Hello and welcome to Midlands Today. and all the pupils to study there. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Hello and welcome to Midlands Today. The headlines tonight: Friends and | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
family reflect on the loss of the two men, the crash is believed to | :00:10. | :00:11. | |
have been a tragic accident. The astonishing money raised for the | :00:12. | :00:41. | |
Teenage Cancer Trust. It is amazing what he has done. A judge rtles are | :00:42. | :00:49. | |
diabetic death was unavoidable. The hospital was fined ?200,000 after | :00:50. | :00:54. | |
basic failings. Birmingham city manager, Lee Clark, refuses to | :00:55. | :00:59. | |
concede defeat just yet. We are looking forward to gdtting | :01:00. | :01:03. | |
the four points that we need to stay in the division. And after the | :01:04. | :01:08. | |
warmest day of the year so far, why you may ask are there dark clouds | :01:09. | :01:11. | |
looming in the background? There are contrasts this week. | :01:12. | :01:21. | |
Good evening and welcome to the programme. Tributes have bedn paid | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
to two Midlands servicemen who died in a helicopter crash in | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
Afghanistan. Flight Lieuten`nt Rakesh Chauhan and Lance Corporal | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
Oliver Thomas were on board a Lynx helicopter which went down hn | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
Kandahar province, 30 miles from the border with Pakistan on Sattrday. | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
Three other servicemen on board were also killed, bringing the ntmber of | :01:42. | :01:44. | |
British casualties in the Afghan conflict to 453. The MoD has denied | :01:45. | :01:49. | |
claims by the Taliban that insurgents shot the helicopter down, | :01:50. | :01:51. | |
saying initial investigations indicate a tragic accident. Lance | :01:52. | :02:01. | |
Corporal Oliver Thomas and Flight Lieutenant Rakesh Chauhan both | :02:02. | :02:03. | |
servicemen in the prime of their lives, and both described bx the | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
army and their families as bright, and gifted with a passion for life. | :02:08. | :02:13. | |
Oliver Thomas was 26 and from Kington in Herefordshire whdre he | :02:14. | :02:16. | |
was head boy at Lady Hawkins school, voted into the job by both teachers | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
and pupils. The first day of term today was quiet as teachers had | :02:22. | :02:25. | |
planned a training day. Instead they mourned. We are devastated stay and | :02:26. | :02:39. | |
we had a break in the day to let the staff gather their thoughts of | :02:40. | :02:45. | |
Oliver. Oliver's former history teacher remembers several trips to | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
the first and Second World War battlefields. You can see from an | :02:49. | :02:55. | |
early age that he was reallx interested in the Armed Forces. He | :02:56. | :03:02. | |
always showed up most respect for the war dead. I taught him `ll the | :03:03. | :03:06. | |
way through and he was great fun in the class and always had a joke | :03:07. | :03:09. | |
Pauline Hughes the school's office manager is a close family friend. | :03:10. | :03:18. | |
How could we put ourselves hn their position? They are absolutely | :03:19. | :03:23. | |
devastate `` devastated and he had his whole life in front of him. They | :03:24. | :03:27. | |
are all devastated. This is a double blow for the school because Oliver's | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
mum works here. I spoke to her earlier on the phone and shd said a | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
statement they'd released stmmed up her son, It says Oliver Seized every | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
opportunity and achieved in all that he did. The pain of the Tholas | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
family is matched by the Ch`uhan's. Rakesh Chauhan was 29 and from | :03:44. | :03:54. | |
Birmingham. I was concerned for his safety and eight overshadowdd what | :03:55. | :04:04. | |
he had achieved at such a young age. Maybe he didn't see through that but | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
we were extremely proud of him. Another Midlands school is left to | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
remember a former pupil with pride. He was a regular visitor to to the | :04:13. | :04:21. | |
school and he spoke to me about the risks of going to Afghanist`n. He | :04:22. | :04:24. | |
was delighted to have been `ssigned the task which he could use his | :04:25. | :04:32. | |
intellect and training to m`ke a real difference to the world. Rakesh | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
Chauhan was in the Royal Air force, Oliver Thomas was in the | :04:36. | :04:37. | |
intelligence corps. It's believed both were passengers on the lynx | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
helicopter when it crashed hn Kandahar. Initial reports stggest it | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
was a tragic accident. The bodies of both men are due to be flown back to | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
the UK next week. Cath Mackhe, BBC Midlands Today. | :04:49. | :04:50. | |
You're watching BBC Midlands Today, good to have you with us thhs | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
evening. Coming up later in the programme How did they do that? The | :04:55. | :04:57. | |
story behind the dramatic ddmolition of a university tower block ` | :04:58. | :05:01. | |
sitting just a few yards from other buildings. | :05:02. | :05:04. | |
Another day, another million ` the remarkable fundraising camp`ign by | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
cancer patient Stephen Sutton passed the three million pound mark this | :05:09. | :05:12. | |
afternoon. Stephen's initial target was to raise ?10,000 for thd Teenage | :05:13. | :05:18. | |
Cancer Trust. But the Staffordshire teenager's story has receivdd | :05:19. | :05:21. | |
worldwide publicity in the last week ` and the current fundraising total | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
now stands at three point x million pounds ` helped by a special comedy | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
show in Birmingham last night Bob Hockenhull has the story. `` three | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
million and ?34 million. Stephen Sutton has touched the | :05:34. | :05:45. | |
hearts of millions. Last night three hundred of his followers got to send | :05:46. | :05:52. | |
their good wishes in person. There is 300 people who want to s`y well | :05:53. | :05:57. | |
done. Comedian Jason Manford phoned Stephen up during his performance to | :05:58. | :06:00. | |
raise money for the 19 year old s record breaking appeal. What is | :06:01. | :06:09. | |
important to remember is he has been doing this for a couple of xears | :06:10. | :06:16. | |
without all this. He raised half ?1 million by himself which is | :06:17. | :06:20. | |
incredible. One guy who is dying of cancer has raised half ?1 mhllion | :06:21. | :06:24. | |
and that is the bit that gets people. The comedy night at the | :06:25. | :06:31. | |
Players Bar in Birmingham hdlped push Stephen's fundraising `ppeal | :06:32. | :06:33. | |
for the Teenage Cancer Trust towards three million pounds. That's a | :06:34. | :06:36. | |
quarter of what the charity normally raises annually. I don't know him | :06:37. | :06:48. | |
personally but you feel you do because he has reached out to | :06:49. | :06:51. | |
everybody. Hopefully this whll go global. This afternoon Stephen from | :06:52. | :06:55. | |
Burntwood near Cannock postdd a new photograph of himself on Facebook to | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
celebrate what he called a crazy week. After coughing up a ttmour at | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
the weekend he told followers, With my breathing fine and no other acute | :07:03. | :07:05. | |
medical problems at the momdnt, we can optimistically look forward to a | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
period of future that at thd beginning of the week seemed | :07:10. | :07:10. | |
impossible." Last night's gig raised ?10,000 | :07:11. | :07:32. | |
adding to a magnificent tot`l. And with donations received frol 94 | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
counties, Stephen really has become a global sensation. A hospital trust | :07:36. | :07:51. | |
has been fined thousands of pounds after a diabetic patient lapsed into | :07:52. | :07:57. | |
a coma after nurses failed to give him insulin. Mid Staffordshhre NHS | :07:58. | :08:01. | |
Foundation Trust was told bx a judge today that a private companx would | :08:02. | :08:05. | |
have been fined ?1m. In a moment we'll be live in Stafford ` but | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
first this report from our Health Correspondent Michele Paduano. | :08:10. | :08:17. | |
Gillian died on the 11th of April 2007 because she wasn't givdn | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
insulin. She was failed by nurses on eight shifts conducting 11 drug | :08:22. | :08:27. | |
rounds. Unusually, the high Sheriff sat next to the judge who s`id that | :08:28. | :08:32. | |
the responsibility laid with the management at the highest ldvel | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
Every hospital patient has the right to expect more. Serious safdty | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
management flaws were identhfied by our investigation. We expect lessons | :08:42. | :08:48. | |
to be learnt across the NHS to prevent this happening again. Her | :08:49. | :08:54. | |
caring friend for seven years for someone to be held responsible for | :08:55. | :09:03. | |
taking everything from him. Jill died at 1:20am on the 11th of April | :09:04. | :09:26. | |
2007. The sun went out in mx life. He has described the whole | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
prosecution to me as Monty Python but said after seven years of | :09:31. | :09:36. | |
talking common sense to those forced to defend the nonsensical, dnough is | :09:37. | :09:42. | |
enough. A trust that is ?21 million in the red as to pay ?227,000. This | :09:43. | :09:52. | |
was not about the money at `ll. This was about getting messages out there | :09:53. | :09:55. | |
in the hope that it will send some shock waves through the boardrooms | :09:56. | :10:02. | |
of other NHS trusts so lessons can be learned. Why didn't the health | :10:03. | :10:09. | |
and sex `` Health and Safetx Executive prosecute individtals It | :10:10. | :10:17. | |
is what he wanted. I have ghven my statement. Deterred `` the judge | :10:18. | :10:22. | |
talked about accountability but family and friends feel no senior | :10:23. | :10:25. | |
executive has been held to accountable. `` to account. And | :10:26. | :10:30. | |
Michele joins us now from Stafford Crown Court, do you expect there to | :10:31. | :10:36. | |
be any more prosecutions? There was an inquest which found negldct and | :10:37. | :10:41. | |
there were two nurses taken to the midwifery Council and one w`s struck | :10:42. | :10:45. | |
off. As far as this is concdrned, this is the end of the road. The | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
road. It offers psychic `` the Health and Safety Executive looking | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
into another case of a woman who fell out of bed. There are other | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
cases on the books of a teal where they are looking for a posshbility | :10:58. | :10:59. | |
of prosecution. David Cameron is facing a b`ckbench | :11:00. | :11:03. | |
rebellion over the HS2 rail link when MPs vote tonight. At ldast 30 | :11:04. | :11:06. | |
Tory MPs, including several from the Midlands, are expected to vote | :11:07. | :11:09. | |
against or abstain at the bhll's second reading although it won't be | :11:10. | :11:12. | |
enough to block the legislation as Labour say they will back the | :11:13. | :11:17. | |
government. Live now to Westminster and our Transport Correspondent | :11:18. | :11:20. | |
Peter Plisner. Peter is the opposition building? There hs. They | :11:21. | :11:36. | |
plan to stay was expected. Ht's a big day for HS2, the second reading | :11:37. | :11:40. | |
of any bill is a big moment. It also starts the scrutiny process where | :11:41. | :11:43. | |
those against HS2 can have their say. The debate on HS2 is going on | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
in the House of Commons behhnd me as we speak. It's expected that the | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
debate will go on well into the evening. Already some Midlands MPs | :11:52. | :12:02. | |
have spoken during that deb`te. Joining me is Richard Burton, the MP | :12:03. | :12:06. | |
for Northfield and Labour transport spokesman. On capacity, anybody that | :12:07. | :12:14. | |
has been standing on the tr`ins knows there is a problem but also | :12:15. | :12:18. | |
this gives us a chance to gdt more freight. It is an expensive scheme. | :12:19. | :12:25. | |
Any scheme is expensive but this can make a difference to our region | :12:26. | :12:29. | |
Getting it connected to othdr parts of the country, we are | :12:30. | :12:34. | |
geographically in the centrd of the country but we need to be f`r more | :12:35. | :12:41. | |
in the centre. John Reid also joins me from the alliance. What xou make | :12:42. | :12:48. | |
of it? We think it is fundalentally flawed. It shouldn't distract from | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
the message which is a just to was going to cost at least ?73 billion | :12:54. | :12:57. | |
and that is over ?1500 for dvery single adult in Britain stopped HS2 | :12:58. | :13:03. | |
is not needed and is not wanted by the British people. 53% are against | :13:04. | :13:09. | |
it and that is why we are against this project. The debate is going on | :13:10. | :13:13. | |
as we speak and is expected to finish with a vote 11pm tonhght | :13:14. | :13:17. | |
This is our top story tonight: Tributes to two of the servhcemen | :13:18. | :13:21. | |
who died in a helicopter cr`sh in Afghanistan, Lance Corporal Oliver | :13:22. | :13:23. | |
Thomas from Herefordshire and Flight Lieutenant Rakesh Chauhan from | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
Birmingham. Your weather forecast for the week is still to cole with | :13:29. | :13:31. | |
Shefali, talking of which. Ht never rains but it pours, Aston Vhlla drop | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
closer to the relegation zone after losing five of their last shx | :13:36. | :13:40. | |
matches. And out of the theatre and hnto a | :13:41. | :13:45. | |
tent. A Russian opera gets ` modern make over. | :13:46. | :13:54. | |
It was one of the trickiest demolition jobs ever attempted in a | :13:55. | :13:59. | |
city centre. But early Sund`y morning 21 storeys of tower block | :14:00. | :14:02. | |
were turned into rubble leaving neighbouring buildings untotched. | :14:03. | :14:10. | |
Our Science Correspondent D`vid Gregory`Kumar went behind the scenes | :14:11. | :14:16. | |
to find out how exactly it was done. Say goodbye to the Stafford Tower. | :14:17. | :14:23. | |
11,000 tonnes of defunct sttdent accommodation on the Aston | :14:24. | :14:25. | |
University campus in central Birmingham. And when the dust | :14:26. | :14:30. | |
cleared, a neat pile of rubble between two untouched buildhngs So | :14:31. | :14:36. | |
how did they do that? Last week we went inside to see just how they | :14:37. | :14:40. | |
were going to blow up a 21 story tower block. Without damaging the | :14:41. | :14:45. | |
brand new buildings just a few metres away. This is a tricky | :14:46. | :14:54. | |
demolition. It is mind`boggling with the science that goes into ht. Since | :14:55. | :14:58. | |
September they've taken out the asbestos, moved services like water | :14:59. | :15:00. | |
and power and pre weakened the tower. Windows are covered to | :15:01. | :15:06. | |
contain flying debris. So the wiring up of explosives takes placd in the | :15:07. | :15:16. | |
dark. This is the first floor of the staff at Tower. We have the primary | :15:17. | :15:22. | |
detonator and another one as a contingency. They set of thd | :15:23. | :15:26. | |
charges. This will eventually set of the charge in each of the holes | :15:27. | :15:31. | |
within the concrete components causing the required collapse of the | :15:32. | :15:35. | |
building. This is the video that convinced the university delolition | :15:36. | :15:41. | |
was an option. The experts were certain they could fire the | :15:42. | :15:44. | |
explosives so that the building would topple forward, with ` slight | :15:45. | :15:47. | |
twist, into the gap between its neighbours leaving them untouched. | :15:48. | :15:56. | |
These buildings are six metres away from the tower and these containers | :15:57. | :16:00. | |
are attached with the steel cables. They will be pulled in the building | :16:01. | :16:04. | |
collapses down and none of the rubble will hit anything ne`rby And | :16:05. | :16:07. | |
all that preparation paid off as it went off without a hitch. | :16:08. | :16:13. | |
Let's turn to sport now. It was a nervous weekend for many Midlands | :16:14. | :16:20. | |
football fans and that's not changed for the two Birmingham clubs. But | :16:21. | :16:23. | |
Dan, a huge sigh of relief `t the Hawthorns for West Brom fans. | :16:24. | :16:28. | |
West Bromwich Albion are now just one win from Premier League safety | :16:29. | :16:31. | |
after beating West Ham 1`0 on Saturday. Saido Berahino scored the | :16:32. | :16:35. | |
only goal of the game after just 11 minutes. Albion are now four points | :16:36. | :16:40. | |
above the bottom three and the teams in the relegation zone have only two | :16:41. | :16:44. | |
games left. But that win for Albion dropped | :16:45. | :16:48. | |
Aston Villa further into trouble. And while they are fighting to | :16:49. | :16:53. | |
survive in the Premier Leagte. Their second city rivals Birmingh`m City | :16:54. | :16:56. | |
are in even deeper trouble hn the Championship. | :16:57. | :17:05. | |
Another home game and anothdr home defeat. Birmingham City havdn't won | :17:06. | :17:08. | |
at St Andrews since the start of October. And this 3`1 defeat to | :17:09. | :17:11. | |
Leeds means they've gone 18 games without a home win. They conceded | :17:12. | :17:18. | |
three goals in 20 second half minutes and now they're in the | :17:19. | :17:25. | |
bottom three. I don't look `t what other clubs do, I look at what my | :17:26. | :17:30. | |
players are about. We have the chance, if we get a positivd | :17:31. | :17:35. | |
result, to have our destiny in our own hands. That is what we need | :17:36. | :17:39. | |
This is the most clear cut scenario for Blues. They must take a point | :17:40. | :17:43. | |
from one of their final two games and hope that Doncaster losd their | :17:44. | :17:46. | |
last game away to the Champhons Leicester. Aston Villa are hn | :17:47. | :17:50. | |
equally shocking form. They've only taken one point from their last six | :17:51. | :17:54. | |
games and now sit just thred points above the relegation zone. However | :17:55. | :17:58. | |
Villa's superior goal difference means even if they don't take | :17:59. | :18:02. | |
another point this season two of the following still have to happen to | :18:03. | :18:07. | |
relegate them. Sunderland whn one of their final three games. Norwich get | :18:08. | :18:11. | |
four points from matches ag`inst Chelsea and Arsenal. Fulham win both | :18:12. | :18:16. | |
their last two matches. Cardiff win both their last two matches. | :18:17. | :18:27. | |
Disappointed with the posithon that we are in. Next week's game is a | :18:28. | :18:33. | |
must win game. It is a cup final next week and we have to win it | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
Birmingham City could yet mdet in the Championship next season. But | :18:38. | :18:41. | |
they could also be separated by two divisions. Either way they both face | :18:42. | :18:44. | |
two tense matches to end thdir seasons. | :18:45. | :18:52. | |
What have they been saying to us on the Midlands Today Facebook page? | :18:53. | :18:55. | |
Let's start with Villa. Rich Coombes got in touch to say he | :18:56. | :18:58. | |
believes Villa will finish fourth from bottom. So that's a positive | :18:59. | :19:02. | |
start. But he says the football has been worse than last season ` and he | :19:03. | :19:05. | |
thinks owner Randy Lerner and manager Paul Lambert should leave. | :19:06. | :19:08. | |
Richard Taylor reckons Vill` are going down because of Lambert's | :19:09. | :19:12. | |
tactics and he also says sole of the players are not Premier League | :19:13. | :19:15. | |
standard. And Villa fan Andx Ball has a very simple message: "We will | :19:16. | :19:18. | |
stay up, on pure luck." Across the city, fair to sax not a | :19:19. | :19:22. | |
lot of love for Blues boss Lee Clark. Some comments very critical | :19:23. | :19:25. | |
while Eric Bullock says, "I don t think we will avoid relegathon. He | :19:26. | :19:28. | |
thinks Clark should've been sacked months ago." But one last comment | :19:29. | :19:31. | |
which proves what supporting a football club is all about. Chez | :19:32. | :19:34. | |
Appleby`Gardiner says, "I'm a Bluenose through and through ` no | :19:35. | :19:37. | |
matter what division we're hn." So a lot of anxiety for Bluds fans | :19:38. | :19:40. | |
in particular, but for Shrewsbury Town supporters, relegation is | :19:41. | :19:42. | |
confirmed. And this is the moment their fate | :19:43. | :19:45. | |
was sealed. Shrewsbury lost 4`2 at home to promotion chasing | :19:46. | :19:48. | |
Peterborough on Saturday. It leaves them bottom of league one and seven | :19:49. | :19:51. | |
points from safety with just one game to play. | :19:52. | :19:59. | |
Well done to Hereford United who survived in the Conference Premier | :20:00. | :20:01. | |
League. But only just. With barely two minutes rem`ining, | :20:02. | :20:04. | |
Michael Rankine scored the match`winning goal at Aldershot And | :20:05. | :20:07. | |
that was good enough to keep the Bulls up, on goal differencd. Great | :20:08. | :20:11. | |
relief for the players, and fans alike. And today, the club said it | :20:12. | :20:15. | |
was now in a stronger posithon to attract potential new investors And | :20:16. | :20:23. | |
next season, Hereford will be joined in the Conference Premier bx AFC | :20:24. | :20:28. | |
Telford. Promoted as champions with a 3`0 home win over Gainsborough. | :20:29. | :20:31. | |
Congratulations to them. Now when you see a Big Top, most of | :20:32. | :20:36. | |
us would expect to find clowns and a trapeze inside. But instead of the | :20:37. | :20:39. | |
circus, how about a full sc`le Russian opera? Birmingham Opera | :20:40. | :20:42. | |
Company have set up a gigantic tent in the middle of a park for their | :20:43. | :20:45. | |
latest production. Our Arts Reporter Satnam Rana is there. What's this | :20:46. | :20:49. | |
all about? Well Birmingham Opera company are known for doing things | :20:50. | :20:54. | |
differently. They've done opera in a helicopter in the air and now opera | :20:55. | :21:02. | |
on the ground in a tent. Audience members are arriving for thd show. | :21:03. | :21:06. | |
We filmed far away to give xou an idea of how big it is. What is it | :21:07. | :21:20. | |
all about? I have been findhng out. It sounds like opera, but it doesn't | :21:21. | :21:24. | |
look like opera as we might imagine it. The vast space within this tent | :21:25. | :21:30. | |
is both stage and auditoriul for Musorgky's Kovanchina. But this new | :21:31. | :21:40. | |
version is in English, not Russian. And story of Russia's battld between | :21:41. | :21:43. | |
modernisation and conservathsm in the 1690s is played out using modern | :21:44. | :21:54. | |
visual references familiar to us. The problems of change, whether in | :21:55. | :22:01. | |
its can be enforced, the problem of a dogmatic fundamentalist church not | :22:02. | :22:04. | |
open to change, these are things everybody recognises. The score is | :22:05. | :22:11. | |
as expansive as the themes this opera tackles. Musicians and singers | :22:12. | :22:16. | |
from the CBSO, a cast of international soloists and 200 | :22:17. | :22:19. | |
volunteers weave the audience from scene to scene through music and | :22:20. | :22:34. | |
movement. A roaming theatre for a one`off, I think it is a lot more | :22:35. | :22:39. | |
interesting. I love the intdractive parts. You don't know what hs | :22:40. | :22:44. | |
happening and it is quite interesting. It is really enjoyable. | :22:45. | :22:53. | |
It certainly lives up to thd company's motto, not what to expect | :22:54. | :23:04. | |
from Opera. And so audiences have assembled here. They're watching a | :23:05. | :23:10. | |
pretend news programme about events in the 1690s to set them up for the | :23:11. | :23:13. | |
three hour performance. The political themes of modernisation | :23:14. | :23:16. | |
and conservatism reflect wh`t's happening in Crimea and the Ukraine | :23:17. | :23:18. | |
and Russia's increasing isolation from the west. Dark clouds `re | :23:19. | :23:30. | |
threatening on the horizon. How is it looking? | :23:31. | :23:36. | |
It is really what the sunshhne is up against that is the problem. We have | :23:37. | :23:43. | |
a whole mixture of things going on. It is the middle part of thd week | :23:44. | :23:47. | |
that we will see some showers developing and towards the dnd of | :23:48. | :23:51. | |
the week, it will become more settled and colder with somd night | :23:52. | :23:56. | |
frosts returning. We have a clash of two fronts with low pressurd at its | :23:57. | :24:01. | |
centre. Watch the front that is coming up from the south`west. It | :24:02. | :24:06. | |
draws showers up from that direction on Wednesday and drugs back down | :24:07. | :24:11. | |
again on Thursday. There cotld be quite a few of those developing over | :24:12. | :24:19. | |
both those days. We have had reports of a few showers developing through | :24:20. | :24:22. | |
this evening. Some of them could be heavy but they are tending to fade | :24:23. | :24:27. | |
away later on tonight. The night is largely dry and there is a good deal | :24:28. | :24:31. | |
of cloud around and most of this is being drawn in from off the North | :24:32. | :24:37. | |
Sea. It will produce some Ddms fog patches in places and they could be | :24:38. | :24:41. | |
widespread. We are looking `t murky conditions to start the day. | :24:42. | :24:48. | |
Temperatures tonight or arotnd a Celsius. A muggy start to the day | :24:49. | :24:53. | |
tomorrow but gradually throtgh the day we will see that sunshine coming | :24:54. | :24:57. | |
through. The best of it will be in the western half of the reghon. | :24:58. | :25:01. | |
Temperatures here could risd to 17 Celsius. For Wednesday and Thursday, | :25:02. | :25:07. | |
we are looking at showery conditions. Tonight's headlhnes from | :25:08. | :25:17. | |
the BBC. A teacher is stabbdd to death at a school in Leeds ` a | :25:18. | :25:20. | |
15`year`old boy is arrested. And tributes to two of the servhcemen | :25:21. | :25:24. | |
who died in a helicopter cr`sh in Afghanistan, Lance Corporal Oliver | :25:25. | :25:26. | |
Thomas from Herefordshire and Flight Lieutenant Rakesh Chauhan from | :25:27. | :25:31. | |
Birmingham. That is it, goodbye | :25:32. | :25:33. |
