The wife of a Plymouth`based Royal Marine jailed for life for dxecuting | :00:19. | :00:55. | |
an injured Afghan fighter s`ys he bitterly regrets what happened. | :00:56. | :00:58. | |
Speaking in a TV documentarx, Claire Blackman says she's hoping he wins | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
his appeal against his murddr conviction following the incident in | :01:02. | :01:03. | |
Helmand Province in 2011. Otr defence reporter Scott Bingham has | :01:04. | :01:07. | |
been following the story. These stills are taken from the | :01:08. | :01:10. | |
video footage which was at the heart of the prosecution case at Sgt | :01:11. | :01:16. | |
Alexander Blackman's court`lartial. The images sparked the investigation | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
when they were found by civhlian police on a computer after 42 | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
Commando had returned from ` six`month deployment in Afghanistan. | :01:23. | :01:29. | |
The court martial heard that Sgt Alexander known during the trial | :01:30. | :01:32. | |
only as Marine A and two colrades Marines B and C had been sent out to | :01:33. | :01:36. | |
a field near their base aftdr an insurgent had been injured hn an | :01:37. | :01:43. | |
attack. The audio of what h`ppened that day in September 2011 was later | :01:44. | :01:48. | |
released by the courts. A shot fired by Sgt Alexander can clearlx be | :01:49. | :01:50. | |
heard. He then said this. The case was the first time British | :01:51. | :02:12. | |
forces had been put on trial for murder during the 12`year c`mpaign | :02:13. | :02:17. | |
in Afghanistan. Marines B and C were cleared, Sgt Alexander was found | :02:18. | :02:20. | |
guilty of murder and sentenced to life in prison to serve a mhnimum of | :02:21. | :02:27. | |
ten years. He was also dismhssed with disgrace from the Royal | :02:28. | :02:36. | |
Marines. His wife has spoken out on this. What is she saying? | :02:37. | :02:45. | |
This case has divided the n`tion. Some condemn Sgt Blackman as a war | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
criminal, while others clail he himself is a casualty of war. His | :02:49. | :02:51. | |
wife Claire Blackman said there s been huge public support. They had | :02:52. | :02:55. | |
received 750 letters of which just two said that her husband ddserved | :02:56. | :03:03. | |
his sentence. She told the documentary makers that he bitterly | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
regrets that moment. Hindsight is a wonderful thing. There were so many | :03:08. | :03:10. | |
other factors embroiled in that decision, she said. The hardest | :03:11. | :03:13. | |
thing for me is, of course, the conviction and the sentence. They | :03:14. | :03:16. | |
are just, just awful. But epually awful is Al not being part of the | :03:17. | :03:21. | |
Royal Marines. He has since appealed against the conviction and sentence | :03:22. | :03:24. | |
three senior judges are due to hear that appeal later this month. | :03:25. | :03:30. | |

War? Next Wednesday the ninth April at 10.35 here on BBC One. | :03:34. | :03:44. | |
An inquest in Taunton has bden hearing how drivers were thrown | :03:45. | :03:47. | |
around their vehicles as if they were in a pinball machine on the | :03:48. | :03:50. | |
night when seven people lost their lives in a pile up on the M4. They | :03:51. | :03:55. | |
also spoke of hitting a blanket of fog. The organiser of a firdwork | :03:56. | :03:58. | |
display at Taunton Rugby Cltb was cleared of breaching health and | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
safety laws back in December. Now an inquest is attempting to find out | :04:02. | :04:04. | |
what happened. Scott Ellis has been at the inquest where there have been | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
some harrowing accounts of the driving conditions on the motorway | :04:09. | :04:14. | |
that night. The inquest heard today that 34 | :04:15. | :04:21. | |
vehicles collided in just 68 seconds back in November 2011. That is as | :04:22. | :04:26. | |
they were heading north on the motorway near Taunton. The police | :04:27. | :04:30. | |
investigation heard from 400 witnesses and they have all said | :04:31. | :04:34. | |
that prior to the accident visibility in the area was very | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
good, they could see the moon and the stars, but then for the drivers | :04:39. | :04:43. | |
heading north at around 8:14pm they drove into what they describe as a | :04:44. | :04:49. | |
wall of fog. They couldn't see their own head lamps, one man remdmbering | :04:50. | :04:55. | |
that he said to himself as he drove into the bank of fog where the hell | :04:56. | :05:01. | |
has the motorway gone? We c`n hear from the former police constable who | :05:02. | :05:08. | |
led the collision investigation The descriptions are consistent. That | :05:09. | :05:14. | |
they could not see anything. Like a blanket thrown over the car. It | :05:15. | :05:18. | |
seems quite literally that they could not see the end of thd car as | :05:19. | :05:23. | |
they were driving. Most of the statements said the fog did not have | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
any smell to it, but people did say they have never seen anything like | :05:28. | :05:31. | |
it before. It did leave drivers with no chance of stopping in tile, | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
indeed witnesses have said that they did not hear any squealing brakes, | :05:36. | :05:41. | |
just the crashing of cars. One driver hit three times in fhve | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
seconds says it was like his lorry had been picked up and shakdn. | :05:46. | :05:49. | |
Another said it was like behng in a pinball machine. | :05:50. | :05:57. | |
Homes and businesses in Norton Fitzwarren in Somerset were | :05:58. | :06:00. | |
evacuated this afternoon after a gas main caught fire. Everyone within a | :06:01. | :06:03. | |
100 metre radius of the gas main, which runs through the main road in | :06:04. | :06:07. | |
the village, was evacuated. The fire was put out and people have since | :06:08. | :06:12. | |
been allowed back to their homes. Detectives hunting a robber who | :06:13. | :06:15. | |
raided an antiques shop in Devon have released new CCTV foot`ge of | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
him attacking a woman as shd arrived for work. He tied her up before | :06:19. | :06:23. | |
taking thousands of pounds worth of jewellery in the raid on Banwell | :06:24. | :06:33. | |
Antiques in Honiton ten days ago. Later we are off to the Batcave the | :06:34. | :06:37. | |
greater horseshoe bat is at risk, find out why lottery money could | :06:38. | :06:40. | |
help. What a turnout, more than 1000 | :06:41. | :06:47. | |
pupils turn out to Devon's school games. | :06:48. | :06:54. | |
People affected by flooding can now get up to ?5000 to help protect | :06:55. | :06:57. | |
their properties from futurd damage. The DEFRA minister Dan Rogerson was | :06:58. | :07:00. | |
in Newlyn in West Cornwall this morning to discuss the Repahr and | :07:01. | :07:03. | |
Renew Grant scheme with villagers who are eligible to apply for the | :07:04. | :07:06. | |
money. Our reporter David Gdorge caught up with him there. | :07:07. | :07:13. | |
February 2014 will not be forgotten quickly, huge waves battered the | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
South West for the third month running. This is crashing into the | :07:18. | :07:24. | |
old bridge here and over thd road. `` the sea. This is where the | :07:25. | :07:28. | |
footage was taken. It has bden seen by more than 2 million people. The | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
wave came across the road under the lorry and a straight into those | :07:34. | :07:38. | |
shops and businesses. Spect`cular footage, but no fun if you live | :07:39. | :07:45. | |
here. We showed the video clip to the France Minister who says the new | :07:46. | :07:51. | |
scheme could help here. There are pieces of kit you can put in, boards | :07:52. | :07:59. | |
and so on, to protect the doorway. There are brick covers and nonreturn | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
valves over bathroom planning to stop water coming back in from the | :08:04. | :08:08. | |
sewers. What we are able to do is to see what may help in your property. | :08:09. | :08:13. | |
This ?5,000 could go towards restoring some of that. The nearby | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
toll was flooded, the owner describes cooking in his wellies. | :08:19. | :08:25. | |
They cannot fix all the problems. I have done the work that needs to be | :08:26. | :08:30. | |
done. I want is to be ready, I don't think it was a one`time deal, we'll | :08:31. | :08:34. | |
properly see more of them, hopefully not too many. I have done the work | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
now, so maybe it is a littld late, but that is the Government, they can | :08:39. | :08:45. | |
only react. As well as the linister and an MP, Dan Rogerson is the Prime | :08:46. | :08:51. | |
Minister's floods' envoy. Hd spent two days in Cornwall who have tried | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
to persuade him that Cornwall is a special case and needs more cash to | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
pay its ?20 million repair bill They await his response. | :09:01. | :09:08. | |
An Australian green energy company has announced that it's planning to | :09:09. | :09:11. | |
plug into Cornwall's wavehub to test its latest device. It's the fourth | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
company to sign up to the project and, as Eleanor Parkinson rdports, | :09:16. | :09:18. | |
those running the hub say it could be producing electricity | :09:19. | :09:21. | |
commercially by next year. The Wave Hub has been descrhbed as a | :09:22. | :09:25. | |
giant socket in the sea allowing energy companies to test thdir | :09:26. | :09:28. | |
devices. There were in fact four berths available connected to the | :09:29. | :09:31. | |
power grid by an underwater cable. Three companies have signed up over | :09:32. | :09:35. | |
the past 18 months and todax the Hub announced that the final berth had | :09:36. | :09:38. | |
been leased. It now has its fourth customer, it is an Australi`n | :09:39. | :09:42. | |
company called Carnegie. Thdir devices will be very differdnt from | :09:43. | :09:45. | |
the other companies as theirs will be completely underwater. Otr | :09:46. | :09:51. | |
technology consists of a buoy that moves with the waves, it activates a | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
compact that is anchored to the sea floor. That pump develops pressure | :09:56. | :10:02. | |
on the socket. Our current level of technology which we call. Wd're | :10:03. | :10:06. | |
currently deploying in Australia and that pumps out water and generates | :10:07. | :10:11. | |
electricity. We will be makhng a significant step change, I think, in | :10:12. | :10:15. | |
our developers which we are the Wave Hub costs ?30 million to buhld. | :10:16. | :10:24. | |
Those behind the project sax the global interest proves it w`s money | :10:25. | :10:29. | |
well spent. It has taken a little while for us to get to the stage. I | :10:30. | :10:33. | |
hope now people will see th`t it was worth taking that investment | :10:34. | :10:36. | |
decision, having that patience and we will now start delivering for | :10:37. | :10:42. | |
Cornwall. The first company to produce electricity will Se`tricity, | :10:43. | :10:44. | |
their devices currently being built in Falmouth. Wave Hub say, hf it | :10:45. | :10:48. | |
goes well, they could be producing commercial on trustee by next year. | :10:49. | :11:04. | |
The Royal Mail has defended its actions after suspending deliveries | :11:05. | :11:08. | |
to more than 80 homes on an estate near Dorchester. It claims that a | :11:09. | :11:10. | |
postman was subjected to threatening behaviour by a resident at Oaklands | :11:11. | :11:13. | |
Park at Crossways. Residents say Royal Mail failed to let thdm know | :11:14. | :11:17. | |
what was happening and they've been left to get the post to people's | :11:18. | :11:23. | |
doors. Briony Leyland reports. The post man does still come to call at | :11:24. | :11:27. | |
Oaklands Park, but it is brhef, just long enough to hand over thd posts. | :11:28. | :11:32. | |
After that, it is down to the residents to collect their letters. | :11:33. | :11:39. | |
The Royal Mail says it has suspended deliveries last Wednesday after a | :11:40. | :11:44. | |
postman was subject to thre`tening behaviour by a resident, but the | :11:45. | :11:49. | |
person involved denies the claim. The largely elderly community is | :11:50. | :11:53. | |
muddling through, with more active residents delivering to the less | :11:54. | :11:57. | |
mobile. Nobody is happy with the situation. People have missdd | :11:58. | :12:01. | |
appointments, people have gone to the sorting office to pick tp mail | :12:02. | :12:05. | |
and found that there were flowers left there. This is not right. It is | :12:06. | :12:12. | |
a problem in that we are accustomed to have the post coming through the | :12:13. | :12:18. | |
letterbox as it should. At ` packed residents' meeting, the man`gement | :12:19. | :12:22. | |
said there was no obvious solution on the table from mail. Thex have | :12:23. | :12:28. | |
not come up with anyways of resolving the issue. It is not | :12:29. | :12:33. | |
satisfactory. it is very bad. They never notified the residents. I | :12:34. | :12:37. | |
believe they have a right to say that they are stopping the lail The | :12:38. | :12:40. | |
Royal Mail are there for a service and they are not performing that | :12:41. | :12:44. | |
service. The Royal Mail told us that the safety and welfare of otr staff | :12:45. | :12:48. | |
is paramount and we only suspended deliveries if they safety of our | :12:49. | :12:51. | |
postmen or woman is at All concerned hope that the return | :12:52. | :13:13. | |
to normal service is reached soon. ?750,000 is to be spent on saving | :13:14. | :13:16. | |
greater horse shoe bats in Devon. They're at risk because thex're | :13:17. | :13:19. | |
losing their habitats. Now landowners are being encour`ged to | :13:20. | :13:22. | |
help with money from the Heritage Lottery Fund. Our Environment | :13:23. | :13:24. | |
Correspondent Adrian Campbell has been to a secret location in Devon | :13:25. | :13:28. | |
with Colin Morris from the Vincent Wildlife Trust where we had to have | :13:29. | :13:31. | |
a special permit to film thd bats. We are very fortunate, we h`ve the | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
largest colony in Western Etrope. We have over 1500 bats here during the | :13:36. | :13:38. | |
summer. During the winter, we have 1000 to 1200 bats. We may bd | :13:39. | :13:42. | |
fortunate enough to see one or two bats here today. Yes, there is the | :13:43. | :13:47. | |
species that is most import`nt, the greater horseshoe bat. It is hanging | :13:48. | :13:51. | |
up their fast asleep. It is in a state that we call torpor. Lovely | :13:52. | :13:59. | |
animal. There are hundreds of bats like this, and they have bedn having | :14:00. | :14:02. | |
problems across the country, haven't they? Yes, they have. Changhng | :14:03. | :14:06. | |
farming practices means the habitat that they once used has now | :14:07. | :14:11. | |
disappeared. The insect prex that they would like to feed on `nd the | :14:12. | :14:15. | |
places they visited had dis`ppeared. When they take flight from their | :14:16. | :14:18. | |
roost, the bats are simply stunning to see. They dart through twilight | :14:19. | :14:30. | |
into the darkness of night. This sort of woodland hedge habitat like | :14:31. | :14:34. | |
this is absolutely fantastic for the bats. Peter's from the Devon | :14:35. | :14:37. | |
Wildlife Trust and says he hs delighted that ?750,000 frol the | :14:38. | :14:40. | |
Heritage Lottery Fund is coling to Devon to help the bats. Somd of that | :14:41. | :14:44. | |
will be used to help farmers re`establish bushy hedgerows, | :14:45. | :14:46. | |
grazing pastures and roosts for this remarkable mammal. It is thd most | :14:47. | :14:53. | |
important area for the bats in the whole of northern Europe. They are | :14:54. | :14:56. | |
centred here in Devon, especially in South Devon, so this is a rdal boost | :14:57. | :15:01. | |
for the bats. It is also a way for communities to engage and bd | :15:02. | :15:04. | |
involved in this project. Wd take pride, really, that the bats are | :15:05. | :15:07. | |
using the landscapes on people's doorsteps. Mind your head as you go. | :15:08. | :15:11. | |
Our infrared camera could not get inside the cave network where | :15:12. | :15:17. | |
hundreds of bats roost. But we were able to see inside this man`made | :15:18. | :15:21. | |
roost, now with the help of the lottery, greater horseshoe bats will | :15:22. | :15:23. | |
hopefully go from strength to strength in the South West. | :15:24. | :15:35. | |
Cycling's Tour of Britain is coming to Devon for the eighth year in a | :15:36. | :15:39. | |
row and it's hoped Sir Bradley Wiggins will return to defend his | :15:40. | :15:42. | |
title. Last year, the stage from Sidmouth to Dartmoor attracted a | :15:43. | :15:45. | |
record 250,000 spectators, `nd it's thought that brought an extra ? | :15:46. | :15:48. | |
million to the economy in the South West. This September, the cxclists | :15:49. | :15:51. | |
will contest a gruelling 106`mile course from Exmouth to Exetdr via | :15:52. | :15:56. | |
Haytor, Okehampton and Credhton The toughest section of the route is | :15:57. | :16:00. | |
across Dartmoor. Anna Varle is there for us this evening. | :16:01. | :16:09. | |
Come September, you will sed where I'm standing, 120 of the world's top | :16:10. | :16:17. | |
cyclists will go past me. The Devon stage of the route is up to 170 | :16:18. | :16:22. | |
kilometres long, it is fifth stage of the competition. I do not | :16:23. | :16:25. | |
normally dress like this whdn I m working but today I gave thd route | :16:26. | :16:31. | |
to go. It is the largest evdnt in Britain, and this year is expected | :16:32. | :16:35. | |
to be more spectacular than ever before. The route from Exmotth to | :16:36. | :16:40. | |
Exeter will be longer, with a large part of it over Dartmoor. Kden | :16:41. | :16:43. | |
cyclist Alex Partridge took me out to samples sections. How hard is it? | :16:44. | :16:52. | |
It is gruelling. This is probably the steepest hill. By the thme they | :16:53. | :16:56. | |
get here, they have travelldd a long distance. They have to go all the | :16:57. | :17:00. | |
way back to Exeter, too. Ond quarter of women `` 750,000 watched it last | :17:01. | :17:07. | |
year and this September the turnout is expected to be bigger. `` | :17:08. | :17:13. | |
250,000. There will be so mhtigating things that we have to do stch is | :17:14. | :17:17. | |
the capacity of car parks and exactly where the route is going. I | :17:18. | :17:22. | |
don't think we will have to do too much to restrict the public, there | :17:23. | :17:26. | |
is a lot of space and as was proven two years ago it was one of the | :17:27. | :17:35. | |
busiest days of the year. On the longer `` the longer route | :17:36. | :17:39. | |
means that some villagers whll get extra trade. People will hopefully | :17:40. | :17:44. | |
come and I will like it and come back. It was brilliant couple of | :17:45. | :17:50. | |
years ago. It was a flash, but it's brought so many people out. It was | :17:51. | :17:54. | |
great to see. The economy is not the only thing to benefit, cyclhng shops | :17:55. | :17:58. | |
in the event encourages mord people onto their bikes. A lot of cyclists | :17:59. | :18:05. | |
are taking up the sport and there is a lot more on the leisure and, two, | :18:06. | :18:14. | |
on the racing side there is also an expansion as a direct result of | :18:15. | :18:21. | |
people getting on a bike. Two to three cyclists are expected to | :18:22. | :18:24. | |
compete from Devon, but it hs on loan # unknown whether Radldy | :18:25. | :18:29. | |
Wiggins will return to defend his title. I have been told by ` | :18:30. | :18:33. | |
professional cyclist that it is the Devon part of the route that some | :18:34. | :18:40. | |
international cyclists find the most attractive. But to say some parts of | :18:41. | :18:45. | |
it is challenging `` are ch`llenging is an understatement. | :18:46. | :18:48. | |
Well done for giving it a go. What a nice way to spend thd day. | :18:49. | :18:54. | |
It looked lovely. Model plane enthusiasts havd flown | :18:55. | :18:57. | |
into a row over the noise gdnerated by their aircraft. The group fly | :18:58. | :19:00. | |
their planes on Dartmoor, btt have now been banned after some people | :19:01. | :19:03. | |
living nearby complained th`t the methanol`powered engines frhghten | :19:04. | :19:05. | |
walkers and animals. Julie Fisher has been to meet members of the | :19:06. | :19:09. | |
flying club to find out why they've been grounded. | :19:10. | :19:15. | |
After two decades, the pilots of this club have hit a bit of | :19:16. | :19:24. | |
turbulence. They are using lethanol powered planes under licencd from | :19:25. | :19:27. | |
the national Park two days ` week for more than 20 years, but now they | :19:28. | :19:33. | |
have been grounded. Members can only use battery power, it cost `round | :19:34. | :19:37. | |
?600 per plane to convert them and the club is breaking up. We come and | :19:38. | :19:44. | |
do a bit of flying, we sits down as you have seen, have a bit of banter, | :19:45. | :19:51. | |
but it is all gone now as the majority of us have disappe`red The | :19:52. | :19:55. | |
club's last application for permanent permission to fly planes | :19:56. | :20:03. | |
was turned down. The council objected saying that sheep, cattle | :20:04. | :20:09. | |
and riders were being terrorised. The complaints are spurious and | :20:10. | :20:14. | |
spiteful. There are no livestock around. One person who wrotd the | :20:15. | :20:18. | |
objection did not want to bd identified, but told me that the | :20:19. | :20:23. | |
bylaws do not allow model planes to fly at all. The authority insists | :20:24. | :20:27. | |
that the more must be capped tranquil. One of the key attributes | :20:28. | :20:31. | |
is that people can come herd and enjoy the beautiful scenery and | :20:32. | :20:36. | |
enjoy the quiet and the removed the nests of the area. The flying club | :20:37. | :20:41. | |
hopes that planners at the 30 will eventually allow all of thehr planes | :20:42. | :20:42. | |
back in the air. More than 1,000 schoolchildren from | :20:43. | :20:53. | |
across Devon today converged on the University of Exeter sports park. It | :20:54. | :20:57. | |
was the county's first school games of the year with the biggest | :20:58. | :20:59. | |
participation to date. Spotlight's Dave Gibbins went along to see what | :21:00. | :21:02. | |
it was all about. There was a musical start to the | :21:03. | :21:06. | |
Devon School Games. The opening ceremony woke up the 1000 or so | :21:07. | :21:12. | |
schoolchildren. The special guest on the day was from the Team GB women's | :21:13. | :21:17. | |
beach volleyball squad. It lade its debut in the London 2012 Olxmpic | :21:18. | :21:22. | |
Games. It is definitely good for volleyball and all sports. Not many | :21:23. | :21:26. | |
kids get the chance to compdte on a weekly or monthly basis at different | :21:27. | :21:32. | |
spots. `` sports. This way, they can compete and get the juices going and | :21:33. | :21:36. | |
enjoy sport and enjoy huge occasions like this. It is great. The whole | :21:37. | :21:40. | |
event is arranged by Active Devon. There was a whole range of sports | :21:41. | :21:43. | |
and which the children reprdsented the different regions. The | :21:44. | :21:47. | |
facilities at the Sports Park are fantastic. We have brilliant indoor | :21:48. | :21:50. | |
facilities, a good range of outdoor facilities, too, and when you run an | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
event like this with ten or 12 different sports involved all on the | :21:55. | :21:57. | |
same day to be able to have everything in one place really adds | :21:58. | :22:02. | |
to the festival atmosphere. Oh, it has been brilliant. Everyond has | :22:03. | :22:06. | |
enjoyed it. It has been a f`ntastic day. Everyone has enjoyed a day off | :22:07. | :22:10. | |
school, but everybody's havhng fun and doing their favourite sports. I | :22:11. | :22:15. | |
think it is really good that they have managed to organise thhs and | :22:16. | :22:18. | |
great that everyone is having fun doing them. It is really nice seeing | :22:19. | :22:22. | |
all of different schools pl`ying. I am glad to be part of it. What is | :22:23. | :22:26. | |
your favourite sport? Hockex, probably. Hockey. There are five | :22:27. | :22:34. | |
events in total throughout the year. The next two are at the Plylouth | :22:35. | :22:38. | |
Life Centre in June and then will be back here at the University Sports | :22:39. | :22:42. | |
Park. Of course, it will be summer, so it will be bigger, brighter and | :22:43. | :22:54. | |
even more popular. We have seen some blue skies and | :22:55. | :22:59. | |
some reports, but when we wdre live it looks like the weather w`s | :23:00. | :23:01. | |
closing in. Good evening. It has been another | :23:02. | :23:11. | |
lovely day with the sunshind. Some pretty good temperatures, 17, 1 | :23:12. | :23:16. | |
Celsius. Not quite so warm tomorrow, quite a bit more cloud around, and | :23:17. | :23:20. | |
the cloud will produce showdrs. Some early in the day, they will | :23:21. | :23:24. | |
gradually clear, dryer for ` time and then some persistent rahn | :23:25. | :23:30. | |
returning. The satellite picture shows a lot of cloud now across us, | :23:31. | :23:34. | |
so we have seen the last re`lly fine day for the rest of the week, there | :23:35. | :23:37. | |
is a lot more cloud around `nd it will produce a few showers. One | :23:38. | :23:42. | |
system trickles past us overnight. That has some light showers on it. | :23:43. | :23:46. | |
By the time we get to the end of the day, a second weather systel is much | :23:47. | :23:50. | |
more active, it will producd more persistent rain during the course of | :23:51. | :23:54. | |
the evening and overnight. Ht should be clear of most of us by the middle | :23:55. | :24:30. | |
of the day. It is on improvhng day on Thursday after the morning rain | :24:31. | :24:33. | |
clears. It should become drx. The cloud has been drifting up from the | :24:34. | :24:35. | |
South today, and there has been some outbreaks of rain on that lhne of | :24:36. | :24:38. | |
cloud that is coming in over the last couple of hours. This was | :24:39. | :24:41. | |
earlier today where we did have some fine weather. Actually, sprhng | :24:42. | :24:43. | |
really showed its hand. The warmth of the sunshine over the last few | :24:44. | :24:45. | |
days has done wonders for the blossom and that boss is coling out | :24:46. | :24:48. | |
just about everywhere across the South West of England, so it is | :24:49. | :24:51. | |
looking quite come out in the also, the Hawthorn are starting to come | :24:52. | :24:53. | |
out in the overnight tonight. They will drift away from us, but more | :24:54. | :24:56. | |
will come from the South ovdr the second half of the night. Expect/ | :24:57. | :24:58. | |

it. Temperatures would be to lower overnight. Tomorrow we have a cloudy | :25:16. | :25:18. | |

the weekend arrives All across the country, millions of | :26:06. | :26:42. | |
families are waking up to a Britain in which they find it harder to get | :26:43. | :26:47. | |
on. Whilst the Government keeps telling people everything is fixed, | :26:48. | :26:50. | |
many are finding that hard work no longer stops the pound in their | :26:51. | :26:53. | |
pocket getting smaller, or the bills getting harder to afford. Under | :26:54. | :26:58. | |
