Hello, I am Sally Taylor, welcome to South Today. In tonight's | :00:03. | :00:08. | |
programme: An international tug of love - two | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
children and their mother are found dead in Turkey. | :00:11. | :00:13. | |
Despite the protests, the Government prepares to drop | :00:13. | :00:15. | |
Portland in the coastguard reorganisation. | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
The man behind the voice - after 25 years, the final scores will never | :00:18. | :00:28. | |
:00:28. | :00:33. | ||
be the same again. Is that 10?! | :00:33. | :00:36. | |
And puppy love - why this emotional reunion has become an internet | :00:36. | :00:46. | |
:00:46. | :00:50. | ||
sensation. We will be live with the A family in the New Forest is in | :00:50. | :00:52. | |
mourning tonight after an international tug of love ended | :00:52. | :00:58. | |
with the deaths of two young children and their mother. Yannis | :00:58. | :01:01. | |
and Mira Mellersh were taken by their mother after the family moved | :01:01. | :01:03. | |
to Germany, despite a court order granting their English father | :01:03. | :01:08. | |
custody. Justin Mellersh spent 18 months trying to trace his son and | :01:08. | :01:13. | |
daughter. But tragically, last Friday, they were found dead in a | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
Turkish seaside resort. Steve Humphrey has been following the | :01:16. | :01:22. | |
story. That Thame youngsters had been | :01:22. | :01:29. | |
found dead at, Yannis and Mira Mellersh, and they spent some of | :01:29. | :01:34. | |
their early life in Minstead in the New Forest. DMS and Mira then made | :01:34. | :01:38. | |
to Germany with their parents. After family problems, the children | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
were supposed to be in the custody of their British father, Justin | :01:41. | :01:46. | |
Mellersh. But they were taken by their mother, Elke Mellersh, who is | :01:46. | :01:51. | |
from a German, Kurdish, Turkish family. Their father recorded a | :01:51. | :01:56. | |
song and put it on the internet as part of efforts to trace them. | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
Their grandparents have also been closely involved. The brother and | :02:00. | :02:06. | |
sister were last seen near Bremen in Germany in February 2010. Last | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
Friday the bodies of the children and their mother were found in a | :02:10. | :02:15. | |
farmhouse in a Turkish seaside resort. There are resorts -- | :02:15. | :02:19. | |
reports they died of carbon monoxide poisoning. A message from | :02:19. | :02:22. | |
the family posted on Facebook says, we do not blame the mother for this | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
tragedy. It is clear she suffered a debilitating mental illness with | :02:26. | :02:32. | |
paranoid delusions. It also talks of the children's play for fun and | :02:32. | :02:39. | |
kindness to each other and others. What happens next? | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
The children's father and their grandfather have gone to Turkey, we | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
understand they want to bring the bodies back to the New Forest. | :02:47. | :02:50. | |
Meanwhile authorities here are liaising with police in Germany and | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
Turkey. Hampshire police are supporting the children's | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
grandmother at her home in the New Forest. | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
Thank you. "Mummy is in heaven," the words of | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
the three-year-old son of a Surrey police officer whose funeral took | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
place today. Detective Constable Heather Cooper died from a head | :03:04. | :03:08. | |
injury and a stab wound to her throat last month. Her partner, | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
Peter Foster, who is 35 and a former detective, has been charged | :03:11. | :03:14. | |
with murder. Her son and three- month-old baby daughter were at the | :03:14. | :03:20. | |
service in York Minster. BBC South Today has learnt that | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
campaigners in Dorset have failed in their efforts to save Portland | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
coastguard station. The Government is expected to announce the future | :03:27. | :03:31. | |
of the coastguard service this week. Ministers were forced into a re- | :03:31. | :03:33. | |
think following a public outcry against their original plans to | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
close most coastguard stations around the country. Our transport | :03:37. | :03:45. | |
correspondent Paul Clifton is here. What has changed? Quite a lot has | :03:45. | :03:50. | |
changed. The original plan was to cut the number of coastguard | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
stations from 18 to eight and of those only three would work 24 | :03:53. | :03:56. | |
hours a day. One in five coastguards would lose their jobs, | :03:56. | :04:01. | |
more than 200 people. But the maritime community united in | :04:01. | :04:07. | |
opposition. Even a committee of MPs called it short-sighted, seriously | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
flawed and putting safety in jeopardy. That forced the | :04:10. | :04:14. | |
government to think again and tomorrow it is expected to tell MPs | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
that the plans have been watered down considerably. Do we know the | :04:18. | :04:23. | |
detail? Officially, no. Unofficially, yes. I have spoken to | :04:23. | :04:28. | |
a number of postcards today. Paul Smart -- Portsmouth coastguard was | :04:28. | :04:32. | |
slated for closure, that has not changed, it will close in the next | :04:32. | :04:36. | |
three years with the loss of about 30 pairs. Lee-on-Solent will close, | :04:36. | :04:42. | |
too, but be replaced with a new, larger, national control centre. | :04:42. | :04:48. | |
The head office in Southampton will see savings, too. Only 142 jobs, I | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
believe, will now bears. The majority of coastguard stations | :04:51. | :04:55. | |
will stay open and instead of being day lead hours only, they will be | :04:55. | :05:00. | |
24 hours a day. Some will say it is a climbdown by the government? | :05:00. | :05:05. | |
is, but almost everyone was against such sweeping cuts. There will | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
still be fewer stations would view the staff covering larger areas, | :05:09. | :05:12. | |
but with better technology, but I think this is a compromise that | :05:12. | :05:15. | |
more people will be more willing to accept. | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
Thank you. Hovertravel services between | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
Portsmouth and Ryde on the Isle of Wight have started running again | :05:20. | :05:22. | |
following a weekend of disruption. Services were stopped indefinitely | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
by maritime safety inspectors on Friday evening. It followed an | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
incident where part of a propeller came off one of the three craft. | :05:29. | :05:32. | |
Hovertravel says it is currently running a temporary timetable using | :05:32. | :05:36. | |
one hovercraft. There are growing concerns about a | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
shortage of rainfall in the region. South East Water has already warned | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
it may have to impose restrictions in some areas next year. Now, a | :05:44. | :05:46. | |
nine-mile section of the Kennett and Avon Canal around Hungerford | :05:46. | :05:49. | |
has been shut because groundwater, which helps top up the waterway, | :05:49. | :05:56. | |
has fallen to its lowest level in almost a century. Boat owners could | :05:56. | :06:04. | |
be stuck for months. Sarah Holmes reports. | :06:04. | :06:10. | |
Literally locked. This stretch of water away may not be open until | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
next year. 39 locks have been shut in total to stop the water draining | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
away. Boat owners are well and truly stranded. We were always | :06:18. | :06:25. | |
going to have a problem with water, but we normally rely on the water | :06:25. | :06:30. | |
to feed the lower levels of the canal, but there is no water coming | :06:30. | :06:33. | |
in so we have a problem and British Waterways are managing it and we | :06:33. | :06:38. | |
have got to live with it. If we do not get any rain, heavy rain, in | :06:38. | :06:42. | |
the next couple of months, I think we are here for a long spell. | :06:42. | :06:46. | |
less than half the average rainfall expected for October and an | :06:46. | :06:49. | |
unusually dry spring as well, British Waterways say water levels | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
in the canals have been running low for a while. We have tried to keep | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
the water going for as long as we could, we got through the boating | :06:57. | :07:01. | |
season, through the Southern, -- through the summer. We are now at | :07:01. | :07:07. | |
the bottom of the barrel. While water shortages are fairly normal, | :07:07. | :07:12. | |
this year has been worse. This is unusual in terms of how extreme it. | :07:12. | :07:16. | |
It has been an -- it has been as low as this just a few times in the | :07:16. | :07:21. | |
last 100 years. British Waterways says it will support those who are | :07:21. | :07:24. | |
stranded as best it can enter the cloud and reopen, although no one | :07:24. | :07:32. | |
knows when that will be. -- as best it can until the canal can reopen. | :07:32. | :07:35. | |
The BBC has obtained a copy of a confidential report to Bournemouth | :07:35. | :07:38. | |
Council which led to their chief accountant being suspended and | :07:38. | :07:40. | |
escorted from the building by security staff. In it, Stephen | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
Parker cast doubt on the legality of part of a contract with an | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
outside company to run some council services. Unions are now demanding | :07:46. | :07:49. | |
he be treated as a whistleblower. Our political editor Peter Henley | :07:49. | :07:57. | |
is with me. This sounds like explosive stuff. | :07:57. | :08:03. | |
Yes, some see this man, Stephen Parker, as a hero. Others say he is | :08:03. | :08:11. | |
part of the problem by standing in the way of efficiency savings. But | :08:11. | :08:14. | |
seeing this confidential report, you can see why it so clearly | :08:14. | :08:17. | |
divided opinion. He says: "As chief accountant, I have expressed | :08:17. | :08:19. | |
serious doubts about the value for money and deliverability of the | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
contract". He questions the legality of what he calls a soft | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
loan to Mouchel, and the company's financial security. You could argue | :08:25. | :08:28. | |
he has got an interest in things not changing at Bournemouth Council, | :08:28. | :08:30. | |
but the unions say that people in positions of financial | :08:30. | :08:33. | |
responsibility like this should be respected. | :08:34. | :08:39. | |
I believe that, if people have got concerns, then they follow the | :08:39. | :08:42. | |
professional ethics, which I believe is the case, then they | :08:42. | :08:44. | |
should be allowed to voice their concerns. | :08:44. | :08:48. | |
This contract with Mouchel has been in place for a year, but from next | :08:48. | :08:51. | |
month it is being extended? Yes. The deal will in total be | :08:51. | :08:57. | |
worth �300 million. That is over 10 years. Lots of departments, IT, | :08:57. | :09:02. | |
facilities management, finance, a human-resources, providing services | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
for the council. But they are moving on to try to work with other | :09:05. | :09:10. | |
councils, and they say that could cut the budget by 40% and create | :09:10. | :09:14. | |
600 jobs. But when I spoke to the deputy leader of the council, | :09:14. | :09:17. | |
although he said they have made millions of pounds of savings, he | :09:17. | :09:21. | |
admitted after a year they have only created 20 jobs. | :09:22. | :09:26. | |
It is the early period when there is some stability over it, further | :09:26. | :09:30. | |
investment required, but depending on which said this it is and the | :09:30. | :09:33. | |
level of investment, those savings start to come through fairly | :09:33. | :09:36. | |
solidly, fairly early, and they then increase quite dramatically | :09:36. | :09:40. | |
over time. 12 months in, do you have an idea whether the targets | :09:41. | :09:46. | |
will be met? Yes, we have met the targets. I said a moment ago that | :09:46. | :09:51. | |
we saved over �32 million since we took office in 2007 and about 12 | :09:51. | :09:54. | |
million of that is in the current financial year. | :09:54. | :09:58. | |
The other problem is that Mouchel are carrying a great deal of debt | :09:58. | :10:03. | |
and there are rumours of a takeover. I'm not convinced that a company in | :10:03. | :10:08. | |
such financial dire straits will offer our staff, our hard-working, | :10:08. | :10:13. | |
loyal staff, the opportunity to further their careers. | :10:13. | :10:16. | |
We will see a public sector pension strike at the end of the month and | :10:16. | :10:19. | |
all of this, whether for better or for worse, is a sign that there is | :10:19. | :10:28. | |
a great deal of change at the moment in our local authorities. | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
A collision between a police car and another car near Chichester has | :10:31. | :10:33. | |
left a 17-year-old girl with serious injuries. It happened at | :10:33. | :10:36. | |
Fishbourne on Saturday evening, as the police vehicle responded to an | :10:36. | :10:38. | |
emergency call. The girl was driving the other car. Meanwhile | :10:39. | :10:41. | |
last night in Portsmouth, a woman pedestrian was injured in Eastern | :10:41. | :10:44. | |
Road when she was hit by a police car called to a burglary. | :10:45. | :10:48. | |
A dog has been found dead after being tied to a car and dragged | :10:48. | :10:50. | |
along a dual carriageway. Police believe it was done deliberately | :10:51. | :10:53. | |
and are appealing for witnesses. A black Porsche Carrera was seen | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
being driven with a dog tied to the back at Devil's Dyke outside | :10:57. | :11:00. | |
Brighton at 10pm last night. Soon after, the car was spotted on the | :11:00. | :11:02. | |
A27 near the Southwick Tunnel still dragging the dog along. Police | :11:03. | :11:05. | |
found the body of the Beagle-Collie cross in a lay-by. | :11:05. | :11:08. | |
Medical experts have told an inquest that the death of 32-year- | :11:08. | :11:10. | |
old Sharon McLaughlin in police custody could not have been | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
predicted. The mother of one was found unconscious in her cell in | :11:13. | :11:16. | |
Worthing after having earlier been sick. The hearing was told she | :11:16. | :11:20. | |
would not have been saved if she had been seen by a doctor. Danielle | :11:20. | :11:30. | |
:11:30. | :11:30. | ||
Sharon McLoughlin seen in better times. At the end of her life she | :11:30. | :11:34. | |
was a heroin addict and using crack cocaine. After 22 hours in custody | :11:34. | :11:37. | |
in Worthing, she was found unconscious and could not be | :11:37. | :11:43. | |
resuscitated. The jury heard the post-mortem was inconclusive. Three | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
medical experts agreed that Sharon McLaughlan's heart suddenly stopped | :11:46. | :11:52. | |
beating but they cannot deafen a drugs overdose has been ruled out, | :11:52. | :11:56. | |
but her chronic drug abuse could be a contributory factor. The inquest | :11:56. | :12:01. | |
has already had that custody assistant Andrew who was checking | :12:01. | :12:06. | |
on Sharon did not notice she had been sick in the south. Another did, | :12:06. | :12:11. | |
and he knew that she felt freezing, but did not tell his supervisors. | :12:11. | :12:15. | |
The medical experts were asked about the symptoms today. Two of | :12:15. | :12:19. | |
the experts told the jury that Sharon McLaughlin's symptoms did | :12:19. | :12:23. | |
not present cause for concern and the outcome of her death could not | :12:23. | :12:28. | |
have been predicted. Legal representatives for her family said | :12:28. | :12:33. | |
if a nurse or a doctor had have been called in, then further | :12:33. | :12:38. | |
investigation could have taken blaze. The inquest continues. | :12:38. | :12:41. | |
More than 2,000 people have applied for just 140 temporary Christmas | :12:41. | :12:45. | |
jobs at the John Lewis store in Reading. The temps will help the | :12:46. | :12:48. | |
Broad Street department store open for longer hours in the run-up to | :12:49. | :12:52. | |

find out why this street dog from Dubai has become an overnight | :13:12. | :13:21. | |
internet sensation. Tonight's Inside Out investigates a | :13:21. | :13:26. | |
company that claims to help people avoid Clare home fees. The | :13:26. | :13:31. | |
Universal Group is run by a Steve Long. It charges about �3,000 for | :13:31. | :13:36. | |
setting up a trust to protect personal assets against care | :13:36. | :13:40. | |
charges. The BBC investigation has found there is no guarantee it will | :13:40. | :13:47. | |
work. The company says the trust has a 100% track record. | :13:47. | :13:52. | |
She wants to make sure Peter's inheritance... A the man behind the | :13:52. | :13:57. | |
group is Steve Long. In his seminars, he makes claims that made | :13:57. | :14:01. | |
him and his company sound very well connected her and important. | :14:01. | :14:07. | |
accurate are his claims about his products? Our undercover reporter | :14:07. | :14:17. | |
:14:17. | :14:17. | ||
asked him if someone could use his company to avoid care fees? If he | :14:17. | :14:21. | |
is not receiving care, it is straight forward. Local authority | :14:21. | :14:26. | |
will look at the reasons the trust was created. If they feel it was | :14:26. | :14:31. | |
done for the purpose of putting the asset beyond their reach, then they | :14:31. | :14:36. | |
could taking into account in an assessment and treat the person as | :14:36. | :14:41. | |
if they did not belong to the asset. We wrote to have Steve Long to ask | :14:41. | :14:46. | |
why he would give misleading statements. His office said | :14:46. | :14:50. | |
universal as the protection is committed to excellent customer | :14:50. | :14:55. | |
care and their fees are not excessive. But Steve Long has not | :14:55. | :15:01. | |
given specific answers to most of our questions. I have got to ask | :15:01. | :15:07. | |
you a question. Why are you selling a product when by marketing it as | :15:07. | :15:12. | |
avoiding care fees you are possibly rendering it useless? A it is not | :15:12. | :15:16. | |
the advice we have received. This is from the Government. He was | :15:16. | :15:20. | |
wrong? You're the government? when we look at the cases we have | :15:20. | :15:25. | |
dealt with, you have put me on the spot... We have been trying to get | :15:25. | :15:30. | |
in touch with you. Your office told us you were out of the country. But | :15:30. | :15:34. | |
you are here. A I am not prepared to discuss this have on a | :15:34. | :15:39. | |
television. All I can say is the trust will be used and it has a 100 | :15:39. | :15:43. | |
track-record. We have documents of local authorities accepting the | :15:43. | :15:47. | |
work of our trust. If if you are thinking of putting your property | :15:47. | :15:51. | |
into a trust to avoid care fees, remember they are not suitable for | :15:51. | :15:56. | |
everyone and they may not work. You can see more on that story on | :15:56. | :16:01. | |
Inside Out at 7:30pm on BBC One. A memorial service for Norrie | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
Woodhall, the last living link to the author Thomas Hardy, took place | :16:05. | :16:11. | |
in Dorchester today. In her final years, Norrie was instrumental in | :16:11. | :16:16. | |

Tess of the D'Urbervilles by the author himself when she was 18 | :16:24. | :16:30. | |
years old. The point about her, really, was the order she grew, the | :16:30. | :16:35. | |
more this responsibility of representing Hardy took over her | :16:35. | :16:39. | |
life. The older she got, the fewer there were who had ever known a. By | :16:39. | :16:48. | |

Oxford United 1. Tim Gudgin will be joining as a | :17:36. | :17:45. | |
moment. Did it bring back memories of Saturday? Yes, it did. Anything | :17:45. | :17:54. | |
past that and I would have forgotten!. Saints go marching on | :17:54. | :18:00. | |
in the Championship. They had a 49th minute lead against Brighton. | :18:00. | :18:05. | |
Albion's day went from bad to worse when this challenge was not judged | :18:05. | :18:13. | |
worthy of a penalty by the referee. The manager's protests got him sent | :18:13. | :18:17. | |
off. Lambert dispatched that penalty and another one later to | :18:17. | :18:23. | |
complete Saints' 4th league -- 4th win in a row. I did not think that | :18:24. | :18:30. | |
merited a penalty. Is that your view? It was outside. You do not | :18:30. | :18:36. | |
need to think. Michael Appleton's first game as manager of Portsmouth | :18:36. | :18:42. | |
could not inspire them to victory at Watford. This cracking the | :18:42. | :18:49. | |
volley gave the home side a 2-0 win. We did not do enough graft today. | :18:49. | :18:54. | |
We did not compete. We paid the price for it. There is a belter of | :18:54. | :18:59. | |
a goal from Cardiff after just two minutes sent a Reading on the way | :18:59. | :19:06. | |
to a rare home defeat. They scored late on but the visitors won 2-1. | :19:06. | :19:09. | |
Mark Hughes book was first have goal gave Bournemouth three | :19:09. | :19:17. | |
valuable away points at Wycombe. In League Two, Scott Davies scored the | :19:17. | :19:22. | |
best goal of the game at Aldershot. It was scant consolation as the | :19:22. | :19:27. | |
visitors won 2-1. Crawley Town stay second in League Two after beating | :19:27. | :19:34. | |
or Oxford United. There was a defensive mixed up which gave them | :19:34. | :19:39. | |
the chance to pull a goal back. Further goals and this free-kick | :19:39. | :19:47. | |
kept Crawley on the heels of the leaders. | :19:47. | :19:52. | |
The man with a honey tones are you here on a Saturday is here, Tim | :19:52. | :19:57. | |
Gudgin. He retired at the weekend. Was this a sad day? Yes. Mixed | :19:57. | :20:02. | |
emotions, after having done it for so long. 16 years. Yes, that is | :20:02. | :20:09. | |
correct. People came I had not seen for ages. We had a toast afterwards. | :20:09. | :20:17. | |
BBC Sport is, import, gone to Manchester. Why did you not going? | :20:17. | :20:27. | |
:20:27. | :20:29. | ||
-- in part. It is quite far. It is 80 miles. I cannot imagine going. | :20:29. | :20:36. | |
People say, but used to come from the Isle of Man. But I say, that | :20:36. | :20:44. | |
was 40 years ago. I am not as young Mao! It would not have worked. -- | :20:44. | :20:49. | |
young that now. Is there a knack to the way you read the classified | :20:49. | :20:54. | |
results? Most of us would read a list but there is something in your | :20:54. | :20:59. | |
voice. He is almost a sing-song. Not to sing-song, I hope. A I mean | :20:59. | :21:06. | |
that in a flattering way. I learnt it from John Webster when I first | :21:06. | :21:16. | |
joined BBC domestic radio. He was doing the results. You have that | :21:16. | :21:26. | |
:21:26. | :21:26. | ||
lovely recognisable voice. Any tongue twisters. Did you get any? | :21:26. | :21:31. | |
Len Martin had that one. What went you do with your Saturday | :21:31. | :21:37. | |
afternoons are now? I am not sure. I will be in Australia. When I come | :21:37. | :21:42. | |
back, I will be watching and listening. I'd do the talking | :21:42. | :21:52. | |
:21:52. | :21:54. | ||
newspaper, too. We will miss you, Tim. I will miss you. Thank you. | :21:54. | :21:58. | |
all know the old saying a dog is for life not just for Christmas but | :21:58. | :22:03. | |
one family has gone the extra mile in keeping a promise. If they have | :22:03. | :22:07. | |
gone up 3,000 miles, in fact. The tale involves a bit of luck and a | :22:07. | :22:14. | |
lot of will power. It might seem like an ordinary | :22:14. | :22:18. | |
household evening at the Smiths but this dog has become an overnight | :22:18. | :22:23. | |
celebrity. Holly was a street dog in Dubai. She was adopted by the | :22:23. | :22:27. | |
Smith family. When they came back to England at short notice they | :22:27. | :22:31. | |
have to leave her. Alyssa thought she would never see her again. | :22:31. | :22:35. | |
Little did she know, her mum and dad were working hard to bring the | :22:36. | :22:40. | |
dog back to England. At the moment the pair were reunited has become a | :22:40. | :22:48. | |
hit on the internet. There is someone in the lounge for | :22:48. | :22:58. | |
:22:58. | :23:01. | ||
you. Why do you have a camera? Is that Holly? Oh, my God. Is that | :23:01. | :23:11. | |
:23:11. | :23:25. | ||
I can't believe this is happening. Thank you so much. More than 25,000 | :23:25. | :23:30. | |
people have watched that moment and I am sure it is one you will never | :23:30. | :23:37. | |
forget. What makes Holly so special? She was the only one when | :23:37. | :23:42. | |
we first got her to stand up out of all the other dogs. I would spend | :23:43. | :23:48. | |
every moment with her. She makes my life happy. It was purely by chance | :23:48. | :23:54. | |
he found her again? I was bored one night and looking at the internet | :23:54. | :23:59. | |
and I looked on the old sides and there she was. We ticket from there. | :23:59. | :24:03. | |
Your daughter's reaction was priceless. All this came at a cost? | :24:03. | :24:09. | |
He was very expensive to bring her a cost -- across. We had to | :24:09. | :24:13. | |
organise bets at either side. probably the most expensive dog in | :24:13. | :24:19. | |
the village of for this family, she is worth it. A very happy family | :24:19. | :24:29. | |
:24:29. | :24:33. | ||
and a very happy dog. What a great story. | :24:33. | :24:39. | |
Alison Saunders captured the theme of the day, damp and gloomy at | :24:39. | :24:42. | |
Shoreham. A typical November day. Here is something you do not often | :24:42. | :24:45. | |
see at this time of year - primroses, spotted by Colin Withers | :24:45. | :24:53. | |
at Shanklin on the Isle of Wight. It has been on the grey side today. | :24:53. | :24:57. | |
We have had some pretty heavy bursts of rain. There are a few | :24:57. | :25:03. | |
more in store for this evening, too. Of more concern is the fog. We have | :25:03. | :25:07. | |
got a yellow warning in place from the Met Office. That is for some | :25:07. | :25:16. | |
dense patches of fog, particularly for the east of our region. Further | :25:16. | :25:20. | |
west, we have this band of rain which is gently nudging into our | :25:20. | :25:26. | |
region. Some outbreaks of patchy rain. We will see temperatures | :25:26. | :25:32. | |
holding at seven degrees. For a bit of a grey, murky start for the day | :25:32. | :25:38. | |
tomorrow. Some of the fog could linger. In particular, the band of | :25:38. | :25:42. | |
rain gradually tracks eastwards. As it does that, it will ease. We will | :25:42. | :25:47. | |
start to see some patchy, light rain instead of heavier bursts. | :25:47. | :25:51. | |
Temperature-wise, we are looking at heights of 15 degrees. That is | :25:52. | :25:55. | |
still four degrees above average for the time of year. Looking ahead | :25:55. | :25:59. | |
to tomorrow night, that front continues on its journey eastwards. | :25:59. | :26:05. | |
It will clear to the east. The East will keep some cloud. Elsewhere, we | :26:05. | :26:10. | |
will see clear skies. Temperatures will dip to three degrees for our | :26:10. | :26:17. | |
cities. Cooler in the countryside. For the rest of the week, not doing | :26:17. | :26:21. | |
too badly. The Northern have of the UK as the trouble some weather. | :26:22. | :26:26. | |
Further south, there is low pressure. Some good sunny spells | :26:26. | :26:32. | |
through the day on Wednesday. It was a dry for most of us and a very | :26:32. | :26:36. |
