Good evening. Welcome to North West Tonight with | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
Roger Johnson and Annabel Tiffin. Our top story: Compensation and an | :00:09. | :00:11. | |
apology for the transplant patient given a cancerous kidney. | :00:12. | :00:15. | |
We'll hear how procedures have been tightened so it can never happen | :00:16. | :00:17. | |
again. Also tonight: Back in court. | :00:18. | :00:33. | |
Stuart Hall faces denies 20 more assault charges, including rape. But | :00:34. | :00:37. | |
admits one before his second trial starts. | :00:38. | :00:42. | |
And the little girl who won the hearts of millions joins a famous | :00:43. | :00:45. | |
friend as their fund raising campaign is brought to reality. | :00:46. | :00:58. | |
Also tonight: They're having a party in Rochdale and Peter Marshall is | :00:59. | :01:05. | |
there. Yes, the founders of Rochdale | :01:06. | :01:10. | |
football club have only celebrated promotion three times in their | :01:11. | :01:14. | |
history so what better reason for a party than promotion to league one. | :01:15. | :01:19. | |
The team has already been on an open top bus tour around the town now | :01:20. | :01:23. | |
there is a civic reception at the town hall. All from here later in | :01:24. | :01:27. | |
the programme. Thank you, we will you later. | :01:28. | :01:30. | |
First tonight: A transplant patient has been awarded a six figure | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
compensation payment after being given a cancerous kidney. | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
The organ had been identified as possibly having a problem but the | :01:37. | :01:39. | |
message didn't get through to surgeons at the Royal Liverpool | :01:40. | :01:42. | |
Hospital. Rob Law had to undergo a course of chemotherapy soon after | :01:43. | :01:45. | |
receiving the kidney. But he says he doesn't regret having the transplant | :01:46. | :01:48. | |
and today commended the work of transplant teams. Our Chief | :01:49. | :01:54. | |
Reporter, Dave Guest has the story. Rob Law has had a lot to deal with | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
in recent years. First he was given a kidney transplant. Then he was | :01:59. | :02:01. | |
told the kidney he'd just received was cancerous. I was scared because | :02:02. | :02:11. | |
I had gone through a kidney transplant and survived that which | :02:12. | :02:14. | |
was the main thing and then I was told I had cancer. I wanted to know | :02:15. | :02:19. | |
why, basically. You were scared, where you anger as well `` angry as | :02:20. | :02:24. | |
well? Know I did not have any anger, I wanted to know how it had gone | :02:25. | :02:26. | |
wrong. What went wrong was a breakdown in | :02:27. | :02:29. | |
communication. The kidney had been identified as having a possible | :02:30. | :02:32. | |
lymphona. But that message wasn't relayed to the transplant surgeons | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
at the Royal Liverpool Hospital. When you are told that, yes, you | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
probably have cancer, it is a very hard time and you have to think | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
logically. He underwent chemotherapy and after nine months of treatment | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
was told the cancer appeared to be in remission but he says he still | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
has lingering concerns. It was such an aggressive form of cancer I | :02:55. | :03:01. | |
wondered how it could be gone. He has just been awarded compensation | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
but says his admiration for the transplant teams and organ donors is | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
undiminished. What they do with organs from people who pass over and | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
courageous families that donate their organs, I have every respect | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
for them. Do you have any regrets about the initial kidney | :03:19. | :03:22. | |
transplant? None whatsoever, I christened the kidney kitty and it | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
is a wonderful relationship we have. She has given me life and I | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
have given new life to kid `` two kitty. She gave you life but she | :03:34. | :03:36. | |
also gave your major scare. She gave me a scare but I came through it. | :03:37. | :03:42. | |
Today NHS Blood and Transplant apologised for the mistake that was | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
made and said that they hoped that now there had been a full and final | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
settlement he would be able to move on with the rest of his life. The | :03:49. | :03:53. | |
organisation also insisted that lessons have been learned from this | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
case in an attempt to avoid similar mistakes being made in the future. | :03:58. | :04:04. | |
Exactly what changes have been made? NHS Blood and Transplant said that | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
today they had reiterated to all staff in hospitals the need for good | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
and clear communication. They now use an electronic system to transfer | :04:13. | :04:17. | |
information about donors and they discourage telephone calls unless | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
absolutely necessary and those calls have to be recorded. They have | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
written to the Society of coroners to ask pathologists to flag any | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
problems they come across in postmortems on the bodies of donors | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
and they have reminded everybody about the need for good supervision | :04:33. | :04:37. | |
of trainees. They point out that all medical interventions do carry a | :04:38. | :04:41. | |
degree of risk and they do their best to minimise that risk but they | :04:42. | :04:44. | |
say that has to be set aside against the fact that many people die whilst | :04:45. | :04:50. | |
waiting for a transplant, yet those that do undergo transplants are | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
increasingly enjoying a much longer and more fulfilling life. Thank you | :04:54. | :05:11. | |
very much. Stuart Hall is already serving a prison sentence for a | :05:12. | :05:15. | |
series of other indecent assaults against others. He denies a further | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
20 charges including 15 of rape. We have been following the case Preston | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
Crown Court. Today a jury has been sworn in for | :05:26. | :05:28. | |
the trial of Stuart Hall. Following a ruling by the judge we can say | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
that it is his second time in the dock year. The jury will be told | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
that he is currently in prison, having last year pleaded guilty to | :05:38. | :05:42. | |
14 indecent assaults against 13 girls. The jury today were told they | :05:43. | :05:47. | |
may recognise Stewart called because he is recognised from his TV | :05:48. | :05:52. | |
appearances over the years and in recent years yet been on the radio | :05:53. | :05:57. | |
commenting on BBC Radio five Live. This morning he pleaded guilty to | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
indecently assaulting a girl under the age of 16. He has already | :06:02. | :06:07. | |
pleaded not guilty to a further 20 counts. They all relate to two girls | :06:08. | :06:12. | |
who were allegedly assaulted by him in Cheshire in the late 1970s and | :06:13. | :06:18. | |
1980s. They include 15 counts of rape and in one he is accused of | :06:19. | :06:23. | |
raping one of the girls when she was under the age of 13, allegations | :06:24. | :06:29. | |
Stuart Hall denies. That is the opening day of Stuart | :06:30. | :06:38. | |
Hall's trial. The world renowned classical | :06:39. | :06:41. | |
musician Duncan McTier has been charged in connection with sex | :06:42. | :06:44. | |
offences at two of the region's top music institutions. Duncan McTier, a | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
double bass soloist and music teacher, faces four charges of | :06:48. | :06:50. | |
indecent assault. The offences are said to have happened between 1985 | :06:51. | :06:53. | |
and 1994. It comes as part of an ongoing investigation into reports | :06:54. | :06:56. | |
of abuse at Manchester's Chetham's School of Music and the Royal | :06:57. | :06:59. | |
Northern College of Music. A hospital in Liverpool has | :07:00. | :07:02. | |
apologised to a patient who was given a vasectomy by mistake. The | :07:03. | :07:05. | |
man had gone into the Royal Liverpool Hospital for a different | :07:06. | :07:08. | |
procedure. He's now waiting to find out if he can have children in the | :07:09. | :07:11. | |
future after a reversal operation. The hospital say they greatly regret | :07:12. | :07:14. | |
the distress it's caused, and apologise unreservedly. | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
The parents of Rhys Jones, the 11`year`old murdered in Liverpool in | :07:19. | :07:21. | |
2007, have lost a battle to stop one of those convicted of assisting the | :07:22. | :07:24. | |
school boy's killer from visiting his sick mother who lives just | :07:25. | :07:30. | |
minutes from the Jones family home. An exclusion zone meant the man | :07:31. | :07:33. | |
couldn't enter the Croxteth Park area. The probation service says in | :07:34. | :07:36. | |
exceptional cases permission to enter may be granted. | :07:37. | :07:43. | |
A former chief executive of Astra Zeneca is warning that jobs may be | :07:44. | :07:48. | |
lost if a takeover by the US drugs giant Pfizer goes ahead. AstraZeneca | :07:49. | :07:51. | |
employs more than 2,000 people in Cheshire, most of them at its | :07:52. | :07:58. | |
manufacturing base in Maccelsfield. Sir David Barnes has told the BBC he | :07:59. | :08:01. | |
fears their future would be uncertain under new ownership. | :08:02. | :08:12. | |
Andrew Fletcher reports. PFizer want some of this, the | :08:13. | :08:17. | |
expertise that means that AstraZeneca make up 2% of UK goods | :08:18. | :08:26. | |
imports. It is not a very long`term promise. It has been heavily caveat | :08:27. | :08:32. | |
it, for a example, it is for a maximum of five years and even then | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
it is dependent on there being no change in circumstances. One of our | :08:38. | :08:42. | |
options as the government would be to consider using our public | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
interest test powers. Concern is mounting at Westminster. In a | :08:48. | :08:52. | |
statement this afternoon it was said it would be in the national interest | :08:53. | :08:57. | |
but the MP for Macclesfield is worried. Pfizer have a reputation | :08:58. | :09:01. | |
with asset stripping and they have reduced significantly their | :09:02. | :09:06. | |
workforce in the UK from 6.5 thousand to 2.5. This Cheshire town | :09:07. | :09:11. | |
with its 2000 AstraZeneca employees found itself at the centre of a | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
national debate and there is a certain uneasiness about what would | :09:17. | :09:20. | |
be the biggest takeover ever by a UK firm from arrival from overseas. | :09:21. | :09:25. | |
They will take the company and the drugs that they want and take the | :09:26. | :09:28. | |
business back to America. I think we will lose jobs with many cannot do | :09:29. | :09:34. | |
that, we have lost enough jobs. One former employee told me why | :09:35. | :09:37. | |
AstraZeneca mean so much to the town. It is an important part of the | :09:38. | :09:40. | |
economy, not just because of the people who are employed but because | :09:41. | :09:44. | |
of the impact of their income on the rest of the economy. What we would | :09:45. | :09:50. | |
like Pfizer to do is recognise our highly skilled labour force and that | :09:51. | :09:55. | |
they would commit long`term to jobs. Still to come on North West Tonight: | :09:56. | :10:04. | |
have Crystal Palace crowd Manchester City as champions? | :10:05. | :10:08. | |
The collapse of Liverpool's title challenge was too much for some. | :10:09. | :10:13. | |
Kirsty's campaign, the fundraising youngster and her famous friends see | :10:14. | :10:18. | |
their vision become reality. Before all that: More people have | :10:19. | :10:21. | |
been affected by the so`called bedroom tax here than anywhere else | :10:22. | :10:23. | |
in the UK. Close behind the North West is | :10:24. | :10:36. | |
Scotland. But in the coming weeks Scotland will be given the ability | :10:37. | :10:40. | |
to scrap a policy many say is one of the most unfair of the Government's | :10:41. | :10:43. | |
welfare reforms. A year ago we reported from around the region on | :10:44. | :10:46. | |
different aspects of those reforms. This week, we go back. Here's Jayne | :10:47. | :10:49. | |
McCubbin. There are more people claiming | :10:50. | :10:52. | |
benefits here in the North West than in other region in the country. | :10:53. | :10:55. | |
750,000, that's almost 17% of the population. The third biggest | :10:56. | :10:58. | |
benefits bill in the country, is here in Knowsley. Nationally, that | :10:59. | :11:01. | |
bill stands at ?169 billion. Up ?15 billion in the past three years. | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
Almost half of that is state pension. Because we have an aging | :11:06. | :11:08. | |
population, that figure will keep on growing. So reforms are designed to | :11:09. | :11:14. | |
do two things. Bring the spend under control and create a fairer system. | :11:15. | :11:22. | |
This week we're going back to people we first met 12 months ago to | :11:23. | :11:26. | |
examine how the reforms have been for them and how much is being | :11:27. | :11:28. | |
saved. A year ago we went to one street in | :11:29. | :11:33. | |
one town to see the effect of one of the Government's key benefit | :11:34. | :11:35. | |
reforms. The spare room subsidy. Emma, a widow, was facing up to the | :11:36. | :11:39. | |
fact she couldn't afford to stay. All the memories of their Dad is | :11:40. | :11:44. | |
here. You don't want to go. No. But I'll have to leave it behind. 12 | :11:45. | :11:49. | |
months on, she's in a new two bed house. Her teenage boys share a | :11:50. | :11:51. | |
room. It was heart breaking. I did cry | :11:52. | :11:56. | |
quite a lot when I moved. It wasn't just the emotional side of things, | :11:57. | :12:03. | |
it was having to start again. But two`bed houses are rare here. We're | :12:04. | :12:13. | |
told seven families have moved out of three`bedroomed homes on the | :12:14. | :12:16. | |
street. New residents haven't moved in. They're empty. They're lying | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
empty. And they're building a load of new two`bedrooms down there now. | :12:21. | :12:24. | |
Land at the top of the street, set aside for new housing. Many much | :12:25. | :12:27. | |
sought after two`bed homes. So all these people that had to move and it | :12:28. | :12:31. | |
was urgent that they move. It wasn't that urgent after all. Cos they're | :12:32. | :12:37. | |
stood empty. Critics say the overcrowding this was designed to | :12:38. | :12:41. | |
fix just does not exist here. But for the Government it is also about | :12:42. | :12:45. | |
fairness. Why should people like Jean be paid to have spare rooms? So | :12:46. | :12:49. | |
she's had to find an extra ?100 a month to stay in her home of 30 | :12:50. | :12:53. | |
years. A lot of people have lost their houses. What evictions? | :12:54. | :12:55. | |
Evictions, because they couldn't afford to pay the rent. They said if | :12:56. | :13:01. | |
you vote labour they will abolish the bedroom tax. If they do, you | :13:02. | :13:05. | |
will feel it has all been for... It will have been for nothing for a lot | :13:06. | :13:10. | |
of people. More people have been affected by these cuts here than any | :13:11. | :13:14. | |
other region in the UK. The Government says the policy is fair. | :13:15. | :13:17. | |
One year on, taxpayers are being saved more than ?1 million a day. We | :13:18. | :13:25. | |
will keep following that in the months ahead of course. | :13:26. | :13:29. | |
Richard's here with the sport now and we'll be going over live to | :13:30. | :13:32. | |
Rochdale's promotion parade in a moment, but before that, will | :13:33. | :13:35. | |
Liverpool fans still have their heads in their hands after last | :13:36. | :13:42. | |
night's result? They will not be very happy to see | :13:43. | :13:46. | |
you in a Manchester City blue dress today. | :13:47. | :13:47. | |
Thank you for pointing that out! Suarez. But then it all unravelled | :13:48. | :14:24. | |
for Brendan Rodger's men as they went from thinking about improving | :14:25. | :14:27. | |
their goal difference to trying to hang on to the points. They couldn't | :14:28. | :14:31. | |
and Dwight Gayle it was who struck the third for Palace, a goal that in | :14:32. | :14:35. | |
the mind of Liverpool's manager handed the title to | :14:36. | :15:52. | |
stellar career on the pitch but he is now 40 and, of course, has had | :15:53. | :15:55. | |
his first taste of management. United take on Hull City in their | :15:56. | :15:58. | |
penultimate match of the season. Let's focus on the celebrations in | :15:59. | :16:02. | |
Rochdale now. Dale are marking their automatic promotion to League One | :16:03. | :16:04. | |
with an open`topped bus parade through the town. Crowds have | :16:05. | :16:08. | |
gathered at the Town Hall where a civic reception is taking place. | :16:09. | :16:11. | |
Peter Marshall is there for us and and we can join him live now. Peter. | :16:12. | :16:14. | |
The fans of Rochdale and the football team were not going to let | :16:15. | :16:17. | |
promotion pass without some kind of party. They have been having one and | :16:18. | :16:21. | |
they have been dispersing now but the crowd has been good here today | :16:22. | :16:25. | |
enjoying the moment because the club has only enjoyed promotion three | :16:26. | :16:29. | |
times in its long history. They were up for some fun today. There has | :16:30. | :16:33. | |
already been an open topped bus tour through the town and they set off | :16:34. | :16:36. | |
from the Stadium while earlier and they came to the town hall for a | :16:37. | :16:42. | |
civic reception which is taking place inside. The fans have been | :16:43. | :16:43. | |
delighted, obviously. I hope they say where they are now. | :16:44. | :17:05. | |
It means a lot has been an absolutely fantastic season. We will | :17:06. | :17:08. | |
enjoy it tonight and who knows next season, we might another one. We are | :17:09. | :17:18. | |
going up! We are going up! I am joined now by the club captain. Put | :17:19. | :17:23. | |
into words what it has meant to you, promotion. This is the | :17:24. | :17:27. | |
culmination of all of our hard work over the season. We were expected to | :17:28. | :17:31. | |
be in the middle of the table so to achieve what we have achieved is a | :17:32. | :17:37. | |
real big bonus for asked and for the community. You can seal the people | :17:38. | :17:41. | |
of turned out today. They have drifted off now but what was it like | :17:42. | :17:44. | |
to see all of those people here and during the trip through the town. It | :17:45. | :17:48. | |
has been great. The fans have been fantastic for eight weeks. We have | :17:49. | :17:54. | |
been taking huge followings to away games which has never been seen | :17:55. | :17:59. | |
before. Credit must go for them helping us help. Next season you | :18:00. | :18:06. | |
have a restricted budget, can you be successful again? I think so. We | :18:07. | :18:09. | |
have been fortunate this year but we have some younger players coming | :18:10. | :18:13. | |
through who I expect to go on to big things and the longer we can keep | :18:14. | :18:17. | |
hold of them are more we will be strengthened and we will be | :18:18. | :18:21. | |
competitive. What do you make of Keith Hale, the manager, in terms of | :18:22. | :18:29. | |
these spells? They will put it back on all of the players but the credit | :18:30. | :18:33. | |
has to go to him for what he has done in the last 18 months which is | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
a real big achievement. Managers these days do not last in the job | :18:38. | :18:41. | |
for very long so to achieve that in a short space of time, all you can | :18:42. | :18:46. | |
do is give him a lot of credit. Enjoy the party and thank you for | :18:47. | :18:53. | |
joining us. Great to see them having their | :18:54. | :18:56. | |
moment in the sun because they have played well all season. | :18:57. | :18:58. | |
Dale were already certain of promotion going into the last game | :18:59. | :19:02. | |
of the season on Saturday, but for two of our League One clubs it was | :19:03. | :19:06. | |
about trying to stay in the division. There were tears of joy | :19:07. | :19:09. | |
and sheer relief at Crewe as the Alex avoided the drop by beating | :19:10. | :19:13. | |
Preston 2`1. But the tears at Tranmere were of the opposite kind. | :19:14. | :19:16. | |
Rovers were relegated after losing 2`1 to Bradford City at Prenton Park | :19:17. | :19:19. | |
after a troubled season on and off the pitch. | :19:20. | :19:22. | |
Cricket and Lancashire are facing an uphill struggle after the third day | :19:23. | :19:25. | |
of their LV County championship match against Sussex at Old | :19:26. | :19:34. | |
Trafford. In reply to the visitors first innings of 298 Lancashire | :19:35. | :19:37. | |
reached 191. Sussex in their second innings ended the day on 149 for | :19:38. | :19:43. | |
three giving them a lead of 256. We could have with the play`offs, | :19:44. | :19:48. | |
Fleetwood going up from league two and Preston North End from the one | :19:49. | :19:51. | |
and Wigan from the championship. So we could have a promotion and the | :19:52. | :19:55. | |
champions doubled the Premier league as well. | :19:56. | :20:00. | |
Absolutely. Thank very much. Manchester's big wheel came to a | :20:01. | :20:03. | |
standstill today after a convicted gangster climbed into it to return | :20:04. | :20:08. | |
`` protest about his return to prison. Dominic Noonan climbed onto | :20:09. | :20:11. | |
the roof of one of the pods of the giant wheel in Piccadilly Gardens. | :20:12. | :20:18. | |
We have this update from the scene. Earlier this afternoon Dominic | :20:19. | :20:22. | |
Noonan climbed up the centre of this wheel using the maintenance ladders | :20:23. | :20:26. | |
and is currently sitting on the axle right in the centre of the wheel | :20:27. | :20:33. | |
here. We did get a shot of him earlier. This was a shot from | :20:34. | :20:38. | |
3:30pm. There were passengers who were stranded in the pods for two | :20:39. | :20:41. | |
hours but they have now been released. He was arrested and | :20:42. | :20:47. | |
imprisoned nine years ago for firearms offences and was out on | :20:48. | :20:51. | |
licence. He has been shouting to the crowds that the gap gathered here | :20:52. | :20:54. | |
because he says he did something very trivial which meant the police | :20:55. | :21:00. | |
average `` recalled him back to prison and he says it is unfair and | :21:01. | :21:06. | |
that is why he has staged a protest. We will have an update on that | :21:07. | :21:11. | |
situation in our bulletin at 10:30pm. At least the people on the | :21:12. | :21:22. | |
wheel have managed to get off. It was a friendship which started 13 | :21:23. | :21:32. | |
years ago. When Mohammed Al Fayed met Kirsty Howard she was just six. | :21:33. | :21:36. | |
Such is their close bond, her picture was always above his desk in | :21:37. | :21:40. | |
Harrods. Many of you will know Kirsty was born with a rare heart | :21:41. | :21:43. | |
defect. She has raised millions for the Hospice in Manchester she uses, | :21:44. | :21:47. | |
Francis House. Well today her famous friend met Kirsty again to open up | :21:48. | :21:51. | |
part of a 3.5 million pound unit for teenagers like her. Nazia Mogra was | :21:52. | :21:53. | |
there. Kirsty Howard captured the hearts of | :21:54. | :21:56. | |
the nation. Diagnosed with a rare heart condition, she was told she'd | :21:57. | :21:59. | |
only live till the age of four. Kirsty Howard! | :22:00. | :22:01. | |
But at six she started the Commonwealth Games with David | :22:02. | :22:03. | |
Beckham. In 2012 she passed her GCSEs with | :22:04. | :22:13. | |
flying colours. And in a few months she'll celebrate her 19th birthday. | :22:14. | :22:16. | |
All while raising millions of pounds for Francis House. | :22:17. | :22:19. | |
And today at the launch of the new teenage unit it was another chance | :22:20. | :22:23. | |
to meet her best friend Uncle Mo, or to me and you Mohammed Al Fayed, and | :22:24. | :22:27. | |
his daughter Camilla. He has been really good. He has been helpful to | :22:28. | :22:33. | |
the hospice and my family individually and he got me an | :22:34. | :22:37. | |
electric wheelchair a few wheels `` years ago because mine was breaking. | :22:38. | :22:43. | |
The new building has state of the art bedrooms with balconys, places | :22:44. | :22:46. | |
to relax, a lounge with all the things teenagers like. The people | :22:47. | :22:50. | |
who care about the place real angels. Just to be able to give | :22:51. | :22:57. | |
comfort and give hope. This building behind me is the old building but | :22:58. | :23:03. | |
now there is a new building. ?3.5 million and it will be home to just | :23:04. | :23:06. | |
teenagers and strictly no parents allowed! It is nice to come here and | :23:07. | :23:13. | |
be treated as you age really and it is OK to drink and coming with a | :23:14. | :23:17. | |
friend and stay up until three in the morning. No tears from these | :23:18. | :23:23. | |
friends on their goodbyes, Kirsty and her baby nephew have been | :23:24. | :23:33. | |
invited on another date in London. We cannot believe she is 18 now! | :23:34. | :23:40. | |
I have really vivid memory of her in the Commonwealth Games. Brilliant | :23:41. | :23:44. | |
work to her, she has raised so much money. | :23:45. | :23:53. | |
With apologies to all the fans, look who is here! It is nice to see you. | :23:54. | :24:08. | |
Good evening. We started off with really good spells of sunshine this | :24:09. | :24:11. | |
afternoon and things are going downhill this afternoon. `` this | :24:12. | :24:16. | |
evening. We are going to see outbreaks of rain, particularly by | :24:17. | :24:22. | |
the end of the week. It is not looking particularly brilliant for | :24:23. | :24:25. | |
the end of the week. There is plenty of crowd around. We start with | :24:26. | :24:29. | |
showers that will merge to bring longer spells of rain overnight. | :24:30. | :24:34. | |
Hopefully easing away by dawn. The breezes picking up all of the time. | :24:35. | :24:38. | |
The temperature does not look too bad because of the breeze and the | :24:39. | :24:42. | |
cloud. Temperatures only go down to nine or 10 Celsius. It is not | :24:43. | :24:49. | |
looking bad initially but the rain continues. We start off cloudy but | :24:50. | :24:59. | |
it is a start with cloud cover. The showers will merge to bring longer | :25:00. | :25:02. | |
spells of rain through the afternoon. It is a little bit of a | :25:03. | :25:06. | |
disappointing day I will have to tell you tomorrow to end with. The | :25:07. | :25:11. | |
temperature is disappointing. Just 13 or 14. In the south of the region | :25:12. | :25:17. | |
you can see across Cumbria it is just ten or 11. You will notice a | :25:18. | :25:22. | |
difference as well. We have a stiff westerly breeze which will feel a | :25:23. | :25:29. | |
tad cooler than that. It will begin to become very unsettled and the | :25:30. | :25:32. | |
frontal system brings in a band of rain on Thursday. Another band of | :25:33. | :25:37. | |
rain eases on Friday. All the while the breeze continues to pile in from | :25:38. | :25:42. | |
the West. A breezy end to your week and this is the breakdown in terms | :25:43. | :25:47. | |
of temperatures. Very disappointing. Just ten or 11 Celsius in the Isle | :25:48. | :25:57. | |
of Man on Thursday and Friday. That is just a tad below average for this | :25:58. | :26:02. | |
time of year. Hang on to your umbrellas. | :26:03. | :26:05. | |
It has all gone downhill. What a shame? | :26:06. | :26:08. | |
It is not particularly bad but not particularly brilliant. | :26:09. | :26:12. | |
We are very genesis `` we are very jealous of Terry and Jacqueline who | :26:13. | :26:15. | |
are watching us from Spain tonight where the weather is glorious! We | :26:16. | :26:21. | |
want to be with them! Enjoy the sunshine. Have a good | :26:22. | :26:25. | |
night. Good night. | :26:26. | :26:28. |
