Episode Details

STV’s iconic News at Six from Aberdeen has officially ended after 60+ years, with the final broadcast airing Friday — marking the end of live regional news from the North East. The move, approved by Ofcom despite political and union pushback, shifts all north-of-Scotland news to Glasgow, while preserving regional identity through shared content. Veteran anchor Norman MacLeod, who’s anchored the show for 36 years, signed off for the last time, honoring the legacy of Aberdeen’s live news tradition. STV now delivers two regional editions — Central and North — with reporters across Scotland, using Aberdeen’s studio only when needed. Around 30 roles were affected, all handled through voluntary exits or redeployment, with the transition now complete.
