Welcome to BBC Channel Islands on Wednesday 01 March. | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
Making the news tonight: Hang up - drivers who repeatedly | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
use their mobiles are warned they could be banned | :00:12. | :00:13. | |
from the roads as the police toughen up their stance. | :00:14. | :00:22. | |
We've seen an increase of a fifth in the last year. We're right there are | :00:23. | :00:25. | |
a lot more and it has become more Cuts continue, but as Guernsey | :00:26. | :00:31. | |
records a budget surplus should Cuts continue, but as become | :00:32. | :00:33. | |
more Guernsey records the island stick to its guns | :00:34. | :00:41. | |
or consider cutting the cuts? Reviewing rental laws - | :00:42. | :00:46. | |
tenants could face fewer charges as concerns are raised | :00:47. | :00:48. | |
about the cost of renting homes. And we are in for a very windy night | :00:49. | :00:55. | |
over the islands. Mainly dry. Wet weather towards the end of the week. | :00:56. | :00:57. | |
The details coming up later. 444 drivers were prosecuted | :00:58. | :01:03. | |
for using mobile phones That is the highest number | :01:04. | :01:06. | |
for the last four years. Jersey Police have launched | :01:07. | :01:14. | |
a new campaign to crack down on the offence, | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
on the same day that the UK has So with figures increasing | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
in the Channel Islands, More and more drivers in Jersey | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
are illegally using mobile Even within half an hour of filming | :01:25. | :01:32. | |
police road checks today to mark the launch of their new campaign, | :01:33. | :01:39. | |
five drivers were caught But it is not just police presence | :01:40. | :01:42. | |
contributing to last year's record of the highest number | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
of prosecutions since 2012. We've seen an increase | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
of about a fifth over the last year and that really is of course | :01:51. | :01:53. | |
we are out there a lot more, it's become a lot more | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
socially unacceptable. We get lots of people phoning us | :01:57. | :01:58. | |
and say they've just seen someone on a mobile phone | :01:59. | :02:02. | |
and they are really angry about it. People know now how dangerous it can | :02:03. | :02:05. | |
be and we've seen the tragic results Not only is it dangerous, | :02:06. | :02:08. | |
but it is also costly, with drivers facing | :02:09. | :02:20. | |
a fine up to ?1,000. However most of those caught | :02:21. | :02:27. | |
in 2016 paid ?100 or less. Road safety campaigners say | :02:28. | :02:29. | |
fines need to be more. The current penalties don't go | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
far enough, do they, and obviously if your figures | :02:35. | :02:36. | |
are showing there is an increase they blatantly aren't working | :02:37. | :02:39. | |
what we need is a real strong deterrent and ?75, ?100 isn't | :02:40. | :02:41. | |
enough to deter somebody If we're going to really cut this | :02:42. | :02:44. | |
down, we need to hit people where it hurts the most and that seems to be | :02:45. | :02:48. | |
in the pocket. But some drivers in Jersey believe | :02:49. | :02:51. | |
punishment needs to go further. A driving ban should be introduced | :02:52. | :02:57. | |
because it would be equal punishment for all types of people, whether | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
they have money or not. I think it would stop people from going on | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
their phones. People will just pay the fine. If you lose your license, | :03:08. | :03:14. | |
it's a bigger things. There is never any justification for using a mobile | :03:15. | :03:18. | |
phone while driving. Now call is that important. People have got used | :03:19. | :03:28. | |
to it. Something needs to be put in place to get it out of the psyche | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
that it is acceptable to use the mobile phone. | :03:33. | :03:34. | |
The department responsible for Jersey's roads is working | :03:35. | :03:36. | |
on a new penalty points system to be in place in the next | :03:37. | :03:39. | |
But will it be enough to stop drivers taking the law | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
A man has appeared at Jersey's Royal Court, | :03:43. | :03:49. | |
accused of the attempted murder of his friend. | :03:50. | :03:51. | |
The court heard Gerard Eamon Maguire stabbed Shaun Patrick Howard | :03:52. | :03:54. | |
in the neck with a knife after a drunken | :03:55. | :03:56. | |
The family of a Jerseyman, who was killed with another British | :03:57. | :04:06. | |
tourist in Thailand have asked the authorities there to show | :04:07. | :04:08. | |
leniency towards two Burmese men facing the death penalty | :04:09. | :04:11. | |
Jersey's David Miller and Hannah Witheridge from Norfolk | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
were found dead on a Thai beach in 2014. | :04:15. | :04:16. | |
An appeal court in Thailand has upheld the death | :04:17. | :04:18. | |
In a statement, the Miller family said the court process had been fair | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
and effective and the killers' guilt has now been confirmed. | :04:23. | :04:32. | |
The chief executive of the States of Alderney has resigned, | :04:33. | :04:34. | |
Victor Brownlees has served in the role since 2014 | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
and will leave in May, which is in line with his contract. | :04:39. | :04:46. | |
There are calls to reconsider planned cuts to public | :04:47. | :04:48. | |
The Policy and Resources Committee intends to trim 3% from public | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
spending this year followed by 5% for the two years after. | :04:53. | :04:54. | |
But there is a warning to islanders not to get carried away | :04:55. | :04:57. | |
with a recent return to a budget surplus. | :04:58. | :04:59. | |
Guernsey is trying to trim public spending. | :05:00. | :05:10. | |
It is slashing 3% off committee budgets this year. | :05:11. | :05:14. | |
And this man plans to cut another 5% in 2018 and a further | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
It could save the government ?26 million over the next three years. | :05:18. | :05:24. | |
But some deputies are warning the cuts may be hard to achieve. | :05:25. | :05:35. | |
Two thirds of the revenue goes on education, health care and law and | :05:36. | :05:42. | |
order. The idea that cuts of this magnitude can be achieved by | :05:43. | :05:45. | |
bureaucratic savings or administrative savings that no one | :05:46. | :05:50. | |
will notice, I think is fantasy. The states have to get into the core of | :05:51. | :05:55. | |
whether we are prepared to cut public services or whether we want | :05:56. | :05:59. | |
to defend public services and then we will have to raise more revenue. | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
But a Guernsey tax adviser is urging the States to stick with substantial | :06:04. | :06:06. | |
spending cuts over the rest of this political term. | :06:07. | :06:10. | |
Since the turn-of-the-century, the island has increased its income by | :06:11. | :06:21. | |
50% and increased its expenditure by 83%. We have gone through uncertain | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
times and there is more coming. This is the wrong time to send out the | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
wrong message which is that we are fine and wet get back to spending. | :06:30. | :06:37. | |
Everyone in the Ireland knows that we spend more than we should. | :06:38. | :06:40. | |
The man controlling Guernsey's purse strings wasn't available | :06:41. | :06:42. | |
for interview today but said in a statement: "The 5% | :06:43. | :06:44. | |
reductions are collective aims for the States as a whole, | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
and have not been levied on any committee at this stage. | :06:48. | :06:49. | |
The Policy and Resources Committee has no reason | :06:50. | :06:51. | |
However, work is now being carried out to consider the extent of any | :06:52. | :06:55. | |
underlying improvement and what that may mean for the 2017 | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
The island's politicians will face a fundamental debate in June, | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
when they will decide how best to tackle future shortfalls | :07:04. | :07:06. | |
You're watching the BBC in the Channel Islands. | :07:07. | :07:15. | |
Later in Spotlight with Justin and Victoria: After 90 years, | :07:16. | :07:18. | |
the end of an era for this family run post office. | :07:19. | :07:26. | |
Jersey's housing minister says she will do whatever needs to be | :07:27. | :07:29. | |
done to make sure letting agencies in the island are fair | :07:30. | :07:31. | |
Deputy Pryke has launched a review into their practices and may follow | :07:32. | :07:35. | |
England in banning agencies from charging tenants fees. | :07:36. | :07:37. | |
Moving house can be an expensive business. | :07:38. | :07:47. | |
There is rent to pay, bills to cover, and in Jersey - | :07:48. | :07:51. | |
for some properties ? there is also the fee you have to give | :07:52. | :07:54. | |
I understand they need to make a profit. I think if the challenged | :07:55. | :08:06. | |
the landlord instead of the person renting, that would solve the issue. | :08:07. | :08:11. | |
Moving is expensive enough as it is. I don't think they're doing much for | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
that money. I think it is fair play. I've never looked at it and thought | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
it was unfair the. But at Gaudin and Company, | :08:22. | :08:24. | |
they believe it is the landlords It is the landlord's property. They | :08:25. | :08:35. | |
can afford to pay the fee for us to do the work for them. I think that | :08:36. | :08:38. | |
is the way it should go. This letting agency may not charge | :08:39. | :08:41. | |
the so-called introduction fee but there are several | :08:42. | :08:43. | |
across the island that do. The fee is usually the equivalent | :08:44. | :08:45. | |
of one week's rent and is taken by the agency once | :08:46. | :08:48. | |
you accept their priority. That's on top of the deposit | :08:49. | :08:50. | |
and the first month's rent up front. So the Housing Minister now wants | :08:51. | :08:53. | |
to hear from the public She says she will consider banning | :08:54. | :08:56. | |
tenancy fees altogether. Letting agencies are our business so | :08:57. | :09:08. | |
they need to make some money. But some people I understand have been | :09:09. | :09:13. | |
charging the landlord as opposed to the tenant for doing the same thing. | :09:14. | :09:15. | |
And that's wrong. Anyone wanting to contribute to the | :09:16. | :09:18. | |
review has until the end of April. Spring is in the air somewhere | :09:19. | :09:21. | |
and it means we now know that Jersey had its driest winter for 20 years | :09:22. | :09:26. | |
and while one of the sunniest on record February was | :09:27. | :09:29. | |
the dullest for a decade. David Braine joins us | :09:30. | :09:31. | |
now for the forecast. Now are you going to | :09:32. | :09:33. | |
bring us sunshine? Well, I will try. It's not looking | :09:34. | :09:46. | |
too hopeful. Tomorrow is the best day for sunshine. More cloud around | :09:47. | :09:51. | |
on Friday. The weekend is a mixture of sunshine and showers. Tomorrow is | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
the best day of the week. Writer and mainly dry. The winds will ease. The | :09:56. | :10:01. | |
winds are a feature of the weather overnight tonight. Blustery westerly | :10:02. | :10:05. | |
wind has developed and continues to develop this evening across much of | :10:06. | :10:17. | |
western Britain, the West of France. By the middle of the day, the strong | :10:18. | :10:20. | |
winds have gone. We have a ridge of high pressure to bring us some | :10:21. | :10:24. | |
sunshine. Saturday and Sunday, looks like it will be showery. Some quite | :10:25. | :10:29. | |
frequent showers through both days through the weekend ahead. The | :10:30. | :10:33. | |
strength of wind is a concern this evening. Gust of wind up to 50 or 55 | :10:34. | :10:39. | |
mph for a short while this evening. The winds begin to ease. Blustery | :10:40. | :10:46. | |
evening and a blustery start to the night. Largely dry. A few showers | :10:47. | :10:51. | |
around and temperatures of 6 degrees. Not a warm start to the | :10:52. | :10:56. | |
day. Apart from a few stray showers, there is some dry weather to be had. | :10:57. | :11:02. | |
Feeling warmer with ten or 11 degrees the highest temperature. | :11:03. | :11:13. | |
Here are the times of high water. The coastal waters forecast. Let's | :11:14. | :11:23. | |
see if we can find you some sunshine. Not much around on Friday. | :11:24. | :11:31. | |
Cloudy. Southerly winds giving some pretty good temperatures. Saturday | :11:32. | :11:36. | |
and Sunday, both days, a good chance to see some sunshine but | :11:37. | :11:42. | |
short-lived. Brisk south-west winds on both days. Ten is the maximum. | :11:43. | :11:48. | |
Parents across the Channel Islands are most probably panicking | :11:49. | :11:50. | |
and making costumes ahead of World Book Day tomorrow. | :11:51. | :11:52. | |
Don't forget to send us your pictures either on Facebook, | :11:53. | :11:55. | |
Twitter or by email - to [email protected] and we'll try | :11:56. | :11:57. | |
and show a selection on tomorrow night s programme. | :11:58. | :12:01. | |
You're up to date with the latest news for the Channel Islands. | :12:02. | :12:04. | |
I'll be back with your headlines at 8pm. | :12:05. | :12:06. | |
but today a Cornish post office sold its last stamp | :12:07. | :12:33. | |
It's been a stalwart of the community, but Paynters Lane | :12:34. | :12:37. | |
End Post Office in Illogan closed at lunchtime. | :12:38. | :12:39. | |
It'll be replaced by a new counter service in a local shop, | :12:40. | :12:41. | |
part of a major modernisation programme by the Post Office. | :12:42. | :12:50. | |
Selling stamps for the last time before shutting up shop after nearly | :12:51. | :12:56. | |
But, of course, like every other day, could post | :12:57. | :13:07. | |
But, of course, like every other day, the post | :13:08. | :13:10. | |
Three generations of the same family had served the Illogan | :13:11. | :13:13. | |
It was started by Grandpa, William and Annie, in 1928, | :13:14. | :13:21. | |
In is a pasty shop now but it was a butcher and a post | :13:22. | :13:32. | |
office, and they ran it for 22 years, I think. | :13:33. | :13:34. | |
And then my father-in-law, Douglas, took it over in 1953, | :13:35. | :13:37. | |
but he moved here in 1955, and this building was personally | :13:38. | :13:39. | |
Some loyal customers have been using the Paynters Lane End Post Office | :13:40. | :13:49. | |
I've been coming over here 58 years and I will miss it. | :13:50. | :14:07. | |
They are very upset, naturally, and I will miss them | :14:08. | :14:19. | |
And emotional end to the data in Cornwall. | :14:20. | :14:39. | |
Now, no doubt you enjoyed a few pancakes last night before any Lent | :14:40. | :14:43. | |
ambitions to lay off the chocolate or resist a glass of wine. | :14:44. | :14:45. | |
But what about giving up the comfort of your own bed and sleeping rough | :14:46. | :14:49. | |
Well, that's exactly what former prison governor turned vicar | :14:50. | :14:53. | |
He wants to raise awareness about the growing problem of homelessness. | :14:54. | :14:57. | |
Spotlight's Andrea Ormsby's been to meet him, and his dog. | :14:58. | :15:00. | |
Ash Wednesday, a day of symbolism in the Christian church. | :15:01. | :15:03. | |
From dust you came, to dust you shall return. | :15:04. | :15:06. | |
The sign of the cross in ash on the foreheads of the faithful. | :15:07. | :15:13. | |
It marks the start of Lent, when many fast from food or drink. | :15:14. | :15:18. | |
But for the vicar of St George's in Goodrington, it's the comfort | :15:19. | :15:21. | |
I've got a lot of concerns actually, yes. | :15:22. | :15:28. | |
Last night I thought I would have the best night sleep | :15:29. | :15:31. | |
ever in my own bed and it all went wrong and I was up at 5:30am. | :15:32. | :15:35. | |
I guess I am quite worried about it actually. | :15:36. | :15:37. | |
It seemed like a good idea at the time but I'm not totally | :15:38. | :15:40. | |
Father Gary and his dog Tess will spend the full 40 nights | :15:41. | :15:44. | |
of Lent sleeping rough to raise awareness of the growing | :15:45. | :15:47. | |
Some people might say to this is a nice thing to do but wouldn't | :15:48. | :15:53. | |
it be better to open the doors of your church and let | :15:54. | :15:56. | |
They might say that, yes, but I don't think it is a nice | :15:57. | :16:00. | |
We have opened the door of the church and we open them | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
The difficulty with that as it is OK to provide somebody with a roof | :16:06. | :16:09. | |
over their head for a short term but actually what you need to do | :16:10. | :16:13. | |
is engage with people so that they don't have to sleep | :16:14. | :16:15. | |
on the streets, so they have the skills that they need | :16:16. | :16:18. | |
to be able to get a job, to be had to get into work, | :16:19. | :16:21. | |
to be able to get a job, to be able to get into work, | :16:22. | :16:25. | |
to get proper housing, not just some temporary | :16:26. | :16:27. | |
accommodation in a church or somewhere else. | :16:28. | :16:28. | |
He's bringing a sort of new dimension to it. | :16:29. | :16:31. | |
People are obviously very keen to get involved and to hear | :16:32. | :16:34. | |
It is such a huge sacrifice that he is making to bring that | :16:35. | :16:38. | |
That's a long time to go out and do something like that. | :16:39. | :16:43. | |
He's reaching to the people who are not of the community. | :16:44. | :16:45. | |
I think it is absolutely wonderful and I think it's a great sacrifice | :16:46. | :16:51. | |
that he is making for this time and at the same time | :16:52. | :16:53. | |
it shows his concern for what is around us, | :16:54. | :16:56. | |
which is homeless people and people with mental problems | :16:57. | :16:59. | |
Before being ordained he'd been the governor of Pentonville Prison | :17:00. | :17:06. | |
and Exeter Prison and says many of those released | :17:07. | :17:08. | |
Now Father Gary hopes his six weeks sleeping rough will help raise money | :17:09. | :17:13. | |
And do wish and his lovely dog all the best. We will check on the | :17:14. | :17:30. | |
weather forecast for them in just a moment. | :17:31. | :17:30. | |
And we're hoping to keep in touch with Reverend Deighton during Lent | :17:31. | :17:33. | |
From that thought-provoking mission to a young chap. | :17:34. | :17:43. | |
Pupils at a school in Devon have taken part in a walk to raise | :17:44. | :17:46. | |
awareness of a debilitating condition which affects one | :17:47. | :17:48. | |
Seven-year-old Lucas Trice has hip dysplasia which occurs when the hip | :17:49. | :17:52. | |
Spotlight's John Danks joined the kids on their walk. | :17:53. | :17:57. | |
They called it the Warrior Walk, appropriate enough | :17:58. | :18:00. | |
considering the conditions they had to brave. | :18:01. | :18:02. | |
Throughout the day all of the pupils at Stover School | :18:03. | :18:05. | |
near Newton Abbot put down their pens to plod a mile. | :18:06. | :18:08. | |
And it was all for seven-year-old Lucas. | :18:09. | :18:14. | |
Myself and Lucas was diagnosed with hip dysplasia when he was four | :18:15. | :18:20. | |
months old and we set up a small charity which over the last 12 | :18:21. | :18:25. | |
months has simply snowballed and the school have very kindly got on board | :18:26. | :18:32. | |
and organised an entire day and we hope that this is just the beginning | :18:33. | :18:36. | |
of putting hip displacing on the map for patients -- parents. | :18:37. | :18:38. | |
Joining them on the walk was a former Paralympic | :18:39. | :18:40. | |
swimmer who competed in the London 2012 Games. | :18:41. | :18:44. | |
I was diagnosed at four years old and underwent all the treatments | :18:45. | :18:50. | |
that Lucas went through and I have developed a swimming career and I | :18:51. | :18:54. | |
joined the charity because like Natalie, my parents didn't have the | :18:55. | :18:58. | |
support they wanted, so I am doing a party for them and partly for myself | :18:59. | :19:02. | |
to encourage parents to seek support and help when they need it. | :19:03. | :19:04. | |
Despite the rain and the mud, Lucas made it to the finish line. | :19:05. | :19:09. | |
Look at the smiles on everyone's face, including mine. My focus was | :19:10. | :19:15. | |
just standing on my feet but everyone has enjoyed it. It has been | :19:16. | :19:19. | |
a thoroughly successful day. It was fun because we all got to Walker's | :19:20. | :19:23. | |
work so we could all have a bit of chitchat. Really good and kind of | :19:24. | :19:28. | |
inspiring. OK, it was quite muddy in the forest. | :19:29. | :19:29. | |
While for some it was a day at the races, others preferred a more | :19:30. | :19:33. | |
The National League has confirmed that control | :19:34. | :19:44. | |
of Torquay United Football Club has been transferred to | :19:45. | :19:47. | |
The takeover ends months of speculation about | :19:48. | :19:52. | |
the future of the Gulls, who were facing | :19:53. | :19:54. | |
The deal was agreed before Christmas but the club only received official | :19:55. | :19:58. | |
confirmation this week. A Devon football team is celebrating | :19:59. | :20:03. | |
after winning an amazing On top of that, SAS girls under-12's | :20:04. | :20:05. | |
from Barnstaple have only been But their amazing winning streak has | :20:06. | :20:13. | |
led to an invitation to play their equivalent side | :20:14. | :20:17. | |
at Premiership club Chelsea. Kirk England has been | :20:18. | :20:19. | |
to see them in action. Tournaments, friendlies, | :20:20. | :20:37. | |
competitions. Whenever they play, they win. Great football! SAS girls | :20:38. | :20:44. | |
under 12 is from Barnstable on a massive winning streak. We are | :20:45. | :20:49. | |
working together. We shoot and we score. 48 games unbeaten, it is | :20:50. | :20:57. | |
great to see SAS going on a winning another one. We just go for winter | :20:58. | :21:02. | |
wind, we won the first game and we progressed from there and we were | :21:03. | :21:05. | |
getting games like 1- 012- zero and we have had gone onto to really | :21:06. | :21:11. | |
excel and have things like 6-0. We have had some close games but we | :21:12. | :21:19. | |
always find a way to win. This time it was 8- nail. She plays five or | :21:20. | :21:23. | |
six times a week and she doesn't stop. She lives and breathes in its | :21:24. | :21:28. | |
football. It is all she wants to do. Tanabe 49 games unbeaten is just | :21:29. | :21:33. | |
something that will go with you for ever. But it? Yes. The girls are | :21:34. | :21:39. | |
seemingly unstoppable at success has been spotted and they will soon be | :21:40. | :21:44. | |
heading to London to play the girls number 12 premiership leaders | :21:45. | :21:47. | |
Chelsea. Honourable lady icons actually believe the fight but we | :21:48. | :21:50. | |
are going. Thank you to everyone who has made it happen. It is going to | :21:51. | :21:57. | |
just be such a opportunity for us. It will be an amazing challenge. The | :21:58. | :22:01. | |
girls have gone out and done this themselves. Every game they just get | :22:02. | :22:06. | |
better and better and better. The attitude in training is just | :22:07. | :22:09. | |
phenomenal. I can't believe it, it is brilliant. Who are we? SAS! We | :22:10. | :22:21. | |
try our best! They have great team spirit there. Some really inspiring | :22:22. | :22:25. | |
youngsters on the programme tonight. When the girls get back for the | :22:26. | :22:27. | |
Chelsea match we should get them here on the sofa and have a chat | :22:28. | :22:30. | |
with them. Good luck with that anyway. We were talking about | :22:31. | :22:35. | |
Reverend dated earlier on in the programme out he is sleeping outside | :22:36. | :22:38. | |
for the whole of Lent. It hasn't been a great start today, as it? | :22:39. | :22:43. | |
I hope you have a little bit of shelter if he can find it because it | :22:44. | :22:47. | |
doesn't look too clever. At least it is slightly less cold. That will | :22:48. | :22:51. | |
happen tomorrow. Today has been miserable and cold and this is a | :22:52. | :22:54. | |
Weather Watch photograph where you can make someone out in the sea | :22:55. | :23:01. | |
there, that is pretty brave! It looks like we will continue to see | :23:02. | :23:05. | |
unsettled conditions in the next few days. Tomorrow is less windy. There | :23:06. | :23:11. | |
will be some sunshine and it is mostly dry with good conditions for | :23:12. | :23:15. | |
most of us. At the moment the winds are a bit of an issue and they | :23:16. | :23:18. | |
continue to increase this evening and for a short time overnight the | :23:19. | :23:23. | |
winds could cost up to 50 or 60. If it causes any problems your BBC | :23:24. | :23:27. | |
local radio will keep you informed. These westerly gales continue for at | :23:28. | :23:32. | |
least half the night before they gradually drop. By the end of the | :23:33. | :23:35. | |
night it is a little bit less breezy and hopefully with the wind you | :23:36. | :23:39. | |
won't see too much in the way of frost developing, although there is | :23:40. | :23:42. | |
a risk of a few passing showers, even though the main area of rain | :23:43. | :23:45. | |
has moved out of the way. You will notice very weak but across as just | :23:46. | :23:52. | |
one day, a ridge of high pressure, but after it goes it will be no | :23:53. | :23:56. | |
pressure in charge. This is Friday. The low pressure system gets a bit | :23:57. | :23:59. | |
stuck. This is the middle of the day on Friday and by the middle of the | :24:00. | :24:02. | |
day on Saturday it has been moved and even by Sunday it is close by. | :24:03. | :24:07. | |
We are looking at some unsettled weather for the next three days. The | :24:08. | :24:12. | |
cloud from earlier today with the more persistent rain has now broken | :24:13. | :24:15. | |
up quite nicely and there was some late sunshine in a few places. This | :24:16. | :24:21. | |
was this afternoon in Plymouth when briefly there was some sunshine here | :24:22. | :24:24. | |
with a few showers dotted around. This is before the winds got out but | :24:25. | :24:29. | |
now it looks a bit different down there. These pictures were filmed by | :24:30. | :24:34. | |
our cameraman. This evening and tonight for those heading out to see | :24:35. | :24:39. | |
it is going to be pretty blustery. See conditions on the north and | :24:40. | :24:43. | |
south coasts will be pretty lively, with some big waves. Some showers | :24:44. | :24:47. | |
around but not many. A lot of dry weather through the night. The | :24:48. | :24:51. | |
showers that appear are light and fleeting. The wind helps to hold the | :24:52. | :24:56. | |
temperatures up so it won't be as cold as it has been. Minimum | :24:57. | :25:00. | |
temperature of three or four. Tomorrow we wake up to some | :25:01. | :25:05. | |
sunshine. The chance of a light shower and for much of the day for | :25:06. | :25:09. | |
most of us it is a dry day with sunny spells and increasing amounts | :25:10. | :25:12. | |
of medium and high level cloud approaching from the south-west at | :25:13. | :25:16. | |
the end of the day. That is the change again to wet conditions as we | :25:17. | :25:19. | |
move into tomorrow night in the small hours of Friday morning. | :25:20. | :25:24. | |
Tomorrow is warmer and with less wind and a bit of sunshine it could | :25:25. | :25:29. | |
feel better. Ten or 11 is the maximum. The Isles of Scilly here it | :25:30. | :25:34. | |
is bright with sunny spells and the winds will drop. Pretty lively wins | :25:35. | :25:37. | |
for the next few hours across the islands. Times of high water. For | :25:38. | :25:47. | |
our surfers, pretty awful conditions really. With the strength of win the | :25:48. | :25:51. | |
pixies out there and up to seven or ten meet -- feet but really very | :25:52. | :25:59. | |
messy, if not stormy. The coastal waters forecast. Not much to smile | :26:00. | :26:08. | |
about. It has to be said on Friday. It is a pity miserable day with | :26:09. | :26:12. | |
outbreaks of rain but not quite as windy as it has been. For the | :26:13. | :26:16. | |
weekend, the area of low pressure across us and a bit of sunshine with | :26:17. | :26:20. | |
a few showers around. Not particular cold through the night time is | :26:21. | :26:23. | |
slightly colder in the daytime, with nine or ten the top temperature. | :26:24. | :26:28. | |
Have a good evening. Thank you very much. That is all | :26:29. | :26:33. | |
from us for now. We have not -- we have an update at 10:30pm tonight | :26:34. | :26:37. | |
and we will be back with you at 6:30am tomorrow. Have a good | :26:38. | :26:38. | |
evening. Good night. I think my political beliefs are | :26:39. | :27:04. | |
really quite straightforward. I believe that our country needs to | :27:05. | :27:08. | |
work for everyone. Not just for the rich, | :27:09. | :27:11. | |
not just for the privileged, not just for those who know | :27:12. | :27:13. | |
the right people or who've got the loudest voices, but a country | :27:14. | :27:16. | |
that really works for everyone, has the opportunity to be | :27:17. | :27:20. | |
who they want to be. In order to make sure that the | :27:21. | :27:24. | |
country works for everyone, Standing up for the vulnerable, | :27:25. | :27:27. | |
for the voiceless, against those who feel that they're | :27:28. | :27:32. | |
strong and powerful. | :27:33. | :27:37. |
