Tonight's headlines: They planned to supply millions of pounds

:00:00.:00:07.

But tonight, an organised crime gang is jailed for a total of more

:00:08.:00:11.

There's no doubt they are motivated by greed with no thought for the

:00:12.:00:30.

affect on the communities in which they live.

:00:31.:00:31.

Last seen twenty years ago, John Sabine's skeleton was found

:00:32.:00:33.

Police say his late wife is the main suspect in a murder investigation.

:00:34.:00:37.

Ryan Ford sped through Porthcawl, crashing into a nightclub smoking

:00:38.:00:40.

We are reassured to have a happy baby on board.

:00:41.:00:54.

Smartphone apps to monitor conditions, GP consultations

:00:55.:00:56.

The plan to put digital technology at the heart of the health service.

:00:57.:01:03.

It is always so busy, and there is no time, you can do it at home, much

:01:04.:01:09.

easier. In tonight's sport:

:01:10.:01:12.

The speculation at Swansea City - Ryan Giggs linked

:01:13.:01:15.

to the vacant manager s job at the Liberty following

:01:16.:01:16.

the sacking of Garry Monk. Thirteen members of a Welsh

:01:17.:01:37.

"organised crime group" - who planned to supply millions

:01:38.:01:40.

of pounds worth of Albanian and Spanish drugs to Wales -

:01:41.:01:42.

have been sentenced to a total Gwent police believe

:01:43.:01:45.

the multi-million pound haul of "high purity cocaine"

:01:46.:01:49.

and mephedrone is the largest Pure cocaine - that was ready to be

:01:50.:01:51.

mixed with other chemicals - Up to ?4.5 million

:01:52.:01:58.

worth of the drug sourced Police say it's one of the largest

:01:59.:02:08.

operations they've There's no doubt that organised

:02:09.:02:19.

crime groups are motivated by greed with no regard or consequence for

:02:20.:02:21.

the effect that the drugs have on the communities within which they

:02:22.:02:27.

live and operate. I think that sentences like today will send a

:02:28.:02:31.

strong message to members of the public that they are not

:02:32.:02:32.

untouchable. Today thirteen men all

:02:33.:02:33.

from the Gwent area were sentenced to a total of more

:02:34.:02:35.

than 53 years in prison. For conspiring to supply

:02:36.:02:38.

cocaine and mephedrone Some of the men were described

:02:39.:02:39.

as couriers some acted as second But this is the man

:02:40.:02:47.

who ran the operation. 28 year old Ashley Burgham

:02:48.:02:51.

from Blaina described as the "head And although in charge

:02:52.:02:54.

he who would never "handle" But one drugs worker feels sentences

:02:55.:02:57.

like this are only half the battle. And the drugs came to Wales

:02:58.:03:03.

from thousands of miles away. There's so much of these drugs

:03:04.:03:15.

around and sometimes you look at the way we criminalise people who get

:03:16.:03:18.

drugs in and you wonder is the system working, is it fit for

:03:19.:03:22.

purpose? And I really think that the fact that it would not flood the

:03:23.:03:29.

market is indicative of the fact that policy as a whole is not

:03:30.:03:31.

working in Wales or the UK. And the drugs came to Wales

:03:32.:03:33.

from thousands of miles away. Meetings were organised

:03:34.:03:36.

with the "head" of an Albanian crime gang described as an

:03:37.:03:38.

"upstream" supplier. The group met a courier

:03:39.:03:40.

from the gang fifteen times. the group turned to a middle man

:03:41.:03:44.

working for a gang in Spain. The court heard the group tried

:03:45.:03:50.

to meet this middle man on a "regular" basis four

:03:51.:03:53.

times a month. Groups which help people with drug

:03:54.:03:55.

problems say a number of routes Cocaine is a cultivated drug. South

:03:56.:04:07.

America, often Colombia, from there it is exported into Europe, often

:04:08.:04:11.

through Spain, distributed through criminal networks, across the

:04:12.:04:14.

continent, finding its way into Wales. Methadone on the other hand

:04:15.:04:19.

is manufactured in the far east, China, sent through networks on the

:04:20.:04:23.

Internet into Europe then distributed in the same way.

:04:24.:04:24.

The court heard this was about "profit" which went

:04:25.:04:26.

to the head of the group Ashley Burgham.

:04:27.:04:34.

More than ?205,000 was seized by police.

:04:35.:04:36.

These men were involved in a criminal conspiracy that

:04:37.:04:38.

spanned a continent with its roots in Blaunau Gwent.

:04:39.:04:40.

Sentencing them judge Daniel Williams said they "played

:04:41.:04:42.

Police investigating the discovery of human remains in Beddau last

:04:43.:04:51.

month say they belonged to a man who was last seen in 1997

:04:52.:04:55.

and that his wife is now the main suspect in the murder investigation.

:04:56.:04:58.

John and Leigh-Ann Sabine moved to the area in February that year.

:04:59.:05:01.

Our reporter Kate Morgan is in Beddau for us -

:05:02.:05:09.

The enquiry was launched last month when human remains were found

:05:10.:05:21.

wrapped in plastic at the back of this site in a communal garden. They

:05:22.:05:25.

today are saying it is a complex investigation uncovering

:05:26.:05:27.

extraordinary circumstances. We now know those remains belonged

:05:28.:05:29.

to John Sabine. He moved into these flats

:05:30.:05:35.

with his wife in February 1997 and in that same year police believe

:05:36.:05:38.

he disappeared, although he was A post-mortem investigation shows

:05:39.:05:41.

Mr Sabine's injuries suggest Police say his wife Leigh Ann

:05:42.:05:44.

who died at the end of October at the age of 74 with cancer,

:05:45.:05:56.

is the main suspect The couple have children

:05:57.:05:58.

who they were estranged from. They've been kept up

:05:59.:06:09.

to date by police. The people in this community tonight

:06:10.:06:17.

say they are shocked. You don't expect these type of

:06:18.:06:25.

things to happen in the village you live in, to be honest. Now that

:06:26.:06:28.

people know what has happened it gives a little bit of closure

:06:29.:06:31.

knowing that there's not a murderer out on the loose. I have spoken to

:06:32.:06:41.

people already interviewed by the police, officers want more

:06:42.:06:42.

information. Firstly they want anyone who knew

:06:43.:06:46.

John or Leigh-Ann to get in touch with them, particularly if they may

:06:47.:06:49.

have met or spent time with them They're also asking people

:06:50.:06:52.

if they knew anything about the plastic wrapping that

:06:53.:06:55.

Mr Sabine was concealed in. South Wales Police say they're also

:06:56.:06:58.

looking in to the couple's finances to see what they can

:06:59.:07:00.

learn from them. They say anyone with any information

:07:01.:07:02.

at all should call 101. A health worker was probably

:07:03.:07:07.

to blame for a hospital error which caused the death

:07:08.:07:10.

of a pensioner from Flintshire. Alan Walker's feeding tube

:07:11.:07:12.

was wrongly connected to his drip causing liquid food to go directly

:07:13.:07:17.

into his blood stream. A coroner has said

:07:18.:07:20.

lessons should be learnt. From the inquest in Ruthin,

:07:21.:07:23.

Roger Pinney reports. When Alan Walker's family were

:07:24.:07:36.

called to the hospital they knew he was facing a medical emergency.

:07:37.:07:40.

There has been a horrible incident, they were told. His feeding tube had

:07:41.:07:45.

been connected to his trip line. The 81-year-old died that night, liquid

:07:46.:07:50.

food had gone direct to his bloodstream. He suffered toxic shock

:07:51.:07:55.

than a heart attack. Despite a police investigation, a health board

:07:56.:07:59.

enquiry, and a two-day inquest, nobody has been able to say exactly

:08:00.:08:03.

who it was that made what turned out to be a fatal mistake. But today the

:08:04.:08:07.

coroner said that more likely than not it had been a health care

:08:08.:08:11.

professional. The inquest heard the nurse who discovered the mistake

:08:12.:08:15.

panicked, he said he had never come across an incident like it before.

:08:16.:08:19.

The water consultant described it as bizarre. Alan's grand daughter,

:08:20.:08:25.

Sarah, said, I don't want this to happen again, we have lost a big

:08:26.:08:29.

part of our family, it has destroyed us. The hospital, she said, should

:08:30.:08:36.

learn lessons. In a statement denied the health board said that this

:08:37.:08:39.

exceptionally rare incident resulted in a robust and for investigation,

:08:40.:08:46.

the manufacturer is reviewing the equipment. They also offered

:08:47.:08:50.

condolences to the family. Recording a verdict of accidental death John

:08:51.:08:54.

Gittens said he was concerned that two incidents in which Alan's

:08:55.:08:58.

feeding tube had become disconnected were not recorded in his notes, so

:08:59.:09:02.

the information was never shared. Lessons should be learnt, he said.

:09:03.:09:04.

An independent review of the Waterhouse inquiry

:09:05.:09:06.

into historical abuse at children's homes in North Wales

:09:07.:09:08.

It was set up three years ago by Lady Justice Macur.

:09:09.:09:14.

She's now delivered it to both the Secretary of State for Justice

:09:15.:09:17.

and the Secretary of State for Wales and the UK government says it

:09:18.:09:20.

will be considered as a matter of urgency.

:09:21.:09:25.

The crowd-funding website Kickstarter has hired a journalist

:09:26.:09:28.

to investigate the demise of a Pembrokeshire-based mini-drone

:09:29.:09:31.

project that failed despite record funding.

:09:32.:09:35.

More than ?2.3 million was pledged to the Zano project by more

:09:36.:09:39.

than 12,000 people, which collapsed last month.

:09:40.:09:45.

Patients will be able to consult with their GP using a smartphone

:09:46.:09:48.

and monitor their conditions via mobile apps -as part

and monitor their conditions via mobile apps as part

:09:53.:09:54.

The Health Minister says the five year plan is intended to put digital

:09:55.:09:59.

technology at the heart of the health service here.

:10:00.:10:01.

We're back to the home page again... This smartphone is about to ring an

:10:02.:10:15.

end to an exhausting routine for pregnant mother, ceilidh. The last

:10:16.:10:19.

few months she has been coming to the Royal Glamorgan Hospital three

:10:20.:10:24.

times a week. Her child's heartbeat has needed regular monitoring, now

:10:25.:10:27.

this mobile kit is she will be able to do the checkup herself at home.

:10:28.:10:32.

We can check that the trace is coming through. They are reassured,

:10:33.:10:36.

we are reassured that we have a happy baby on board. And without the

:10:37.:10:42.

stress of having to come down. Because it is always so busy here,

:10:43.:10:48.

there no time, but you can just do it at home, it is much easier. Using

:10:49.:10:54.

mobile technology to offer care for patients at home is the sort of

:10:55.:10:57.

thing the Welsh Government would like to see happening more widely.

:10:58.:11:01.

Launched today a new digital strategy for NHS Wales means more of

:11:02.:11:05.

us can do things like book appointments and access health

:11:06.:11:08.

records online. You can also use smartphones or tablets to manage

:11:09.:11:13.

long-term health conditions like diabetes or asthma. A range of apps

:11:14.:11:19.

will send you reminders to attend appointments, takes medication, or

:11:20.:11:22.

take some exercise. And there will be more opportunity for you to talk

:11:23.:11:26.

to Doctor over a secure link rather than heading to the surgery.

:11:27.:11:34.

Intranets, kidney patients with dialysis at home are already linking

:11:35.:11:40.

up specialist nurses over Skype. More of us using this technology in

:11:41.:11:43.

our daily lives it is hoped bringing the NHS up to speed will help make

:11:44.:11:48.

it more efficient. When people get used to doing these sorts of things

:11:49.:11:53.

it is a better experience for the patient, it captures their

:11:54.:11:55.

contribution to making their own health care better in the future.

:11:56.:11:59.

But some say more needs to be done to improve mobile phone and

:12:00.:12:02.

broadband coverage if the strategy is to work. As well as making sure

:12:03.:12:06.

elderly patients are not left behind.

:12:07.:12:09.

There is a big risk that some people will not be able to take advantage

:12:10.:12:12.

of this so we must retain traditional services whilst we

:12:13.:12:17.

develop digital alternatives. Clearly, you know, it has a

:12:18.:12:20.

significant role to play, and over time, I think, more and more people

:12:21.:12:25.

will be able to access services. But we need to recognise that there will

:12:26.:12:28.

be practical challenges that need to be overcome and infrastructure is

:12:29.:12:31.

certainly lacking in many parts of Wales and that is something that

:12:32.:12:35.

will have a strong bearing on the take-up of these services. Health

:12:36.:12:41.

boards have five years to plan and intimate the new strategy, who knows

:12:42.:12:44.

what else our smartphones will be able to do by then?

:12:45.:12:45.

A balancing act for the Culture Minister as cuts to the arts

:12:46.:12:50.

are announced, concern they could impact on

:12:51.:12:51.

And these young girls are gymnasts they've left home and are now living

:12:52.:13:02.

together as part their training for the Commonwealth Games.

:13:03.:13:06.

A 24 year old man from Porthcawl has been jailed for 3 years and 10

:13:07.:13:09.

months after the car he was driving crashed into a group of people

:13:10.:13:12.

Ryan Ford was being chased by police when he lost control of the car

:13:13.:13:17.

which injured 21 people and left some of them needing surgery.

:13:18.:13:22.

These are the moments leading up to the crash which seriously injured

:13:23.:13:35.

six people the driver loses control and hit a group gathered outside a

:13:36.:13:43.

nightclub. Ryan Ford Was driving well above the speed limit when he

:13:44.:13:46.

lost control of the Abbey. He pleaded guilty to six counts of

:13:47.:13:52.

dangerous driving. One to failing to provide a specimen for analysis and

:13:53.:13:56.

one for driving without insurance. He drove his car down the middle of

:13:57.:14:00.

the road at high speed, and then crashed into a group of people

:14:01.:14:03.

standing in a designated smoking area outside of a nightclub. A metal

:14:04.:14:07.

barrier was around the group at the time, it is believed may have

:14:08.:14:12.

entered the talent is. The court heard one eyewitness described the

:14:13.:14:14.

moment after the incident as carnage -- prevented fatalities. Bodies on

:14:15.:14:22.

the floor and people screaming and running around. A number required

:14:23.:14:29.

surgery to the lower limbs. A lot of promising careers have been

:14:30.:14:31.

affected as a result of the injuries. University time affected,

:14:32.:14:40.

possibly having to recent years, there was a sportsman affected as a

:14:41.:14:49.

result, may not now be able to turn professional.

:14:50.:14:53.

The court heard statements today including that of promising

:14:54.:14:57.

Glamorgan cricketer, Tom Dalton, who said what happened that night left

:14:58.:15:00.

him feeling angry and restricted. The extent of his injuries have been

:15:01.:15:04.

life changing. The events of that night in October have affected the

:15:05.:15:10.

lives of many. Terry Jones runs a greengrocers business directly

:15:11.:15:12.

opposite nightclub. He told me of the wider impact it has had on the

:15:13.:15:15.

community. I lost a sister to a car crash. So

:15:16.:15:20.

obviously incidents like this are close to my heart. It is quite

:15:21.:15:26.

upsetting. Especially for my parents, you know, it drags up bad

:15:27.:15:29.

memories really. On sentencing it said some of the

:15:30.:15:37.

victims suffered life changing injuries and it was a miracle nobody

:15:38.:15:41.

was killed. Ryan Ford was jailed for three years and ten months and will

:15:42.:15:43.

serve half on licence. There are concerns that cuts

:15:44.:15:45.

to the culture budget could have an impact

:15:46.:15:47.

on services to the public. That's a warning from

:15:48.:15:50.

the National Museum. Their budget along with

:15:51.:15:55.

the Arts Council of Wales and the National Library

:15:56.:16:06.

will be cut by 4.7 percent The Welsh Government has defended

:16:07.:16:08.

the cuts -and says it's committed Here's our arts and media

:16:09.:16:12.

correspondent, Huw Thomas. Some say politics can be a circus

:16:13.:16:15.

but the culture minister on a flying Ken Skates took to the bars

:16:16.:16:18.

to announce Welsh government support for NoFit State to take their show

:16:19.:16:22.

to New York. But other companies face a financial

:16:23.:16:25.

tightrope walk as they deal with cuts to their budgets of just

:16:26.:16:27.

under 5 per cent next year. There is always good to be a role

:16:28.:16:37.

for government to provide core funding for arts organisations. What

:16:38.:16:44.

was announced this week is a lot smaller than me have seen in England

:16:45.:16:47.

where we have seen the loss of a number of arts organisations. That

:16:48.:16:48.

has not happened in Wales. The National Museum says the million

:16:49.:16:50.

pounds it's losing will As public funds reduce,

:16:51.:16:52.

it's preparing to launch its first In January visitors to its Cardiff

:16:53.:16:56.

museum will be able to see famous props from the Indiana Jones films,

alongside real It'll cost ?7 for adults,

:17:02.:17:03.

though children go free. Elsewhere, rich supporters are

:17:04.:17:11.

offering some financial stability. The philanthropist David Seligman

:17:12.:17:19.

gave a "significant sum" to the Chapter arts centre

:17:20.:17:21.

in Cardiff this week. But one-off donations are unlikely

:17:22.:17:24.

to replace core public funding Citizens who can pay into that, that

:17:25.:17:38.

is extremely valuable, but even if those individuals did not exist

:17:39.:17:42.

Wales would the arts to be publicly funded. -- would need. In that

:17:43.:17:49.

sense, we, the taxpayers, are all philanthropists.

:17:50.:17:50.

Arts companies are already preparing for the impact of next year's cut.

:17:51.:17:53.

NoFit State circus relies on a mixture of public funds

:17:54.:17:55.

and commercial income and has to factor financial uncertainty

:17:56.:17:57.

The funding we have is necessary to give us some security and sustain

:17:58.:18:08.

our existence and allow us to plan ahead. Without that continued

:18:09.:18:13.

support we would really struggle. But yes, a lot of people in the arts

:18:14.:18:15.

are really going to face a squeeze. Creatively, the arts

:18:16.:18:18.

are flying high in Wales - but now must

:18:19.:18:21.

practice their own acrobatics Manchester United boss Louis van

:18:22.:18:22.

Gaal says he'll speak to his assistant Ryan Giggs

:18:23.:18:29.

about reports linking him The Former Wales captain has been

:18:30.:18:31.

linked with the role following Garry Monk's

:18:32.:18:42.

departure from the Liberty Meanwhile, Cardiff City manager

:18:43.:18:43.

Russell Slade has been speaking about his disappointment

:18:44.:18:46.

over Monk's dismissal. It seems to happen with alarming

:18:47.:18:59.

regularity in our game. It seems to be part parcel of it now. It is

:19:00.:19:05.

always a tinge of disappointment when you see a manager go because

:19:06.:19:10.

you know how difficult the job can be. And how disappointed they will

:19:11.:19:14.

be. We can only hope that somebody like Garry Monk will bounce back

:19:15.:19:17.

quickly and back in the game and I'm sure he will.

:19:18.:19:18.

Slade's men welcome Sheffield Wednesday tomorrow.

:19:19.:19:20.

They're entering a "critical" period in their bid for promotion

:19:21.:19:22.

to the Premier League according to the Manager.

:19:23.:19:24.

The Swans face Manchester City under the Caretaker boss Alan Curtis.

Newport are at Notts County while Wrexham travel to Tranmere

:19:27.:19:29.

The Football Association of Wales have escaped a fine but have been

:19:30.:19:35.

reprimanded by Uefa European football's governing body,

:19:36.:19:39.

for failing to play Kazakhstan's national anthem before Wales women's

:19:40.:19:42.

4-0 win at the Euro 2017 qualifier last month.

:19:43.:19:47.

Uefa also warned the FAW after fans stood around the pitch

Rugby Wales and Scarlets Centre Scott Williams has signed

:19:51.:19:57.

a new contract which will keep him with the Region until 2018.

:19:58.:20:01.

The WRU withdrew their offer of a fresh national dual contract

It's a weekend of European fixtures with the Blues up first tonight

against Montpellier in the Challenge Cup.

:20:13.:20:13.

In the Champions Cup Scarlets travel to Glasgow as the Ospreys welcome

:20:14.:20:18.

The advantage is definitely on the side of the home team but it is only

:20:19.:20:33.

as good as you use it, and you make it. Against a team like bother, who

:20:34.:20:42.

have shown last week a brand of rugby that is threatening and very

:20:43.:20:47.

dangerous, it is making sure that we user advantage to suit us.

:20:48.:20:51.

They were the success story of the Commonwealth Games,

:20:52.:20:57.

winning 10 medals for Wales in Glasgow last

:20:58.:21:02.

a new training programme is reaping rewards.

:21:03.:21:05.

Athletes as young as 11 from across the country have left

:21:06.:21:10.

home and now live, train and go to school together,

:21:11.:21:12.

at improving their chances at the next Commonwealth Games.

:21:13.:21:15.

Tomos Dafydd spent the day with the gymnasts.

:21:16.:21:19.

It is no ordinary household. With nine gymnasts all under one roof and

:21:20.:21:26.

breakfast is always busy. Fuel for another full day. 14-year-old,

:21:27.:21:32.

Natalia, used to travel to training from Merthyr every day. But since

:21:33.:21:35.

moving in with team-mates closer to the gym there is no time for

:21:36.:21:39.

training. But leaving her parents, says, was difficult. It is hard, I

:21:40.:21:45.

miss them quite a lot. When we go home on a weekend we make use of

:21:46.:21:50.

that, we make the most of that. With our families. At first they were

:21:51.:21:54.

like, no way, she is not going, but they know how much I love the sport,

:21:55.:22:00.

so they let me go. But there is plenty of help at hand. The parents

:22:01.:22:03.

of these athletes take it in turns to look after the household. Each

:22:04.:22:09.

one of us take a night. For example, my night is Monday. It involves

:22:10.:22:13.

getting your early, cooking and dinner, then picking them up,

:22:14.:22:16.

ringing them back, and they all have them together. We clean up, the

:22:17.:22:22.

girls make their own packed lunch, they are very independent, get up

:22:23.:22:26.

the next day, they make breakfast, but everything away, and I make sure

:22:27.:22:31.

they get away on time for training. It is not seven o'clock yet in the

:22:32.:22:36.

gymnasts are off to work. Athletes living and training together is not

:22:37.:22:40.

a new idea. Starting as young as 11 is unusual. They train for around

:22:41.:22:48.

two hours before school everyday. Natalia is part of the Junior Great

:22:49.:22:52.

Britain team, the name? A place at the Tokyo Olympics in 2020. And a

:22:53.:22:56.

place in the Wales Commonwealth Games squad. They all attended the

:22:57.:23:02.

same high school so we have a good relationship and a good

:23:03.:23:04.

communication with just one school rather than money. And it means that

:23:05.:23:09.

the travelling distance has reduced, which means the recovery times

:23:10.:23:14.

longer. Hence I am able to train more than once a day. What is the

:23:15.:23:20.

nutritional value for the Victoria sponge? Natalia, like most other

:23:21.:23:24.

gymnasts goes to school here in Cardiff. The schools approached

:23:25.:23:29.

because of its track record in promising athlete. Former pupils,

:23:30.:23:37.

Sam Warbuton, and Gareth Bale. After school, back to the gymnasium.

:23:38.:23:40.

Around 34 hours spent here every week. Last year Welsh gymnasts

:23:41.:23:45.

enjoyed a staggering success of the Commonwealth Games. Earning an

:23:46.:23:49.

unprecedented haul of ten medals. We hope now is that this new training

:23:50.:23:53.

programme will help produce more medal winning gymnast of the future.

:23:54.:23:55.

Welsh football fans have been looking forward to the Euro 2016

:23:56.:23:57.

In Paris tomorrow they'll learn who Chris Coleman's Men will be

:23:58.:24:01.

Wales' qualification was largely achieved through defensive

:24:02.:24:06.

discipline and the attacking brilliance of Gareth Bale.

:24:07.:24:12.

The Real Madrid star feels they have a great chance

:24:13.:24:14.

How do you think Wales can do next summer in France? We're not going to

:24:15.:24:34.

make the numbers. We're going to do a serious job, to try to win the

:24:35.:24:37.

tournament, if you do not go to try to win, there's no point in going.

:24:38.:24:46.

You can hear more from Gareth on sport Wales this evening. And the

:24:47.:24:50.

Uefa 2016 final straw will be live from Paris on BBC Two, five 15 p.m.,

:24:51.:24:55.

you will get all the details on Wales today at our 6pm bulletin, and

:24:56.:25:02.

you can also follow the ceremony on radio Wales and online. Now the

:25:03.:25:03.

weather. It is a weekend of two halves.

:25:04.:25:12.

Saturday looks wet and windy, Sunday, we can look forward to

:25:13.:25:16.

something a bit more dry but it will remain cloudy. Tonight is fairly

:25:17.:25:21.

quiet at first, cold, frosty, but quickly we will start to seek out

:25:22.:25:24.

the king from the south-west and overnight we will see rain approach.

:25:25.:25:28.

That will bump into cold air and we will see snow on high ground across

:25:29.:25:33.

North Wales. Elsewhere, more likely to be rain. Temperatures between two

:25:34.:25:38.

and six Celsius. Not a nice start of Saturday morning, all down to this

:25:39.:25:42.

deep area of low pressure, bringing wet and windy conditions with it.

:25:43.:25:46.

There is a yellow warning in place for rain across parts of the country

:25:47.:25:52.

and anywhere north of terror and again where we could see localised

:25:53.:25:57.

flooding. Further the self not too many problems and milder air moving

:25:58.:26:00.

in, look at the difference in temperatures, between five and seven

:26:01.:26:03.

Celsius in the North, the team further south. It will be very

:26:04.:26:08.

blustery. Finally the rain band will clear and we can look forward to a

:26:09.:26:12.

quiet night, we hang onto cloud for the South, mist and fog likely.

:26:13.:26:18.

Further north, colder, clear skies, temperatures down at about one

:26:19.:26:21.

Celsius. The wind will be light until the early hours of Sunday

:26:22.:26:26.

morning. Then a brief ridge of high pressure, and a fairly quiet day.

:26:27.:26:30.

First thing on Sunday, patchy rain or drizzle, especially in the south,

:26:31.:26:34.

it was his alone way, and most of us can look forward to a dry Sunday,

:26:35.:26:38.

but it will be cloudy, very few bright spells coming from. The wind

:26:39.:26:42.

is light but by the afternoon they will pick up again. The temperatures

:26:43.:26:47.

range between five and nine Celsius. They we go to the start of next week

:26:48.:26:51.

where it is looking unsettled. Still we have got mild conditions with us.

:26:52.:26:54.

But we will see strong wind and there's more rain in the forecast.

:26:55.:26:58.

The main message tonight, tomorrow there is a yellow warning across

:26:59.:27:02.

parts of the country, the Northern counties. Take care.

:27:03.:27:07.

It is coming up to seven p.m., the headlines: a gang have been jailed

:27:08.:27:13.

for a total of more than 50 years for planning to supply millions of

:27:14.:27:17.

pounds worth of drugs to Wales. Gwent Police believe the

:27:18.:27:19.

multi-million pound hole is the largest they have ever made. And

:27:20.:27:24.

police investigating the discovery of humid remains so that they

:27:25.:27:31.

belonged to John Sabine, last seen in 1997, his wife, Leanne, is now

:27:32.:27:37.

the main suspect -- human remains. She did this sober. We'll have a

:27:38.:27:45.

quick update view at eight p.m.. That is Wales today. -- she did in
