Welcome to BBC Points West with Sabet Choudhury and Alex Lovell | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
The Cheltenham woman killed by her ex-husband | :00:09. | :00:12. | |
Police and social workers s`y more should have been done to stop him. | :00:13. | :00:21. | |
He should have been convictdd and he should have been challenged by | :00:22. | :00:28. | |
everybody who he came into contact with. | :00:29. | :00:30. | |
We'll find out what changes have been made to help those in need | :00:31. | :00:37. | |
The widower told he can't ptt flowers on his wife's grave | :00:38. | :00:41. | |

Hi, join me later in the programme to find out why I am coming to | :00:54. | :01:01. | |
Bristol on Sunday. A review into the death | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
of a Cheltenham woman murdered by her ex-husband has found | :01:06. | :01:08. | |
authorities failed to understand Jane Wiggett was murdered | :01:09. | :01:10. | |
by Danny Spencer three years ago, Here's our Gloucestershire | :01:11. | :01:15. | |
reporter, Steve Knibbs. Jane Wiggett lived all of hdr adult | :01:16. | :01:21. | |
life suffering psychological and physical abuse at | :01:22. | :01:24. | |
the hands of Danny Spencer. When she went missing | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
in 2013, police were told that Spencer had been | :01:29. | :01:30. | |
in contact with Jane. So they called him, but he lied | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
because he'd already killed her And why is it that | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
she's not speaking to So have you got a telephone | :01:38. | :01:44. | |
number for her? Today a review into Jane's lurder | :01:45. | :01:53. | |
found that during 40 years of abuse she'd done everything right | :01:54. | :01:59. | |
as a victim - seeking help and advice from organisations that | :02:00. | :02:01. | |
should have made a difference. But over time she lost confhdence | :02:02. | :02:04. | |
in them and withdrew, trying to manage | :02:05. | :02:07. | |
the situation herself. The warning signs were | :02:08. | :02:09. | |
there for decades that Danny Spencer was dangerous, | :02:10. | :02:11. | |
but there was a systemic failure in recognising | :02:12. | :02:14. | |
the danger that Jane was in. Every agency that Jane went | :02:15. | :02:20. | |
to seemed to fail to recognise the seriousness of her | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
situation and she felt in the end The review found that Jane's | :02:25. | :02:27. | |
death was predictable because Danny Spencer displ`yed | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
"consistent abuse, control, But it found that her death wasn't | :02:32. | :02:33. | |
preventable because there w`s no information that "there | :02:34. | :02:40. | |
was an immediate But since Jane's murder, | :02:41. | :02:41. | |
and other similar cases, organisations in Gloucestershire | :02:42. | :02:50. | |
have overhauled We hold a daily meeting | :02:51. | :02:52. | |
with partners to unpick all of the domestic `buse | :02:53. | :02:56. | |

do we have all the informathon, are The most challenging | :03:00. | :03:03. | |
victims, the ones who This is where Jane | :03:04. | :03:06. | |
Wiggett lived near the centre of Cheltenham and died | :03:07. | :03:09. | |
at the hands of Danny Spencdr. While a lot has changed in how | :03:10. | :03:12. | |
victims of domestic abuse are helped in Gloucestershire, | :03:13. | :03:15. | |
there is acknowledgement th`t more can be done, especiallx when it | :03:16. | :03:17. | |
comes to dealing with the Ultimately the themes surrotnding | :03:18. | :03:20. | |
Jane Wiggett's death are all too familiar - a historic and ctltural | :03:21. | :03:26. | |
failure of organisations to understand and share with each | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
other the risk she faced from Steve Knibbs, BBC | :03:30. | :03:32. | |
Points West, Cheltenham. Sally Morrissey manages | :03:33. | :03:39. | |
the Gloucestershire Domestic Could Jane 's death have bedn | :03:40. | :04:01. | |
prevented here? At the time, not enough people had enough information | :04:02. | :04:04. | |
about how the situation was as risky for her. The problem was, although | :04:05. | :04:10. | |
she talked to a lot of people and a lot of different agencies, that had | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
not been joined up. And if ht had been joined up, as it would be | :04:14. | :04:18. | |
today, then the seriousness of the situation would have been estimated | :04:19. | :04:25. | |
probably -- properly. You wdre part of the panel looking into the case, | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
and that joined up service xou are talking about now exists now, but it | :04:30. | :04:34. | |
is too late for her and there are other victims who can now t`ke | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
advantage. Sadly it is too late for Jane. Today in Gloucestershhre we | :04:39. | :04:43. | |
have a daily meeting every day for all of the domestic incidents that | :04:44. | :04:47. | |
the police are called out to and agencies such as ourselves, social | :04:48. | :04:52. | |
services, the police, we all sit around and share information so we | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
have a full information of everything going on for the victim | :04:56. | :04:59. | |
and perpetrator. Why do you think it's taken so long for that to come | :05:00. | :05:05. | |
along? I think, for years, the police response was not verx good. | :05:06. | :05:08. | |
They did not take things seriously. I think a lot of other agencies did | :05:09. | :05:14. | |
not take things seriously and I think since the government lade | :05:15. | :05:18. | |
legislation there had to be a review after every domestic homicide, and | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
it started to come out that the answer in a lot of these cases is to | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
share information, for thosd agencies to come together and put a | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
plan in place to support thd victim. The sad fact is there are probably | :05:34. | :05:36. | |
lots of other people in Jand's position. How do you stop -, spot | :05:37. | :05:43. | |
the J -- danger signs? What anybody feeling uncomfortable tonight, | :05:44. | :05:50. | |
thinking could this happen to me, you need to phone up helplines like | :05:51. | :05:55. | |
the ones we do, like the wolen's aid helpline and talk it through with | :05:56. | :05:57. | |
someone and we will be able to talk to you about the sorts of bdhaviour | :05:58. | :06:02. | |
that you should be alarmed `bout if it is happening in your | :06:03. | :06:05. | |
relationship. I have to ask you this, the numbers of people being | :06:06. | :06:12. | |
abused rising at the moment? It s difficult to know if the nulbers are | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
rising. There are certainly more people coming forward than there | :06:17. | :06:19. | |
ever was, which is a good thing because it means we can get support | :06:20. | :06:23. | |
to people. And hopefully a lot early on in the situation so things don't | :06:24. | :06:26. | |
escalate to the point that they did with Jane. | :06:27. | :06:30. | |
A man who pretended to be a taxi driver and falsely imprisondd two | :06:31. | :06:33. | |
women has been sent to jail for a year. | :06:34. | :06:36. | |
Anthony Cox picked up his two victims from the taxi rank | :06:37. | :06:39. | |
He later told them he wasn't a taxi and refused to stop. | :06:40. | :06:45. | |
They jumped out when he slowed down and took a picture of his c`r. | :06:46. | :06:48. | |
Cox has also been banned from parking in a taxi rank | :06:49. | :06:51. | |
and being in a vehicle with women he doesn't know. | :06:52. | :06:56. | |
The West Country-based cigarette company Imperial Tobacco | :06:57. | :06:58. | |
is appealing against a decision forcing them to use plain p`ckaging. | :06:59. | :07:01. | |
Uniform packaging rules for tobacco were introduced | :07:02. | :07:03. | |
Imperial is one of four companies making the appeal, | :07:04. | :07:11. | |
after a legal challenge against the decision | :07:12. | :07:13. | |
The case is expected to last four days. | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
A man from Wiltshire is being told he can't have a vase | :07:18. | :07:20. | |
on his wife's grave because it's against new church rules. | :07:21. | :07:28. | |
Peter Walker's wife Diane dhed in May, and he wants a memorial | :07:29. | :07:31. | |
plaque with a vase for flowdrs in the churchyard at St Andrews | :07:32. | :07:34. | |
But the Diocese of Salisburx has brought in new rules and saxs | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
cutting the grass will be more difficult with the vase. | :07:40. | :07:41. | |
Here's our Wiltshire reporter Will Glennon. | :07:42. | :07:47. | |
For Peter Walker, a hard tile has been made worse. | :07:48. | :07:50. | |
His wife was killed in an accident in May. | :07:51. | :07:53. | |
She's been cremated and he'd like her ashes under a plaqte | :07:54. | :07:56. | |
in St Andrew's churchyard, with a hole for a flower vase. | :07:57. | :08:04. | |
The stonemason rang me up and said that I was not allowed to h`ve a | :08:05. | :08:09. | |
It is so insensitive and cold-hearted, I | :08:10. | :08:13. | |
They say it is due to mowing and upkeep cost. | :08:14. | :08:24. | |
If that comes above my wife's tablet... | :08:25. | :08:25. | |
The diocese of Salisbury brought in new rules this summer. | :08:26. | :08:32. | |
So even though many of the other stones have vases, no | :08:33. | :08:34. | |
It's meant to bring churches in line with others across Britain. | :08:35. | :08:41. | |
It's always difficult because you feel | :08:42. | :08:43. | |
sympathy for someone who is | :08:44. | :08:46. | |
grieving, but at the same thme we need certain standards across | :08:47. | :08:49. | |
Partly it is to do with health and safety, because we need to | :08:50. | :08:56. | |
It does make it easier to mow churchyards if everything is | :08:57. | :09:00. | |
Other parishioners say it does not affect the mowing at all. Wd could | :09:01. | :09:14. | |
not believe it. We could not believe the diktats had come out from | :09:15. | :09:18. | |
Salisbury. This is all voluntarily maintained and we pay a loc`l man to | :09:19. | :09:22. | |
know this. It isn't going to cost any more to have it done with or | :09:23. | :09:27. | |
without the flower vases, it is the same place, so it makes no sense to | :09:28. | :09:29. | |
us at all. Peter has been told he can | :09:30. | :09:31. | |
appeal the decision, but it'll cost almost ?300 this | :09:32. | :09:34. | |
time, and every future time someone Will Glennon, BBC | :09:35. | :09:37. | |
Points West, Wiltshire. Thanks for your company | :09:38. | :09:48. | |
here on Points West this evdning. Do stay tuned because we have plenty | :09:49. | :09:52. | |
more still to bring you, including: Betty excavation Ah Ki have been | :09:53. | :10:07. | |

We chat to the man behind Frank Spencer, and so many other | :10:09. | :10:11. | |
great comedy performances, as he prepares to be | :10:12. | :10:13. | |
And ahead of the world championships we'll meet the runner who rdfuses | :10:14. | :10:17. | |
A new telephone helpline has been started by the Bristol based charity | :10:18. | :10:22. | |
Unseen to try and help people who are the victims | :10:23. | :10:24. | |
The charity believes there are currently | :10:25. | :10:29. | |
13,000 slaves in the country right now. | :10:30. | :10:32. | |
Their new helpline is the fhrst of its kind in the UK. | :10:33. | :10:43. | |
Maybe you are a front line professional, doctor Aurora police | :10:44. | :10:49. | |
men, and you are worried about something you've seen a car wash, a | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
nail bar, a fruit farm. You will be able to call and get advice on what | :10:54. | :10:58. | |
you can do and give that intelligence and information. | :10:59. | :11:02. | |
Here is the number. We will check that number because it was slightly | :11:03. | :11:11. | |
different, but the one on the screen was correct actually. | :11:12. | :11:12. | |
Slavery has, of course, been around for centuries. | :11:13. | :11:14. | |
A new project at the University of Bristol has brought together | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
archaeologists and a group of writers to study what it felt | :11:19. | :11:21. | |
Together they examined the human remains of slaves, | :11:22. | :11:29. | |
found on plantations in Gran Canaria and Barbados. | :11:30. | :11:32. | |
They handled bones and learned about slaves' bodies, | :11:33. | :11:34. | |
and as Liz Beacon reports, it's prompted some | :11:35. | :11:37. | |
In the light of the sun, my mouth is covered, sealed. | :11:38. | :11:44. | |
During this project, Claudi` was one of the writers who handled human | :11:45. | :11:49. | |
Talking about the pain slavds endured has shaped her | :11:50. | :11:54. | |
What teeth are left are a shame that I won't show, yet they will stay | :11:55. | :12:02. | |
My head bent towards the ground my eyes cast down. | :12:03. | :12:09. | |
The artists involved have all been moved by what they've learndd. | :12:10. | :12:16. | |
They talk of backbreaking work that slaves were subjected to. | :12:17. | :12:22. | |
They've witnessed and touchdd worn and malnourished bones and ht's | :12:23. | :12:24. | |
Usually when writers write about slavery, | :12:25. | :12:27. | |
they might begin with historical fragments. | :12:28. | :12:34. | |
So things like legal documents or newspaper clippings | :12:35. | :12:36. | |
They are documents written from the view of the coloniser, the person | :12:37. | :12:47. | |
who is enslaving. So what we wanted to do was use | :12:48. | :12:48. | |
the bodies of enslaved people themselves as the starting point | :12:49. | :12:51. | |
and to think about the information that archaeological science can give | :12:52. | :12:54. | |
us about those bodies. They studied the archaeologhcal | :12:55. | :13:06. | |
histories of eight slaves, learning what they did, what they atd and | :13:07. | :13:11. | |
where they worked. They werd handing this bone saying it was frol a | :13:12. | :13:15. | |
plantation in Barbados, and that is like a stone 's throw from St | :13:16. | :13:19. | |
Vincent, the Caribbean island where my family is from and you start to | :13:20. | :13:24. | |
think that this is actually a lot closer. For me, I went on mx own | :13:25. | :13:29. | |
journey. I had to take that away and try and unravel what that khnd of | :13:30. | :13:31. | |
meant for me. On Saturday here in Bristol's | :13:32. | :13:33. | |
Georgian House these women A journey through a period of time | :13:34. | :13:36. | |
when humans were objects. I am to say nothing, | :13:37. | :13:46. | |
think nothing, feel nothing, be nothing, | :13:47. | :14:00. | |
but answerable to endless whims It's uncomfortable hearing | :14:01. | :14:03. | |
about slaves suffering when stood in a house built on slave trade | :14:04. | :14:10. | |
profit, but it forces those listening to confront a harsh | :14:11. | :14:13. | |
and painful past. Liz Beacon, BBC | :14:14. | :14:16. | |
Points West, Bristol. A wildlife charity is offerhng | :14:17. | :14:23. | |
a ?1,000 reward for anyone with information about the shooting | :14:24. | :14:26. | |
of a crane in Somerset. Swampy was reared by | :14:27. | :14:29. | |
the Great Crane Project, a programme to increase the birds' | :14:30. | :14:31. | |

at the Bristol Rovers game against Gillingham at the wdekend | :14:46. | :14:48. | |
could face criminal charges. Security at the ground were alerted | :14:49. | :14:55. | |
when the man wrote on Facebook that he planned to undercook food | :14:56. | :14:58. | |

Crawford is being honoured this weekend with an award that | :15:08. | :15:14. | |
recognises his contribution You'll probably know him best | :15:15. | :15:19. | |
as the actor who brought the accident-prone, yet lovdable, | :15:20. | :15:25. | |
Frank Spencer to our screens in the hit comedy | :15:26. | :15:29. | |
Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em. On Sunday, Michael will be talking | :15:30. | :15:39. | |
to an audience at St George's in Bristol about the | :15:40. | :15:49. | |
role of Frank Spencer And he'll also be presented | :15:50. | :15:51. | |
with the annual Aardman Slapstick Earlier, we asked | :15:52. | :15:54. | |
what it means to him. Well, rather unusually, | :15:55. | :16:04. | |
I'd never been considered just finished a really dram`tic role | :16:05. | :16:07. | |
in the West End, so it's gohng to be It's like going back to the early | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
years and things that truly made my name, | :16:13. | :16:21. | |
by doing Some Mothers, I did, but I'd done a lot | :16:22. | :16:25. | |
previously, because it was just really like being back at school | :16:26. | :16:33. | |
and doing things that you actually didn't get into trouble | :16:34. | :16:36. | |
for doing when you did them on the screen, | :16:37. | :16:39. | |
you got paid for them, | :16:40. | :16:40. | |
so I thought it was a reallx good way of earning | :16:41. | :16:43. | |
a Frank Spencer was one of those | :16:44. | :16:44. | |
enduring characters. Did you immediately | :16:45. | :16:48. | |
love him as soon as you Well, I'd done a play where I had | :16:49. | :16:50. | |
created this character, characterisation, who began to build | :16:51. | :17:01. | |
into something, and he was so sympathetic and childlike that | :17:02. | :17:09. | |
I thought I would love to bd able to use this in something in thd future, | :17:10. | :17:12. | |
in a play called No Sex, Pldase We're British, and it was the | :17:13. | :17:15. | |
longest-running comedy in the West So along came a script for le, | :17:16. | :17:18. | |
out of the blue, from the BBC, and it had been turned | :17:19. | :17:27. | |
down by Ronnie Barker And I found something very `musing | :17:28. | :17:29. | |
about it and we changed it ` There was a character and I wanted | :17:30. | :17:39. | |
him to be able to do stunts. Things will always went wrong | :17:40. | :17:49. | |
for him, but let's do them `nd take it back to physical comedy, | :17:50. | :17:52. | |
which was Laurel and Hardy, Harold Lloyd | :17:53. | :17:54. | |
and Buster Keaton were Being a boy, you wanted to do this, | :17:55. | :17:57. | |
roller skating behind a bus, how can you ever think of anything better | :17:58. | :18:08. | |
than doing something like that and Well, we did it for Sport Rdlief, | :18:09. | :18:11. | |
in March this year, I redid it for Sport Relief and recreated | :18:12. | :18:17. | |
that whole scene. kind of full circle, really, | :18:18. | :18:21. | |
because you have this wonderful character that people still smile | :18:22. | :18:25. | |
at the mention of his name, | :18:26. | :18:27. | |
and then you wanted to be t`ken very There was such a change and now | :18:28. | :18:30. | |
you are being honoured for I'm certainly not complaining | :18:31. | :18:35. | |
about the success I had with Some Mothers, because ht was | :18:36. | :18:44. | |
unbelievable to have 26 million people tuning in every week | :18:45. | :18:52. | |
and saying they liked it and laughed Every generation of | :18:53. | :18:55. | |
the family was watching. That is something I am very, | :18:56. | :19:02. | |
very proud of, Michael, your favourite Frank | :19:03. | :19:05. | |
Spencer moment? I suppose the | :19:06. | :19:11. | |
roller-skating sequence was really one of the most | :19:12. | :19:22. | |
satisfying, because it was so much Going over the edge of the cliff was | :19:23. | :19:25. | |
quite exciting too. And the church roof | :19:26. | :19:36. | |
as well, we forgot that Yes, the church roof | :19:37. | :19:39. | |
and a helicopter taking me off. Nobody warned me that | :19:40. | :19:43. | |
when the helicopter brought me back down-to-earth, | :19:44. | :19:47. | |
there would be static and I had the biggest electric shock | :19:48. | :19:50. | |
I had in my life. I thought I had dropped | :19:51. | :19:53. | |
You still stayed in character though? | :19:54. | :19:57. | |
Michael, it has been an "oooh" of a pleasure. | :19:58. | :20:08. | |
Thank you very much for takhng the time to speak to us. | :20:09. | :20:14. | |
Thank you, Alex, thank you, Seb. | :20:15. | :20:19. | |
What a delight, we will put that on the social media, because it was | :20:20. | :20:27. | |
lovely. It's a big night for Taunton Town | :20:28. | :20:28. | |
and their supporters with a place in the first round of the F@ | :20:29. | :20:31. | |
Cup at stake. Taunton are away to Hemel Hdmpstead | :20:32. | :20:34. | |
in their cup replay - a team that plays two | :20:35. | :20:37. | |
divisions above them. The winners will face Barrow | :20:38. | :20:38. | |
in the first round proper. Taunton haven't made it that far | :20:39. | :20:41. | |
in the competition I think we've got a good ch`nce I'd | :20:42. | :20:54. | |
tell you what, it will be a tough game and I think it could even go to | :20:55. | :20:59. | |
penalties. It will be tight. We are going to do it. We are going to be | :21:00. | :21:03. | |
Manchester United in the thhrd round at Old Trafford. -- beat Manchester | :21:04. | :21:05. | |
United. And three of our teams are hnvolved | :21:06. | :21:06. | |
in league games tonight. Bristol City and Bristol Rovers | :21:07. | :21:09. | |
are both away, while Swindon Now if you see an army | :21:10. | :21:12. | |
of Peter Pans in Bristol They're trying to break a world | :21:13. | :21:17. | |
record for the most people dressed up as the famous character | :21:18. | :21:23. | |
in one place. Some have already started to appear, | :21:24. | :21:24. | |
but the official count is outside the Victoria Rools | :21:25. | :21:27. | |
at nine o'clock tonight. They need 300 Pans to fly | :21:28. | :21:29. | |
into the record books. We just thought we'd do somdthing | :21:30. | :21:42. | |
creative and fun that would get people talking as well, so we | :21:43. | :21:45. | |
decided to break a world record because it is unique and no one has | :21:46. | :21:49. | |
done it in Bristol before, so it will be really fun tonight. | :21:50. | :21:51. | |
And we will have those picttres on our late bulletin at 10:30pm | :21:52. | :21:56. | |
I think we have spotted somd. I hope there will be more than just those | :21:57. | :22:03. | |
seven. We have to find out what the collective is for Peter Pan. | :22:04. | :22:05. | |
Our next guest is likely to put us all to shame. | :22:06. | :22:08. | |
Pat Gallagher, who lives in Portishead, is a juniors' running | :22:09. | :22:10. | |
coach who works in Bristol and South Gloucestershire, | :22:11. | :22:12. | |
and has been running since she was a young girl. | :22:13. | :22:15. | |
She's getting ready to go off to Australia this week to t`ke part | :22:16. | :22:18. | |
enough, Pat, I hope she won't mind me sharing, is 70 years old. | :22:19. | :22:29. | |
I am, yes. You look amazing, and you look even better when you are | :22:30. | :22:39. | |
running. Tell us about the dvent. It is for people aged 35 and over. Men | :22:40. | :22:45. | |
and women. It goes up in five-year bands. The distances are from 1 0 | :22:46. | :22:52. | |
metres up to 10,000 metres. There are other field events. What are | :22:53. | :22:59. | |
your events? I am doing the 801 000 500. You've done it before? -- the | :23:00. | :23:10. | |
800 and 1500. What you get out of doing it away from home? I couldn't | :23:11. | :23:17. | |
run just to keep fit. I likd to compete. The competition gets | :23:18. | :23:20. | |
satiated with this. You are off to Perth tomorrow, is that right? | :23:21. | :23:25. | |
That's right, yes I am. When you have to be ready to compete? I have | :23:26. | :23:31. | |
nine days. That's not long to prepare. That's all right. Xou can | :23:32. | :23:36. | |
get some sightseeing. Songs get over the jet lag. You coach runnhng as | :23:37. | :23:42. | |
well, so can you tell me about what should try to pass on to yotr | :23:43. | :23:47. | |
students? The love of running. I started with my own two goals - two | :23:48. | :23:55. | |
girls, and it's gone on frol there. It can be quite an impactful | :23:56. | :23:58. | |
activity with running on thd knees and joints. Your knees start going | :23:59. | :24:06. | |
downhill once you are 21 anxway You've been saying that for a while. | :24:07. | :24:12. | |
Yes, and they have gone downhill. They are obviously still working | :24:13. | :24:15. | |
well enough for you to compdte. What is a competition like in Perth? It's | :24:16. | :24:20. | |
going to be tough. There will be the hardest thing? It will be hot as | :24:21. | :24:26. | |
well. I don't mind the heat, I don't like the cold. You don't like | :24:27. | :24:29. | |
running in this country that much then. Once you are out therd, are | :24:30. | :24:34. | |
there other people who you know who will be running? Yes, loads. You | :24:35. | :24:40. | |
know your competitors, you see them every year, every two years. Some | :24:41. | :24:46. | |
have a break and do not comd back until they are in the new age group. | :24:47. | :24:51. | |
Have you beat any of them? We have but we will wait and see thhs time. | :24:52. | :24:57. | |
Will you let us know? I'm not as fit as I was a few years ago. You are | :24:58. | :25:04. | |
fitter! Well, good luck, and have an amazing time. I'm sure I will. | :25:05. | :25:08. | |
Thanks ever so much and letters know how you get on. From the thought of | :25:09. | :25:14. | |
Perth we go to the thought of what is happening out there. | :25:15. | :25:16. | |
A look at the weather now with Alina Jenkins. | :25:17. | :25:21. | |
No weather like Australia at the moment and the warmth of September | :25:22. | :25:26. | |
is a distant memory as we are in an autumnal chill. The early r`in | :25:27. | :25:30. | |
cleared away but behind it we had cool and fresh conditions ptshing | :25:31. | :25:33. | |
across, so despite sunshine across the region this was a fairlx typical | :25:34. | :25:38. | |
scene, with highs of 16 Celsius but this afternoon more like 11 or 2 | :25:39. | :25:43. | |
they get used to these scends, dry, bright and settled as a lot of it is | :25:44. | :25:47. | |
in the forecast will stop this evening and overnight there could be | :25:48. | :25:51. | |
one or two showers but some places will be dry and skies will become | :25:52. | :25:55. | |
increasingly clear. In the countryside we could see | :25:56. | :25:58. | |
temperatures down to four or five Celsius but holding up to ehght or | :25:59. | :26:02. | |
nine in the centre of town. We see an area of low pressure pushing | :26:03. | :26:06. | |
eastwards tomorrow with high pressure building but allowhng a | :26:07. | :26:11. | |
north-westerly wind, call dhrection at any time. We get off to ` chilly | :26:12. | :26:16. | |
start but bright. Clouds will bubble up through the day and spre`d out | :26:17. | :26:20. | |
and it brings the chance of showers. Many places might stay largdly dry. | :26:21. | :26:25. | |
With a north-westerly wind, highs of 13 or 14 always on the cool side. | :26:26. | :26:32. | |
Tomorrow evening in a simil`r fashion, quite quiet, incre`singly | :26:33. | :26:35. | |
clear skies so it will be a touch colder am a big a touch of frost in | :26:36. | :26:40. | |
rural spots as temperatures go down to three Celsius. At the end of the | :26:41. | :26:45. | |
week the high-pressure dominates the weather story so it keeps things dry | :26:46. | :26:51. | |
and settled. Thursday will be a fine day with good spells of sunshine. We | :26:52. | :26:55. | |
cannot rule out a shower but I suspect many people will avoid them. | :26:56. | :26:59. | |
There will be plenty of sunshine through Thursday afternoon so even | :27:00. | :27:04. | |
though we have a north-westdrly wind, in the sunshine, 12 or 13 | :27:05. | :27:08. | |
quite typical for the time of year and it should feel pleasant. If you | :27:09. | :27:11. | |
are looking for any more rahn there is none in the forecast and the | :27:12. | :27:14. | |
high-pressure keeps things dry and settled through the end of the | :27:15. | :27:20. | |
weekend and into the weekend, there is an increasing chance Apache Frost | :27:21. | :27:26. | |
and fog, and turning windy `nd quite cool at the weekend -- Apache Frost. | :27:27. | :27:32. | |
I feel inspired and yet a bht useless to be sitting next to Pat | :27:33. | :27:39. | |
looking so fit and great. You need to take up running now, with your | :27:40. | :27:44. | |
bad knees as well. We are b`ck later in the ten o'clock bulletin with | :27:45. | :27:49. | |
hopefully some extra Peter Pan costumes. Good luck on that one | :27:50. | :27:50. |
