I'm not quite sure where the Beeb gets the idea that she's the "largest commercial ship built in Britain in three decades". HARTLAND/ANVIL POINT were both turned out from Harland & Wolff in Belfast in 2002/3 and that's only 16 years ago, and they're much larger than the new BAS ship.
Laird's have an order with Red Funnel for a new freight ferry but nothing from Calmac at the moment.
