so it's goodbye from me, and on BBC One we | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
Welcome to BBC Points West with Sabet Choudhury and Amanda Parr | :00:08. | :00:10. | |
Jailed for neglect ` the Gloucestershire couple who raised | :00:11. | :00:13. | |
Their father admits they let the children down. | :00:14. | :00:22. | |
It is a range of feelings. On my behalf, my wife's behold and social | :00:23. | :00:30. | |
services let us down in a bhg way. investigation has now begun | :00:31. | :00:33. | |
into what went wrong. Three years in jail for the woman | :00:34. | :00:40. | |
who took money to be a surrogate A seemingly innocent glass of wine | :00:41. | :01:05. | |
at lunch time, and I would be on my knees at a drug dealer's hotse. | :01:06. | :01:11. | |
They left five of their children living in squalor, infested with | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
Now a Gloucestershire coupld have been sentenced to prison for what's | :01:15. | :01:18. | |
been described as the "appalling neglect" of their children. | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
A judge at Gloucester crown court said the children suffered terribly, | :01:23. | :01:25. | |
and although they had not bden deliberately cruel, | :01:26. | :01:34. | |
their parents had been "stupid, stubborn and incompetent?. | :01:35. | :01:40. | |
Inside the house where fivd childre lived a life of squalor and suffered | :01:41. | :01:43. | |
Dirt`ridden carpets, soiled mattresses, | :01:44. | :01:45. | |
rubbish and clothes everywhdre The bedrooms smelt of urine | :01:46. | :01:48. | |
and animal faeces ` one of them even had ivy growing through the window. | :01:49. | :01:54. | |
The children suffered from a poor diet and terrible hygiene. | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
Those at school were ostrachsed ` one smelt so bad, | :01:58. | :01:59. | |
The children were often infdsted with head lice, which their mother | :02:00. | :02:05. | |
The law prevents us from iddntifying them to protect the children. | :02:06. | :02:13. | |
But I spoke to their father before he was sent to prison. | :02:14. | :02:20. | |
We did let our children down. We did not stop loving than that wd did let | :02:21. | :02:30. | |
them down. In a way of development and growing up. | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
How did you let your childrdn get into this state? What let up to it? | :02:36. | :02:41. | |
They were left in a bad way. It is a range of failings on my | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
behalf, my wife's behalf and social services let us down in a bhg way. A | :02:48. | :02:52. | |
lot of agencies let us down. Social care and health teams tried, | :02:53. | :02:53. | |
unsuccessfully it turns out, to help The parents often refused that help, | :02:54. | :02:56. | |
but could more have been done As a result, | :02:57. | :03:00. | |
the chair of the Gloucestershire Children Safeguarding Board said | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
in a statement today that "The neglect these children suffered | :03:05. | :03:06. | |
was unacceptable. The Board had already been focusing | :03:07. | :03:07. | |
on neglect as an issue and so we decided that a | :03:08. | :03:10. | |
Serious Case Review would hdlp us understand what happened | :03:11. | :03:13. | |
in this particular case and what we The investigation started | :03:14. | :03:15. | |
after the couple's two year old daughter was admitted to hospital | :03:16. | :03:20. | |
with severe nappy rash ` thd pain The detective in charge of | :03:21. | :03:23. | |
the case told me it's been the most Neglect is around failing to meet | :03:24. | :03:39. | |
the basic needs of the child so that they can develop and meet those | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
milestones that normal children do. And these children will not reaching | :03:43. | :03:48. | |
those normal milestones that most children do meet, such as bding able | :03:49. | :03:54. | |
to walk or use the toilets. The judge said that the pardnts were | :03:55. | :04:00. | |
inadequate, stupid, stubborn and inadequate but that they were not | :04:01. | :04:03. | |
wicked. They did not deliberately inflict pain on their children and | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
they tried that limited best to bring up their children correctly. | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
David Niven is the former chairman of the British | :04:13. | :04:14. | |
Association of Social Workers and a child protection expert. | :04:15. | :04:16. | |
He provides training on child protection. | :04:17. | :04:24. | |
Does it surprise you to see cases like this in 2014? | :04:25. | :04:34. | |
No, it does sadden me. Thesd are cases that I find the most | :04:35. | :04:39. | |
difficult, when there is neglect by omission. Parents do not know how to | :04:40. | :04:46. | |
be parents here. Where love is not enough, the parents cared for the | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
children, but they did not know how to. They possibly had the court is | :04:52. | :04:57. | |
in understanding or they were incompetent. | :04:58. | :05:01. | |
Social services did try to step in, albeit unsuccessfully. Do you think | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
that their hands are tied. Hs there too much red tape? | :05:07. | :05:09. | |
What surprises me is that I would imagine that social services would | :05:10. | :05:14. | |
help this couple, telling pdople what to do, making sure that the | :05:15. | :05:20. | |
children had the right tests and the right clothes, didn't turn tp hungry | :05:21. | :05:26. | |
at school. But what surprisdd me here was, often if it fails, then | :05:27. | :05:32. | |
you go to the family Court `nd apply for care proceedings. This hs quite | :05:33. | :05:37. | |
usual. But this was the crilinal court, so it must be somethhng more. | :05:38. | :05:44. | |
There is a serious case revhew going on. These children were seen in | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
public, should the public h`ve raised the alarm? | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
I would encourage the public, if they do see children regularly in a | :05:54. | :05:56. | |
state of need and neglect to report the matter, talk about it. Just like | :05:57. | :06:03. | |
anything else, if you saw a child being beaten, you would. If you saw | :06:04. | :06:08. | |
a child being kidnapped, yot would report it. You should report | :06:09. | :06:13. | |
neglect. There are high numbers of child of | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
that the moment with the crhsis in the economy. Will we see thdse | :06:18. | :06:22. | |
numbers rise? I expect so. The social services are becoming | :06:23. | :06:26. | |
more efficient, but they ard under great pressure with the amotnt of | :06:27. | :06:27. | |
people coming forward. Police are this evening appdaling | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
for couple who feel they max have been scammed by a woman clahming to | :06:31. | :06:33. | |
be a surrogate mum to get in touch. A judge today sent Louise Pollard, | :06:34. | :06:36. | |
from Bristol, to jail for pretending to bd | :06:37. | :06:38. | |
pregnant and cheating two ddsperate But police say they think there | :06:39. | :06:41. | |
may be other victims out thdre. 28`year`old Louise Pollard had said | :06:42. | :06:48. | |
she wanted to become the most prolific surrogate mums in the | :06:49. | :06:51. | |
country. Today, she certainly became Today, she certainly became one | :06:52. | :06:56. | |
of the most notorious. The court heard that she had said | :06:57. | :07:10. | |
that she had previously been a sub gut, but this was different. At the | :07:11. | :07:19. | |
begin `` a summer but mother, but this was different. The court heard | :07:20. | :07:30. | |
that she had artificially inseminated herself and had on two | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
occasions pretended to be pregnant, even faking taking a pregnancy test. | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
On each occasion, she said that she had miscarried, after taking money | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
from the couple. On another occasion, another couple pahd her to | :07:45. | :07:50. | |
carry a child for them, and she pretended to fall pregnant, forging | :07:51. | :07:58. | |
a doctor's letter. But she said that she had miscarried, after t`king | :07:59. | :08:03. | |
?5,000 of their money. The court heard how the whole | :08:04. | :08:07. | |
episode had been very traum`tic for the couples involved. One woman said | :08:08. | :08:10. | |
that she had been left feelhng that she would never be able to trust | :08:11. | :08:14. | |
anyone again. Another victil said that he and his wife's world had | :08:15. | :08:18. | |
come crashing down when thex learnt of what had happened. | :08:19. | :08:26. | |
Louise, who had previously hit the headlines when she had agredd to be | :08:27. | :08:32. | |
a surrogate mother for the bin lard and family, `` Osama Bin Laden's | :08:33. | :08:42. | |
family, was in court. We are concerned. We think that | :08:43. | :08:46. | |
there may be more people affected. If anyone has been affected by her | :08:47. | :08:49. | |
activities, then please contact the police. | :08:50. | :08:55. | |
Sentencing her to three years and four months in jail, the judge said | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
that this was not just a case of financial loss, but a case of too | :09:01. | :09:06. | |
desperate couples being takdn in by you and your lies. They havd lost | :09:07. | :09:10. | |
money, but they have lost a lot more than that and have ended up | :09:11. | :09:12. | |
heartbroken. Earlier I spoke to Natalie Gamble, | :09:13. | :09:14. | |
who is a fertility lawyer. She represented one of the couples | :09:15. | :09:17. | |
defrauded by Pollard and I `sked Yes, and this has been such an | :09:18. | :09:32. | |
incredibly difficult story. This happens very round it. We h`ve dealt | :09:33. | :09:38. | |
with hundreds of cases, and the majority of very caring and genuine | :09:39. | :09:46. | |
women. `` this happens very rarely. If a couple are considering having | :09:47. | :09:53. | |
helped to start a family, are there protection to stop them frol being | :09:54. | :10:00. | |
defrauded in this way? The problem is that there are some | :10:01. | :10:07. | |
agencies that are accredited, but many of the matches takes place on | :10:08. | :10:12. | |
the Internet. There is not the same monitoring as there are with other | :10:13. | :10:19. | |
processes. It is quite an informal environment. We are campaigning to | :10:20. | :10:25. | |
have a better framework put in place that would help create some | :10:26. | :10:29. | |
safeguards for parents and for the women who carried the babies. | :10:30. | :10:34. | |
If people are worried about the arrangement is that they have in | :10:35. | :10:40. | |
place, when should the alarl bells ring? | :10:41. | :10:43. | |
It is important to do your homework and make sure that you have talked | :10:44. | :10:48. | |
about all the major issues. Things about your views about what might | :10:49. | :10:53. | |
happen with the pregnancy. How much contact and support you would expect | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
to have with each other. Getting to know each other and the widdr family | :10:58. | :11:02. | |
around is important. There hs no substitute for doing that vdry | :11:03. | :11:05. | |
thoroughly. Some people do that with an agency, but for others it is very | :11:06. | :11:10. | |
important that they do as mtch time as possible getting to know the | :11:11. | :11:15. | |
woman and the other when around How are the couples now? It is back | :11:16. | :11:23. | |
to the drawing board for parents who have already had a difficult time | :11:24. | :11:27. | |
with not being able to have a family more conventionally. They h`ve had | :11:28. | :11:32. | |
this disappointment on top of it. They have to try and find somebody | :11:33. | :11:35. | |
to help them, so it is very difficult. | :11:36. | :11:39. | |
A very warm welcome to BBC Points West at the start of the wedk. We've | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
still got plenty more to cole, including Jemma enjoying an evening | :11:44. | :11:46. | |
That is right. We are going to have a lovely week of weather here in the | :11:47. | :12:02. | |
West and every night this wdek I will be doing the weather forecast | :12:03. | :12:04. | |
from locations that you havd suggested. Join me later to see | :12:05. | :12:07. | |
where I am at night. `` tonhght An inquest has heard how a | :12:08. | :12:15. | |
Somerset Army officer was found with a bullet wound in his head, | :12:16. | :12:18. | |
in a shower block in a Brithsh Captain James Townley had only | :12:19. | :12:21. | |
arrived A five day hearing in Wells will try | :12:22. | :12:23. | |
to establish exactly how he died. James Townley was just a dax away | :12:24. | :12:42. | |
from his 30th birthday. In 2012 he was working in Helmand provhnce at a | :12:43. | :12:51. | |
base which he had arrived at a week earlier. This inquest heard that at | :12:52. | :12:56. | |
6:30am on the 21st of Septelber James Townley left his tent and | :12:57. | :13:01. | |
walked to the toilet block on the base. He was carrying his phstol. | :13:02. | :13:06. | |
Less than two minutes later, his colleagues found him in one of the | :13:07. | :13:10. | |
locked cubicles. He had a gtnshot wound to his head and he didd | :13:11. | :13:14. | |
shortly afterwards. Both of the captain's parents were | :13:15. | :13:22. | |
at the inquest. They heard from some of the soldiers who found hhm in the | :13:23. | :13:27. | |
tower block `` shower block and from those who knew him in the d`ys | :13:28. | :13:33. | |
before his death. They said that he was behaving perfectly norm`lly | :13:34. | :13:36. | |
before his death, but one s`id that he put a lot of pressure on himself | :13:37. | :13:41. | |
to do his job properly. Another captain, one of the first to arrive | :13:42. | :13:46. | |
on the scene, said that at the time he believe the wound to be | :13:47. | :13:51. | |
self`inflicted. The pistol was on the floor in the cubicle whdre James | :13:52. | :13:57. | |
Townley died. Another captahn was asked if it was normal for someone | :13:58. | :14:00. | |
to take a loaded gun to the shower block. He said absolutely, ht is | :14:01. | :14:05. | |
normal practice to be armed at all times. | :14:06. | :14:10. | |
This inquest will be hearing from 22 witnesses. The coroner said that he | :14:11. | :14:15. | |
will be examining the circulstances around the death in great ddtail. | :14:16. | :14:19. | |
But he said it was not his responsibility to apportion blame. | :14:20. | :14:23. | |
This, he said, was a fact`fhnding exercise. | :14:24. | :14:30. | |
A Somerset MP is under investigation by the Parlialentary | :14:31. | :14:33. | |
The Standards Commissioner will consider whether the Wells LP Tessa | :14:34. | :14:36. | |
Munt should have declared a poll carried out in her constitudncy on | :14:37. | :14:38. | |
The survey was paid for by Lord Oakeshott and asked people | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
if they'd change their vote if the Lib Dems changed their leader. | :14:43. | :14:45. | |
Tessa Munt said she welcomed the inquiry | :14:46. | :14:47. | |
People in the West who have just been diagnosed with cancer `re | :14:48. | :14:55. | |
having to wait months beford they receive the benefits they ddserve. | :14:56. | :14:59. | |
A backlog has built up due to more rigorous medical tests brought in | :15:00. | :15:02. | |
Throat cancer has left Stephen Luther unable to spdak. | :15:03. | :15:14. | |
So he can't express how he feels about having to wait 14 months | :15:15. | :15:17. | |
I'm sure Stephen won't mind me saying, | :15:18. | :15:22. | |
He's feeling like he's been forgotten about, really. | :15:23. | :15:40. | |
At Bristol Citizens Advice, they say they're seeing manx more | :15:41. | :15:42. | |
Today, the charity Macmillan Cancer Support cl`imed one | :15:43. | :15:45. | |
in three cancer patients face waits of over six months for their money. | :15:46. | :15:57. | |
People who are not applying under special walls, things have got | :15:58. | :16:03. | |
worse. People awaiting a very long time. `` special rules. I rdcently | :16:04. | :16:10. | |
had a client who applied last August and has only just got his money | :16:11. | :16:14. | |
Another applied in October `nd is still waiting to hear. It is | :16:15. | :16:17. | |
terrible. The benefits backlog is | :16:18. | :16:18. | |
for a new version of the It's now called Personal | :16:19. | :16:21. | |
Independence Payment or PIP. Now claimants face more | :16:22. | :16:25. | |
rigorous medical tests. They're run by private provhders | :16:26. | :16:30. | |
like ATOS and have not been well But the Government insists they | :16:31. | :16:33. | |
are necessary to control a ballooning welfare bill and accepts | :16:34. | :16:39. | |
more tests have jammed the system. You are put on DLA for life. Only 7% | :16:40. | :16:58. | |
of people who were put on its got a face to face examination. At the | :16:59. | :17:04. | |
moment it is 97%, so you can see why there are delays. | :17:05. | :17:06. | |
Those who are terminally ill are now being seen more quickly. | :17:07. | :17:09. | |
But for people like Stephen who don't fall into that category, | :17:10. | :17:11. | |
they are left to count the costs of being stuck in the systel. | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
As they crossed the finish line yesterday, ht was | :17:17. | :17:18. | |
Charity cyclists had their bikes stolen, but people stepped hn. | :17:19. | :17:37. | |
Their bikes were stolen, but campers offered their own bikes to get them | :17:38. | :17:39. | |
on the road again. The Help for Heroes team had spent | :17:40. | :17:43. | |
many months training But it was almost over before it | :17:44. | :17:45. | |
began as their bikes were stolen It was devastating. Having trained | :17:46. | :18:08. | |
so hard for so long, working to do the event and then taken aw`y from | :18:09. | :18:10. | |
you. 12 bikes were taken | :18:11. | :18:11. | |
while the team were asleep. They were camping here with their | :18:12. | :18:22. | |
bikes before the race. But when they got up in the morning, the gate was | :18:23. | :18:27. | |
open and there bikes were gone. Other people stepped in, like this | :18:28. | :18:30. | |
business that meant them to bikes, including this one. | :18:31. | :18:36. | |
Initially, I looked through my stock and my rental bikes and we decided | :18:37. | :18:41. | |
to rent them as many as thex wanted. The only needed two from ourselves. | :18:42. | :18:45. | |
They did take bikes from other competitors who were not ushng them | :18:46. | :18:49. | |
and spectators who had the bikes with them. So they were sorted and | :18:50. | :18:50. | |
were happy. Some of those taking part | :18:51. | :18:51. | |
in the race are still recovdring This type of event is key to | :18:52. | :18:54. | |
their rehabilitation. It is a huge event in motion a and | :18:55. | :19:08. | |
physically and you build yotrself up to it. So when you are here waiting | :19:09. | :19:13. | |
to challenge yourself, posshbly for the first time since being hnjured, | :19:14. | :19:17. | |
when you wake up and realisd that your bike has been stolen, ht is an | :19:18. | :19:19. | |
enormous blow. People living near the race area | :19:20. | :19:20. | |
say theft is on the up, espdcially performance bicycles, just the | :19:21. | :19:23. | |
type you might use in a tri`thlon. They were one of the biggest | :19:24. | :19:26. | |
bands of the 1980s, selling But Duran Duran's fame and fortune | :19:27. | :19:43. | |
took its toll on a founder lember Their success led to | :19:44. | :19:48. | |
the bass guitarist's well`documented Now John Taylor, who lives | :19:49. | :19:51. | |
in Wiltshire, has teamed up with a West Country charity to help people | :19:52. | :19:56. | |
with addictions and their f`milies. Andy Warhol was a fan, | :19:57. | :19:59. | |
as was Princess Diana. And John Taylor was the man | :20:00. | :20:12. | |
behind Duran Duran. He started it in Birmingham | :20:13. | :20:17. | |
in the late ?70s. Music got me by my throat | :20:18. | :20:19. | |
in my teenage years. I went to college with the | :20:20. | :20:26. | |
intention of starting a band, which is where Duran Duran got st`rted. | :20:27. | :20:37. | |
But by the mid`?80s, this b`nd was one of the most successful | :20:38. | :20:39. | |
in the world, with a string of hits across Europe, and @merica. | :20:40. | :20:45. | |
And a string of girls in thdir wake. What were the most extreme | :20:46. | :20:48. | |
things that fans did? One person said that | :20:49. | :20:50. | |
when I had played, I had had a cold, and they had grabbed the tissues | :20:51. | :20:55. | |
so that they could catch my cold. The biggest band | :20:56. | :21:05. | |
in the world lived the dreal. Life was just one long partx of sex, | :21:06. | :21:07. | |
drugs and alcohol. Every town would be an excuse | :21:08. | :21:15. | |
for a blow out, leaving and arriving at a ndw town. | :21:16. | :21:20. | |
I could never stop after ond drink. Some of | :21:21. | :21:26. | |
my friends could drink casu`lly one thing always led to another for me. | :21:27. | :21:30. | |
So a seemingly innocent glass of wine at lunch time, | :21:31. | :21:35. | |
and I would be at a drug dealer's house by midnight. | :21:36. | :21:39. | |
It was horrible. The turnaround came ten years later | :21:40. | :21:44. | |
in the mid ?90s, when John checked in for rehab. | :21:45. | :21:47. | |
Every since, he's been helping others get clean. | :21:48. | :21:50. | |
I have a daughter and a stepdaughter who both had problems. | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
What are you going to do? Lock your kids up? | :21:55. | :21:56. | |
But at least they know that there are solutions. | :21:57. | :21:58. | |
This is what this organisathon, DHI, is all about. | :21:59. | :22:05. | |
Duran Duran are still together. They are in the middle | :22:06. | :22:08. | |
of making their new album. But John admits addiction is still | :22:09. | :22:10. | |
a daily battle. Sometimes I get out of work and I | :22:11. | :22:16. | |
could really use a drink. What are you going to do? | :22:17. | :22:18. | |
I go to the record store. Sometimes you have got to | :22:19. | :22:24. | |
give yourself a little treat. But it's finding treats that | :22:25. | :22:25. | |
aren't going to kill you. His songs are still popular, | :22:26. | :22:46. | |
everybody in the gallery ard singing them. | :22:47. | :22:53. | |
He's believed to be the first ever robot guard brought | :22:54. | :22:56. | |
He patrols the corridors of G4S in Tewkesbury in Gloucestershire, | :22:57. | :23:00. | |
as part of a multi`million pound pl`n to see | :23:01. | :23:02. | |
But the company says Bob will ndver take | :23:03. | :23:06. | |
He's not about replacing our security officers. Our security | :23:07. | :23:19. | |
officers are able to make vdry quick decisions about changes in the | :23:20. | :23:24. | |
environment. Bob is a comp dntry activity that can help us overnight, | :23:25. | :23:32. | |
but also pick up on the low`level activities that guards do not need | :23:33. | :23:34. | |
to work on. Prince George has made his first | :23:35. | :23:37. | |
public appearance in our region He was at the Cirencester P`rk Polo | :23:38. | :23:40. | |
Club at the weekend, just two months He was walking with his mother, | :23:41. | :23:44. | |
the Duchess of Cambridge. His father Prince William and Prince | :23:45. | :23:48. | |
Harry were also there, on opposing Well, it was a lovely weekend | :23:49. | :23:51. | |
of weather here in the West and we hope it's going to bd settled | :23:52. | :23:58. | |
for the rest of the week! It's going to be so nice, | :23:59. | :24:02. | |
we thought we'd ask you to suggest some of the best places in the West | :24:03. | :24:05. | |
for Jemma to do her forecast from. You've been sending | :24:06. | :24:09. | |
in your ideas to our Facebook page That is right. We did give ht away | :24:10. | :24:26. | |
earlier, but I am out every night this week. You have been sending in | :24:27. | :24:33. | |
your suggestions to our Facdbook page about places that I cotld | :24:34. | :24:39. | |
present the weather from. Tonight, I am lucky to be at Clevedon Pier and | :24:40. | :24:47. | |
that has been suggested by ` North Somerset residents. He has childhood | :24:48. | :24:55. | |
memories of this PR and `` of this area. It is a wonderful strtcture | :24:56. | :25:03. | |
and we are in for a wonderftl week of weather. So if we look at the | :25:04. | :25:08. | |
forecast, we can see that wd have quite a lot of Cloud today. It is | :25:09. | :25:13. | |
beginning to break up a little bit tonight. There are some holds in | :25:14. | :25:19. | |
that cloud, but it was cloudy earlier than we hoped for. The | :25:20. | :25:24. | |
headline is that the cloud will break and there will be good sunny | :25:25. | :25:29. | |
spells. Pleasantly warm as well Just the odd shower. High | :25:30. | :25:35. | |
temperatures for the next fdw days, the only real concern some showers | :25:36. | :25:41. | |
tomorrow evening. But they won't amount to a great deal. Tod`y, the | :25:42. | :25:46. | |
temperatures struggled becatse of the cloud, they peaked at 18 | :25:47. | :25:52. | |
Celsius, which was lower th`n some places in the country. The | :25:53. | :25:57. | |
countryside temperatures were a little colder. Overnight, the cloud | :25:58. | :26:03. | |
should give this good insul`tion. So it will give us some good overnight | :26:04. | :26:09. | |
temperatures, 11 to 13 Celshus. It does mean that it is a mild start | :26:10. | :26:13. | |
into tomorrow morning, but ht also means that it will be a gre`t start | :26:14. | :26:19. | |
for a time. I would say there with that, because as we moved through | :26:20. | :26:23. | |
the morning and into the afternoon, the sun will put some holes in the | :26:24. | :26:28. | |
cloud, wearing blue skies and sunshine through. The temperatures | :26:29. | :26:35. | |
will respond well. Anything from 21 to 22 degrees Celsius. Tomorrow | :26:36. | :26:40. | |
evening and night time, we will see some more holes in the cloud. Maybe | :26:41. | :26:46. | |
the temperatures just a little cooler tomorrow night. And the | :26:47. | :26:51. | |
likelihood of just a few showers from the North, maybe clipphng the | :26:52. | :26:54. | |
northern parts of Gloucestershire and moving southwards. Dying away by | :26:55. | :27:01. | |
Wednesday morning. It may bd damp underfoot. Wednesday, it will be a | :27:02. | :27:08. | |
dry and settled affair some cloud but decent spells of sunshine. It is | :27:09. | :27:14. | |
a very settled story becausd of that pressure. Enjoy the sunshind. | :27:15. | :27:18. | |
Possibly the odd thundery shower, but it is a good week ahead. | :27:19. | :27:24. | |
We will say goodbye here. You are back for the Ten O'Clock News? | :27:25. | :27:32. | |
Yes, and we will be looking at the Winter Flood report. Farmers will | :27:33. | :27:37. | |
find out whether their land will be protected and Somerset residents | :27:38. | :27:41. | |
will be wondering if their views will be listened to. | :27:42. | :27:46. | |
We will be talking to an action group and speaking to government | :27:47. | :27:47. | |
representatives. We are about to find out whether | :27:48. | :28:26. | |
they can cook. You're going to love it. | :28:27. | :28:32. | |
Smashed it. Yum-yum-yum. | :28:33. | :28:36. |
