Tonight with Jayne McCubbin. And Roger Johnson. Our top story. Was | :00:05. | :00:09. | |
Minnetta et down on her deathbed? Carers criticise the treatment of | :00:09. | :00:19. | |
:00:19. | :00:22. | ||
one of the country's oldest people. Never ever have I come across such a | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
bad service, which is opposed to provide a service to vulnerable | :00:25. | :00:34. | |
people. We will here for Daschle from a charity who says carefully | :00:34. | :00:38. | |
elderly is in crisis. Also in the programme. The convicted bigamist, | :00:38. | :00:41. | |
awaiting sentence after being caught on Facebook, tells us why he didn't | :00:41. | :00:45. | |
divorce. Rubbish is piling up in Liverpool because of a strike from | :00:46. | :00:50. | |
street cleaners about possible redundancies. Facing extinction. Why | :00:50. | :00:55. | |
this local might not be seen in Lancashire for much longer. | :00:55. | :00:59. | |
Remembering one of the Beatles most extraordinary concerts. How they | :00:59. | :01:03. | |
were smuggled into this park for the Urmston Show at the height of | :01:03. | :01:13. | |
:01:13. | :01:18. | ||
country, Minnetta Webb, died in the early hours of this morning. She was | :01:18. | :01:23. | |
107. Two weeks ago we reported how her family had been threatened with | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
arrest after taking her out of hospital, insistent she would spend | :01:26. | :01:31. | |
her final days at home. Which she did. Well, after that threat, | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
Manchester Social Services agreed that the right place for Minnetta | :01:33. | :01:39. | |
WAS at home. They promised on this programme to review her care. So did | :01:39. | :01:43. | |
they? Well, a new care package was agreed. Just hours before her death. | :01:43. | :01:47. | |
In a minute, we'll hear from Age UK on the impact of cuts to care | :01:47. | :01:54. | |
budgets. First this. Minnetta Webb died peacefully in the early hours. | :01:54. | :01:58. | |
Her family by her side. They were too upset to appear on camera today. | :01:58. | :02:06. | |
But her carers were not. I've worked in many fields of the care industry | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
and never ever have I come across such appalling behaviour via service | :02:10. | :02:16. | |
that supposed to provide a service to vulnerable people, the caring | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
industry. The family had gone through hell over the last couple of | :02:20. | :02:23. | |
months. They needed to fight what was right. They have been given | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
nothing. A month ago Minnetta was here. Manchester Royal Infirmary. | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
The hospital used a controversial power to try and keep her in, in her | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
best medical interests. But the family were insistent she should | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
come home. And when they did, they were accused of abduction and | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
threatened with arrest. Right now, Manchester Social Services has to | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
make �40 million of cuts. Two weeks ago, they promised to review | :02:45. | :02:48. | |
Minnetta's care. They said the situation had nothing to do with | :02:48. | :02:54. | |
money. But no new care package was agreed. Until yesterday. That was | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
when a GP agreed Minnetta was dying. At that point, the NHS pays for what | :02:58. | :03:03. | |
is now deemed medical care. Not social care. Her family were offered | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
24-hour care from a team of on-call carers. The family declined, wanting | :03:07. | :03:17. | |
:03:17. | :03:17. | ||
Minnetta's own familiar carers. This was accepted. Hours later the great | :03:17. | :03:23. | |
great grandmother died. I think they wanted to put Minnetta into a | :03:24. | :03:27. | |
residential home. I think it's because of the funding. It's a | :03:27. | :03:31. | |
cheaper option. To do that for her, it would have been cheaper than | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
having carers at home. I'm totally disgusted with them, how they have | :03:35. | :03:45. | |
:03:45. | :03:58. | ||
treated Minnetta. In a statement from Age UK who told me cases like | :03:58. | :04:07. | |
this were increasing. It is. It has grown worse over the past couple of | :04:07. | :04:13. | |
years. Due to restrictions on local government funding. And what we're | :04:13. | :04:23. | |
:04:23. | :04:24. | ||
finding is that particularly people with slightly lower levels of need, | :04:24. | :04:29. | |
to avoid being isolated for example, aren't getting it. We're talking | :04:29. | :04:34. | |
about not low-level care, but Minnetta was in her final days. The | :04:34. | :04:39. | |
council say this is not about money. But do you think there is any | :04:39. | :04:46. | |
evidence that, even in those extreme need situations, carers are harder | :04:46. | :04:51. | |
to come by? That's always been the case local authorities are reluctant | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
to provide older people with expensive care packages at home. | :04:54. | :04:58. | |
They prefer people to go into care homes. That's often to do with | :04:58. | :05:05. | |
savings. Even social services here tell me this is difficult. Who pays | :05:05. | :05:11. | |
what, when? It's very complicated. Is there any help people out there | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
to navigate their way through this? They ought to be. It depends on | :05:15. | :05:20. | |
locality. What would've happened to the lady if she had had no family or | :05:20. | :05:25. | |
relatives to fight her corner? That's often the case with older | :05:25. | :05:30. | |
people. Stephen Lowe from aid UK, thank you very much for your time. A | :05:30. | :05:33. | |
man awaiting sentence for bigamy has told North West Tonight he's sorry | :05:33. | :05:36. | |
for what he's done. Brian Frain married two women at Tameside in | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
Greater Manchester ten years apart without getting divorced. He's one | :05:39. | :05:43. | |
of only four people prosecuted for the offence in this region in the | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
last two years. This week he pleaded guilty and today he spoke to our | :05:46. | :05:56. | |
Chief Reporter Dave Guest. This is Brian Frain marrying his second | :05:56. | :05:59. | |
wife, unfortunately, he was still married to wife number one at the | :05:59. | :06:05. | |
time. Both ceremonies took place at this town Hall ten years apart. You | :06:05. | :06:08. | |
were in the registry office where you had been married ten years | :06:08. | :06:13. | |
earlier. You knew you'd never got a divorce. Did anything ring inside | :06:13. | :06:22. | |
your head to say it was a problem? It was in 1999, I thought it would | :06:22. | :06:28. | |
just be, like, dissolved, the marriage but my first wife. He says | :06:28. | :06:31. | |
that's because his first wife and he separated after just a few months. | :06:31. | :06:36. | |
But that first wife tracked him down through Facebook and wanted a | :06:36. | :06:41. | |
divorce so she could remarry. And then she saw this picture on the | :06:41. | :06:46. | |
social networking site. It landed Brian Frain in court on bigamy | :06:46. | :06:51. | |
charges which excepted. You tell the court your first wife knew about the | :06:51. | :06:58. | |
second wife but the judge described you as a liar. Yes, he did.Do you | :06:58. | :07:06. | |
feel any regrets? Yes, I feel regret doing it. I should've gone down the | :07:06. | :07:12. | |
right channels. He now lives with his new partner Donna on the east | :07:12. | :07:17. | |
coast and she says she will stand by him no matter what. He's not tried | :07:17. | :07:23. | |
to deny any of it and excuse himself from it, so he's held his hands up. | :07:23. | :07:28. | |
Because got found out. He genuinely didn't know, you generally didn't | :07:28. | :07:34. | |
know he was still married. bigamy, whilst rare, is still a | :07:34. | :07:40. | |
serious one according to lawyers. terms of his excuse, he didn't | :07:40. | :07:45. | |
realise that he wasn't divorced, I'm afraid ignorance of the low is no | :07:45. | :07:50. | |
excuse. -- law. In a month from now, Brian Frain will leave Cleethorpes | :07:50. | :07:55. | |
to face a Crown Court judge and discover what his sentence will be. | :07:55. | :08:00. | |
The maximum penalty for bigamy is seven years in jail. Brian Frain | :08:00. | :08:06. | |
says, whatever his punishment, he is now ready to accept it. | :08:06. | :08:10. | |
Some more of today's news now. The Liverpool footballer Raheem Sterling | :08:10. | :08:13. | |
has been charged with assaulting his girlfriend after an incident Huyton | :08:13. | :08:16. | |
in Knowsley last night. Sterling appeared at Liverpool Magistrates | :08:16. | :08:23. | |
earlier today and pleaded not guilty to assaulting Shanna Halliday. | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
Friends and family of Linzi Ashton, who was found dead at her home in | :08:27. | :08:30. | |
Salford, said their final farewells at her funeral this lunchtime. | :08:30. | :08:33. | |
Hundreds of mourners wore pink and released balloons with a message | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
attached in memory of the 25-year-old mother-of-two. Michael | :08:37. | :08:44. | |
Cope has been charged with her murder. Thousands of people have | :08:44. | :08:47. | |
been attending the Isle of Man's Royal Agricultural Show. The two-day | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
farming celebration showcases the best in Manx farming, produce and | :08:50. | :08:54. | |
crafts. Animals from across the island will be entered in | :08:54. | :09:01. | |
competitions. The other attractions include stunt shows. Rubbish is | :09:01. | :09:04. | |
beginning to pile up in Liverpool because of industrial action by | :09:04. | :09:08. | |
street cleaners and refuse collectors. The workers are in | :09:08. | :09:10. | |
dispute with the company, AMEY, which runs the cleaning services | :09:10. | :09:14. | |
under a contract from Liverpool Council. AMEY says it's offering the | :09:14. | :09:18. | |
unions a pay rise above the national agreed rate. But workers say the | :09:18. | :09:20. | |
company's refusing to negotiate. Here's our Merseyside Reporter, Andy | :09:20. | :09:28. | |
Gill. Overflowing, filthy and unhygienic. Bins in Liverpool city | :09:28. | :09:31. | |
centre haven't been emptied since 4am When street cleaners began a | :09:31. | :09:39. | |
24-hour strike. There's some sympathy for the workers. And some | :09:39. | :09:44. | |
disgust at the effect of their action. All the money that's been | :09:44. | :09:53. | |
spent in Liverpool, reinvested, it's a shame. It's absolutely disgusting, | :09:53. | :09:56. | |
all the rubbish today. The people should take it home instead of | :09:56. | :10:04. | |
throwing it all over the place. not good in peak tourism time. | :10:04. | :10:09. | |
contractor AMEY is offered less than 2% and the unions have concerns they | :10:09. | :10:13. | |
may be up to 60 compulsory redundancies among the street | :10:13. | :10:15. | |
cleaning staff. Street cleaners were picketing the contractor's depot | :10:15. | :10:21. | |
today. We won't accept any compulsory redundancies whatsoever. | :10:21. | :10:25. | |
The company are failing to talk to us. We've asked for talks with the | :10:25. | :10:35. | |
:10:35. | :10:44. | ||
company since Monday. In a statement But they are on a work to rule. And | :10:44. | :10:47. | |
that means a backlog. These bins in south Liverpool should haven been | :10:47. | :10:50. | |
emptied on Tuesday. Another one-day street cleaning strike is scheduled | :10:50. | :11:00. | |
:11:00. | :11:00. | ||
next Friday. Two years on from the rioting which broke out in the | :11:00. | :11:02. | |
region, Greater Manchester's Police and Crime Commissioner says the | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
government needs to do more to tackle problem families. A panel set | :11:05. | :11:08. | |
up to look at the causes and solutions gave 63 recommendations, | :11:08. | :11:18. | |
:11:18. | :11:19. | ||
but only 11 have been accepted by the coalition. The main argument is | :11:19. | :11:24. | |
please tell us if you intend acting on these recommendations, because | :11:24. | :11:28. | |
they have not responded to the report. The government's response | :11:28. | :11:33. | |
has ignored the recommendations of the panel. Now, that's silly. Maybe | :11:33. | :11:36. | |
the government doesn't agree with everything so let's have a public | :11:36. | :11:40. | |
debate. The government says it hopes to electrify the rail line linking | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
the Lake District and the West Coast mainline within the next three | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
years. Upgrading the ten miles of track between Windermere and | :11:46. | :11:51. | |
Oxenholme will cost �16 million. Engineers are installing the final | :11:51. | :11:55. | |
pieces of a temporary bridge across the River Weaver in Cheshire that | :11:55. | :12:02. | |
will carry 20,000 vehicles a day. It's part of a multi-million pound | :12:02. | :12:05. | |
restoration of the Sutton Weaver Swing Bridge and has been built to | :12:05. | :12:09. | |
help reduce disruption for drivers. The temporary bridge will open to | :12:09. | :12:19. | |
:12:19. | :12:22. | ||
traffic in September. Complaints about maggots in a bin and a man | :12:22. | :12:25. | |
wanting "pregnancy pills" are just some of the 999 calls that Greater | :12:25. | :12:29. | |
Manchester Police have dealt with in the last few months. The force says | :12:29. | :12:33. | |
the number it received went up by 19% in July and nuisance calls could | :12:33. | :12:35. | |
stop them getting to real emergencies. Elaine Dunkley has this | :12:36. | :12:45. | |
:12:46. | :12:46. | ||
report. Good afternoon, can I help Police deals with over 4,000 calls. | :12:46. | :12:49. | |
Some are real emergencies but increasingly operators are having to | :12:49. | :12:59. | |
:12:59. | :13:15. | ||
no other way to describe it. They are not even calls for the police. | :13:15. | :13:18. | |
The month of July has seen an increase in this sort of call. And | :13:18. | :13:21. | |
it's having a serious impact on police getting to genuine | :13:21. | :13:29. | |
emergencies. If you are ringing 999 four something like, I can't get | :13:29. | :13:35. | |
through to Dancing On Ice, my girlfriend is on Facebook and I | :13:35. | :13:40. | |
can't get a hair off, those silly calls coming to the police. If you | :13:40. | :13:43. | |
tie up the line, and someone has a real need for the police, they won't | :13:43. | :13:47. | |
get through to us. Police are reminding residents to only ring 999 | :13:47. | :13:51. | |
if there is an immediate threat to life or property. Or if a crime is | :13:51. | :13:54. | |
in progress. To report less urgent crimes, members of public should | :13:54. | :14:04. | |
:14:04. | :14:09. | ||
dial 101. Bonkers. They are one of our rarest birds of prey and used to | :14:09. | :14:13. | |
be found in Lancashire. But now the RSPB has warned that hen harriers | :14:13. | :14:16. | |
are on the brink of extinction. For the first time since the 1960s, | :14:16. | :14:21. | |
breeding pairs have failed to produce any chicks. Ahead of the | :14:21. | :14:24. | |
grouse shooting season, which starts on Monday, the charity has accused | :14:24. | :14:26. | |
gamekeepers of deliberately shooting hen harriers to protect the grouse. | :14:27. | :14:34. | |
Naomi Cornwell reports. I've been watching the hen harriers for nearly | :14:34. | :14:40. | |
40 years. They have a very graceful gliding flight, low over the ground | :14:40. | :14:46. | |
when they are hunting and they can twist and turn on a sixpence. | :14:46. | :14:52. | |
birdspotters like Tony haven't seen any Hen Harriers here for a while. | :14:52. | :14:55. | |
We keep detailed computerised records and if we look at the | :14:55. | :14:59. | |
records each year, we can see how the number increased and in the last | :14:59. | :15:01. | |
few years, decreased quite dramatically. This part of | :15:01. | :15:05. | |
Lancashire will be busy next week as parties come to shoot grouse. But | :15:05. | :15:08. | |
the RSPB fears that gamekeepers trying to protect those grouse | :15:08. | :15:14. | |
numbers could be targeting the hen harriers. They are being shot | :15:14. | :15:20. | |
because they will take grouse. We haven't had any breeding hen | :15:20. | :15:25. | |
harriers so we are deeply concerned about that. This has always been a | :15:25. | :15:28. | |
stronghold for hen harriers. Today the British Association for Shooting | :15:28. | :15:31. | |
and Conservation told us it condemns any illegal persecution of any bird | :15:31. | :15:34. | |
of prey. And will not tolerate such behaviour from its members. Adding | :15:34. | :15:38. | |
that the dynamics of the hen harrier population are complex. And it's too | :15:38. | :15:41. | |
simplistic to point to an absence of nesting pairs as proof of | :15:41. | :15:44. | |
persecution. In many areas, gamekeepers and conservationists are | :15:44. | :15:47. | |
working together. But the RSPB has warned that the actions of a few | :15:47. | :15:57. | |
:15:57. | :16:06. | ||
could be jeopardising the survival that is already up and running. The | :16:06. | :16:12. | |
Premier League is still a week away. Are we going to hear the end of Luis | :16:12. | :16:21. | |
Suarez? It's an ongoing saga but the owner says he's not going anywhere. | :16:21. | :16:24. | |
Sorry to talk about it again. He has left himself much room for | :16:24. | :16:29. | |
manoeuvre. This is what John Henry said. "Suarez won't be sold, even if | :16:29. | :16:33. | |
a foreign club comes in, because we do not have time to sign a suitable | :16:33. | :16:37. | |
replacement". The head of of the PFA Gordon Taylor also said it's | :16:38. | :16:40. | |
practically impossible for the Uragauyan to leave Anfield in this | :16:40. | :16:43. | |
transfer window. Suarez is currently training alone after trying to force | :16:43. | :16:49. | |
through a transfer. Wayne Rooney is also linked with a move away, with | :16:49. | :16:53. | |
Chelsea bidding for him. Is that a distraction for manager David Moyes | :16:53. | :16:56. | |
ahead of this weekend's Community Shield? Yes, it's been a distraction | :16:56. | :17:01. | |
for him, Jane. We don't expect him to play in the community Shield | :17:01. | :17:06. | |
against Wigan but it hasn't gone to plan for United in the transfer | :17:06. | :17:09. | |
market. Their key target Cesc Fabregas says he's staying at | :17:09. | :17:13. | |
Barcelona but a man who is observed David Moyes up close this summer has | :17:13. | :17:19. | |
been impressed by what he seen. dealt with it well, enjoyed his time | :17:19. | :17:23. | |
away with the players. Enjoyed the opportunity to begin to feel what | :17:23. | :17:27. | |
are being manager of Manchester United is about and you get that | :17:27. | :17:31. | |
when you go abroad because it can be a bit crazy. Next in Moyes' diary is | :17:31. | :17:34. | |
that 2.00pm kick-off at Wembley on Sunday. Another big occasion for | :17:34. | :17:44. | |
:17:44. | :17:49. | ||
their opponents. FA Cup holders Northern Soul music, Wigan seemed to | :17:49. | :17:53. | |
discover its football identity with that magnificent FA Cup win in May. | :17:53. | :17:56. | |
And now the man whose has put his heart and soul into the club is a | :17:57. | :18:00. | |
pairing for another proud day at Wembley and only the Premier League | :18:01. | :18:06. | |
champions stand in their way. For another bit of history. We can | :18:06. | :18:11. | |
celebrate we won the FA Cup and we are playing the great Manchester | :18:11. | :18:15. | |
united so our lads will enjoy it. It's going to be a great day. Go on | :18:16. | :18:22. | |
the pitch, and enjoy yourself. proud moment for you as well? | :18:22. | :18:27. | |
magnificent moment for town of Wigan, yes. Wigan 's squad has been | :18:27. | :18:31. | |
strengthened by the arrival of ten new signings, the latest James | :18:31. | :18:39. | |
McLean, from Sunderland. We've tried to do some good business and, given | :18:39. | :18:44. | |
what we will cope with the season in terms of the games, the Europa | :18:44. | :18:49. | |
league, the community Shield, the domestic cup, addition, we are set | :18:49. | :18:54. | |
for huge programme. Wigan sold 6000 tickets for the community Shield on | :18:54. | :18:59. | |
Sunday but it shows where the priority lies for supporters. | :18:59. | :19:03. | |
tickets are the same as last season and they took a healthy following of | :19:03. | :19:12. | |
more than 2500 to the opening game at Barnsley. A number of that will | :19:12. | :19:17. | |
sell before Sunday. They've got behind the club and it's fantastic. | :19:17. | :19:20. | |
Regardless if you are the biggest club or not, you have the fans who | :19:20. | :19:26. | |
want to see the team playing at a good level, quality football. | :19:26. | :19:28. | |
won't be another victory parade if they win the committee Shield but | :19:28. | :19:31. | |
for the chairman, it will certainly put a shine on a remarkable few | :19:31. | :19:41. | |
:19:41. | :19:41. | ||
months. Manchester United kick off tonight when they host Seville in a | :19:41. | :19:45. | |
testimonial for Rio Ferdinand. The pick of tomorrow's Football League | :19:45. | :19:47. | |
matches is Bolton-Reading in the Championship. Wanderers play a | :19:47. | :19:50. | |
number of promotion favourites in their first six games. But that's | :19:50. | :19:57. | |
fine by the boss. These teams I believe are very strong. We have got | :19:57. | :20:04. | |
to make sure that the ambition shown by these teams are matched by our | :20:04. | :20:07. | |
ambition in signing players and the desire on the picture will tell us | :20:07. | :20:11. | |
that. Rugby league now. Wigan Warriors welcome a number of key | :20:11. | :20:15. | |
players back into the squad as they try to regain top spot in Super | :20:15. | :20:18. | |
League tonight. Sam Tomkins, Pat Richards, Liam Farrell and Gil | :20:18. | :20:21. | |
Dudson all return after missing last week's win over Hull KR for the | :20:21. | :20:24. | |
visit of current leaders Huddersfield. The Giants have a | :20:24. | :20:28. | |
point lead over Shaun Wane's side at the top of the table. And there will | :20:28. | :20:32. | |
be full match commentary from the DW Stadium on BBC Radio Manchester from | :20:32. | :20:37. | |
8.00pm. Finally from me, good luck to Chester FC who are back in the | :20:37. | :20:39. | |
Conference after three successive promotions. They start their season | :20:39. | :20:49. | |
:20:49. | :20:49. | ||
at Barnet tomorrow. Good to see them back. It's a great example of the | :20:49. | :20:53. | |
fans refusing to give up on their clever. Have they still got a | :20:53. | :21:01. | |
sloping pitch at Barnet? I think, they do, yes. On the Hill. | :21:01. | :21:05. | |
Thanks very much. They played at Shea Stadium and the Hollywood Bowl. | :21:05. | :21:10. | |
Performed for huge audiences in Hamburg and Tokyo. The world had | :21:10. | :21:13. | |
never seen anything quite like the Beatles. Less well known is their | :21:14. | :21:17. | |
appearance at the Urmston Show exactly 50 years ago. It's an | :21:17. | :21:21. | |
extraordinary story. Stuart Flinders is in Urmston to tell us all about | :21:21. | :21:31. | |
:21:31. | :21:33. | ||
it. Autograph hunters were out in force when the Beatles were there. | :21:33. | :21:42. | |
Stewart has been signing a few. right, thanks very much. There's a | :21:42. | :21:44. | |
band rehearsing for tomorrow's concert to mark the anniversary of | :21:44. | :21:50. | |
the Beatles are parents here. What an extraordinary story. 1962, the | :21:50. | :21:55. | |
organisers of the Urmston Show booked this up-and-coming band the | :21:55. | :22:02. | |
Beatles to play here and they said, next, do you fancy coming back and | :22:02. | :22:07. | |
they said, yes, we will do, but in the next 12 months, Beatlemania | :22:07. | :22:12. | |
really kicks in and the question is, will they honour their contract? | :22:12. | :22:16. | |
They did and it turned out to be a heck of a day. There's some flash | :22:16. | :22:19. | |
photography coming up in minutes time. Preparations for an | :22:19. | :22:24. | |
anniversary concert in Abbotsfield Park. It was here in 1962 that a | :22:24. | :22:30. | |
little-known band called The Beatles performed at the Urmston Show. By | :22:30. | :22:40. | |
:22:40. | :22:45. | ||
the time they returned a year later and tried to disengage them from the | :22:45. | :22:48. | |
contract to appear. The council insisted they honour the contract. | :22:48. | :22:55. | |
It is a myth that they were smuggled in in a council dustcart. I can say | :22:55. | :23:04. | |
that was not the case. They got changed in a shared on the parks | :23:04. | :23:08. | |
premises across the road from the park and were then driven over in a | :23:08. | :23:15. | |
van. The stage for tomorrow's concert is being built exactly where | :23:15. | :23:19. | |
the Beatles performed 50 years ago and on that occasion it was all too | :23:19. | :23:24. | |
much for some. My sister said I fainted and got taken out but I | :23:24. | :23:29. | |
don't remember that. I was stood right in front of Paul McCartney all | :23:29. | :23:34. | |
night, so close, all I could see was his legs. I saw the bottom half with | :23:35. | :23:40. | |
legs and that was it. It was brilliant. This weekend the Beatles | :23:40. | :23:43. | |
are back. Well, a tribute band anyway. Amongst the other | :23:43. | :23:45. | |
performers, Rain Band. They performed at Glastonbury this year | :23:45. | :23:49. | |
with the Rolling Stones. Now they get to play with The Beatles on the | :23:49. | :23:52. | |
very spot where it's thought they performed their latest song, weeks | :23:52. | :24:02. | |
:24:02. | :24:04. | ||
before its release. It's difficult to find details of the set list but | :24:04. | :24:08. | |
I think it's coming out a fortnight before, any band would tell you they | :24:08. | :24:12. | |
would at least have a couple of outings, so maybe it was played | :24:12. | :24:16. | |
here. The Beatles were too busy to return the following August. They | :24:16. | :24:24. | |
were performing at the Hollywood Bowl. Pauline was there on that | :24:24. | :24:29. | |
incredible day. What do you remember? It is very exciting. Of | :24:29. | :24:35. | |
course, the show was very big event. You told me earlier they were | :24:35. | :24:40. | |
appearing in the dark tent? Yes, there was Gymkhana, rabbits, all | :24:40. | :24:47. | |
sorts of things. Did they go to the pub beforehand? Somebody told they | :24:47. | :24:54. | |
went to the Bird in hand. Maybe it was a landlord who said that? | :24:54. | :25:00. | |
probably was, actually. They were all in their, in their original | :25:00. | :25:07. | |
beetle suits. It was brilliant. We had the tremor lows, and quite a lot | :25:07. | :25:13. | |
of us remember them. Very exciting. It must've been an incredible | :25:13. | :25:19. | |
atmosphere and a day to remember. Thank you for joining us and you can | :25:19. | :25:23. | |
relive us that this tomorrow at the show which is on all weekend. Sounds | :25:23. | :25:28. | |
like it's going to be pretty good. Thank you for that, Stuart. They | :25:28. | :25:38. | |
:25:38. | :25:41. | ||
Saturday night. Today, well, it didn't really get going. Some places | :25:41. | :25:45. | |
saw some good sunshine but for most of us, more cloud cover than you | :25:45. | :25:49. | |
would like and at times, it's been fairly blustery out and about and | :25:49. | :25:53. | |
it's felt fairly cool. The forecast that doesn't change too much from | :25:53. | :25:57. | |
that. Showers from time to time and it is going to get a little bit | :25:57. | :26:01. | |
cooler. As we start the working week, next week, we could see | :26:01. | :26:05. | |
temperatures of only 16 degrees. Remember, earlier in June and July, | :26:05. | :26:10. | |
it is up to 30 degrees, so it's not what you want. A rain band on | :26:10. | :26:15. | |
Saturday night and Sunday night but it's all about our wind direction, | :26:15. | :26:21. | |
north-westerly 's, bringing showers and cooling things off. After a | :26:22. | :26:26. | |
breezy day today, the wind eases down tonight. A very settled affair. | :26:26. | :26:31. | |
You could once again see temperatures around 8-9dC but for | :26:32. | :26:36. | |
towns and cities, 12-13. Tomorrow morning, cloud cover for many places | :26:36. | :26:40. | |
but it's not long before it starts to break up. Brighter skies come | :26:40. | :26:46. | |
through every now and then. There's a risk of showers and the most part, | :26:46. | :26:51. | |
they will stay away. There is a risk of showers. You might be lucky and | :26:51. | :26:55. | |
dodge them, but as you head to the afternoon, one or two places will | :26:55. | :27:02. | |
see some. It's not brilliantly warmer. 18-19 at the very best. The | :27:02. | :27:07. | |
rain pushes in Saturday evening through to Sunday morning. Then we | :27:07. | :27:10. | |
are back to that combination of patchy cloud, sunny spells, | :27:10. | :27:20. | |
:27:20. | :27:23. | ||
scattered showers but look at the this from 26th of July which you | :27:23. | :27:26. | |
bought in Bolton or Blackpool, the millionaire raffle, there are two | :27:26. | :27:32. |
