already - and it's not over. There's a risk to life. | :00:13. | :00:18. | |
This latest storm hit the South West first before heading up the country | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
- there's already been widespread damage. The gales have now started | :00:22. | :00:32. | |
hitting the coastline. These wind speeds would be considered | :00:33. | :00:36. | |
extraordinary out on the open sea but what makes it exceptional is | :00:37. | :00:39. | |
they are hitting inland. A month's rain is expected in the | :00:40. | :00:42. | |
next few days alone - in some places the Thames could reach its highest | :00:43. | :00:45. | |
level for more than 60 years. We'll be asking what's been causing | :00:46. | :00:52. | |
the extreme weather. Also tonight: Guilty - the two men who helped the | :00:53. | :00:55. | |
serial killer Joanna Dennehy during her 12-day killing spree. | :00:56. | :00:57. | |
The Bank of England governor says interest rates will stay low for | :00:58. | :01:01. | |
another year, as he gives a more optimistic economic forecast. Now we | :01:02. | :01:11. | |
know it's not random. The men who went behind enemy lines | :01:12. | :01:15. | |
to rescue art looted by the Nazis - George Clooney tells us why he | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
wanted to make the film. Tonight on BBC London: | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
The rescues continue - we're out with the emergency services still | :01:23. | :01:24. | |
helping flooded families. And the Londoner who posted videos | :01:25. | :01:27. | |
glorifying the murder of Fusilier Lee Rigby. | :01:28. | :01:46. | |
Good evening and welcome to the BBC News At Six. Hurricane force winds | :01:47. | :01:54. | |
have been battering the west of Britain today. It follows a red | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
warning from the Met Office - the first this winter - meaning there's | :01:59. | :02:01. | |
a risk to life and widespread damage is expected. About 60,000 homes are | :02:02. | :02:05. | |
without power, several motorways have been closed and a section of | :02:06. | :02:09. | |
the West Coast Main Line will be shut from seven this evening for a | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
couple of hours. Wind speeds of 108 mph have already been recorded at | :02:14. | :02:19. | |
Aberdaron in Wales. The South West was the first to feel the brunt of | :02:20. | :02:22. | |
this latest storm, before it worked its way up the country through Wales | :02:23. | :02:28. | |
and the North West of England. As if that's not enough, forecasters are | :02:29. | :02:31. | |
warning that a month's rain will fall in the next few days. Tonight | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
we'll have the latest from the flood zones, and we'll be asking what's | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
behind this extreme weather. First, Hywel Griffith is in Criccieth in | :02:40. | :02:42. | |
North Wales, which has felt the full force of the storm. | :02:43. | :02:54. | |
George, welcome to the red zone, a place which has experienced wind | :02:55. | :03:00. | |
speeds of over 100 mph. A place where everyone I've spoken to today | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
has said one thing - they cannot remember anything like this before. | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
It is a place where the number of homes without power is increasing | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
hour by hour. This has quite simply been an extraordinary day. | :03:13. | :03:24. | |
What will nature throw at us next? As horror came conditions reached | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
West Wales, they triggered sandstorms on the coast. -- | :03:30. | :03:36. | |
hurricane conditions. I'm over 60 years old and haven't seen anything | :03:37. | :03:39. | |
like this. We haven't had a break-up really. Day after day. It's really | :03:40. | :03:46. | |
building up, the wind, and you can feel it pushing up your body and up | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
your clothes. Anybody would be advised to stay at home today. It's | :03:51. | :03:57. | |
amazing. Let's hope it stops soon, cos we're getting rather fed up with | :03:58. | :04:03. | |
it. Dozens of schools were forced to close their doors. Few want to do | :04:04. | :04:08. | |
hang around as the storm took hold. It's horrendous. It's the worst | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
weather I've ever worked on. The children were coming out crying | :04:13. | :04:18. | |
because the sound was hurting them. John Dunn has decided to evacuate | :04:19. | :04:23. | |
his home. The caravans on the site he runs are being chained down in | :04:24. | :04:28. | |
case they are carried by the gusts. It feels as though I'm in the middle | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
of a nightmare and someone is going to pinch me and make we up but I | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
know that's not going to happen. -- wake me up. For several months the | :04:35. | :04:40. | |
coastal defences have been tested and all people living here can do is | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
hang on and wait to see what the latest storm will bring and how much | :04:45. | :04:51. | |
destruction it leaves behind. As the gales swept inland, they brought | :04:52. | :04:57. | |
down trees and mangled power lines, leaving over 50,000 homes without | :04:58. | :05:01. | |
power. These are not seafaring conditions. Ferries were unable to | :05:02. | :05:07. | |
make it onto the Irish Sea. The coasts have to be kept clear. The | :05:08. | :05:13. | |
waves are impressive but be aware that there is a lot of day bree | :05:14. | :05:22. | |
inside the wave. -- debriefed. These exceptional conditions are spread | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
around Britain's coastline. In Lyme Regis, the waves grew with every | :05:28. | :05:33. | |
hour. In Plymouth, seaside shops and businesses had to prepare for the | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
worst. At the Met Office's own weather centre in Exeter, the | :05:40. | :05:42. | |
growing force of the wind was clear. It has issued a red warning. It's a | :05:43. | :05:49. | |
rare warning. We don't often issue a red warning. The last time we issued | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
a red warning for wind was two years ago. Forecasters promised these | :05:54. | :05:59. | |
winds will eventually lost but Britain's brutal winter remains with | :06:00. | :06:02. | |
us and won't be forgotten for some time. | :06:03. | :06:06. | |
Our correspondents have been out and about as the storms headed inland | :06:07. | :06:09. | |
off the Atlantic. In a moment, we'll hear from Judith Moritz in | :06:10. | :06:13. | |
Blackpool. But first, Jon Kay is in Lyme Regis - one of the first places | :06:14. | :06:20. | |
to feel the full force of the winds. Jon, it still looks bad with you. | :06:21. | :06:26. | |
Yeah, these southerly winds just slapped a straight into the south | :06:27. | :06:31. | |
coast of England mid-morning today and here we are nine hours later at | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
high tide and it is still unbelievably windy. People say that | :06:35. | :06:40. | |
even by the standards of this terrible winter, this is the | :06:41. | :06:42. | |
windiest and wildest they've known it. I'm quite a big bloke and this | :06:43. | :06:52. | |
afternoon I was inside the sheltered part of a famous landmark year in | :06:53. | :06:55. | |
Lyme Regis and it was almost impossible to stand up there. And | :06:56. | :07:00. | |
the spray as it hits your exposed hands was like pins or needles were | :07:01. | :07:05. | |
being stuck into your skin because it was so hard with the rain and the | :07:06. | :07:10. | |
spray from the sea. It is a sign of The Times that over the last couple | :07:11. | :07:13. | |
of weeks we've seen people out here taking pictures of the waves. Today, | :07:14. | :07:19. | |
it's been too wild even for that. It isn't just Lyme Regis. This whole | :07:20. | :07:23. | |
post has taken the brunt of it as it has carried on its journey up into | :07:24. | :07:29. | |
other parts of the country. We can cross to Blackpool and that's where | :07:30. | :07:34. | |
Judith Moritz is. Judith, all this is heading to you! | :07:35. | :07:46. | |
So sorry. Very, very difficult conditions, as you can imagine, so | :07:47. | :07:52. | |
we've lost to Judith. We might go back to her later if we can. | :07:53. | :07:58. | |
Our science editor David Shukman is here. Look at what Judith was | :07:59. | :08:03. | |
putting up with their! Phenomenal conditions. Take a look at this | :08:04. | :08:08. | |
video to get a sense of the scale of what's happening. These are | :08:09. | :08:11. | |
satellite pictures over the last fortnight. Britain is in the top | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
right-hand corner. You can see this barrage of storms crossing the | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
Atlantic, driven by the jet stream. The Met Office says they reckon the | :08:22. | :08:27. | |
path of the jet stream is partly governed by the cold spell we've | :08:28. | :08:31. | |
heard about in America. That was partly the result of a jet stream in | :08:32. | :08:34. | |
the Pacific so there's a kind of global chain reaction in the weather | :08:35. | :08:39. | |
and right now, unfortunately, we are at the wrong end of it. We hear | :08:40. | :08:43. | |
people saying this is about climate change. Scientists who study this so | :08:44. | :08:48. | |
they cannot give a definitive answer to that. More research us to be | :08:49. | :08:52. | |
undertaken. But they point to a couple of things. One is unusually | :08:53. | :08:56. | |
warm to bridge is in the Atlantic waters, which can drive the increase | :08:57. | :09:03. | |
in the atmosphere. Secondly, they talk about increasing intensity of | :09:04. | :09:05. | |
the storms the Atlantic. Nothing definitive. But if global warming is | :09:06. | :09:13. | |
involved, there will probably be more scenes like this in the days | :09:14. | :09:15. | |
and weeks ahead. Well, as we've seen, the storm is | :09:16. | :09:19. | |
bringing more rain with it. Today, the Prime Minister repeated his | :09:20. | :09:22. | |
pledge to spare no effort in helping flooded communities to get back on | :09:23. | :09:26. | |
their feet. He said ?5,000 will be available for households and | :09:27. | :09:28. | |
businesses to protect their properties for the future. There'll | :09:29. | :09:35. | |
be a ?10 million fund for farmers. And businesses could qualify for a | :09:36. | :09:41. | |
100% rate relief. But, of course, the crisis isn't | :09:42. | :09:44. | |
over for thousands of people. Our environment correspondent Claire | :09:45. | :09:54. | |
Marshall is in Datchet. You can see, George, the centre of | :09:55. | :09:59. | |
Datchet is still under water. The people here were first flooded in | :10:00. | :10:03. | |
January. The first thing they put on in the morning is a pair of | :10:04. | :10:06. | |
Wellington boots. There has been military action here over the course | :10:07. | :10:09. | |
of the day and people are just getting used to what life is like in | :10:10. | :10:15. | |
a flood zone. The new landscape of southern | :10:16. | :10:19. | |
England - ground water levels at record highs and it could be like | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
this for months. Look closer. What is actually in the floodwater? We | :10:25. | :10:30. | |
brought a microbiologist to a Surrey home. The Thames is now running | :10:31. | :10:37. | |
through this house. It is a small abs all but pad and it has been | :10:38. | :10:45. | |
soaked in a substance which is a food that encourages the growth of | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
certain bacteria. This testing kit has been used in disaster zones all | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
over the world, from the Congo to the Philippines. Inside, a cosy | :10:54. | :10:59. | |
environment for bacteria, trapped on the membrane, fed and multiplied. | :11:00. | :11:06. | |
The results won't be pleasant. Today, it's a 16 hours on and the | :11:07. | :11:11. | |
storms are back again. But the results are in. Let's see what's in | :11:12. | :11:18. | |
the floodwater. It shows a high-level of contamination of the | :11:19. | :11:20. | |
bacteria associated with faecal matter. If you can avoid it, don't | :11:21. | :11:24. | |
go near it and make sure you take essential precautions. But it isn't | :11:25. | :11:29. | |
just the physical dangers of the floods - it's the mental pressures. | :11:30. | :11:34. | |
Darren's just heard things might get much worse and history may be | :11:35. | :11:39. | |
flooded to save another larger area. -- his street. The last thing we | :11:40. | :11:45. | |
heard is that the army are considering putting a complete | :11:46. | :11:47. | |
sandbag wall down the centre of the road and flooding these houses even | :11:48. | :11:52. | |
more. They're talking one metre, to save others. Which I can understand | :11:53. | :11:58. | |
but is not nice news to hear when you are fighting day and night. And | :11:59. | :12:05. | |
it is affecting his family. It's the only house I've grown up in and the | :12:06. | :12:09. | |
fact that they might flood us to save other people - well, they say | :12:10. | :12:14. | |
they're saving other people - I don't think it's fair. But how do | :12:15. | :12:21. | |
you react to this - a situation that has never been faced before? At | :12:22. | :12:29. | |
today's Cobra committee meeting, the man coordinating the military | :12:30. | :12:34. | |
response said that two -- 2000 military personnel are involved. | :12:35. | :12:39. | |
I've seen a fair bit of command and control in my career and we're | :12:40. | :12:42. | |
seeing a really good multi-agency co-ordinated effort. It's a really, | :12:43. | :12:47. | |
located problem in the face of an unparalleled natural crisis. | :12:48. | :12:53. | |
Difficult decisions are being taken in other parts of the country. In | :12:54. | :12:58. | |
Winchester, these sandbags will block the river itching. It will | :12:59. | :13:02. | |
save 100 homes but sent millions of gallons of floodwater elsewhere. -- | :13:03. | :13:13. | |
River Itchen. Here, ?10 million has been spent on defences. They have | :13:14. | :13:15. | |
been built up and are holding for the moment. | :13:16. | :13:19. | |
And you can get all the latest on the severe weather on the BBC News | :13:20. | :13:21. | |
website - that's bbc.co.uk/news. And there are, of course,pdates on your | :13:22. | :13:29. | |
BBC Local Radio and TV stations. In today's other news, two men have | :13:30. | :13:32. | |
been found guilty of helping Joanna Dennehy - the woman who admitted | :13:33. | :13:35. | |
killing three men in Cambridgeshire last March. Gary Stretch was | :13:36. | :13:39. | |
convicted of attempted murder; Leslie Layton was found guilty of | :13:40. | :13:44. | |
preventing the burial of two men. Ed Thomas reports. | :13:45. | :13:52. | |
A female serial killer like no other. Joanna Dennehy wanted to kill | :13:53. | :13:57. | |
as many men as she could, painfully and violently. Today, her | :13:58. | :14:03. | |
accomplices were found guilty at Cambridge Crown Court. This man, | :14:04. | :14:10. | |
seven Gary Stretch, helped her. So too did petty criminal Leslie | :14:11. | :14:14. | |
Layton. For the first time, those who face the killer can tell their | :14:15. | :14:18. | |
stories. What could you see her doing? Stabbing me repeatedly. She | :14:19. | :14:25. | |
was stabbing me in the chest. Speaking exclusively to BBC News, | :14:26. | :14:30. | |
John Rogers was stabbed 40 times by John Dennehy as he walked his dog. | :14:31. | :14:39. | |
-- Joanna Dennehy. She said, "look, you're bleeding. I'd better do so | :14:40. | :14:45. | |
more". When it did finally stop, I just thought, "well, this is it. I'm | :14:46. | :14:53. | |
going to die". This police CCTV was taken minutes after she attacked | :14:54. | :14:57. | |
John Rogers. She was calm, even joking. Listen to her answer when | :14:58. | :15:00. | |
asked if she is dependent on drugs. That hectic week began here in pita | :15:01. | :15:16. | |
bread, with three murders. The first to die was her boyfriend, Lukasz | :15:17. | :15:22. | |
Slaboszewski. Next was John Chapman, her housemate. The final | :15:23. | :15:26. | |
victim was Kevin Lee, her landlord and lover. All were stabbed through | :15:27. | :15:32. | |
the heart. The bodies were taken here, dumped and forgotten, murdered | :15:33. | :15:37. | |
by Joanna Dennehy, someone they thought was a friend. Someone they | :15:38. | :15:42. | |
thought they could trust. Instead, they were all killed for her own | :15:43. | :15:47. | |
enjoyment. And all this from a mother once responsible for two | :15:48. | :15:51. | |
children. By the time she killed, she was an alcoholic who had | :15:52. | :15:56. | |
abandoned her family. I hope she never sees daylight again, ever. | :15:57. | :16:02. | |
This is Joanna Dennehy's sister. In her first TV interview, she said | :16:03. | :16:06. | |
Joanna rebelled. The child they once knew became someone they no longer | :16:07. | :16:11. | |
recognised. There was a girl that we loved and then turned into a | :16:12. | :16:15. | |
monster. I don't think you can describe it any other way. Can you | :16:16. | :16:19. | |
understand at all why she's done this? No and, to be honest, I don't | :16:20. | :16:26. | |
think I'd want to understand how a human being is capable of doing so | :16:27. | :16:31. | |
much damage. So, what motivated to an Dennehy, a psychopath with | :16:32. | :16:35. | |
several personality disorders? On the run from police, she came to | :16:36. | :16:40. | |
this house. Inside was Sean Keeble, one of the few to ask her why. She | :16:41. | :16:45. | |
just felt happy that she was like a murderer or something. She told us | :16:46. | :16:50. | |
she was wanting to write a book about it. She wanted to be a serial | :16:51. | :16:54. | |
killer, someone well-known and write a book and be famous. And with this, | :16:55. | :17:01. | |
no remorse or regret. Joanna Dennehy will be sentenced next week. | :17:02. | :17:08. | |
Our top story this evening: Hurricane force winds batter | :17:09. | :17:14. | |
Britain. The Met Office issues its first red warning of the winter. | :17:15. | :17:16. | |
And coming up. Are you not a little old for that? | :17:17. | :17:27. | |
Yes. We talk to George Clooney about the | :17:28. | :17:30. | |
inspiration for his latest film. Later on BBC London: The animal | :17:31. | :17:34. | |
victims of the floods. We're with the rescuers taking pets and | :17:35. | :17:36. | |
livestock to safety. And the man who inspired Beyonce. | :17:37. | :17:38. | |
The incredible Japanese dancer bringing his ground-breaking moves | :17:39. | :17:39. | |
to London. Interest rates are likely to stay at | :17:40. | :17:51. | |
their record low level of half of one per cent, despite strong growth | :17:52. | :17:53. | |
forecasts and unexpectedly good unemployment figures. That was the | :17:54. | :18:02. | |
guidance from the Bank of England 's opener Mark Carney today. But he | :18:03. | :18:10. | |
warned that Britain 's recovery was "neither balanced nor sustainable" | :18:11. | :18:11. | |
as yet. Our chief economics correspondent, Hugh Pym, reports. | :18:12. | :18:19. | |
Forward guidance and interest rates, was Mark Carney 's big idea when he | :18:20. | :18:24. | |
arrived Bank of England last summer, today the government faced with | :18:25. | :18:27. | |
unexpected developments in the economy had to announce an overhaul. | :18:28. | :18:30. | |
Growth is stronger this year and lower -- and he believes the repair | :18:31. | :18:38. | |
job in the economy is not yet complete. The economy is not yet | :18:39. | :18:47. | |
balanced or sustainable. A few quarters of a love trend growth or | :18:48. | :18:55. | |
not sufficient. One illustration of the possible level of Banchory in | :18:56. | :19:01. | |
the medium term can be derived from the latest forecast of the bank that | :19:02. | :19:05. | |
is based on a market curve which itself approaches only 2% interest | :19:06. | :19:12. | |
rate three years from now. This is a change of tactic by the Governor and | :19:13. | :19:15. | |
his colleagues at the bank, it interest rate decisions had been | :19:16. | :19:20. | |
focused on unemployment falling to a certain level but now the 7% | :19:21. | :19:24. | |
threshold has nearly been reached, policymakers will concentrate on a | :19:25. | :19:30. | |
range of economic variables. So what do businesses make of it? This | :19:31. | :19:34. | |
Barnsley -based engineering firm invested in new machinery after the | :19:35. | :19:38. | |
Bank of England 's assurances about low rate last summer. The boss has | :19:39. | :19:44. | |
urged the bank not to abandon its commitment to keeping a lid on | :19:45. | :19:48. | |
borrowing. We would like to see interest rates remaining glow and | :19:49. | :19:51. | |
knowing what is going to happen in the long term is important. -- | :19:52. | :19:57. | |
while. Critics argued the Bank of England 's and ability has been | :19:58. | :20:01. | |
dented because it forecast was wrong and it has dropped the threshold. | :20:02. | :20:06. | |
The bank argues it simply moved into a new phase and the challenge now is | :20:07. | :20:16. | |
how to communicate its views. The BBC has learned the | :20:17. | :20:18. | |
Conservatives, Labour and the Liberal Democrats were declared | :20:19. | :20:21. | |
tomorrow whether forms a government will not agree to allow an | :20:22. | :20:26. | |
independent Scotland to use the pound. Our correspondent is in | :20:27. | :20:35. | |
Westminster. George Osborne and as that -- and Ed | :20:36. | :20:41. | |
Balls are agreeing, and Danny Alexander. We say the weather is in | :20:42. | :20:46. | |
the Treasury after the next election, whatever government it is, | :20:47. | :20:52. | |
Tory or Labour or a coalition, they would not agree to share the pound | :20:53. | :20:57. | |
with an independent of Scotland if the people of Scotland folk that we | :20:58. | :21:02. | |
in the referendum this September. They were speaking after the | :21:03. | :21:05. | |
publication of a Treasury review written by civil servants and not | :21:06. | :21:09. | |
politicians that say each country would underwrite each other 's banks | :21:10. | :21:15. | |
and spending policies. The SNP say it is threats and a deal could be | :21:16. | :21:19. | |
reached and the three parties are saying, forget it, no way, it will | :21:20. | :21:23. | |
not happen. Thank you. | :21:24. | :21:26. | |
The BBC has learned the identity of the first British suicide bomber to | :21:27. | :21:30. | |
blow himself up in Syria. He has been named as Abdul Waheed Majid, a | :21:31. | :21:35. | |
41-year-old from Sussex. He is believed to have carried out a | :21:36. | :21:37. | |
suicide truck bombing in Aleppo last Thursday. Detectives from the South | :21:38. | :21:42. | |
East Counter Terrorism Unit have spent the morning searching his | :21:43. | :21:49. | |
address in Crawley. Our home affairs correspondent, Matt Prodger, | :21:50. | :21:52. | |
reports. This is Abdul Waheed Majid, a father | :21:53. | :21:57. | |
of three from Crawley in Sussex. And this is his house, today searched by | :21:58. | :22:02. | |
police who believe he carried out a suicide bombing in Syria. His family | :22:03. | :22:08. | |
await confirmation. They last spoke to him six days ago, they thought he | :22:09. | :22:15. | |
was an aid worker in refugee camps. The family is quite shocked, | :22:16. | :22:20. | |
devastated. Quite confused, because they are getting this news from | :22:21. | :22:27. | |
different sources. All they are hoping and waiting for is that | :22:28. | :22:32. | |
somebody somewhere broken firmware he is. -- will confirm. If Abdul | :22:33. | :22:48. | |
Waheed Majid was indeed involved... It was driven into Aleppo. | :22:49. | :22:57. | |
Neighbours in Sussex find it hard to believe. | :22:58. | :23:03. | |
He was always friendly, jovial. I am shocked, I feel sick. What else can | :23:04. | :23:10. | |
you say? The BBC has been told the man who lived here, Abdul Waheed | :23:11. | :23:15. | |
Majid, used to be part of a group run by radical Islamists in Crawley, | :23:16. | :23:20. | |
another member of that group was jailed for life for plotting to bomb | :23:21. | :23:26. | |
targets. Not in Syria, but in the UK. Tonight, police say no arrests | :23:27. | :23:32. | |
have been made, there is increasing concern that the radicalisation of | :23:33. | :23:39. | |
British men travelling to Syria find. | :23:40. | :23:48. | |
During World War Two, a small group of men managed to get behind enemy | :23:49. | :23:52. | |
lines and retrieve art work which had been stolen by the Nazis. The | :23:53. | :23:54. | |
Hollywood star George Clooney was so inspired by the story that he | :23:55. | :23:58. | |
decided to make a film about it. So he wrote, produced, directed and | :23:59. | :24:01. | |
then gave himself a starring role in The Monuments Men. He has spoken to | :24:02. | :24:04. | |
our arts editor Will Gompertz at the National Gallery in London. | :24:05. | :24:09. | |
You have been tasked for finding and protect over 5 million pieces of | :24:10. | :24:16. | |
stolen art. The Monuments Men was a wartime | :24:17. | :24:19. | |
collective who took on the task of finding art looted by the Nazis and | :24:20. | :24:25. | |
returning it to the museums and collectors from which it had been | :24:26. | :24:27. | |
thundered. What was it about this story you wanted to pursue? | :24:28. | :24:32. | |
It was my producer and writing partner, Grant, we were sitting on | :24:33. | :24:37. | |
the floor of my office and we said every film we do is cynical and | :24:38. | :24:47. | |
angry, and have we, -- and angry. We should do something that has got a | :24:48. | :24:52. | |
happy ending, where the good guys will win. This is a model of his | :24:53. | :24:56. | |
planned museum. One of the biggest in the world. | :24:57. | :25:03. | |
It will be hard to fill it. Hitler bombed London. I know. | :25:04. | :25:11. | |
It is a tricky subject. You mention Rembrandt and people start snoring. | :25:12. | :25:17. | |
I do not know much about art, I grew up in Kentucky, what we came to | :25:18. | :25:23. | |
understand was in telling this story that it was so much less about a | :25:24. | :25:26. | |
specific piece of art and so much more about Hitler was trained to | :25:27. | :25:31. | |
do, which was systematically not just kill you and conquer you, but | :25:32. | :25:39. | |
to make it as if you never existed. It hasn't had fantastic views. It | :25:40. | :25:46. | |
was received well in Germany and Italy, sometimes you hit the box. | :25:47. | :25:52. | |
I sat at the premiere and they loved it and they cheered, I have been | :25:53. | :25:57. | |
beaten up a lot. Millions of pieces of art were found | :25:58. | :26:01. | |
and returned but thousands more remain missing or the ownership is | :26:02. | :26:06. | |
contested, suggesting there is still a role to play for The Monuments Men | :26:07. | :26:10. | |
today. The last time we tried, our link | :26:11. | :26:23. | |
broke down because conditions were bad, it was looking atrocious. | :26:24. | :26:31. | |
It is absolutely extraordinary here. Like Paul is blowing all over the | :26:32. | :26:39. | |
place. -- back Paul. Various disruption across the Northwest. | :26:40. | :26:44. | |
Most notably on the road where the M6 has been closed and the 62 closed | :26:45. | :26:50. | |
high sided vehicles, and the railways, the West Coast Main is | :26:51. | :26:57. | |
being disrupted and close. Because from Euston, Virgin Trains have | :26:58. | :27:00. | |
suspended services. And we are hearing about damaged stations at | :27:01. | :27:10. | |
Crewe. A fire began here. Also at Manchester Airport, it has been | :27:11. | :27:13. | |
damaged because of high winds. Crewe station, 500 people have been taken | :27:14. | :27:21. | |
to nearby hotels. This is not the worst yet. Wind speeds have reached | :27:22. | :27:31. | |
up to 98 mph. Time to get out of the wind! | :27:32. | :27:37. | |
Time for a look at the all-important weather. Here is Jay Wynne. | :27:38. | :27:44. | |
Has been incredible weather today, wet weather and the strength of wind | :27:45. | :27:53. | |
has been incredible, an unusual red weatherworn ink from the Met Office. | :27:54. | :27:59. | |
-- red weather warning. Only take a journey if it is absolutely | :28:00. | :28:06. | |
necessary. A large part of the UK can expect very violent winds. This | :28:07. | :28:12. | |
is the culprit, cloud and low-pressure coming in from the | :28:13. | :28:16. | |
Atlantic. Bringing further strong winds and heavy rainfall. Let's | :28:17. | :28:21. | |
focus on the winds, it using down, but still 90 mph or more into the | :28:22. | :28:28. | |
West of Wales -- using down. 89 per hour gusts across the North West of | :28:29. | :28:33. | |
England. The Isle of Man getting a battering, and parts of Northern | :28:34. | :28:37. | |
Ireland. Over the Pennines, atrocious travelling conditions | :28:38. | :28:59. | |
here. Rain, snow, gales, it keep up-to-date on your local radio. At | :29:00. | :29:01. | |
the centre of that low pressure, more of that tonight. A bit of snow | :29:02. | :29:08. | |
in Northern Ireland and further South. As temperatures get close -- | :29:09. | :29:13. | |
get close to freezing, a risk of ice on Thursday. A better day, no heavy | :29:14. | :29:21. | |
and persistent rains, but winds not as blustery. Sunny spells and wintry | :29:22. | :29:26. | |
showers from the West to the East, top temperature, seven, eight | :29:27. | :29:30. | |
agrees. Will it calmed down by the end of the week? No. Had Russia | :29:31. | :29:36. | |
heading our way and wet and windy again. That is all from | :29:37. | :29:37. |
