Hello and welcome to Thursday's Look North. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
The Newcastle camera that has raised more find than any in England. | :00:00. | :00:19. | |
Thanks for saving me. The man that went under a transplant operation is | :00:20. | :00:21. | |
organising a funding trip. A major military exercise | :00:22. | :00:22. | |
in Northumberland. On mavoeures with the soldiers | :00:23. | :00:24. | |
who are about to join Preying on the seagulls. Is this the | :00:25. | :00:37. | |
solution to sorting out the birds that pester tourists? In sport, | :00:38. | :00:45. | |
another award at Buckingham Palace. If there was a prize for dedication, | :00:46. | :00:50. | |
it could go to the man who has been reporting on his local football team | :00:51. | :00:52. | |
for more than half a century. Newcastle Council's denied claims | :00:53. | :01:01. | |
it's running a campaign against drivers after a single bus | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
lane in the city brought in more Over 60,000 drivers | :01:05. | :01:07. | |
were caught by the camera on John Dobson Street raising five | :01:08. | :01:14. | |
thousand a day for the council. But the council says it's not | :01:15. | :01:21. | |
using motorists as a cash cow. Here's our News | :01:22. | :01:23. | |
Correspondent Mark Denten. As he drives around Newcastle, | :01:24. | :01:25. | |
something annoys him. Still no sign of any warning signs | :01:26. | :01:36. | |
at all at the moment. We are about to turn | :01:37. | :01:44. | |
onto John Dobson street. David was snapped by | :01:45. | :01:46. | |
a camera on the street He has since won his money back on | :01:47. | :01:55. | |
appeal but thousands of other drivers have shelled out because | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
this is the big daddy of bus lanes. It is a record breaker, taking more | :02:01. | :02:05. | |
fines in a single day than any other. It is just 70 yards long, but | :02:06. | :02:13. | |
62,975 fines were handed out to drivers illegally using this bus | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
lane between February and October last year, making a total of ?1.5 | :02:18. | :02:22. | |
million or ?5,690 a day. It is part of a wider campaign | :02:23. | :02:38. | |
around the city that seems to be about making the city as | :02:39. | :02:40. | |
unattractive as possible to ordinary drivers. The fact of the matter is, | :02:41. | :02:43. | |
lots of people need to use their cars. The rest of the road is open | :02:44. | :02:46. | |
to the general public but a tiny little bit at the bottom there, | :02:47. | :02:49. | |
which isn't an accident hotspot or congestion hot spot, but apparently | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
they have decided to make this unavailable to the traffic 24/7. The | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
number of the people who were being caught was astronomical. The council | :02:58. | :03:01. | |
should have realised that there was something not right about this. The | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
did not react to the fact that many people, being used to John Dobson | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
Street, were taken by surprised by this bus lane and still find it very | :03:10. | :03:14. | |
difficult to understand why the council would think this is a | :03:15. | :03:18. | |
sensible way of organising the traffic in the centre of the city. | :03:19. | :03:24. | |
Of course, you can change your route to avoid the camera but that is | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
easier said than done. Somewhere on here I need to manage to carry out a | :03:29. | :03:37. | |
3-point turn, bearing in mind if there was not empty space year, it | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
would be difficult. I am not sure I'm going to be able to do it here. | :03:42. | :03:52. | |
A 5-point turn, may be. This is me in an ordinary size car. If I was in | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
a large fan, I would not be able to do this minister at all. -- large | :03:59. | :04:04. | |
van. It is like me in a supermarket car park. Mark joins me. We are | :04:05. | :04:10. | |
talking about a lot of money here. We certainly are. This building | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
behind me here, they were also talking about a lot of money, the | :04:14. | :04:18. | |
amount the council has to save in the next year, ?30 million. Could | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
the use that money that they have got from the fines, or are they | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
using to top that up? The answer they are saying is, no. They can | :04:27. | :04:33. | |
only spend those fines on transport related issues. I have been speaking | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
to a member of the council. It is not about finding people, it is | :04:38. | :04:41. | |
about improving the transport in the city. People who come into the city | :04:42. | :04:46. | |
centre comment by bus. Most of those come up John Dobson Street. You have | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
been accused of running a campaign to make this as unattractive or as | :04:51. | :04:57. | |
possible to motorists. Why should they if you find them? We do not get | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
fined if the baby rules of the road. Tell me one thing you're going to | :05:03. | :05:10. | |
use that for? -- OBE. We have not made our mind up yet but we will | :05:11. | :05:16. | |
spend it in the city centre. On motorists on bus passengers? It | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
might be an improving areas for the whole residence of the city. It | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
would be a delight for me if nobody drove through that. Even when in it | :05:27. | :05:31. | |
is bringing you in over a ?1 million? It is not about the money. | :05:32. | :05:36. | |
Is this a badge of honour? Do you go to parties and say, look at us, we | :05:37. | :05:41. | |
have got ?1 million for this? No, it is not like that at all. We had a | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
spike when we first introduced the gate, and that is quite normal. When | :05:46. | :05:51. | |
the BBC asked for the freedom of information request, we just happen | :05:52. | :06:03. | |
to be at the peak. For all I know another camera in another city which | :06:04. | :06:06. | |
is higher. I should say that the council says there has been a 56% | :06:07. | :06:09. | |
drop in the number of fines it has issued from that infamous Camara on | :06:10. | :06:12. | |
John Dobson Street in the last few months. Going forward, basic, people | :06:13. | :06:14. | |
are getting the message that the camera will snap them if they break | :06:15. | :06:20. | |
the rules. Are they doing that or are they staying away from the city? | :06:21. | :06:26. | |
The jury is very much out. Back to you. Thank you, Mark. | :06:27. | :06:30. | |
A coach travelling on the A1 caught fire this morning. | :06:31. | :06:33. | |
It happened around 9.30am near junction 63, | :06:34. | :06:35. | |
There were no passengers on board and the driver got off the vehicle | :06:36. | :06:42. | |
County Durham and Darlington Fire and Rescue Service say no-one | :06:43. | :06:46. | |
The incident caused lengthy tailbacks on the A1. | :06:47. | :06:51. | |
Durham Police have been judged the top performing police | :06:52. | :06:53. | |
force in the country, for the third year running. | :06:54. | :06:55. | |
43 forces in England and Wales were assessed | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
by Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary. | :06:59. | :07:00. | |
Durham Police was deemed 'outstanding' at preventing crime | :07:01. | :07:04. | |
All the region's other forces were given an overall 'good' rating. | :07:05. | :07:16. | |
An investigation is underway tonight after a man's body was found in a | :07:17. | :07:23. | |
wheelie bin in a back alley. Officers have not yet released the | :07:24. | :07:27. | |
name of the deceased but his family has been informed. A has been | :07:28. | :07:30. | |
arrested in connection with the death. -- a man has been arrested. | :07:31. | :07:34. | |
Police were called here to Northbourne Street in Gateshead | :07:35. | :07:38. | |
yesterday afternoon after receiving a report | :07:39. | :07:40. | |
expressing concern about a | :07:41. | :07:45. | |
Officers attended the scene and discovered a | :07:46. | :07:50. | |
They are treating the death as suspicious. | :07:51. | :07:54. | |
As you can see, the area has been cornered off. | :07:55. | :08:00. | |
A 64-year-old man has been arrested in relation to the discovery. | :08:01. | :08:03. | |
He remains in police custody tonight. | :08:04. | :08:04. | |
A postmortem examination is currently | :08:05. | :08:06. | |
underway on the victim's body to establish his identity | :08:07. | :08:08. | |
Police have stepped up their presence in the area to | :08:09. | :08:11. | |
I have been told that the cordon will remain | :08:12. | :08:15. | |
A man from North Yorkshire has become only the fourth person | :08:16. | :08:23. | |
in the world to survive a pioneering multiple organ transplant. | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
Adam Alderson, from Preston-under-Scar near Leyburn, | :08:28. | :08:30. | |
underwent a 17 hour operation to replace several organs, | :08:31. | :08:32. | |
He's now recovered and is planning a wedding and a fundraising trip | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
At his worst, Adam was told nothing more could be done and he was sent | :08:38. | :08:54. | |
for end of life care. He was determined not to die at the age of | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
36. He heard about pioneering surgery carried out on the Bob a | :08:59. | :09:06. | |
player. Steve died just weeks later. The same operation was the last | :09:07. | :09:10. | |
chance for Adam. I did not know how long I would have left to live. It | :09:11. | :09:15. | |
was a difficult question to ask but it was as little as two years. | :09:16. | :09:22. | |
Refusing to give up, being stubborn Yorkshireman I am, I turn to the | :09:23. | :09:28. | |
Internet and I followed a guide, Steve Prescott, former England rugby | :09:29. | :09:32. | |
player, Rugby League, who had the same disease as me and one of four | :09:33. | :09:37. | |
people in the world to have gone through this and done very well. The | :09:38. | :09:42. | |
17 hour operation meant 30 people working shifts and the removal of | :09:43. | :09:50. | |
Adam 's stomach, gall bladder, pancreas, appendix and spleen. He is | :09:51. | :09:59. | |
forever grateful to the donor. The reality is somebody has died for me | :10:00. | :10:05. | |
to survive. That is easy to forget and we must thank people that do | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
this selfless act of becoming a donor and I am now back to work full | :10:10. | :10:16. | |
time, eating and drinking as normal. Having a really good social life and | :10:17. | :10:20. | |
living life and enjoying life. That is all thanks to the medical team | :10:21. | :10:26. | |
that believed in me and the procedure. Obviously, my partner, my | :10:27. | :10:32. | |
fiancee, Laura. We are getting married in May this year, I could | :10:33. | :10:36. | |
not have done this without her. She is the most incredible woman. She | :10:37. | :10:40. | |
has been with me at every step of the way. Now Adam is ticking on a | :10:41. | :10:48. | |
gruelling cross rally to raise money for charity. It is a 15,000 mile | :10:49. | :10:55. | |
trek through Europe and into Asia. This Jimmy has seen better days but | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
we are going to get it through. That smack chimney. There are dangers if | :11:00. | :11:10. | |
I get into trouble medically. Adam will be embarking on his next big | :11:11. | :11:17. | |
challenge on July 15. -- this chimney has seen better days. | :11:18. | :11:18. | |
Incredible. 11 towns and cities, | :11:19. | :11:19. | |
including Sunderland, have now put their names forward | :11:20. | :11:22. | |
to become UK City Joining Sunderland on the list | :11:23. | :11:25. | |
are places including Perth, Hereford, Warrington, | :11:26. | :11:28. | |
Portsmouth, Swansea A short list will be announced | :11:29. | :11:29. | |
in July, and the winning The Heritage Lottery Fund has | :11:30. | :11:33. | |
pledged to give the winner Nearly 1,500 troops, | :11:34. | :11:36. | |
including some from France, Denmark and other European countries | :11:37. | :11:43. | |
have been taking part in a major military training exercise | :11:44. | :11:46. | |
at Otterburn in Northumberland. Soldiers from members | :11:47. | :11:49. | |
of Nato are learning how to work best together, | :11:50. | :11:59. | |
should conflict ever break out. Mark McAlindon spent the day | :12:00. | :12:02. | |
watching the Royal Artillery An exercise it might have been. This | :12:03. | :12:12. | |
was nor drama. Emergency and adrenaline in a live firing | :12:13. | :12:17. | |
environment. It is really important for us to be able to train with | :12:18. | :12:21. | |
technology these days we can simulate a lot of our training, but | :12:22. | :12:26. | |
it is really important to bring all of those assets together and train | :12:27. | :12:31. | |
as we would fight. Of course, it tests another level of convocations | :12:32. | :12:35. | |
and challenges us in ways we would not get if we were sat in the class | :12:36. | :12:46. | |
doing it. -- level of complications. The purpose is for countries | :12:47. | :12:50. | |
belonging to Nato to train their trips to work together better, | :12:51. | :12:54. | |
should be ever be needed. It included reservists from the | :12:55. | :12:58. | |
north-east, too. You have to have that balance between civilian life | :12:59. | :13:03. | |
and being a reserve as well. You have to have that fighting balance. | :13:04. | :13:08. | |
There are a lot of the boys who are really good at supporting the | :13:09. | :13:12. | |
reserves. You really have to keep on top of the training. With being a | :13:13. | :13:17. | |
reserve, you are not always there. Exercise like this is massively | :13:18. | :13:22. | |
important for us. The army trains here in Northumberland, as well as | :13:23. | :13:26. | |
Canada and Kenya. Modern technology means it is not all out on the | :13:27. | :13:31. | |
range. These guys might look like they are playing computer war games | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
but this is the cutting edge of British Army training. It is a | :13:36. | :13:38. | |
digital environment that allows them to get as close to real battlefield | :13:39. | :13:43. | |
situations as possible. What we can give the soldiers that we cannot do | :13:44. | :13:48. | |
in the live environment is lots and lots of different capabilities, lots | :13:49. | :13:59. | |
of aircraft, lots of helicopters, lots of guns and rockets, in a way | :14:00. | :14:02. | |
that we simply would not be able to in space and time and within safety | :14:03. | :14:05. | |
restrictions. Some of these trips have spent 26 nights sleeping out on | :14:06. | :14:07. | |
the range, all part of maintaining a well-trained military. -- groups. | :14:08. | :14:12. | |
They've become known for preying on unsuspecting tourists enjoying | :14:13. | :14:14. | |
But now, the herring gull population in Scarborough and Whitby | :14:15. | :14:18. | |
Birds of prey have been introduced to scare the gulls away. | :14:19. | :14:22. | |
Some nests will be dismantled and eggs destroyed. | :14:23. | :14:24. | |
Our business correspondent Ian Reeve reports from Whitby. | :14:25. | :14:31. | |
Whitby is home to about 4000 herring gulls. | :14:32. | :14:37. | |
Yet, they no longer add to the charm of the town. | :14:38. | :14:40. | |
They are scavengers often swooping on tourists for food. | :14:41. | :14:42. | |
Hawks and falcans are being used to scare them away | :14:43. | :14:56. | |
from the town centre here | :14:57. | :14:58. | |
We have had issues of seagulls mugging people. | :14:59. | :15:00. | |
It has been an ongoing thing since about 2002. | :15:01. | :15:03. | |
Things are getting quite bad for people who visit our | :15:04. | :15:06. | |
We have worked a programme with them and they're going to come | :15:07. | :15:13. | |
across and fly these birds in the harbour areas and the areas | :15:14. | :15:16. | |
The birds of prey are supposed to be a deterrent, and not | :15:17. | :15:20. | |
If something was to take a liberty and get a bit close, it may well be | :15:21. | :15:29. | |
As you can see now, we've got birds out and there are not a | :15:30. | :15:36. | |
Jim, the Harris's hawk disrupted the bird population today. | :15:37. | :15:43. | |
Something welcomed at Michael's fish and chip restaurant. | :15:44. | :15:46. | |
We see them coming over the tops of people when | :15:47. | :15:49. | |
they have their fish and chip boxes and taking them | :15:50. | :15:56. | |
Sometimes they land on the hedge and take it off | :15:57. | :16:02. | |
or if they are on the wall and they have a food at the side of | :16:03. | :16:06. | |
them, they come and knock it off the wall. | :16:07. | :16:09. | |
We have to warn of the customers just to be careful of gulls. | :16:10. | :16:16. | |
The herring gulls' nests will also be dismantled and ecstasy are | :16:17. | :16:20. | |
Necessary, says the council, if man and bird are to live | :16:21. | :16:30. | |
How many kids want to grow up to be scientists these days? | :16:31. | :16:38. | |
Only 15% of ten to 14-year-olds have aspirations to go into science, | :16:39. | :16:42. | |
In response, the BBC's developed a campaign called | :16:43. | :16:46. | |
Terrific Scientific which aims to ignite interest | :16:47. | :16:47. | |
Damian O'Neil's been to a primary school in Newcastle | :16:48. | :16:51. | |
Once I've put it in, you can start to do the temperature. | :16:52. | :17:00. | |
The children are trying to determine which freezes | :17:01. | :17:02. | |
I have read that it freezes quicker when it | :17:03. | :17:09. | |
It came as a surprise to me that the hot one would be faster | :17:10. | :17:24. | |
than the cold one because the cold is more likely | :17:25. | :17:26. | |
Actually, hot was more likely to create a reaction. | :17:27. | :17:29. | |
To test the theory, the children are carrying out | :17:30. | :17:31. | |
I measure up to 225 millilitres of water. | :17:32. | :17:39. | |
Then I am going to use a thermometer to see how cold it is. | :17:40. | :17:42. | |
Do you think the cold water will freeze quicker | :17:43. | :17:57. | |
I personally think the cold water will freeze quicker. | :17:58. | :18:02. | |
OK, we have a cold and our warm water | :18:03. | :18:04. | |
80 minutes later, the water is frozen and the | :18:05. | :18:09. | |
We predicted that the cold water would freeze quicker | :18:10. | :18:18. | |
We were expecting the cold water to be | :18:19. | :18:21. | |
slightly colder, but it turned out the water | :18:22. | :18:28. | |
seemed to be colder when | :18:29. | :18:30. | |
There was a lot more ice in the warm water than the cold | :18:31. | :18:40. | |
It is the second lesson and a series of investigations that | :18:41. | :18:44. | |
children will be making up until the summer. | :18:45. | :18:46. | |
It is the case of enthusing children about science and giving | :18:47. | :18:48. | |
them that practical experience and also realising | :18:49. | :18:50. | |
You can find out why hot water freezes faster than cold water, | :18:51. | :18:55. | |
plus loads of other cool stuff, at... | :18:56. | :18:57. | |
I think really is some teams with the Magic winning formula. We do you | :18:58. | :19:14. | |
find those? -- where do you find those? | :19:15. | :19:15. | |
Let's start with football - and life isn't getting any | :19:16. | :19:17. | |
Lying just outside the Premier League relegation zone, | :19:18. | :19:20. | |
on goal difference only, Boro will now face Manchester City | :19:21. | :19:23. | |
After Huddersfield took an early lead against City in their fifth | :19:24. | :19:27. | |
round replay last night, Boro might have hoped a giant | :19:28. | :19:30. | |
Normal service was resumed after half an hour though, | :19:31. | :19:33. | |
when Leroy Sane equalised, and the floodgates duly opened. | :19:34. | :19:35. | |
City completed the 5-1 rout in injury time, | :19:36. | :19:37. | |
but Boro boss Aitor Karanka wasn't exactly glued to the action. | :19:38. | :19:40. | |
Did you watch the FA Cup game last night? | :19:41. | :19:42. | |
When you have the quality on the pitch, sometimes you can surprise. | :19:43. | :19:57. | |
so it's important because, especially after the cup and the | :19:58. | :20:07. | |
international break, we have two important games away. | :20:08. | :20:09. | |
It is always important to play at home. | :20:10. | :20:11. | |
Now what do former Newcastle boss Joe Harvey and the late, great, | :20:12. | :20:14. | |
Bill Shankly have in common with Cumbrian sports | :20:15. | :20:15. | |
Well, they're all ex-managers of Workington AFC, | :20:16. | :20:18. | |
a Football League club until 1977, currently battling | :20:19. | :20:20. | |
for a play-off place in the Evostick Premier Division. | :20:21. | :20:22. | |
John was only in charge for three matches, but he's | :20:23. | :20:25. | |
still regarded as a club legend for his 50 years in | :20:26. | :20:27. | |
From his early days as a cub reporter with Cumbrian Newspapers | :20:28. | :20:37. | |
to more recent times as a radio commentator with BBC Radio Cumbria, | :20:38. | :20:40. | |
He doesn't drive a car, so he's had to be adept at catching lifts | :20:41. | :20:56. | |
and using public transport to cover the length and bredth | :20:57. | :20:58. | |
of the country following his beloved Workington Reds. | :20:59. | :21:00. | |
Some news just in, one of my steward pals just tells me that one | :21:01. | :21:03. | |
of the Skelmersdale players has asked where the nearest | :21:04. | :21:06. | |
train station is because he says he had taken time off work to come | :21:07. | :21:09. | |
to Workington and was put on the bench. | :21:10. | :21:11. | |
He wasn't happy and now he's gone home. | :21:12. | :21:13. | |
Walshie's words in print and over the airwaves have kept generations | :21:14. | :21:15. | |
of football fans in touch with his boyhood club. | :21:16. | :21:18. | |
This is a scrapbook that was put together by one of the directors | :21:19. | :21:21. | |
This is the Star office in Oxford Street, Workington. | :21:22. | :21:29. | |
That is the first match report, running | :21:30. | :21:33. | |
We lost the first game 2-0 to Bristol Rovers. | :21:34. | :21:41. | |
Really, a lot of the 50 years have been similar sort of results. | :21:42. | :21:45. | |
That's why I think the high points have got | :21:46. | :21:47. | |
be savoured because you enjoy them so much because there have been some | :21:48. | :21:50. | |
When I first started, you had to knock on the | :21:51. | :22:01. | |
changing room door and get the manager or his assistant to give | :22:02. | :22:05. | |
you the team changes, the Christian names. | :22:06. | :22:07. | |
There was one particular manager, Roy Bentley - | :22:08. | :22:09. | |
ex England and Chelsea, he proceeded to give all | :22:10. | :22:11. | |
the wrong Christian names to his team. | :22:12. | :22:13. | |
I remember the senior reporter in the box | :22:14. | :22:15. | |
was absolutely livid with | :22:16. | :22:16. | |
him and he described him as Dick Bentley, | :22:17. | :22:18. | |
who was a well-known comedian of the time. | :22:19. | :22:23. | |
Despite losing a chairman, manager, and two key players this season | :22:24. | :22:25. | |
the Reds took on bottom club Skelmersdale knowing victory | :22:26. | :22:27. | |
Chance for Skelmersdale into the area. | :22:28. | :22:37. | |
The ball broke through into the area. | :22:38. | :22:42. | |
And this is when you know it's not going to be your night. | :22:43. | :22:50. | |
That just sums up Workington's night. | :22:51. | :23:03. | |
Difficult job coming up after you've lambasted your team | :23:04. | :23:06. | |
after a performance like that - you've got to come and be civil | :23:07. | :23:09. | |
Measured views right after a game like that, it's | :23:10. | :23:15. | |
I know that they will respond in the right way. | :23:16. | :23:20. | |
We will put it behind us and put a positive | :23:21. | :23:23. | |
fans deserve it to see a more spirited performance that they know | :23:24. | :23:28. | |
And as for our evergreen 70-year-old, if not another 50 years | :23:29. | :23:39. | |
Someone else who's just picked up an award is Newcastle Eagles' | :23:40. | :23:48. | |
He was presented to Prince William at Buckingham Palace today, | :23:49. | :23:54. | |
where he was made an MBE for his services to basketball. | :23:55. | :23:57. | |
The 43-year-old American is the most successful coach in the history | :23:58. | :24:00. | |
of the domestic game, with the club having picked up 24 | :24:01. | :24:03. | |
national titles in the 13 years he's been in charge. | :24:04. | :24:11. | |
What a lovely guy he is. A nice, big smile there. He was enjoying it. Now | :24:12. | :24:22. | |
it's time for the weather. Tonight, some fantastic pictures of the | :24:23. | :24:26. | |
Northern lights. Many of you spotted this last night. Thank you to our | :24:27. | :24:34. | |
Weather Watchers. Lovely green colours. This is stunning. Thank you | :24:35. | :24:41. | |
very much for that, too. This one was sent in by Ian this morning. | :24:42. | :24:47. | |
Some lovely pictures. Tonight, there is still a chance of seeing the | :24:48. | :24:52. | |
aurora but too much cloud around. There will be some rain at times and | :24:53. | :24:57. | |
quite breezy as well. The breezy day today but that will die down a bit | :24:58. | :25:02. | |
as we head into the night. Some outbreaks of rain in parts of | :25:03. | :25:06. | |
Cumbria and north Northumberland as well. On the whole, a dry night with | :25:07. | :25:11. | |
clear spells here and there. Temperatures dropping down to three | :25:12. | :25:17. | |
Celsius. Friday morning, that area of rain across northern parts but | :25:18. | :25:21. | |
elsewhere, dry and bright start the morning. If your amount of cloud | :25:22. | :25:27. | |
around but it is not going to last. Friday afternoon, this area of rain | :25:28. | :25:30. | |
pitching in from the south. Let's take a look at things at three | :25:31. | :25:36. | |
o'clock on Friday. Cumbria look stride but some sunny spells | :25:37. | :25:41. | |
breaking through the crowd. Temperatures of nine Celsius. More | :25:42. | :25:45. | |
in the way of cloud. Temperatures around seven or eight Celsius. | :25:46. | :25:49. | |
Fairly light and gentle breeze from the east. That rain does push in | :25:50. | :25:54. | |
into Friday night. Eventually it will spread to all parts. Light and | :25:55. | :26:00. | |
patchy at first but becoming more persistent and heavier. That breeze | :26:01. | :26:03. | |
picking up during the night. Temperatures dropping down to five | :26:04. | :26:08. | |
Celsius. Saturday is a day where we will see rain. Initially through | :26:09. | :26:13. | |
northern parts during the morning. There will be a brief respite where | :26:14. | :26:16. | |
we see some fairly dry weather with a lot of cloud around. The rain | :26:17. | :26:23. | |
moves in later on in the day. The rain is on and off in temperatures | :26:24. | :26:28. | |
up to nine Celsius. The breeze picking up through Saturday. Moving | :26:29. | :26:31. | |
into Sunday and it looks like the better day of the weekend. Quite a | :26:32. | :26:36. | |
lot of cloud around and the temperature is not higher than eight | :26:37. | :26:41. | |
Celsius. Outbreaks of rain and we keep that unsettled theme with our | :26:42. | :26:45. | |
weather as we head into next week. Thank you very much. That is your | :26:46. | :26:50. | |
gardening plans off this Saturday. I will leave it until Sunday instead. | :26:51. | :26:57. | |
That is it from us tonight. Good night. | :26:58. | :27:19. | |
