That's all from us. Now it's time for the news where | :00:00. | :00:10. | |
As preparations continue for the Nato summit in a few weeks' | :00:11. | :00:15. | |
time, it's been revealed a no`fly zone will be in place for | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
The request came from the police, and will prevent light aircraft | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
flying over the area for the three days of the summit. | :00:23. | :00:26. | |
Come September, world leaders will descend on Newport | :00:27. | :00:31. | |
Alongside the likes of President Obama, we're expecting | :00:32. | :00:38. | |
So, the disruption to the West Country was expected to be limited | :00:39. | :00:45. | |
to full hotels, and busy motorways as those involved cross the Severn. | :00:46. | :00:52. | |
Now though we've learned some pilots may also be affected. | :00:53. | :00:57. | |
Two no`fly zones will be in place on different days | :00:58. | :01:00. | |
across the summit ` over some of the West and South Wales. | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
This won't affect emergency services, | :01:05. | :01:07. | |
or commercial flights in and out of Bristol or Cardiff airports. | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
It's all part of a massive security operation that has seen this fence | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
recently erected around the hotel where the summit will be held. | :01:17. | :01:23. | |
We are anticipating some protest activity. | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
We need to manage that safely respecting people's lawful right to | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
protest and also dealing quickly with people who want to misbehave | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
and possibly damage things or act in a violent way. | :01:34. | :01:39. | |
An operation that could cost ?50m and has now extended into | :01:40. | :01:42. | |
The man who stabbed his ex`girlfriend to death | :01:43. | :01:51. | |
as she worked in a Gloucester hair salon has launched | :01:52. | :01:54. | |

No`one was in the hall in Moredon at the time of the incident | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
The front of the building has to be rebuilt following structural damage. | :02:29. | :02:35. | |
It's been another successful day at Bristol balloon fiesta with mass | :02:36. | :02:37. | |
ascents this morning and this evening. | :02:38. | :02:40. | |
The event has become one of the most important in the | :02:41. | :02:43. | |
West Country calendar with worldwide coverage worth millions to | :02:44. | :02:45. | |
Thousands have descended on Ashton Court for day two of the Bristol | :02:46. | :02:55. | |
We have had two events, one this morning and one | :02:56. | :03:00. | |
Bristol is Europe's biggest balloon fiesta which is quite a feat | :03:01. | :03:07. | |
when you think the first fiesta only had a dozen balloons go up. | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
Scott Ellis has been looking back at the history of the | :03:13. | :03:18. | |
Ballooning as a hobby was new in Europe and a Glaswegian | :03:19. | :03:32. | |
aeronautical engineer from Bristol was the pioneer. | :03:33. | :03:38. | |
It would worry me in case the fabric caught fire in this roaring flame. | :03:39. | :03:45. | |
Sometimes it does get a bit of burn damage. | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
Don's hobby grew into Cameron?s Balloons and the | :03:50. | :03:58. | |
Don gave a talk to the Junior Chamber of Commerce | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
about a transatlantic balloon race he had competed in 1978. | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
After that, they had drinks in Clifton and decided Bristol needed | :04:07. | :04:11. | |
a balloon event the very next year like those cropping up in the US. | :04:12. | :04:18. | |
It was completely open to the public. | :04:19. | :04:26. | |
The fiesta grew doubling as Bristol's summer show and | :04:27. | :04:31. | |
The not`for`profit event could remain free to enter. | :04:32. | :04:39. | |
These days the show pulls daily crowds of 100,000. | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
And Cameron's is the world's biggest balloon manufacturer. | :04:44. | :04:50. | |
Don's daughter is also part of the business. | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
I can remember if I had to find my dad I would come to the balloon | :04:55. | :04:58. | |
So, yes, it is something that is growing much part of our lives. | :04:59. | :05:06. | |
So, yes, it is something that is very much part of our lives. | :05:07. | :05:09. | |
Making it happen is obviously in the genes ` thousands have helped | :05:10. | :05:16. | |
build Bristol's ballooning reputation but it all started with | :05:17. | :05:18. | |
a softly spoken Scot whose hobby became a hallmark for a city. | :05:19. | :05:32. | |
Cricket and the rain affected Gloucestershire's game against Essex | :05:33. | :05:34. | |
Gloucestershire batted first making 55 for 1 off 11 overs. | :05:35. | :05:41. | |
But that's as far as it got before the heavy rain meant | :05:42. | :05:44. | |
It's been confirmed a 120 giant Shaun the Sheep statues | :05:45. | :05:50. | |
will be placed across Bristol and London next Summer. | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
It follows the Gromits that were dotted over the city last year. | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
When they were auctioned off, more than two million pounds was raised | :05:58. | :06:00. | |
Ultimately it is to raise funds for the children's hospital | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
in Bristol which is such a special place and we love being | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
Everybody will pull out all the stops to make it work. | :06:08. | :06:14. | |
There's of course more news on the BBC website. | :06:15. | :06:18. | |

Hello, we saw a number of balloons through the course of Friday and | :06:29. | :06:32. | |
A breezy day, many districts are dry, some showers and by Sunday | :06:33. | :06:39. | |
The Met Office has a yellow warning for Sunday. | :06:40. | :06:47. | |
Through tonight, temperatures dropping to 12 to 14 Celsius. | :06:48. | :07:02. | |
Showers feeding in from the West before too long. | :07:03. | :07:06. | |
Others will see fewer or no showers whatsoever. | :07:07. | :07:08. | |
It will be something of mixed fortunes but decent enough | :07:09. | :07:14. | |
in the sunny spells and a moderate day with more showers around. | :07:15. | :07:17. | |
Good evening. We saw some torrential thunderstorms earlier today. | :07:18. | :07:43. | |
Tomorrow looks like a better day for most places. It will go downhill | :07:44. | :07:46. | |
into Sunday. This is heading our way. This is a couple of day's worth | :07:47. | :07:51. | |

the north of England. Reports of flooding from Yorkshire down to | :08:12. | :08:15. | |
Cambridgeshire. Quite impactful weather. It is wet over the next few | :08:16. | :08:20. | |
hours over the eastern side of the UK. Most of the rain should clear | :08:21. | :08:24. | |
from the eastern side but it may linger into the morning for the | :08:25. | :08:28. | |
north-east of Scotland. Most places by dawn should be dry. It will be | :08:29. | :08:35. | |
quite chilly. Dipping into single | :08:36. | :08:36. |
