That's all from the BBC News at Six. It's goodbye from me. | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
Welcome to South East Today, I'm Polly Evans. | :00:09. | :00:10. | |
Jail for the violent burglars, tracked by their 80`year`old | :00:11. | :00:16. | |
I cannot explain it. I cannot explain why I reacted how I did. | :00:17. | :00:35. | |
Radical plans put forward to cut obesity in Medway, officially one | :00:36. | :00:38. | |
A former detective who murdered his former partner in front of their | :00:39. | :00:44. | |
children, killed himself in his prison cell, an inquest jury finds. | :00:45. | :00:47. | |
We're in Eastbourne with the details. | :00:48. | :00:49. | |
Reviving an old favourite. All Creatures Great and Small | :00:50. | :00:52. | |
And marital bliss. The Kent couple celebrating their 75th wedding | :00:53. | :00:59. | |
anniversary claim they have never argued. | :01:00. | :01:11. | |
An 80`year`old man from Kent has been describing how he took on gang | :01:12. | :01:16. | |
violent robbers and helped police to find them with a tracking device | :01:17. | :01:20. | |
William Meadows caught the men leaving his home in Wrotham | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
They battered his car with a sledge hammer whilst he was still | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
in it, and then drove off in it but they didn't know | :01:29. | :01:31. | |
Here's our Home Affairs reporter, Rebecca Williams. | :01:32. | :01:39. | |
Jailed for a total of 11 years, they violently attacked a pensioner last | :01:40. | :01:47. | |
year. When eight`year`old Bill tried to block their escape route with his | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
car, they made off on it. It was as mobile phone's tracking device that | :01:52. | :01:56. | |
enabled police to catch them. I cannot explain it. It's difficult to | :01:57. | :02:01. | |
say why, why I reacted the way I did. People ask me if I was scared | :02:02. | :02:06. | |
and I can only say that don't recall feeling frightened. I don't recall | :02:07. | :02:13. | |
feeling angry. I was very indignant. When I first heard, Bill said I | :02:14. | :02:16. | |
first heard, Bill said are you sitting down? My stomach immediately | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
went upside down. Yes, it was awe`inspiring to come here and see | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
the police cars at the front. I was pretty round`up. The men caused | :02:27. | :02:31. | |
considerable damage to the house, breaking in through both the front | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
and patio doors. Mr Meadows returned home just as the burglars were | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
trying to escape. He and his gardener plot this driveway with | :02:40. | :02:41. | |
their cars to stop them getting away. As he did so, one of the men | :02:42. | :02:46. | |
started to smashes windscreen with a sledgehammer. I was worried. We'll | :02:47. | :02:51. | |
is 80 years old and he was in the car. I saw the sledgehammer hit the | :02:52. | :02:56. | |
car and just panicked. I thought the sledgehammer was going to go | :02:57. | :03:00. | |
straight through the car. Mr Meadows can see that his mobile phone had | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
gone from the village towards Dartford. The men drove the car to | :03:05. | :03:10. | |
Dartford Heath where is was abandoned. We would encourage any | :03:11. | :03:16. | |
member of the public to owns a smartphone to download this kind of | :03:17. | :03:19. | |
application to their product. It gives up as an opportunity to track | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
it, bring the offender to justice and of course return the property to | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
its rightful owner. Bill says since the incident, he is more concerned | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
than ever before about his own security. But he is urging people to | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
use technology to protect themselves from similar incidents. | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
Compulsory walking to school and a ban on fast food restaurants | :03:42. | :03:44. | |
They're just two of the radical proposals put forward | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
for debate at the first ever obesity summit held in Medway today. | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
The Medway Towns has the second highest obesity rate in England, | :03:54. | :03:56. | |
with one third of adults classed as obese, and a fifth of children | :03:57. | :03:59. | |
Medway has an obesity problem, so how should it be tackled? That job | :04:00. | :04:14. | |
got underway today and there were some radical ideas. Stopping parking | :04:15. | :04:22. | |
within half a mile of school, for example. These sort of... They might | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
not be popular but what we have to ensure it is our youngsters have a | :04:28. | :04:33. | |
good start in life. Another idea was restricted Wi`Fi so children cannot | :04:34. | :04:39. | |
sit for hours on end playing with gadgets, and bans on fast food shops | :04:40. | :04:45. | |
near schools and out right ban on Sunday trading altogether. I | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
wouldn't ban Sunday trading because we often like to go out to the pub | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
or something. That is a social thing, getting together and going | :04:54. | :04:58. | |
out. I don't think it. People going too fast food chains. It comes down | :04:59. | :05:04. | |
to eating habits. Tackling obesity can only be a successive | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
supermarkets get on board. Tesco one of the first to remove sweets | :05:09. | :05:19. | |
from... It's a lack of education. It is not the supermarkets. There is no | :05:20. | :05:30. | |
quick fix. Whatever ideas are put into action, they need to be | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
realistic and achievable. Well, we're joined by Adam Lawrence | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
from Gillingham Football Club which Thank you for joining us. The club | :05:40. | :05:51. | |
must recognise that obesity is a serious problem in Medway, to be | :05:52. | :05:55. | |
involved in this way. Yes, absolutely. It was a great event | :05:56. | :06:02. | |
organised by the council. A lot of what came out today was a surprise. | :06:03. | :06:09. | |
Some of the statistics were 20% of year six students being obese to, | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
which surprised me. We have a huge role in our local community to do | :06:15. | :06:17. | |
what we can to make a difference and try and reduce those numbers. We do | :06:18. | :06:21. | |
an awful lot of work with local primary schools and some secondary | :06:22. | :06:26. | |
schools, as well as further education establishments. What are | :06:27. | :06:33. | |
the specific ideas that would help to solve this problem? Lots of ideas | :06:34. | :06:39. | |
were aired today. Some were radical and some were less so. As a club, we | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
can do a lot of things. We need to look at physical activity rates in | :06:45. | :06:50. | |
young kids but education is key. We do do things. We have an education | :06:51. | :06:56. | |
programme about easing healthily and being able to cook healthy meals. | :06:57. | :07:02. | |
There is only so much that sporting institutions can do to change | :07:03. | :07:08. | |
people's lifestyles. Even with the London Olympics with promises of | :07:09. | :07:13. | |
funding and legacy, that is thought to be faltering, isn't it? Possibly | :07:14. | :07:21. | |
so. There are some lasting effects from that, positive ones. We work | :07:22. | :07:27. | |
with a lot of kids where they have taken up a lot of activities. They | :07:28. | :07:30. | |
may not have known about that previously. But I think it is about | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
changing lifestyles and how people view exercise and eating healthily. | :07:36. | :07:38. | |
That comes with education for younger people. Also working with | :07:39. | :07:45. | |
young families. The more we can do to invite people into our club and | :07:46. | :07:48. | |
get out to sea as many people as we can locally, that was definitely | :07:49. | :07:50. | |
help. a woman badly trampled | :07:51. | :07:56. | |
by a cow calls for greater safety A former detective who was jailed | :07:57. | :08:01. | |
for murdering his partner in front of their two young children | :08:02. | :08:09. | |
did commit suicide in his prison Peter Foster was found hanging | :08:10. | :08:12. | |
at Lewes Prison in July 2012. He had been jailed for life, a month | :08:13. | :08:17. | |
earlier for stabbing Detective Constable Heather Cooper and beating | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
her with a baseball bat. He hanged himself with a bed sheet | :08:22. | :08:39. | |
just after a month... Although he was considered a suicide link, staff | :08:40. | :08:43. | |
at the prison had reduced the level of supervision he was under in the | :08:44. | :08:47. | |
weeks before his death. However, today, as the inquest jury returned | :08:48. | :08:53. | |
its verdict of suicide, it attributed no blame. Simply | :08:54. | :08:56. | |
stating, that Peter Foster had been moved to a set with reduced | :08:57. | :09:02. | |
supervision to improve his quality of life, and there, he killed | :09:03. | :09:15. | |
himself. `` cell. He tried to take his own life three times whilst in | :09:16. | :09:22. | |
custody. Staff at the prison said he had seemed more positive in the days | :09:23. | :09:26. | |
before his death. The decision to move him from around the clock | :09:27. | :09:29. | |
scrutiny had been a calculated risk. Forensic psychiatrist Doctor | :09:30. | :09:35. | |
Caroline Arden told the inquest, I cannot see it as being humane in, | :09:36. | :09:40. | |
keeping someone in a cell in those conditions for a period of 17 plus | :09:41. | :09:45. | |
years. We have to give people some responsibility for moving forward, | :09:46. | :09:47. | |
keeping them safe and improving their quality of life. Peter Foster | :09:48. | :09:53. | |
stabbed his partner and fellow detective, Heather Cooper, to death | :09:54. | :09:56. | |
at their home in Surrey, leaving their two children without a mother | :09:57. | :10:00. | |
and with a father facing a minimum of 17 years in prison. A former | :10:01. | :10:05. | |
colleague told the inquest his children were his reason for living | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
and his sentencing may have pushed him over the edge. | :10:10. | :10:16. | |
He is outside the coroner 's Court for us now. In many ways, this | :10:17. | :10:21. | |
verdict seemed inevitable. Yes, I think that is right. This | :10:22. | :10:27. | |
inquest was more about scrutinising that decision to allow a man who was | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
a known suicide risk to be moved into a cell, where he was only | :10:32. | :10:38. | |
supervised once an hour. The staff maintained it was a decision that | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
was made to help his mental health and to improve his quality of life. | :10:44. | :10:47. | |
They said they couldn't conceive of a situation where a man would be | :10:48. | :10:52. | |
under constant supervision, a round`the`clock, for the entirety of | :10:53. | :10:53. | |
his sentence. Gatwick should be allowed to build | :10:54. | :10:56. | |
another terminal and a second runway south of the existing one, according | :10:57. | :10:59. | |
to East Sussex County Council. The authority has this afternoon | :11:00. | :11:02. | |
endorsed the airport's preferred option, which would see | :11:03. | :11:04. | |
a new runway created just over a kilometre south of the existing one, | :11:05. | :11:07. | |
and the creation of a new terminal. The number of firefighters in | :11:08. | :11:11. | |
West Sussex could be cut under plans The County Council says | :11:12. | :11:14. | |
the plans would save ?1.6 million They also say staff shift | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
patterns could be altered, but all They brighten woman who was left | :11:19. | :11:35. | |
with a punctured lung and six broken ribs after she was attacked by a cow | :11:36. | :11:38. | |
on the South Downs says that more needs to be done to protect people | :11:39. | :11:43. | |
who are walking in the countryside. She was on a footpath two weeks ago | :11:44. | :11:46. | |
when she was trampled and butted by the animal. Their injuries were so | :11:47. | :11:50. | |
severe, she had to be airlifted to hospital. | :11:51. | :11:57. | |
They appear placid, tranquil, just chewing the cud. But appearances can | :11:58. | :12:04. | |
be deceptive. They can charge to her once and was coming for her a second | :12:05. | :12:08. | |
time. She says she thought she was going to die. It returned and it | :12:09. | :12:14. | |
started head`butting me, putting its weight on me. It was absolutely | :12:15. | :12:21. | |
terrifying. Cows do present a risk. Latest figures show 32 people were | :12:22. | :12:26. | |
killed by cattle between 2001 and 2011. 15 of those deaths were caused | :12:27. | :12:33. | |
by balls in that same period, 439 people suffered major injuries. One | :12:34. | :12:36. | |
of those was a present of question Time, David Dimbleby, briefly | :12:37. | :12:43. | |
knocked out in a few years ago. Before you enter the field, if you | :12:44. | :12:46. | |
notice there are cattle in the field, take a look and see if you | :12:47. | :12:51. | |
can't avoid walking through the cattle, especially if there is a cow | :12:52. | :12:54. | |
and their car. Walk slowly, don't run. Don't get too scared. Local | :12:55. | :13:00. | |
farmers, who understand their animals, also have some simple | :13:01. | :13:04. | |
advice for walkers. The ones that have calves running with them are a | :13:05. | :13:09. | |
little bit more dangerous. If they do come to you, look at them, stand | :13:10. | :13:19. | |
still and they will mostly go away. The terror of being crushed to the | :13:20. | :13:24. | |
point where I couldn't breathe. I was managing screens which is why | :13:25. | :13:30. | |
the couple returned to help me. In between the screens, I couldn't | :13:31. | :13:33. | |
breathe at all. It was very frightening. Tonight, the local | :13:34. | :13:38. | |
authority have published a reminder that the East Sussex countryside is | :13:39. | :13:44. | |
working farmland with all the associated risk that implies. | :13:45. | :13:57. | |
Two violent burglars have been jailed, after they were caught | :13:58. | :14:00. | |

William Meadows caught the men leaving his home in Wrotham | :14:04. | :14:06. | |
They battered his car with a sledge hammer whilst he was still | :14:07. | :14:10. | |
in it, and then drove off in it but they didn't know | :14:11. | :14:13. | |
One man's effor to raise a battalion to fight in World War I | :14:14. | :14:19. | |

We have rain on the way from tomorrow. By the end of the week, | :14:23. | :14:26. | |
some fairly lively showers. Join me later for the forecast. | :14:27. | :14:30. | |
Sammy Morgan from Rye is one of those extraordinary characters | :14:31. | :14:33. | |
who suffered a lifechanging injury but has used it as the opportunity | :14:34. | :14:36. | |
The former army medic was in a terrible car crash four years | :14:37. | :14:44. | |
But during her seven months in hospital she came up with a plan to | :14:45. | :14:50. | |
create handmade, uniformed teddy bears to raise money for injured | :14:51. | :14:57. | |
She nearly lost her life now Sammy Morgan is using the time | :14:58. | :15:03. | |
She does it by making commemorative bears in military costume. | :15:04. | :15:13. | |
Being an ex`soldier myself, I have studied the military for years and I | :15:14. | :15:31. | |
know what them uniforms look like. I was left with the inability to eat, | :15:32. | :15:36. | |
drink some of them. I cannot eat solid food now. I eat what a | :15:37. | :15:41. | |
three`month`old baby eats. I didn't realise until a few months ago that | :15:42. | :15:47. | |
my mental injuries were far worse. I have been diagnosed with | :15:48. | :15:52. | |
post`traumatic stress disorder. The 48`year`old makes history bears for | :15:53. | :15:58. | |
charity. The money she raises helped by military families respite | :15:59. | :16:01. | |
holidays after the death of a loved one she couldn't do it without the | :16:02. | :16:06. | |
help of six voluntary workers. It's a brilliant idea. People can keep | :16:07. | :16:10. | |
them and pass on, rather than by and chuck away. They can pass them to | :16:11. | :16:14. | |
the family and it is all for a good cause as well. And as an additional | :16:15. | :16:20. | |
point of detail, Sam uses the original regimental material for all | :16:21. | :16:24. | |
the teddy bears uniforms. Just have a look. Customers buy the toys from | :16:25. | :16:30. | |
the military heroes trading website with the former soldier making | :16:31. | :16:33. | |
around 500 bears a week. More teddies are on the way, including | :16:34. | :16:36. | |
eight Winston Churchill bear. The aim is to raise enough money to fund | :16:37. | :16:38. | |
a military museum in Eastbourne. In the 1970's the bucolic tales of | :16:39. | :17:04. | |
country vets James Herriot, Tristan Farnon and his irascible brother | :17:05. | :17:08. | |
Siegfried gripped the nation, as they battled with cows and cats and | :17:09. | :17:10. | |
a pekingese dog called tricky`woo. Now All Creatures Great and | :17:11. | :17:14. | |
Small has been adapted for the stage for the first time and its at the | :17:15. | :17:17. | |
Theatre Royal in Brighton this week Jane Witherspoon is there now. | :17:18. | :17:22. | |
Jane it was hugely popular in its In the 1970s, it was pulling in | :17:23. | :17:32. | |
around 20 million viewers. I've just been inside the Theatre Royal, | :17:33. | :17:36. | |
catching up with a cast of the new production. We managed to fill them | :17:37. | :17:45. | |
in their rehearsals. `` film them. | :17:46. | :18:03. | |
All my tie have been a pothole has all times. It may be summer but it | :18:04. | :18:08. | |
is bitter up there at four in the morning. An all`star ensemble cast | :18:09. | :18:19. | |
including Lee Latchford Evans. This is the first stroke play that I have | :18:20. | :18:23. | |
ever done. The musicals and have toured with the band. Touring is not | :18:24. | :18:28. | |
a shock. Being on a stage with a live audience that is there, where I | :18:29. | :18:32. | |
can see their eyes, that is different. And this is the band he | :18:33. | :18:41. | |
is talking about. He is best known for being one fifth of the 90s pop | :18:42. | :18:46. | |
group, Steps. I guess you get a lot of fans coming to see you. I have | :18:47. | :18:52. | |
had if you already which is great. Respect to them, because they put | :18:53. | :18:55. | |
their hand in their pocket, turn up and I really do appreciate that. The | :18:56. | :19:00. | |
play also stars Susan Penhaligon. For over 40 years, she's graced the | :19:01. | :19:05. | |
stage and screen, working with acting royalty like Judi Dench. | :19:06. | :19:10. | |
Being an actor is a job. You have your moment in the sun, which I hope | :19:11. | :19:16. | |
everyone does. Every aspiring actor, I hope they have their moment, and | :19:17. | :19:22. | |
after that, I think you work. They will be donning the vets's white | :19:23. | :19:27. | |
coats from Saturday. It is great to see a bit of the | :19:28. | :19:29. | |
North on the south`east coast. They were farm workers, railwaymen | :19:30. | :19:44. | |
even footballers but when the call came they all answered it. In 1914 | :19:45. | :19:47. | |
Colonel Lowther, the owner of Herstmonceux Castle in Sussex, | :19:48. | :19:51. | |
decided to raise his own battalion and fight together. But their | :19:52. | :19:54. | |
bravery and comradeship would have a devastating affect on the towns and | :19:55. | :20:00. | |
villages they left behind as Sara This castle walls rebuilt by Colonel | :20:01. | :20:14. | |
Crowther, who hosted fabulous society parties here. Come 1914, his | :20:15. | :20:19. | |
attention turned to war. He had fought in the Boer War. He was put | :20:20. | :20:24. | |
up for a Victoria Cross. He was a kernel so he had a military | :20:25. | :20:28. | |
background. He joined parliament in 1900 and didn't do a lot. But it | :20:29. | :20:33. | |
seems as though in 1914, when war breaks out, he becomes very active. | :20:34. | :20:39. | |
And this would be his legacy. With permission from the War office, he | :20:40. | :20:43. | |
called on the men of Sussex to sign up for a South Downs Battalion. | :20:44. | :20:46. | |
Within two days, more than 1000 had volunteered. Farm workers, | :20:47. | :20:52. | |
railwaymen, sports teams all joined together. Peter the sheep was | :20:53. | :20:57. | |
allowed to roam around the castle and became fair basket. ` became | :20:58. | :21:06. | |
their mascot. The general feeling was, it's a jolly. It's going to be | :21:07. | :21:10. | |
over by Christmas so let's get in before it finishes. That was the | :21:11. | :21:16. | |
general feeling. 3000 Sussex man joined, and that for three | :21:17. | :21:26. | |
battalions. One of them, William, another, Frank Richards. People were | :21:27. | :21:32. | |
a lot more community minded and of course, the interest in joining up | :21:33. | :21:35. | |
to go to fight with your pals, the people that you knew, your | :21:36. | :21:39. | |
workmates, made it a lot more secure for many of them. For two years, | :21:40. | :21:44. | |
they trained here but as plans were put in place for what would become | :21:45. | :21:48. | |
the war's most infamous slaughter, they were sent to France. They were | :21:49. | :21:54. | |
to be given fair own mission, meant as a diversionary tactic for what | :21:55. | :21:59. | |
was to come. They were sent over the top at Riche Bork, the day before | :22:00. | :22:04. | |
the Battle of the song was due to begin. The tactic did not work. All | :22:05. | :22:09. | |
these men climbed out of their trenches. They have to go through | :22:10. | :22:14. | |
these designated lanes to get to the German trenches. Because of the | :22:15. | :22:17. | |
shellfire, it was all jumbled up and down they couldn't get through the | :22:18. | :22:22. | |
wire. The German machine gunners were just saying thank you very | :22:23. | :22:30. | |
much, bang, bang, bang. 365 men were killed or reported missing. 1000 | :22:31. | :22:33. | |
more were injured. Nelson Carter was more were injured. Nelson Carter was | :22:34. | :22:40. | |
shot dead after time and again going into no man's land to rescue injured | :22:41. | :22:43. | |
comrades. He was awarded the Victoria Cross. This footballer, | :22:44. | :22:50. | |
William, lost a leg. Frank Richards went missing, his body never find. | :22:51. | :22:55. | |
It became known as the day Sussex died. It was complete slaughter and | :22:56. | :23:02. | |
a very hard day, particularly for the towns and villages across the | :23:03. | :23:08. | |
south coast to Sussex, where there was not hardly a town or village | :23:09. | :23:12. | |
where a family didn't lose somebody. It's one of the greatest things and | :23:13. | :23:16. | |
one of the worst things of the war, the fact you could join up with your | :23:17. | :23:19. | |
friends, with family members but it meant they all died together. The | :23:20. | :23:25. | |
impact on villages, communities, was absolutely atrocious. The survivors | :23:26. | :23:30. | |
would go on to the Somme and then Passchendaele. Only a handful would | :23:31. | :23:41. | |
overcome. ` would ever come home. There is more on the centenary of | :23:42. | :23:45. | |
World War I and the enduring impact of the conflict on our website. | :23:46. | :24:04. | |
A couple from Gillingham were today thrown a surprise party by their | :24:05. | :24:07. | |
family to celebrate their 75th Wedding anniversary. Jack and Hilda | :24:08. | :24:10. | |
Graham married in 1939, after they met outside of Woolworths in Chatham | :24:11. | :24:13. | |
have a wedding cake at their small event, so today they were treated to | :24:14. | :24:20. | |
a cake and lunch as part of the celebrations. Lucinda Adam reports. | :24:21. | :24:25. | |
75 years of marriage and never a crossword, they claim. What is the | :24:26. | :24:31. | |
secret to long lasting love? We don't argue. I give her a cuddle | :24:32. | :24:42. | |
every night. She enjoys it. They met outside this were worse in Chatham | :24:43. | :24:46. | |
high Street, when 15`year`old Hilda was shopping. It wasn't quite love | :24:47. | :24:51. | |
at first sight. I went out with your cousin first, didn't I? She was the | :24:52. | :25:01. | |
best one. Three years later, they married, with their two fathers as | :25:02. | :25:06. | |
witnesses, no photos and not even a cake. During their marriage, they've | :25:07. | :25:11. | |
seen 14 different prime ministers. Back in 1936, the average house in | :25:12. | :25:16. | |
the UK cost just ?550. Jack and Hilda have lived in the same home | :25:17. | :25:22. | |
the whole marriage. When they met, a pick and mix from Woolworths cost | :25:23. | :25:27. | |
just 2p. Today, there was cake, as they celebrated with their two | :25:28. | :25:32. | |
daughters and just some of their seven grandchildren, 14 | :25:33. | :25:34. | |
great`grandchildren and for great`great`grandchildren. Mum is | :25:35. | :25:39. | |
shy but my father will make friends with everybody. They are a very | :25:40. | :25:43. | |
happy`go`lucky couple. They gave us a holiday every year. We had two | :25:44. | :25:50. | |
weeks down the country. No matter how hard times were, they gave us a | :25:51. | :25:53. | |
holiday and that is what we remember most. On their wedding day, did they | :25:54. | :25:59. | |
ever imagined they would be celebrating their 75th anniversary | :26:00. | :26:05. | |
surrounded by family? Not with this lot! Not with so many, anyway. If it | :26:06. | :26:13. | |
wasn't for us, they wouldn't be any of them. | :26:14. | :26:24. | |
Congratulations. Not so much reason to celebrate with the weather | :26:25. | :26:25. | |
though. Lots of rain for tomorrow, I'm | :26:26. | :26:34. | |
afraid. Today, some sunshine but also some scattered showers. Fairly | :26:35. | :26:39. | |
sharp way we saw them. Highs of 18 or 19 degrees. As we go into | :26:40. | :26:44. | |
tonight, we are going to be a missionary drive but we could see | :26:45. | :26:49. | |
this band of rain arrived by two o'clock tomorrow morning. All of us | :26:50. | :26:56. | |
will be seeing it. It would be a wet start to the day tomorrow. I'm | :26:57. | :27:01. | |
afraid it's days like that. Ten to 20 million litres of rainfall | :27:02. | :27:07. | |
expected. By the afternoon, highs of 13 or 14 degrees. It will not feel | :27:08. | :27:13. | |
particularly warm. Through tomorrow evening, eventually that rain will | :27:14. | :27:19. | |
clear its way eastwards. Behind it, some clearer skies will develop and | :27:20. | :27:21. | |
temperatures will drop to single figures. For Thursday, it's going to | :27:22. | :27:29. | |
be quite dry and pride. Feeling warm as well. Picking up a southerly | :27:30. | :27:33. | |
flow. Temperatures rising to 18 or 19 degrees. As we go into Friday, we | :27:34. | :27:40. | |
are actually going to see temperatures continue to climb, | :27:41. | :27:43. | |
because we are pulling up warm air. There is an area of low pressure | :27:44. | :27:47. | |
here which means particularly as we go into Saturday, we will see some | :27:48. | :27:53. | |
really heavy and thundery downpours. For Saturday, we have warnings out | :27:54. | :27:59. | |
about heavy and persistent rain. Over the next couple of days, | :28:00. | :28:02. | |
particularly tomorrow, lots of rain. Thursday will be dry and bright. | :28:03. | :28:08. | |
Friday, the chance of heavy showers. Really unsettled into Saturday. | :28:09. | :28:14. | |
I am looking forward to Thursday! Goodbye. Goodbye. | :28:15. | :28:25. | |
Did I die? Not yet. But it can be arranged. | :28:26. | :28:28. | |
All the lies. Does that just cost you nothing? | :28:29. | :28:31. | |
Because I'm trying to put things right. | :28:32. | :28:36. | |
Every one of us has lied. Every single one of us. | :28:37. | :28:40. |
