programme tonight. The beautiful North. An apology from the Tory peer | :00:06. | :00:09. | |
who said the North East would be a good place for shale gas fracking, | :00:10. | :00:14. | |
because it's desolate and uninhabited. Also tonight, fury of a | :00:14. | :00:17. | |
mother after the exclusion order she said protected her from the man who | :00:17. | :00:27. | |
:00:27. | :00:28. | ||
killed her son, is lifted. He might as well, and introduce himself and | :00:28. | :00:34. | |
say, I am the person who killed your son. The longest closure in the | :00:34. | :00:37. | |
Metro's history means buses only to the airport for travellers next | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
month. And a high tech solution to a common dilemma for breast-feeding | :00:40. | :00:42. | |
mums. In sport, why the Aussies just can't | :00:42. | :00:46. | |
get enough of the North East. And Papiss Cisse wearing that logo. He | :00:46. | :00:56. | |
:00:56. | :01:08. | ||
lost it. The criticism mounted for Lord Howell of Guildford today. As | :01:08. | :01:11. | |
we told you on last night's Look North, his comments in the House of | :01:11. | :01:14. | |
Lords - that quote: parts of the North-East are "uninhabited" and | :01:14. | :01:18. | |
"desolate" have caused a storm. He was arguing that our region would be | :01:18. | :01:21. | |
a better place for fracking operations - that's drilling and | :01:21. | :01:26. | |
fracturing underground shale for gas and oil. But today MPs, tourism | :01:26. | :01:29. | |
leaders and just about everybody with access to social media sites | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
have been tearing him to shreds. Lord Howell is a former Government | :01:33. | :01:36. | |
Minister who just happens to be the father-in-law of the Chancellor, | :01:36. | :01:42. | |
George Osborne, so he hasn't done the government any favours, either. | :01:42. | :01:45. | |
Here's our Chief Reporter Chris Stewart on how to lose your friends | :01:46. | :01:55. | |
:01:56. | :02:14. | ||
and uninhabited and desolate areas in parts of the north-east where | :02:14. | :02:23. | |
there is plenty of room for fracturing. -- tracking. Well away | :02:23. | :02:33. | |
:02:33. | :02:37. | ||
from anybody's residents. What we don't know is how well Lord Howell | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
knows the north-east. What we do know is as a government minister 30 | :02:42. | :02:50. | |
years ago, you came here at least twice stop the reaction today. | :02:50. | :02:55. | |
Terrible. He's never been here so he doesn't know what he's missing. | :02:55. | :03:04. | |
is very beautiful here. I was very annoyed. I didn't like the way it | :03:04. | :03:09. | |
was said. It is one of the most beautiful parts of the country with | :03:10. | :03:15. | |
huge potential. There we have had it before. Remember when and art critic | :03:15. | :03:25. | |
:03:25. | :03:28. | ||
arts about -- asked about Gateshead? Bomb it and then you will change it. | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
So that is what they think of us. Let's consider their region for a | :03:33. | :03:38. | |
moment. The Southeast consistent tidy of muggers, murderers wideboys, | :03:38. | :03:44. | |
Barrow boys and dodgy dealers who would sell their own granny for a | :03:44. | :03:54. | |
:03:54. | :03:54. | ||
pound. I should know, I have been there at least twice. But just in | :03:54. | :03:58. | |
case I'm wrong, I will apologise like Lord Howell and everything will | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
be all right again. All the statement will be wrecked as for the | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
rubbish it is. The latest on the story is that Lord Howell has | :04:05. | :04:15. | |
:04:15. | :04:16. | ||
accepted an invitation from the Labour MP Ian Avery to visit us. | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
Well, the criticism has been raining down on Lord Howell from all sides. | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
So, perhaps, not surprisingly, he's apologised. Earlier I spoke to North | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
East-born Kevin McGuire, Associate Editor of the staunchly Labour Daily | :04:26. | :04:36. | |
Mirror. I asked him if in his opinion an apology would do. No, it | :04:36. | :04:41. | |
is not enough. When he first spoke and called the north-east desolate, | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
he was saying what he and a lot of Home Counties Tories think will stop | :04:44. | :04:48. | |
some of them say it out of ignorance, some of the matters | :04:48. | :04:54. | |
prejudice. They'll treat the north-east as colonial, far-away | :04:54. | :05:03. | |
places. He might have put this in a strange way, but some people might | :05:03. | :05:08. | |
say, maybe he has a point, we do need jobs. As long as we can keep | :05:08. | :05:11. | |
some of the revenue from this cracking then there could be an | :05:11. | :05:21. | |
:05:21. | :05:24. | ||
opportunity. -- fracking. I find it a bit rich coming from Lord Howell | :05:24. | :05:29. | |
when he is a member of Lady Thatcher's government. It is a bit | :05:29. | :05:36. | |
rich. If you doesn't realise the north-east is beautiful, whether it | :05:36. | :05:42. | |
is down in Cleveland, the National Park, the gorgeous Georgian streets | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
of Newcastle, years from another world anyway and he is clearly | :05:45. | :05:50. | |
ignorant or prejudiced about the north-east. Do you think is in touch | :05:50. | :05:56. | |
with the country? He is very well connected because he is George | :05:56. | :06:02. | |
Osborne's father-in-law. But I think he is from another planet. Here's | :06:02. | :06:07. | |
one said to have remarked that George Osborne wasn't posh because | :06:07. | :06:13. | |
he lived in Notting Hill. Well, Northumberland may have an alien | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
visitors soon because he has accepted an invitation to have a bit | :06:16. | :06:26. | |
:06:26. | :06:27. | ||
of holiday here. You may need a bodyguard, someone to protect him. | :06:27. | :06:31. | |
But do we really want people like him in the north-east? I suspect we | :06:31. | :06:38. | |
don't. He should stay in his wake posh house in southeastern England | :06:38. | :06:48. | |
:06:48. | :06:53. | ||
She's described it as the final insult. Ten years ago Barbara | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
Dunne's son, Robert, was stabbed to death in Middlesbrough by a man | :06:57. | :07:00. | |
armed with a Samurai sword. His killer has now been released. But an | :07:00. | :07:03. | |
exclusion order which prevented him going anywhere near the Dunne family | :07:03. | :07:08. | |
has been lifted. Barbara has described the decision as sickening | :07:08. | :07:13. | |
and disrespectful - as Stuart Whincup reports. When her son's | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
killer was released from prison - Barbara Dunne says there was one | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
rule. He was excluded from coming anywhere near her family. But now | :07:20. | :07:28. | |
that order's been lifted. He might as well, and introduce himself and | :07:28. | :07:36. | |
say, I'm the person who in that she might as well introduce himself and | :07:36. | :07:43. | |
say I'm the person who killed your son. Why is he asking permission to | :07:43. | :07:49. | |
come into the exclusions and? The family of the man he killed lived | :07:49. | :07:55. | |
here. Jason Kelly was jailed in 2003 after he stabbed Robert Dunne to | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
death in a Middlesbrough street with a Samurai sword. For years Barbara | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
campaigned for tougher laws on knife crime and she took her fight to | :08:02. | :08:07. | |
Downing Street. But seven years on she feels she's been let down - by | :08:07. | :08:12. | |
the authorities. This area close to the family home was previously in | :08:12. | :08:18. | |
the exclusion zone. Every application is considered very | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
carefully before any decision is made and then discussed with the | :08:21. | :08:26. | |
victim or their family. If there are any changes, they come with very | :08:26. | :08:32. | |
strict rules. But such reassurances mean little to the family. I feel | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
like shouting out and saying, is there anybody out there who can | :08:35. | :08:40. | |
help? I feel very bitter about it. I feel like I have been treated like | :08:40. | :08:49. | |
the offender. Ever since her son's death Barbara says she's been failed | :08:49. | :08:52. | |
by the people who are supposed to be supporting her. | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
The Home Office has issued new guidance to police forces that | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
people with a history of domestic violence should NOT be allowed to | :08:58. | :09:03. | |
own a firearm or shotgun. It follows a campaign by the family of three | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
women shot dead by Michael Atherton in Horden, County Durham on New | :09:06. | :09:13. | |
Year's Day 2012. He killed his partner Susan McGoldrick, her sister | :09:13. | :09:16. | |
Alison Turnbull and Ms Turnbull's daughter Tanya with a shotgun that | :09:16. | :09:19. | |
police had returned to him despite his history of violence towards Ms | :09:19. | :09:27. | |
McGoldrick. Alison's Sun says he hopes police forces will use the | :09:27. | :09:37. | |
:09:37. | :09:40. | ||
guideline. It is just a small step in the right direction. One of my | :09:40. | :09:44. | |
biggest worries is that these guidelines are not mandatory. Police | :09:44. | :09:50. | |
do not have to abide by them and will police forces begin to abide by | :09:50. | :09:56. | |
them? Family and friends of the two young girls who drowned in the River | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
Wear at Washington have come together this afternoon for a | :09:59. | :10:02. | |
fundraising walk along the banks of the river where the two teenagers | :10:02. | :10:06. | |
died. 15-year-old Tonibeth Purvis and 14-year-old Chloe Fowler got | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
into difficulties during last week's hot weather. Today's walk was to | :10:09. | :10:13. | |
help raise money for their families. Jim Knight reports. They began | :10:14. | :10:17. | |
gathering on the river bank - close to where Tonibeth and Chloe first | :10:17. | :10:27. | |
:10:27. | :10:43. | ||
went into the water. I did a banner for her. Memories of Chloe... | :10:43. | :10:46. | |
since the rescue teams found the girls bodies last Tuesday night, | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
family, and hundreds of young friends and neighbours have been | :10:49. | :10:55. | |
trying to come to terms with what's happened. They believe the community | :10:55. | :11:01. | |
coming together so strongly like this can only help. We have left the | :11:01. | :11:04. | |
family to grieve in peace. The community has come together to do | :11:04. | :11:09. | |
all the rest. Fatfield bridge has now become a shrine to Tonibeth and | :11:09. | :11:13. | |
Chloe. The railings now draped with a huge array of flowers and soft | :11:13. | :11:16. | |
toys When the walk finally got under way, it was Chloe's family who led | :11:16. | :11:19. | |
the procession out of Fatfield as they headed-off towards Chloe's home | :11:19. | :11:28. | |
in Shiney Row. The family is welcome to every single penny we make and | :11:28. | :11:32. | |
they can do what they want with the rest of it. It was Chloe's family | :11:32. | :11:40. | |
who led the procession as they headed towards Chloe's home. Of | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
course, it is very hard to tell whether events like this really do | :11:43. | :11:48. | |
help, but from speaking to people here and the oppression I have got, | :11:48. | :11:51. | |
you get a sense they are just glad to be doing something positive in | :11:51. | :12:01. | |
:12:01. | :12:02. | ||
what has been a really difficult stage of a long term modernisation | :12:02. | :12:05. | |
of the Tyne and Wear Metro system. But this time, the section in | :12:05. | :12:09. | |
question is the busiest on the network. From this Sunday, the line | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
between Haymarket and Newcastle Airport, will be shut for almost | :12:11. | :12:17. | |
four weeks - as will the line to Four Lane Ends. It'll be the longest | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
closure in the Metro's history. Gerry Jackson is at the Metro's | :12:20. | :12:30. | |
:12:30. | :12:33. | ||
Newcastle Airport terminus now. is one of the places where people | :12:33. | :12:38. | |
who use the Metro will have to make alternative arrangements. Over the | :12:38. | :12:41. | |
27 days, hundreds of extra buses will be running along those routes. | :12:41. | :12:46. | |
It is not the first time it has happened during this big | :12:46. | :12:50. | |
modernisation and will not be the last. It is the biggest test of how | :12:50. | :12:56. | |
they compensate for a line being closed. A building site, men in | :12:56. | :13:01. | |
suits. And the media turning up. An ominous combination for any | :13:01. | :13:05. | |
commuter. But here, those bosses think they're getting pretty good at | :13:05. | :13:08. | |
it. They're spending nearly �400 million in 11 years, refurbishing | :13:08. | :13:16. | |
the Metro from top to bottom. This is year four. But it's the biggest | :13:16. | :13:24. | |
challenge yet. Not only is it large but it is right at the heart of the | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
Metro system so it impacts on the most number of trains and | :13:28. | :13:32. | |
passengers. We will be working seven days a week, 24 hours a day and we | :13:32. | :13:37. | |
will be spending almost half �1 million a day. So, the contractors | :13:37. | :13:42. | |
have been dotting themselves around the network over these years and | :13:42. | :13:49. | |
right now there are 20,000 tonnes of stone ballast, 7,000 concrete | :13:49. | :13:54. | |
sleepers and it is also so they can relay about four miles of track. | :13:54. | :14:03. | |
There are 1960s British rail vintage. -- they are. The buses will | :14:03. | :14:10. | |
go between the city centre, the airport and the four Lane ends. But | :14:10. | :14:14. | |
apparently it is the quietest time of year to do it. This will | :14:14. | :14:17. | |
safeguard the Metro for another generation. Once it is done, it will | :14:17. | :14:22. | |
last another 50 years so we can look back and another generation can reap | :14:22. | :14:32. | |
:14:32. | :14:35. | ||
the benefits. 50,000 people use the station alone in an average month. | :14:35. | :14:39. | |
The Haymarket and Regent Centre are major interchanges so a lot will | :14:39. | :14:43. | |
depend on whether these replacement buses are sufficient to remove all | :14:43. | :14:49. | |
these people around. Look out the numbers 901 and 900. There will also | :14:49. | :14:53. | |
be an express shuttle leaving people between Central Station and here, | :14:53. | :14:56. | |
only stopping at Saint James 's. There is information about us times | :14:56. | :15:06. | |
in this leaflet dotted around the station and there is the website. | :15:06. | :15:11. | |
Thanks Gerry. Still to come in tonight's Look North Jeff's here | :15:11. | :15:14. | |
with the sport news. And why this popular cafe is being forced to | :15:14. | :15:22. | |
close after eighty five years of serving up tea and scones. And rain | :15:22. | :15:29. | |
clouds gathering across the region tonight. When will the sun return? | :15:29. | :15:32. | |
Breast-feeding is the most natural thing in the world - but many new | :15:32. | :15:38. | |
mums find doing it in public a very daunting experience. Well, now a new | :15:38. | :15:41. | |
mobile phone app's been developed by computer scientists at Newcastle | :15:41. | :15:45. | |
University to try to help mothers feel more comfortable. | :15:45. | :15:47. | |
Breast-feeding mums can use their smartphones to share their | :15:47. | :15:50. | |
experiences and rate breastfeeding-friendly places. | :15:50. | :15:58. | |
Stephanie Cleasby reports. Breast-feeding mums are more than | :15:58. | :16:02. | |
welcome at this cafe in the Heaton area of Newcastle. But that's not | :16:02. | :16:09. | |
always the case in other public places. We went to a well-known | :16:09. | :16:14. | |
chain of restaurants and I asked if I could be put somewhere not in the | :16:14. | :16:17. | |
middle of the restaurant, and they said, you can use the disabled | :16:17. | :16:26. | |
toilet feed him. It was not very nice. The benefits of breast-feeding | :16:26. | :16:29. | |
for both mother and infant are well documented. Now mothers will always | :16:29. | :16:32. | |
know the most breastfeeding-friendly places in town. This free | :16:32. | :16:34. | |
Feed-Finder app has been developed by Newcastle University with the | :16:34. | :16:42. | |
help of 30 new mums. The app can be used with one hand there is is user | :16:42. | :16:48. | |
friendly for breast-feeding mums. allows them to rate cafes, shops and | :16:48. | :16:56. | |
other public places on their attitude to breast-feeding. I think | :16:56. | :17:03. | |
it has a real place the helping mothers starting breast-feeding when | :17:03. | :17:07. | |
they are lacking confidence. People need to remember you can breast-feed | :17:07. | :17:13. | |
anywhere. Anything that makes you feel more reassured and that you are | :17:13. | :17:20. | |
worrying welcome would be great. -- and that you are really welcome. | :17:20. | :17:24. | |
People are frightened about the reaction they will get an this app | :17:24. | :17:29. | |
is like having a breast-feeding friend in your pocket. It does just | :17:29. | :17:36. | |
that job of saying, this is an OK place, you won't get a bad reaction. | :17:36. | :17:39. | |
The app is about reassuring women that it is OK to breast-feed in | :17:39. | :17:43. | |
public and that many women have many positive experiences of | :17:43. | :17:46. | |
breast-feeding in public. Hopefully, the Mormon women that do it, the | :17:46. | :17:51. | |
more people will see it is completely normal option -- the more | :17:52. | :17:59. | |
women. It's hoped the app will help mothers to enjoy breast-feeding and | :17:59. | :18:03. | |
continue breast-feeding for longer. A cafe which has been serving teas | :18:03. | :18:06. | |
and coffees beside Derwent Water in Cumbria for eighty-five years is to | :18:06. | :18:09. | |
close. The same family has run the lakeside Tea Gardens in Keswick for | :18:09. | :18:13. | |
25 of those years but their lease hasn't been renewed. That's because | :18:13. | :18:17. | |
the next-door Theatre by the Lake wants to open a new restaurant on | :18:17. | :18:26. | |
the site which it says is vital for the future of the venue. A cafe | :18:26. | :18:30. | |
speciality - along with the views and the sunshine. People have been | :18:30. | :18:34. | |
dining al fresco at the Lakeside Tea Gardens in Keswick for around 85 | :18:34. | :18:39. | |
years. Run by the same family for the past twenty five, they'll be | :18:39. | :18:44. | |
shutting the doors for the last time at the end of the autumn. But not by | :18:44. | :18:53. | |
choice. We got a letter from solicitors to say on the 31st of | :18:53. | :19:00. | |
October, pack your stop up and get out. -- pack your stuff. The Theatre | :19:00. | :19:06. | |
by the Lake is the landlord and neighbour. But it hasn't renewed | :19:06. | :19:09. | |
their lease. It plans to redevelop this prime location into a | :19:09. | :19:13. | |
restaurant. Of course I understand that the current tenants are | :19:13. | :19:20. | |
concerned about the future, but we are the landlord and therefore we | :19:20. | :19:24. | |
are simply exercising the right that we have. As far as the theatre is | :19:24. | :19:31. | |
concerned, it will absolutely underpin our future. We are in hard | :19:31. | :19:35. | |
times so there is every pressure on us to come -- to increase our earned | :19:35. | :19:44. | |
income. Regulars are saddened.The theatre has got to make a living, as | :19:44. | :19:49. | |
well, but they have got a cafe. This is just really special. We macro we | :19:49. | :19:52. | |
love coming here. We feel so sad that it is not going to be the same. | :19:52. | :19:58. | |
We have come for years without children and the cafe is nothing | :19:58. | :20:07. | |
like this in the theatre. There's an irony in this ending for the cafe | :20:07. | :20:13. | |
owners. We had a really good night here with Dame Judi Dench and her | :20:13. | :20:18. | |
husband and we helped raise money for the new building. I feel so | :20:18. | :20:22. | |
sad, what they have done to us. Steve and Dina say theyhope to find | :20:23. | :20:26. | |
another place to open a cafe but it's easy to see why they'll miss | :20:26. | :20:36. | |
:20:36. | :20:41. | ||
this beautiful, historic and lucrative location. Now time for the | :20:41. | :20:50. | |
sport. He is back? Yes. Papiss Cisse marked his return to action in a | :20:50. | :20:53. | |
Newcastle shirt in style last night scoring the first goal in United's | :20:53. | :20:57. | |
2-0 victory over Scottish League Cup winners St Mirren. It was his first | :20:57. | :21:00. | |
game since finally agreeing to wear the name of club sponsors Wonga. | :21:00. | :21:03. | |
Dawn Thewlis reports. It was a sight many fans and perhaps Papiss Cisse | :21:03. | :21:06. | |
himself never thought they'd see. The Senegalese striker wearing a | :21:06. | :21:09. | |
Newcastle shirt bearing the name of payday loan company Wonga. But he | :21:09. | :21:13. | |
seemed relaxed as he took to the pitch at St Mirren Park last night. | :21:13. | :21:16. | |
The Muslim player had refused to wear the kit on religious grounds | :21:16. | :21:20. | |
and was excluded from the clubs pre season training camp in Portugal and | :21:20. | :21:23. | |
left to train alone at home before the parties came to an agreement | :21:24. | :21:27. | |
last week and Cisse decided to join the rest of his muslim team-mates in | :21:27. | :21:30. | |
wearing the Wonga shirt. The controversy certainly didn't seem to | :21:30. | :21:34. | |
have affected him on the pitch and his curling shot put Newcastle ahead | :21:34. | :21:37. | |
after 19 minutes the striker delighted to be back doing what he | :21:37. | :21:40. | |
does best - and he obviously wasn't the only one! Eight minutes later | :21:40. | :21:44. | |
they doubled their lead - Matthieu Debuchy scoring his first goal for | :21:44. | :21:47. | |
the club despite appeals for offside. Dan Gosling came close a | :21:47. | :21:50. | |
couple of times another player to have come back into the fold after | :21:50. | :21:54. | |
his move to Crystal Palace broke down. At least manager Alan Pardew | :21:54. | :21:58. | |
has some reasons to be cheerful in a summer which has so far failed to | :21:58. | :22:08. | |
:22:08. | :22:08. | ||
produce any new signings. Now it's hard to believe but the new football | :22:08. | :22:12. | |
season kicks off this weekend. Many of our teams have seen quite a few | :22:12. | :22:15. | |
changes over the close season with transfers and new managers. But for | :22:16. | :22:25. | |
:22:26. | :22:25. | ||
League Two York City it's experience that counts. Info all, goals make | :22:26. | :22:31. | |
you very popular. But it is not enough the cult status. For that, | :22:31. | :22:37. | |
you need longevity. Richard Criswell started his career at York aged 19. | :22:37. | :22:46. | |
Now, aged 36 and by several bigger clubs, he is back again. He made his | :22:46. | :22:50. | |
first unexpected return at the end of last season. Coming here and | :22:50. | :22:57. | |
playing a part, it gave me a real buzz for playing regularly again. I | :22:57. | :23:00. | |
didn't play much last year the Sheffield United. I wanted to get | :23:00. | :23:10. | |
:23:10. | :23:11. | ||
that feeling back. But in appearance terms, is upstaged by Daniel | :23:11. | :23:14. | |
Parslow. Eight consecutive season and 300 appearances including twice | :23:14. | :23:21. | |
a winner at Wembley. I love playing football here. If you had told me | :23:21. | :23:28. | |
when I was 20 that I would still be here now, I would think you were | :23:28. | :23:37. | |
lying. It has flown by. I've got an affiliation with the club now, I've | :23:37. | :23:45. | |
been here so long as I really enjoy my football here. And tomorrow we'll | :23:45. | :23:48. | |
preview the season for our other League Two side Hartlepool Utd. Now | :23:48. | :23:52. | |
Australian cricket fans will soon be converging on the region ahead of | :23:52. | :23:54. | |
the Fourth Ashes Test match at Chester-le-Street - the biggest | :23:54. | :23:58. | |
sporting occasion in our patch for a generation. So a timely announcement | :23:58. | :24:00. | |
today that the Aussies' athletics squad will base themselves on | :24:00. | :24:03. | |
Tyneside for a training camp in the run-up to next summer's Commonwealth | :24:04. | :24:13. | |
:24:14. | :24:15. | ||
Games in Glasgow. Yours truly and have a long-standing relationship | :24:15. | :24:18. | |
here. They competed in the city games some time ago and used | :24:18. | :24:27. | |
Gateshead is holding camp for the 2012 games in Delhi. We believe we | :24:27. | :24:32. | |
should have more training and athletics events here and we're | :24:32. | :24:35. | |
determined we're going to get them. It will help us having the Israeli | :24:35. | :24:43. | |
team training with us. A bit of a cricket connection? Yes, Brandon | :24:43. | :24:53. | |
:24:53. | :24:56. | ||
Stark is a bit of a start on the high jump. And his other. And Jemma | :24:56. | :25:02. | |
Lowe reached the final in the butterfly. But in the last few | :25:02. | :25:09. | |
minutes she has just failed to reach the final. Now, if it is not raining | :25:09. | :25:14. | |
where you are, it is on his way? Yes, for most of us across the | :25:14. | :25:24. | |
:25:24. | :25:28. | ||
region overnight, first of all, a tomorrow. Warm and humid for most | :25:28. | :25:33. | |
places through the afternoon and evening. Overnight, wet across the | :25:33. | :25:38. | |
region. That rain heavy for a time over the Cumbrian coast and fells. | :25:38. | :25:43. | |
By the early hours of the morning, it has started to clear. It is a | :25:43. | :25:53. | |
:25:53. | :25:56. | ||
mild night, muddy even. -- muggy. Not far below the daytime maximum | :25:56. | :25:58. | |
average temperature of the summertime in this part of the | :25:58. | :26:05. | |
world. It really humid, sticky feel. First thing tomorrow morning, more | :26:05. | :26:12. | |
heavy rainfall to come for a time. Sunshine breaks out again for much | :26:12. | :26:18. | |
of the region by lunchtime and into the mid-afternoon. It is warm, 26 | :26:18. | :26:28. | |
Celsius. As we tour northwards, most of the rain has cleared. A warm | :26:28. | :26:31. | |
afternoon and evening to come with southerly breezes drawing in that | :26:31. | :26:38. | |
mild air. Still cloudy for much of Cumbria, still raining on the coast | :26:38. | :26:44. | |
at tea-time but it won't be by the later part of the evening. Over the | :26:44. | :26:49. | |
next couple of days, things stay very pleasant indeed. Still warm, | :26:49. | :26:53. | |
possibly still feeling a little bit humid and muggy across much of the | :26:53. | :27:01. | |
region on Friday. A fresher feel by the start of the weekend. One or two | :27:01. | :27:04. | |
showers on Saturday and the temperature is probably no more than | :27:04. | :27:13. | |
the low 20s in degrees Celsius. A lot more sunshine than we are | :27:13. | :27:17. | |
expecting through the early part of tomorrow. It cooler feel on | :27:17. | :27:21. |
