Welcome to Monday's Look North. Tonight, new hope for finding Ben | :00:09. | :00:13. | |
Needham. His mother believes he will be found alive after the discovery | :00:14. | :00:17. | |
of a young girl on a gypsy site in Greece. | :00:18. | :00:22. | |
I do believe he is out there and it is just a matter of time. With this | :00:23. | :00:28. | |
press coverage we have had in the UK and in Greece, we could get a | :00:29. | :00:33. | |
breakthrough now and get some more information. | :00:34. | :00:35. | |
We'll hear more from Ben's mother Kerry later in the programme. Also | :00:36. | :00:37. | |
tonight. A 25`year`old man's held by police | :00:38. | :00:41. | |
in York after the murder of a woman in the city last night. | :00:42. | :00:45. | |
More than 6,000 runners take part in the first Yorkshire Marathon in | :00:46. | :00:51. | |
memory of Jane Tomlinson. In sport, Sheffield United still | :00:52. | :00:54. | |
want Nigel Clough as manager, but are no closer to a deal. | :00:55. | :00:58. | |
And, we'll have the key action from the weekend's football, including | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
one of the best individual goals you'll see all season, which helped | :01:02. | :01:07. | |
Barnsley to victory. This is the same this afternoon, | :01:08. | :01:14. | |
once the morning rain cleared, it brightened up nicely. I will have | :01:15. | :01:15. | |
the details later. Hello, thank you for joining us. | :01:16. | :01:29. | |
First tonight, the mother of missing Sheffield toddler Ben Needham has | :01:30. | :01:32. | |
told Look North she believes it's only a matter of time before he's | :01:33. | :01:35. | |
found alive. It follows the discovery of a four`year`old girl at | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
a gypsy camp in Greece. Ben, who is from Sheffield, was just 21 months | :01:40. | :01:42. | |
old when he vanished on the island of Kos in 1991. In the latest | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
incident, the girl, known only as Maria, was abducted and found at a | :01:47. | :01:49. | |
camp between Farsala and Larissa. Some witnesses claim to have seen | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
Ben in that area shortly after he disappeared. In a moment, we'll hear | :01:54. | :01:57. | |
from Kerry, but first, here's our reporter, Emma Glasbey. | :01:58. | :02:05. | |
Missing for more than two decades, but after years of appeals, there | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
could be new hope for the family of Ben Needham, from Sheffield. He | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
disappeared on the Greek island of costs when he was just 21 months | :02:15. | :02:20. | |
old. His mother always believed he may have been abducted by gypsies. | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
Now, the search for him could have fresh momentum. This is the Roma | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
camp in central Greece where a blonde girl known as Maria was | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
discovered. Tests confirm she has no DNA link to the couple she was | :02:36. | :02:38. | |
living with. The camp is near Larisa, and every that has been | :02:39. | :02:44. | |
linked to Ben's disappearance. There have been sightings of blonde | :02:45. | :02:50. | |
haired, blue`eyed children, but the police never wanted to go in there, | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
so it has given us hope that the authorities will go in and | :02:55. | :02:59. | |
investigate the sightings that we had over the years. Now, they are | :03:00. | :03:06. | |
not scared to go in there, so this will open some doors, hopefully, and | :03:07. | :03:12. | |
get something done. Roma experts say the community is often involved in | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
illicit activity, but the case of Maria has shocked them. It is very | :03:17. | :03:24. | |
unusual, but until now, we have seen scores of Roma families selling | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
newborn children to Greek families that do not have children and cannot | :03:30. | :03:35. | |
adopt because of the Greek law. Those Roma families came from dog | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
area and Romain yet, most of them. This is the first case that we know | :03:41. | :03:46. | |
where a child lives for years in a Roma family. A year ago, police | :03:47. | :03:53. | |
officers searched the land. South Yorkshire police say no | :03:54. | :03:55. | |
investigation is being carried out by them in light of this recent | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
case. Ben's family remained certain he will be found. Ben's mother Kerry | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
has always thought his abduction was gypsy`related. | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
I spoke to her earlier this afternoon and asked Kerry Needham | :04:10. | :04:12. | |
what she first thought when she'd seen the footage. | :04:13. | :04:19. | |
Mixed emotions for myself and all of my family. Extremely happy that this | :04:20. | :04:27. | |
girl has been saved from a life with gypsies and can be reunited with her | :04:28. | :04:32. | |
parents, but a lot of frustration and anger, because we have been | :04:33. | :04:38. | |
asking the Greek police to investigate the Gypsy theory, we | :04:39. | :04:41. | |
have had lots of information that Ben has been missing that he was | :04:42. | :04:46. | |
taken by gypsies and kept in the camp, and the police have insisted | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
that gypsies do not steal children because they have enough of their | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
own and it would be impossible to keep a blonde haired, blue`eyed | :04:55. | :04:58. | |
child within these encampment. Now Maria has been found, it puts the | :04:59. | :05:05. | |
theory to bed again, we want the investigation regarding the gypsies | :05:06. | :05:10. | |
investigated again now. You now want your family's DNA to be tested as | :05:11. | :05:18. | |
part of the investigation, why? It has been blown out of proportion by | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
the Greek media, this part of it. I was asked if I thought that Maria | :05:25. | :05:27. | |
bore any resemblance to myself or Ben. I said, apart from having | :05:28. | :05:34. | |
blonde and blue eyes, I do not know, I find it unlikely, but it would not | :05:35. | :05:39. | |
hurt to do a DNA test just in case she could be Ben's child. I have not | :05:40. | :05:45. | |
insisted there be a DNA test, I just said it would not hurt, just to be | :05:46. | :05:52. | |
on the safe side. These Roma camps, did they feature in 1991 as part of | :05:53. | :05:59. | |
the police investigation? No, not in the particular area where Maria was | :06:00. | :06:07. | |
found. It was in Larisa, the main town, and there are many other | :06:08. | :06:13. | |
little towns within it. We have had alleged sightings and information in | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
Larisa that then could have been in the Gypsy divinity there. Do you | :06:19. | :06:26. | |
think he is still alive? Absolutely. I do believe he is out there, and it | :06:27. | :06:30. | |
is just a matter of time now, with this massive press coverage we have | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
had, I believe we could get a breakthrough and get some more | :06:36. | :06:38. | |
information. South Yorkshire Police said they are not linking the two | :06:39. | :06:44. | |
investigations, ID satisfied? That is fine, we are not saying there is | :06:45. | :06:49. | |
a link or that the Gypsy people that had Maria took them as well. All we | :06:50. | :06:54. | |
are doing is putting the pieces together, and we have had | :06:55. | :06:58. | |
information about them being with gypsies in Larisa and the | :06:59. | :07:11. | |
surrounding areas. Corrie `` we just want the Gypsy investigation opened | :07:12. | :07:13. | |
up again and gone through more thoroughly. | :07:14. | :07:20. | |
We keep our fingers crossed. Later on Look North. | :07:21. | :07:22. | |
Put through their paces. We're given access to the South | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
Yorkshire Police training centre as controversial fitness tests come | :07:26. | :07:28. | |
into force. Tonight, a man remains in police | :07:29. | :07:31. | |
custody on suspicion of the murder of a 32`year`old woman in York. A | :07:32. | :07:35. | |
second woman, aged 23, is in hospital with stab wounds following | :07:36. | :07:46. | |
the incident in the city last night. Still sealed off today, the murder | :07:47. | :07:50. | |
scene in York, police have been called to an apartment just before | :07:51. | :07:57. | |
8pm last night. A local woman was found dead at the scene. The younger | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
victim of the alleged double attack remains in York district Hospital, | :08:03. | :08:05. | |
where police are waiting to speak to her. Six and a half hours after | :08:06. | :08:10. | |
police were first alerted, the man was arrested in a flat here in | :08:11. | :08:17. | |
central York. He is being held on suspicion of murder and attempted | :08:18. | :08:23. | |
murder. It is understood the man may have been known to at least one of | :08:24. | :08:29. | |
the women. As police insisted it had been an isolated incident, their | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
enquiries were including the examining of CCTV cameras outside | :08:35. | :08:36. | |
the National Railway Museum around the corner from the scene of crime, | :08:37. | :08:43. | |
a modern set of apartments, where residents say the few known the | :08:44. | :08:48. | |
neighbours. It is a transient population, we do not know each | :08:49. | :08:53. | |
other. It is a quiet shriek, you never hear anything going on. Such a | :08:54. | :08:59. | |
lovely area, the flats look so lovely. Tonight, the survivor | :09:00. | :09:05. | |
remains in a stable condition. Police say despite the arrest of the | :09:06. | :09:08. | |
suspect, they still need more information from anyone who can help | :09:09. | :09:11. | |
them build up the defence of what happened last night. | :09:12. | :09:17. | |
Some other news from around Yorkshire now. The family of Keith | :09:18. | :09:20. | |
West from Sheffield, who drowned saving a swimmer in trouble, have | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
returned home from Cyprus. Keith was on the island with his fiancee | :09:25. | :09:27. | |
Julie, finding a venue for their wedding next year. He's been | :09:28. | :09:32. | |
described as a hero after managing to rescue the older man from the sea | :09:33. | :09:36. | |
before being dragged back under by the current. | :09:37. | :09:38. | |
Ten people have been arrested and six people have been charged after | :09:39. | :09:41. | |
police officers were assaulted in Scarborough. They were kicked, | :09:42. | :09:44. | |
head`butted and spat at while trying to break up disorder around the town | :09:45. | :09:47. | |
early yesterday morning. Police say the incident raises questions about | :09:48. | :09:50. | |
the levels of drinking in the resort at weekends. | :09:51. | :09:52. | |
Leeds City Council's issued ten times as many fines for littering | :09:53. | :09:55. | |
since it began a zero`tolerance approach in April. The council's | :09:56. | :09:58. | |
employed enforcement officers from a private security firm to patrol the | :09:59. | :10:04. | |
streets. More than 1,300 fines have been issued in a five`month period, | :10:05. | :10:08. | |
compared to just 136 in the same period last year. | :10:09. | :10:14. | |
Now, police officers across Yorkshire are being subjected to a | :10:15. | :10:17. | |
controversial new fitness test. Some have failed the test, others have | :10:18. | :10:21. | |
been injured. If officers repeatedly fail it, they face being sacked. So, | :10:22. | :10:24. | |
how difficult is it? Our police officers are having to | :10:25. | :10:40. | |
swap their black boots for the trainers. Running up and down in a | :10:41. | :10:44. | |
gym in what the rent is different from jumping over fences, chasing | :10:45. | :10:48. | |
criminals, but now every police officer has two prove they are fit | :10:49. | :10:53. | |
enough to do their job. This test makes officers run faster the longer | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
it goes on. They have got to time their vans to the bleeps, three and | :10:58. | :11:01. | |
a half minutes of running in total. It is too tough for some, but others | :11:02. | :11:06. | |
want to push themselves. When I finished, I was out of breath. It is | :11:07. | :11:13. | |
a key part of the role. We are expected to catch criminals, and how | :11:14. | :11:17. | |
are you going to catch them if you do not have a certain level of the | :11:18. | :11:23. | |
this? Most officers are passing. In September, South Yorkshire posted | :11:24. | :11:28. | |
380, and only eight withdrew, a failure rate of 2%. The organisation | :11:29. | :11:34. | |
representing officers think the tests are a good idea, but they are | :11:35. | :11:36. | |
concerned everybody needs to meet the same standard. It has got to be | :11:37. | :11:45. | |
taken whether you are 18 or 55. Other countries discriminate and | :11:46. | :11:52. | |
give extra time to perform the test according to gender and age. We do | :11:53. | :11:57. | |
not agree with the method we are using at the moment, the title is | :11:58. | :12:02. | |
job`related fitness test, I have yet to see any officer have to do a shot | :12:03. | :12:08. | |
or one whilst out on the street in full kit, not many villains double | :12:09. | :12:13. | |
back on themselves. It is not the most gruelling challenge, but South | :12:14. | :12:17. | |
Yorkshire says people expect their officers to have a certain level of | :12:18. | :12:21. | |
the days. Even the chief constable has done the test, twice. What about | :12:22. | :12:26. | |
a lazy journalist? It starts pretty easily, just above walking pace. It | :12:27. | :12:33. | |
is a bit tougher. You are soon running faster, but the test does | :12:34. | :12:43. | |
not last long. That is it. It gets the heart going. I cannot imagine | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
wearing a full body kit, doing that every day. | :12:48. | :12:52. | |
Before 7pm. We'll have a round`up of the weekend's football action. | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
The Yorkshire Awards honour the county's finest, including garden | :12:57. | :12:58. | |
designer Chris Myers, who's now found countrywide fame. | :12:59. | :13:05. | |
And, 26 miles of endurance for the 6,000 runners of the first ever | :13:06. | :13:06. | |
Yorkshire Marathon. On to the sport now. Tanya's here, | :13:07. | :13:18. | |
and Sheffield United seem no nearer to getting a new manager. | :13:19. | :13:27. | |
It depends who you believe! Maybe, maybe not. Former Derby boss Nigel | :13:28. | :13:30. | |
Clough remains favourite for the job, but is still sorting out | :13:31. | :13:33. | |
compensation for himself and his staff with his former employers, and | :13:34. | :13:36. | |
we understand will sit tight until that happens. But on the pitch, the | :13:37. | :13:40. | |
Blades got their first win since the opening day of the season, lifting | :13:41. | :13:44. | |
them out of the League One relegation places. | :13:45. | :13:51. | |
The ball bounced Sheffield United's way for once when this header went | :13:52. | :13:58. | |
in off the post. Then, Port Vale's player was sent off, and it should | :13:59. | :14:03. | |
have been easy from then on. It was not, Port Vale got an equaliser | :14:04. | :14:08. | |
before half`time. Sheffield United only got back in front with a | :14:09. | :14:11. | |
quarter of an hour left. A very worthy winner. They are working hard | :14:12. | :14:17. | |
to get a manager in, and we just have to make it an easier | :14:18. | :14:21. | |
transition. For him to come in on the back of a couple of good results | :14:22. | :14:28. | |
is better. This is quality, Barnsley's player taking on six | :14:29. | :14:32. | |
defenders before scoring as good an individual goal as you will see all | :14:33. | :14:37. | |
season. The second one was less sophisticated but just as important, | :14:38. | :14:43. | |
a deflection. Barnsley hung on to beat Middlesbrough 3`2. They move | :14:44. | :14:50. | |
off the bottom of the league and go above Sheffield Wednesday. They were | :14:51. | :14:54. | |
helped out by a candidate for own goal of the season. Baptiste gave | :14:55. | :14:58. | |
the goal keeper no chance, a clinical finish! The teams were on | :14:59. | :15:05. | |
level after the red card. The referee did not pause for thought | :15:06. | :15:10. | |
before reaching for red. The match finished 1`1, Sheffield Wednesday | :15:11. | :15:13. | |
still without a league victory. Leeds United got back on track | :15:14. | :15:18. | |
yesterday. The Birmingham keeper went walkabout, and then two more | :15:19. | :15:27. | |
before half`time. Smith got his second after the break to make it | :15:28. | :15:31. | |
4`0, Leeds United climb to ninth place. | :15:32. | :15:36. | |
Huddersfield's Tom Sykes has become the World Superbike champion. His | :15:37. | :15:39. | |
third place in the first race in Jerez was enough to see him over the | :15:40. | :15:43. | |
line. It was an emotional victory for the 28`year`old after he missed | :15:44. | :15:47. | |
out on last year's title by half a point. He becomes just the fourth | :15:48. | :15:50. | |
British winner of the title, a list that of course includes Sheffield's | :15:51. | :15:52. | |
James Toseland. The England rugby league coach Steve | :15:53. | :15:55. | |
McNamara says his side underperformed and maybe took Italy | :15:56. | :15:58. | |
for granted after their shock defeat at the weekend. He was speaking at | :15:59. | :16:03. | |
the launch of the World Cup, which kicks off in Cardiff at the weekend, | :16:04. | :16:07. | |
with England facing the far greater challenge of Australia. Losing to | :16:08. | :16:11. | |
one of the rank outsiders in their final warm`up match wasn't ideal | :16:12. | :16:17. | |
preparation. We were not good in that game, we | :16:18. | :16:22. | |
are aware of that, the conditions were extremely tough. The main focus | :16:23. | :16:31. | |
was we did not prepare right. We did get it right at the end, and the | :16:32. | :16:36. | |
players did not perform as well as we would have expected. | :16:37. | :16:40. | |
It was a good weekend for the Sheffield Steelers, who picked up | :16:41. | :16:43. | |
two wins, including victory over top`of`the`table Belfast. They had | :16:44. | :16:46. | |
to come from behind, but goals from Stefan Meyer and Jonathan Phillips | :16:47. | :16:49. | |
secured the 2`1 win over the Giants. Frank Doyle was man of the match, | :16:50. | :16:52. | |
making two second`period penalty`shot saves. The Steelers are | :16:53. | :16:56. | |
up to third in the league, but have games in hand over Belfast and | :16:57. | :17:04. | |
Dundee above them. The goalkeeper was something else! | :17:05. | :17:08. | |
I have always thought they were absolutely bonkers! | :17:09. | :17:11. | |
On Friday night, the great and the good of Yorkshire came together to | :17:12. | :17:14. | |
celebrate some of the people that make our county what it is. The | :17:15. | :17:17. | |
Yorkshire Awards, now in their 25th year, were hosted by myself and | :17:18. | :17:23. | |
Harry in Leeds. Among the winners was triple amputee Craig Wood, a | :17:24. | :17:26. | |
soldier from Doncaster, and former Corrie actress Katherine Kelly. | :17:27. | :17:34. | |
The champagne was flowing on Friday night and for a very good reason. | :17:35. | :17:48. | |
The 25th annual Yorkshire of warts were held in Leeds, celebrating | :17:49. | :17:51. | |
people from our region who have done great thing for their home county. | :17:52. | :17:57. | |

year's floods. Actor and comedian Billy Pierce received the arts and | :18:13. | :18:21. | |
entertainment award. And Sue Smith added the Yorkshire sport award to | :18:22. | :18:26. | |
her list of achievements. It is all systems go, everybody works hard. We | :18:27. | :18:31. | |
are all very keen to win. The business and enterprise award went | :18:32. | :18:36. | |
to Morrisons. The lifetime achievement award was given to Linda | :18:37. | :18:41. | |
pollard, chairman of Leeds Teaching Hospitals and the former pro`Vice | :18:42. | :18:48. | |
Chancellor of Leeds University. I will say to anybody who works with | :18:49. | :18:54. | |
me, do not say you will do anything if you are in doubt, you have to | :18:55. | :18:59. | |
deliver, and your reputation is built on delivery. A statement true | :19:00. | :19:04. | |
of our next winner, former Coronation Street actress Katherine | :19:05. | :19:07. | |
Kelly. Comedy starring in the period drama Mr Selfridge. 2013's Yorkshire | :19:08. | :19:16. | |
woman of the year. I feel like I am so lucky to do something that I love | :19:17. | :19:21. | |
so much. Yorkshire man of the year also looks rather familiar. Harry | :19:22. | :19:25. | |
Gration, massive congratulations, we love you. Chris Myers took home the | :19:26. | :19:35. | |
Countryside Award. But it was the special award which received a | :19:36. | :19:40. | |
standing ovation. Going to soldier and triple amputee Craig Wood, from | :19:41. | :19:46. | |
Doncaster. The close network of Yorkshire, you are all clapping, | :19:47. | :19:51. | |
thank you very much. Well, another of the award winners | :19:52. | :19:55. | |
is with us now. Chris Myers won the Countryside Award. They do not come | :19:56. | :20:02. | |
much more Yorkshire than you. Do you reckon! In the peace that we | :20:03. | :20:09. | |
watched, you said, no way! You were talking about meadows. I got a phone | :20:10. | :20:14. | |
call from the Yorkshire Dales trust, 90% of our Yorkshire Dales, the wild | :20:15. | :20:25. | |
flowers, have gone. I need to help! The trophy is a beautiful ball, how | :20:26. | :20:31. | |
did you feel? It seems bonkers. When I am out in the countryside, I see | :20:32. | :20:35. | |
so many people that love the place, just like I do. I have got an award | :20:36. | :20:40. | |
for living the Yorkshire countryside! I am lucky, through the | :20:41. | :20:44. | |
show gardens I produce and through the TV show that I did, I have had | :20:45. | :20:49. | |
the opportunity to shout about how gorgeous Yorkshire is. We can see | :20:50. | :20:57. | |
some of your programme. Mother nature was like an extra member of | :20:58. | :21:02. | |
the family, was she? Yes, we went up onto the moors and picked Bill Bruce | :21:03. | :21:06. | |
in the summer holidays, something to do with the kids, and then have jam | :21:07. | :21:14. | |
making and pie making sessions. Nobody has planted the berries, they | :21:15. | :21:17. | |
are just growing, doing their own thing. You get back home, we had a | :21:18. | :21:23. | |
little plot in the garden and we would have competitions, Roman | :21:24. | :21:27. | |
strawberries and vegetables. We have always been into it. You had the | :21:28. | :21:35. | |
chance to trade elsewhere, but you always stayed true to Yorkshire, and | :21:36. | :21:40. | |
you like coming back? It is where I was born, I have spent all my life, | :21:41. | :21:44. | |
especially out in the countryside, so it is in death. Whenever I go to | :21:45. | :21:53. | |
a big city, I am like, I need to go home! You have created high profile | :21:54. | :21:56. | |
gardens, including full Boris Johnson. You managed to sneak a lot | :21:57. | :22:01. | |
of Yorkshire in. What was his reaction? He thought it was a bit | :22:02. | :22:08. | |
messy! There were three of us, and mine were supposed to be a natural | :22:09. | :22:11. | |
environment with things that you could eat and grow. He was a bit | :22:12. | :22:18. | |
like, this is just a lot of wheat! A lot of people react like that, but | :22:19. | :22:21. | |
some people will say, that reminds me of home! You know they are from | :22:22. | :22:28. | |
Yorkshire! They love to see something that reminds them of home. | :22:29. | :22:33. | |
We are really proud of you, congratulations, you really deserve | :22:34. | :22:34. | |
it. And if you want to see a full list | :22:35. | :22:38. | |

Now, we've had marathons in Yorkshire's major cities for many | :22:45. | :22:46. | |
years, but never one called the Yorkshire Marathon. Well, all that | :22:47. | :22:50. | |
changed in York yesterday, and more than 6,000 people took part. The | :22:51. | :22:54. | |
event was in memory of Jane Tomlinson, who raised nearly ?2 | :22:55. | :22:57. | |
million for charity while she was suffering from cancer. Yesterday's | :22:58. | :23:00. | |
race looks set to do the same. Here's a look back at the day. | :23:01. | :23:08. | |
it is amazing, the feedback has been phenomenal, everything we could have | :23:09. | :23:41. | |
hoped for, and a million times more. Normally, we do events, and it is | :23:42. | :24:21. | |
thousands, but this time, it will be over a million, and probably 2 | :24:22. | :24:27. | |
million. Come on, Harry! Are you all right? Yes, I do? No! Well done, | :24:28. | :24:37. | |
Harry! First Yorkshire Marathon, first time in York, four Mike and | :24:38. | :24:43. | |
Jane, I am glad I have done it. I wanted to put an event on that | :24:44. | :24:46. | |
Yorkshire could be proud of, and people could sit back and think, I | :24:47. | :24:48. | |
want to do that one day. I went down to York Minster and I | :24:49. | :25:03. | |
watched them, and Harry was like a racing snake! It gave me goose | :25:04. | :25:08. | |
bumps, watching that. Next year, signing up? | :25:09. | :25:12. | |
Maybe just a bit of it! Probably not! I have got a couple of pictures | :25:13. | :25:23. | |
to start us off. The first one is sent from York. This is what it | :25:24. | :25:30. | |
looked like today, very bleak, lots of rain, but it brightened up. This | :25:31. | :25:36. | |
was after a shower yesterday. We had some sharp showers. You can keep | :25:37. | :25:40. | |
your pictures coming in. You can also tweak me. As we go | :25:41. | :25:53. | |
through into the next couple of days, it will stay mild, it will be | :25:54. | :25:59. | |
windy and unsettled. The air is holding a lot of moisture. A lot of | :26:00. | :26:05. | |
rain came up from the south`west, fairly heavy and persistent bursts, | :26:06. | :26:09. | |
or that brightened up quite nicely for some of us. One or two showers | :26:10. | :26:16. | |
in places. Overnight, we are looking out for this band of rain. Some | :26:17. | :26:20. | |
heavy spells of rain into the early hours of tomorrow morning. It will | :26:21. | :26:27. | |
be a mild night. We hold onto the breeze from the south. Tomorrow | :26:28. | :26:37. | |
morning, we hold onto the southerly air. There will be rain around at | :26:38. | :26:42. | |
times, especially through the morning. The wind will be | :26:43. | :26:49. | |
strengthening, but like today, it brightens up for some of us. | :26:50. | :27:00. | |
We are going to hold onto the mild air as we go through into the next | :27:01. | :27:06. | |
couple of days. As we go into Wednesday, blustery showers | :27:07. | :27:11. | |
overnight. It will hopefully turn try for a time on Thursday. | :27:12. | :27:16. | |
Not bad for the end of October. I will look forward to the delights of | :27:17. | :27:22. | |
the late bulletin. Well done if you are struggling with | :27:23. | :27:27. | |
aching limbs today, we are proud of you all. Good night. | :27:28. | :27:29. |
