news, current affairs, culture and music with a distinctly Scottish outlook. Reporters across the country bring stories from cities, islands and rural areas, informing listeners about politics at Holyrood and Westminster, public services, the economy and daily life. Breakfast and drivetime programmes set the agenda with interviews and debate, while daytime strands spotlight arts, history, science and social issues.

The station follows Scottish sport with live commentaries, reports and analysis, covering league and cup football, rugby and competitions that shape local pride. Phone‑ins and community features give space to voices and ideas, and special programming marks national events and festivals. Produced for audiences across Scotland and Scots throughout the UK, the service aims to be a daily companion, offering reliable information, practical guidance and entertainment that mirrors Scotland’s identity and humour.
