Welcome to Wales Today. Our top story. | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
An airport the size of Gatwick here. Could Cardiff and Bristol be | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
replaced by a new operation in the Severn Estuary? | :00:11. | :00:18. | |
They took to the streets to protest against fracking in Wales. Tonight, | :00:18. | :00:21. | |
a senior government minister throws his weight behind shale gas. | :00:21. | :00:26. | |
One of Britain's top chefs, Bryn Williams, is to open a new eatery on | :00:26. | :00:32. | |
the North Wales coast. It's all over. 1,800 competitors | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
from 40 countries in Tenby's Ironman. | :00:34. | :00:43. | |
They've only been there twice before. Jubliation for fans and | :00:43. | :00:46. | |
players. Glamorgan are in a Lord's final for the first time in 13 | :00:46. | :00:48. | |
years. Good evening. Plans for a new Welsh | :00:48. | :01:10. | |
airport the size of Gatwick have been submitted to the Airports | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
Commission. The man behind the plans says the Welsh Government should | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
sell Cardiff airport and invest the money in the new site. Severnside | :01:16. | :01:20. | |
Airport would replace Cardiff and Bristol and be built in the Severn | :01:20. | :01:32. | |
Estuary. Jordan Davies has more. Hong Kong, one of the most iconic | :01:32. | :01:38. | |
cities in the world. Served by an engineering marvel. Hong Kong | :01:38. | :01:42. | |
airport. It was built on an island halfway around the world had decades | :01:42. | :01:47. | |
away from anything seen in Wales. Or is it? The air jet shaded in dread | :01:47. | :01:54. | |
could become Severnside Airport, a project with a runway built on a | :01:54. | :01:58. | |
man-made island in the Severn estuary. A similar proposal was | :01:58. | :02:04. | |
dismissed in number of years ago over a lack of concern -- over a | :02:04. | :02:14. | |
concern of a lack of passengers. But it is said now that the input could | :02:14. | :02:18. | |
be used to transform the Welsh economy. We would like the airport | :02:18. | :02:31. | |
owners to invest in the new airport. We think it will be possible to get | :02:31. | :02:36. | |
over international funds rather like the ones that come in to and | :02:36. | :02:47. | |
Heathrow who would be able to put in serious fans of money into building | :02:47. | :02:52. | |
the airport. The scale would be remarkable. It would open in 2029 | :02:52. | :02:58. | |
and Caddick 14.1 million passengers a year. But a trip -- relies on the | :02:58. | :03:05. | |
sale of Cardiff and Bristol airports. Bristol is seen as one of | :03:05. | :03:11. | |
the best performing regional airports and they have called the | :03:11. | :03:15. | |
plan is far-fetched. Cardiff has seen its passenger numbers halved | :03:15. | :03:25. | |
from its highest total two years ago. Plans for the revamped Cardiff | :03:25. | :03:32. | |
have been submitted as the Western Gateway. I do not think this will be | :03:32. | :03:39. | |
given the go-ahead. There are a variety of options for the Davis | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
commission put up this is one option. If this blue sky thinking of | :03:43. | :03:53. | |
a concrete proposal? Either way, the plans are for the future. It will be | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
a couple of years before we find out whether these proposals will take | :03:57. | :03:58. | |
off. Simon Calder is the travel editor of | :03:58. | :04:10. | |
the Independent. How likely is it that this Severnside Airport will be | :04:10. | :04:19. | |
built? I would probably give it 100 or 500 to one. -- against. That has | :04:19. | :04:28. | |
been an obsession about what we will do in the London area. This would | :04:28. | :04:32. | |
remind the Davis commission will have an awful lot of proposals to | :04:32. | :04:36. | |
sit through that that is an awful lot to be considered beyond Wales. | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
The basic problem is that you need to have a national airport for the | :04:41. | :04:46. | |
national capital and about the last place you would put it if you were | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
starting afresh is south-west of Cardiff. It is almost easier to get | :04:50. | :04:58. | |
to Bristol from East Cardiff until the current airport. What is the | :04:58. | :05:09. | |
future for the airport? It will not come forward and less radical steps | :05:09. | :05:14. | |
are taken. If you look at Iceland, it has set itself up as the aviation | :05:14. | :05:18. | |
hub of the north Atlantic and is doing well as they had. It is | :05:18. | :05:23. | |
possible but if you could knew and a line in, you could offer something | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
similar was up Cardiff is in a much better position in terms of | :05:27. | :05:31. | |
connecting to north America but we are a long way from that at the | :05:31. | :05:39. | |
moment. It is for the Welsh Government to question how can they | :05:39. | :05:42. | |
get things better than they are in now. It is up to them to question | :05:42. | :05:51. | |
how they can get into a wider UK provision? Ultimately, it will | :05:51. | :05:58. | |
depend on the commission on whether to expand Heathrow or do nothing | :05:58. | :06:06. | |
which will have an impact on Wales. The best result for travellers and | :06:06. | :06:09. | |
the Welsh Government would be to get some real tension going between | :06:09. | :06:14. | |
Cardiff and Bristol to get them closer in scale and that will have | :06:14. | :06:19. | |
lots of benefits for travellers and for the taxpayers in Wales. | :06:19. | :06:34. | |
A 22-year-old man from Newport has appeared in court charged with three | :06:34. | :06:37. | |
counts of attempted murder following a shooting in the city last week. | :06:37. | :06:41. | |
Lewis Bridge was arrested on Friday. A second Newport man, who was | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
arrested on suspicion of attempted murder, has been released on police | :06:44. | :06:50. | |
bail. A pensioner who admitted having | :06:50. | :06:53. | |
almost a quarter of a million child sex abuse images has been jailed for | :06:53. | :06:56. | |
12 months at Caernarfon Crown Court. 71-year-old Robert O'Brien from | :06:57. | :06:59. | |
Benllech on Anglesey was also ordered to register as a sex | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
offender for ten years. The court was told that many images were of | :07:02. | :07:07. | |
the most serious kind. Cheaper fuel bills and energy self | :07:07. | :07:10. | |
sufficiency. That's what supporters of Shale gas promise. It's suggested | :07:10. | :07:13. | |
that South Wales has huge reserves that could be tapped by a process | :07:13. | :07:16. | |
called fracking. But protestors in the Vale of Glamorgan have already | :07:16. | :07:19. | |
made clear their opposition to exploiting those reserves. Tonight a | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
senior government minister threw his weight behind the exploitation of | :07:22. | :07:24. | |
shale gas. Our Environment Correspondent Iolo ap Dafydd is | :07:25. | :07:28. | |
here. How significant is Ed Davey's speech? He is the UK energy | :07:28. | :07:35. | |
minister. He is a Liberal Democrat and part of the coalition government | :07:35. | :07:41. | |
but also he follows the Chancellor and also the Prime Minister in | :07:41. | :07:49. | |
supporting shale gas. A clear, warm support for shale gas. As long as it | :07:49. | :07:55. | |
is done in an environmentally friendly way and is economically | :07:55. | :07:59. | |
viable. That is a long way to go before we approach the situation we | :07:59. | :08:04. | |
have seen in America never hundreds of gas trials across the country. It | :08:04. | :08:12. | |
is inevitable that another new energy source will be controversial? | :08:12. | :08:19. | |
Fracking is taken as an abbreviation for all kinds of gas drilling. We | :08:19. | :08:27. | |
have seen protests in Wales, in the Vale of Glamorgan last year. There | :08:27. | :08:31. | |
was a drilling application to look for cars -- to look for gas. It is | :08:31. | :08:42. | |
relevant that people follow the arguments for this. With the | :08:42. | :08:48. | |
publication of another report by the Department of energy and climate | :08:49. | :08:54. | |
change, it says shale gas is not as bad as people make out. Less | :08:55. | :08:59. | |
emissions than burning coal or LNG gas. What could it mean for Wales? | :08:59. | :09:07. | |
The minister was cautious, much more cautious than the Prime Minister. In | :09:07. | :09:15. | |
-- if licences are issued by the Department, that will affect | :09:15. | :09:21. | |
everyone in these areas. If we do have shale gas, it means we will | :09:21. | :09:27. | |
import less LNG liquid gas into Pembrokeshire. That could affect the | :09:27. | :09:34. | |
application for a new power station in Pembrokeshire. | :09:34. | :10:05. | |
To Welsh MPs have been questioning the former director-general of the | :10:05. | :10:17. | |
BBC about the size of redundancy pay-outs to senior executives. The | :10:17. | :10:42. | |
Conservative MP and Labour sit It was short listed for the title of | :10:42. | :10:45. | |
Britain's Worst New Building, the Carbuncle Cup. | :10:45. | :10:47. | |
Though visitors this summer didn't seem to mind how it looked. Today, | :10:47. | :10:50. | |
First Minister Carwyn Jones opened Porth Eirias, a multi-million pounds | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
watersports centre on Colwyn Bay promenade. He revealed that the food | :10:53. | :10:57. | |
outlet there is to be run by one of Britain's top chefs. Roger Pinney is | :10:57. | :11:04. | |
there. The involvement of Bryn Williams means this development will | :11:04. | :11:14. | |
serve more than teas and coffees. There have been seaside cafes and | :11:15. | :11:19. | |
Colwyn Bay from far as long as anyone can remember. This answers | :11:19. | :11:30. | |
the usual fare. It is closing down in October. It is a decision by the | :11:30. | :11:34. | |
council. The operator says he would be more than happy to compete with a | :11:34. | :11:41. | |
newcomer across the way. I think it will be very expensive. We do not | :11:41. | :11:48. | |
know yet. Bryn Williams says he will be catering for a wide variety of | :11:48. | :11:53. | |
tastes and pocket. He is one of the country 's best-known chefs. Quite a | :11:53. | :12:02. | |
catch for the town. His involvement was announced by the first Minister | :12:02. | :12:11. | |
today. I did not want to go through my whole career without cooking in | :12:11. | :12:18. | |
Wales. I left when I was 20 and it would be a shame if I could not cock | :12:18. | :12:23. | |
back in Wales. His arrival is a Wellcome boost for the water sport | :12:23. | :12:34. | |
centre. Good weather in December coupled with improvements -- good | :12:34. | :12:43. | |
weather in the summer coupled with improvements could lead to better | :12:43. | :12:51. | |
times. It is part of a wider project to boost this flagging resort. We | :12:51. | :13:00. | |
have thought of adding a water sports centre as well. It is a | :13:00. | :13:04. | |
fantastic project. Colwyn Bay can then look back towards the sea with | :13:04. | :13:10. | |
more people in the summer. Criticism comes easy. A celebrity chef will | :13:10. | :13:15. | |
bring something new to this part of comes easy. A celebrity chef will | :13:15. | :13:21. | |
the North Wales coast. It is important that as the first Minister | :13:21. | :13:28. | |
said to put it in context. It is part of a much wider waterfront | :13:28. | :13:34. | |
project. That has been a refurbishment of the promenade and | :13:34. | :13:38. | |
even the beach I am standing on is man-made. Half 1 million of sand was | :13:38. | :13:44. | |
pumped in here in the spring. It is not finished yet. Perhaps in time, | :13:44. | :13:50. | |
critics were learned to love this place. | :13:50. | :13:53. | |
You're watching Wales Today. Much more to come before seven o'clock. | :13:53. | :13:57. | |
Glamorgan are hunting silver-wear for this trophy cabinet. They're | :13:57. | :14:01. | |
gearing up for their first final at Lords in 13 years. And there was no | :14:01. | :14:06. | |
lazy Sunday in Tenby this weekend. Thousands turned out for the Ironman | :14:06. | :14:08. | |
event. Earlier we were talking about the | :14:08. | :14:20. | |
plans for an airport for the Severn Estuary. Of course, a barrage across | :14:20. | :14:24. | |
from South Wales to Western Super Mare has long been discussed. But | :14:24. | :14:27. | |
tonight one of its leading supporters, the MP for Neath Peter | :14:27. | :14:30. | |
Hain, has criticised the UK Government for dragging its feet | :14:30. | :14:32. | |
Hain, has criticised the UK over the proposal. | :14:32. | :14:35. | |
Its supporters say it would give us energy for the future. Opponents say | :14:35. | :14:41. | |
it would be a disaster for the Severn wildlife. The latest scheme | :14:41. | :14:45. | |
to build an 11-mile long barrage across the Severn would cost | :14:45. | :14:47. | |
£25-billion and take around seven years to complete. The various | :14:47. | :15:00. | |
schemes to build a barrage have come and gone down the years. This latest | :15:00. | :15:05. | |
tourist centres on an exchange of letters between Peter Hain and the | :15:05. | :15:13. | |
Chancellor. The letters show Mr Osborne saying I need to see more | :15:13. | :15:17. | |
evidence surrounding the cost, benefits and impacts before I can | :15:17. | :15:21. | |
look at it includes -- greater detail. Mr Hain says I can only | :15:21. | :15:25. | |
conclude the government is not interested. The government is not | :15:25. | :15:31. | |
engaged properly. I have spent a year trying to persuade them | :15:31. | :15:38. | |
privately. I am fed up. They keep asking for more information. They | :15:38. | :15:43. | |
treat it differently compared to other power station and nuclear | :15:43. | :15:49. | |
power. Mr Hain wrote to the Chancellor after what he called the | :15:49. | :15:52. | |
negative attitude of the Energy Department and the scheme's had a | :15:52. | :15:55. | |
rocky ride since it was first unveiled. In June, the Commons | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
Energy Committee said the case for the barrage was unproven, there was | :15:58. | :16:01. | |
a lack of information and a perceived lack of transparency. It | :16:01. | :16:04. | |
went on to say that the company promoting the plans, Hafren Power | :16:04. | :16:07. | |
has yet to provide robust and independently verified evidence of | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
the viability of the project. Despite Mr Hain's frustration, the | :16:12. | :16:15. | |
company behind the scheme says it says it's still working hard to | :16:15. | :16:18. | |
convince ministers to give it the green light. I do not think it is | :16:18. | :16:25. | |
dead in the water. We might need a new focus and perhaps get the | :16:25. | :16:30. | |
government more involved as an active partner in the project going | :16:30. | :16:34. | |
forward. I do not think that take long to bring about. The options | :16:34. | :16:45. | |
remain on the table. People are coming out with new plans all the | :16:45. | :16:50. | |
time. That is a significant amount of tidal power available there. The | :16:50. | :16:56. | |
average output could be the equivalent to a couple of power | :16:56. | :17:00. | |
stations. The government insists no decision has been made, and it's | :17:01. | :17:04. | |
willing to look at any new evidence. So the plans remain on the table for | :17:04. | :17:06. | |
now. But it's also clear they're no So the plans remain on the table for | :17:06. | :17:14. | |
nearer being turned into reality. After years of campaigning by | :17:14. | :17:16. | |
parents, Wales' largest Welsh language primary school has opened | :17:16. | :17:19. | |
its doors to pupils for the first time. Ysgol Treganna in the Canton | :17:20. | :17:22. | |
area of Cardiff cost nearly £10-million. It was built to address | :17:22. | :17:25. | |
the demand for Welsh-medium primary school places in the west of the | :17:25. | :17:28. | |
city. Buildings, spare places and | :17:28. | :17:30. | |
performance will be looked at as part of a review of education in the | :17:30. | :17:34. | |
St David's area by Pembrokeshire Council. It will also consider the | :17:34. | :17:37. | |
future of Ysgol Dewi Sant, the city's secondary school. Parents | :17:37. | :17:40. | |
have been concerned that it could close as the council tackles surplus | :17:40. | :17:43. | |
places in the secondary sector. A woman has been bitten by a | :17:43. | :17:46. | |
ten-foot long python in Swansea. Sue Cull suffered bites to both her legs | :17:46. | :17:50. | |
while walking through long grass in the Dyfatty area of the city. Police | :17:50. | :17:53. | |
say a python had been reported missing but has now been captured. | :17:54. | :17:59. | |
There were scenes of euphoria from Glamorgan's cricketers at the | :17:59. | :18:02. | |
weekend. They're are heading to Lord's for only the third time in | :18:02. | :18:06. | |
their history. Glamorgan are in the final of the YB40, after beat | :18:06. | :18:10. | |
Hampshire. Claire's live at the Swalec Stadium tonight. | :18:10. | :18:14. | |
Thank you, good evening. Welcome to the memorabilia room here at the | :18:14. | :18:22. | |
home of Glamorgan. The cupboards been bare for the last few seasons. | :18:22. | :18:29. | |
They last won silverware in 2004 when they lifted the Sunday League | :18:29. | :18:35. | |
trophy. But fans, who've been snapping up tickets, are hoping the | :18:35. | :18:38. | |
Lord's final a week Saturday will mean a new piece of silverwear is | :18:38. | :18:48. | |
brought home to Wales. Some that app for us? My feet haven't touched the | :18:48. | :18:59. | |
floor yet. We were underdogs in Hampshire. We did not play like it. | :18:59. | :19:06. | |
It was an outstanding performance. Many did not think you had it in the | :19:06. | :19:11. | |
U. Is a performance like that, with everybody coming together, | :19:11. | :19:18. | |
syndication against criticism? It proves the ambition is here. We have | :19:18. | :19:24. | |
been telling people for a while but we are a good side. It is tough to | :19:24. | :19:28. | |
get people to believe you when the performances and not necessarily | :19:28. | :19:33. | |
there. Another competition was disappointing this year. To get | :19:33. | :19:37. | |
through to this final now shows the character in the side to bounce back | :19:37. | :19:42. | |
and put the performances in to get to the final. What does a | :19:42. | :19:50. | |
performance like that to four confidence? A lot of people said we | :19:50. | :19:56. | |
were underdogs and it did not fancy ass. They thought we were underdogs | :19:56. | :20:08. | |
-- fancy ass. We will take plenty of confidence in the B final. -- | :20:08. | :20:21. | |
entered the final. I have been trying to avoid the game they are | :20:21. | :20:24. | |
playing tonight. It'll be a tough game. Congratulations we will be | :20:24. | :20:29. | |
watching you closely. Football and Gareth Bale will not | :20:29. | :20:34. | |
start for Wales against Serbia. Manager Chris Coleman says he could | :20:34. | :20:36. | |
start for Wales against Serbia. be on the bench tomorrow night, but | :20:36. | :20:39. | |
he's under no pressure to play the most expensive player in the world | :20:39. | :20:43. | |
at the Cardiff City Stadium. Bale has had a scan today, and if that's | :20:43. | :20:47. | |
ok, Coleman could use him as a replacement. Today, he is thinking | :20:47. | :21:03. | |
he wants to have a scan and that it is clear. Psychologically, that will | :21:03. | :21:09. | |
put his mind at rest. His life has been turned upside down. He wants to | :21:09. | :21:19. | |
have that peace of mind. If he comes back, he will play some part | :21:20. | :21:21. | |
tomorrow night. Tenby came to a standstill yesterday | :21:21. | :21:25. | |
as 1,500 competitors from around the world took part in the third Ironman | :21:25. | :21:28. | |
Wales contest. Nearly 90, a record breaking number, were from | :21:28. | :21:34. | |
Pembrokeshire. Organisers say they're delighted with the local | :21:34. | :21:35. | |
support. Abigail Neal reports. The morning after the gruelling day | :21:35. | :21:46. | |
before. Ironmen and women ditched their diet plans and energy drinks | :21:46. | :21:49. | |
in favour of a nice sit down and some well deserved cake. It was all | :21:49. | :21:56. | |
in honour of the trophy ceremony today for a double UK victory. | :21:56. | :22:03. | |
31-year-old Lucy Gossage won Ironman UK five weeks ago and yesterday she | :22:03. | :22:06. | |
repeated that success 25 minutes ahead of her nearest rival. Gossage | :22:06. | :22:14. | |
praised the crowds for their help during the cycle up Saundersfoot's | :22:14. | :22:23. | |
notorious Heartbreak Hill. The support was unlike anything I have | :22:23. | :22:27. | |
ever experienced. That gave me a little boost. It was nice overtaking | :22:27. | :22:33. | |
the men on the hill as well. Scotland's Scott Neyedli crossed the | :22:33. | :22:36. | |
finish line in just over nine hours. A former pro who came out of | :22:36. | :22:40. | |
retirement for this race, he still hasn't got over his surprise. I | :22:40. | :22:43. | |
didn't expect to actually come away with a win. But a true and my years | :22:43. | :22:59. | |
of experience. -- I drew on my years of experience. When I saw the | :22:59. | :23:03. | |
opportunity, I grabbed onto it and went for that. 1,500 competitors | :23:03. | :23:06. | |
from 40 different countries made the dash from Tenby's North Beach | :23:06. | :23:08. | |
yesterday for a 2.4-mile swim, followed by a 112-mile bike ride and | :23:08. | :23:15. | |
then a marathon. The course is notoriously tough. There are no flat | :23:16. | :23:19. | |
sections, just up, down and back up again. The time spent training is | :23:19. | :23:26. | |
also tough on the athletes families. Ben Haines was out to watch his dad. | :23:26. | :23:33. | |
He has been very good. He trains all the time. Now in it's third year, | :23:33. | :23:37. | |
Ironman Wales is growing in popularity. 90 people from | :23:37. | :23:40. | |
Pembrokeshire took part this year, a record number of local competitors | :23:40. | :23:49. | |
for any Ironman event. We think Pembrokeshire, on a global scale, is | :23:49. | :23:53. | |
at the top of the list with the number of athletes taking part. That | :23:53. | :24:00. | |
is way up there and the athletes seem to have come from all different | :24:00. | :24:03. | |
experiences and backgrounds. It's estimated this ultimate triathlon | :24:03. | :24:05. | |
brings in more than £4-million to the Pembrokeshire economy. The good | :24:05. | :24:08. | |
news is, with such strong local support, organisers say they're | :24:08. | :24:11. | |
planning a long-term future for Tenby and the Ironman. | :24:11. | :24:18. | |
Well we've come outside, overlooking the pitch. Derek didn't take part in | :24:18. | :24:22. | |
Iron man this year. Next year, Derek?? | :24:22. | :24:26. | |
There's always next year. Then again I'd rather watch with an ice-cream! | :24:26. | :24:32. | |
Anyway, some lovely sunshine in Tenby today but not dry everywhere. | :24:32. | :24:36. | |
A few heavy showers in Powys and northeast. It does feel like autumn | :24:36. | :24:50. | |
now. Last week temperatures were in the low to mid 20s. This week, the | :24:50. | :24:54. | |
mid to high teens. The weather quite changeable. Some sunshine. A few | :24:54. | :24:59. | |
showers and some rain on the way. Tonight a few showers, mainly in the | :24:59. | :25:03. | |
north and west. Otherwise a dry night. Some clear spells. A few mist | :25:03. | :25:09. | |
and fog patches forming. Not as chilly as last night but quite cool | :25:09. | :25:14. | |
inland. Nine Celsius in Sennybridge. 13 Celsius in Llandudno. Tomorrow's | :25:14. | :25:18. | |
chart shows a deep low over the North Sea. High pressure to the west | :25:19. | :25:22. | |
of Ireland and that means brisker winds. Strong to gale force winds on | :25:22. | :25:28. | |
the east coast. So tomorrow breezier than today. A few showers in the | :25:28. | :25:36. | |
north and west. Otherwise dry. Some bright spells. The best of the | :25:36. | :25:42. | |
sunshine in the south. Temperatures 15 Celsius in Penmachno. 17 Celsius | :25:42. | :25:47. | |
in Neath with a cool northwesterly breeze, but out of the wind and in | :25:47. | :25:53. | |
the sunshine it will feel pleasant. In Bridgend county tomorrow, a nice | :25:53. | :25:57. | |
day. Dry with sunny spells. 16 Celsius in Maesteg. In Flintshire | :25:57. | :26:01. | |
tomorrow, breezy but drier than today. Sunshine at times. 15 Celsius | :26:01. | :26:05. | |
in Holywell. Tomorrow night generally dry. Just the odd light | :26:05. | :26:09. | |
shower in the west, in Pembrokeshire and on the Llyn Peninsula. Lowest | :26:09. | :26:15. | |
temps nine Celsius to 13 Celsius. Wednesday will start off dry and | :26:15. | :26:19. | |
bright but it won't last. Rain will spread from the northwest during the | :26:19. | :26:22. | |
day. Thursday drier for a time but cloud will thicken with some patchy | :26:22. | :26:26. | |
rain and drizzle spreading from the west. Friday cloudy with outbreaks | :26:26. | :26:30. | |
of rain and drizzle. Low cloud, mist and hill fog. Feeling humid. Drier | :26:30. | :26:34. | |
in the north. As for the weekend, some sunshine on Saturday. Sunday | :26:34. | :26:40. | |
windier with a little rain. Next week, the signs are it will turn | :26:40. | :26:44. | |
colder and windier. But high pressure may bring more settled | :26:44. | :26:47. | |
weather during the fourth week of September. | :26:47. | :26:48. | |
So breezy with some sunshine tomorrow but not dry all week, | :26:48. | :26:52. | |
Claire. Thanks Derek. And just a reminder tickets for the final at | :26:52. | :26:55. | |
Lord's on sale now. Glamorgan are hoping to take a good crowd with | :26:55. | :27:03. | |
them. For now, back to you in the studio. | :27:03. | :27:07. | |
The headlines again. Plans for a new Welsh airport, the size of Gatwick, | :27:07. | :27:10. | |
have been submitted to the Airports Commission. The man behind the plans | :27:10. | :27:13. | |
says the Welsh Government should sell Cardiff airport and invest the | :27:13. | :27:17. | |
money in the new site to be built in the Severn Estuary. The UK energy | :27:17. | :27:25. | |
minister has voiced his support for shale class exploitation. It is | :27:25. | :27:31. | |
suggested that sufferers could have huge reserves. There have already | :27:31. | :27:38. | |
been protests against fracking here. We'll have an update for you at | :27:38. | :27:42. | |
eight o'clock and I'll be back after the BBC News at Ten. That's Wales | :27:42. | :27:45. | |
Today, thank you for watching. From all | :27:45. | :27:45. |
