Laura Goodwin named as new Reporting Scotland presenter

BBC Scotland's innovation correspondent Laura Goodwin has been named as a new lead presenter on Reporting Scotland.

Her appointment follows the departure of Sally Magnusson after 27 years in the role.

Laura Goodwin will start presenting the news programme alongside Laura Miller in May.

The South African-born journalist joined the BBC in 2018 and has covered stories from Scotland's business and academic community.

Laura, who moved to Scotland at the age of 12, said she was "delighted" to start presenting the programme.
