Good evening. Welcome to North West Tonight. Our top story. A tragedy | :00:07. | :00:11. | |
waiting to happen. Cockle pickers are rescued for the second time | :00:11. | :00:17. | |
this week, this time they were in a boat bought on eBay. The five | :00:17. | :00:20. | |
Polish fishermen are safe now but we ask what can be done to stop | :00:20. | :00:24. | |
people risking their lives again. Face to face with the City Council. | :00:24. | :00:31. | |

carpet as Bollywood comes to Blackpool. Another day, another | :00:58. | :01:02. | |
near disaster off the coast of lith p as the scramble to harvest | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
cockles continues. The local lifeboat rescued five men last | :01:05. | :01:10. | |
night. It transpired they had bought their boat on eBay. Today, | :01:10. | :01:14. | |
there were more calls for tighter controls on the activitys of | :01:14. | :01:19. | |
cocklers and for better checks to ensure only experienced fishermen | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
venture out into the Ribble estuary. Our chief reporter has been | :01:22. | :01:27. | |
following the developments. Home safely back to shore for these | :01:27. | :01:31. | |
cocklers returning to Lytham this morning. These have become every | :01:31. | :01:35. | |
day scenes on the shoreline, as hundreds flock to harvest the | :01:35. | :01:40. | |
Ribble estuary's precious crop of cockles. But this has become almost | :01:40. | :01:44. | |
a daily scene too. The local lifeboat was called out yet again | :01:44. | :01:50. | |
last night when a group of cocklers got into difficulties. Tfrsn't the | :01:50. | :01:55. | |
most seaworthy vessel. They bought it on eBay. It sounds as if they | :01:55. | :01:59. | |
weren't familiar with the area and the conditions they would be using | :02:00. | :02:05. | |
it in. Five lads in a bolt bought on eBay a few days ago. Not | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
seaworthy. Went out there, even missed the cockle beds and what we | :02:08. | :02:13. | |
have been saying for weeks now, there is going to be a fatality. | :02:13. | :02:18. | |
The list of tragedies narrowly avoided has become too long to | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
recite. Among seasoned fishermen returning to shore there was | :02:21. | :02:26. | |
frustration at the exploits of the inexperienced. It is crazy. They | :02:26. | :02:31. | |
want to get it sorted out. There is too many people taking risks. It is | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
not regulated enough. There is regulation, to an extent. Any | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
harvesting cockles should have a permit. To get a permit you have to | :02:39. | :02:44. | |
provide the authorities with proof of your identity, and your home | :02:44. | :02:49. | |
address. You then are sent on a day's training course. You go on | :02:49. | :02:54. | |
the waiting list for a permit and it is long. If you applied today it | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
would be 2014 before you stood a chance of getting one. The problem | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
is, too many of the people heading out there don't have a permit. | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
Don't have any experience. And don't really have any clue of what | :03:05. | :03:10. | |
they are getting into. So, with the rules being breached, has the time | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
come to close the beds? I would certainly hope it won't come to | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
that, but as I say, the great majority of the people out there | :03:17. | :03:21. | |
are operating safely. They are earning a good living. Officers | :03:21. | :03:25. | |
from the council are due to meet with the Fisheries Minister next | :03:25. | :03:32. | |
week to call for tighter controls. There are obviously lots of | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
questions that need answering. We have been calling the Fisheries | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
Minister every day asking him to speak to us but he has not been | :03:38. | :03:43. | |
able to give us an interview. We will keep tryingful If you think | :03:43. | :03:47. | |
the cut are bad wait until next year na. Is the message from | :03:47. | :03:49. | |
Liverpool City Council. A council which has already been one of the | :03:49. | :03:53. | |
worst hit in the country. Right now, members of the public are getting | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
the chance to quiz councillors about how the cuts are going and | :03:55. | :03:59. | |
where they are heading to. With tough decision ahead the council | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
says it wants ideas. Our economics correspondent is at Liverpool Town | :04:03. | :04:09. | |
Hall for us, is this a genuine search for ideas or a PR stunt do | :04:09. | :04:14. | |
you think? It is about ideas but it is also about transparency, they | :04:14. | :04:19. | |
need people onboard. They need to explain the reasons be hien it. Not | :04:19. | :04:26. | |
everybody here is cynical about it. But inside 200 people are being | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
given the chance to grill council leaders about the cuts and where | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
they will fall in the future. A kind of Question Time if you like. | :04:32. | :04:38. | |
So let us just look at the scale of the task ahead. They have had to | :04:38. | :04:43. | |
make �91 million worth of cuts in this financial year. Next year, | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
another �50 million worth of cuts. The year after that, another �1 | :04:47. | :04:54. | |
million worth, and the year after that, up to up to 2015 another �33 | :04:54. | :04:58. | |
million. In total �193 million worth of cuts they will have to be | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
found in the next few years. The council leader told me that you | :05:03. | :05:07. | |
know, things are going to feel difficult as those decisions get | :05:07. | :05:13. | |
more difficult to make. Last year we are trimming the fat, this year | :05:13. | :05:18. | |
we are into muscle and real pain. We have said all along things from | :05:18. | :05:23. | |
the council's point of view will never be the sames in terms of how | :05:23. | :05:28. | |
we operate, we are looking at taking �50 million out of a small | :05:28. | :05:32. | |
amount of money we have to spend. It means we won't be able do some | :05:32. | :05:36. | |
of the the way we have done them before. Talk us through that. | :05:36. | :05:40. | |
Behind that �193 million that you mentioned are real service, real | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
people. Exactly. They believe that more people are going to feel the | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
impact of this, and they will feel the pain. More than they have | :05:48. | :05:54. | |
already. We caught up with some of them inside a few moments ago. | :05:54. | :06:00. | |
main concern is I'm a carer. We get 20 hours a week break, for my | :06:00. | :06:04. | |
swhorpbgs is 36, suffers from mental health and learning disables. | :06:04. | :06:10. | |
If they cut that, then he won't be going out with anyone,ly have no | :06:10. | :06:16. | |
social life at all. My concern is over my daughter going to daycentre. | :06:16. | :06:20. | |
To go on the transport and I want to know is it going to increase | :06:20. | :06:25. | |
each time because she won't have any money to live on. It is the | :06:25. | :06:29. | |
youth that needs the money. And needs the backing, they have to | :06:29. | :06:36. | |
have a future. If u you neglect them it will be at your peril. | :06:36. | :06:40. | |
what cuts might we expect in the coming years? Council tax frozen. | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
The Government likes it. Can they afford do that in future? Probably | :06:44. | :06:49. | |
not. This council has saved 22 libraries, can they afford to | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
protect them in future? Probably not. The weekly bin service, they | :06:52. | :06:57. | |
will have to look at that. They have closed three nursery, four | :06:57. | :07:00. | |
Sure Starts are under review so big changes in the coming years. Back | :07:00. | :07:09. | |
to you in Manchester. Thank you. A Facebook tribute page set up in | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
memory of a teenager from Wirral who died after slipping from a | :07:12. | :07:17. | |
railway station platform has been targeted by internet trolls. | :07:17. | :07:21. | |
Offensive messages were posted on a site dedicated to Georgia Varley | :07:21. | :07:28. | |
who died after Liverpool's James Street station on Saturday night. A | :07:28. | :07:31. | |
memorial to Georgia Varley, and friends paying their respects at | :07:31. | :07:36. | |
James Street station this afternoon. A beloved daughter and grandaughter. | :07:37. | :07:40. | |
And a much missed classmate. Looking at the number of notes that | :07:40. | :07:44. | |
have been left here it is clear that Georgia Varley was a very | :07:44. | :07:48. | |
popular girl indeed. This one for instance from a friend says words | :07:48. | :07:52. | |
cannot describe how much I miss you already. Another one says "Rest in | :07:52. | :07:57. | |
peace Georgia, a girl who never stopped smiling." And then there | :07:57. | :07:59. | |
are the many floral tributes including these from her family. | :07:59. | :08:04. | |
All of them expressing grief at the loss of Georgia and many more of | :08:04. | :08:08. | |
course from her friend and classmates. This one from Rachel | :08:08. | :08:12. | |
which says to Georgia, you are the best person I have met and I will | :08:12. | :08:18. | |
never forget you. These are in stark contrast to those left by so | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
call trollers on Facebook. Many of them too insensitive to repeat. | :08:21. | :08:25. | |
think there is a lot of envy sometimes about memorial Facebook | :08:25. | :08:30. | |
pages or websites because usually it is people saying this person was | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
wonderful, we really loved them and we are going to miss them. If you | :08:34. | :08:38. | |
are someone who has grown up unloved, unwant and ignored. That | :08:38. | :08:43. | |
really can strike a chord with you. You can feel a deep envy and anger | :08:44. | :08:53. | |
:08:54. | :09:04. | ||
The number of messages show the trollers are in the minority. | :09:04. | :09:08. | |
Elsewhere in the news from round the north-west. The break way | :09:08. | :09:12. | |
football club FC United have won planning permission for a new | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
stadium in North Manchester. The 5,000 seater facility will be built | :09:17. | :09:22. | |
in Moston near Newton Heath. The club hopes to move there by next | :09:22. | :09:30. | |
September. The Preston MP Mark Hendricks says going ahead with job | :09:30. | :09:40. | |
losses at BAE Systems could force another recession. The future of 11 | :09:40. | :09:48. | |
of the region's nigh clubs hangs in the balance as biggest the biggest | :09:48. | :09:52. | |
club operator goes into admission. It runned Liquid, Lava Ignite and | :09:52. | :09:56. | |
Love Social, three of which are in res on the. It says all of the | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
clubs will stay open wheen a buyer is sought. Virgin Trains are | :09:59. | :10:04. | |
planning to add thousands more seats to their trains. It is after | :10:04. | :10:07. | |
the Government extended their contract to operate on the West | :10:07. | :10:10. | |
Coast Main Line until December next year. New trains will be scheduled | :10:11. | :10:16. | |
and more carriages added to existing trains. Next, more than | :10:16. | :10:20. | |
1,000 homes in Wythenshawe are still without heating or ho water | :10:20. | :10:25. | |
after a burst water main flooded gas pines Sunday. Engineers have | :10:25. | :10:28. | |
drained 50,000 litres from the system and they have been giving | :10:28. | :10:32. | |
out electric heaters and hot plates but many residents are struggling | :10:32. | :10:41. | |
to cope. It is another breakfast under the quilt for the six McCabe | :10:41. | :10:44. | |
children huddled round a portable heart. Their mum has been | :10:44. | :10:48. | |
struggling to feed them with no gas and one small hot plate. The kids, | :10:48. | :10:55. | |
they don't understand, they are having takaways, McDonalds, chipy, | :10:56. | :11:02. | |
everything. Jam butties. A nightmare. Currently we have 17 in | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
that area. Down the road at the National Grid incident room they | :11:05. | :11:09. | |
are trying to recorrect Carrie and hundreds of other families. Over | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
200 have the gas back on but engineers have to check and gain | :11:14. | :11:17. | |
access to 1500 properties and pump out the water that has got in. That | :11:17. | :11:22. | |
is a mammoth job. This is the low point where the water from the | :11:22. | :11:28. | |
burst main has flowed down to, they pumped out 6,000 litres from the | :11:28. | :11:33. | |
main system from this house alone. But they have more to get. An uing | :11:33. | :11:37. | |
cup full of water can stop the gas supply going to that property. So | :11:37. | :11:42. | |
the time to remove that water is taking a lot longer than we would | :11:42. | :11:47. | |
have anticipated but we are working continually to pump that out now. | :11:47. | :11:50. | |
Waltzing Matilda say their investigation show the water main | :11:50. | :11:54. | |
burst at a point where a new gas main had been laid an inch away. | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
National Grid say nay will carry out their investigation but their | :11:58. | :12:04. | |
priority is getting customers reconnected. For Carrie that can't | :12:04. | :12:14. | |
:12:14. | :12:14. | ||
come too soon. I can't wait. If you are overweight, over40, from an | :12:14. | :12:18. | |
ethnic minority or you have a family history of the illness you | :12:18. | :12:22. | |
are at greatest risk of diabetes. There has been a rise in the number | :12:22. | :12:26. | |
of people diagnosed in the north- west. In the past year more than | :12:26. | :12:33. | |
15,000 people have dn told they have the condition. It could put | :12:33. | :12:36. | |
further pressure on the NHS. Jonathon Trubshaw has had diabetes | :12:36. | :12:41. | |
for 15 years. He is being treated at the Royal Liverpool Hospital, a | :12:41. | :12:44. | |
centre leading the way in developing new types of care. | :12:44. | :12:49. | |
wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. It really does take over your life, | :12:49. | :12:54. | |
it does change what you can do and decide effects are serious. I am | :12:54. | :12:57. | |
grateful I have got on top of it. The pump is allowing me to put | :12:58. | :13:02. | |
those side effects to one side and concentrate on living rather than | :13:02. | :13:06. | |
worrying about it all the time. 15,000 people were diagnosed last | :13:06. | :13:10. | |
year, that takes the number of people in the north-west with | :13:10. | :13:16. | |
diabetes to round 350,000. The rise is mainly in cases of type 2 | :13:16. | :13:23. | |
diabetes, which accounts for round 90% of all diagnoses. You look at | :13:23. | :13:28. | |
any of the risk factors which leads to mortality from cardiac diseases | :13:28. | :13:33. | |
to smoking, it is on the way down. Diabetes and obesity are on the way | :13:33. | :13:38. | |
up. It is spiralling out of control. It is very worrying. Patients and | :13:38. | :13:42. | |
families are ultimately suffering because of this disease, and I | :13:42. | :13:46. | |
think we, as professional, and the Government have to take it very | :13:46. | :13:51. | |
seriously now. Today a health check roadshow was held in Oldham to | :13:51. | :13:57. | |
raise awareness of the condition. It is a paper base questionnaire. | :13:57. | :14:04. | |
People who are overweight, over the age of 40, and have a large waist | :14:04. | :14:07. | |
measurement, plus family history as well are at risk. With the rise in | :14:08. | :14:12. | |
cases comes a rise in cost to the NHS. Doctors say prevention is the | :14:12. | :14:21. | |
only answer. And still to come: Friends of ours. The Bury band | :14:21. | :14:26. | |
Elbow back home for a gig at Manchester Cathedral. And glamour | :14:26. | :14:33. | |
on the golden mile, Blackpool gets a taste of Bollywood. I think I am | :14:33. | :14:38. | |
going to faint. She is so beautiful. I am so shocked how beautiful she | :14:38. | :14:48. | |
:14:48. | :14:50. | ||
is. Hurs is -- hers is a story of struggle, strength and spirit. | :14:50. | :14:53. | |
Rachael Wakefield was ill from the age of 13. Her lungs failing she | :14:53. | :14:59. | |
spent much of her life on oxygen. 1 months ago she had a double lung | :14:59. | :15:02. | |
transplant, something she had waited so long for. At first all | :15:03. | :15:07. | |
was well but more recently she had been in and out of hospital. | :15:07. | :15:11. | |
Unfortunately, Rachel died last night with her family at her side. | :15:11. | :15:16. | |
But her legacy lives on. Because after hearing her story, thousands | :15:16. | :15:20. | |
of people signed up to the Organ Donor Register. Our health | :15:21. | :15:26. | |
correspondent look back on a remarkable young life. Brave, | :15:26. | :15:30. | |
determined and inspiring. Because of Rachel and all she did, said and | :15:30. | :15:36. | |
wrote about her illness. 20,000 people signed up to be organ donor, | :15:36. | :15:42. | |
the legacy she leaves difficult to put into words. Rachel was poorly | :15:42. | :15:48. | |
from the age of 13. Her lungs were badly damaged and slowly failing. | :15:48. | :15:53. | |
By the time she was 21 he was on the transplant list. I try and | :15:53. | :15:58. | |
think about it as I'm not wishing for someone to die, someone is | :15:58. | :16:04. | |
going to die. Why shouldn't something positive come out of a | :16:04. | :16:08. | |
tragedy? Just days later the hospital found a donor, and Rachel | :16:08. | :16:13. | |
was given new lungs. What was it like for you that moment when you | :16:13. | :16:18. | |
first woke up after having had that transplant? I was just thankful to | :16:18. | :16:23. | |
be alive, more than anything. Didn't believe it had happened at | :16:23. | :16:29. | |
first. It is just amazing. I can breathe. There is no struggle. | :16:29. | :16:37. | |
There is no effort. I can breathe and talk and walk at the same time. | :16:37. | :16:43. | |
Nice big strides if you can. Slowly she grew stronger. But then she | :16:43. | :16:47. | |
became poorly again, and was in and out of hospital as her lungs | :16:47. | :16:54. | |
struggled. Last night Rachel died, her family beside her, she was 23 | :16:54. | :16:58. | |
years old. Her mum and dad today described her as a very special | :16:58. | :17:02. | |
person and a daughter to be proud of. She may only have been a young | :17:02. | :17:07. | |
woman nay said, but we believe her legacy will live on in the many | :17:07. | :17:13. | |
more people who will benefit from a transplant because of what she did. | :17:13. | :17:23. | |
:17:23. | :17:23. | ||
So cruel isn't it what life can do. But our thoughts are of course with | :17:23. | :17:33. | |
:17:33. | :17:34. | ||
her parents. Now, when The Lowry art centre started planning a new | :17:35. | :17:39. | |
exhibition by the Manchester impressionist Adolphe Valette | :17:39. | :17:44. | |
something stranged happened. A curator stumbled on an envelope of | :17:44. | :17:47. | |
paintings of no-one knew economisted. The trouble is they | :17:47. | :17:57. | |
cannot be found. Adolphe Valette is better known as LS Lowry's art | :17:57. | :18:00. | |
teacher. Some of the paintings showing Manchester a century ago | :18:00. | :18:06. | |
are on display at the Art Gallery but now the Frenchman has his own | :18:06. | :18:10. | |
exhibition at The Lowry. It is a chance to see works that aren't | :18:10. | :18:18. | |
normally on public display. But still, there is something missing. | :18:18. | :18:24. | |
Some of his work has vanished. When the exhibition's curator travelled | :18:24. | :18:27. | |
to America to view one of the paintings, the owner mysteriously | :18:27. | :18:35. | |
handed her an envelope. I found amazing photographs of paintings by | :18:35. | :18:41. | |
Valette, but quite extraordinary, most of these paintings have | :18:41. | :18:47. | |
disappeared. In 1912 Valette existed at the Walker Art Gallery | :18:47. | :18:51. | |
and exhibited a painting called Dover Street. This could be Dover | :18:51. | :18:55. | |
Street. They would have loved to have thoen the pictures but they | :18:55. | :19:01. | |
may be lost forever. There was a house fire at his house in or | :19:01. | :19:07. | |
before 1928. That house was in or near ard wick Green. Obviously a | :19:07. | :19:11. | |

team can get into the Carling Cup final after watching them battle | :19:36. | :19:39. | |
through to the last eight. Manchester City and Liverpool also | :19:39. | :19:43. | |
won through to the quarterfinals last night. Everton were knocked | :19:43. | :19:51. | |
out by Chelsea and for Rovers it was a much-needed victory. The side | :19:51. | :19:57. | |
got the better of Newcastle 4-3 in extra time thanks to a winner. He | :19:57. | :20:01. | |
was the world's biggest cinema star making the equivalent of �3 million | :20:02. | :20:07. | |
a year in his day. His funeral attracted 150,000 piem, that was | :20:07. | :20:12. | |

documentary about George Formby reveals he was far from being the | :20:20. | :20:30. | |
:20:30. | :20:34. | ||
simple boy next door. The plot mace have been simple but the star | :20:34. | :20:38. | |
certainly wasn't. One of George's more unlikely fans is Frank Skinner. | :20:38. | :20:45. | |
He is in awe of his talent for the bangolele. Almost every fan plays | :20:45. | :20:49. | |
the ukulele, it is an interactive activity. George Formby was born in | :20:49. | :20:54. | |
Wigan into a show business family. His father was a huge music hall | :20:54. | :21:02. | |
star. But Formby junior's success was in the movies. He was a massive | :21:02. | :21:09. | |
film star. He made about 20 movies in between 1934 and 1946. He used | :21:09. | :21:18. | |
to get about �35 ,000 a film which is about 1.5 million quid so he was | :21:18. | :21:23. | |
big time. It was his wife and manager Beryl who sent his career | :21:23. | :21:28. | |
sky high. She insisted he dropped his father's clothes. Insisted he | :21:28. | :21:33. | |
wore evening suit. Insisted he put the ukulele in his act, so his act | :21:33. | :21:38. | |
was different from that of his father. From 1924 on wards, George | :21:38. | :21:44. | |
went up-and-up and up. Today the tunes remain as catchy as ever, | :21:44. | :21:48. | |
even who a modern twist. # What happened to that nasty man | :21:48. | :21:55. | |
# So pally with the tally van # Oh, oh, oh | :21:55. | :22:00. | |

are among the top five bl wood blockbusters of all time. We came | :23:16. | :23:20. | |
from Bradford all the way. We took the first train in the morning. We | :23:20. | :23:26. | |
have been here since 8.00. thought of being immortalised is | :23:26. | :23:30. | |
scary. But now there is two of me in this world, which is just | :23:30. | :23:39. | |
extremely humbling, and you know, such a big honour. When she agreed | :23:39. | :23:43. | |
to launch her figure we were over the moon. I was dancing round the | :23:43. | :23:46. | |
office. It's a great success for us. This exhibition is travelling round | :23:47. | :23:50. | |
the world. It goes to Bangkok, Shanghai and New York, so it is | :23:50. | :23:55. | |
going all over. The star missed the Toronto premier of her new film to | :23:55. | :24:00. | |
travel to Blackpool. The people are so warm here. It is like home away | :24:00. | :24:10. | |

from home. She is so beautiful. I am shocked how beautiful she is. | :24:10. | :24:15. | |
heart is beating so fast right now. I think I am going to faint. They | :24:15. | :24:19. | |
have a couple of months to recover before the waxwork sets off on a | :24:19. | :24:29. | |

world tour in January. It is all a bit racey. I think they melted down | :24:29. | :24:33. | |
Dave Guest's waxwork! Staying with show business and Elbow are at | :24:33. | :24:38. | |
Manchester Cathedral for a home coming gig. They are performing | :24:38. | :24:40. | |
alongside the Halle Youth Choir ahead of their concert they have | :24:40. | :24:47. | |
been visiting the places and people who inspired them, including the | :24:47. | :24:52. | |
Tem le Bar. When we won the Mercury, it didn't feel like we had won it | :24:52. | :24:56. | |
until we came here. There was a lot of peed we didn't know who heard | :24:56. | :25:00. | |
the news and when we came in with the award, we got a standing | :25:00. | :25:05. | |
ovation, and then it started to sink in I think what happened. | :25:05. | :25:10. | |
was Jo Whiley speaking to them. It is a worth a listen. There is a | :25:10. | :25:16. | |
theme going here. We have had holed wood star, Bollywood stars. Pop | :25:16. | :25:21. | |
wood star, Bollywood stars. Pop stars. Weather stars. Can't see the | :25:21. | :25:25. | |
connection. Yesterday we saw 6.8 hours of sunshine. Today, we saw | :25:25. | :25:28. | |
none at all. Don't you worry tomorrow, we are back on track and | :25:28. | :25:32. | |
I wouldn't be surprised if we saw six or seven all over again. In | :25:32. | :25:37. | |
between we do Valette rather chilli night in store. -- chilly. The rain | :25:37. | :25:41. | |
today has moved away, it is going up over the Pennines and you can | :25:41. | :25:47. | |
see it over the next couple of hour, and the region becomes almost dry. | :25:47. | :25:50. | |
As we get into the early hours of the morning, the map will start to | :25:50. | :25:56. | |
lighten in parts and that is where it will thin and break. This can | :25:56. | :26:00. | |
cause one or two problems because the temperature also start to fade | :26:00. | :26:04. | |
away. If you watch it it is not going to spread everywhere. It will | :26:04. | :26:07. | |
take time before the clear weather comes through and it won't be | :26:07. | :26:10. | |
bothering too many people. So three or four is the minimum temperature. | :26:11. | :26:16. | |
Five or six in towns and cities and maybe an eight or nine on the | :26:17. | :26:19. | |
coastal strip. There could be mist and fog tomorrow morning and that | :26:19. | :26:22. | |
breeze is light so it might linger for an hour. If you watch as the | :26:23. | :26:28. | |
sun comes up the cloud cover isn't there, and a few spots here and | :26:28. | :26:33. | |
there will start to thin and break. Look at this. This is almost wall- | :26:33. | :26:36. | |
to-wall sunshine. Yes you can imagine a bit of patchy cloud will | :26:36. | :26:41. | |
develop but for the most part it is a core bon copy of yesterday, which | :26:41. | :26:46. | |
was a nice day. With a light breeze temperatures will be the same as | :26:46. | :26:50. | |
day, 12 and 13 but the sunshine makes the difference. The outlook | :26:50. | :26:53. | |
for the next couple of days, through the weekend your | :26:53. | :26:56. | |
temperatures are mild. That is the positive thing to say. But the | :26:56. | :27:00. | |
weather itself is unsettled. But at the init looks like the rain comes | :27:01. | :27:06. | |
through in the overnight period. There is room for change. We need a | :27:06. | :27:16. | |
red carpet for you! We have been getting reaction on the come hers | :27:16. | :27:20. | |
story. Dennis saying don't forget the lifeboat which has been working | :27:20. | :27:25. | |
very hard. They all depend on donations so don't forget that. | :27:25. | :27:28. |
