Hello and welcome to BBC Points West. In the headlines tonight: | :00:11. | :00:15. | |
Bristol becomes the focus of the World's media. The Jo Yeates' | :00:15. | :00:20. | |
murder trial gets underway amid international interest. | :00:20. | :00:24. | |
Getting backed into a corner. The council defying the government over | :00:25. | :00:28. | |
changes to disabled driving permits. Also tonight: Who's going to | :00:28. | :00:33. | |
replace Keith Millen as manager at Bristol City? We'll have the latest. | :00:33. | :00:36. | |
And inspiring the next generation of athletes. Why a Bristol school | :00:36. | :00:46. | |
:00:46. | :00:47. | ||
is launching a wheelchair Good evening. First, news crews | :00:47. | :00:50. | |
from across the world descended on Bristol today for the start of the | :00:50. | :00:56. | |
Jo Yeates murder trial. The Dutch architect Vincent Tabak | :00:56. | :00:59. | |
appeared in the dock accused of the murder of the 25-year-old. And by | :00:59. | :01:03. | |
the end of the day, the 12 members of the jury had been selected. Our | :01:03. | :01:07. | |
Home Affairs Correspondent, Steve Brodie was there. | :01:07. | :01:10. | |
Journalists and photographers from all over Europe here to witness the | :01:10. | :01:14. | |
start of this high profile trial. 25-year-old Jo Yeates disappeared | :01:14. | :01:19. | |
last December. Her body was found on Christmas morning beside a road | :01:19. | :01:23. | |
near Long Ashton. She had been strangled. | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
Dutch national, Vincent Tabak, sat in the glass panelled dock dressed | :01:26. | :01:30. | |
in a dark suit, dark tie and wearing glasses. He listened | :01:30. | :01:34. | |
intently as lawyers discussed how the trial will be run. The first | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
decision of the judge, Mr Justice Field, was that professional | :01:36. | :01:43. | |
journalists could use twitter to cover the hearing. | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
As two security guards sat behind him, he spoke only to confirm his | :01:46. | :01:50. | |
name. Vincent Tabak has already pleaded guilty to the manslaughter | :01:50. | :01:55. | |
of Jo. Tomorrow the jury will be sworn in and then there will be a | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
delay for legal argument and the trial is expected to begin on | :01:58. | :02:08. | |
Families who were affected by the allegations of abuse at | :02:08. | :02:10. | |
Winterbourne View private hospital in South Gloucetsershire have been | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
invited to a public meeting to discuss the investigation into what | :02:13. | :02:19. | |
happened there. Specialist lawyers will be on hand to help people with | :02:19. | :02:24. | |
their compensation claims. The meeting's also likely to offer help | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
to families who had relatives at other Castlebeck run homes, such as | :02:27. | :02:34. | |
Rose Villa in Bristol. A fire has ripped through the roofs | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
of two properties in Wellington. Smoke was seen billowing from a row | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
of houses in Clifford Terrace at lunchtime today. A man and a woman | :02:42. | :02:46. | |
received medical attention at the scene. It's not known what caused | :02:46. | :02:49. | |
the fire. Senior Conservatives are trying to | :02:49. | :02:53. | |
calm fears that countryside in the West is in danger if ministers go | :02:53. | :02:58. | |
ahead and simplify planning regulations. Their plans have | :02:58. | :03:00. | |
sparked criticism that it could become much easier for developers | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
to dig up green fields. Our political editor Paul Barltrop is | :03:04. | :03:13. | |
at the Conservative conference in Manchester. | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
One of the themes of this year's conference has been cutting through | :03:16. | :03:20. | |
red tape and that is what the government wants to do with the | :03:20. | :03:25. | |
planning system. 1000 pages of regulations will be pruned to about | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
50. It is one phrase in particular that has put the cat among the | :03:29. | :03:34. | |
pigeons. The proposed reforms at the gate a | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
presumption in favour of sustainable development. Some fear | :03:37. | :03:42. | |
that will put our green fields in danger. Those campaigning against | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
it include the National Trust. Staff from their Swindon head | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
office have been touring the conference lobbying politicians. | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
What we fear will happen is that developers will bring forward | :03:54. | :03:58. | |
development in inappropriate places and local authority will find it | :03:58. | :04:01. | |
difficult to turn that down because if they do, the developer will | :04:01. | :04:06. | |
appeal. Because of the way documents are written, their appeal | :04:06. | :04:11. | |
will be upheld. At the conference, leadership have tried to reassure | :04:11. | :04:16. | |
rank and file his instincts are in every sense conservative. The | :04:16. | :04:21. | |
Secretary of State insists the fears are exaggerated. We need a | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
system which is quicker and provide greater certainty for local firms | :04:25. | :04:31. | |
and local residents. It is not a choice between the countryside all | :04:31. | :04:38. | |
concrete. Our countryside is one of the best things that makes Britain | :04:38. | :04:43. | |
great and we will protect it. areas of the West pursue new | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
housing developments. Often there has been strong opposition from | :04:47. | :04:52. | |
local communities. MPs like to be on their side. Chris Skidmore | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
reckons that helped him win his seat from Labour. He backs the | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
government reforms, but believes there must be more houses built. | :05:00. | :05:04. | |
We have got to have a debate about the fact that there are hundreds of | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
thousands of people on waiting list. Hundreds of thousands of young | :05:08. | :05:13. | |
people, as our population grows, who need to the owls. We have got | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
to decide where we want those houses to be built. This tussle is | :05:17. | :05:23. | |
far from over. Behind the scenes, people have been invited to talk to | :05:24. | :05:28. | |
ministers. At the moment it is at the consultation phase. It could be | :05:28. | :05:33. | |
next year that we find out what comes of these proposals. | :05:33. | :05:39. | |
You are watching BBC Points West. There is plenty more to tell you | :05:39. | :05:43. | |
about including the one of documentary about organ donation. | :05:43. | :05:48. | |
We find out what the programme hopes to achieve. | :05:48. | :05:54. | |
And, say hi to hydrogen. We meet the scientist trying to get | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
schoolchildren fired up about chemistry. | :05:58. | :06:03. | |
That is to come, but first, the council in world share claims the | :06:03. | :06:06. | |
Government's many of bring them into a tight spot over disabled | :06:06. | :06:10. | |
parking permits. At the moment, drivers in will share get them for | :06:10. | :06:15. | |
nothing, but a new system is being bought in that will make the whole | :06:15. | :06:19. | |
system complicated and more expensive. | :06:19. | :06:24. | |
The blue parking badge, there are 24,000 of them in circulation in | :06:24. | :06:28. | |
Wiltshire alone. Of course, we would all like a parking privileges | :06:28. | :06:33. | |
that they bring, but nobody wants the disability or illness that it | :06:33. | :06:38. | |
Now the rules are being tightened and getting a badge may be more | :06:38. | :06:42. | |
difficult than squeezing into a small space. The council in | :06:42. | :06:45. | |
Wiltshire is simply refusing to go along with the Government's new | :06:45. | :06:51. | |
regulations. The new form this 22 pages of form | :06:51. | :06:55. | |
and 27 pages of guidance. I think it is over the top and they should | :06:55. | :07:00. | |
make a simple system for areas where there is not a lot of fraud. | :07:00. | :07:04. | |
Will show council says it already has a system cracked. It is blue | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
badges out free to drivers in emergencies in 48 hours. The | :07:08. | :07:13. | |
application is simple and the cost is less than �5 per badge. Under | :07:13. | :07:19. | |
the new system, drivers would have to pay �10, fill in that | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
complicated 22 page application and the processing cost would be three | :07:22. | :07:29. | |
times higher, �15.20. Disabled parking originally with | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
orange badges was introduced in 1970, but from day one they have | :07:33. | :07:38. | |
been open to abuse. This fit furniture remover was caught with a | :07:38. | :07:43. | |
badge in his windscreen. What we are having in place of the outdated | :07:43. | :07:47. | |
system is one more resilient to fraud. It is not just people in | :07:47. | :07:51. | |
Welsher, people from outside the area can come in with their blue | :07:51. | :07:54. | |
badges and people from Wiltshire can go elsewhere with their blue | :07:54. | :07:58. | |
badges. It is important we have a system that emanates fraud and make | :07:58. | :08:08. | |
:08:08. | :08:09. | ||
sure parking spaces are available for those who need them. Do you use | :08:09. | :08:14. | |
the library? Do you go to the Post Office? The Blue badge is vital. | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
is wonderful for us to have the badge. The government things far | :08:18. | :08:24. | |
too many families are using ground dance parking permit -- parking | :08:24. | :08:30. | |
pass long after he needs it. Will show council do not think it is a | :08:30. | :08:33. | |
problem and one to extend the scheme for patients suffering with | :08:34. | :08:38. | |
dementia and injured soldiers coming back from Afghanistan. | :08:38. | :08:42. | |
In the last few minutes, the Transport Secretary has said he | :08:42. | :08:45. | |
will now look at a compromise for will show. | :08:45. | :08:49. | |
This time yesterday, we were telling you how Bristol City had | :08:49. | :08:54. | |
parted company with Keith Millen. 24 hour later, the hunt is on for a | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
new manager. Many Names have been put forward, | :08:57. | :09:04. | |
some familiar, some less for. What is the latest their adulation? | :09:04. | :09:09. | |
All speculation although I can bring you one fact, Steve Wigley | :09:09. | :09:15. | |
says he will not be applying for the job. Opiate and Louis Carey | :09:15. | :09:18. | |
said they were disappointed at Keith Millen's departure and the | :09:18. | :09:23. | |
desperate need to bring about that change in the club's fortunes. | :09:23. | :09:26. | |
think everybody knows there were not too many people who worked hard | :09:27. | :09:31. | |
so there is a real shame and it is really sad it has not panned out | :09:31. | :09:38. | |
the way he had expected. A what I expect for the next few days, we | :09:39. | :09:42. | |
are going to have to work very hard. Some of the lads that have been | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
around the team and not playing, we will be telling them they will be | :09:46. | :09:50. | |
doing a bit extra to top them up and they are in the best possible | :09:50. | :09:56. | |
shape for the new manager. David, who are the names in the frame? | :09:56. | :10:00. | |
carried out as many as you like. This particular bookmaker has 14 | :10:00. | :10:07. | |
names. Mark Robins is the top of theirs. And Rotherham manager | :10:07. | :10:11. | |
recently. Any list like this will include out-of-work managers at | :10:11. | :10:16. | |
this level. Managers and agents are keen to put their name forward just | :10:16. | :10:21. | |
to be his their profile. Others include Dave Jones, the former | :10:21. | :10:27. | |
Cardiff boss. Billy Davies recently sacked by Nottingham Forest. Sean | :10:27. | :10:31. | |
O'Driscoll of Doncaster Rovers and many bets have been placed on Derek | :10:31. | :10:37. | |
McInnes. How Carsley is it going to be for City to get rid of Keith | :10:37. | :10:42. | |
Millen? It is not cheap. He signed a three-year contract last August. | :10:42. | :10:46. | |
What normally happens is they pay out part of the contract and the | :10:46. | :10:50. | |
manager is free to go off and seek another job. That would not have | :10:50. | :10:54. | |
been a major concern, they did want to hang on and hope that Keith | :10:54. | :11:00. | |
Millen could achieve success, but Saturday's defeat forced their hand. | :11:00. | :11:03. | |
The League managers' Association said today that the total cost of | :11:03. | :11:09. | |
getting rid of managers last season was �100 million. The average life | :11:09. | :11:14. | |
expectancy of a manager in the championship is just 12 months. | :11:14. | :11:17. | |
There is Bobby Gould the former manager of Bristol Rovers. He said | :11:17. | :11:22. | |
when you get a new job as a manager, do not move house. | :11:22. | :11:26. | |
More of the sports, there is football tonight in the Johnsons | :11:26. | :11:31. | |
paint trophy. Swindon are at Exeter, Cheltenham at Whitcombe and Yeovil | :11:31. | :11:37. | |
play at Bournemouth. There is BBC local radio commentary. Millfield | :11:37. | :11:42. | |
School in Somerset has been chosen as a training base for the Russian | :11:42. | :11:47. | |
Olympic swimming team. The squad will be using Millfield's swimming | :11:47. | :11:50. | |
pool for 11 days in the run-up to next year's Games. | :11:50. | :11:56. | |
In rugby, Gloucester may not have their outspoken Samoan player back | :11:56. | :12:01. | |
from the World Cup as soon as they would like. He has been suspended | :12:01. | :12:04. | |
by the International Rugby Board after failing to appear at a | :12:04. | :12:10. | |
judicial hearing in Auckland. He said he was not informed. He | :12:10. | :12:14. | |
criticised Nigel Owens on a social networking website and will remain | :12:14. | :12:17. | |
suspended until the new hearing can be held. | :12:17. | :12:21. | |
Final preparations for this is Weston Beach race are nearly | :12:21. | :12:25. | |
complete. The course is being carved into the sand and some | :12:25. | :12:30. | |
riders have been giving it a test run today. 400 have signed up for | :12:31. | :12:35. | |
the motorbike so they event and 200 for the quad bikes. Organisers say | :12:35. | :12:40. | |
upwards of 90,000 people are expected to watch. All very | :12:40. | :12:43. | |
spectacular. Thank you very much. | :12:43. | :12:48. | |
It is not every day and Olympic medallist comes to coach at your P | :12:48. | :12:51. | |
E lesson, but that is what youngsters in Yeovil were treated | :12:51. | :12:56. | |
to today along with the chance to try a new sport. There is a try to | :12:56. | :13:00. | |
get more wheelchair basketball played in schools and in Somerset, | :13:00. | :13:06. | |
thousands of pounds have been raped two sub -- at raised to provide | :13:06. | :13:11. | |
much-needed equipment. James Browning won a gold as part | :13:11. | :13:15. | |
of the American wheelchair basketball team in 2004. Today, she | :13:15. | :13:19. | |
is sharing year eight and that you do not have to be disabled to | :13:19. | :13:24. | |
enjoyed the sport. Every time you see that Kidd have that moment | :13:24. | :13:29. | |
where they go, this is so firm, and that realisation that they can do | :13:29. | :13:33. | |
that is something I can do. I obviously have a special place in | :13:33. | :13:38. | |
my heart for any kid with a disability that has that feeling. | :13:38. | :13:43. | |
They may think they can't do it and then suddenly they Belfast and | :13:43. | :13:49. | |
sporty and that sensation is what we are going for. I thought it was | :13:49. | :13:53. | |
really fun and exciting. It was not that easy to control because you | :13:53. | :14:03. | |
:14:03. | :14:08. | ||
are not going as fast and it is It made you think about other ways | :14:08. | :14:12. | |
of doing sport. It's one of a series of sessions that's all about | :14:12. | :14:19. | |
being inclusive. A lot of children in mainstream schools don't take | :14:20. | :14:25. | |
part in PE lessons. They don't join in team games. This is fun because | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
it is a team game. A school could have these chairs, use them for | :14:29. | :14:33. | |
their PE lessons, and put the whole class in. Sports wheelchairs aren't | :14:33. | :14:38. | |
cheap. These ones have been specially designed by a company | :14:38. | :14:41. | |
called Motivation, based in the West. The money for them was raised | :14:41. | :14:48. | |
by local people. The thing that lives with me are the words of a | :14:48. | :14:52. | |
couple of disabled athletes who said, finding sport changed their | :14:52. | :14:56. | |
lives completely. If that happens for one or two of the kids in the | :14:56. | :15:00. | |
area, it has been a fantastic project. It's hoped the new | :15:00. | :15:02. | |
equipment will inspire more youngsters to try wheelchair | :15:02. | :15:05. | |
basketball and maybe even uncover the next generation of Paralympians | :15:05. | :15:12. | |
at the same time. A one-off documentary is being | :15:12. | :15:15. | |
broadcast on BBC1 tonight which gives a rare insight into organ | :15:15. | :15:19. | |
donation. It follows the process from start | :15:19. | :15:22. | |
to finish and demonstrates how one person's death can lead to a number | :15:23. | :15:32. | |
:15:33. | :15:34. | ||
of lives being saved. Let's take a look at the start of the programme. | :15:34. | :15:39. | |
There was a point she would not wake up and she bled again. They | :15:39. | :15:46. | |
take you into a room and there is a table on with a box of tissues and | :15:46. | :15:50. | |
at that point you know what is really bad. They were trying to | :15:50. | :15:58. | |
bring her back but they failed. It was not their fault. | :15:58. | :16:03. | |
This morning, Penney was declared brain stem dead. Of the 1,500 | :16:03. | :16:08. | |
people who die each day in the UK, she is just one of three who become | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
organ donors. Well, joining us in the studio is | :16:12. | :16:15. | |
Abigail Gill from the UK's Blood and Transplant Centre which is | :16:15. | :16:19. | |
based in Filton. Abigail, we heard a statistic there that 1,500 people | :16:19. | :16:23. | |
die in the UK every day and only three of them are organ donors. | :16:23. | :16:27. | |
What's your reaction to that? think it will surprise people that | :16:27. | :16:32. | |
so few deaths result in organ donation. But something that goes | :16:32. | :16:35. | |
some way to helping that is families talking about what their | :16:35. | :16:45. | |
:16:45. | :16:46. | ||
wishes are. The families will then know what decisions to make and | :16:46. | :16:54. | |
what he wishes are. Why do you think this programme is important? | :16:54. | :16:58. | |
It is important because to go through the story and show positive | :16:58. | :17:03. | |
outcomes, the people's lives who was saved by the receiving | :17:03. | :17:05. | |
transplants, three people die in the UK every day waiting for a | :17:05. | :17:10. | |
transplant and that is a very high number. For the 10,000 people on | :17:10. | :17:15. | |
the waiting list, there are only cure is to have a transplant. | :17:15. | :17:19. | |
a very honest documentary. We have got another clip which is graphic | :17:19. | :17:27. | |
in places. It looks like any ordinary surgery. | :17:27. | :17:30. | |
We tried very much to respect the donor as much as possible and treat | :17:30. | :17:35. | |
the body with respect. You are aware that it is the end of a life | :17:35. | :17:39. | |
but, you realise it is the beginning of so many other lives | :17:39. | :17:45. | |
from this one life. In this case, I think three lives | :17:45. | :17:53. | |
were saved. Is that common? It is. One person can save up to nine | :17:53. | :17:57. | |
people's lives just by donating their organs. A huge difference can | :17:57. | :18:02. | |
be made by one person. The key things that we would like people to | :18:02. | :18:06. | |
think about and families to think about is to talk with their | :18:06. | :18:10. | |
families and relatives about what their wishes are and may be signed | :18:10. | :18:16. | |
up on to the register so that their wishes can then be respected. | :18:16. | :18:21. | |
if they don't want to donate, to know either way that you do it or | :18:21. | :18:28. | |
not is important. Generally, when people do not to make, is it quite | :18:28. | :18:36. | |
often apathy? Or two people just not like the idea of it? 90 % of | :18:36. | :18:39. | |
the population support organ donation but a lot of people don't | :18:39. | :18:44. | |
get around to signing the register. However, that is not the problem. | :18:44. | :18:48. | |
As long as you let family members know what your wishes are and, in | :18:48. | :18:53. | |
the case of this programme, that is exactly what happens. The lady had | :18:53. | :18:57. | |
let the family know so they knew when the question was asked, they | :18:57. | :19:03. | |
knew what to answer. It is on at 10:35pm on BBC One. | :19:04. | :19:07. | |
A young musician who grew up in Wells is hoping his latest single | :19:07. | :19:12. | |
will be a hit in the charts. He's one half of an unsigned, little- | :19:12. | :19:16. | |
known pop duo called Bitter Ruin. And, without a manager, they have | :19:16. | :19:18. | |
celebrity backing on the social networking site Twitter to thank | :19:19. | :19:23. | |
for their success. The actor Stephen Fry tweeted a link to their | :19:23. | :19:26. | |
video to his three million followers on the internet site and | :19:26. | :19:30. | |
overnight it received thousands of views. Ria Chatterjee has this | :19:30. | :19:40. | |

If and manufactured music is one industry phrase way you to hearing, | :19:54. | :20:00. | |
this band could herald the start of a new one, the DIY band. Unsigned | :20:00. | :20:10. | |
and and managed. The huge Tyneside -- downside is the marketing and | :20:10. | :20:15. | |
promotion. We don't get any help from magazines. Everything we do is | :20:15. | :20:20. | |
s sat in a room with our laptops sending a press. We just rely on | :20:20. | :20:27. | |
word of mouth. They say they don't really fit into a particular | :20:27. | :20:37. | |
musical genre but a lot of their songs play out like a duel. They | :20:37. | :20:43. | |
have completed seven tours across the USA and Europe, written three | :20:43. | :20:47. | |
albums, and all the while used statist updates to create a fan- | :20:47. | :20:54. | |
base. Veteran Twitter member Stephen Fry said, I recommended | :20:54. | :21:01. | |
this already. Support independent art. After that one message, the | :21:01. | :21:08. | |
hits on their fatal link went up into the thousands. It is really | :21:08. | :21:11. | |
humbling when someone like Stephen Fry says he likes you music, in | :21:11. | :21:15. | |
particular because he gets thousands of people sent him | :21:15. | :21:22. | |
messages every day. He very rarely talks about music. Social | :21:22. | :21:26. | |
networking has become the two of choice for many musicians. The | :21:26. | :21:30. | |
Arctic Monty's broke through thanks to their own internet hype. Justin | :21:30. | :21:36. | |
be there was spotted after his own music videos were found on YouTube. | :21:36. | :21:40. | |
And Rebecca Black's video led to a hail of internet abuse as the worst | :21:40. | :21:48. | |
song ever. This band did all of their own groundwork to register on | :21:48. | :21:58. | |
:21:58. | :21:59. | ||
the charts. Now they are hoping to get a good spot. | :21:59. | :22:02. | |
It is the new way. Their mission - to inspire young | :22:02. | :22:05. | |
minds, to fire up enthusiasm and turn ordinary 10-year-olds into | :22:05. | :22:10. | |
wannabe scientists. Chemists, to be precise. | :22:10. | :22:12. | |
Today at Cheltenham Ladies' College, the secrets of forensics, liquid | :22:12. | :22:15. | |
nitrogen and chocolate were laid bare as part of a day-long | :22:15. | :22:24. | |
celebration of the science. Here's Jules Hyam. | :22:24. | :22:33. | |
Just how do you get this lot excited about hydrogen? Well, that | :22:33. | :22:43. | |

It is sometimes more like a magic show than a science lesson but that | :22:45. | :22:51. | |
is exactly what this is. Science. number of experiments we were doing | :22:51. | :22:55. | |
today were quite excitable for the youngsters, taking science they | :22:56. | :22:59. | |
already understand from the national curriculum to show them in | :22:59. | :23:02. | |
terms of chemicals they would get in schools because not many schools | :23:02. | :23:07. | |
will have access to such things, having to do explosions and using a | :23:07. | :23:11. | |
very cold materials excites them in their own rights. They only get to | :23:11. | :23:19. | |
see these experiments on YouTube. Let's see what happens to the | :23:19. | :23:25. | |
carnations in liquid nitrogen. We are calling our flowers down to - | :23:25. | :23:30. | |
196. Today it is all about the elements that exist in the air. | :23:30. | :23:34. | |
They are being used to freeze carnations and explode balloons. It | :23:34. | :23:37. | |
is all about getting these youngsters are thinking about | :23:37. | :23:42. | |
chemistry and how the world works. Part of the solution to the problem | :23:42. | :23:46. | |
of the planet at the moment with the climate change and resources, | :23:46. | :23:50. | |
it is the next bunch of scientists and engineers and journalists and | :23:50. | :23:53. | |
politicians. They need to have a good understanding of science for | :23:53. | :23:59. | |
us to tackle these problems. think it was really good. Really | :23:59. | :24:05. | |
exciting. I really liked it when he poured the liquid nitrogen on the | :24:05. | :24:11. | |
floor. I thought it was really cool because of all the loud bangs. | :24:11. | :24:15. | |
used to think it was quite ill because all we used to do was write | :24:15. | :24:22. | |
stuff and a draw but now I think it is fun because of the chemistry. | :24:22. | :24:25. | |
is quite nice when they spontaneously give you a round of | :24:25. | :24:28. | |
applause and I tell them, it is not me they are applauding but the | :24:28. | :24:34. | |
chemistry. Today, they certainly did. | :24:34. | :24:38. | |
They looked really excited. Brilliant. | :24:38. | :24:44. | |
I loved it. I did A-level in science. Let's turn to another | :24:44. | :24:51. | |
scientist who is going to help us So far things are going pretty much | :24:51. | :25:01. | |
to plan. Tomorrow will be a Foley warm day. There will be a variable | :25:01. | :25:05. | |
amount of cloud around. In the West, it will be thicker than a further | :25:05. | :25:08. | |
eastwards. But by the end of the day we will all see some spells of | :25:09. | :25:13. | |
rain. Things are changing courtesy of the fact we have had a weather | :25:13. | :25:20. | |
front straddled across the West Country. It is now going back north. | :25:20. | :25:23. | |
Tomorrow we will see things brightening up across eastern areas | :25:23. | :25:27. | |
but, later in the day, this cold front sweeps its way southwards and | :25:27. | :25:31. | |
that will introduce some rain and introduce some much cooler air from | :25:31. | :25:38. | |
the north-west. That will be a feature of the weather into the | :25:38. | :25:44. | |
weekend. This evening, we do have some patchy outbreaks of light rain. | :25:44. | :25:51. | |
Generally a good deal of cloud around. But under those conditions, | :25:51. | :25:58. | |
it will be a Foley mild night. Temperatures somewhere between 13 | :25:58. | :26:02. | |
and 15 degrees Celsius. Tomorrow we will get something of mixed | :26:02. | :26:10. | |
fortunes. If you are anywhere to the east of the M5, you have got a | :26:10. | :26:20. | |
:26:20. | :26:20. | ||
Foley good chance of the majority of the day being bright. And then | :26:20. | :26:24. | |
here comes that cold front. Some outbreaks of rain could be quite | :26:24. | :26:34. | |
:26:34. | :26:35. | ||
heavy. Quite windy by the evening period. Temperatures, having said | :26:35. | :26:40. | |
that, around 19 degree Celsius. That includes under the cloud cover. | :26:40. | :26:48. | |
If you get some sunshine, you might well touch about 20 degrees Celsius. | :26:48. | :26:58. | |
:26:58. | :26:59. | ||
The sea temperature still around 16 degrees Celsius. Things are going | :26:59. | :27:05. | |
to cool down. Once that cold front passes, behind that, we are into | :27:05. | :27:10. | |
this north-westerly flow and those temperatures will reflect that. 14 | :27:10. | :27:14. | |
Celsius at best on Thursday. A good deal of bright weather but some | :27:14. | :27:19. | |
showers as well. On Friday, with high pressure bridging up from the | :27:19. | :27:23. | |
south-west, still Foley cool. A reasonable part of Saturday should | :27:23. | :27:33. | |
:27:33. | :27:35. | ||
Those temperatures are half what we had last week. | :27:35. | :27:39. |
