The headlines tonight: Targeting paedophiles online, | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
the Hereford man posing as a 14-year-old girl | :00:08. | :00:09. | |
on the internet - and getting texts and emails in response. | :00:10. | :00:12. | |
They build up to it, if that makes sense. | :00:13. | :00:14. | |
"Do you want to lose your virginity, babe?" | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
We'll be asking if this is the right way to go about catching | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
Reducing overcrowding on our trains - | :00:22. | :00:28. | |
a multi-million pound Midlands Rail hub gets Government backing. | :00:29. | :00:31. | |
Taking to the skies in the plane her daughter helped to build, | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
the mother of murdered teenager Georgia Williams. | :00:35. | :00:36. | |
She'll be laughing at me, actually, because I'll be doing this | :00:37. | :00:39. | |
and she'll be thinking, "Ha-ha! | :00:40. | :00:40. | |
"I've made Mum do something exciting for a change." | :00:41. | :00:47. | |
The hoard of gold hidden inside a piano - | :00:48. | :00:49. | |
a collection of sovereign coins, but the owner is still a mystery. | :00:50. | :00:54. | |
And with rain on the way and the Cheltenham Gold Cup | :00:55. | :00:57. | |
taking place tomorrow, bets on for it staying dry, | :00:58. | :00:59. | |
but don't place them until you've heard the forecast, | :01:00. | :01:01. | |
A father of three from Hereford, who set up a group targeting | :01:02. | :01:25. | |
online paedophiles - says he's had sleepless nights - | :01:26. | :01:27. | |
after men sent explicit pictures to his fake profile. | :01:28. | :01:29. | |
David Poole poses as a 14-year-old girl, on an online dating site. | :01:30. | :01:32. | |
He's also met several alleged offenders in "sting" operations - | :01:33. | :01:34. | |
before calling the police and giving evidence of their conversations. | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
Sarah Bishop's report contains details of a sexual nature. | :01:38. | :01:46. | |
An underage 16-year-old cannot consent to sex, right? | :01:47. | :01:51. | |
David Poole confronts a man he claims has been | :01:52. | :01:54. | |
chatting to a fictitious 14-year-old girl online. | :01:55. | :01:56. | |
Jason is saying to him, keep your hands on the wheel. | :01:57. | :01:58. | |
The man has allegedly sent indecent photos of himself | :01:59. | :02:00. | |
and is expecting to have sex, when all the time, he has | :02:01. | :02:03. | |
been messaging David, a father of three from Hereford. | :02:04. | :02:06. | |
They're all choking to say it literally straightaway. | :02:07. | :02:09. | |
They all want to talk about sex straightaway. | :02:10. | :02:11. | |
"Do you want to lose your virginity, babe?" | :02:12. | :02:26. | |
It was the death of his own son Brandon, he says, | :02:27. | :02:29. | |
The 16-year-old choked on his own vomit at a party 18 months ago. | :02:30. | :02:33. | |
He was gay and had been harassed online. | :02:34. | :02:35. | |
He used to show me, like, "Oh, Dad, look at this." | :02:36. | :02:38. | |
And there would be married men - straight, married men sending | :02:39. | :02:40. | |
in ones wanting to have sex with a 14-year-old boy. | :02:41. | :02:43. | |
If a child has got access to the Internet, the predators can | :02:44. | :02:46. | |
It pretty much has taken over my life, yeah. | :02:47. | :02:57. | |
West Mercia Police say, whilst they realise paedophilia | :02:58. | :02:59. | |
is a very emotive subject, they don't encourage members | :03:00. | :03:01. | |
of the public to take the low into their own hands, | :03:02. | :03:03. | |
as it could compromise their own investigations. | :03:04. | :03:05. | |
Saying that, Mr Poole tells us he's had many letters of support. | :03:06. | :03:08. | |
In fact, some people are so impressed with what he's | :03:09. | :03:10. | |
doing, they've offered him tens of thousands of pounds | :03:11. | :03:13. | |
Mr Poole uses an old photo of his partner for his online profile. | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
What does it feel like, knowing that it's your picture | :03:18. | :03:20. | |
Quite sickening, but then, it's for a good cause, | :03:21. | :03:24. | |
so I'm not really that bothered about it, to be honest. | :03:25. | :03:27. | |
Another sting Mr Poole has done has resulted in a prosecution. | :03:28. | :03:38. | |
He says he's now in contact online with at least 40 different men, | :03:39. | :03:41. | |
He says he's doing a public service, trying to make Hereford a no-go | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
Sarah Bishop, BBC Midlands Today in Hereford. | :03:46. | :03:54. | |
Joining us now is Neil Henderson, Chief Executive of Safeline, | :03:55. | :03:56. | |
a charity based in Warwick which runs a helpline for people | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
I can understand why he would want to do this. We deal with victims of | :04:02. | :04:20. | |
child sexual abuse every day, and at the most devastating thing that | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
could happen. But we don't think this is the right thing to do. | :04:25. | :04:30. | |
Firstly, it can compromise police investigations, and often the | :04:31. | :04:33. | |
evidence they collect isn't worthwhile in court. Only a small | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
amount of cases go to court, often because of the evidence like this. | :04:38. | :04:42. | |
The other issue for me is that targeting people is incredibly risky | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
to them and very risky to the family. Often, these people have | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
been affected by sexual abuse themselves. The chief constable said | :04:52. | :04:57. | |
forces were at saturation point with the number of cases. So is the case | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
in the way for the public helping the police in some way? Absolutely. | :05:03. | :05:09. | |
How? We run projects exactly to protect young people like this. It's | :05:10. | :05:15. | |
all about educating young people themselves and it's also about | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
supporting parents and teachers. They have a massive role to identify | :05:20. | :05:24. | |
the signs of grooming and Internet abuse. We do a lot of work with | :05:25. | :05:27. | |
young people. We probably get more disclosures than people would get in | :05:28. | :05:34. | |
this way. We use that intelligence to help the police have that helps | :05:35. | :05:40. | |
them to target his efforts. What are early warning signs for young | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
people? Being on social media too much, being on the interdict to | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
much, it's incredibly dangerous. Parents and teachers have a massive | :05:50. | :05:52. | |
role to play in protecting young people. | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
A multi-million pound plan to prevent overcrowding on trains | :05:57. | :05:58. | |
in the West Midlands has gained Government backing. | :05:59. | :06:00. | |
The Midlands Rail Hub will provide much needed additional | :06:01. | :06:03. | |
capacity on the rail network over the next decade. | :06:04. | :06:05. | |
The scheme - part of a major regional strategy - | :06:06. | :06:07. | |
should mean more trains and thousands of extra | :06:08. | :06:09. | |
Here's our transport correspondent, Peter Plisner. | :06:10. | :06:11. | |
The region's rail network is busy and getting busier - | :06:12. | :06:14. | |
rail's share of the travel market has doubled over the last 15 years, | :06:15. | :06:17. | |
and some expect similar growth going forward. | :06:18. | :06:19. | |
Yes, I think it's definitely something that is needed. | :06:20. | :06:22. | |
More trains, more often, would probably be a better solution | :06:23. | :06:25. | |
And that's why the Midlands Rail Hub scheme is seen as so important. | :06:26. | :06:32. | |
Designed by the Government backed Midlands Connect | :06:33. | :06:34. | |
transport partnership - it's proposing several measures | :06:35. | :06:35. | |
designed at delivering big capacity improvements. | :06:36. | :06:40. | |
And some of the extra space for trains will be created | :06:41. | :06:43. | |
by re-opening this platform at Snow Hill station. | :06:44. | :06:45. | |
Until last year it was used by the Metro. | :06:46. | :06:49. | |
Another of the big ideas involves opening up these disused platforms | :06:50. | :06:52. | |
at Birmingham's Moor Street station, and using them for Cross Country | :06:53. | :06:55. | |
services that currently stop at nearby New Street Station. | :06:56. | :06:57. | |
Bringing the trains out of there and into here could add | :06:58. | :07:00. | |
more capacity at New Street, that could be used for | :07:01. | :07:02. | |
And to allow that to happen, a special flyover is needed | :07:03. | :07:14. | |
here at Bordesley to connect that line, which runs into | :07:15. | :07:17. | |
New Street to this line, which runs into Moor Street. | :07:18. | :07:20. | |
And in addition to the changes at Birmingham stations | :07:21. | :07:28. | |
And in addition to the changes at Birmingham stations and the flyover, | :07:29. | :07:30. | |
the Midlands Rail Hub would also see major | :07:31. | :07:32. | |
engineering work at Water Orton in North Warwickshire | :07:33. | :07:34. | |
and Kings Norton, in south Birmingham. | :07:35. | :07:36. | |
Midlands Connect is also hoping new signalling technolgy | :07:37. | :07:38. | |
At its peak, it will take an additional ten trains per hour | :07:39. | :07:42. | |
We calculate that about 85,000 seats a day. | :07:43. | :07:47. | |
Platform and train lengthening is already planned to | :07:48. | :07:49. | |
help overcrowding now - if it's funded, the Midlands | :07:50. | :07:51. | |
Rail Hub will be phased in over the next decade. | :07:52. | :07:53. | |
You've been getting in touch with thoughts | :07:54. | :08:04. | |
Glenn Raybone says "A better plan would be to have more carriages." | :08:05. | :08:09. | |
Stuart Winsor wrote "More station capacity is fine, | :08:10. | :08:11. | |
but we need the line capacity to go with it." | :08:12. | :08:13. | |
Toby in Sutton Coldfield commented "if the trains were on time | :08:14. | :08:16. | |
And Shaukat Abbas says "open up the line between Stourbridge | :08:17. | :08:19. | |
and Walsall, this would stop commuters changing in Birmingham | :08:20. | :08:22. | |
John Ingram was terrified of operations - despite that fear | :08:23. | :08:30. | |
he went under the knife twice, when he was told he may | :08:31. | :08:32. | |
Today he's been giving evidence at the trial of breast surgeon, | :08:33. | :08:41. | |
Ian Paterson, who's charged with 20 counts of malicious | :08:42. | :08:43. | |
The prosecution say Mr Ingram's operations were unnecessary. | :08:44. | :08:51. | |
Our Health Correspondent Michele Paduano was at court. | :08:52. | :08:59. | |
Why did John Ingram go and see mr Patterson? | :09:00. | :09:04. | |
He had a lamp, so they went and had an ultrasound scan and then had a | :09:05. | :09:13. | |
biopsy. He was taught that if they send the line was no cancer and the | :09:14. | :09:19. | |
other end was no cancer, he was part of the way along and he recommended | :09:20. | :09:25. | |
a lumpectomy. Mr Ingram had previous bad surgical experience and he was | :09:26. | :09:29. | |
terrified. He was found sitting in the corner and crying. It took | :09:30. | :09:34. | |
another week and he had to be sedated to have the surgery. Why did | :09:35. | :09:39. | |
he have both breasts removed? When he resigned, he said Mr Paterson was | :09:40. | :09:43. | |
grim faced and said the results have been worse than expected and he | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
recommended having both breasts removed. When he was challenged | :09:48. | :09:53. | |
about this, he said, did I consent to sign a consent form? | :09:54. | :10:08. | |
I understand that an independent surgeon reviewed this case. Yes, Mr | :10:09. | :10:15. | |
Moneypenny has reviewed the case and he was asked if he needed surgery | :10:16. | :10:24. | |
are told. He said, no, none at all. You was asked if any reasonable | :10:25. | :10:27. | |
surgeon would have recommended having both breasts removed, and he | :10:28. | :10:33. | |
said, now they would not. He said there had been no cancer toll. Mr | :10:34. | :10:38. | |
Ingram says he has been in pain ever since. | :10:39. | :10:50. | |
He says that for the past ten years, he has had to take medication to | :10:51. | :10:54. | |
control that pain. Thank you. Sandwell Council says | :10:55. | :11:05. | |

in a plane her late 17-year-old Georgia was a member | :12:03. | :12:07. | |
of an after school club that was building the plane kit, | :12:08. | :12:11. | |
which had been donated by Beoing. She was murdered by Jamie Reynolds, | :12:12. | :12:13. | |
before it was completed. Lynnette Williams is about to fly | :12:14. | :12:16. | |
in a plane her murdered daughter made, but didn't survive | :12:17. | :12:22. | |
to see it finished. I know she'll be up there today | :12:23. | :12:24. | |
with me and she'll be laughing at me, actually, | :12:25. | :12:27. | |
because I'll be doing this "I've made Mum do something | :12:28. | :12:29. | |
exciting for a change." She took off from Wolverhampton | :12:30. | :12:35. | |
Halfpenny Green Airport with one of the pilots who helped Georgia | :12:36. | :12:37. | |

in a sexually motivated attack near her home in Wellington | :12:41. | :12:44. | |
by Jamie Reynolds, who's now serving I'm sat here thinking which bits | :12:45. | :12:47. | |
did Georgia work on. It's quite strange, | :12:48. | :12:56. | |
really, isn't it? I think you're sitting | :12:57. | :12:58. | |

grandparents and the schoolteacher who spent hours helping Georgia | :13:14. | :13:15. | |
and others build the plane. It's a thing she was very | :13:16. | :13:22. | |
enthusiastic about, Georgia. We've always said that | :13:23. | :13:30. | |
when the plane flies, Georgia flies, that's the whole idea | :13:31. | :13:33. | |
behind the plane. Beautiful sunshine welcomed | :13:34. | :13:34. | |

in a way, in that it's been I feel that her DNA is in this | :13:42. | :13:53. | |
plane, to a degree. Georgia had always wanted to take | :13:54. | :14:00. | |
the first flight in the plane and was learning to fly | :14:01. | :14:08. | |

previous appearance The Cheltenham Town manager | :14:35. | :14:37. | |
Gary Johnson will miss the next few weeks of their season, | :14:38. | :14:44. | |
after having heart surgery today. The 61-year-old was admitted | :14:45. | :14:47. | |
to hospital at the weekend. The club say the surgery | :14:48. | :14:52. | |
was straightforward - and Johnson should make a swift | :14:53. | :14:53. | |
and full recovery. Herefordshire's champion jockey, | :14:54. | :14:58. | |
Richard Johnson, is hoping to win the Cheltenham Gold Cup | :14:59. | :15:00. | |
for a second time tomorrow. He rides Native River - | :15:01. | :15:02. | |
who is one of three co-favourites. Johnson last won the Gold Cup in | :15:03. | :15:10. | |
2000 on board Looks Like Trouble - he's enjoying retirement | :15:11. | :15:13. | |
at the age of 25. Dan Pallett's been to see them | :15:14. | :15:15. | |
both on the family farm Three-year-old Percy can | :15:16. | :15:18. | |
help with the grooming. Looks Like Trouble won | :15:19. | :15:26. | |
the Gold Cup in 2000. He might be 25 now, | :15:27. | :15:51. | |
but you wouldn't know it He's won in a million and a perfect | :15:52. | :16:10. | |
gentleman. It's nice to have written a Gold cup winner and then have a | :16:11. | :16:15. | |
home with you afterwards. I don't think I appreciated at the time, | :16:16. | :16:20. | |
what winning the cup meant. Note 17 years later, I've probably really | :16:21. | :16:27. | |
only written to three horses that were good enough to win a Gold cups | :16:28. | :16:29. | |
since then. Could Native River bring that | :16:30. | :16:29. | |
long wait to an end? He's trained in Dorset | :16:30. | :16:32. | |
by Colin Tizzard. The seven-year-old wouldn't have | :16:33. | :16:35. | |
been on many Gold Cup short lists But this season he's won | :16:36. | :16:38. | |
the Hennessy Gold Cup and the Welsh National | :16:39. | :16:41. | |
and keeps on improving. I think it's just his attitude. He | :16:42. | :16:52. | |
jumps, he stays, he tries, he ticks all the boxes. I think the Gold cup | :16:53. | :16:58. | |
is a step up on what he has done so far, but he has given me that feel | :16:59. | :17:00. | |
that there's more to come. And no matter what happens | :17:01. | :17:04. | |
at Cheltenham, Richard Johnson and his children will still be | :17:05. | :17:06. | |
living with a Gold Cup winner. And we'll find out how | :17:07. | :17:12. | |
Richard Johnson does tomorrow. There's also full coverage | :17:13. | :17:14. | |
of the Cheltenham Festival on BBC5LIVE - online, | :17:15. | :17:18. | |
digital and medium It's been revealed that a hoard | :17:19. | :17:21. | |
of gold discovered hidden in a piano in Shropshire, | :17:22. | :17:27. | |
is a collection of sovereign coins. The money pouch was found just | :17:28. | :17:30. | |
before Christmas when the piano But before the find | :17:31. | :17:32. | |
is declared treasure - there's a final attempt to find | :17:33. | :17:35. | |
the original owner A piano, a piano tuner, who | :17:36. | :17:51. | |
discovered a hoard of gold sovereigns hidden inside, he mist a | :17:52. | :17:56. | |
day. You put them there? We talking about is central amount of coinage | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
here. There are a large number of them. And that's quite a lot of | :18:02. | :18:07. | |
money. At an inquest in Shrewsbury this morning, the Shropshire Coral | :18:08. | :18:11. | |
extended the time period with someone to come forward with a | :18:12. | :18:15. | |
legitimate claim to the sovereigns. If one does, the hoard will be | :18:16. | :18:20. | |
declared treasure. The most important thing is not what the | :18:21. | :18:23. | |
coins worth, it's a story that's gone behind them. In Edwardian | :18:24. | :18:27. | |
England, most homes or streets would have had a piano. The music system | :18:28. | :18:32. | |
of its day. Not many held a secret like this. In 1915, a gold sovereign | :18:33. | :18:39. | |
was worth a pound, which was 100 and 20p in the days of pounds, shillings | :18:40. | :18:44. | |
and pence. To put it into contacts, a pint of beer cost 3p, so with a | :18:45. | :18:49. | |
gold sovereign, you could buy 40 pints. Lolita scoring in the ward is | :18:50. | :18:56. | |
dated 1915. The First World War was raging, could the hoard had been | :18:57. | :19:01. | |
hidden by a soldier who never came home from the Western front? | :19:02. | :19:09. | |
Detective work has revealed that the piano was sold to music teachers and | :19:10. | :19:13. | |
Saffron Walden in Essex. Its last known owner was also a family in | :19:14. | :19:19. | |
Saffron Walden in 1983. And somehow it ended up in Ludlow. In 1915, the | :19:20. | :19:25. | |
piano would have been 11 years old, so it's already been someone's house | :19:26. | :19:31. | |
for 11 years. Maybe it's changed hands at that point and the new | :19:32. | :19:34. | |
owner has thought, that's a good place to hide my loot, or maybe it's | :19:35. | :19:40. | |
something more substantial. It is last orders for someone to come | :19:41. | :19:44. | |
forward. If they do, the mystery of the piano hoard could be solved. | :19:45. | :19:51. | |
Fascinating story, isn't it? BBC journalists of the future have | :19:52. | :19:53. | |
been getting a taste of the job Students from eight schools | :19:54. | :19:59. | |
across the West Midlands spent Rebecca Wood has been | :20:00. | :20:07. | |
speaking to some of them. Welcome to BBC Birmingham. This is | :20:08. | :20:14. | |
where the latest technology is being tested out. We have the latest | :20:15. | :20:20. | |
recruits, because School Report has been taking place. Chloe, what have | :20:21. | :20:27. | |
you been up to today? We went to the radio drama room, and I learned how | :20:28. | :20:31. | |
to use the equipment to do different types of sound effects, which I | :20:32. | :20:36. | |
never knew you could do. It's been a lot of fun. I also liked doing the | :20:37. | :20:41. | |
headlines with one of the group team things as well. It's all about the | :20:42. | :20:46. | |
latest technology as well. This is something that looks a bit strange, | :20:47. | :20:51. | |
we might get that in studio one day. And we might get this chap studio | :20:52. | :20:58. | |
one day. I has today been? It's been amazing, I really authentic | :20:59. | :21:04. | |
experience. I got to the news. What is this? It's a 360 degrees Camara, | :21:05. | :21:13. | |
so it's like this video, you can record video, which we've just | :21:14. | :21:18. | |
recorded. Pictures as well, if you posit, there's just a still frame | :21:19. | :21:21. | |
picture. Who knew that was happening in Birmingham? You've been | :21:22. | :21:29. | |
fantastic. We need to watch out, we have competition. School Report has | :21:30. | :21:34. | |
been taking place right across the Midlands, and this is Ronnie's | :21:35. | :21:39. | |
story. I am from Syria and I have been living in Birmingham for the | :21:40. | :21:42. | |
last three years. It was difficult at first, because we didn't settle | :21:43. | :21:50. | |
in, and we didn't have anybody to speak with and we couldn't speak any | :21:51. | :21:55. | |
English. My mum said at first that it was hard, and we didn't have any | :21:56. | :22:01. | |
friends round here, but now, we go to school and her mum goes to | :22:02. | :22:06. | |
college. We have lots of great French cheer. This is my best friend | :22:07. | :22:12. | |
Dominic, and he's my best friend because he is helping me with my | :22:13. | :22:16. | |
English in my lessons and we also play Xbox one together. Ronnie is | :22:17. | :22:23. | |
doing amazing. He joined this school year seven and has been part of a | :22:24. | :22:27. | |
small literacy group, which has helped with its literacy and English | :22:28. | :22:32. | |
and he has come on amazing. I think I'm picking it up well, because I | :22:33. | :22:36. | |
have been here three years and I came here that a young age. And my | :22:37. | :22:40. | |
friends are teasing me, because I am picking up their words. I say lots | :22:41. | :22:47. | |
of stuff in my accents and he copies it. I want to be a scientist or a | :22:48. | :22:56. | |
footballer. But I might be a reporter! I can tell that I have a | :22:57. | :23:06. | |
good future in this country. That is me Ronnie, for BBC Midlands Today in | :23:07. | :23:12. | |
Birmingham. I think Ronnie is a little bit of a star. | :23:13. | :23:16. | |
A ring road - not the most romantic of subjects for poets. | :23:17. | :23:18. | |
But a group of film-makers and poets have written a series of poems, | :23:19. | :23:22. | |
The "Disappear Here " project, has created films and verse | :23:23. | :23:28. | |
which they hope will make people reconsider the mundane aspects | :23:29. | :23:31. | |
Coventry's ringroad symbolises the superstructures of the the post | :23:32. | :23:35. | |
war boom and and the modernist reshaping of the city....now a group | :23:36. | :23:38. | |
of artists have decided to celebrate the concrete creation thorough | :23:39. | :23:40. | |
Coventry as a city is underrated. If England can present new | :23:41. | :23:49. | |
possibilities and opportunities if you have the right pair of ice. This | :23:50. | :23:57. | |
news of lorries and cars shape shifts between bowler and corpora. | :23:58. | :24:02. | |
Forked tongues glint and flick. I love the way it looks on the map, | :24:03. | :24:07. | |
with the looks and lips and lips, like a moose or not, with the city | :24:08. | :24:11. | |
in the centre. Every car that is going past, the people inside it | :24:12. | :24:26. | |
will have a different story. The ring road is miles long, but people | :24:27. | :24:33. | |
wouldn't say that they like it in the city. Do you love the ring road? | :24:34. | :24:44. | |
I can't say I do. I can't say do. Here, the blind cornice, Triangle. | :24:45. | :24:53. | |
The project supported by the Arts Council | :24:54. | :24:55. | |
and Coventry City council compares the ringroad to alien, | :24:56. | :24:57. | |
animals and cosmic planetary rings but according to one | :24:58. | :25:03. | |
of the poets its simply time to celebrate Coventry's concrete. | :25:04. | :25:10. | |
It's my adopted city and it's what I've been living for years. | :25:11. | :25:23. | |
And now it's hoped the city once famous for its cars will be | :25:24. | :25:27. | |
The spring sunshine in short supply today - Shefali joins us | :25:28. | :25:33. | |
We had a lot of ) today, bit of mysterious as well. It was a lot | :25:34. | :25:51. | |
cooler here earlier on, but in the north of the region and even in | :25:52. | :25:55. | |
central parts, we had some sunshine showing through. In the north, it | :25:56. | :26:02. | |
began to break through a little bit earlier on. Here, temperatures were | :26:03. | :26:10. | |
the highest in the region. Good luck for those of you heading off to | :26:11. | :26:18. | |
Cheltenham Festival tomorrow for the Gold Cup. It looks as though it will | :26:19. | :26:22. | |
be largely dry, but hold onto your hats, because it looks as though it | :26:23. | :26:26. | |
will be quite gusty. It is here that will see the best of the sunshine. | :26:27. | :26:34. | |
The winds at the moment are light, but this system moving in from the | :26:35. | :26:38. | |
north-west during the course of tomorrow will bring stronger and | :26:39. | :26:43. | |
rain, but right towards the end of the day. He doesn't really reach the | :26:44. | :26:47. | |
south-east until perhaps tomorrow evening. But taking a look at this | :26:48. | :26:52. | |
evening and we can see that because of this cold front coming eastwards, | :26:53. | :26:57. | |
we will see a narrow band of like train crossing the region. It clears | :26:58. | :27:00. | |
away quickly and in the early hours, Grainger spells developing. It will | :27:01. | :27:06. | |
be a cooler night than recent nights we have seen this week. Tomorrow, we | :27:07. | :27:14. | |
start off with brightness, particularly across south-eastern | :27:15. | :27:17. | |
corner. You will hold onto the sunshine the longest. But then the | :27:18. | :27:21. | |
clouds dreams in from the north-west and that rain will start to break | :27:22. | :27:25. | |
out in north-western parts towards the end of the day. Quite gusty, | :27:26. | :27:30. | |
with gusts of around 40 mph. That's all from me for now, I'll be | :27:31. | :27:40. | |
back with your late news at 10.30. It was the most beautiful view | :27:41. | :27:44. | |
I've ever been through. For one second, I was swimming on my | :27:45. | :27:51. | |
back, and I was looking to the sky. I was swimming across | :27:52. | :27:57. | |
the Aegean Sea. I was a refugee, | :27:58. | :28:02. | |
going from Syria to Germany. MasterChef is back, to find the | :28:03. | :28:18. | |
country's best home chef. The MasterChef kitchen is alive once | :28:19. | :28:22. | |
more. Come on, let's go! That's one of the hardest things | :28:23. | :28:28. | |
I've ever had to do in my life. | :28:29. | :28:35. |
