The Warrington school that's printed a 3D prosthetic | :00:34. | :00:52. | |
It will mean that he can grip things and he is looking forward to a | :00:53. | :01:08. | |
better future. First, the children who were found | :01:09. | :01:11. | |
like zombies when they were rescued The four youngsters were found by | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
police. They were surrounded by dirty | :01:15. | :01:25. | |
nappies and with no food or hot When police went in, | :01:26. | :01:28. | |
the four children were immediately But they were later returned home, | :01:29. | :01:31. | |
a decision a judge has Our social affairs correspondent | :01:32. | :01:34. | |
Clare Fallon is with us An alarming case which raises | :01:35. | :01:38. | |
some serious questions. Indeed and I should warn | :01:39. | :01:41. | |
you that some of the details are pretty hard to stomach | :01:42. | :01:44. | |
and the pictures of These children were | :01:45. | :01:46. | |
only found by chance. It was only because police went | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
there looking for one of their relatives | :01:51. | :01:52. | |
that officers went in and discovered the children, | :01:53. | :01:54. | |
who were all under the age of three. The conditions have been described | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
as feral and dangerous. faeces smeared on the walls, | :01:58. | :02:09. | |
there was no food in the house. Instead, police found cannabis | :02:10. | :02:11. | |
and cigarette papers in the slow As for the children, | :02:12. | :02:13. | |
they were dirty, they weren't dressed, | :02:14. | :02:18. | |
one was trapped under a bed, The other three children didn't seem | :02:19. | :02:21. | |
to be able to communicate. They have been described as | :02:22. | :02:37. | |
functioning like zombies. It is really shocking. | :02:38. | :02:39. | |
All this has come to light now because the father's been jailed. | :02:40. | :02:42. | |
For obvious reasons, we're not naming the parents so as not | :02:43. | :02:46. | |
The father's been jailed for 14 months - | :02:47. | :02:50. | |
She does have a significant mental health problems. | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
But what also came to light when they were sentenced | :02:56. | :02:57. | |
is that although the children were initally taken into care, | :02:58. | :03:00. | |
the children were later returned to their parents. | :03:01. | :03:02. | |
Now that's someting the judge was pretty critical of. | :03:03. | :03:04. | |
He said, "It is not part of my function | :03:05. | :03:07. | |
to criticise social services but I do make the point that I am | :03:08. | :03:10. | |
somewhat surprised that social services have not intervened | :03:11. | :03:12. | |
But here's the thing - social services say it | :03:13. | :03:15. | |
The say in a statement that they didn't want the children | :03:16. | :03:19. | |
to go back to the parents - but that a family court | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
decision went against them - and that it was ruled in court | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
that the children should go back to their parents. | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
In recent times, there have been efforts to make | :03:30. | :03:31. | |
the family courts more open, more transarent and accountable. | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
I've spent the day trying to get details of the reasons behind | :03:37. | :03:38. | |
that decision, but at the moment I can't even get the name | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
Also worth saying that I've been told right now the children | :03:43. | :03:46. | |
are being cared for not by the mother | :03:47. | :03:48. | |
Show so -- social services saying they are working to ensure their | :03:49. | :03:58. | |
well-being. Thank you, on a distressing case. | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
A gratuitous campaign of destruction. | :04:02. | :04:03. | |
That's how a judge today described the actions of a prisoner who staged | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
a 60 hour rooftop protest at Manchester's Strangeways Prison. | :04:07. | :04:08. | |
Stuart Horner, who's serving a life sentence for murder, had denied | :04:09. | :04:10. | |
Today, a judge found him guilty on both counts. | :04:11. | :04:14. | |
Our reporter Ian Haslam is at Manchester Crown Court. | :04:15. | :04:22. | |
As you say, the jury found Stuart Horner, who is from Manchester, | :04:23. | :04:29. | |
guilty of criminal damage and affray as a result of those 60 hours spent | :04:30. | :04:34. | |
on the roof of Strangeways prison back in 2015. He told the court he | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
did this because nobody was listening to his concerns about | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
things like inmates being locked away for 23 hours a day and | :04:43. | :04:45. | |
disgusting toilet facilities but the judge told him that whilst he | :04:46. | :04:53. | |
appreciated he did hold a genuine concern for others, the damage he | :04:54. | :04:56. | |
caused was malicious and, in the end, nothing short of gratuitous. He | :04:57. | :05:03. | |
said that in the end, his power -- the power went to his head, starting | :05:04. | :05:11. | |
a campaign to destroy the roof, destroying CCTV as well, was him | :05:12. | :05:20. | |
reacting to the media and people watching. He was eventually brought | :05:21. | :05:24. | |
down by a cherry picker. Today, he was sentenced to nine years for | :05:25. | :05:30. | |
criminal damage and another 12 years for affray which will run at the | :05:31. | :05:36. | |
same time. The sentence is unlikely to have anything practical effect of | :05:37. | :05:46. | |
years years into a 27 year term, but it may delay his release. | :05:47. | :05:49. | |
What's the reaction from authorities to | :05:50. | :05:50. | |
Greater Manchester Police have said that today's sentence shows how | :05:51. | :06:00. | |
seriously incidents like this are taken and that causing damage and | :06:01. | :06:05. | |
hurting people is not the way to get your voice heard. That last comment | :06:06. | :06:10. | |
relating to an officer being injured by debris being thrown from the reef | :06:11. | :06:14. | |
at the time. The prison officers Association said it is grateful to | :06:15. | :06:19. | |
the judiciary for recognising the severity of the offence. They say it | :06:20. | :06:32. | |
also shows the problems that unfit staffing levels and the frustration | :06:33. | :06:41. | |
this causes can be difficult as well. | :06:42. | :06:48. | |
The company that operates trains on Merseyside is taking legal action | :06:49. | :06:50. | |
in an attempt to stop a strike on Monday. | :06:51. | :06:52. | |
The dispute is about plans to run new trains without guards. | :06:53. | :06:55. | |
The RMT says instead of going to court, Merseyrail should | :06:56. | :07:00. | |
The former football coach Barry Bennell has been charged | :07:01. | :07:03. | |
with a further four counts of indecent assault on a boy | :07:04. | :07:05. | |
The charges are alleged to have taken place between 1981 and 1982. | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
It comes after the former youth coach at Crewe Alexandra pleaded not | :07:10. | :07:12. | |
guilty on Tuesday to eight counts of historical sexual | :07:13. | :07:14. | |
The population of the Isle of Man has fallen for the first | :07:15. | :07:22. | |
The latest census figures show around 83,000 people now | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
live on the island - that's a fall of over | :07:26. | :07:27. | |
A lower birth rate and people moving away are apparently some of the | :07:28. | :07:41. | |
courses. The population is younger -- is lower in younger people, which | :07:42. | :07:47. | |
shows people moving away, perhaps in their 20s, and there has also been a | :07:48. | :07:52. | |
decline in the number of births on the Isle of Man. Births here are | :07:53. | :07:54. | |
down 26% in five years. Labour and Liberal Democrat | :07:55. | :07:59. | |
councillors in Pendle have denied striking a deal with a BNP | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
councillor in order to get Brian Parker is the BNP's only | :08:04. | :08:04. | |
councillor in the country and holds the deciding vote in Pendle | :08:05. | :08:08. | |
because the Conservatives are equally split with | :08:09. | :08:13. | |
a Lib-Lab coalition. Today he claimed he'd been offered | :08:14. | :08:15. | |
help with local traffic issues, Labour and the Liberal Democrats say | :08:16. | :08:17. | |
his claims are untrue. A school in Warrington is helping | :08:18. | :08:30. | |
to change the life of a five year old boy by making him | :08:31. | :08:33. | |
a prosthetic hand. Andrew has a condition which meant | :08:34. | :08:35. | |
he was born with just two fingers Now there's hope for him and other | :08:36. | :08:38. | |
families in similar situations Five-year-old Andrew tries on his | :08:39. | :08:53. | |
new hand for the first time. Andrew's conditions means he was | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
born with a shorter right arm and two small fingers. Until now, his | :08:58. | :09:01. | |
parents had struggled to get the prostatic hand to fit him. He does | :09:02. | :09:07. | |
adapt quite well but it will improve things for him, like holding a | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
bottle and allowing him to use his hand for other things. It will | :09:12. | :09:17. | |
benefit you, went it? Yes. I think it will give Andrew a bit more | :09:18. | :09:21. | |
confidence, because I know sometimes he shies away because he can't use | :09:22. | :09:25. | |
his hand. I think it will give him extra confidence. Andrew 's new hand | :09:26. | :09:31. | |
was made here at this school, the only school in the country to have a | :09:32. | :09:36. | |
manufacturing up on site. Andrew's and was made here, with the design | :09:37. | :09:42. | |
on this laptop is inserted into the 3-D printing machine. Thousands of | :09:43. | :09:45. | |
layers of plastic were needed to make just one finger. The hand was | :09:46. | :09:51. | |
3-D printed in a number of parts which then bolted together. They | :09:52. | :09:59. | |
have elasticated anon elastic cabling which allows light movement | :10:00. | :10:02. | |
to create a grip and relaxed mechanism, allowing him to pick up | :10:03. | :10:07. | |
and interact with products. Pupils here will be helping with the next | :10:08. | :10:12. | |
date of alteration to the hand. I do enjoy helping people and I think | :10:13. | :10:18. | |
this is something that will really have a big impact on his life. It's | :10:19. | :10:22. | |
also good for us because we can learn more about it and how it's | :10:23. | :10:27. | |
made. We want to give him the opportunities that he should be able | :10:28. | :10:32. | |
to have that such a young age. The school are offering help to other | :10:33. | :10:36. | |
children with Andrew's condition. His parents say his new hand will | :10:37. | :10:47. | |
transform his life. The families of two women who died after a car hit | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
pedestrians outside Withington community Hospital has paid tribute | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
to them tonight. Claire Haslam and Deborah Clifton both died in that | :10:56. | :10:58. | |
accident earlier this week. A family statement says they are | :10:59. | :11:05. | |
together in heaven as they were in birth. An 88 -- 89-year-old man was | :11:06. | :11:11. | |
arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving was | :11:12. | :11:13. | |
bailed just today pending further investigations. | :11:14. | :11:17. | |
The actress Jane Horrocks talks to us about her musical take on the | :11:18. | :11:25. | |
Lancashire cotton industry. And a new start for Timmy - | :11:26. | :11:28. | |
we meet the 16 year old who's bouncing back after a terrible | :11:29. | :11:31. | |
ordeal. When she was six years old, the | :11:32. | :11:42. | |
Bolton born comedian Sophie will was taken into care. | :11:43. | :11:53. | |
At 23 she was given her personal files documenting what happened | :11:54. | :11:56. | |
when her drug addict mum could no longer cope. | :11:57. | :11:58. | |
She's now established herself as one of the most exciting stars | :11:59. | :12:00. | |
of the comedy circuit and is using her experience in care | :12:01. | :12:03. | |
Eno Eruoter has been to meet her as she prepares perform | :12:04. | :12:08. | |
I was excluded from secondary school for arriving drunk in a bikini. To | :12:09. | :12:13. | |
be fair, it was a very hot day in Bolton and they only come once a | :12:14. | :12:19. | |
decade. Turning a life of difficulty into comedy. I went into foster care | :12:20. | :12:25. | |
when I was six. I'd lived with my mum until I was six and then I got | :12:26. | :12:32. | |
my first flat when I was about 16, 17. It was changes on government | :12:33. | :12:36. | |
policy on social care that first inspired her writing. There's been a | :12:37. | :12:41. | |
lot of cuts to social services. My mother has mental health issues and | :12:42. | :12:45. | |
I was in social services. A lot of my material was about three claiming | :12:46. | :12:52. | |
negative language. Buzzwords kept popping up. Rebellious, defiant and | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
rude. Sophie is rebellious, defiant and rude. I've heard there's so much | :12:57. | :13:01. | |
in my life. This latest show at the Lowry is an exploration of her | :13:02. | :13:04. | |
personal files, which Sophie received from social services when | :13:05. | :13:09. | |
she was 23. It was a weird day when I got the files. This is what they | :13:10. | :13:13. | |
look like. There's lots of blogs throughout. I don't really know what | :13:14. | :13:18. | |
a lot of it says. A lot of it is a guessing game, really. Sophie born | :13:19. | :13:24. | |
in London? They don't know. Have you found them useful? Yes, because I | :13:25. | :13:30. | |
was able to process what happened to me when I was younger and understand | :13:31. | :13:35. | |
what went on. But it was also difficult and traumatic when I first | :13:36. | :13:40. | |
got the finals. -- files. So why turn it into humour? Turning them | :13:41. | :13:46. | |
into humour and finding the human story is important to me. The same | :13:47. | :13:51. | |
as when I talk about my mum in the show, a parent you with a drug | :13:52. | :13:55. | |
addict. I wanted to humanise her. Breaking down the taboo is that we | :13:56. | :14:00. | |
have about certain groups of people, read claiming negative language used | :14:01. | :14:03. | |
around mental health and looking at things through a different lens. On | :14:04. | :14:07. | |
record is on at the Lowry in March. Manchester International | :14:08. | :14:19. | |
Festival has prided itself on showcasing big stars - | :14:20. | :14:20. | |
alongside more obscure artists. Today the acts for this year's | :14:21. | :14:22. | |
festival were announced. Taking centre stage - one | :14:23. | :14:24. | |
of Manchester's most famous bands. And a musical about | :14:25. | :14:27. | |
Lancashire's cotton industry. But this year, the festival's focus | :14:28. | :14:34. | |
is also on getting the people of Manchester involved, | :14:35. | :14:37. | |
as Abbie Jones reports. To an artist lying in a bed | :14:38. | :14:43. | |
of cotton in the dead of night has always seen an eclectic mix | :14:44. | :14:50. | |
of world premieres. This year, seminal Manchester band | :14:51. | :14:55. | |
New Order will take centre stage. But big name acts won't be | :14:56. | :15:05. | |
the only stars of the show. The aim this year is to get people | :15:06. | :15:18. | |
more involved than ever, so it will kick off with a catwalk here in | :15:19. | :15:21. | |
Piccadilly Gardens where local residents will be asked to strut | :15:22. | :15:23. | |
their stuff. People can also apply to host a mini | :15:24. | :15:26. | |
festival in their homes. At this Manchester flat, | :15:27. | :15:29. | |
a string quartet and singer played to Leo Mercer's | :15:30. | :15:31. | |
friends and neighbours. You can see on peoples faces that | :15:32. | :15:42. | |
this is not a normal concert and that there are different things | :15:43. | :15:45. | |
happening in people's heads than a normal place. The Manchester | :15:46. | :15:50. | |
Festival is something that everybody can and should be proud of but also | :15:51. | :15:53. | |
something that everybody should feel they can get involved in. It's | :15:54. | :15:57. | |
important that this festival feels like it belongs to everybody in the | :15:58. | :16:01. | |
city as well as having an affect on people throughout the world. Back in | :16:02. | :16:07. | |
the big venues, Lancashire actress Jane Horrocks will star in a musical | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
drama about the county's Cotton famine, a story she discovered | :16:13. | :16:15. | |
whilst filming who do you think you are? I was amazed that there was | :16:16. | :16:22. | |
such a thing and that it had never been made into a theatrical drama, | :16:23. | :16:27. | |
you know what I mean? It is such great arterial to make into a drama. | :16:28. | :16:34. | |
Karl Hyde from the band underworld will be covering walls of the | :16:35. | :16:36. | |
stories of Manchester's homeless people. It is an opportunity to make | :16:37. | :16:43. | |
a bridge between that lot and a slot and if this works, it's something we | :16:44. | :16:47. | |
are talking about rolling out to other cities across Britain. Pariah | :16:48. | :16:52. | |
for babies and dancers performing 1000 different gestures. Also on the | :16:53. | :17:01. | |
menu this year, what ever your taste is, organisers hope there will be | :17:02. | :17:04. | |
something for everyone. It sounds good. | :17:05. | :17:10. | |
It is always a good mix, isn't it. New order and the cotton industry. | :17:11. | :17:12. | |
Pretty eclectic. Now to tonight's sport and last | :17:13. | :17:16. | |
season's Super League Grand Richard is at the Halliwell Jones | :17:17. | :17:18. | |
Stadium for the visit of Wigan Warriors to Warrington | :17:19. | :17:22. | |
Wolves. The atmosphere is starting to build | :17:23. | :17:33. | |
up even though the crowd is yet to get into that place. A big game and | :17:34. | :17:38. | |
the Wolves have a lot to prove, as they haven't won a game yet this | :17:39. | :17:43. | |
season? Yes, they absolutely do. It is a huge game this even though it | :17:44. | :17:46. | |
is very early in the season. Warrington Wolves have lost all of | :17:47. | :17:51. | |
their opening super league matches. They are not used to that. Those are | :17:52. | :17:57. | |
some of the Wigan Warriors fans who are here to see them. Here is the | :17:58. | :18:04. | |
Wigan -- the Warrington Wolves head coach. What is your message to the | :18:05. | :18:07. | |
players? Is it don't panic all we need to get moving? We are trying | :18:08. | :18:13. | |
hard at the moment and we are trying our best. Sometimes it just doesn't | :18:14. | :18:18. | |
fall into place. I can't ask my players to try harder. We just need | :18:19. | :18:22. | |
to be a bit smarter at different stages, take some of our chances. We | :18:23. | :18:26. | |
will be OK. Don't you worry too much about us. We will get our season | :18:27. | :18:32. | |
blowing. We are learning along the way all the time. Other teams go | :18:33. | :18:38. | |
through their down periods. Last year, we started with a number of | :18:39. | :18:41. | |
wins and then had a number of losses. We are expecting that this | :18:42. | :18:46. | |
will be a number of losses that we are doing our learning from and then | :18:47. | :18:50. | |
we will put a string of games together. You have seen it all | :18:51. | :18:55. | |
before, Tony, I know that. I heard Ashley Sims, one of your players, | :18:56. | :18:59. | |
speaking in the lead up to this game saying that the grand final is still | :19:00. | :19:03. | |
very much in his memory. Does that give you extra determination for | :19:04. | :19:09. | |
this game at the whole season? It is about the individual. If it | :19:10. | :19:12. | |
motivates Ashley, he needs to use that. It doesn't motivate me at all. | :19:13. | :19:18. | |
We are very proud and I am very proud of what we achieved last year | :19:19. | :19:24. | |
in making grand finals, but Wigan won it. They deserved to on the | :19:25. | :19:28. | |
night. Some players use that sort of thing to inspire them. But I don't. | :19:29. | :19:32. | |
It is not a tool that are used. We are a different team with new | :19:33. | :19:36. | |
players, people that weren't involved last year. So there is | :19:37. | :19:41. | |
little point and it won't change the history of last year. It is more | :19:42. | :19:44. | |
about what we can do tonight and what we need to do tonight. Let's | :19:45. | :19:49. | |
play good rugby league. Yes, absolutely. A big game early in the | :19:50. | :19:54. | |
season but a real test for you, Tony Ms Machado yes, a test for both of | :19:55. | :19:57. | |
us and I am sure whatever the outcome it will be a good game. | :19:58. | :20:03. | |
Whether they come out on top all we come out on top, as long as we put | :20:04. | :20:07. | |
on our best performance, that is all we can ask. Thank you very much for | :20:08. | :20:09. | |
joining us. In last night's football | :20:10. | :20:23. | |
Manchester City's Premier League title hopes suffered a serious blow | :20:24. | :20:36. | |
after they were held to a 0-0 The Blues could have climbed | :20:37. | :20:39. | |
to second with a win , but couldn't It means Pep Guardiola's side trail | :20:40. | :20:43. | |
leaders Chelsea by ten points , As for this match tonight, full | :20:44. | :20:50. | |
match commentary on BBC radio. From here, back to you. | :20:51. | :20:57. | |
It is certainly noisy there. The PA system works well. | :20:58. | :21:03. | |
It is often believed that feminism is a product of the modern age but | :21:04. | :21:09. | |
it's roots may go all the way back to the previous eight and a mill in | :21:10. | :21:14. | |
Cheshire. We have discovered that at least one | :21:15. | :21:18. | |
of the mill's owners refuse to take up her position in the home. | :21:19. | :21:26. | |
Perhaps contrary to popular belief, sisters were doing it for themselves | :21:27. | :21:35. | |
in the late 19th century. To show annoyance would be very injudicious. | :21:36. | :21:40. | |
The diaries of a daughter from the mill owning family. She pursued | :21:41. | :21:47. | |
Dole's format making expeditions to what was then sell on. For her to go | :21:48. | :21:52. | |
out and do that well have been seen at the pioneering thing to do and | :21:53. | :21:55. | |
quite a radical thing. It's not something she would have been able | :21:56. | :22:00. | |
to do had she been married or had she had a family of her own, so | :22:01. | :22:06. | |
really, it's quite a unique and exciting story. There were of course | :22:07. | :22:11. | |
huge buckets of inequality and poverty across the region. The | :22:12. | :22:15. | |
gender pay gap was a huge chasm but women here were starting to Bridget. | :22:16. | :22:22. | |
Some of the other stories we have encountered include things to do | :22:23. | :22:26. | |
with postnatal depression and struggling with motherhood, | :22:27. | :22:28. | |
struggling with balancing motherhood and going back to work. Again, those | :22:29. | :22:33. | |
are all issues women face today. But Quarry bank will -- Quarry bank Mill | :22:34. | :22:40. | |
wasn't a furnace for the mall awakening. Or at least not | :22:41. | :22:44. | |
knowingly. Women leaving home and going to work was good in itself for | :22:45. | :22:53. | |
those women, as they gained education as part of that work. And | :22:54. | :23:00. | |
in the centuries since those pioneering women of the mill, both | :23:01. | :23:05. | |
above and below the stairs, a woman is in charge for the first time. I | :23:06. | :23:11. | |
hope they would be proud of the women working here, as well as the | :23:12. | :23:16. | |
men. We mustn't forget about them. The exhibition here is open until | :23:17. | :23:20. | |
April. Quarry bank mill is always a good | :23:21. | :23:29. | |
day out. Now, the chap behind us was found living with a tumour in awful | :23:30. | :23:33. | |
conditions. But to me the collie has a new home | :23:34. | :23:37. | |
and a new owner and he is settling in really well. | :23:38. | :23:44. | |
RSPCA inspectors were carrying out routine inspections when they forced | :23:45. | :23:46. | |
their way into this house in Wallasey. Concerned about the smell, | :23:47. | :23:55. | |
they feared the worst. That is when they met Timmy, a 16-year-old | :23:56. | :24:00. | |
collie. Abandoned with a tumour the size of an orange. Poor thing. He's | :24:01. | :24:06. | |
a 16-year-old dog. He should be lying on someone's sober being | :24:07. | :24:10. | |
spoiled for his twilight years. He didn't respond to me at all. He came | :24:11. | :24:15. | |
across to me as a defeated, broken animal, which was so sad to see. The | :24:16. | :24:21. | |
growth was down two weeks, possibly months of neglect. Flies were | :24:22. | :24:24. | |
everywhere and he was using the house as a toilet and a kennel. | :24:25. | :24:32. | |
Rotten dog food, rotting human feed and dirt everywhere. It was | :24:33. | :24:36. | |
inadequate for a human being or an animal to be living in. It was | :24:37. | :24:41. | |
really poor. With his tumour removed, this is to me now. A new | :24:42. | :24:47. | |
owner, a vet, and Max as a companion. -- this is Timmy now. | :24:48. | :24:54. | |
Within minutes, he had his feet under the table, on the sofa and | :24:55. | :24:59. | |
everybody loves him. His previous owner was fined and banned from | :25:00. | :25:04. | |
keeping animals for ten years after admitting causing unnecessary | :25:05. | :25:08. | |
suffering. When I took him out of the house, I remember thinking, | :25:09. | :25:11. | |
everything is up against this dog, but every hurdle in front of him, he | :25:12. | :25:17. | |
has jumped over it. From what we have seen so far, he seems to be | :25:18. | :25:24. | |
really enjoying every aspect of his life. As you can see, he is settling | :25:25. | :25:30. | |
in really well and I am sure you agree he deserves it. | :25:31. | :25:34. | |
And you can see more of Timmy's story on the new series | :25:35. | :25:36. | |
of The Dog Rescue, which will be on Channel 5 this summer. | :25:37. | :25:40. | |
Earlier in this programme we said we would bring you a report from | :25:41. | :25:46. | |
Preston about the bus lane and the finds there. The report got stuck in | :25:47. | :25:51. | |
the bus lane and we will have it for you at 10:25pm. What a nice day it | :25:52. | :25:55. | |
was today. Plenty of sunshine and our weather | :25:56. | :25:58. | |
watchers captured some fantastic shots. A little bit of eyes in the | :25:59. | :26:05. | |
atmosphere. A cell -- a smile in the sky there, that is sometimes called. | :26:06. | :26:12. | |
And some beautiful cloud formations. It was a bit chilly this morning, | :26:13. | :26:22. | |
but as the wind went down, we can see the rain pushing across from | :26:23. | :26:30. | |
Northern Ireland this evening. We can see the cloud building hour by | :26:31. | :26:35. | |
hour as we get past midnight. Where you hang on to clear skies for | :26:36. | :26:39. | |
prolonged periods, you might get 2 degrees here and there, but for most | :26:40. | :26:43. | |
of us you will see the cloud built, spots of drizzly rain, and nothing | :26:44. | :26:47. | |
more than that. The numbers are pretty good of -- at six or 7 | :26:48. | :26:54. | |
degrees for most of us. As it rises over high ground in the morning, we | :26:55. | :26:59. | |
could see spots of drizzly rain, but nothing more than that. Visibility | :27:00. | :27:02. | |
might not be brilliant, that is beeping at the highest rates. And | :27:03. | :27:07. | |
always a lot more clout than we have seen at any point. This is not one | :27:08. | :27:12. | |
of the best days of the week. Towards the tail end of the day, | :27:13. | :27:17. | |
brighter skies may try to work their way through. Not the weather we had, | :27:18. | :27:21. | |
but temperatures if anything slightly better. Between 11 and 13 | :27:22. | :27:24. | |
degrees. Happy with that. And doesn't | :27:25. | :27:30. | |
everything look better in the sunshine? | :27:31. | :27:33. | |
And don't you go better in the sunshine? | :27:34. | :27:35. | |
And those beautiful blue skies. I went out and had a wander and felt | :27:36. | :27:39. | |
warm on my lunch break. Diane and I are back at 1025. | :27:40. | :27:41. | |
Goodbye. Oh, the dragon. | :27:42. | :28:26. | |
