Running "from scipy import special" in both the python and ipython  
terminals, and running the above file from the command line all work  
fine.

Is the same version of python being used in both TextMate and the  
terminal?  In terminal do a “which python” and copy the results to  
TM_PYTHON in TextMate's Shell Variables preference pane.  Does that  
correct the issue?

Hi Alex, thanks for your response - I've had a go at that and it doesn't correct the issue! I still get a similar error. The Python path in the PATH shell variable is the same as that reported by "which python", and is now the same as TM_PYTHON:

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current/bin/python

I should say that the error I'm getting isn't a Python error - I mean it seems to be a shell error or something to do with textmate (I don't pretend to understand). Is there anything else I could try?
