Politics Now is a Scottish political programme produced and broadcast by STV, the main commercial broadcaster in Scotland.
The half-hour programme, running for 40 weeks of the year, is broadcast on late Thursday evenings at either 10:40pm or 11:10pm.
The programme is presented by STV's political editor Bernard Ponsonby with features reports and contributions from the rest of STV's political unit - Westminster correspondent Harry Smith, political correspondent Jamie Livingstone and freelance reporter David Torrance.
