I didn't see Lunchtime, but with the last strike, it was just some STV promos and an STV Weather forecast. We did indeed see ITV Border bulletins during GMB again.

It's a tad annoying as well that ITVX doesn't carry any regional streams apart from London. Lookaround would have been at least something even if it only had a couple of Scottish stories.

There are regional variations of ITV1 on some tv app versions of ITVX which are allocated by postcode.
They're matched currently to ITV1's HD macro regions, so if you live in Leeds, you'll get Granada instead of Yorkshire North.

Surely anyone who wanted Scottish news while STV journalists were on strike would just go turn to the BBC rather than trying to find a stream of an ITV region targeted at the borders?

A scan through the stories published on Wednesday shows quite a lot of Press Association material (be it Scottish or UK / international content), though there were a few articles with an 'STV News' byline.
Interesting to note they also take stories from the Local Democracy Reporting Service (LDRS).

STV and the NUJ have come to an agreement over their industrial dispute. Whilst I wouldn't say they were fully out of the woods, a positive development and hopefully this will be the begonning of the end in this dispute.

Not that inspiring so far, but perhaps this is the 'logo' STV News will be using for their election coverage:

David Scott has died at the age of 83 - a legendary name in Scottish journalism, he helped to launch Reporting Scotland at the BBC and hosted a hugely popular Saturday morning phone-in on Radio Scotland.
He became STV's head of news in 1986 - restoring a hard news format on Scotland Today following its much-derided magazine era (the IBA didn't look kindly on that either) and launching a raft of new shows such as Scottish Assembly, Scottish Women and Sport in Question - the latter saw Archie Macpherson defect from the Beeb.
The recently-retired Bernard Ponsonby - another of Scott's recruits - has penned this tribute.
