In tonight's programme: so it's goodbye from me. | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
What's the key to getting people on board? | :00:09. | :00:10. | |
How bus passenger numbers have risen in the Thames Valley, | :00:11. | :00:12. | |
Also, nothing left to cut in their schools - | :00:13. | :00:15. | |
the teachers warning some lessons may have to go | :00:16. | :00:17. | |
When Rodney Nat. E, D Shakur with the love in time for Valentine's | :00:18. | :00:30. | |
Day. -- the shark looking for love. The number of people | :00:31. | :00:40. | |
using bus services in Oxford, Reading and Milton Keynes has grown | :00:41. | :00:43. | |
in the last six years - despite an overall | :00:44. | :00:46. | |
decline nationally. That's according to a new report | :00:47. | :00:47. | |
by public transpor It found, in Oxford, | :00:48. | :00:49. | |
bus use increased by 12%. In Reading, the number | :00:50. | :00:52. | |
was even higher at 17%. The increase is partly down | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
to investment in greener buses, The hustle and bustle | :00:57. | :00:59. | |
of Oxford's bus network. One in five of us and now uses | :01:00. | :01:08. | |
the bus to get to work in I get the bus, because | :01:09. | :01:11. | |
it's a damn good bus And what do you like | :01:12. | :01:17. | |
about getting the bus? If I could drive and park | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
into Oxford, I would be much happier with that, | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
but I won't pay parking Somebody drives you there rather | :01:25. | :01:26. | |
than you having to walk and its dry if it's | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
raining and that's it. And if it's busy now, | :01:30. | :01:32. | |
it's set to get even busier. Oxford is one of the | :01:33. | :01:34. | |
fastest-growing cities You've got two very good operators | :01:35. | :01:36. | |
that compete against each other. We serve to raise | :01:37. | :01:41. | |
each other standards, because we are always watching | :01:42. | :01:42. | |
with the other one is doing. Making sure we are keeping | :01:43. | :01:45. | |
the investment going. And also, we have had the right | :01:46. | :01:47. | |
policy in place from local Government to make sure that bus | :01:48. | :01:50. | |
travel is prioritised. Oxford is not the only place | :01:51. | :02:01. | |
that is investing in Reading for instance has | :02:02. | :02:04. | |
the third highest level of bus passengers per | :02:05. | :02:10. | |
head outside of London. Even Milton Keynes, | :02:11. | :02:12. | |
a town traditionally designed for the car | :02:13. | :02:14. | |
is transforming it. Last year it received Government | :02:15. | :02:16. | |
funding to bring in more electric In Oxford, there are plans for extra | :02:17. | :02:19. | |
park and ride sites, bus priority on the roads, and even | :02:20. | :02:23. | |
a zero emission central zone. But rural areas outside | :02:24. | :02:25. | |
the city centre Last year, transport bosses ended | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
all bus subsidies in And what about people | :02:30. | :02:32. | |
who can't catch the bus? Well, I do accept | :02:33. | :02:41. | |
that at inconvenient hours, like early morning and late | :02:42. | :02:43. | |
evening, the bus service is less than it is during | :02:44. | :02:46. | |
the middle of the day, but we do try to encourage | :02:47. | :02:48. | |
the bus operators to actually put | :02:49. | :02:50. | |
on services at those times. The challenge for | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
the council, it seems, is balancing the pressures to be | :02:55. | :02:56. | |
greener with the service that is both reliable and | :02:57. | :02:59. | |
practical for everyone. Next tonight, headteachers | :03:00. | :03:11. | |
in Oxfordshire say they're running They're now warning the number | :03:12. | :03:13. | |
of lessons could be reduced Nearly half of the county's schools | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
are due to lose money under a planned shake up | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
of education funding. All 35 secondary schools | :03:22. | :03:22. | |
in Oxfordshire have now Our political reporter | :03:23. | :03:24. | |
Bethan Phillips has the story. With its new funding formula, | :03:25. | :03:35. | |
the Government promised to tackle And as a county that's been | :03:36. | :03:37. | |
poorly funded in the past, hopes were raised that Oxfordshire | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
would be a big winner. But critics have described | :03:42. | :03:43. | |
the reality as horrendous, with nearly half of schools | :03:44. | :03:45. | |
in the county actually facing a budget reduction | :03:46. | :03:47. | |
if the change goes ahead. Headteachers say they're simply | :03:48. | :03:49. | |
running out of things to cut. We are absolutely at the bottom now | :03:50. | :04:03. | |
and there is nowhere else to cut without seriously damaging | :04:04. | :04:09. | |
provisions. Reasonable sized classes, the 25 hour week curriculum | :04:10. | :04:13. | |
offer, those are now the sorts of things that are under threat because | :04:14. | :04:16. | |
Even schools set to gain under the new system say overall | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
Analysis from the National Audit Office says rising pupil numbers | :04:21. | :04:23. | |
will mean schools generally see their budgets shrink by eight% | :04:24. | :04:26. | |
Headteachers in Oxfordshire claim the government's new formula | :04:27. | :04:35. | |
will particularly hit the core funding they get for each child. | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
They say they're going to lose more than ?400 for every 11 | :04:39. | :04:41. | |
A letter's been sent to MPs, warning them about the problem - | :04:42. | :04:44. | |
some have already promised to take the issue further. | :04:45. | :04:50. | |
Well, it is important to bear in mind that an MP I can bring pressure | :04:51. | :04:56. | |
on Government to make sure that the funding is fair and it is precisely | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
what I'm doing and what I should be doing Monday week when a CD | :05:01. | :05:02. | |
secretary of the two. The Government insists | :05:03. | :05:05. | |
the new system will mean an end to the historical postcode lottery | :05:06. | :05:07. | |
in school funding. It says overall, funding | :05:08. | :05:09. | |
for Oxfordshire's schools A new centre to help | :05:10. | :05:11. | |
women and girls affected by female genital mutilation | :05:12. | :05:15. | |
is going to open in Reading. It'll be the first | :05:16. | :05:17. | |
of its kind in Berkshire. The Reading Rose Centre | :05:18. | :05:19. | |
will offer support A similar service is already | :05:20. | :05:21. | |
available in Oxford. New figures suggest a case of FGM | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
is either discovered or treated This thing we can start together | :05:25. | :05:27. | |
is to give them education and for them to learn and know | :05:28. | :05:36. | |
what is FGM and the consequences coming | :05:37. | :05:39. | |
after and how it affects your life. A new Oxford Brookes University | :05:40. | :05:51. | |
campus has officially opened Students have been | :05:52. | :05:53. | |
using new facilities at the Delta Business Park | :05:54. | :05:55. | |
site since last summer, The campus offers adult nursing | :05:56. | :05:57. | |
courses, as well as other health The building is named | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
after Joel Joffe - the former human rights | :06:02. | :06:04. | |
lawyer from Swindon. It was a mixture of pride | :06:05. | :06:06. | |
and feeling privileged, but rather embarrassed, because I'm | :06:07. | :06:08. | |
just an ordinary person. I consider myself rather | :06:09. | :06:10. | |
average and so I was I think it's really | :06:11. | :06:12. | |
important that we play our part in training | :06:13. | :06:15. | |
health care workers. A lot of the adult nurses | :06:16. | :06:17. | |
and the ODP students that will train here will of course end | :06:18. | :06:20. | |
up working locally in Swindon and Wiltshire and there is a great | :06:21. | :06:23. | |
demand for it in nursing at the He's performed more | :06:24. | :06:26. | |
than 11,000 heart operations Professor Steve Westaby, | :06:27. | :06:51. | |
who's recently retired from the John Radcliffe Hospital | :06:52. | :06:53. | |
in Oxford, is one of the most Now he's written a book | :06:54. | :06:56. | |
about his career and the patient's whose lives | :06:57. | :07:00. | |
he fought to save. I spoke to him earlier | :07:01. | :07:02. | |
and he told me what being Not glamorous, it's gory, | :07:03. | :07:04. | |
and working like a mechanic. It is saws and sharp | :07:05. | :07:08. | |
instruments, but we do a lot You save a lot of lives, | :07:09. | :07:10. | |
we make a lot of patients feel very much better and it's a very | :07:11. | :07:14. | |
satisfactory job to do. Your book is called | :07:15. | :07:17. | |
Fragile Lives, how does it feel Because a lot of the people you're | :07:18. | :07:19. | |
trying to save are very I've had very many very high risk | :07:20. | :07:27. | |
patients in my career and of course, it's always a privilege to operate | :07:28. | :07:34. | |
on s patient and save a life. It's important not | :07:35. | :07:37. | |
to get involved with that patient emotionally | :07:38. | :07:39. | |
before you do save their lives, because some | :07:40. | :07:40. | |
of You were the first | :07:41. | :07:42. | |
surgeon to fit a patient with a new type of artificial | :07:43. | :07:53. | |
heart, back in the 2000. How high risk did it | :07:54. | :07:56. | |
feel to do that? Well, when Peter Houghton | :07:57. | :07:58. | |
walked into my office, I He was within weeks of dying and had | :07:59. | :08:00. | |
been turned down for transplantation The first time he was too well | :08:01. | :08:05. | |
and the second time, So, he had given up | :08:06. | :08:08. | |
on life and I had this small device, the size | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
of my thumb, called the Jarvik 2000 | :08:13. | :08:28. | |
implanted it into him. Instead of living three | :08:29. | :08:31. | |
or four more weeks of And then died of something | :08:32. | :08:33. | |
completely different. Out of all the 11,000 operations | :08:34. | :08:38. | |
you've done, does one standout for you because it was | :08:39. | :08:40. | |
either very, very difficult or because you made an emotional | :08:41. | :08:43. | |
connection with that patient? I used to love | :08:44. | :08:45. | |
operating on babies and children and there was one case that | :08:46. | :08:47. | |
came so close tonight getting through that you could | :08:48. | :08:50. | |
hardly believe it. I was in a hotel in Sydney having | :08:51. | :08:52. | |
just gone to bed after literally to a baby | :08:53. | :09:09. | |
who was dying from heart failure | :09:10. | :09:10. | |
at the age of five months. And that they be had been having | :09:11. | :09:13. | |
heart attacks at that age, because her main coronary | :09:14. | :09:15. | |
artery came off the artery to I designed a new operation | :09:16. | :09:18. | |
for the problem, because existing operations | :09:19. | :09:27. | |
weren't very satisfactory. Did that operation | :09:28. | :09:29. | |
with the film cameras running and then couldn't | :09:30. | :09:30. | |
get her off the bypass machine. And after two hours | :09:31. | :09:33. | |
of struggling, and a very depressed team in the operating | :09:34. | :09:35. | |
theatre, I went out to tell the parents that I thought | :09:36. | :09:38. | |
the baby had gone, had died. And there was such a miserable | :09:39. | :09:46. | |
response from the mother - you can imagine telling a mother | :09:47. | :09:56. | |
she's going to lose a baby - that I turned my heels and went back | :09:57. | :09:59. | |
into the operating theatre and did something absolutely ridiculous, | :10:00. | :10:03. | |
chopped a third of the circumference of the heart out to make | :10:04. | :10:05. | |
it smaller and deputy stitch in the valve | :10:06. | :10:07. | |
to Cut a long story short, | :10:08. | :10:09. | |
she survived and is now 18. Blenheim Palace has been | :10:10. | :10:12. | |
given charity status. It means the 18th | :10:13. | :10:20. | |
century stately home, which was the birth place | :10:21. | :10:22. | |
of Sir Winston Churchill, will be able to claim back income | :10:23. | :10:24. | |
tax on donations The extra cash means the Oxfordshire | :10:25. | :10:27. | |
estate will benefit from more It's well known that dairy farmers | :10:28. | :10:30. | |
across our region have been struggling for years to make | :10:31. | :10:37. | |
a living from milk - with supermarkets continuing | :10:38. | :10:39. | |
to sell at lower prices. But one young couple | :10:40. | :10:41. | |
in Buckinghamshire are now selling raw milk straight from their cows, | :10:42. | :10:43. | |
as way of bucking the trend. 6 months ago dairy farmers Jim | :10:44. | :10:46. | |
and Harriet were watching an episode They wasted no time in starting | :10:47. | :10:54. | |
their own venture right here from their shack, | :10:55. | :11:00. | |
at North Hill Farm Customers can now buy raw milk | :11:01. | :11:02. | |
from this vending machine supplied Pop the milk into the tank. But the | :11:03. | :11:22. | |
money into the machine and then press the one litre button. Then the | :11:23. | :11:27. | |
Raw Milk tastes richer and creamier than the stuff you get in the shops, | :11:28. | :11:32. | |
but the crucial difference is it's unpasteurised - | :11:33. | :11:34. | |
meaning it hasn't been heated and likely homogenised to kill | :11:35. | :11:36. | |
harmful bacteria, such as E coli. | :11:37. | :11:42. | |
Current laugher England says that raw milk must be from animals that | :11:43. | :11:52. | |
are healthy, a character that is to bear to lose this free and sold | :11:53. | :11:58. | |
directly to the consumer. District from the cloud, fresh as you like. I | :11:59. | :12:03. | |
think a lot of people got into it and got hooked at it as such. We are | :12:04. | :12:10. | |
getting good reviews from it. -- it is straight from the Cal. | :12:11. | :12:15. | |

I did the morning shift and finish about 9am. We do the afternoon at | :12:22. | :12:29. | |
We are usually finished about 6:30pm in the afternoon. | :12:30. | :12:32. | |

The line up for this summer's Cornbury music festival has | :12:38. | :12:39. | |
It includes Bryan Adams, The Kaiser Chiefs, Sophie Ellis | :12:40. | :12:43. | |
The festival is on the Great Tew Estate near Chipping Norton in July. | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
It's now in its 13th year, but this will be the last. | :12:48. | :12:52. | |
I'll have the headlines at 8pm and a full bulletin at 10:30pm. | :12:53. | :12:57. | |

After yesterday's political row over leaked texts Government ministers | :13:24. | :13:31. | |
have been insisting that Surrey County Council has not been | :13:32. | :13:33. | |
given a special deal to keep council tax low. | :13:34. | :13:36. | |
However, under questioning by Labour, The Leader of the House | :13:37. | :13:39. | |
of Commons did admit Surrey has asked to join a pilot scheme | :13:40. | :13:43. | |
to retain business rates a year earlier than other councils. | :13:44. | :13:47. | |
If there is no special deal for Surrey, why did | :13:48. | :13:50. | |
the Prime Minister simply not confirm this? | :13:51. | :13:53. | |
I, and other honourable members, want a memorandum of understanding | :13:54. | :13:55. | |
to secure our libraries and social care. | :13:56. | :13:59. | |
Surrey County Council has asked if it can participate in one | :14:00. | :14:06. | |
of the pilot project is for the proposed 100% | :14:07. | :14:10. | |
As any other local council will be free to apply, there is no | :14:11. | :14:17. | |
I'm sure we'll be hearing more of that in future. Now, all the sport. | :14:18. | :14:36. | |
We are going to hear from the chairman of Bournemouth. Is he | :14:37. | :14:39. | |
despondent at the moment given the poor recent run. Far from it. It has | :14:40. | :14:47. | |
been a tricky spell. They have had injuries, suspensions, didn't manage | :14:48. | :14:53. | |
to make signings but they are just looking over their shoulder. | :14:54. | :14:55. | |
It's probably the most trying spell of the fledgling Premier League | :14:56. | :14:58. | |
life of AFC Bournemouth, and their manager Eddie Howe. | :14:59. | :15:00. | |
Slipping down the table, the Cherries are battling | :15:01. | :15:02. | |
A lack of new signings in January didn't exactly rouse the mood. | :15:03. | :15:06. | |
South Today has spoken exclusively to Bournemouth chairman Jeff Mostyn, | :15:07. | :15:09. | |
as the club try to get the ball rolling back in | :15:10. | :15:11. | |
In a debut season in, arguably, the world's toughest league, | :15:12. | :15:21. | |
any team would be given time to settle in. | :15:22. | :15:23. | |
Second time around, with tens of millions | :15:24. | :15:34. | |
of pounds spent, the expectations at Bournemouth | :15:35. | :15:36. | |
It's been a very difficult and stressful January | :15:37. | :15:41. | |
You know, the performances have been disappointing, to say the least. | :15:42. | :15:45. | |
There's always a concern when you're not winning games. | :15:46. | :15:49. | |
It was not for the lack of trying, right up until | :15:50. | :15:52. | |
11 o'clock, on transfer deadline day, occasionally you have to spend | :15:53. | :15:57. | |
a little bit more than you budgeted for and we were always willing to do | :15:58. | :16:01. | |
that with the players that we wanted to bring in. | :16:02. | :16:03. | |
Some of the values were just crazy, as they always are | :16:04. | :16:10. | |
It's the worst market to deal in and, as Eddie has said, | :16:11. | :16:16. | |
publicly, it's in the public domain, it was probably the worst window | :16:17. | :16:19. | |
There's no sense that if you haven't got | :16:20. | :16:29. | |
recruitment department have failed in their duty. | :16:30. | :16:32. | |
We are more concerned than we were before Christmas. | :16:33. | :16:44. | |
Our goal has always been to retain our position | :16:45. | :16:46. | |
Would we be having this conversation now if we | :16:47. | :16:51. | |
haven't reached the dizzy heights of the top half of the table, | :16:52. | :16:55. | |
or would people have been satisfied that we | :16:56. | :16:57. | |
We still haven't identified an ideal sight but we have | :16:58. | :17:11. | |
identified three sites that have potential. | :17:12. | :17:13. | |
So, it's a very slow moving project but we're in talks | :17:14. | :17:16. | |
practically with the Council on a daily basis. | :17:17. | :17:28. | |
Eddie is our manager and he will continue to be our manager | :17:29. | :17:33. | |
We have an incredible relationship and you | :17:34. | :17:38. | |
will never get a person who is more level-headed. | :17:39. | :17:40. | |
He's more determined than ever ensure that this football | :17:41. | :17:44. | |
club retains its position at the very top level of football. | :17:45. | :17:56. | |

website. Now for the last of our | :18:01. | :18:04. | |
features from Bermuda. Tony Husband has been three and half | :18:05. | :18:06. | |
thousand miles across the globe to visit the island that will stage | :18:07. | :18:09. | |

that was first contested Tonight Tony finds out how | :18:16. | :18:17. | |
the island is preparing and what conditions the sailors | :18:18. | :18:22. | |
will face. Bermuda is Britain's oldest colony | :18:23. | :18:37. | |
so it is fitting that Ben Ainslie is hoping to bring the Americas cup | :18:38. | :18:50. | |
home from these waters. Bermuda is 21.6 square miles. The population is | :18:51. | :18:57. | |
60 4000. Bermuda shorts borrowed from the British military. Though | :18:58. | :19:07. | |
neither was settled in 1609. It is the proverbial picture postcard | :19:08. | :19:13. | |
island. Britain's largest naval dockyard outside the UK was once | :19:14. | :19:18. | |
here. The America's Cup is big news for traders. It's is an absolute | :19:19. | :19:25. | |
need for Bermuda, a tremendous boost to our economic benefit and it's a | :19:26. | :19:31. | |
lot of fun. Memorabilia fills the rails across the stores in the | :19:32. | :19:35. | |
island. What today they think about the America's Cup? Just the | :19:36. | :19:40. | |
publicity alone is ideal for the island. On the one hand, I'm rooting | :19:41. | :19:47. | |
for Oracle because they've been here a while and are established in the | :19:48. | :19:51. | |
community. If they were to win the cup, they would stay which would be | :19:52. | :19:55. | |
good for the island. Generally, people are for BA are and Oracle on | :19:56. | :20:05. | |
the island. It is there that the boats competing for the America's | :20:06. | :20:08. | |
Cup will race off this summer. It forms a perfect the theatre. It's a | :20:09. | :20:19. | |
tricky place to sail. It's perfect for the flat water where we will be | :20:20. | :20:24. | |
racing but it is very landlocked so the wind is shifting. Thankfully, | :20:25. | :20:29. | |
I've got a bit of experience having sailed here a lot over the years but | :20:30. | :20:35. | |
we've got Giles Scott, our tactician on the boat who decides where we | :20:36. | :20:40. | |
will go on the course and you couldn't ask for anyone more | :20:41. | :20:45. | |
talented than Giles, having come out of Rio with a gold medal. Between | :20:46. | :20:53. | |
them, they have five gold medals. To have tactical racecourses brilliant | :20:54. | :21:03. | |
for our team. For the island of Bermuda, they are hoping that | :21:04. | :21:08. | |
staging the America's Cup is a major moment in history of their tourism | :21:09. | :21:12. | |
industry. The speed and lifestyle that comes with the America's Cup | :21:13. | :21:19. | |
ratings is right in our comfort zone for who we think we are going to be | :21:20. | :21:24. | |
going forward. Transport, infrastructure, everything you can | :21:25. | :21:29. | |
imagine, it's been a very delicate strategic project to get the balance | :21:30. | :21:35. | |
right. With the team Oracle being the home team, we will be cheering | :21:36. | :21:40. | |
loudest for them but the second team we are cheering for his Land Rover | :21:41. | :21:44. | |
BA are. We are partly British and we have a special place in the heart | :21:45. | :21:51. | |
for the British. Six Nations will begin qualifying here in May. Only | :21:52. | :21:56. | |
one will be left standing by the end of June. For this island in the | :21:57. | :22:02. | |
summer the number one aim is for everyone to have fun along the way. | :22:03. | :22:07. | |
One of the figureheads of British Sailing has announced | :22:08. | :22:11. | |
that he's to retire from his role later this year. | :22:12. | :22:14. | |
John Derbyshire OBE is to stand down as the Royal Yachting | :22:15. | :22:17. | |
Derbyshire's departure will follow that of Olympic | :22:18. | :22:23. | |
manager Stephen Park, who is also leaving this spring | :22:24. | :22:25. | |
A couple of things to deal with. Tony didn't get his legs out. Note | :22:26. | :22:40. | |
Bermuda shorts. And he didn't bring as anything back. Not even a bag of | :22:41. | :22:50. | |
sweets. I gave him a cold to go with so I didn't anything to come back. | :22:51. | :22:54. | |
We're just a few days away from Valentine's day - | :22:55. | :22:56. | |
and there's one couple who'll be spending February the 14th together, | :22:57. | :22:59. | |
that's despite the fact they haven't met yet! | :23:00. | :23:02. | |
We're talking about a pair of sharks. | :23:03. | :23:09. | |
Rodney the zebra shark is being transported | :23:10. | :23:12. | |
from his current home at the Blue Reef Aquarium | :23:13. | :23:14. | |
in Southsea to a larger tank in Cheshire but luckily Rodney | :23:15. | :23:17. | |
won't be lonely when he gets there The plan is to | :23:18. | :23:20. | |
For a shark it's not easy making friends, there's always the | :23:21. | :23:35. | |
temptation to eat them. Four Rodney it's even harder. He has no mate but | :23:36. | :23:39. | |
now love is in the air, or rather the water. This lovely lady is dotty | :23:40. | :23:52. | |
and hopefully for Rodney by nature as well as name. We are giving him | :23:53. | :24:00. | |
to an aquarium and we raised her as a little baby so it was always going | :24:01. | :24:06. | |
to be the case that they would meet. We have our fingers crossed that it | :24:07. | :24:10. | |
is going to be successful. This is Rodney as a baby, strikingly | :24:11. | :24:17. | |
different markings giving this PC is name of the zebra shark. He is | :24:18. | :24:21. | |
currently getting extra rations to give him energy for the journey | :24:22. | :24:26. | |
north. He will travel up to Cheshire on Monday, in time for Valentine's | :24:27. | :24:33. | |
Day on Tuesday. He is going to stay up in Cheshire, hopefully for many | :24:34. | :24:37. | |
happy years ahead. Hopefully for this pair of sharks, it will be love | :24:38. | :24:47. | |
at first bite. A lot of expectation there. Frightening. They should be | :24:48. | :24:54. | |
more laid-back. Too much pressure. Onto the weather. Wrap up warm is | :24:55. | :25:01. | |
the answer. You will need all the layers. This wind from the east is | :25:02. | :25:07. | |
going to make it feel bitterly cold. Let's look at your lovely weather | :25:08. | :25:08. | |
pictures. Shazz Hooper captured | :25:09. | :25:12. | |
the cloudy skies over the River Frome in Wareham Nick | :25:13. | :25:13. | |
Keown photographed the cloudy skies And Sarah Dawson took this picture | :25:14. | :25:16. | |
of starling murmuration at Studland. You can see all of our pictures on | :25:17. | :25:31. | |
the Facebook page. Tonight, we expect wintry flurries or even a | :25:32. | :25:36. | |
dusting of snow. More likely for Eastern counties. Elsewhere, mainly | :25:37. | :25:43. | |
dry, Frost can't be ruled out. In towns and cities temperatures will | :25:44. | :25:49. | |
fall to freezing. So, a cold and frosty start tomorrow. Wintry | :25:50. | :25:54. | |
showers will continue. With a strengthening east to north-easterly | :25:55. | :25:58. | |
wind, further showers will roll in from the North Sea. Temperatures | :25:59. | :26:02. | |
will reach a high of four Celsius but with wind chill it will feel a | :26:03. | :26:08. | |
lot colder. Wind coming in from the north-east staying with us through | :26:09. | :26:12. | |
tomorrow night and there will be further wintry showers. More | :26:13. | :26:17. | |
frequent during the early hours of Saturday morning. More likely | :26:18. | :26:23. | |
further east. Temperatures down to freezing and possibly -2 in the | :26:24. | :26:28. | |
countryside. Saturday is another cold day with that wind chill. Still | :26:29. | :26:35. | |
the risk of wintry showers brought in on this north-easterly wind. | :26:36. | :26:40. | |
Showers will drift westward with the strengthening wind. Limiting the | :26:41. | :26:46. | |
brightness for the next few days. Possibly one or two spells tomorrow | :26:47. | :26:52. | |
afternoon. For the next few days, some wintry showers at times and it | :26:53. | :26:57. | |
will feel colder. It will be stronger than recent days, | :26:58. | :27:06. | |
temperatures starting to climb with the start of next week. Temperatures | :27:07. | :27:15. | |
made next week to rise into double figures in some places. With high | :27:16. | :27:21. | |
pressure not far away it should stay mainly settled. I love the optimism. | :27:22. | :27:33. | |
It's still very cold. Spare a thought for the headteacher sleeping | :27:34. | :27:38. | |
in a tent behind his school. We will find out tomorrow why he is doing | :27:39. | :27:43. | |
it. That's it for tomorrow. This evening bulletins later. | :27:44. | :27:55. | |
OK, everyone, have you got your bamboo sticks? | :27:56. | :28:02. | |
If you just paint what you want to paint, | :28:03. | :28:03. | |
I've turned around, my painting washes away. | :28:04. | :28:10. | |
..and take on The Big Painting Challenge. | :28:11. | :28:15. | |
Remember, you're not painting a pond. | :28:16. | :28:18. |
