An expat living in Ukraine told of his heartache after missing a visa application to leave with his family including a newborn baby.
Dad-of-two Ken Stewart lives 40 miles west of Kiev with wife Tania, and children Yaryna, aged three, and Douglas, who was born two weeks ago.
They are currently unable to return to Scotland due to a visa delay for Tania, who was recently discharged from hospital following a caesarean section, and a visa appointment had been booked at the British Embassy for Friday.
