A chance to make the final of Euro 2016. | :00:11. | :00:13. | |
Gareth Bale says he has no intention of leaving now with | :00:14. | :00:34. | |
And everybody understands where we are, what we have achieved. It is an | :00:35. | :00:48. | |
incredible journey we have been on, when we are very proud of but the | :00:49. | :00:51. | |
word is not done yet and we still want to go further. | :00:52. | :00:54. | |
People have caught football fever, from Machynlleth to Merthyr, | :00:55. | :00:58. | |
Hey, Wales, get ready to party your Hasselhoff. | :00:59. | :01:04. | |
Welsh families who lost loved ones in the Iraq War give their reaction | :01:05. | :01:13. | |
to the findings of the Chilcot Inquiry. | :01:14. | :01:16. | |
And one hundred years ago tonight, Welsh soldiers were preparing to go | :01:17. | :01:20. | |
For years in the footballing wilderness, Wales are now | :01:21. | :01:36. | |
Tonight, an estimated 130 million will be watching across the globe. | :01:37. | :01:42. | |
The lucky few who've got tickets have started to arrive, | :01:43. | :01:45. | |
hoping, dreaming, praying their side will overcome Portugal and once | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
Our first report tonight from Iwan Griffiths. | :01:50. | :02:02. | |
There is more than one football game going on in Lyon today. Some more | :02:03. | :02:13. | |
informal than others. All adding to the 2016 summer party for Welsh | :02:14. | :02:20. | |
fans. They have tasted success, that breeds confidence and they don't | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
want this to end. The players say they are not burdened by the growing | :02:25. | :02:29. | |
expectations. The beauty is, there is no pressure on our shoulders. No | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
matter what happens in the game or the rest of the tournament, it has | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
been a huge success for Welsh football. Seeing how much it means | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
for the whole nation, that is a huge driving force for us and motivates | :02:44. | :02:48. | |
us going into this match. More than half of Wales' population are | :02:49. | :02:52. | |
respected to watch the game this evening. Over 20,000 are in Lyon. | :02:53. | :02:57. | |
They have arrived, all eager to be part of a nation's moment in | :02:58. | :03:03. | |
history. And it will not be just the Welsh watching every moment. The | :03:04. | :03:09. | |
world is watching Wales. Journalists from all over the globe have | :03:10. | :03:12. | |
descended on this part of friends. If you had asked these people years | :03:13. | :03:15. | |
ago with Wales was, they would not know. One more win to get this to | :03:16. | :03:21. | |
the final and I think we can do it. Whatever happens this evening, | :03:22. | :03:25. | |
Wales' former manager Gary speed will not be far from the thoughts of | :03:26. | :03:30. | |
the fans and the squad. When we achieve something, we think about | :03:31. | :03:34. | |
him, were the words of Captain Ashley Williams. Gary speed died | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
five years ago, his father is preparing for an emotional night. He | :03:39. | :03:45. | |
would have been as proud. I am proud of the team. Very proud. He always | :03:46. | :03:52. | |
said, I always said, why are you taking the Welsh manager's job? He | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
said, because I am Welsh. He is up there watching. Watching his friend | :03:58. | :04:03. | |
Chris Coleman lead the Welsh side. It has been a difficult role but the | :04:04. | :04:08. | |
hard work has paid off. Coleman instrumental in getting the best out | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
of a special group of players. Once he put his stamp on the team, you | :04:13. | :04:16. | |
can see the way we have grown, the way we have come on, he has also | :04:17. | :04:21. | |
grown as a manager, he has understood us as players and | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
everything has gone in a very upward curve and we are all enjoying it, | :04:26. | :04:30. | |
all riding the wave and we are all learning of each other and long may | :04:31. | :04:35. | |
it continue. Music to the ears of the fans in red. They are preparing | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
for one last trip. A party in Paris on Sunday. Beat Portugal and they | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
have a place in the final. What a way to top of the journey that will | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
live for ever in the memory of those who have followed every step of this | :04:49. | :04:50. | |
remarkable adventure. Nobody has scored more goals | :04:51. | :04:52. | |
for Wales than Ian Rush and he's tipped the team | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
to make it to the final, even if it takes | :04:56. | :04:57. | |
extra time and penalties. Kate Morgan caught up | :04:58. | :04:59. | |
with him earlier. People said to me, where do | :05:00. | :05:01. | |
you think Wales can go? I genuinely believed we would get | :05:02. | :05:07. | |
out of the group stage. I thought them and England would get | :05:08. | :05:10. | |
out of the group stage Northern Ireland, they did really | :05:11. | :05:13. | |
well to qualify. People say we are one-man team | :05:14. | :05:19. | |
but you look at it now, they are doing their job, | :05:20. | :05:35. | |
but so are all the others. And you have got Joe Allen, most | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
probably in the first two games, We have actually got | :05:39. | :05:50. | |
something there. How do you harness that back home | :05:51. | :05:55. | |
to develop the game? People are standing up | :05:56. | :06:01. | |
and taking notice. Boys and girls are watching Wales | :06:02. | :06:03. | |
play on TV We want to carry on to | :06:04. | :06:07. | |
the World Cup now and that is With the players we have got | :06:08. | :06:13. | |
and the team spirit and especially the supporters, it has been | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
a long time coming and now How do you rate their | :06:19. | :06:20. | |
chances against Portugal? Over 90 minutes, Portugal | :06:21. | :06:26. | |
have not won a game They have something | :06:27. | :06:28. | |
but they are capable in the world, we have got | :06:29. | :06:33. | |
the most expensive player. When I look at it like that, | :06:34. | :06:41. | |
there is no reason why we can't I think it may take more than 90 | :06:42. | :06:44. | |
minutes but I am quite confident and I am hoping we can be | :06:45. | :06:52. | |
in Paris on the weekend. Around 20,000 fans have made | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
the journey to Lyon. Back home there are three million | :06:58. | :07:00. | |
people just as excited. Ben Price now on how the country | :07:01. | :07:04. | |
is getting behind the team. The dragon on my shirt. That is all | :07:05. | :07:21. | |
I need. As the nation prepares for what could be one of its greatest | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
ever sporting moments, Welsh footballing fever has taken over. | :07:26. | :07:32. | |
Without a doubt, it is the main story in Wales and it is making | :07:33. | :07:37. | |
headlines right across the UK. Today, almost everyone wants to be | :07:38. | :07:43. | |
Welsh. At Saint Josephs Cathedral School in Swansea, they are bursting | :07:44. | :07:49. | |
with pride. This is where Chris Coleman, the man who has | :07:50. | :07:52. | |
masterminded Welsh footballing success, grew up. Outside, the | :07:53. | :07:57. | |
school team is in training. Maybe there is a future player here and | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
earlier this week they got in touch with Chris Coleman. We sent an | :08:03. | :08:06. | |
e-mail on Monday morning. By mandated time we had received an | :08:07. | :08:09. | |
e-mail back from Chris Coleman with a message for the pupils at the | :08:10. | :08:12. | |
school. A big thank you for the kind | :08:13. | :08:17. | |
messages from everyone. I hope you are all enjoying this incredible | :08:18. | :08:20. | |
journey we are on in France. Please say hi to all the pupils. Together | :08:21. | :08:27. | |
stronger as we say. Kind regards, Chris Coleman. | :08:28. | :08:34. | |
For some, it has meant a last-minute scramble to the airport. Flights to | :08:35. | :08:41. | |
Lyon fully booked. We have been boat, train, plane, all sorts of | :08:42. | :08:46. | |
things so far. I went to every qualifier home and away and I missed | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
Friday night so I am glad to have the chance to go back out today. The | :08:51. | :08:56. | |
Assembly also seemed hard pushed to contain the excitement. At this | :08:57. | :08:59. | |
point I was tempted to leaders all in a rendition of Don't take me | :09:00. | :09:05. | |
home, please don't take me home, I just want to go to work. And in | :09:06. | :09:10. | |
Westminster, the Prime Minister took a moment to wish our boys good luck. | :09:11. | :09:14. | |
They have played superbly and we wish them all the best. In this | :09:15. | :09:20. | |
small village in North Wales, a giant football shirt has taken over. | :09:21. | :09:26. | |
In Cardiff, the Englishman who runs the capital's main shopping centre | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
is closing early at 7pm to allow 4000 staff to get home for kick-off. | :09:31. | :09:36. | |
And at this small shot in Swansea, there has been unprecedented demand | :09:37. | :09:40. | |
for flags. We have had to make things overnight. We are doing | :09:41. | :09:45. | |
everything we can to not disappoint. With just over an hour to go, a | :09:46. | :09:50. | |
nation prepares to dream and hopefully continue this party to the | :09:51. | :09:57. | |
final. Reports from the Portugal camp | :09:58. | :10:01. | |
tonight suggests Gareth Bale's Real Madrid team-mate Pepe is out of the | :10:02. | :10:05. | |
match. A blow for Portugal, good news for Wales. | :10:06. | :10:07. | |
Much more from Lyon to come later in the programme. | :10:08. | :10:09. | |
Senior Welsh politicians are calling tonight for the former | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
Labour Prime Minister Tony Blair to face prosecution | :10:15. | :10:17. | |
The Chilcot Inquiry into the war says the UK chose to join | :10:18. | :10:22. | |
the invasion of Iraq in 2003 "before the peaceful options for disarming | :10:23. | :10:25. | |
Paul Flynn, the Shadow Welsh Secretary, says prosecution | :10:26. | :10:29. | |
And the Plaid Cymru AM Adam Price, who once tried to impeach | :10:30. | :10:34. | |
Mr Blair, said Parliament should put him on trial. | :10:35. | :10:36. | |
Here's our parliamentary correspondent David Cornock. | :10:37. | :10:38. | |
14 young men from Wales who died serving their country in Iraq | :10:39. | :10:42. | |
after an invasion launched, according to the Chilcot Report, | :10:43. | :10:45. | |
We have concluded that the UK chose to join the invasion of Iraq before | :10:46. | :10:53. | |
the peaceful options for disarmament had been exhausted. | :10:54. | :10:58. | |
Military action that time was not a last resort. | :10:59. | :11:03. | |
Overall, more than 200 British citizens died. | :11:04. | :11:07. | |
The instability in the region led to 150,000 more deaths. | :11:08. | :11:13. | |
Among the dead, Lance Corporal Thomas Keys, | :11:14. | :11:16. | |
a military policeman from Llanuwchllyn near Bala, killed | :11:17. | :11:19. | |
His father stood for Parliament against Tony Blair and was among | :11:20. | :11:26. | |
the families who gathered today to read the report. | :11:27. | :11:30. | |
When I look at Iraq on my TV screen today, the 200 plus deaths that took | :11:31. | :11:35. | |
place the other day, I can only conclude that | :11:36. | :11:38. | |
unfortunately and sadly my son died in vain. | :11:39. | :11:41. | |
These young men and women were deployed on the basis | :11:42. | :11:45. | |
of a falsehood and now we have had the backing of Sir John. | :11:46. | :11:49. | |
Tony Blair said he took responsibility but insisted | :11:50. | :11:52. | |
the British servicemen had not died in vain. | :11:53. | :11:55. | |
Calls for him to face justice are growing, even among | :11:56. | :11:58. | |
I think there should be serious consideration to him | :11:59. | :12:04. | |
It was not clear there should be a case for war. | :12:05. | :12:10. | |
Ten years ago, Plaid Cymru's Adam Price tried to impeach Tony Blair, | :12:11. | :12:13. | |
He said today's MPs should try again. | :12:14. | :12:18. | |
It is only Parliament, which is the highest court | :12:19. | :12:21. | |
They must do it because actually they were guilty in terms | :12:22. | :12:28. | |
At the time, most MPs supported the invasion. | :12:29. | :12:34. | |
Among them, Ann Clwyd, Tony Blair's special envoy | :12:35. | :12:36. | |
We did it on the basis of the knowledge we had. | :12:37. | :12:42. | |
Iraq was in breach of 17 UN resolutions in 2003. | :12:43. | :12:50. | |
Saddam Hussein in 1998 had already killed half | :12:51. | :12:55. | |
Today's Prime Minister agreed MPs then were acting | :12:56. | :13:01. | |
We have to be frank, those of us who voted for this, | :13:02. | :13:06. | |
that the consequences of what followed have | :13:07. | :13:09. | |
Most people may have made up their minds about the Iraq War | :13:10. | :13:15. | |
a long time ago but the strength of criticism in today's report makes | :13:16. | :13:20. | |
it more likely that Tony Blair's opponents will now seek new ways | :13:21. | :13:23. | |
to make him accountable for a conflict that became | :13:24. | :13:27. | |
Among the 14 Welsh servicemen to die in Iraq was Peter McFerran | :13:28. | :13:37. | |
from Flintshire, who was killed in a mortar attack in 2007. | :13:38. | :13:42. | |
His parents were in London today to hear the report's findings. | :13:43. | :13:45. | |
They've been speaking to Matt Richards. | :13:46. | :13:49. | |
From Gwynedd to Neath, the Vale of Glamorgan to Powys. | :13:50. | :13:53. | |
14 families across Wales received the worst possible news | :13:54. | :13:56. | |
Bob and Ann McFerran from Connah's Quay hadn't | :13:57. | :14:01. | |
expected their son Peter to survive more than a few days | :14:02. | :14:04. | |
Born prematurely, he overcame the odds, and they're | :14:05. | :14:08. | |
still fundraising to say thank you to the hospital that saved him. | :14:09. | :14:12. | |
But Peter was killed on his second tour of Iraq with the RAF regiment. | :14:13. | :14:15. | |
The first time he went out, I was not too concerned. | :14:16. | :14:19. | |
There was not a lot going on then really. | :14:20. | :14:22. | |
He came back and said, "I heard a pop. | :14:23. | :14:27. | |
The next time he went out, it was far different. | :14:28. | :14:39. | |
The 24-year-old senior aircraftsman died in July 2007 when a mortar | :14:40. | :14:42. | |
He saved the life of a colleague by laying on top of him. | :14:43. | :14:47. | |
His father gave evidence to the Chilcot Inquiry and says | :14:48. | :14:50. | |
Tony Blair should be held to account for taking the country to war. | :14:51. | :14:53. | |
I think he should be tried for war crimes, definitely. | :14:54. | :14:57. | |
If I knew the system of how to do a citizen's arrest | :14:58. | :15:01. | |
and I was close to him I might do it. | :15:02. | :15:04. | |
As the Iraq Inquiry was finally published, the relatives | :15:05. | :15:08. | |
of many of the Welsh military personnel who died were in London | :15:09. | :15:10. | |
We first met Sir John Chilcot in 2009 and we have been waiting | :15:11. | :15:16. | |
since then but we were not sure what was coming out until he read | :15:17. | :15:20. | |
We expected it to be a complete whitewash but it wasn't. | :15:21. | :15:25. | |
Regardless of the report's conclusions, it won't bring | :15:26. | :15:29. | |
back the sons, fathers, brothers, partners | :15:30. | :15:33. | |
But Peter McFerran is still a constant presence | :15:34. | :15:38. | |
People think I'm crazy because I do talk to him. | :15:39. | :15:44. | |
Sometimes I look at his picture and talk to him. | :15:45. | :15:47. | |
I just have that feeling, it is just a feeling, | :15:48. | :15:50. | |
that he is by my side and he is company. | :15:51. | :15:56. | |
A court has heard that a man on trial for causing death | :15:57. | :16:02. | |
by dangerous driving was making a last-gasp manoeuvre to avoid | :16:03. | :16:05. | |
33-year-old Simon Lewis and his unborn son died | :16:06. | :16:11. | |
on New Year's Eve after Kyle Kennedy crashed into their car | :16:12. | :16:14. | |
The judge is expected to start summing up tomorrow. | :16:15. | :16:21. | |
A hundred years ago tonight, Welsh soldiers were preparing to go | :16:22. | :16:25. | |
The 38 Division, made up of soldiers from across Wales, | :16:26. | :16:30. | |
were told to assault a German strongpoint. | :16:31. | :16:32. | |
Tomorrow, the centenary will be marked at a ceremony | :16:33. | :16:34. | |
there, with tributes from the First Minister | :16:35. | :16:37. | |
and the Archbishop of Wales among others. | :16:38. | :16:40. | |
Roger Pinney has the story of the men of the 38 Division. | :16:41. | :16:44. | |
The beauty of this little valley today belies the horror | :16:45. | :16:47. | |
In the woods you will find reminders of it. | :16:48. | :16:51. | |
Little acts of remembrance from Wales to those who were lost. | :16:52. | :16:56. | |
Around a mile square, a week into the battle of the Somme, | :16:57. | :16:59. | |
it fell to the men of Wales to take what had become a key objective. | :17:00. | :17:04. | |
On the morning of July the 7th, the advance would have come out | :17:05. | :17:08. | |
of cover over that rise and down here. | :17:09. | :17:11. | |
Because of its shape, that part of Mametz Wood in front | :17:12. | :17:14. | |
The Welsh emerged into murderous cross-fire. | :17:15. | :17:24. | |
Few got any further than with this road is now. | :17:25. | :17:28. | |
It was the end of the second year of war. | :17:29. | :17:30. | |
The old regular army was all but gone. | :17:31. | :17:35. | |
In its place a new army of volunteers. | :17:36. | :17:37. | |
And at Mametz the men who lined up were from the new Welsh Division | :17:38. | :17:40. | |
Colliers, dockers, ironworkers, farmhands. | :17:41. | :17:46. | |
The boys from next-door from all corners of Wales. | :17:47. | :17:50. | |
Fought together and so often died together. | :17:51. | :18:01. | |
Among them Sgt Fred Rowlands, a miner from | :18:02. | :18:04. | |
I met his great-granddaughter Louvain Rees at the home he left | :18:05. | :18:09. | |
in Victoria Street to join the Cardiff City Battalion. | :18:10. | :18:14. | |
The home, the wife, baby daughter he was never to see again. | :18:15. | :18:22. | |
It is sad to think that she would have been, my | :18:23. | :18:30. | |
great-great-grandmother would have been on her own there, waiting to | :18:31. | :18:33. | |
hear from her husband. He never came back. They were married in 1913 so | :18:34. | :18:40. | |
they were not actually married long before he went away. | :18:41. | :18:42. | |
Three times they attacked that first day. | :18:43. | :18:44. | |
This is his so-called Dead Man's Penny - | :18:45. | :18:49. | |
a gift from the Government to his family. | :18:50. | :18:51. | |
At the end of five days of fighting at Mametz Wood, | :18:52. | :18:54. | |
more than a thousand of the Welsh Division | :18:55. | :18:56. | |
From the War diary, the extracts that we have, it is an awful day. It | :18:57. | :19:15. | |
was raining, so many people died. It was not just him, hundreds of | :19:16. | :19:19. | |
families torn apart by that one day. What you will find when you look at | :19:20. | :19:23. | |
the names on memorials is a striking similarity of names. You will see | :19:24. | :19:30. | |
brothers, you will see fathers and sons in some places and you will | :19:31. | :19:34. | |
certainly see cousins. It is those names together that readers strike | :19:35. | :19:35. | |
at you. The wounds ran deep | :19:36. | :19:37. | |
in communities across Wales. Sgt Fred Rowlands is buried | :19:38. | :19:39. | |
in Flat Iron Copse cemetary, The land in front of Mametz Wood | :19:40. | :19:42. | |
became known as Death Valley. A permanent reminder | :19:43. | :19:46. | |
of so much sacrifice. We'll have much more | :19:47. | :19:53. | |
on the remembrance service at Mametz Wood tomorrow and you can | :19:54. | :19:57. | |
find out more about the battle Back to the football now, | :19:58. | :20:00. | |
and there's little more than an hour to go until kick-off | :20:01. | :20:13. | |
and the fanzones here In a moment, we'll join Nicola Smith | :20:14. | :20:16. | |
at the Principality Stadium, This is the fan zone in Lyon. It can | :20:17. | :20:37. | |
hold up to 20,000 fans. I'm sure it will be full later. It is slowly | :20:38. | :20:43. | |
filling up with a mix of Welsh and Portuguese fans. On the streets, the | :20:44. | :20:47. | |
Welsh fans outnumber the Portuguese. They got here by any means. Flying | :20:48. | :20:53. | |
anywhere, driving everywhere. I have got three fans with me now. You had | :20:54. | :20:59. | |
a long drive this morning. Has it been worth it? Definitely. This game | :21:00. | :21:04. | |
has been 58 years in the making. Why did you want to be here? Pride for | :21:05. | :21:09. | |
the country. It is something else, isn't it? It is a once-in-a-lifetime | :21:10. | :21:16. | |
opportunity for us. Like most fans you have been a last-minute planning | :21:17. | :21:21. | |
trip. You have not found anywhere to stay this evening. No, it was a spur | :21:22. | :21:27. | |
of the moment thing so we are just basically got in the car and came | :21:28. | :21:30. | |
straight down. We have got no accommodation. If Wales lose, it | :21:31. | :21:36. | |
might be quite a sombre night. It will be a long journey home. Who do | :21:37. | :21:41. | |
you think is going to win? Definitely Wales. Wales. All the | :21:42. | :21:49. | |
way. Lots of confident Wales fans here tonight. Today, you have been | :21:50. | :21:55. | |
able to get tickets for the stadium and the match tonight. What would | :21:56. | :22:05. | |
cost 495 is down to 250. I know another fan zone that will be very | :22:06. | :22:13. | |
busy tonight and that is in Cardiff. Thank you. It is already filling up | :22:14. | :22:18. | |
here tonight. The gates opened around 20 minutes ago and they are | :22:19. | :22:23. | |
expecting around 27,500 people to fill those two tears. All to watch | :22:24. | :22:28. | |
the match on this big screen. All 100 feet of it. It is her specially | :22:29. | :22:34. | |
for this historic occasion and I am told it is one of the biggest in | :22:35. | :22:38. | |
Britain. We think of this as the home of Welsh Rugby Union and I am | :22:39. | :22:42. | |
standing alongside a speedway track because the World Championships are | :22:43. | :22:46. | |
here this weekend. But tonight, football is very much taking centre | :22:47. | :22:52. | |
stage. Let's talk to Carolyn, who is very much a Welsh football fan. | :22:53. | :22:56. | |
Wales' performance has galvanised a nation. It has impressed the world. | :22:57. | :23:02. | |
Football is the only global sport and the success of this team, there | :23:03. | :23:06. | |
incredible journey, has impressed people across the globe. That is PR | :23:07. | :23:12. | |
money can't buy. Billions of people now know where the great country of | :23:13. | :23:16. | |
Wales 's. The fans tonight will be looking for a win but it is not | :23:17. | :23:20. | |
really matter what the Wales team does, does it? They have already set | :23:21. | :23:24. | |
up their legacy. Something has happened in this tournament that | :23:25. | :23:29. | |
goes way beyond the field of play. The character, the spirit, the pride | :23:30. | :23:33. | |
they take in a national identity and culture, it is a lesson for us all. | :23:34. | :23:38. | |
That motto, Together Stronger, it is a lesson for us all. Predictions? | :23:39. | :23:45. | |
How are you feeling? I predicted before this tour and began that | :23:46. | :23:48. | |
Wales had the talent to go all the way and I am sticking with that. | :23:49. | :23:52. | |
Enjoy the game. Fingers crossed. It'll be dry for fans here tonight | :23:53. | :23:55. | |
because the roof is closed, It is a very warm evening in Lyon | :23:56. | :24:15. | |
tonight. Wall-to-wall sunshine. But in Wales it is a cloudy picture and | :24:16. | :24:19. | |
it is feeling warm as we head into tomorrow as well. Tonight we have | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
quite a bit of cloud around, limited brightness, a little bit of rain | :24:24. | :24:27. | |
coming into parts of North Wales as we go through the night. I think the | :24:28. | :24:32. | |
bulk of the country will be dry with those temperatures ranging between | :24:33. | :24:39. | |
12 and 15 Celsius. We do have this waving weather front which is going | :24:40. | :24:42. | |
to bring some patchy rain with it tomorrow. It will push south and | :24:43. | :24:46. | |
eastwards and back up again into the early hours of Friday morning. | :24:47. | :24:49. | |
Tomorrow morning, a dry start for the bulk of the country. A little | :24:50. | :24:55. | |
bit of rain across the North. But it will brighten up for parts of the | :24:56. | :24:59. | |
north-east. The rest of the country cloudy with some patchy rain. | :25:00. | :25:05. | |
Temperatures getting up to around 19 Celsius. Tomorrow night, that rain | :25:06. | :25:08. | |
will push southwards but gradually pushed back up again into the early | :25:09. | :25:13. | |
hours of Friday morning. We will see quite a bit of low-level cloud, mist | :25:14. | :25:17. | |
and fog and a muggy night again tomorrow. As we head towards the end | :25:18. | :25:24. | |
of the week, that front will clear and behind it, slowly but surely, | :25:25. | :25:28. | |
the next weather system will start to push on from the West and that | :25:29. | :25:32. | |
will bring a lot more cloud with it. First thing on Friday morning, we do | :25:33. | :25:36. | |
have quite a bit of cloud around, patchy rain across the South, that | :25:37. | :25:39. | |
will clear on that front will start to pushing again. Those Debbie | :25:40. | :25:45. | |
jurors will range between 18 and 20 Celsius. -- those temperatures. Over | :25:46. | :25:55. | |
the next few days, cloudy and damp, limited brightness, feeling warm but | :25:56. | :25:57. | |
do enjoy the match tonight. Let's head back to Lyon now, | :25:58. | :26:00. | |
where excitement and nerves One hour to go now before the | :26:01. | :26:12. | |
biggest 90 minutes of the players lives. But whatever happens here | :26:13. | :26:16. | |
tonight, they will return he rose. The fans have criss-crossed | :26:17. | :26:23. | |
the country, from Lille to Lens, Will their journey end in Paris | :26:24. | :26:25. | |
and the final of Euro 2016? After the last few weeks, | :26:26. | :26:29. | |
anything is possible. | :26:30. | :26:32. |
