Good evening. A highly respdcted heart surgeon has been sackdd from a | :00:00. | :01:19. | |
Birmingham hospital for sublitting incorrect data. Ian Wilson hs said | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
to have consistently under`reported the amount of time patients spent | :01:23. | :01:25. | |
with their heart stopped on a by`pass machine. But the spdcialist | :01:26. | :01:28. | |
is now working again, under supervision, at New Cross Hospital | :01:29. | :01:32. | |
in Wolverhampton. Our Health Correspondent, Michele Padu`no, has | :01:33. | :01:36. | |
this exclusive report. In 2008, having saved the lhfe of | :01:37. | :01:39. | |
this young mother, Ian Wilson was being celebrated. But the strgeon, | :01:40. | :01:44. | |
seen here on the right, has now been sacked from his job at the Pueen | :01:45. | :01:47. | |
Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham. The BBC understands that thd | :01:48. | :01:49. | |
hospital began a routine investigation which was triggered | :01:50. | :01:52. | |
automatically as a result of death rates. Whilst undergoing he`rt | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
surgery, patients have their heart stopped and they are placed on a | :01:57. | :02:04. | |
machine which circulates thd blood. I understand that an investhgation | :02:05. | :02:07. | |
by the Queen Elizabeth Hosphtal found that Mr Wilson had bedn under | :02:08. | :02:10. | |
reporting the amount of timd his patients had spent on bypass since | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
2006 and in one case by up to an hour". The longer a patient spends | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
on a heart`lung bypass machhne, the higher the potential risk of | :02:19. | :02:20. | |
complications or even death, academic studies have shown. | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
However, Mr Wilson's dismissal is understood to relate to concerns | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
about issues of trust and is not said to reflect upon his abhlity as | :02:29. | :02:33. | |
a surgeon. The General Medical Council has made an order pdnding | :02:34. | :02:35. | |
further investigations which stops him from doing private practice | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
forces him to notify them if he applies for a job abroad and means | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
he can only work in the NHS under supervision pending those | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
investigations. New Cross Hospital in Wolverhampton has employdd him | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
under supervision in accord`nce with the GMC's position whilst it | :02:51. | :02:58. | |
investigates the matter. He is here to be skilled, to return to | :02:59. | :03:05. | |
practice, so I have got no knowledge of whatever conduct issues there | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
were with a previous employdr. I have discussed this with a number of | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
people in this organisation, and we do not have any concerns about his | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
clinical practice. Mr Wilson did not wish to comment. The BBC understands | :03:19. | :03:22. | |
he plans to challenge his dhsmissal at an employment tribunal. Great to | :03:23. | :03:31. | |
have you with us, plenty more coming, including? What it leans for | :03:32. | :03:37. | |
Wolves fans as they celebrate promotion. | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
The best`known Muslim leader in the Midlands has died at the agd of 90. | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
Mohammed Naseem headed Birmhngham's Central Mosque, which he helped | :03:46. | :03:47. | |
establish. Our reporter Lindsay Doyle is at the Mosque now. He made | :03:48. | :03:54. | |
quite an impact on Birmingh`m, didn't he? He certainly did, Dr | :03:55. | :04:03. | |
Naseem was borrowing in Indha `` born in India, he trained as a GP, | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
worked as a doctor for many years in Birmingham. He was the home affairs | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
spokesperson for the Islamic party in Britain. He had a keen interest | :04:13. | :04:16. | |
in politics, he stood for the Respect party when the 2005 general | :04:17. | :04:22. | |
election. He was sometimes ` controversial figure, not afraid to | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
clash swords with Tony Blair. But much loved by many Muslims hn the | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
region. The mosque announced his death on the Facebook page this | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
morning, and all tributes h`ve been made. I turned to him on evdry issue | :04:35. | :04:42. | |
in my life, personally. And I was able to seek advice from hil on | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
those matters. But more than a personal loss, his loss to the | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
Muslim community in the citx and in the whole of the country is | :04:52. | :04:57. | |
irreplaceable. I don't think this vacuum can be filled by anybody | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
Birmingham Central Mosque is one of the largest in the country. How big | :05:03. | :05:08. | |
a part to deeply in setting it up? He was a key figure in setthng it | :05:09. | :05:14. | |
up. It was an idea first mooted in the 1950s, finally opening hn the | :05:15. | :05:18. | |
1970s. It was quite disorganised at the time, disagreements over the | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
design, and Dr Naseem was credited with bringing compromise and | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
organisational skills. Over the years, the mosque has featured so | :05:28. | :05:32. | |
highly, not just in Birmingham, but across the country. Interestingly, | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
it is the only Mosque in thd world which is opened `` has opendd | :05:36. | :05:43. | |
condolence books to non`Muslims What happens to leadership there? | :05:44. | :05:49. | |
The trustees are meeting tonight to finalise arrangements for Dr | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
Naseem's funeral. The funer`l will happen at Handsworth Cemetery at 4pm | :05:55. | :06:01. | |
on Thursday. It will be somdtime before they meet vote for a new | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
leader, out of respect, bec`use this is a community at the moment in | :06:06. | :06:13. | |
mourning. The Transport Secretary has said | :06:14. | :06:16. | |
he's confident the high spedd rail project HS2 will go ahead. Patrick | :06:17. | :06:19. | |
McLoughlin was visiting New Street Station in Birmingham which is | :06:20. | :06:22. | |
undergoing a ?600 million redevelopment. He said both the New | :06:23. | :06:25. | |
Street project and the high speed route linking London to the Midlands | :06:26. | :06:28. | |
would enable Birmingham to compete against other cities, and hdlp cope | :06:29. | :06:31. | |
with growing passenger numbdrs. Cath Mackie reports. | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
His train was on time and the Transport Secretary arrived at | :06:35. | :06:36. | |
Birmingham's New Street Station looking, well, positively glowing. | :06:37. | :06:41. | |
The safety suit was for a tour of the building work which has reached | :06:42. | :06:48. | |
the half way stage. I have tsed bringing station before any of this | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
work started. What we're seding is a huge transformation of Birmhngham | :06:53. | :06:55. | |
New Street Station. Passengdrs came and went as normal as Patrick | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
McLoughlin entered the world hidden from view. Around 1,200 workers were | :06:59. | :07:01. | |
here today. Teams work around the clock. The site when completed will | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
be five times bigger than the concourse at London Euston. I'm | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
standing on the old roof of New Street Station. This will bd | :07:10. | :07:12. | |
demolished to make way for this enormous atrium. It's only standing | :07:13. | :07:16. | |
here you get a sense of scale. It's the size of a football pitch. It | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
will be covered in the type of see through air cushions we've seen at | :07:21. | :07:23. | |
the Eden Project in Cornwall, and it will flood the concourse with light. | :07:24. | :07:31. | |
We have got a huge amount of drawings on the system. It hs a lot | :07:32. | :07:35. | |
to work on, but we break it down into sections. But there's | :07:36. | :07:38. | |
controversy on the horizon. Nearby is the site chosen for the HS2 | :07:39. | :07:41. | |
station linking the Midlands to London. Mr McLoughlin says the city | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
needs both developments. 20 years ago, there were 750 million | :07:46. | :07:50. | |
passenger journeys a year. Last year, there was 1.5 billion | :07:51. | :07:54. | |
passenger journeys a year throughout the United Kingdom. That is what we | :07:55. | :07:59. | |
have got to address. We'll HS2 happen? I think it will happen, it | :08:00. | :08:06. | |
is going to be vitally important for this region and other regions all | :08:07. | :08:08. | |
over the country. The argumdnts over HS2 continue to run whilst the | :08:09. | :08:11. | |
redeveloped New Street Stathon should be completed next ye`r. | :08:12. | :08:23. | |
The Labour MP Khalid Mahmood is calling for a single enquirx into | :08:24. | :08:26. | |
the alleged Trojan Horse plot in Birmingham schools. Three sdparate | :08:27. | :08:28. | |
investigations by the Government, Ofsted and Birmingham City Council | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
have been launched to look hnto the claims that hardline Muslims are | :08:33. | :08:35. | |
trying to take over schools in the city. Mr Mahmood has told the BBC he | :08:36. | :08:39. | |
feels this will only cause hncreased confusion. | :08:40. | :08:47. | |
A mental health nurse from Coventry is to be deported from Sri Lanka | :08:48. | :08:51. | |
because she has a tattoo of Buddha on her right arm. 37`year`old Naomi | :08:52. | :08:54. | |
Coleman was arrested at the airport in the capital Colombo. Relhgious | :08:55. | :08:57. | |
tattoos can be viewed as disrespectful in the strongly | :08:58. | :08:59. | |
Buddhist country. A man who drowned last week in the | :09:00. | :09:03. | |
lake at Walsall Arboretum h`s been named as 26`year`old Christopher | :09:04. | :09:05. | |
Mills. He was spotted getting into difficulties in the water on Tuesday | :09:06. | :09:08. | |
but the Emergency Services were unable to rescue him. His ddath | :09:09. | :09:11. | |
isn't being treated as susphcious but an investigation is continuing. | :09:12. | :09:20. | |
Stephen Sutton, who's becomd nationally known for his battle | :09:21. | :09:23. | |
against incurable cancer, h`s posted a farewell to supporters on Facebook | :09:24. | :09:26. | |
as his health deteriorates. The 19`year`old from Burntwood hn | :09:27. | :09:29. | |
Staffordshire has raised more than ?500,000 for the Teenage Cancer | :09:30. | :09:32. | |
Trust. He was rushed to hospital over the weekend. In a mess`ge to | :09:33. | :09:35. | |
supporters, Stephen said "It's a final thumbs up from me. I think | :09:36. | :09:47. | |
this is just one hurdle too far . Stephen Sutton who visited ts here | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
at the BBC and talked to us on Midlands Today in January. | :09:52. | :09:54. | |
Our top story tonight: A he`rt surgeon who was sacked as operating | :09:55. | :09:58. | |
again at a hospital in Wolverhampton. The weather forecast | :09:59. | :10:04. | |
soon, and also tonight: I al at St Andrews where Birmingham City are up | :10:05. | :10:06. | |
for sale. How much would you pay for ` | :10:07. | :10:10. | |
football club who are close to relegation? | :10:11. | :10:16. | |
And a schoolboy Farmer tackling his GCSEs as well as tending to his | :10:17. | :10:32. | |
newborn lambs. There are clear signs tonight that | :10:33. | :10:36. | |
house sales are picking up `fter a long period of stagnation. Hn the | :10:37. | :10:39. | |
year to the end of February, prices in this region rose on aver`ge by | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
5%, although, in some hotspots such as Warwick and Leamington, that | :10:44. | :10:46. | |
figure's closer to 10%. And businesses are benefiting. One | :10:47. | :10:48. | |
removal firm in Worcester s`ys it's 15 years since it was last this | :10:49. | :10:51. | |
busy. Our reporter Joanne Writtle has been looking at the bricks and | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
mortar of the housing market. Homes going up in Worcester. | :10:56. | :10:57. | |
According to many experts another sign of increasing confidence and | :10:58. | :11:00. | |
optimism across the West Midlands. We are seeing a lot more activity, | :11:01. | :11:03. | |
particularly over the last 02 months. House prices are rising | :11:04. | :11:06. | |
again, although that is a consequence of lack of housds coming | :11:07. | :11:10. | |
onto the market, saw on the supply side it is driven. We have got more | :11:11. | :11:15. | |
buyers than properties available, so prices are rising. John Venn's been | :11:16. | :11:19. | |
in the removal business for 31 years, surviving the lean thmes and | :11:20. | :11:22. | |
now reaping the rewards of ` surge in sales. This year has been a | :11:23. | :11:31. | |
revelation because normally, January and February are absolutely dire. | :11:32. | :11:37. | |
But this continued in a big rush to Christmas and we were straight at it | :11:38. | :11:40. | |
in January, and fingers crossed it is continuing. This estate `gent in | :11:41. | :11:44. | |
Worcester sells homes at thd lower end of the market. He's seen a fall | :11:45. | :11:48. | |
in properties going to aucthon as homeowners become more confhdent | :11:49. | :11:50. | |
they can sell in the tradithonal way. But he's measured ` buxers need | :11:51. | :11:56. | |
to be realistic. Builders are building, first`time buyers are | :11:57. | :12:01. | |
coming back into the market, we are finding families are looking to be | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
more optimistic, which is great But common sense has to rain. Things may | :12:07. | :12:13. | |
be looking up, but if you ptt your house on the market, one thhng you | :12:14. | :12:17. | |
cannot tell is how long it will take to sell. This three`bedroom house in | :12:18. | :12:24. | |
Upton`upon`Severn has been on the market for a month. Owner Alison | :12:25. | :12:28. | |
Chivers put it up for sale three years after it failed to sell in | :12:29. | :12:31. | |
more difficult times. I am reasonably optimistic that H could | :12:32. | :12:35. | |
be one of the lucky ones, I could be waiting for months and months, at it | :12:36. | :12:39. | |
as a chance you take. Fingers crossed. | :12:40. | :12:46. | |
As we left Alison was waiting for a potential buyer. Her third viewing | :12:47. | :12:50. | |
in four weeks. I think I was hopelessly wrong with | :12:51. | :12:56. | |
my time check, it is eating 40 PM. You have been getting in totch about | :12:57. | :12:58. | |
the housing situation. Football fans across the region are | :12:59. | :13:32. | |
in for a nerve`wracking fin`le to the season. Wolves may have been | :13:33. | :13:35. | |
promoted as champions, congratulations to them, but for | :13:36. | :13:37. | |
Aston Villa, West Bromwich @lbion and Birmingham City there are still | :13:38. | :13:41. | |
relegation fears. Ian Winter is at St. Andrews for us this evening and | :13:42. | :13:44. | |
there could be plenty happening there off the field before too long. | :13:45. | :13:49. | |
Ian? Absolutely. It has been a season of pure chaos here at St | :13:50. | :13:53. | |
Andrews, North on and off the field. With only three games left to play, | :13:54. | :13:57. | |
the very real possibility of relegation from the championship to | :13:58. | :14:01. | |
League one. That is not a great selling point for any potential | :14:02. | :14:05. | |
buyers. Steve McCarthy will be watching the outcome of tonhght s | :14:06. | :14:11. | |
meeting in Hong Kong. Absolttely. It is really ironic, this meethng with | :14:12. | :14:17. | |
all its importance, it has been on and off, we need some transparency. | :14:18. | :14:24. | |
We need to know what is going on. Hopefully they will be a positive | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
outcome. Relegation would m`ssively affect the value of this cltb, I | :14:30. | :14:34. | |
would imagine. You would thhnk so, so many revenue streams will be | :14:35. | :14:37. | |
affected negatively. Any sort of pending decision would be ddlayed | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
until the future of the club is known. Let's have a look at some of | :14:43. | :14:48. | |
the action from Saturday. You were one of 17,000 who were here. What | :14:49. | :14:52. | |
are your thoughts about the Blues being 4`nil down? This May. At | :14:53. | :15:01. | |
half`time, it was incredibld what we had witnessed. Three games left one | :15:02. | :15:08. | |
game in hand. Is being at home and advantage? We have not won `t home | :15:09. | :15:13. | |
since October, you would argue probably not. But I'm sure, we will | :15:14. | :15:18. | |
all get behind the club and the playing staff, and hopefullx we can | :15:19. | :15:25. | |
get the points we need to stay in this division. Thanks very luch | :15:26. | :15:32. | |
indeed. Birmingham City do not have a monopoly on relegation worries. | :15:33. | :15:37. | |
West Bromwich and Aston Villa are still battling for survival in the | :15:38. | :15:41. | |
Premier League. For a moment, just a moment, there | :15:42. | :15:45. | |
was a hint of hope for West Brom fans at Manchester City last night. | :15:46. | :15:48. | |
2`0 down after ten minutes, Graham Dorrans' excellent strike g`ve | :15:49. | :15:51. | |
Baggies fans some belief of an unlikely result. But it wasn't to be | :15:52. | :15:55. | |
and in the end it was a comfortable win for the home side. West Brom | :15:56. | :15:59. | |
have four games to hang on to their Premier League status, which | :16:00. | :16:02. | |
includes tough trips to Arsdnal and Sunderland, who are also fighting | :16:03. | :16:05. | |
for their lives. At Villa P`rk, fans were hoping for the end of `n | :16:06. | :16:08. | |
alarming run of four straight defeats. They got it, just. An | :16:09. | :16:12. | |
uninspiring but nervy 0`0 draw against Southampton in which Villa | :16:13. | :16:15. | |
managed only a single shot on target, means they're limping closer | :16:16. | :16:25. | |
to safety. You get good points, huge moments, that was a massive point | :16:26. | :16:31. | |
after everything that has bden happening. Proud of the plaxers I | :16:32. | :16:36. | |
really am, for that perform`nce As the bottom of the Premier Ldague | :16:37. | :16:40. | |
shows, neither set of fans can sleep easy yet. West Brom are thrde points | :16:41. | :16:44. | |
away from the drop zone, Villa a further two points clear, btt both | :16:45. | :16:47. | |
still to reach the magic mark of 36 points that most experts believe | :16:48. | :16:51. | |
will be enough for safety. There's no sort of worries like that | :16:52. | :16:54. | |
at Stoke City. Comfortably lid`table and already safe, the Potters could | :16:55. | :16:58. | |
have done both Villa and West Brom a huge favour by beating Cardhff. In | :16:59. | :17:02. | |
the end a penalty a side me`nt the gap at the bottom tightened and | :17:03. | :17:09. | |
fingers nails got shorter. The Villa chairman Randy Lerner | :17:10. | :17:11. | |
broke his silence after thehr goalless draw with Southampton. Do | :17:12. | :17:20. | |
you reckon he is planning to sell up? He had the chance to rule it | :17:21. | :17:26. | |
out, and he has not done th`t in his written statement. Randy Lerner says | :17:27. | :17:29. | |
he will address the question of his personal role at the club once this | :17:30. | :17:33. | |
season has ended. And likewhse, the steady rumours suggesting that he'll | :17:34. | :17:36. | |
listen to offers for Aston Villa. The reason for that is crystal | :17:37. | :17:39. | |
clear. The potential asking price for a Premier League club is far | :17:40. | :17:48. | |
greater than a Championship club. I guess that explains one of the | :17:49. | :17:51. | |
reasons why Randy Lerner is so keen for Paul Lambert to keep thhs club | :17:52. | :17:54. | |
in the Premier League in thd final for Mac games of the season. But it | :17:55. | :18:02. | |
is not all Doom And Gloom. Because Wolves are the new champions of | :18:03. | :18:05. | |
League one. And they've enjoyed a record`breaking season. 30 wins 99 | :18:06. | :18:12. | |
points and 24 clean sheets. That is quite a record. Yesterday they | :18:13. | :18:15. | |
clinched the title, beating Leyton Orient 3`1. It was their 14th | :18:16. | :18:18. | |
victory away from Molineux. That's another record. And it means that if | :18:19. | :18:21. | |
they win their last two gamds they'll finish the season on 10 | :18:22. | :18:24. | |
points. A great achievement by Wolves and their manager Kenny | :18:25. | :18:33. | |
Jackett. He has not only achieved the ultimate aim of getting | :18:34. | :18:39. | |
promotion, now is champions, but has completely reinvigorated thd team | :18:40. | :18:42. | |
unchanged squad. It is unrecognisable from what it was He | :18:43. | :18:48. | |
could not have done any better. Great to see smiles around `t | :18:49. | :18:51. | |
Molineux, after some pretty dismal years. What has been the secret of | :18:52. | :18:58. | |
success this season? Two words, Kenny Jackett. When he arrived in | :18:59. | :19:02. | |
the summer, the club was at a low ebb. But Kenny Jackett has fostered | :19:03. | :19:09. | |
a great team spirit. He has used 29 players this season, 13 of them are | :19:10. | :19:13. | |
graduates of the club's Academy A great crop of young players through | :19:14. | :19:18. | |
the ranks. There is a real relationship and Windows pl`yers and | :19:19. | :19:23. | |
the supporters at Molineux. This is my love, it knows no division, they | :19:24. | :19:30. | |
said, when Wolves sunk to back`to`back relegations. That | :19:31. | :19:33. | |
caught the attention of the supporters, and things are on the up | :19:34. | :19:43. | |
again at Wolves. Elsewhere, Shrewsbury town are flirting with | :19:44. | :19:48. | |
relegation, they need to win both of their final games to stand `ny | :19:49. | :19:52. | |
chance of avoiding relegation. And Hereford United's win on Saturday | :19:53. | :19:55. | |
might not be enough to keep them in the Conference with only ond match | :19:56. | :19:58. | |
remaining. And the news frol Birmingham City, let's hope a little | :19:59. | :20:02. | |
bit of clarity can prevail when the board meets in Hong Kong ovdrnight. | :20:03. | :20:05. | |
We will bring you that news tomorrow. Thank you very much | :20:06. | :20:10. | |
indeed. Fingers crossed for so many of our clubs in the region. Let s go | :20:11. | :20:15. | |
out to the countryside now. Like many 15`year`olds, Josdph | :20:16. | :20:18. | |
Pritchard is working hard for his GCSEs. But, unlike most, he's | :20:19. | :20:22. | |
building up his business too. That business is farming and looking | :20:23. | :20:25. | |
after his flock of 64 sheep, as Louisa Currie's been finding out in | :20:26. | :20:31. | |
Herefordshire. Joseph was just 13 when he saved up | :20:32. | :20:35. | |
money from doing odd jobs to buy his first seven ewes. With no hhstory of | :20:36. | :20:40. | |
faming in the family he's ldarn his trade from scratch. I just really | :20:41. | :20:49. | |
like farming, to be honest. I decided that I wanted to st`rt on my | :20:50. | :20:55. | |
own. There is no family farl to pass down to me or anything like that. We | :20:56. | :21:00. | |
have had a few nights of no sleep and that sort of thing, but | :21:01. | :21:03. | |
everybody is very supportivd. I think it is brilliant. He's now | :21:04. | :21:07. | |
juggling revision for his GCSE's with delivering around 100 lambs! | :21:08. | :21:12. | |
But that's just the start. He hopes to double his flock by next year. | :21:13. | :21:16. | |
But as he is finding, farming is rarely straightforward. In order to | :21:17. | :21:21. | |
expand he needs investment to buy a tractor and more ewes. But `ll the | :21:22. | :21:25. | |
grants and loans he's looked at have a minimum age limit of 18 to apply. | :21:26. | :21:36. | |
It seems totally illogical to me. At the moment, at school age, H can | :21:37. | :21:39. | |
understand that. Once he gets to the point where he has done his exams, | :21:40. | :21:44. | |
if he is able to work, if hd is able to pay his taxes like the rdst of | :21:45. | :21:48. | |
us, I can see why you cannot access the same funding as the rest of us. | :21:49. | :21:51. | |
But Joseph says he's determhned to make his dream of farming for a | :21:52. | :21:55. | |
living a reality. It is not really a dream because it is going to happen. | :21:56. | :22:03. | |
I want to be a farmer, that is what I want to do. It is going to happen. | :22:04. | :22:09. | |
It is going to have to happdn. So tomorrow at the crack of dawn Joseph | :22:10. | :22:13. | |
will be back on the farm. And then from counting his sheep it's onto | :22:14. | :22:23. | |
Maths revision. I wonder how the all import`nt | :22:24. | :22:24. | |
weather forecast is looking? weather forecast is | :22:25. | :22:30. | |
Quite good actually. Frost hs not going to be as much of an issue this | :22:31. | :22:34. | |
week, because the temperatures have been pretty decent so far. They have | :22:35. | :22:39. | |
been the highlight, in actu`l fact. Low pressure will dominate so it | :22:40. | :22:42. | |
will be wet in the form of @pril showers or rain. Temperaturds will | :22:43. | :22:48. | |
not drop low enough because of cloud. As the week goes on, those | :22:49. | :22:54. | |
values will slip away slightly, cars of this luscious warm air whll push | :22:55. | :22:59. | |
aside to the East because of a change in wind direction. | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
Temperatures so far into thd mid to high teens, but they will pdrhaps | :23:05. | :23:09. | |
slip to 15, 14 Celsius by the end of the week. Currently this is what we | :23:10. | :23:15. | |
have got heading our way. This will be heading our way over the next 12 | :23:16. | :23:20. | |
hours, a front with heavy, thundery downpours, reaching us by tomorrow | :23:21. | :23:25. | |
morning. In the meantime, a few heavy showers are breaking out | :23:26. | :23:28. | |
across the region at the molent Reports of thundery ones, you can | :23:29. | :23:34. | |
see where they are. These whll start to ease through the latter part of | :23:35. | :23:37. | |
the night. Much drier conditions by that stage. There will be clearer | :23:38. | :23:42. | |
spells, and where we get those spells, we will get some mist and | :23:43. | :23:49. | |
murk. Temperatures falling to seven, eight Celsius. That is how we start | :23:50. | :23:53. | |
tomorrow. I that stage, through the morning, we could see Scherdr | :23:54. | :23:56. | |
starting to break out ahead of that front. Particularly in eastdrn parts | :23:57. | :24:04. | |
of the region. `` showers. Rain pushes in from the west, and this | :24:05. | :24:08. | |
will move quite slowly throtgh the course of the day. The westdrn part | :24:09. | :24:14. | |
of the region is initially `ffected. Temperatures in any sunshind will | :24:15. | :24:17. | |
rise nicely to around 15, 16 Celsius. This rain is then going to | :24:18. | :24:25. | |
cross the region, through the evening tomorrow, and during the | :24:26. | :24:29. | |
first part of the night, evdntually clearing a away during the second | :24:30. | :24:35. | |
half of the night. Temperattres will drop to six, seven Celsius. The rest | :24:36. | :24:39. | |
of the week, Thursday and Friday, a classic case of April showers, | :24:40. | :24:45. | |
sunshine into the weekend. Thanks very much. | :24:46. | :24:47. | |
Tonight's headlines from thd BBC: The dream job that turned into a | :24:48. | :24:50. | |
nightmare. Manager David Moxes is sacked by Manchester United. | :24:51. | :24:53. | |

House prices going through the roof. In some places they're up 10% in a | :25:01. | :25:04. | |
year. And a heart surgeon sacked for | :25:05. | :25:07. | |
submitting incorrect results is working again at a Wolverhalpton | :25:08. | :25:11. | |

tomorrow we'll be celebrating the 450th anniversary of Shakespeare's | :25:16. | :25:19. | |
birth. We'll be exploring how the very young are being taught about | :25:20. | :25:22. | |
England's most famous poet `nd playwright. And how his work is | :25:23. | :25:26. | |
being used to inspire new productions. Also, the artistic | :25:27. | :25:28. | |

manages to cover the totality of human experience. You can fhnd it | :25:42. | :25:47. | |
there. Sometimes we need, wd look for words to explain or to | :25:48. | :25:56. | |
articulate the very extremities of Irish human experience. | :25:57. | :26:01. | |
That is coming up tomorrow, if you have a story you think we should be | :26:02. | :26:05. | |
covering on Midlands Today, we would love to hear from you. You can send | :26:06. | :26:10. | |

taking place in Hong Kong vdry early tomorrow. Have a great evenhng. | :26:26. | :26:28. | |
Goodbye. Some people don't think real change | :26:29. | :26:51. | |
in Europe is possible. Some people don't think real change | :26:52. | :26:56. | |
is necessary. Some people don't think | :26:57. | :26:59. | |
it's worth fighting for. But we want to make Europe work | :27:00. | :27:03. | |
for Britain, and give you the final say | :27:04. | :27:06. | |
with an in-out referendum in 201 . have made Britain's economy | :27:07. | :27:11. | |
stronger and more competitive. a record number of people in work. | :27:12. | :27:18. | |
And we're predicted to be | :27:19. | :27:23. |
