- The UK Covid Inquiry has come to Edinburgh to examine how the Scottish government handled the pandemic.
The spotlight shone on the nation's clinical director Professor Jason Leitch. The senior adviser was pilloried last week after the revelation that, during the Covid crisis, he had told officials that deleting his WhatsApps had become a "pre-bed ritual".
This evidence session gave him a chance to respond to that, and also to the suggestion that he offered tips to Humza Yousaf to 'work-around' mask-wearing rules.
Scotland Tonight weighed up Professor Leitch's evidence with the health journalist Pennie Taylor and the political editor of The Scottish Sun Conor Matchett.
