Good evening. Welcome to North West Tonight. Our top story... | :00:08. | :00:13. | |
Killed on a training exercise in Kenya. A family pays tribute to a | :00:13. | :00:17. | |
fusilier married a few months ago. A full investigation is underway | :00:17. | :00:20. | |
into James Wilkinson's death. Also tonight... | :00:20. | :00:26. | |
Post one of those and you might have had a problem last Christmas. | :00:26. | :00:30. | |
Join us later in the new delivery centre to hear a promise. Snow or | :00:30. | :00:36. | |
no snow, these will get through. By royal appointment. When the | :00:36. | :00:39. | |
Queen met Yoko at Liverpool's new museum. | :00:39. | :00:43. | |
Fighting to get out of a life of crime. The Olympic hopeful grateful | :00:43. | :00:49. | |
to his sport. When I was 15, I started going out with petty crime, | :00:49. | :00:58. | |
robbing cars, doing silly stuff. Ho-ho-ho! Merry Christmas! | :00:58. | :01:01. | |
I'm at Blackpool Pleasure Beach where the famous laughing man just | :01:01. | :01:11. | |
:01:11. | :01:21. | ||
got even scarier. I bet you did not The Royal Military Police is | :01:21. | :01:26. | |
investigating the circumstances of the deaf or the 21-year-old soldier | :01:26. | :01:36. | |
:01:36. | :01:36. | ||
killed while on a training exercise in Africa. Fusilier James Wilkinson | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
died during manoeuvres with the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers in | :01:39. | :01:48. | |
James Wilkinson on his wedding day in July. His wife Sarah is seven | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
months pregnant with their daughter. The couple were bringing up Sarah's | :01:51. | :01:56. | |
two-year-old son Connor. Exactly what happened is unclear. But | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
James's wife says she was told he was shot while on a live firing | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
exercise with his regiment in Kenya. In a statement, his family said | :02:03. | :02:09. | |
being in the army was in James's blood. He was treasured by all who | :02:09. | :02:11. | |
knew and loved him. Colleagues described a funny, reliable, and | :02:11. | :02:17. | |
loyal friend and an excellent soldier. Horrified and shocked and | :02:17. | :02:23. | |
Sat, terrifically sad that such a tragic incident has happened. -- | :02:23. | :02:29. | |
shocked and sad. Training has to be robust and realistic. But it is | :02:29. | :02:34. | |
rare that we have an incident of this sort. Deaths like James's, | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
which happen outside combat operations, are treated slightly | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
different way by the Ministry of Defence. No formal announcement is | :02:40. | :02:44. | |
made. And a different method of repatriation is used. But the | :02:44. | :02:48. | |
family are given exactly the same level of support. And the soldier | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
is entitled to a full military funeral. James's wife Sarah says | :02:51. | :02:56. | |
she wanted to honour his memory by releasing details of his death. | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
Around one year ago, James Wilkinson wandered into this | :02:59. | :03:05. | |
building, like many do, and signed up for a career in the army. Now he | :03:05. | :03:10. | |
is the latest soldier from this regiment to lose his life. | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
The Ministry of Defence says it is carrying out a full investigation | :03:13. | :03:23. | |
:03:23. | :03:23. | ||
into how James died. Last Christmas, we were inundated | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
with complaints about Royal Mail. There was the Christmas card that | :03:27. | :03:32. | |
arrived in March. The parcels that never arrived. And for too long, it | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
seemed, Royal Mail said things were running smoothly. Of course, last | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
year's shocking weather played a big part. In the end, they did | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
admit things could have gone better. But this year, Royal Mail say | :03:42. | :03:50. | |
things will be very different. Here is Jayne Barrett. We did a lot on | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
this story. It was not just consumers complaining. But also | :03:55. | :03:57. | |
postal workers themselves, frustrated with backlogs. Angered | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
by the closure of many local sorting offices. So will this year | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
be different? Apparently so, because this year they have a | :04:03. | :04:13. | |
:04:13. | :04:15. | ||
secret weapon in Middleton. I never expected to wait this long. | :04:15. | :04:19. | |
Post men with 30 years' experience have never known such at disastrous | :04:19. | :04:28. | |
performance. Something seems to have gone on. -- gone wrong. | :04:28. | :04:34. | |
waited two months. Last Christmas was not the best, terrible meal, | :04:34. | :04:41. | |
huge backlogs. We are seeing this Christmas will be different. This | :04:41. | :04:45. | |
new parcel delivery centre is part of a �15 million investment with | :04:45. | :04:51. | |
the promise that parcels come in and out to the next day for first | :04:51. | :04:57. | |
class, the next day for second, no matter what the weather. We have a | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
much better process in place to manage the eventualities of snow. | :05:01. | :05:06. | |
So the parcels will go? definitely. Last year, everything | :05:06. | :05:11. | |
in and out of this region came here. Warrington with its state-of-the- | :05:12. | :05:18. | |
art machines, but they were swamped. We were e-mailed by frustrated post | :05:18. | :05:22. | |
officers showing the backlog. But now just parcels will be dealt with | :05:22. | :05:28. | |
you. They are already handling 10,000 parcels a day, Peking to | :05:28. | :05:33. | |
about a quarter of a million per day. But even with the bad weather, | :05:33. | :05:37. | |
they are saying they will get the parcels through because of this new | :05:37. | :05:44. | |
facility. This man will be watching. We met him when he was waiting one | :05:44. | :05:49. | |
month for four parcels from Belgium. Two never arrived and he is taking | :05:49. | :05:56. | |
no chances this year. And I am doing it myself, because I know it | :05:56. | :06:00. | |
will get there. He is still trusting his Christmas cards to the | :06:00. | :06:08. | |
surface, although I used that term lightly. Let us hope. -- trusting | :06:08. | :06:14. | |
his Christmas cards to the service. So you heard it here. Unless there | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
is a breakdown on a train or a lorry, parcels should get through | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
first class a day after it is sent. Second class two days after it is | :06:21. | :06:26. | |
sent. Here are the important dates for final deliveries Wednesday 14th | :06:26. | :06:30. | |
December for standard parcels. If you miss that, you will have to pay | :06:30. | :06:33. | |
for a first class recorded signed for delivery no later than the 20th | :06:33. | :06:38. | |
December. I am sure you will tell us how things are going. | :06:38. | :06:42. | |
Wayne Rooney has won a legal battle against the management from that | :06:42. | :06:47. | |
used to represent an. The Court of Appeal has ruled that the agreement | :06:47. | :06:52. | |
made when he was 17 was legally unenforceable. The company was | :06:52. | :06:59. | |
claiming nearly �4.5 million of the Brownies and commission. The judges | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
said that Rooney and his parents were unsophisticated in legal and | :07:02. | :07:07. | |
commercial matters when signing the agreement. | :07:07. | :07:10. | |
A power cut caused disruption at the Royal Preston Hospital today. | :07:10. | :07:13. | |
Power has now been resumed but the hospital cancelled some non-urgent | :07:13. | :07:16. | |
appointments as a precaution. They are now carrying out a number of | :07:16. | :07:22. | |
safety checks and say and there is no risk to patient safety. | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
A housing developer has pulled out of a major regeneration scheme in | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
Cumbria. Russell Armer was going to build affordable housing in the | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
area around the old lido in Grange- over-Sands. But today the firm said | :07:32. | :07:36. | |
it could not get the necessary finance. The remaining funding may | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
have to be covered by South Lakeland Council. It will be | :07:40. | :07:49. | |
discussed at a meeting in January. We could not decide over | :07:49. | :07:52. | |
pronunciations of that swimming pool. This lady could tell us. The | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
Queen came to Merseyside today to perform the official opening of the | :07:55. | :08:00. | |
Museum of Liverpool. Yoko Ono flew in from New York for the occasion. | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
Later, the Queen unveiled a plaque at the rebuilt Floral Pavilion in | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
New Brighton. Stuart Flinders joined hundreds of well-wishers. | :08:07. | :08:12. | |
It was all going so well. Phil Redmond gave the Queen an hour-long | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
tour of the new Museum of Liverpool. Yoko Ono had flown in from New York | :08:16. | :08:20. | |
for the occasion. Then Mr Redmond forgot to ask her to sign the | :08:20. | :08:25. | |
visitors' book. Her Majesty reminded him. That was just that | :08:25. | :08:30. | |
the 18th. He had to remember that was an important part of the day. | :08:30. | :08:37. | |
It looked like he got his hair cut. He was looking very smart. Outside | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
in the crowd, regular Royal watcher Colin Edwards saw the queen for the | :08:40. | :08:47. | |
140th time. I said, lovely to see you again, your Majesty, thank you | :08:47. | :08:53. | |
for coming to us. She then shake my hand. And I said, pleased to meet | :08:53. | :09:02. | |
Juett. I said I was looking forward to the Diamond Jubilee. -- pleased | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
to meet due. The Queen arrived in Liverpool aboard the royal train, | :09:05. | :09:08. | |
which pulled up at Lime Street bang on time. Sophia McDonnell presented | :09:08. | :09:13. | |
flowers. It was a good day. There was a brief stop at the Liver | :09:13. | :09:17. | |
Building. The Queen last came to the region | :09:17. | :09:21. | |
in 2008 when Liverpool was the European Capital of Culture. She | :09:21. | :09:27. | |
had been many times before. Her first visit, as Princess Elizabeth, | :09:27. | :09:32. | |
was in 1949. She met Ken Dodd in New Brighton, who is performing | :09:32. | :09:39. | |
there. He said he hoped she would stay for the show. | :09:39. | :09:45. | |
We do know if she did stay, or what she wrote in the visitors' book. We | :09:45. | :09:49. | |
love Ken Dodd. A lot of people work hard at their | :09:49. | :09:53. | |
jobs. But sometimes, some people really go the extra mile. As did | :09:53. | :09:57. | |
police officer Stephen Hopkins from Warrington. When there were no | :09:57. | :10:00. | |
witnesses to an attack on a local war veteran, DC Hopkins studied law | :10:00. | :10:03. | |
and investigated the case in his spare time until there was enough | :10:03. | :10:06. | |
evidence for a prosecution. He's now been nominated for a national | :10:06. | :10:08. | |
award. War veteran Edwin Stout was 85 and | :10:08. | :10:14. | |
suffering from cancer when attacked in his own home by a man and woman. | :10:14. | :10:19. | |
Money was stolen, and but there were no witnesses and little | :10:19. | :10:25. | |
evidence, so no one was charged. Stephen Hopkins was handed the keys | :10:25. | :10:30. | |
two years later. All the evidence was based on what he told the | :10:30. | :10:36. | |
family and people around 10. In my own time, I studied the law on here | :10:36. | :10:41. | |
say, human rights and criminal justice, looking for ways to try | :10:41. | :10:47. | |
and prosecute the case. It is a bit like Inspector Morse. When you look | :10:47. | :10:52. | |
at it, but this is reality and what we do with that level of commitment. | :10:52. | :10:58. | |
We do the best we can. Eventually, a woman pleaded guilty and was | :10:58. | :11:03. | |
jailed for four years. Edwin's granddaughter says the family or a | :11:03. | :11:09. | |
lot to DC Hopkins. He is one in a million, never gave up when the | :11:09. | :11:14. | |
Crown Prosecution Service wanted him to get out. He battled on, got | :11:14. | :11:17. | |
together with a Professor at Cambridge. He made them change the | :11:17. | :11:23. | |
law, so well done to him. It is not over. There is still the man | :11:23. | :11:28. | |
outstanding, the main offender, it is still ongoing. It is only a | :11:28. | :11:37. | |
matter of time before we get in touch with him. | :11:37. | :11:42. | |
And good luck to DC Hopkins. Still to come on North West Tonight... | :11:42. | :11:45. | |
Tracking down the criminals back in the lab. Lancashire's CSI team | :11:45. | :11:55. | |

searches for hidden evidence. And crashing out of the Carling Cup. | :11:56. | :12:04. | |
An apology after a disappointing performance. | :12:04. | :12:07. | |
Young Libyans in Manchester were amongst the first to leave the | :12:08. | :12:12. | |
safety of this country once the uprising began to fight for the | :12:12. | :12:18. | |
freedom of their homeland. Dozens of young men, some of them under 18, | :12:18. | :12:20. | |
spent months battling Colonel Gaddafi's forces. One of them, | :12:20. | :12:23. | |
Abdul, has been talking about his experiences. | :12:23. | :12:29. | |
Armed with guns, a group of young men from Manchester at Garratt | :12:29. | :12:39. | |
:12:39. | :12:45. | ||
Tripoli's main prison. Abdul is I was watching the news and my | :12:45. | :12:49. | |
friends said we had to go out and fight. After a week of fighting, | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
Abdul was captured and spent several months in the most | :12:53. | :13:02. | |
notorious jails. We were in a small room, 40 of us, we were sharing the | :13:02. | :13:12. | |
:13:12. | :13:12. | ||
food. You just want to die in that moment. Many youngsters from | :13:12. | :13:14. | |
Manchester's 2000 strong Libyan community left their families | :13:14. | :13:19. | |
behind to go and fight. I know some went without the permission of | :13:19. | :13:26. | |
their parents. There were concerns about their children. The families | :13:26. | :13:33. | |
in Manchester, in the Libyan committee he -- community, are very | :13:33. | :13:39. | |
proud. I do not want to go home yet. It is the first time I have lived | :13:39. | :13:45. | |
in my country. My friends are now like a family, living in Libya. | :13:45. | :13:50. | |
Eight months after arriving in the country, Abdul and his friends have | :13:50. | :14:00. | |
:14:00. | :14:05. | ||
decided their future is helping to shape Libya's future. | :14:05. | :14:07. | |
All this week, we have been watching Lancashire's crime scene | :14:07. | :14:10. | |
investigators at work out on the road gathering evidence. But what | :14:10. | :14:13. | |
happens to the potential evidence found? Tonight, we are looking at | :14:13. | :14:17. | |
the work done back in the labs. Dave Guest is at police | :14:17. | :14:23. | |
headquarters in Hutton. But I hope you are not disturbing them. I will | :14:23. | :14:28. | |
talk quietly. This is the Scientific Support Unit, with | :14:28. | :14:32. | |
experts analysing fingerprints to tracing even the tiniest speck of | :14:32. | :14:38. | |
blood. There is even a specialist footwear department. Many of the | :14:38. | :14:41. | |
techniques used are shrouded in secrecy. They will not want to tip | :14:41. | :14:45. | |
of criminals towards the tricks of their trade. But I was allowed in | :14:45. | :14:54. | |
to see some work and how it relates to the work of the CSIs. | :14:54. | :14:58. | |
Crime scene investigators gather evidence that the scene of a crime. | :14:58. | :15:03. | |
Forensic specialists establish the relevance of that evidence. They | :15:03. | :15:09. | |
are trained to spot signs others might miss. This is covered in mud, | :15:09. | :15:16. | |
but there are also traces of blood. We look for what blood looks like. | :15:16. | :15:25. | |
The basic least select one and -- be basically select one, apply a | :15:25. | :15:31. | |
chemical. If it goes pink, we can presume that is a possible | :15:31. | :15:39. | |
bloodstain. It is a possible blood- stained. We can go for work -- for | :15:39. | :15:45. | |
the for DNA profiling. Even for that? Yes. DNA techniques are more | :15:45. | :15:52. | |
sophisticated. Just from that, we can obtain a usable profile. And it | :15:52. | :15:59. | |
seems this has more secrets. It is coated in a mix of chemicals. It is | :15:59. | :16:02. | |
then put under ultraviolet light, revealing a fingerprint that was | :16:03. | :16:08. | |
not visible to the naked eye. When fingerprints are recovered, it is | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
down to people like this man to check the match any held on the | :16:12. | :16:17. | |
offender database. He has just scored. We have a fingerprint on | :16:17. | :16:23. | |
the paper chemically developed. We have made a comparison with the | :16:23. | :16:29. | |
national database. And you have proved the suspect? This is a new | :16:29. | :16:34. | |
one that will be revealed to the police. Adam is the food we are | :16:34. | :16:37. | |
specialists. He is examining impressions taken from the scene of | :16:37. | :16:44. | |
a burglary. We saw the CSI taking them yesterday. We have a good | :16:44. | :16:49. | |
where Mark left behind by a trainer. The you know the make and the style | :16:49. | :16:55. | |
just from that? He yes. We do not know what type of shoes made that | :16:55. | :17:05. | |
:17:05. | :17:07. | ||
mark. Because I do not know, I will use the computer system to help. | :17:07. | :17:17. | |
:17:17. | :17:19. | ||
And their eighties. -- it is. type of technology helps them keep | :17:19. | :17:28. | |
one step ahead of the criminals. An update for you. They have now | :17:28. | :17:33. | |
established that Sue connected to the family. But the trainers look | :17:33. | :17:38. | |
like the belong to one of the intruders. If you have been | :17:38. | :17:46. | |
following this week, sadly no arrests about the theft of our ring. | :17:46. | :17:51. | |
But with the teller machines, that investigation is continuing. Such | :17:51. | :18:00. | |
fascinating stuff. We were teasing him as he was filming himself in | :18:00. | :18:04. | |
the middle of crying scenes, because he was wrecking evidence. | :18:04. | :18:13. | |
Just to avoid doubt, he did know damage. -- no damage. | :18:13. | :18:16. | |
Football, and Sir Alex Ferguson has apologised to Manchester United | :18:16. | :18:19. | |
fans after his side crashed out of the Carling Cup last night. Fergie | :18:19. | :18:22. | |
said the defeat to Championship side Crystal Palace was not worthy | :18:22. | :18:29. | |
of a Manchester United team. Little change out of the Crystal | :18:29. | :18:33. | |
Palace team. Everyone expected Manchester to dominate. I do not | :18:34. | :18:38. | |
think Alex was bothered. Disappointed, I thought we would do | :18:38. | :18:48. | |
:18:48. | :18:51. | ||
better. Palace won 2-1. This is their first win at Old Trafford | :18:51. | :18:58. | |
since 1989, when the two clubs what more frequently. One player on that | :18:58. | :19:02. | |
day said that last night was a missed opportunity. A massive night | :19:02. | :19:12. | |
:19:12. | :19:12. | ||
for a lot of the young lads. They did not step up to the mark. United | :19:12. | :19:18. | |
would have faced Cardiff. City take on Liverpool. Liverpool have not | :19:18. | :19:22. | |
won for a long time. Keeping the Carling Cup is more reporting to | :19:22. | :19:32. | |
them? Definitely. -- more important to them. Winning cups get your | :19:32. | :19:38. | |
confidence going. The Carling Cup is certainly not a priority for | :19:38. | :19:41. | |
Alex Ferguson or Manchester United supporters. But what will have | :19:41. | :19:46. | |
concerned him is that players he will call on as the season goes on | :19:46. | :19:54. | |
seem to have underperformed. City are through to play for | :19:54. | :19:59. | |
Liverpool. But Liverpool fans will be disappointed tonight. The | :19:59. | :20:02. | |
Brazilian midfielder Lucas Leiva is out for the rest of the season. A | :20:02. | :20:06. | |
scan has revealed he will need an operation on the anterior cruciate | :20:06. | :20:10. | |
ligament in his left knee. He was injured trying to make a tackle in | :20:10. | :20:14. | |
the 2-0 win over Chelsea in the Carling Cup on Tuesday. | :20:14. | :20:17. | |
Tom Stalker is one of Britain's best hopes for an Olympic boxing | :20:17. | :20:20. | |
medal. If he achieves that next summer, it will represent a | :20:20. | :20:23. | |
remarkable turnaround in his life. Tom from Huyton was a teenage | :20:23. | :20:27. | |
tearaway until he discovered the sport which changed his life. In | :20:27. | :20:30. | |
the latest of his special reports with our Olympians, Steve Parry has | :20:30. | :20:40. | |

been to meet Tom. Devastated, he gave it everything. | :20:48. | :20:52. | |
He is World number one, a favourite for a medal, but his life could | :20:52. | :20:58. | |
have been so different. I was in jail. I was brought up right by my | :20:58. | :21:02. | |
mother, but when I was 15, I was involved in petty crime, silly | :21:03. | :21:10. | |
stuff. I was drinking on the streets, taking silly drugs. I am | :21:10. | :21:17. | |
not proud. It was a birth and death that changed his attitude. I turned | :21:17. | :21:26. | |
18, my daughter was born. I then went into boxing and have not gone | :21:26. | :21:31. | |
back. Nothing will compare to Mike Mullen -- compared to my amateur | :21:31. | :21:41. | |
:21:41. | :21:43. | ||
Jim. How does the church and boxing next? -- mix? | :21:43. | :21:48. | |
We used to going there every Sunday. We would be helping out the old | :21:48. | :21:54. | |
people. Some people saying boxers are bad people. Tom has become | :21:54. | :22:02. | |
Commonwealth Campion and picked up many medals. -- champion. I will be | :22:02. | :22:05. | |
the first to have their day medal in every competition, going down in | :22:05. | :22:12. | |
history. His current coach believes he can do that. I am not nervous, I | :22:12. | :22:22. | |
:22:22. | :22:23. | ||
know how good he is. He is so fast Anne Sharp. He has everything. | :22:23. | :22:30. | |
is like being in the film Rocky. have had kids running around | :22:30. | :22:38. | |
sometimes. I think it is because I am a normal lad from Liverpool, | :22:38. | :22:44. | |
doing well. I have the best support ever. Let us see what you do, some | :22:44. | :22:54. | |
:22:54. | :22:55. | ||
shadow boxing, then into a run. I kinky will challenge him to some | :22:55. | :23:03. | |
swimming. He is not as fit as he used to be. -- I think he will. | :23:03. | :23:07. | |
Next, you either love him or you hate him. But say what you will | :23:07. | :23:12. | |
about the famous laughing man at Blackpool Pleasure beach. One thing | :23:12. | :23:17. | |
he is is consistent. He's survived two world wars, and one major fire. | :23:17. | :23:20. | |
Laughing and rocking in the same slightly scary way for almost 80 | :23:20. | :23:23. | |
years. But this Christmas, he's to have a new, festive laugh. The | :23:23. | :23:31. | |
public was invited to provide it. If you spend your childhood | :23:31. | :23:38. | |
terrified of laughing man, you have not seen anything yet. After a | :23:38. | :23:43. | |
newspaper and online campaign, these were the final, or should I | :23:43. | :23:51. | |
say only, 12 contestants. After hours of practice, we saw the good. | :23:51. | :24:00. | |
Merry Christmas! The standard at best. Merry Christmas! And, as you | :24:00. | :24:09. | |
might expect, the slightly weird. Merry Christmas! After three long | :24:09. | :24:16. | |
heats, local Scott from St Anne's took the prize. Merry Christmas. | :24:16. | :24:19. | |
managed to catch him before he was whisked off to the studio. | :24:20. | :24:25. | |
Congratulations, how do you feel? This is the first time I have done | :24:25. | :24:33. | |
something like this. I do not know how I feel. This was not your first | :24:33. | :24:42. | |
shot at stardom? I have had 6 editions. I have a band doing | :24:42. | :24:46. | |
theatres and hotels. And now you have hit the big-time, how does it | :24:46. | :24:52. | |
feel? Good. So he took it all in his stride. Sadly, that couldn't be | :24:52. | :24:59. | |
said for the runner up. I worked so hard that this, it has been my | :24:59. | :25:04. | |
lifelong dream to be the laughing Santa of Blackpool pleasure Beach. | :25:04. | :25:10. | |
To come so far and have been taking away -- taken away, I do not know | :25:10. | :25:14. | |
what I will do next. In case you're worried, he joined the winner for a | :25:14. | :25:19. | |
pizza. You can hear the all new laughing man from Saturday. | :25:19. | :25:24. | |
That was funny. It is not quite master chef, but it is brilliant. | :25:24. | :25:34. | |
:25:34. | :25:39. | ||
He was good. Look at your face. The Globe tells you what you need | :25:39. | :25:43. | |
to do about -- what you need to know about the weather. The cold | :25:43. | :25:48. | |
weather digs in for the weekend and for next week. Do not expect | :25:48. | :25:52. | |
changes of temperature. A really cold night tonight, and frosty in | :25:52. | :25:59. | |
parts. Some showers today. Top temperatures not great. That is | :25:59. | :26:05. | |
something we have to get used to. You can see quite an act of line of | :26:05. | :26:11. | |
showers. I do not think those will laughed for too long. -- an active | :26:11. | :26:19. | |
line of showers. The cloud cover will clear later. Under clear skies, | :26:19. | :26:28. | |
temperatures zero 2-2 mac. Slightly higher in towns and cities. -- 0 | :26:28. | :26:33. | |
going down to minus two. We could have some ice on untreated surfaces | :26:33. | :26:43. | |
:26:43. | :26:44. | ||
tomorrow. Some spells of sunshine in parts of Cumbria. Then some | :26:44. | :26:50. | |
showers moving in, many places cloudy and dry, but some showers. | :26:50. | :26:57. | |
And possibly some sunshine, I am covering almost everything here. | :26:57. | :27:02. | |
Towards teatime tomorrow, turning cloudier and wait for many. | :27:02. | :27:10. | |
Temperatures not great. I am dressed like Santa's wife. I | :27:10. | :27:16. | |
could try and scare you. Lots of you have talked about your | :27:16. | :27:21. | |
experiences about the post. Let me share about what you. One man is | :27:21. | :27:27. | |
still waiting for his Christmas card from his parents last year. | :27:27. | :27:33. |
