The informative move came as work begins on a new housing development for North Lanarkshire Council at Bank Street in Coatbridge.

Pupils at Coatbridge High School benefited from various employability advice and interactive workshops delivered by five-star housebuilder Cruden.

The informative move came as work begins on a new housing development for North Lanarkshire Council at Bank Street in Coatbridge.

Cruden has begun work on site at the former Sharks Mouth pub on Bank Street, supporting the local authority’s regeneration plans to deliver much-needed new homes for the local community.

The development will transform the vacant site into 16 high-quality, energy-efficient homes for social rent and supported accommodation, helping meet housing needs while contributing to the ongoing regeneration of Coatbridge town centre.

Ahead of construction starting, Cruden has delivered a series of community benefit initiatives with pupils at Coatbridge High School, aimed at inspiring the next generation to explore careers in construction and the built environment.

This included three STEM-focused measurement workshops with the school’s maths classes to demonstrate how maths applies in real working environments on construction sites.

Cruden also supported the school’s careers day as well as leading a careers advice session and separate CV writing and interview skills workshops.

Most recently Cruden hosted a ‘Meet the Apprentice’ session where pupils had the opportunity to hear directly from those in early-stages of their careers in the industry.

These sessions helped pupils understand the practical use of classroom learning and gain insight from Cruden into the wide range of roles available across the construction sector, from trades and apprenticeships to professional and technical careers.

Michael Palethorpe, production and community benefit manager at Cruden, said: “Delivering community benefits is a central part of how we approach every project.

“While the new homes at Bank Street will provide much-needed affordable housing locally, it’s equally important that the development creates meaningful opportunities for the community while construction is underway.

“Our engagement with pupils at Coatbridge High School over recent months has been a fantastic opportunity to show how subjects like maths connect directly to real careers in construction.

“By giving young people practical insight into the industry and the different pathways available, we hope to inspire the next generation to consider careers in the sector.”

Anna Cairney, DYW programme executive for Lanarkshire and East Dunbartonshire, added: “Positive employer engagement is vital in delivering our mission to give young people meaningful, first-hand experience of the world of work while still at school.

“The range of workshops and activities delivered by Cruden at Coatbridge High School is a strong example of the impact that sustained engagement can achieve.

“These sessions have provided pupils with valuable insight into how their learning is applied in real-world careers, particularly in areas such as problem-solving, measurement, and technical skills.

“Hearing directly from apprentices and construction professionals has helped bring classroom learning to life and encouraged pupils to consider a wide range of future career pathways.”

A spokesperson from North Lanarkshire Council said: “This development will transform a vacant town centre site into high-quality homes for local people while supporting the continued regeneration of Coatbridge.

“As well as delivering much-needed housing, it is encouraging to see Cruden engaging with local young people through workshops and careers advice that highlight the wide range of opportunities available within the construction industry.”

The next Resident Evil remake will make some major changes to the original, according to the latest rumours, with a return to online co-op for the mainline series.

Even with a new hack having taken place this week, and it being the most anticipated video game in history, we still know next to nothing about GTA 6. And yet there are some franchises that leak every little detail long before they can ever be formally announced.

Call Of Duty is one of those and another is Resident Evil, with most of the basics about Requiem having been leaked well before they were officially confirmed. Naturally, the rumours didn’t end there and there’s currently believed to be at least two remakes underway, as well as the inevitable sequel to Requiem.

While talk of a new Resident Evil 1 remake suggests it’s the furthest out, there’s been confusion over whether Resident Evil Zero or Code: Veronica is set to be the next one or not. Capcom hasn’t announced either, but news has leaked about online tests that suggests Zero is well underway.

The latest rumour, from Marcox on X, is that Capcom is currently testing online co-op for Resident Evil Zero, with the remake apparently being codenamed Chambers – after co-lead Rebecca Chambers.

As a reminder, the original Resident Evil Zero on GameCube was a purely single-player game, but it had two player characters, the other being felon Billy Coen. You could switch control between them and when they weren’t split up the AI would control whoever you weren’t.

This was seven years before the co-op mode in Resident Evil 5 but while Zero may have acted as a useful experiment for the developers, the dual protagonists didn’t add much to the game, which is one of the least regarded of the mainline entries.

That arguably makes the prospect of a remake more interesting, as nobody’s going to care if Capcom make major changes to Zero, especially in regards to co-op.

Resident Evil 5 and 6 are the only mainline entries to feature co-op and after their poor reception Capcom has not returned to the option again, except in the two Resident Evil Revelations spin-offs.

In that sense, Zero might again serve as a prototype for Resident Evil 5, which no rumour suggests Capcom is so far planning to remake. Although that is an especially difficult prospect, as not only did the game have a mixed reception in terms of its gameplay but the African setting caused controversy back in 2009 and has not aged well since then.

At the moment, it’s currently believed that Zero and Code: Veronica will be released over the course of 2027 and 2028, and while this latest leak suggests Zero will be first, that’s not certain.

Resident Evil 10, the follow-up to Requiem, is believed to be aiming for around 2029, with the Resident Evil 1 remake sometime after that.

The further you get the less accurate such dates become though, whether the current information is accurate or not. But with Requiem proving to be the fastest-selling Resident Evil game ever you can guarantee that Capcom will want to follow up on that as soon as possible.

Netflix fans are being encouraged to watch this “genuine and powerful” drama that has garnered widespread acclaim from audiences.

Crime drama fans have their next binge-watch sorted, with UK audiences only now discovering the Taiwanese series The Resurrected, which launched on Netflix in October.

The English-dubbed thriller, featuring supernatural elements, tells the tale of two bereaved mothers whose daughters were abducted by a human trafficking ring.

Through a forbidden ritual, the mothers bring back to life a criminal mastermind behind a fraud operation in their quest for vengeance against those responsible for taking their children.

Upon its initial release, the nine-episode drama became a phenomenal success for Netflix viewers in territories including Taiwan, Hong Kong and Thailand, and is now making a lasting impression in the UK.

While one viewer described The Resurrected as “criminally underrated”, another echoed: “Why is this so underrated?!! More people should watch this show.

“It was intense and I couldn’t stop binging through all the episodes.”

A third commented: “It was honestly worth the watch. I’m very particular about the things I watch.

“If it’s boring, I tend to turn it off and never finish it, but I binge watched this all in one night. Finished it at 7am.”

Emergency services attended but the man was pronounced dead at the scene.

A man has been found dead at a property in Dundee.

Crews attended but the man was pronounced dead at the scene.

Officers from Police Scotland say inquiries into the circumstances surrounding his death are ongoing, however, there does not appear to be any suspicious circumstances.

A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “Around 2.45pm on Sunday, 12 April, 2026, we were called to a report of concern for a man at a property in the Kinghorne Place area of Dundee.

“I just can’t believe I waited 17 years to get one Green Jacket and now I get two in a row,” he said. “I did the bulk of my work on Thursday and Friday, but I’m just so happy to hang in there and get the job done.”

In terms of being a roller-coaster, it did not begin to rival the unbelievable, gut-wobbling scenes of 12 months before. But then, how could it? In 2025, it had been 11 years since McIlroy had won his fourth major and every year after that he had visited the major that seemingly suited his game most and the pressure had built as he tried to emulate Ben Hogan, Gene Sarazen, Gary Player, Nicklaus and Woods in completing the career grand slam.

At least four times in that crazy scenario, he had one arm in that Green Jacket until he finally saw off Rose in a play-off. This time around it was tense, but it was not on the same level. McIlroy knew it would not be as he explained on Saturday night.

“I’d like to think that I’ll play a little bit freer and I’ll play, you know, like I’ve already got a Green Jacket, which I do,” he said. “Sometimes I maybe just have to remind myself of that, but I think as well that the stakes in terms of, like, the pairing will be just a little bit easier. You know, the atmosphere out there will be a little bit easier. Yeah, I’m not worried about that at all.”

Some took that to mean he was not as motivated, but if that is the case they do not know McIlroy and they do not remember 2014. That was his most spectacular year to date when, as a player in his mid-20s, he won back-to-back majors. This now has the feel of those days and it will be intriguing to see where he takes this next. He is playing freely and is highly dangerous.

Tottenham captain Cristian Romero is set to miss the rest of the season with the knee injury he sustained in their 1-0 defeat at Sunderland.

Argentina defender Romero, 27, looked visibly upset as he limped off following a collision with goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky in the Premier League fixture at the Stadium of Light on Sunday.

It raised concerns he may have incurred an injury serious enough to rule him out of Tottenham‘s final six games as they battle to avoid relegation.

Following tests, Romero is now expected to miss up to eight weeks with a high-grade partial tear of his medial cruciate ligament.

His chances of being part of Argentina’s squad for this summer’s World Cup are also left hanging in the balance.

Romero’s absence is a major setback for newly-appointed head coach Roberto de Zerbi as he bids to keep Tottenham in the top flight.

De Zerbi said after the match that Romero was a “good player with a big personality” and a “crucial player” for Spurs.

Tottenham are currently 18th in the Premier League – two points behind West Ham, who are just above the drop zone.

Daily Record Political Editor Paul Hutcheon said Anas Sarwar has opted for a cautious policy programme and he tries to topple the SNP

Anas Sarwar is running against the SNP and his own party in his campaign to become First Minister.

Scottish Labour’s manifesto launch in Edinburgh was unveiled in nightmare circumstances.

With less than a month to go, Labour are over 20 points behind the SNP and taking the flak for the chaos in Downing Street.

The party backdrops at the Edinburgh University venue had an SNP vibe to them – a big Saltire and repeated references to “Scotland”.

You would have required a microscope to locate the word “Labour” when Sarwar took to the stage.

Keir Starmer, whose terrible start as Prime Minister has done so much damage to Sarwar, was nowhere to be seen in the 94 page document.

One senior party figure said: “We would be more likely to put a picture of Peter Mandelson in the manifesto than Starmer.”

The launch confirmed the progress Scottish Labour has made in the last few years on patriotism.

Sarwar’s party was previously open to the accusation that they were more loyal to UK Labour than to Scots.

His call for Starmer to quit as Prime Minister killed that toxic claim stone dead.

Sarwar was also at his best talking about the country he wants to lead. “Scotland first, everything else after,” he declared.

He also confirmed a shopping list of policies that put the cost of living crisis at the centre of the election.

Boosting tax free childcare, creating 9,000 new apprenticeships and building 125,000 more homes are intended to help people cope with everyday life.

Backing income tax cuts for Scots earning £33,500 or more, as well as a £100m package of support in response to the Gulf crisis, will speak directly to mainstream voters.

Promising to slash NHS waiting times, end the 8am rush for a GP appointment and create a new mental health emergency service also hones in on the SNP’s weakest area – health.

But there is a feeling inside Labour that the manifesto lacked ambition after nearly 20 years in the doldrums of Holyrood politics.

Sarwar has committed to keeping every one of the SNP’s universal benefits, from free prescriptions to no university tuition fees.

Some of the anti-poverty policies, such as on breakfast clubs in primary schools and generous payments for babies, were cut and pasted from the SNP Government Budget.

The manifesto showed Sarwar is promising to be a better custodian of Scotland’s status quo, rather than going for the jugular and backing a fundamentally new approach.

In the question and answer session with journalists, he responded tetchily to the suggestion he was offering “new management” by reeling off all the times the media had predicted a fall for Labour.

“Now you are telling us we can’t win this election. I look forward to proving you all wrong on the 7th of May,” he said, to applause.

But everything about Sarwar’s campaign, from his spring conference in Paisley to the manifesto, shows he is focused on voters’ minds, not their hearts.

He is asking Scots to “hold their nose” and vote Labour tactically, rather than do so with any enthusiasm.

Sarwar is of the view that Alex Salmond’s victory in 2007 is a template of success for him.

Nearly twenty years ago, Salmond tapped into a vibe of change and promised a series of inexpensive but eye-catching populist policies.

Salmond’s energy also led to the SNP beating Labour by a single seat, a result that changed Scotland forever.

Sarwar’s problem is he possesses Salmond’s drive but lacks the pledge card-style policies the former SNP leader had in droves.

The Glasgow MSP believes that once voters are interested in the campaign, they will see Labour as the best option to call time on two decades of SNP rule.

He is confident switchers will deliver him ten to fifteen SNP constituencies.

But anger with the UK Government means he still has three mountains to climb to win the election.

Sarwar has to claw back support lost to Reform, eat into the SNP’s huge lead and halt the rise of the Greens. All in less than 25 days.

If the pro-UK parties pull off a majority, which no poll is showing, Sarwar would then require Reform support to become First Minister.

The best Sarwar can hope for is sneaking a narrow win and crawling into the Bute House.

A man in his 20s and a woman in her late teens were pronounced dead after the crash on the C267 School Lane around Derwent Reservoir, by Winnows Hill Farm, on Sunday (April 12).

Police say the VW Polo was driving north on the road when it left smashed into a tree just before 6pm.

A third occupant of the car, another man in his 20s, was taken to hospital and the road remains closed.

Sergeant Craig Bartle, of Northumbria Police, said: “Our thoughts are firmly with the family and loved ones of the man and woman who have sadly died as a result of this traffic incident. 

“We will continue to offer their loved ones all of the support they need as we begin our investigations and seek to provide them with answers.”

“We are now appealing for any information and in particular, anyone with dashcam footage of the incident, or the moments leading up to it. 

“We are particularly keen to speak with anyone who was travelling in the area in either direction and who may have seen what happened.

“If this was you, or you were in the area around the time of this collision, please come forward and speak with us.

“Any information you are able to provide could prove crucial to our enquiries.”

Anyone with information is asked to send Northumbria Police a direct message on social media, use the live chat and report forms on the force’s website, or call 101 quoting reference NP-20260412-0711.
