Hello, and welcome to Look Dast continues. The dream | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
After that historic vote in Scotland, we explain what it | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
We're in Corby where the independence referendum has | :00:07. | :00:11. | |
split local opinion among the large ex`pat Scots commtnity: | :00:12. | :00:20. | |
I love the Thistle, I give to this economy but I love the Thistle | :00:21. | :00:26. | |
standing next to the rose. We take you on a | :00:27. | :00:30. | |
behind the scenes tour of And we're counting | :00:31. | :00:33. | |
down to the weekend's big m`tch Scotland remains part of thd UK | :00:34. | :00:36. | |
but with a lot more powers. And England looks set | :00:37. | :00:47. | |
for some big changes too. The climax of the referendul | :00:48. | :00:50. | |
campaign certainly gripped Scotland. And, closer to home, | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
the large community of Scots in the town of Corby in Northamptonshire | :00:54. | :00:56. | |
eagerly awaited the outcome. The stakes were high, a votd on | :00:57. | :00:58. | |
the future of Scotland and the UK. And at the Grampian Club, | :00:59. | :01:09. | |
Corby's Scottish expats werd anxiously waiting to see how | :01:10. | :01:11. | |
the votes would stack up. Britain will be a far better place | :01:12. | :01:16. | |
together than everyone splitting up. It will be no good to no`ond in | :01:17. | :01:20. | |
Scotland, they need to realhse that. I do not believe that England | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
have helped us in Scotland. After a long night in Corby, | :01:25. | :01:33. | |
an early morning mist. But the result of the vote | :01:34. | :01:35. | |
in Scotland was clear. I love Scotland, I love the Thistle, | :01:36. | :01:38. | |
I give to this economy, but I like the Thistle standing next | :01:39. | :01:43. | |
to the Rose. People have had this opporttnity to | :01:44. | :01:50. | |
go independent, I think the heart went out | :01:51. | :01:52. | |
the window and the head came back | :01:53. | :02:00. | |
in. There are more than 7,500 Scots`born | :02:01. | :02:02. | |
people living in Corby. But | :02:03. | :02:05. | |
the result could affect even those Everybody seems to be agreed that we | :02:06. | :02:09. | |
need more devolved powers, not just to Ireland, | :02:10. | :02:16. | |
Scotland and Wales, but also to If we are going to really lhsten to | :02:17. | :02:18. | |
people's voices, and make every vote count, we would also have to reform | :02:19. | :02:25. | |
the electoral system. The Scottish Saltire could dase to | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
fly and also the Union flag in Corby, a reminder this referendum | :02:31. | :02:40. | |
result mattered not just a pupil in Scotland but elsewhere as well, | :02:41. | :02:42. | |
especially those living in this Northamptonshire town that they | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
still called Little Scotland. And nearby Northampton also has | :02:46. | :02:47. | |
an interest. Some 700 years ago in 1328, | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
a treaty was signed at It brought to an end more than 0 | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
years of war between Scotland It is the first time in the form | :02:55. | :02:58. | |
of a treaty that England recognises It is important, because it would be | :02:59. | :03:07. | |
the basis of negotiations if ever Of course, for now, that's been | :03:08. | :03:19. | |
rejected by the people of Scotland. A relief for some of Corby's Scots, | :03:20. | :03:25. | |
but a disappointment for others Dr Sean Lang is a senior lecturer | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
at Anglia Ruskin University He is a specialist in the hhstory | :03:32. | :03:33. | |
of Britain. A short while ago, I asked him | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
if the referendum outcome in Scotland will have implications | :03:39. | :03:41. | |
for us here in the East of Dngland. What has happened now is th`t, | :03:42. | :03:44. | |
since the vote last night and this morning, the whole United | :03:45. | :03:51. | |
Kingdom, particularly England, The question of how this will pan | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
out for the rest of the UK, the implications, once you start | :03:56. | :04:04. | |
talking about extra powers for Scottish Parliament, obviously, | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
the question of England comds in. For any particular region | :04:09. | :04:14. | |
like our own, that raises qtestions, what will it mean | :04:15. | :04:21. | |
if you start devolving powers? Some sort of regional | :04:22. | :04:23. | |
representation. The eastern region has more | :04:24. | :04:33. | |
inhabitants than the whole Isn't it right we have more powers | :04:34. | :04:35. | |
to raise taxes, to make dechsions Indeed, | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
people will think in those terms. The biggest difference lookhng | :04:41. | :04:47. | |
in terms of population, East Anglia isn't quite the same as Scotland | :04:48. | :04:56. | |
in terms of identity, it is a region of a larger entity, England, | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
it is not a direct comparison. In strict justice terms, | :05:02. | :05:04. | |
the idea that if you are gohng to give a reward as people see, to one | :05:05. | :05:11. | |
party who has caused troubld, then it is only natural that people | :05:12. | :05:14. | |
will say, what about us? What are the benefits for the | :05:15. | :05:24. | |
eastern region The obvious thing, by definhtion, | :05:25. | :05:26. | |
is more control over the thhngs It will tend to be what you might | :05:27. | :05:32. | |
call bread`and`butter issues. We could be more responsive directly | :05:33. | :05:42. | |
to big demands like that, then that We give more money to Scotl`nd | :05:43. | :05:45. | |
than Scotland gives back to us. We have a powerhouse in | :05:46. | :05:58. | |
the economy of Cambridge, You are right, that question has | :05:59. | :06:00. | |
been raised by Wales just this Clearly, we will have to rethink | :06:01. | :06:07. | |
the basis of funding the various There are all sorts of posshbilities | :06:08. | :06:14. | |
raised by this referendum. It is exciting | :06:15. | :06:30. | |
but we have to get it right. For how soon changes will come, all | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
the signs were in terms of what they were saying to the Scots is change | :06:36. | :06:41. | |
would come in quickly, they talked David Cameron said changes dlsewhere | :06:42. | :06:44. | |
would be on the same timetable. Presumably, changes which wd could | :06:45. | :06:56. | |
see in the course of 2015. Our political correspondent Andrew | :06:57. | :07:00. | |
Sinclair will be giving his thoughts on the Scottish vote and wh`t it | :07:01. | :07:03. | |
means, later in the programle. It's been revealed tonight that | :07:04. | :07:06. | |
the Deputy Police Commissioner for Bedfordshire was forced to leave | :07:07. | :07:08. | |
her post, after trying to interfere At the time, the Commissiondr's | :07:09. | :07:11. | |
Office gave no explanation for But Look East has learnt th`t she | :07:12. | :07:16. | |
tried to exert her influencd Neil Bradford is following | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
the story and joins me now. What do we know? | :07:21. | :07:34. | |
The commissioner left her ?36,0 0 a year job rather suddenly at the end | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
of July. The reasons for her resignation were not made ptblic at | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
the time because they involved and active court case, a trial `t Luton | :07:44. | :07:46. | |
Crown Court, relating to an attempted murder of a Luton | :07:47. | :07:50. | |
accountant. The Commissioner was said to have | :07:51. | :07:57. | |
used her position to influence the judge. We understand that she was | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
asking him to impose reporthng restrictions regarding a kex | :08:03. | :08:06. | |
witness, to save embarrassing details of the case becoming public. | :08:07. | :08:15. | |
That witness was her fiance who is related to the accused. | :08:16. | :08:22. | |
It was decided that her poshtion was untenable. It comes in the same week | :08:23. | :08:27. | |
that her boss that that he will not face any further proceedings | :08:28. | :08:30. | |
regarding sharing information about a live investigation with hhs | :08:31. | :08:34. | |
partner. What happens next? | :08:35. | :08:37. | |
At the time, there was real concern this could interfere with the course | :08:38. | :08:44. | |
of justice. But the matter hs now fully investigated. Bedfordshire | :08:45. | :08:48. | |
Police say it is now a mattdr for the Police And Crime Panel which | :08:49. | :08:52. | |
scrutinises the office of the Police and Crime Commissioner. Thex may | :08:53. | :08:56. | |
feel that no further action is required, or that this constitutes | :08:57. | :09:00. | |
misconduct in a public office, and refer the matter to the IPCC. We | :09:01. | :09:05. | |
contacted the former commissioner tonight but she said she was unable | :09:06. | :09:07. | |
to comment further at this time Cambridgeshire Police are sdarching | :09:08. | :09:10. | |

back into state ownership, hf Labour As Labour members gather for | :09:26. | :09:31. | |
the party's annual conference, the idea of a partial re`nation`lisation | :09:32. | :09:35. | |
is gaining support. Those in favour say it's | :09:36. | :09:38. | |
the most effective way to control Labour think they have found | :09:39. | :09:41. | |
an issue which will play well with Despite small improvements hn recent | :09:42. | :09:49. | |
years, there are still regular complaints about the qualitx of | :09:50. | :09:56. | |
service, particularly on thd lines which run through Northamptonshire | :09:57. | :10:00. | |
and Cambridge into London. Labour says it is proof that | :10:01. | :10:02. | |
privatisation isn't working. It is time | :10:03. | :10:05. | |
for governments to intervend, and put | :10:06. | :10:07. | |
the public back in charge again What we are trying to do is have | :10:08. | :10:13. | |
a railway that puts the interests of passengers first, | :10:14. | :10:16. | |
not profits. We want a cap on rail fares, | :10:17. | :10:20. | |
allow a directly operated r`ilway to bid against | :10:21. | :10:23. | |
the private sector train opdrators. And devolve rail services | :10:24. | :10:25. | |
to local communities. The party points to the success of | :10:26. | :10:27. | |
the East Coast Main Line whhch runs Taken back into public ownership | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
after National Express pulldd out, it has made money, and customer | :10:32. | :10:36. | |
satisfaction has risen. Labour wants to see more | :10:37. | :10:40. | |
publicly`run companies biddhng to Those who support | :10:41. | :10:42. | |
privatisation say, if that happened, there would not be enough money to | :10:43. | :10:49. | |
fund improvements to the network. What happens | :10:50. | :10:52. | |
when a company takes on a franchise is they put up the money | :10:53. | :10:55. | |
to get things like new carrhages. That is what we need, particularly | :10:56. | :11:03. | |
on the Norwich to London line, in East Anglia, that | :11:04. | :11:06. | |
investment to get us a bettdr There is still confusion ovdr | :11:07. | :11:09. | |
exactly how Many in the industry say | :11:10. | :11:10. | |
partial renationalisation It would have been simpler to say, | :11:11. | :11:13. | |
let the franchises run out, take them back in`house, | :11:14. | :11:21. | |
and recreate a British Rail. There are some in the party who | :11:22. | :11:26. | |
would like to see the full renationalisation of the rahlways, | :11:27. | :11:29. | |
but Ed Miliband will not go that Even calling for partial | :11:30. | :11:32. | |
renationalisation gives votdrs Has privatisation worked | :11:33. | :11:36. | |
for the region's railways, or is it There will be more on that story, | :11:37. | :11:40. | |
and other coverage from the Labour Party conference, on this wdekend's | :11:41. | :11:51. | |
edition of Sunday Politics. It's at 11 o'clock on Sundax, | :11:52. | :11:53. | |
here on BBC One. Researchers in Cambridge have been | :11:54. | :11:56. | |
given more than ?2 million to look The grant will fund a number | :11:57. | :11:59. | |
of projects, including one to allow scientists to investigate r`re forms | :12:00. | :12:05. | |

boys Luton Town and Cambridge United Plus, | :12:29. | :12:30. | |
the arts festival that brings the circus onto the streets, and it s | :12:31. | :12:37. | |
going from strength to strength If you're driving | :12:38. | :12:45. | |
around the countryside and see a field full of silver then | :12:46. | :12:47. | |
the chances are it's a solar farm. They're springing up | :12:48. | :12:50. | |
across the region, a carbon`free way But they're also controvershal, | :12:51. | :12:53. | |
many people say they're a blot Now one of the biggest | :12:54. | :12:59. | |
in Cambridgeshire is fighting back. The owners claim that as well | :13:00. | :13:05. | |
as producing green power wildlife A Cambridge a field for harvesting, | :13:06. | :13:19. | |
but not crops, the son. Row after row, the gaps between the p`nels are | :13:20. | :13:25. | |
so these shades doesn't encroach on the light. How does this work? The | :13:26. | :13:31. | |
sun comes down and hit the cells, each of these cells is on a module, | :13:32. | :13:38. | |
and is ultimately linked into the inverter over there. From there it | :13:39. | :13:43. | |
goes into the National Grid. On a day like this, will it work? If you | :13:44. | :13:49. | |
feel it, the panels are not hot Although not hot, they are very | :13:50. | :13:56. | |
efficient. More efficient than in Italy and Spain, for exampld, that | :13:57. | :14:00. | |
is why in the UK we generatd more solar power. Today I visited just | :14:01. | :14:08. | |
one small section of it, installed recently. There are over 20,000 | :14:09. | :14:14. | |
panels here. Over 31 acres, which can power 1400 homes a year. Solar | :14:15. | :14:20. | |
farms have been criticised `s a blot on the landscape. But here, largely | :14:21. | :14:25. | |
undisturbed, nature is workhng around it. While filming, wd saw | :14:26. | :14:33. | |
hairs, a kestrel, and evidence of a badger set. Some people aren't | :14:34. | :14:38. | |
comfortable with land being used for solar farms. Understandable, we were | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
very careful about using thd field, this is not a good feel for | :14:43. | :14:46. | |
agriculture, and we would ndver have seen a registered here a few years | :14:47. | :14:52. | |
ago. This is a great opporttnity for regeneration. This is the whole site | :14:53. | :14:58. | |
from the air. The country's largest solar farm is now six times the size | :14:59. | :15:03. | |
of this. When the lease runs out on this land and 25 years, the company | :15:04. | :15:08. | |
says the structures can be pulled down and recycled and the l`nd | :15:09. | :15:09. | |
return to crops. Sport now and six weeks into the | :15:10. | :15:15. | |
football season it's time for a progress report on our teams who | :15:16. | :15:18. | |
made it back into the Footb`ll League. | :15:19. | :15:21. | |
With that and news of two of our sailors in the world | :15:22. | :15:23. | |
championships, here's Tom. We'll start with football and our | :15:24. | :15:25. | |
sides aiming for the Premier League. Ipswich in 10th | :15:26. | :15:28. | |
after back`to`back wins for the first time this season have | :15:29. | :15:30. | |
to wait until Monday to plax Wigan. Tomorrow, Norwich are back | :15:31. | :15:33. | |
at home against Birmingham. Two away wins inside a week has | :15:34. | :15:38. | |
lifted them to second, another win I'm sure everybody now is | :15:39. | :15:43. | |
expecting it to be a formalhty. I have been | :15:44. | :15:49. | |
in the game long enough to know that If we go up | :15:50. | :15:53. | |
into this complacently thinking it is a case of how many we will score, | :15:54. | :15:57. | |
Birmingham will turn us over. Here are the games in Leagud One, | :15:58. | :16:01. | |
all our sides lost in midwedk. MK Dons' fans will no doubt give | :16:02. | :16:05. | |
an extra cheer tomorrow for one Midfielder Dele Alli has bedn | :16:06. | :16:08. | |
named the Football League's The 18`year`old has been linked with | :16:09. | :16:13. | |
several Premier League clubs but he's agreed | :16:14. | :16:18. | |
a contract extension with the Dons. I have enjoyed playing here, | :16:19. | :16:30. | |
hopefully I can help get thd club promoted. I would like to bd part of | :16:31. | :16:34. | |
that, it would be a dream. The people here are great, they help | :16:35. | :16:35. | |
keep my feet on the ground. people here are great, they help | :16:36. | :16:36. | |
keep my feet on the ground. Now in League Two, | :16:37. | :16:39. | |
all five sides are in action. The U's are expecting their | :16:40. | :16:41. | |
biggest crowd in over a dec`de. Both teams were promoted | :16:42. | :16:46. | |
last summer, so this will bd There will always be managers who | :16:47. | :16:56. | |
have turned around the club's fortunes. These two took Calbridge | :16:57. | :17:03. | |
and Luton back to the footb`ll league. It hasn't been as | :17:04. | :17:06. | |
straightforward in their new surroundings, they are still | :17:07. | :17:11. | |
settling in eight games in. Performance wise, I haven't been | :17:12. | :17:17. | |
happy, we need to add a few roles. We have had a fairly solid start. If | :17:18. | :17:22. | |
on the picture is room for improvement, Cambridge have had to | :17:23. | :17:26. | |
open a game of it. A new, user`friendly ticket system. | :17:27. | :17:32. | |
Progress for a club that st`rted the season with only two full`thme | :17:33. | :17:34. | |
members of staff. They are both ambitious clubs but have both been | :17:35. | :17:39. | |
in financial difficulty in the past. The key to their success is a | :17:40. | :17:44. | |
winning team on the pitch, how much they spend about getting in trouble | :17:45. | :17:49. | |
again. It is easy to throw loney at it but you collapse later. What we | :17:50. | :17:54. | |
are trying to do as custodi`ns of the club is, we owe it to the | :17:55. | :17:58. | |
supporters, when we leave it, the club is in a better position than we | :17:59. | :18:02. | |
took over. Both clubs have had to bring in reinforcements this week, | :18:03. | :18:07. | |
injuries have already taken their toll. With crowds of around 800 , | :18:08. | :18:11. | |
looters have the deeper pockets but are two points worse off th`n | :18:12. | :18:15. | |
Cambridge. The standard has been better, there is more footb`ll | :18:16. | :18:19. | |
players, everyone is quicker, better, stronger, can read the game | :18:20. | :18:24. | |
better. It is harder to score a goal and easy to conceive. I do X`rated | :18:25. | :18:28. | |
differentiable games? What sort of question is that `` are you | :18:29. | :18:39. | |
expecting to finish above C`mbridge? The three points on offer would be | :18:40. | :18:44. | |
useful to both teams, but not vital. Cambridge are neglecting thdir | :18:45. | :18:50. | |
biggest crowd in over a dec`de as to old foes do battle. | :18:51. | :18:52. | |
To rugby, English champions Northampton head | :18:53. | :18:54. | |
to Newcastle on Sunday keen to learn from their opening defeat. | :18:55. | :18:57. | |
Star winger George North has told us they're determined to send out | :18:58. | :19:00. | |
a message to the rest of the Premiership. | :19:01. | :19:04. | |
A lot of teams are coming at us week in, week out wanting to smash | :19:05. | :19:08. | |
If you can't get motivated to defend your own house and look | :19:09. | :19:13. | |
after your own team, I don't think you should put the jersey on. | :19:14. | :19:16. | |
To the sailing World Championships in Spain, | :19:17. | :19:18. | |
Peterborough windsurfer Nick Dempsey has missed out on a medal. | :19:19. | :19:20. | |

The road to Rio begins here. After a dramatic coastline. The past six | :19:28. | :19:43. | |
days have been about qualifhcation, racing to make the cut. The top ten | :19:44. | :19:47. | |
are battling for medals. Nick Dempsey has been here enterdd | :19:48. | :19:52. | |
before, but the Olympic silver medallist struggled to come to terms | :19:53. | :19:56. | |
with the heavy conditions. Lother nature dished out strong brdezes, | :19:57. | :20:02. | |
that 20 fell out of contenthon for a medal but the climb up to fhfth I | :20:03. | :20:09. | |
came here with a realistic goal of finishing top five, I surpassed my | :20:10. | :20:13. | |
own expectations of how I would perform in the wind, that is great. | :20:14. | :20:17. | |
I was disappointed with my results in the strong winds. There have been | :20:18. | :20:25. | |
better news for Essex's Saskia Clark and her partner Hannah Mills, with | :20:26. | :20:29. | |
four top three finishers, they crossed the line second and fourth | :20:30. | :20:32. | |
husband morning listening to third overall. `` second and fourth | :20:33. | :20:36. | |

football including team news, There's coverage of all the games | :20:40. | :20:42. | |
on your local BBC Radio Station You may remember there was | :20:43. | :20:46. | |
controversy in the summer when the arts council announced who | :20:47. | :20:48. | |
was it was giving funding to. Places like the Theatre Roy`l | :20:49. | :20:51. | |
in Bury St Edmunds lost out, but one of the big winners | :20:52. | :20:54. | |
a circus and street art event called It's been going for 7 years | :20:55. | :20:57. | |
and it's been going This week, the streets of | :20:58. | :21:01. | |
Great Yarmouth have been filled Dawn Gerber has been to see them | :21:02. | :21:05. | |
in action. It is iconic and represents Great | :21:06. | :21:22. | |
Yarmouth's Circus heritage, but tonight, the next generation of | :21:23. | :21:24. | |
performers get their chance to shine. This local lad gradu`ted from | :21:25. | :21:28. | |
Circus School recently and lixes debut performance tonight. There is | :21:29. | :21:33. | |
a history of circus in my f`mily, my uncle is a clown and perforled | :21:34. | :21:38. | |
here, growing up, he operatdd his own circus. I used to grow tp and | :21:39. | :21:45. | |
see that with my family. It is always in my mind. Performing to a | :21:46. | :21:52. | |
home crowd is scary. Especi`lly being back here, I spend so much | :21:53. | :21:56. | |
time here. I watched all thd shows, now it is my chance to be in the | :21:57. | :22:02. | |
ring. Tom is one of 200 arthsts performing at this year's Ott There | :22:03. | :22:08. | |
Festival. We have a huge variety of art forms, dance, music, circus | :22:09. | :22:13. | |
something for everyone and visitors as well. That is what we want to | :22:14. | :22:18. | |
do, something enormous, but for everyone. Away from the rehdarsals, | :22:19. | :22:22. | |
producers and promoters frol across Europe have been at a conference | :22:23. | :22:26. | |
discussing how to help performers at this country get into the | :22:27. | :22:31. | |
international scene. We will explain that if you have a UK company has | :22:32. | :22:36. | |
you can structure it and also what type of performance could tour in | :22:37. | :22:40. | |
other countries. Because yot can understand that maybe the ET and the | :22:41. | :22:47. | |
UK can be different to what is happening in, say, France. The | :22:48. | :22:53. | |
conference heard today is vdry international. I think that just | :22:54. | :22:59. | |
shows why we should back thhs. The festival brings around ?1 mhllion in | :23:00. | :23:03. | |
the local economy, attracting thousands of visitors and elploy | :23:04. | :23:08. | |
local people. It is starting to get recognition nationally and | :23:09. | :23:10. | |
internationally, adding to regenerate the area and put Great | :23:11. | :23:11. | |
Yarmouth back on the map. Back to tonight's main storx, | :23:12. | :23:15. | |
the decision by Scotland to stay We've already heard reaction | :23:16. | :23:18. | |
from people in the region. But where does this leave | :23:19. | :23:21. | |
the politics of the region? Andrew Sinclair is here, | :23:22. | :23:24. | |
how much has changed? Two things are going on herd, we are | :23:25. | :23:36. | |
part of the national story, a lot of MPs think we have given awax too | :23:37. | :23:39. | |
much power to Scotland. Thex are worried that Google is baton that | :23:40. | :23:47. | |
people in England `` that pdople in England will think they havd lost | :23:48. | :23:51. | |
out. MPs are saying don't forget about us. This is a potenti`lly big | :23:52. | :23:59. | |
row in the Conservative Party. There is the regional story as well, | :24:00. | :24:03. | |
people are saying that becatse Scotland has more powers, the | :24:04. | :24:08. | |
regions should have more as well. If we live in Cornwall or the | :24:09. | :24:11. | |
north`west of England, this would be a live issue. But in this rdgion, | :24:12. | :24:16. | |
there is no East Anglia and separatist movement. But whhle local | :24:17. | :24:20. | |
politicians might want to t`ke more power from Westminster, thex will | :24:21. | :24:22. | |
struggle to get ordinary people interested. | :24:23. | :24:24. | |
And yet the Prime Minister talked today about giving more powdr to | :24:25. | :24:27. | |
Yes, he said he wanted to do more to empower the cities, many of our | :24:28. | :24:38. | |
towns of our towns have alrdady been empowered, places like Cambridge | :24:39. | :24:43. | |
Ipswich, Milton Keynes, that gives councils more of a say over spending | :24:44. | :24:48. | |
and development. A lot of this region is verbal, indeed, the local | :24:49. | :24:52. | |
and government organisations pointed out that people in the countryside | :24:53. | :24:56. | |
often feel left out when it comes to spending decisions. Remember, we pay | :24:57. | :25:00. | |
more into government than wd get back. Whether we like it or not | :25:01. | :25:04. | |
there will be a debate in the years ahead, how do we empower people do | :25:05. | :25:07. | |
they want to be a debate in the years ahead, how do | :25:08. | :25:15. | |
with the heat and humidity building, it has all gone back. Thunddrstorms | :25:16. | :25:22. | |
across the region. This aftdrnoon, we have seen an intense perhod of | :25:23. | :25:27. | |
rainfall, some torrential downpours causing localised flooding. This | :25:28. | :25:34. | |
area is stretching from Essdx up to West Norfolk. Flashes of lightning, | :25:35. | :25:42. | |
anywhere is at risk of thesd in the evening and overnight. They could | :25:43. | :25:47. | |
pop up anywhere. Nowhere is free of them, but you might find th`t some | :25:48. | :25:51. | |
of the region might end up staying dry. Lots of missing moving in, fog | :25:52. | :26:06. | |
patches in the morning. `` ` lot of mist. A cold front will movd in | :26:07. | :26:14. | |
cooler, bright and fresh to the north. That will be with us by | :26:15. | :26:18. | |
Sunday. But for tomorrow, ftrther showers, any of them could be heavy | :26:19. | :26:23. | |
and fungi. If anything, as that when the front approaches, they could be | :26:24. | :26:30. | |
more frequent `` heavy and thundery. Still quite warm and humid, | :26:31. | :26:35. | |
temperatures could get you 20 Celsius, it'll get cooler and fresh | :26:36. | :26:40. | |
as different heads southwards. In the afternoon, showers will keep | :26:41. | :26:43. | |
going, gradually dying away as we get overnight. This is what is | :26:44. | :26:51. | |
likely to happen next, high`pressure, good news, it will | :26:52. | :26:54. | |
mean fine and settled conditions from Sunday onwards until the middle | :26:55. | :27:01. | |
of the week. To summarise, we will see further showers on Saturday that | :27:02. | :27:04. | |
could be heavy and thundery, then it will be quite a bit more sunshine on | :27:05. | :27:09. | |
Sunday, perhaps the odd coastal shower, most places dry, but cooler | :27:10. | :27:16. | |
and fresher. A drop in tempdrature on Sunday, but it looks as though we | :27:17. | :27:19. | |
will get if you days of dry weather. There will be patchy cloud, | :27:20. | :27:27. | |
but plenty of sunshine. A lhttle cooler by day and by night, | :27:28. | :27:31. | |
temperatures dropping to single figures, some cool nights, but not | :27:32. | :27:37. | |
as much mist. Thank you, Aldx. You knew it would rain, didn't xou? Yes. | :27:38. | :27:39. | |
Good night. devoting their time | :27:40. | :27:54. | |
to National Lottery-funded projects and, tonight, we're celebrating | :27:55. | :28:48. | |
the difference they make. as we see how important these people | :28:49. | :28:53. | |
and projects really are. | :28:54. | :28:58. |
