Welcome to Wales Today. Our top story: Her phone was hacked from | 0:00:00 | 0:00:10 | |
0:00:10 | 0:00:11 | ||
the age of 16. A payout of �600,000 for Charlotte Church. Nothing was | 0:00:11 | 0:00:15 | |
deemed off-limits for those who pursued my family, just to make | 0:00:15 | 0:00:18 | |
money. Our other headlines: More than half the allegations made | 0:00:18 | 0:00:23 | |
against teachers turn out to be false, malicious or unfounded. | 0:00:23 | 0:00:28 | |
effect it had on my wife and myself was completely devastating, | 0:00:28 | 0:00:34 | |
crippled had breakdowns and were both on medication. For something | 0:00:34 | 0:00:37 | |
that in the end was found to be without foundation. We're waiting | 0:00:37 | 0:00:40 | |
for test results that may prove a new virus affecting sheep and | 0:00:40 | 0:00:44 | |
cattle has spread to Wales. Swansea will become the first city in the | 0:00:44 | 0:00:50 | |
UK to divert traffic to reduce pollution. In tonight's sport: The | 0:00:50 | 0:00:54 | |
ecstasy and the agony, Welsh fans live through 40 hours of drama as | 0:00:54 | 0:01:04 | |
0:01:04 | 0:01:16 | ||
our teams experience the highs and Charlotte Church and her parents | 0:01:16 | 0:01:19 | |
have agreed damages and costs of �600,000 with News Group Newspapers, | 0:01:19 | 0:01:27 | |
publishers of the defunct News of the World. The High Court heard how | 0:01:27 | 0:01:32 | |
her phone was packed when she was just 16 years old. She said she was | 0:01:32 | 0:01:35 | |
sickened and disgusted by what the newspaper had done to get stories | 0:01:35 | 0:01:45 | |
0:01:45 | 0:01:50 | ||
about her and her family. How are you coping with all this | 0:01:50 | 0:01:55 | |
new-found fame? Wales Today back in 1998 and 12 year-old girl at the | 0:01:55 | 0:02:04 | |
start of a meteoric rise to fame. It is really quite strange because | 0:02:04 | 0:02:08 | |
I am on the side of buses in Cardiff at the moment! 14 years on | 0:02:08 | 0:02:10 | |
and she's speaking outside the Royal Courts of Justice. Exposure | 0:02:10 | 0:02:14 | |
in the press had helped her achieve success but today she launched a | 0:02:14 | 0:02:20 | |
scathing attack on a section of that press that had gone too far. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:24 | |
have also discovered that despite the apology that the newspaper has | 0:02:24 | 0:02:28 | |
given in court, these people were prepared to go to any lengths to | 0:02:28 | 0:02:32 | |
prevent any exposing their behaviour. Not just in the | 0:02:32 | 0:02:36 | |
deliberate destruction of documents but also about trying to make this | 0:02:36 | 0:02:40 | |
investigation into the industrial stage of their illegal activity in | 0:02:40 | 0:02:45 | |
to an interrogation of my mother's medical condition. Forcing her to | 0:02:45 | 0:02:50 | |
deliver the enormous distress they caster back in 2005. It seems they | 0:02:50 | 0:02:54 | |
have learned nothing. In total, 33 articles have appeared in the News | 0:02:54 | 0:03:03 | |
of the World due to her families voicemails being hacked. They said | 0:03:03 | 0:03:08 | |
her privacy was violated on a number of occasions. She | 0:03:08 | 0:03:11 | |
undoubtedly profited from the huge media interest but the papers | 0:03:11 | 0:03:14 | |
appetite for stories about her was insatiable and in 2002 when she was | 0:03:14 | 0:03:21 | |
just 16, the News of the World began hacking her phone. These | 0:03:21 | 0:03:23 | |
students studying journalism in Cardiff agreed the singer's privacy | 0:03:23 | 0:03:26 | |
was violated. The row over phone hacking by journalists has led to | 0:03:26 | 0:03:29 | |
the closure of the News of the World newspaper and wider questions | 0:03:29 | 0:03:32 | |
about press regulation and media ownership. It led to the ongoing | 0:03:32 | 0:03:34 | |
Leveson Inquiry looking at the culture, practices and ethics of | 0:03:34 | 0:03:43 | |
the UK media. Everyone and everything associated with people | 0:03:43 | 0:03:47 | |
defined as celebrities become newsworthy. Charlotte Church in | 0:03:47 | 0:03:52 | |
Wales and in Cardiff is an extremely big figure. But of course | 0:03:52 | 0:03:56 | |
she is of interest earned a celebrity because of her | 0:03:56 | 0:04:04 | |
considerable talent, a very fine voice. That doesn't give everyone a | 0:04:04 | 0:04:11 | |
licence to preach her human rights by invading her privacy in this way. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:13 | |
Other Welsh victims include Rhondda MP Chris Bryant, Ryan Giggs and | 0:04:13 | 0:04:16 | |
Charlotte Church's former partner Gavin Henson. The couple once | 0:04:16 | 0:04:19 | |
dubbed the Posh and Becks of Wales. Back at today's hearing, the court | 0:04:19 | 0:04:22 | |
heard how Charlotte Church's mother was at her lowest ebb when her | 0:04:22 | 0:04:26 | |
phone was hacked. Her legal team called it a gross intrusion into | 0:04:26 | 0:04:29 | |
the life of an essentially private and ordinary individual at a time | 0:04:29 | 0:04:39 | |
0:04:39 | 0:04:43 | ||
when she was suicidal.. More than half the accusations made against | 0:04:43 | 0:04:46 | |
teachers and teaching assistants by pupils in Wales turned out to be | 0:04:46 | 0:04:48 | |
false, malicious or unfounded. Figures for the last five years | 0:04:48 | 0:04:51 | |
obtained by BBC Wales found 55% of allegations were later dropped. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:54 | |
Teaching unions say more action should be taken against those who | 0:04:54 | 0:04:59 | |
make a false claims. 18 months ago, this man, a deputy | 0:04:59 | 0:05:01 | |
head teacher with 30 years' experience, was accused by three 10 | 0:05:01 | 0:05:04 | |
year-old boys of punching and kicking them and of drinking in the | 0:05:04 | 0:05:11 | |
classroom. The police found there was no case to answer but how the | 0:05:11 | 0:05:14 | |
allegations were dealt with, he says, was harrowing. The experience | 0:05:14 | 0:05:22 | |
caused a nervous breakdown. couldn't be told what the | 0:05:22 | 0:05:26 | |
allegations where or who had made those allegations. I was not | 0:05:26 | 0:05:29 | |
suspended straight away, as expected to go in and teach those | 0:05:29 | 0:05:36 | |
children on that day. This went on for a period of four or five weeks | 0:05:36 | 0:05:39 | |
whilst the of Thirties made a decision on whether this should be | 0:05:39 | 0:05:42 | |
pursued. Figures obtained under the Freedom of Information Act show | 0:05:42 | 0:05:45 | |
that between 2006 and 2011 312 allegations were made against | 0:05:45 | 0:05:50 | |
teachers and teaching assistants at Welsh schools. But 174 of those | 0:05:50 | 0:05:56 | |
were later found to be either false, unfunded or malicious. 103 cases | 0:05:56 | 0:05:58 | |
were investigated by police and two teachers or assistance were | 0:05:58 | 0:06:08 | |
convicted of crimes. Here at Michaelston Community College in | 0:06:08 | 0:06:13 | |
Cardiff, these pupils are working hard for French GCSE. The school | 0:06:13 | 0:06:15 | |
policy of tolerance and respect is designed to maintain the | 0:06:15 | 0:06:24 | |
environment they need for learning. In the classroom, you have children | 0:06:24 | 0:06:28 | |
who have issues that often come from outside the classroom. The | 0:06:28 | 0:06:33 | |
teachers in that classroom has to have a strategy tds delete those | 0:06:33 | 0:06:38 | |
views. It is all about training and up Skilling the message for staff | 0:06:39 | 0:06:41 | |
and students. It is David Brown's job to represent accused teachers | 0:06:41 | 0:06:45 | |
and his union wants police to use their powers more to deal with | 0:06:45 | 0:06:53 | |
pupils who make false allegations. This cannot be allowed to continue, | 0:06:53 | 0:06:58 | |
it is simply unfair. The important thing is that people who are | 0:06:58 | 0:07:01 | |
subject to allegations are given every opportunity to respond and | 0:07:01 | 0:07:05 | |
understand exactly what those allegations are as quickly as they | 0:07:05 | 0:07:10 | |
can. In 1986, the launch of Childline give children a voice and | 0:07:10 | 0:07:14 | |
heralded the start of a new era in child-protection which has seen the | 0:07:14 | 0:07:19 | |
appointment of a Children's Commissioner. He says he is | 0:07:19 | 0:07:21 | |
concerned now about talk of criminalising children who falsely | 0:07:21 | 0:07:30 | |
accuse. It's all about creating a safe environment in the classroom | 0:07:30 | 0:07:35 | |
and in the school itself. Bold and respect between children and | 0:07:35 | 0:07:39 | |
teachers and a right space is helpful in doing that because it | 0:07:39 | 0:07:44 | |
fosters respect between children and teachers and that is much more | 0:07:44 | 0:07:47 | |
significant a way of developing good practices rather than putting | 0:07:47 | 0:07:51 | |
one against the other. The Welsh government says it is updating its | 0:07:51 | 0:07:54 | |
guidance but that nothing should be done that would undermine a child's | 0:07:54 | 0:07:57 | |
rights. The teacher I spoke to says he believes the system is out of | 0:07:57 | 0:08:06 | |
balance. Teaching was his life, but he cannot wait for retirement. | 0:08:06 | 0:08:09 | |
We have more on the story on our website. | 0:08:09 | 0:08:13 | |
A 35 year-old man has been charged after a van and train collided at a | 0:08:13 | 0:08:17 | |
level crossing in Powys two weeks ago. Daniel Bellis from Oswestry | 0:08:17 | 0:08:20 | |
was charged with endangering safety on the railway without intent and | 0:08:20 | 0:08:30 | |
0:08:30 | 0:08:34 | ||
dangerous driving. A small number of tests have been | 0:08:34 | 0:08:37 | |
carried out on farms here for a potentially deadly animal virus | 0:08:37 | 0:08:39 | |
already found in livestock in England. The Schmallenburg virus | 0:08:39 | 0:08:42 | |
has mostly been found in sheep and causes miscarriages and birth | 0:08:42 | 0:08:45 | |
defects. Tonight Wales' chief vet says it is likely we will see some | 0:08:45 | 0:08:48 | |
cases here soon. Welsh lamb is an industry worth �119 million in | 0:08:48 | 0:08:53 | |
exports alone. Our Environment Correspondent joins us from a farm | 0:08:53 | 0:09:03 | |
0:09:03 | 0:09:04 | ||
near Bala. I am on a farm in a ballot. These | 0:09:04 | 0:09:09 | |
sheep are about to start lambing sin. We know that this is an area | 0:09:09 | 0:09:12 | |
where there are no concerns yet about the Schmallenburg virus and | 0:09:12 | 0:09:20 | |
there is possibly two or three cases in South Wales. South Wales | 0:09:20 | 0:09:24 | |
is an medium-risk area at the moment. But there are about 83 | 0:09:24 | 0:09:28 | |
cases in England and know the virus arrived in Britain last August so | 0:09:28 | 0:09:33 | |
what is the response here in Wales? What could have happened is that | 0:09:33 | 0:09:38 | |
the disease arrived in Applin midges from mainland Europe towards | 0:09:38 | 0:09:43 | |
the end of last summer. If that is the case, looking at the | 0:09:43 | 0:09:48 | |
Meteorological evidence, we would expect some of those images to | 0:09:48 | 0:09:53 | |
arrived in Wales. We believe that South Wales at the moment is in a | 0:09:53 | 0:09:58 | |
medium risk area for this disease. So it is possible but over the next | 0:09:58 | 0:10:02 | |
few weeks, as we reached the peak of the lambing season, but we will | 0:10:02 | 0:10:11 | |
find cases of this disease in Wales. With me now it is President of the | 0:10:11 | 0:10:15 | |
Farmers' Union of Wales. How concerned should farmers be | 0:10:15 | 0:10:18 | |
tonight? Obviously farmers are very concerned, especially after we | 0:10:19 | 0:10:24 | |
heard what she has just said, that there may be a possibility that the | 0:10:24 | 0:10:28 | |
virus has come into Wales. What would you say to farmers, what | 0:10:28 | 0:10:36 | |
should they do and this is beginning to be the peak time for | 0:10:36 | 0:10:42 | |
lambing, what should they be looking out for? For the next six | 0:10:42 | 0:10:46 | |
week, this is the lambing time and when lambs are born with a | 0:10:46 | 0:10:49 | |
moralities, the best thing is for the farmer to get in touch with his | 0:10:49 | 0:10:56 | |
local vet so that tests can be done on that lamb. He how much do you | 0:10:56 | 0:10:59 | |
know and you think most farmers know about this virus because it is | 0:10:59 | 0:11:03 | |
new and was only find in Germany towards the middle of last summer? | 0:11:03 | 0:11:07 | |
Obviously that is a big worry because nobody had heard about the | 0:11:07 | 0:11:11 | |
disease until last August. Even the vets don't know enough about it and | 0:11:11 | 0:11:15 | |
there is no vaccine against it, that is the biggest worry. What can | 0:11:15 | 0:11:21 | |
we do if we have it on our animals, what we do about it? Does this | 0:11:21 | 0:11:27 | |
remind you of a virus a few years ago which also came from insects? | 0:11:27 | 0:11:32 | |
It is very similar but the difference is, one there was a | 0:11:32 | 0:11:36 | |
vaccine for that, farmers could do something about it but with this | 0:11:36 | 0:11:41 | |
new virus, there is nothing we can do but hope for the best that we | 0:11:41 | 0:11:48 | |
will not get it in our ship. So far as scientists tried to learn more | 0:11:48 | 0:11:51 | |
about this first, they say there is very little risk in terms of human | 0:11:51 | 0:11:55 | |
health. Still ahead: I have tonight's sport. | 0:11:55 | 0:11:58 | |
A triple crown and a boxing belt come home to Wales. Cardiff City's | 0:11:58 | 0:12:00 | |
boss says yesterday's disappointment will help them push | 0:12:00 | 0:12:10 | |
0:12:10 | 0:12:11 | ||
for promotion. The question of whether Wales | 0:12:11 | 0:12:14 | |
should have a different policy to the UK government when it comes to | 0:12:14 | 0:12:20 | |
Europe has been a hot topic today in Brussels. The First Minister | 0:12:20 | 0:12:23 | |
told European commissioners he is keen Wales plays a constructive | 0:12:23 | 0:12:26 | |
role on the European stage but the Conservatives have accused him of | 0:12:26 | 0:12:36 | |
0:12:36 | 0:12:38 | ||
empty talk. Carwyn Jones was here in Brussels | 0:12:38 | 0:12:41 | |
today with two messages. There are nine that he has said he doesn't | 0:12:41 | 0:12:46 | |
want to see Scotland going it alone and bricking up the United Kingdom. | 0:12:46 | 0:12:51 | |
Remember that before Christmas when the David Cameron excluded the UK | 0:12:51 | 0:12:57 | |
from by new European treaty, Carwyn Jones said he was threatening the | 0:12:57 | 0:13:02 | |
entrance of Wales in Europe. Today it was all about being seen to be | 0:13:02 | 0:13:09 | |
doing it his way in Europe. First Stop, a meeting for the | 0:13:09 | 0:13:13 | |
commissioner for regional policy where the message was that he wants | 0:13:13 | 0:13:17 | |
Wales to be an active and constructive partner at European | 0:13:17 | 0:13:22 | |
stage as part of the United Kingdom. I have had meetings with | 0:13:22 | 0:13:24 | |
commissioners here so they know our view when it comes to European | 0:13:24 | 0:13:28 | |
funding in the future for Wales and areas such as farming policy which | 0:13:28 | 0:13:35 | |
are very important. A then on to this reception, all about promoting | 0:13:35 | 0:13:40 | |
Welsh food, reminding people that Europe is Wales's largest trade | 0:13:40 | 0:13:43 | |
destination. Remember how reliant we are on structural funds from | 0:13:43 | 0:13:48 | |
Europe. No surprises that the message here from those who live | 0:13:48 | 0:13:51 | |
and work in Brussels is that the Welsh voice, now more than ever, | 0:13:51 | 0:14:01 | |
0:14:01 | 0:14:04 | ||
Wales is making itself understood a very helpful. After the party, time | 0:14:04 | 0:14:08 | |
for more handshakes, this time with the Commissioner for financial | 0:14:08 | 0:14:17 | |
programming. This was about making and maintaining links. The Welsh | 0:14:18 | 0:14:22 | |
Conservatives has said Carwyn Jones would have done better to stay at | 0:14:22 | 0:14:26 | |
home and make the record European firms we have been given in Wales | 0:14:26 | 0:14:33 | |
work more effectively rather than coming here to Brussels. The | 0:14:33 | 0:14:36 | |
purpose of the visits from Carwyn Jones point of view is entirely | 0:14:36 | 0:14:42 | |
clear. The messages, I don't believe David Cameron or Alex | 0:14:42 | 0:14:46 | |
Salmond have the best interests of Wales at heart. This is about | 0:14:46 | 0:14:50 | |
showing them and Europe and us of course that he dares. That is a | 0:14:50 | 0:14:56 | |
clear purpose of the meeting. The outcome, you will have to say is | 0:14:56 | 0:14:59 | |
considerably less clear. Swansea is to become the first city | 0:14:59 | 0:15:03 | |
in the UK to divert traffic away from a busy main road to stop it | 0:15:03 | 0:15:07 | |
breaking European pollution levels. Monitoring equipment will measure | 0:15:07 | 0:15:12 | |
traffic flow, air quality and weather on Neath Road in Hafod. If | 0:15:12 | 0:15:14 | |
pollution levels are high, signs will tell drivers to use other | 0:15:14 | 0:15:20 | |
routes. Motorists are used to seeing | 0:15:20 | 0:15:23 | |
diversions for roadworks or accidents on a daily basis so a new | 0:15:23 | 0:15:27 | |
sign like this in Swansea won't particularly stand out. But it's | 0:15:27 | 0:15:31 | |
the first time in the UK that it's being used to try to lower | 0:15:31 | 0:15:40 | |
pollution levels in one particular place - Neath Road. This road is | 0:15:40 | 0:15:43 | |
very long and narrow and it is built up on either side with | 0:15:43 | 0:15:49 | |
terraced housing and shops. It creates a canyon effect. It means | 0:15:49 | 0:15:53 | |
at busy times like now, it is coming up to half past eight in the | 0:15:53 | 0:15:57 | |
morning, the cars are bumper-to- bumper, the exhaust fumes are | 0:15:57 | 0:16:01 | |
struggling to escape causing high levels of pollution. | 0:16:01 | 0:16:03 | |
The air quality here has been monitored since 2001 because the | 0:16:03 | 0:16:09 | |
pollution exceeds safe levels. It's a concern for local people. | 0:16:09 | 0:16:15 | |
It is terrible, the Doune Road. The Liberty Stadium and the cars. We | 0:16:15 | 0:16:22 | |
are worried about it. Are I have got to admit the fumes are burning, | 0:16:22 | 0:16:26 | |
I am a non-smoker so once it hits me is terrible. | 0:16:26 | 0:16:28 | |
The project is costing around �100,000 and the council is | 0:16:28 | 0:16:33 | |
confident if it's successful the scheme can be extended further. | 0:16:33 | 0:16:37 | |
This is part of a project we have developed with some people in | 0:16:37 | 0:16:41 | |
Sweden. It has been tried in Gothenburg to a certain extent. | 0:16:41 | 0:16:45 | |
We're trying it here, we are not the only place with the problem. | 0:16:46 | 0:16:50 | |
This is a location where people could divert from the worst- | 0:16:50 | 0:16:54 | |
affected roads. If we can give them the right information at the right | 0:16:54 | 0:16:56 | |
time. Heavy goods vehicles have already | 0:16:56 | 0:16:59 | |
been banned from driving on this road and buses have been diverted | 0:16:59 | 0:17:01 | |
to another running alongside but local businesses worry any more | 0:17:01 | 0:17:08 | |
diversions will lose them trade. rely on passing traffic. People can | 0:17:08 | 0:17:13 | |
pollinate get a paper. If they go around a different way it will mean | 0:17:13 | 0:17:18 | |
we have got less business coming in. First, it is not a good idea. | 0:17:18 | 0:17:20 | |
Initially, motorists will be asked to use alternative routes but plans | 0:17:20 | 0:17:24 | |
are in place to create a relief road in the next few years. | 0:17:24 | 0:17:27 | |
Good evening. Elation, frustration, euphoria and sheer agony. That | 0:17:27 | 0:17:31 | |
pretty much summed up what was an incredible weekend of Welsh sport. | 0:17:31 | 0:17:34 | |
Fans all over the country cheered and cried as Wales won the Triple | 0:17:34 | 0:17:36 | |
Crown at Twickenham, Nathan Cleverly defended his world title | 0:17:36 | 0:17:42 | |
and Malky Mackay's men stood up and nearly toppled the mighty Liverpool. | 0:17:42 | 0:17:52 | |

Williams leads the charge! A try for Wales. Still the WBO light- | 0:18:11 | 0:18:18 | |
heavyweight champion of the world, Nathan Cleverly. | 0:18:18 | 0:18:24 | |
Steven Jennings has put it wide. It will take a few days to get over | 0:18:24 | 0:18:27 | |
what happened at Wembley. But when the raw emotion has faded away, | 0:18:27 | 0:18:30 | |
Cardiff City will be able to reflect on how close they came to | 0:18:30 | 0:18:32 | |
winning a major trophy. They'd matched Premier League giants | 0:18:32 | 0:18:35 | |
Liverpool for 120 minutes, first taking the lead and then after a | 0:18:35 | 0:18:38 | |
Liverpool fight back, showing character to snatch a late | 0:18:38 | 0:18:43 | |
equaliser and take the match to penalties. | 0:18:43 | 0:18:45 | |
Anthony Gerrard says he'll be haunted by that final spot-kick for | 0:18:45 | 0:18:50 | |
the rest of his days. But he and his team-mates will also know they | 0:18:50 | 0:18:53 | |
can match the very best sides in the biggest games, as they try to | 0:18:53 | 0:19:01 | |
win promotion to the Premier League. Our team and our clubs have done | 0:19:01 | 0:19:09 | |
the Carling Cup -- Carling Cup row this season. I think we played well. | 0:19:09 | 0:19:14 | |
You lose with dignity and Rios today with a committee. Our boys | 0:19:14 | 0:19:19 | |
are cheering the fans. It is the first time for some of them to be | 0:19:19 | 0:19:22 | |
anywhere near somewhere like this. Their next test is a big one too, | 0:19:22 | 0:19:25 | |
at home to Championship promotion contenders West Ham on Sunday so | 0:19:25 | 0:19:27 | |
they'll need to recover quickly. This was boxer Nathan Cleverly on | 0:19:27 | 0:19:32 | |
Saturday in his world title fight in Cardiff. | 0:19:32 | 0:19:36 | |
It was his first fight in Wales for almost four years but he delivered. | 0:19:36 | 0:19:38 | |
Cleverly comprehensively outpointed his durable opponent Tommy Karpency | 0:19:38 | 0:19:41 | |
who'd never been stopped to make a successful third defence of his WBO | 0:19:41 | 0:19:47 | |
title. Cleverly's promoter is now looking to line-up a big fight in | 0:19:47 | 0:19:56 | |
Wales against the likes of Bernard After in the dressing rooms, there | 0:19:56 | 0:19:59 | |
was plenty of mutual respect and it's left Cleverly feeling | 0:19:59 | 0:20:07 | |
confident about the future. He came up to me at the final bell and said | 0:20:07 | 0:20:13 | |
you can beat anybody in the world. He has got good experience. That is | 0:20:13 | 0:20:16 | |
a good confidence boosters St from somebody who has been in the game | 0:20:16 | 0:20:23 | |
for a long time. I was pleased about that. I would use that now to | 0:20:23 | 0:20:25 | |
push me on to bigger and better fight. | 0:20:26 | 0:20:29 | |
Of course, the weekend had got off to the most dramatic of starts at | 0:20:29 | 0:20:32 | |
Twickeham. Scott Williams' late try proved to the decisive moment | 0:20:32 | 0:20:35 | |
against England. The bounce of the ball went their way just when it | 0:20:35 | 0:20:42 | |
mattered. The fans were delirious but the captain could barely watch. | 0:20:42 | 0:20:46 | |
I it is looked up and saw him going through. I was praying that | 0:20:46 | 0:20:50 | |
something would happen. He went over and above my head in my hands, | 0:20:50 | 0:20:56 | |
I could not believe. It fell to lucky. We have a very grounded, | 0:20:56 | 0:21:01 | |
mature bunch of players. They will keep themselves grounded, feet on | 0:21:01 | 0:21:06 | |
the floor. All those quotes but Italy is another game, it is the | 0:21:06 | 0:21:09 | |
next game. You're only as good as our next game. | 0:21:09 | 0:21:13 | |
It's not yet clear whether centre Jamie Roberts will be fit for that | 0:21:13 | 0:21:15 | |
game after injuring his knee at Twickenham nor the players who | 0:21:15 | 0:21:18 | |
missed the England game including hooker Huw Bennett. He's the latest | 0:21:18 | 0:21:21 | |
player to sign for a French club next season. He's leaving the | 0:21:21 | 0:21:24 | |
Ospreys for Lyon. The Triple Crown celebrations will be put to one | 0:21:24 | 0:21:27 | |
side later this week as the team refocus on their two remaining | 0:21:27 | 0:21:34 | |
matches. The Grand Slam is still on Lifelong Cardiff City fan and Chair | 0:21:34 | 0:21:37 | |
of Sport Wales, Professor Laura Mc Allister is here tonight. You were | 0:21:37 | 0:21:46 | |
at Wembley. Have you recovered? was a tremendous day. It would have | 0:21:46 | 0:21:50 | |
been wonderful to have brought home the Carling Cup but what a | 0:21:50 | 0:21:55 | |
performance. A fantastic tactics by the manager. You had 24 caps for | 0:21:55 | 0:22:00 | |
Wales and football. Malky Mackay is saying let's take this experience | 0:22:00 | 0:22:04 | |
and push on for promotion. Do you think that will happen? I hope it | 0:22:04 | 0:22:09 | |
will. As has such a wonderful team effort yesterday from the manager | 0:22:09 | 0:22:15 | |
down to the players. It was very tough. If you ask the Cardiff City | 0:22:15 | 0:22:19 | |
fans, this season is all about promotion. We have got to do it. | 0:22:19 | 0:22:25 | |
Fingers crossed this is a big impetus for B-team. In your role as | 0:22:25 | 0:22:29 | |
chair of Sport Wales, when there is a big sporting weekend like this do | 0:22:29 | 0:22:34 | |
you see a surge of interest in sport's so if anybody needed | 0:22:34 | 0:22:37 | |
convincing that Wales was a passionate sporting nation they | 0:22:38 | 0:22:41 | |
would have been convinced this weekend. This is about winning and | 0:22:41 | 0:22:45 | |
is a real sense that Wales as a nation can go and compete with the | 0:22:45 | 0:22:51 | |
best nations in the world and when. This is all about providing role | 0:22:51 | 0:22:55 | |
models for children so they see these fantastic Welsh Euros and one | 0:22:55 | 0:22:59 | |
to emulate them. It is an opportunity for children to get | 0:22:59 | 0:23:05 | |
involved in sport. As best we end Olympic year. When we see the Welsh | 0:23:05 | 0:23:11 | |
athletes been chosen for the Olympic team, and hopefully we will | 0:23:11 | 0:23:15 | |
get some medals, it will inspire a new generation of children to take | 0:23:15 | 0:23:19 | |
part in sport. It is such a fantastic thing that defines us as | 0:23:19 | 0:23:24 | |
a nation. Many thanks. I will talk too much more over the next coming | 0:23:24 | 0:23:27 | |
months. Swansea City lost 2-0 to Stoke | 0:23:27 | 0:23:29 | |
yesterday. Goalkeeper Michel Vorm was ruled out with illness giving | 0:23:29 | 0:23:33 | |
Gerhard Tremmel his debut for the Swans. Both goals came before half | 0:23:33 | 0:23:36 | |
time, the result taking Swansea down to 14th. Meanwhile Wales | 0:23:36 | 0:23:38 | |
Captain, Aaron Ramsey will miss Wednesday's Gary Speed memorial | 0:23:38 | 0:23:42 | |
match with Costa Rica at the Cardiff City Stadium. He hasn't | 0:23:42 | 0:23:52 | |
0:23:52 | 0:23:52 | ||
recovered from the ankle injury. We were blessed with some lovely | 0:23:52 | 0:23:58 | |
weather over the weekend. Catrin Walters took this picture looking | 0:23:58 | 0:24:04 | |
across Swansea Bay towards Mumbles lighthouse. But of course it was a | 0:24:04 | 0:24:08 | |
different story today with cloud bringing some rain. Over the next | 0:24:08 | 0:24:12 | |
few days there's more cloudy and mild weather to come. But like last | 0:24:13 | 0:24:16 | |
week some parts of the country will fair better than others. Flintshire | 0:24:17 | 0:24:20 | |
drier and brighter with spring-like temperatures. Pembrokeshire cooler | 0:24:20 | 0:24:27 | |
with some drizzle and sea fog. Tonight cloudy. Some patchy light | 0:24:27 | 0:24:31 | |
rain and drizzle. Mist, hill and coastal fog. Parts of the north and | 0:24:31 | 0:24:35 | |
east and the Marches becoming dry. And a mild night. Lowest | 0:24:35 | 0:24:39 | |
temperatures eight or nine Celsius. Tomorrow's chart shows high | 0:24:39 | 0:24:43 | |
pressure over France. The air over us will be mild but moist and full | 0:24:43 | 0:24:47 | |
of cloud. So tomorrow morning a grey cloudy start for much of the | 0:24:47 | 0:24:52 | |
country. Damp in places too with drizzle. Mist, hill and coastal fog. | 0:24:52 | 0:24:56 | |
Some poor visibility. Dry and brighter in parts of the east and | 0:24:56 | 0:25:00 | |
mild. At 8pm the temperature in Wrexham will be around 9 or 10 | 0:25:00 | 0:25:04 | |
Celsius. So plenty of cloud tomorrow. Some low cloud, drizzle | 0:25:04 | 0:25:07 | |
and mist otherwise dry and in places it will brighten-up. A | 0:25:07 | 0:25:11 | |
little sunshine on the north coast and Flintshire. Top temperatures 13 | 0:25:11 | 0:25:17 | |
or 14 Celsius. Nearer 10C on the south and west coast with light | 0:25:17 | 0:25:24 | |
winds. In Wrexham tomorrow dry. Bright at times. Temperatures in | 0:25:24 | 0:25:29 | |
Rossett rising to 14 Celsius. As for the outlook, not much change. | 0:25:29 | 0:25:33 | |
Plenty of cloud. Spots of drizzle and mist otherwise dry. Sunshine | 0:25:33 | 0:25:38 | |
for some and mild. On Flatholm, the water tanks need filling up before | 0:25:38 | 0:25:42 | |
the start of the visitor season and we may see some rain over the | 0:25:42 | 0:25:46 | |
weekend. By the way, it's a leap year. If it's your birthday on | 0:25:46 | 0:25:50 | |
Wednesday then let me know and I will try and put where you live on | 0:25:50 | 0:25:54 | |
my weather maps. Drop me an email or send me a message on twitter | 0:25:54 | 0:26:04 | |

Charlotte Church and her parents have agreed damages and costs of | 0:26:13 | 0:26:17 | |
six-under �1,000 with News Group Newspapers over claims that her | 0:26:17 | 0:26:24 | |
phone was tapped. -- �600,000. Let's talk to the media commentator. | 0:26:24 | 0:26:27 | |
Rupert Murdoch has treated in the last few minutes at his delight at | 0:26:27 | 0:26:34 | |
the sales figures for his new paper, over 3 million new readers. | 0:26:34 | 0:26:38 | |
Britain's appetite for tabloid is undiminished. Is anything going to | 0:26:38 | 0:26:46 | |
change? The payments are not going to make much difference, honestly. | 0:26:46 | 0:26:49 | |
You can see the story is distressing, you can see why | 0:26:49 | 0:26:54 | |
Charlotte Church was second. The company have continued to seek to | 0:26:54 | 0:26:59 | |
withhold information until the last minute, it does suggest they have | 0:26:59 | 0:27:03 | |
learnt nothing. They are not sorry about anything apart from being | 0:27:03 | 0:27:08 | |
caught. The thing that is making the big difference, the lover sent | 0:27:08 | 0:27:12 | |
process and all these courts payments, it is changing the way | 0:27:12 | 0:27:17 | |
the press works. Look at the Cern last Sunday, it was not the News of | 0:27:17 | 0:27:20 | |
the World. X-Ray's coming up in half an hour. | 0:27:20 | 0:27:28 | |
