If they didn't know all three of them, they knew one of them. | :01:45. | :01:51. | |

Already reeling from one tragedy here in the centre of town, | :02:14. | :02:15. | |

A teenager from Anglesey will spend the rest of her life taking | :03:30. | :03:32. | |
medicines because of what she says are side affects from | :03:33. | :03:35. | |
16-year-old Elin Rowlands, from Llangefni, had to have most | :03:36. | :03:41. | |
Now her mother says the drug, Roaccutane, should be banned. | :03:42. | :03:47. | |
Her front room has become her classroom. | :03:48. | :03:56. | |
Elin Rowlands may be back from hospital, but her life is still | :03:57. | :03:59. | |
Not that most of us would recognise it as normal. | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
She says the drug which was supposed to help with acne brought on side | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
I was in the hospital and they found out it was pancreatitis. | :04:09. | :04:14. | |
And this was one week before I was supposed to go to New York. | :04:15. | :04:17. | |
They were like, "You'll be fine, it's just a drip." | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
I started throwing up this black stuff and my body went into shock. | :04:21. | :04:29. | |
Elin was taken to Alder Hey Children's Hospital | :04:30. | :04:31. | |
In a series of operations there, she had all but | :04:32. | :04:36. | |
The drug Roaccutane is commonly prescribed as an acne treatment. | :04:37. | :04:42. | |
Some of its possible side effects, such as depression, | :04:43. | :04:45. | |
In a statement, the manufacturers, Roche, told us... | :04:46. | :05:03. | |
I have to take six of them every time I eat. | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
Every time you eat? Every time. | :05:07. | :05:08. | |
Elin Rowlands and her mum Denise say what seemed | :05:09. | :05:11. | |
like a simple solution to an acne problem has left her to spend | :05:12. | :05:15. | |
Some simply so she can digest her food. | :05:16. | :05:20. | |
Both now question whether Roaccutane should be available at all. | :05:21. | :05:23. | |
I should be going out with my friends, but I can't | :05:24. | :05:35. | |
because I can't walk very far and I get tired really easily. | :05:36. | :05:40. | |
I'm trying to be normal, but it's hard. | :05:41. | :05:46. | |
With the side effects, I don't think that teenagers | :05:47. | :05:49. | |
Well, I don't anyone should be on it. | :05:50. | :05:56. | |
I know it's been around for years, I think it's been used for acne | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
To be sure, many people have been helped by this drug. | :06:01. | :06:13. | |
But in Elin's case, the damage she believes it's done | :06:14. | :06:15. | |
79 jobs have been safeguarded following the sale | :06:16. | :06:21. | |
Administrators have negotiated the deal for Caparo Wire to be bought | :06:22. | :06:27. | |

From today, landlords in Wales have to register their | :06:35. | :06:40. | |
properties on a new list which is aimed at clamping down on rouges. | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
The Welsh government says there will be checks | :06:45. | :06:46. | |
on prospective landlords to see if they are fit and proper. | :06:47. | :06:53. | |
However, the Residential Landlord's Association says it's worried | :06:54. | :06:55. | |
about the cost of Rent Smart Wales, and question what it will do to | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
We think it'll be good for tenants to be able to ask | :06:59. | :07:04. | |
They can ask the landlord, "Are you registered, have you got a license?" | :07:05. | :07:09. | |
I think tenants will be a very good source of information to make | :07:10. | :07:11. | |
It's about getting the message out and, certainly, it was encouraging | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
to hear morning how many phone calls Rent Smart Wales' | :07:16. | :07:18. | |
Former World Champion, Becky James, is set to represent Great Britain | :07:19. | :07:24. | |
for the first time in nearly two years. | :07:25. | :07:28. | |
The 23-year-old, from Abergavenny, who was out of the sport | :07:29. | :07:31. | |
for 18 months following a knee injury and a cancer scare, | :07:32. | :07:34. | |
has been named in the Great Britain squad for the Track World Cup | :07:35. | :07:37. | |
Let's see what the weather has in store. | :07:38. | :07:43. | |
It was a frosty start to the week, but a brief cold snap because it | :07:44. | :07:55. | |
will turn milder and more unsettled through this week. A weather front | :07:56. | :08:00. | |
brings thicker cloud and some rain across Wales. Overnight, rain moves | :08:01. | :08:06. | |
south-eastwards. Heavy at times but drier conditions followed with a few | :08:07. | :08:12. | |

showers. Across the UK they are heaviest in the north and west, | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
especially across Northern Ireland and western Scotland. Wintry in the | :08:28. | :08:32. | |
hills. Drier further south and east but showers will push in on brisk | :08:33. | :08:40. | |
north-westerly winds. In Wales, some heavier showers by the afternoon. | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
Especially in the north and west. Feeling milder than today, eight | :08:45. | :08:49. | |
Celsius in Flintshire. Ten in Carmarthenshire but with brisk | :08:50. | :08:54. | |
winds. Cloudy tomorrow night with outbreaks of rain moving south | :08:55. | :08:59. | |
eastwards on and off. Strong winds overnight and milder at 6-10 | :09:00. | :09:04. | |
Celsius. Wednesday looks bright and breezy but with blustery showers. | :09:05. | :09:08. | |
The heaviest in the West with brisk north-westerly winds. Highs of | :09:09. | :09:13. | |
9-11 C. Wednesday night into Thursday, if we follow the isobars | :09:14. | :09:20. | |
the winds move from north to West introducing milder air. It could be | :09:21. | :09:26. | |
cloudy, but mostly dry. Patchy rain further west. Milder temperatures | :09:27. | :09:34. | |
back in a double figures. More wind and rain on Friday as weather | :09:35. | :09:37. | |
friends push in from the west bringing wet and windy weather at | :09:38. | :09:42. | |
times. Mixed weather at times. Very changeable. Signs of a cold snap | :09:43. | :09:44. | |
again by next weekend. That's Wales Today, | :09:45. | :09:46. | |
