the murder of a Wiltshire woman have appealed for help to trace ` car

The body of Becky Godden, also known as Becky Godden`Ddwards,

:00:24.:00:29.

For Karen Edwards, the pain of losing her daughter

:00:30.:00:39.

It's three years since her body was found but still no`one has

:00:40.:00:45.

The memories never go away. It is so unjust that somebody who murdered

:00:46.:01:06.

her has got away with it. Becky had fallen into drugs and

:01:07.:01:10.

by 2003 It's around then police

:01:11.:01:12.

believe she was murdered. Her body was found in a field

the key to confirming the identity A silver Volvo S80 saloon that's

:01:29.:01:35.

not been seen since 2004. I believe this car was used in the

:01:36.:01:57.

murder. I am appealing to pdople to come forward if they have any

:01:58.:01:59.

information about it. Earlier this year another bone

Volvo can be recovered and that A woman whose mother has delentia

the County Council's decision to She has got legal aid to take

the case to court on behalf Hopefully, they will look at what

:02:54.:02:58.

they are doing to these old people because they can't just be loved,

:02:59.:03:03.

they can't just suddenly up and out. Other people haven't got me,

:03:04.:03:09.

they've got nobody, some people they got nobody to fight for their

:03:10.:03:13.

cause and I am prepared to fight. Devon County Council aims to save

:03:14.:03:16.

?10.7 million by closing its homes. The Conservative administration says

:03:17.:03:20.

its homes are too expensive to run although there are plans to keep to

:03:24.:03:26.

the right place for her mother. On a CQC,

programme is on hold but ond union I am very concerned

:03:48.:03:51.

for the families, the residents of the homes, who now

:03:52.:03:57.

no longer know what is happdning As a trades union,

:03:58.:04:00.

we are concerned about our staff. The sooner it is solved,

:04:01.:04:05.

the better for all concerned. Three care homes

:04:06.:04:08.

have already closed and 100 residents

:04:09.:04:09.

have already moved. Devon County Council says they won't

:04:10.:04:12.

comment on the legal challenge but say they have launched an appeal and

:04:13.:04:18.

expect to hear the outcome shortly. Councillors in North Somersdt have

Alina Jenkins, who has the weather September has been on the dry side

so far but there is rain forecast. You can see it is quite patchy in

nature. Not everyone will sde the rain that we will see the breeze

:06:49.:06:54.

picking up. That will be a lild night. That is a dull start to

`` dull start to weapon state. `` Wednesday. The temperatures are

perfectly respectable for the time of year. That breeze will use to

down over the weekend and now for the National forecast.

:07:33.:07:44.

You've been sending us pictures of the fine weather. This one was taken

:07:45.:07:50.

by Keith Brown in the Peak District yesterday, enjoying the sunshine

:07:51.:07:53.

here. There's been a little more cloud around today across parts of

:07:54.:07:56.

the Peak District and we finished the day with cloudy skies across

:07:57.:07:59.

much of the UK. That's because there are a couple of weather fronts,

:08:00.:08:04.

picked out on the chart. You can see one moving south into the Midlands.

:08:05.:08:07.

Another one sitting through Scotland and Northern Ireland. Through the

:08:08.:08:12.

night, that rain is going to continue to move further south,

:08:13.:08:15.

merging together and behind it breaks in the cloud giving clearer

:08:16.:08:19.

spells, but still a few showers around the coast. Our temperatures

:08:20.:08:25.

by dawn are ten to 13. Still the legacy of cloudier skies across the

south and South Wales first thing in the morning. With a few showers

:08:29.:08:33.

around. Things will improve here as that clears eastwards. Brighter

:08:34.:08:37.

skies further north, but a noticeable north-westerly breeze

:08:38.:08:40.

across the country throughout the day. 4.00pm and some sunshine for

:08:41.:08:46.

the south-west of England with temperatures at 17. Still the
