The headlines tonight: So | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
The campaign to change "frustrating and puzzling rules" by | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
the parents of a baby who died waiting for an organ transplant. | :00:08. | :00:10. | |
Babies under two months can't become organ donors in the UK, although | :00:11. | :00:14. | |
He could be here today if we didn't have this law, | :00:15. | :00:20. | |
because there are that many babies that have passed away. | :00:21. | :00:22. | |
frustration and anger from parents in Redditch over proposals | :00:23. | :00:27. | |
It is a short`term, ill`thought`out plan that could jeopardise | :00:28. | :00:33. | |
Recreating a life`threatening tower block fire ` preparing crews | :00:34. | :00:40. | |
Have you seen the cost of faggots these days? | :00:41. | :00:46. | |
?120,000 ` but you get the shop for free. | :00:47. | :00:53. | |
I love them. They are top`notch. Top`notch. | :00:54. | :01:03. | |
And it's been a much better day across the Midlands, with more | :01:04. | :01:06. | |
It's looking a little stormy as we head into the weekend though. | :01:07. | :01:11. | |
Good evening and welcome to the programme. | :01:12. | :01:24. | |
A young couple from Wolverhampton whose baby son died while waiting | :01:25. | :01:27. | |
for a new heart are stepping up their campaign for a change | :01:28. | :01:31. | |
Ryan Brookhouse, who was eight months`old, | :01:32. | :01:34. | |
spent his life on the waiting list before he died last month. | :01:35. | :01:38. | |
Babies under the age of two months aren't allowed to be | :01:39. | :01:41. | |
donors in the UK, although that's not the case elsewhere in Europe. | :01:42. | :01:44. | |
We tried not to wonder, is today going to be a day he?ll get a heart? | :01:45. | :01:51. | |
Gary Brookhouse describes an exhausting wait for a tiny heart | :01:52. | :02:01. | |
But last month time ran out and doctors had to say this: | :02:02. | :02:11. | |
That is it, we cannot do any more. We got all the family to come up the | :02:12. | :02:20. | |
next day and they said I needed to tell them when I was ready. It was | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
the hardest thing I've ever had to do in my life. But I take comfort | :02:26. | :02:33. | |
that he is no longer in pain. I miss him so much. I'm a | :02:34. | :02:34. | |
The family's now back at home in Wolverhampton with | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
They spent five months in Newcastle`upon`Tyne, | :02:40. | :02:42. | |
at one of only two heart transplant centres in the country. | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
Doctors here have been following guidelines for more than 20 years. | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
They prevent babies under two months old being organ donors. | :02:49. | :02:50. | |
That's because, at that age, they can't officially be declared | :02:51. | :02:53. | |
So doctors can only import organs for transplant. | :02:54. | :03:02. | |
chrome he went through so much. He didn't deserve that. If this law was | :03:03. | :03:08. | |
changed he could have had a heart. Two 250,000 people have supported | :03:09. | :03:10. | |
an online petition for a change A doctor at Freeman Hospital | :03:11. | :03:13. | |
in Newcastle described the difference in rules here and abroad | :03:14. | :03:16. | |
as "frustrating and puzzling". The Royal College of Paediatrics and | :03:17. | :03:20. | |
Child Health says it's currently reviewing scientific evidence to see | :03:21. | :03:23. | |
if new guidelines are appropriate. Their findings should | :03:24. | :03:29. | |
be ready this summer. But they're pushing for a change | :03:30. | :03:32. | |
in procedures. He was a little treasure. That is | :03:33. | :03:48. | |
why we want to do something positive because he is a little fight and we | :03:49. | :03:51. | |
need to fight to get this law changed. | :03:52. | :03:51. | |
It's good to have you with us this evening. | :03:52. | :03:54. | |
Plenty more to come including A Song for Stephen. | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
We meet the friends of Stephen Sutton who have recorded | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
a top five tribute to the inspirational teenager | :04:02. | :04:08. | |
Two of the Birmingham schools at the centre of allegations of a Muslim | :04:09. | :04:11. | |
plot to takeover state schools have been placed in special measures. | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
The BBC has obtained a copy of the full Ofsted report for Golden | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
Hillock School in Sparkhil, which is run by Park View Educational Trust. | :04:19. | :04:21. | |
Details have also emerged about the report into Saltley School | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
Our reporter Ben Godfrey is at Golden Hillock school ` | :04:26. | :04:32. | |
How has the school be judged to fail? | :04:33. | :04:41. | |
As Ofsted reports go, this is critically bad. Golden Hill Academy | :04:42. | :04:50. | |
is failing in every way. In teaching, pupil safety, leadership | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
and management. This is an academy and is run by the Parkview | :04:55. | :05:00. | |
educational trust. 90% of the pupils here who have English as a second | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
language. One of the things Ofsted picked out in their inspection is a | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
risk of cultural isolation. One of the things they did say was that | :05:08. | :05:12. | |
students could be left vulnerable to the risk of marginalisation from | :05:13. | :05:16. | |
wider British society and the associated risks which could include | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
radicalisation. It will now go into special measures. Interestingly, the | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
pupils don't agree. They were praised for their eagerness to | :05:27. | :05:27. | |
learn. And within | :05:28. | :05:28. | |
the last hour details have emerged What more can you tell us | :05:29. | :05:30. | |
about that report? We are just learning about this. | :05:31. | :05:39. | |
This school is in baldly Green and has been rated as inadequate in | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
every area. Previously, it was a good school believe it or not. This | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
report we have seen tonight portrays the school in disarray at the time | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
of the inspection. A complete breakdown between governors and the | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
leadership of the school. One quote said governors do not seem any need | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
to engage with external agencies to ensure student at Rutgers students | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
are safe from the risks of radicalisation and extremism. | :06:05. | :06:04. | |
Has there been a response from either school? | :06:05. | :06:08. | |
One response on golden hillock. They dispute of inadequate rating | :06:09. | :06:16. | |
completely and could take legal action. They say it makes absolute | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
that I've absolutely no suggestion, nor do they find any evidence that | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
golden hillock either promotes or tolerates extremism or | :06:26. | :06:26. | |
radicalisation. In the last three years West | :06:27. | :07:05. | |
Midlands fire fighters have tackled 1,200 fires in tower blocks ` four | :07:06. | :07:08. | |
people died and 200 were injured. Today, a new training facility ` | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
believed to be one of the first in the world ` | :07:13. | :07:15. | |
was opened to ensure crews are fully Although it can be one | :07:16. | :07:18. | |
of the most dangerous and complex incidents West Midlands fire crews | :07:19. | :07:33. | |
face, until now they've haven't been In a West Midlands we have over a | :07:34. | :07:47. | |
thousand high`rise building so it is absolutely correct that we have this | :07:48. | :07:51. | |
facility to replicate the type of incidents as we get in those | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
buildings. And it'll keep our firefighters safe. Here, the wind is | :07:56. | :08:02. | |
so much more unpredictable than it is on the ground. Until now, nowhere | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
in the world did firefighters have a permanent building to recreate that | :08:08. | :08:12. | |
problem. It is now hoped that this one will not only help save the | :08:13. | :08:15. | |
lives of people in high`rise buildings, but also the firefighters | :08:16. | :08:16. | |
tackling the blazers. The six`storey tower, | :08:17. | :08:17. | |
made from metal containers, was the idea of one West Midlands | :08:18. | :08:19. | |
Fire's training instructors. In 2010, two fire fighters died | :08:20. | :08:21. | |
tackling this blaze This is massively important for our | :08:22. | :08:34. | |
firefighters' 's safety. They need to understand about smoke and how it | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
travels around buildings and how we can stop that from happening. | :08:39. | :08:39. | |
In 2010, two fire fighters died tackling this blaze | :08:40. | :08:42. | |
The year before, six people lost their lives | :08:43. | :08:46. | |
It is realistic, because you train just as if you are in a concrete | :08:47. | :08:59. | |
building. This is more like actual laid out it is more realistic. | :09:00. | :09:01. | |
The hope is fire fighters from across the Midlands ` | :09:02. | :09:04. | |
and eventually the whole of the UK ` will be able to train here. | :09:05. | :09:13. | |
Parents are campaigning against proposals to change | :09:14. | :09:15. | |
the education system in a north Worcestershire town. | :09:16. | :09:17. | |
Schools in Redditch currently operate under a three`tier system | :09:18. | :09:20. | |
But the new leaders of Tudor Grange Academy in Redditch want to change | :09:21. | :09:25. | |
the age range from the current 13`18 to a secondary school age range | :09:26. | :09:28. | |
Critics claim it will lead to other schools in the town being | :09:29. | :09:33. | |
It's got the teachers, it's got the classrooms. | :09:34. | :09:41. | |
But at Tudor Grange Academy in Redditch they believe there's | :09:42. | :09:44. | |
We are currently a high school, 13 to 18. We want a change to an 11 to | :09:45. | :09:53. | |
18 school. So they want to open the doors for | :09:54. | :09:55. | |
children in years seven and eight. In many parts of the country those | :09:56. | :09:58. | |
children already go to high school. But Redditch, like | :09:59. | :10:02. | |
a few other towns, is different. In Redditch those children | :10:03. | :10:04. | |
currently go to middle schools. We would have them for five years | :10:05. | :10:11. | |
prior to taking their exams and therefore would be able to better | :10:12. | :10:14. | |
prepare them for their examination results and get even better | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
results. Then they can prepare themselves for their future | :10:19. | :10:21. | |
careers, the sixth form, college or the world of work. | :10:22. | :10:22. | |
It sounds a simple argument, but there's a lot of concern | :10:23. | :10:25. | |
among parents like those who met this lunchtime | :10:26. | :10:27. | |
They all wore a blue ribbon as a sign of solidarity. | :10:28. | :10:32. | |
The changes could be implemented as soon as September 2015, | :10:33. | :10:34. | |
I have a sun who would be starting here when all these changes take | :10:35. | :10:39. | |
effect. So obviously, I don't know what will happen to him now or where | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
he will be going. I don't know if his school will be kept open or not. | :10:44. | :10:50. | |
we have a system here that works and works very well. So a thorough good | :10:51. | :10:54. | |
educational outcomes of our children so why change it? | :10:55. | :10:56. | |
leaving middle schools like Walkwood pondering their future. | :10:57. | :10:58. | |
This school is very proud of its success ` not least it's | :10:59. | :11:01. | |
But the fear is this kind of success could be jeopardised if the | :11:02. | :11:06. | |
It is about all the schools in the area. If this goes ahead all the | :11:07. | :11:19. | |
other schools have to assess their situation and they might have the | :11:20. | :11:22. | |
change. It will cost a lot of money. I want people to think about who | :11:23. | :11:26. | |
will pay for that and where the children will go to school and what | :11:27. | :11:27. | |
sort of school they will go to. Tudor Grange insist it's not | :11:28. | :11:29. | |
a done deal and The final decision rests with | :11:30. | :11:31. | |
the secretary of state. Cath Mackie, BBC Midlands Today, | :11:32. | :11:35. | |
Redditch. A little earlier, I spoke to | :11:36. | :11:37. | |
Redditch MP Karen Lumley. I asked | :11:38. | :11:39. | |
whether she supports the proposal As it stands, no. I think it is too | :11:40. | :11:52. | |
rushed, needs to be thought out and it needs to involve other parts of | :11:53. | :11:58. | |
the community. That is what I have written to the Trust yesterday. I | :11:59. | :12:02. | |
said they need to rethink it and have a bigger consultation and the | :12:03. | :12:04. | |
timescale is far too short. Did you know about this proposal | :12:05. | :12:07. | |
ahead of the consultation? I found out at the same time as | :12:08. | :12:18. | |
everybody else. I had a letter, and some of the schools who were | :12:19. | :12:22. | |
affected had a visit, but I did not. Did that surprise you? I'm concerned | :12:23. | :12:28. | |
that as a member of Parliament for Redditch that I was not informed | :12:29. | :12:31. | |
along side other interested parties, yes. I put that in my letter. I | :12:32. | :12:35. | |
think that was not the right thing to do. Is it a weakness in the | :12:36. | :12:42. | |
academy system? They do operate independently outside local | :12:43. | :12:44. | |
authority control. Did they think they didn't need to ask you? There | :12:45. | :12:50. | |
have to consult everybody. The whole point of this is that there is a | :12:51. | :12:53. | |
consultation and then the results go to the secretary of state. It is up | :12:54. | :12:59. | |
to him then to look at it. This consultation is important and it is | :13:00. | :13:03. | |
important to everybody who has an interest, whichever side of the | :13:04. | :13:07. | |
fence they are wrong. I'm in favour of the two tier education system, | :13:08. | :13:11. | |
but I think, this is not the right way to go about it. So it is the | :13:12. | :13:19. | |
time frame? I was educated in the two tier system. I have no problem | :13:20. | :13:25. | |
with it. I think, nationally, the system performs better across the | :13:26. | :13:27. | |
country than a three tier system. But, the point of this, is that we | :13:28. | :13:32. | |
have a three tier system in Redditch. Some parents like it, some | :13:33. | :13:36. | |
parents do not. I have parents on both sides coming to me sharing | :13:37. | :13:41. | |
their concerns and it is my job as their MP to share those concerns | :13:42. | :13:48. | |
with the secretary of state. I'm looking forward to meeting with him | :13:49. | :13:53. | |
soon. I want to share with him my concerns about what is happening and | :13:54. | :13:56. | |
for him to make what will be the right decision. | :13:57. | :14:02. | |
A charity single inspired by teenage fundraiser Stephen Sutton has made | :14:03. | :14:05. | |
'Hope Ain't a Bad Thing' by The Neon Brotherhood sold thousands | :14:06. | :14:09. | |
of copies in less than 48 hours after it was released. | :14:10. | :14:12. | |
The single currently sits at number five ` and here's a flavour. | :14:13. | :14:42. | |
Money raised will go to the Teenage Cancer Trust, which has already | :14:43. | :14:46. | |
received more than ?4 million thanks to Stephen's incredible fundraising, | :14:47. | :14:49. | |
and here in the studio is the songwriter Martin Stanyer. | :14:50. | :14:56. | |
When you recorded this track in Stephen's hometown of Burntwood, did | :14:57. | :14:59. | |
It is a complete surprise but what a victory for Stephen. What inspires | :15:00. | :15:18. | |
you to write this? We met Stephen last year and basically, he made | :15:19. | :15:22. | |
such an impact upon us that we wanted to do the best we could for | :15:23. | :15:28. | |
him. How did you first meeting? He came to the studio when he was 14 | :15:29. | :15:33. | |
with his band to rehearse. We got to know him then, but, obviously, in | :15:34. | :15:40. | |
the last two years we got to know him a lot more. He was a talented | :15:41. | :15:46. | |
drummer wasn't he? Yes he was. Which is why, on the single, we have many | :15:47. | :15:51. | |
drums as part of the production of the song. What has been a reaction? | :15:52. | :15:56. | |
People obviously love it, what about those closest to him including his | :15:57. | :16:01. | |
mum? She loves it. And his brother Chris. They have given us their | :16:02. | :16:04. | |
endorsements. They are very happy with it. They know every word! | :16:05. | :16:14. | |
Wedded the title come from? Basically how Stephen has given hope | :16:15. | :16:18. | |
to everybody on how to live their life. It is a really inspirational | :16:19. | :16:22. | |
thing he has done. I think Stephen showed us all the hope is a good | :16:23. | :16:28. | |
thing. It could go to number one? eight already has on the Amazon | :16:29. | :16:33. | |
charts. It is at number five in the official UK charts which is | :16:34. | :16:38. | |
unbelievable. Number one in the Amazon charts and number two in the | :16:39. | :16:42. | |
iTunes charts. Another number one to Stephen. Maybe a video to go with | :16:43. | :16:55. | |
it? We are working,! By it. It is all going to Teenage Cancer Trust. | :16:56. | :16:57. | |
Thank you. How much would you pay for the | :16:58. | :17:02. | |
Black Country delicacy of faggots? That will actually get you | :17:03. | :17:05. | |
the secret recipe, You also get a shop thrown in | :17:06. | :17:09. | |
for free. Kevin Reide is in Old Hill | :17:10. | :17:13. | |
for us now. Well America, this is the shopping | :17:14. | :17:26. | |
question. That had shops like this here the last one to five years. The | :17:27. | :17:32. | |
first one was opened by Eve Belling, this is a picture of her. She was | :17:33. | :17:38. | |
famous for a very special recipe and we can see today, these fighters are | :17:39. | :17:43. | |
still on sale in the shop. This shop is run by her great`grandson Nigel, | :17:44. | :17:47. | |
who has been here himself since 1965. Let us go and meet Nigel. Let | :17:48. | :17:56. | |
us see how they make them. Tell us what the main ingredients is. Fresh | :17:57. | :18:05. | |
onions, brusque with herbs and our own seasoning. We wrapped them in | :18:06. | :18:13. | |
this and put them into the tin ready for cooking. Are you retiring? I | :18:14. | :18:24. | |
need time to busy my sons and my grandchildren. Are you sad? | :18:25. | :18:31. | |
emotional. It is an emotional roller`coaster ride. You have some | :18:32. | :18:34. | |
very appreciative customers who really enjoy these fighters. We | :18:35. | :18:38. | |
spoke to some earlier on. I like them with chips. Allied with mash | :18:39. | :18:58. | |
and peas. I love them. no. They do not appeal to me. Here are some | :18:59. | :19:05. | |
finished ones. Over the last one to five years, this business has | :19:06. | :19:10. | |
produced approximately 2 million of those. Nigel tells me you have | :19:11. | :19:13. | |
produced about 800,000. Is that right? Will you not stay around for | :19:14. | :19:20. | |
a million. no. That must be by somebody else. | :19:21. | :19:25. | |
He came from an illustrious family, the bravery he showed was common | :19:26. | :19:29. | |
The Reverend Maurice Peel, grandson of the | :19:30. | :19:32. | |
Prime Minister Sir Robert Peel, earned the love of the troops but | :19:33. | :19:35. | |
He went over the top on the Western Front armed with nothing | :19:36. | :19:41. | |
Giles Latcham took Maurice's great grandson, himself a clergyman, | :19:42. | :19:44. | |
on a journey in search of his courageous ancestor. | :19:45. | :19:48. | |
At St Editha's, Tamworth's historic mediaeval church, David Longe is | :19:49. | :19:51. | |
I feel quite humbled to be in the same place where he was, because | :19:52. | :19:59. | |
He's treading in the footsteps of his great grandfather, another | :20:00. | :20:03. | |
clergyman, the Reverend Maurice Peel, a vicar here during World War | :20:04. | :20:06. | |
He was shot going over the top carrying a walking stick | :20:07. | :20:12. | |
He describes it dramatically ` a tremendous thwack | :20:13. | :20:17. | |
Maurice came from an illustrious family ` his grandfather, the Prime | :20:18. | :20:28. | |
Minister Sir Robert Peel, helped create the Metropolitan Police. | :20:29. | :20:31. | |
In his short time in Tamworth, Maurice became part | :20:32. | :20:34. | |
He was regarded as a very warm human being who | :20:35. | :20:39. | |
So in two years he made a great impact. | :20:40. | :20:46. | |
With extraordinary courage, once he'd recovered from his wounds, | :20:47. | :20:48. | |
In May 1917 near Bullcourt, he tried to reach a wounded soldier in | :20:49. | :20:54. | |
No Man's Land, but was shot through the stomach and bled to death. | :20:55. | :20:58. | |
I think it is extraordinary he returned a second time. | :20:59. | :21:09. | |
There are two columns here devoted to him. It says he rests in France | :21:10. | :21:17. | |
in the company of sons and brothers who have died as he has in the | :21:18. | :21:21. | |
glorious cause of saving the liberties of humanity. | :21:22. | :21:33. | |
Devoted to the troops then as well as to God ` not though, says | :21:34. | :21:37. | |
The idea of standing with the very poorest | :21:38. | :21:45. | |
members of society and ministering to them was a principal, a goal and | :21:46. | :21:49. | |
an ideal which he would not have neglected in the context of war. | :21:50. | :21:53. | |
Maurice Berkeley Peel was awarded the Military Cross, one of 179 army | :21:54. | :22:04. | |
And if you're interested in learning more about World War I, the BBC has | :22:05. | :22:17. | |

Neil Baldwin likes to think of himself as an ordinary man. | :22:25. | :22:27. | |
But he has an extraordinary story to tell about his life. | :22:28. | :22:30. | |
His simple down to earth approachable demeanour | :22:31. | :22:32. | |
has won him the friendship of politicians, sports stars | :22:33. | :22:34. | |
Now he's to be the subject of a 90 minute film drama. | :22:35. | :22:39. | |
In the Staffordshire countryside near Keele University, Neil Baldwin | :22:40. | :22:48. | |
He's watching the making of a major BBC film ` and it's all about him. | :22:49. | :22:53. | |
Everybody says I get everywhere, and I do. It has been a great life. | :22:54. | :23:08. | |
Born in Newcastle`under`Lyme, he's worked as a clown, a kit manager | :23:09. | :23:11. | |
for Stoke City and he's spent most of his life helping organise events | :23:12. | :23:14. | |
Last year, he was given an honorary degree for his efforts. | :23:15. | :23:24. | |
Neal first came here with his mother who was a cleaner on campus. Who | :23:25. | :23:30. | |
could have predicted that more than 50 years later he would be such a | :23:31. | :23:34. | |
part of the fabric of this university. I would say the more | :23:35. | :23:41. | |
improbable and bizarre the story, the more likely it is to be true. | :23:42. | :23:46. | |
Neal has done amazing things. He knows no limits. | :23:47. | :23:47. | |
In the film ` called Marvellous, ` Neil is played | :23:48. | :23:49. | |
by distinguished actor Toby Jones whose previous roles have included | :23:50. | :23:52. | |
It was an article in a national newspaper that | :23:53. | :24:00. | |
inspired the writer Peter Bowker to make his film about Neil. | :24:01. | :24:08. | |
It is his attitude to life and his attitude to meeting new people. | :24:09. | :24:14. | |
There is with the assumption that people are going to say yes. And | :24:15. | :24:17. | |
then they generally do! Neil's innocent, almost childlike | :24:18. | :24:18. | |
character has seen him mixing with many famous faces such as World | :24:19. | :24:21. | |
Cup`winning goalkeeper Gordon Banks. I would say Prince Edward. Because I | :24:22. | :24:36. | |
met him when he was a student at Cambridge. And I knocked on his | :24:37. | :24:42. | |
door! I thought there would be a policeman on duty but there wasn't. | :24:43. | :24:44. | |
He invited me in for a sherry. The filmmakers have endeavoured to | :24:45. | :24:47. | |
include the people of Stoke This choir is rehearsing a number | :24:48. | :24:50. | |
which they'll perform in a scene Celebrities like Gary Lineker also | :24:51. | :24:54. | |
have cameo roles ` but there's no doubt who the true star of this | :24:55. | :25:00. | |
life`affirming movie will be. Some welcome sunshine around today ` | :25:01. | :25:11. | |
but will it last Rebecca? We will have another day of it that | :25:12. | :25:24. | |
things may take a more stormy turn towards the weekend. But tomorrow, | :25:25. | :25:34. | |
plenty of dry and bright weather. Tomorrow, we may feel some warm air | :25:35. | :25:37. | |
from the continent and things may turn muddy as we head through the | :25:38. | :25:41. | |
afternoon. This time yesterday we had been sitting under a blanket of | :25:42. | :25:45. | |
cloud and rain for the whole day. Today, it has broken up rather | :25:46. | :25:49. | |
nicely. We still have some clear spells to, commerce and late | :25:50. | :25:53. | |
afternoon sunshine to enjoy and those skies staying clear for most | :25:54. | :25:57. | |
of us. Temperatures will fall away as a result of that and it will be a | :25:58. | :26:01. | |
chilly nights. We are into single figures, in the countryside even | :26:02. | :26:05. | |
lower. There is some cloud filling up from the south as we head into | :26:06. | :26:09. | |
tomorrow morning. That will help lift temperatures a little. The | :26:10. | :26:13. | |
cloud will not stick around long animal break`up. Again, we will get | :26:14. | :26:18. | |
some good spells of sunshine. There will be some high cloud about and | :26:19. | :26:21. | |
the sunshine will be hazy. But as we will get some good spells of | :26:22. | :26:24. | |
sunshine. There will be some high cloud about and the sunshine will be | :26:25. | :26:27. | |
hazy. But as people in that warm air our temperatures rocket bike up into | :26:28. | :26:29. | |
the 20s. Back up to 22 Celsius tomorrow and murky as we head | :26:30. | :26:33. | |
through the afternoon. However, as the skies clear it does mean | :26:34. | :26:37. | |
temperatures will not fall away overnight. It will be a close night | :26:38. | :26:43. | |
with temperatures between 13 and 17 Celsius, those are the lows. That is | :26:44. | :26:47. | |
a hint of what is to come on Saturday. We have a Yellow Weather | :26:48. | :26:51. | |
Warning in place from the Met Office for heavy rain through Saturday. We | :26:52. | :26:55. | |
will have some quite lively thunderstorms and it could lead to | :26:56. | :26:59. | |
some localised flooding and this is why: As this weather system starts | :27:00. | :27:04. | |
to come up against the mild, unstable air, it may trigger lively | :27:05. | :27:09. | |
thunderstorms. The good news is that they will eventually clear away and | :27:10. | :27:13. | |
things will become a little fresher. Sunday looks like a pleasant today | :27:14. | :27:17. | |
with as good spells of sunshine. We have get through Saturday at first. | :27:18. | :27:30. | |
Our headlines again. Two schools have been placed in special measures | :27:31. | :27:31. | |
in the Midlands. I'll be back at ten o'clock with | :27:32. | :27:33. | |
