BBC Scotland's decision to axe its flagship soap "River City" after over 20 years has drawn criticism from unions and a Member of Scottish Parliament. Unions Equity and Bectu expressed concerns about job losses, the impact on Scottish talent, and the lack of a long-term strategy from the BBC, urging a reconsideration.
