It followed the same format as the London version until a major overhaul of Scottish political programmes took place, which resulted in the axing of the Friday edition of <i>Politics Scotland</i> in 2007 and <i>Holyrood</i> in 2009 which were both presented by <a href="/wiki/Iain_Macwhirter" title="Iain Macwhirter">Iain Macwhirter</a>, and incorporating them into the new programme. The new format resulted in Scotland taking the first 20-30min of the national broadcast then opting-out to provide a full one-hour show analysing the big political stories of the week in Scotland. The programme aired for the final time on 18 December 2011, with a review of 2011. </p><p>From 15 January 2012, <i>The Politics Show</i> was replaced by weekend version of <i><a href="/wiki/The_Daily_Politics" class="mw-redirect" title="The Daily Politics">The Daily Politics</a></i>, hosted by Andrew Neil (who also hosts the weekday version on Wednesdays – Fridays). The programme was thus renamed <i>Sunday Politics Scotland</i> which continued with the same format. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Presenters">Presenters</h3><span
