years, but today something went wrong.

A family was forced to flee a burning house in the early hours of

commotion. The fire was eventually put out but

:02:48.:02:49.

I got out of bed and heard this humongous crack. The girls had a

running down the roads, sliding a car for help.

most of their belongings. `` you helped them.

:03:21.:03:24.

A service has been held in Torquay to remember the US servicemdn who

:03:25.:03:28.

left from the harbour, for the Normandy landings. More than

:03:29.:03:30.

23,000 men of the US Fourth Infantry

:03:31.:03:32.

Division left Torquay for Utah beach. Veterans from D`Day joined

:03:33.:03:34.

The real heroes were the soldiers ceremony at Beacon Quay.

:03:35.:03:49.

The real heroes were the soldiers who spent 12 hours or more hn

:03:50.:04:00.

landing barges. They were up to their necks in water. They went in

:04:01.:04:07.

and did the job they were stpposed to do.

:04:08.:04:09.

Time now for a look at the weather ` and here's Emily.

:04:10.:04:15.

We will see some dry weather through the night. Some heavier downpours

:04:16.:04:24.

across Cornwall, and showers pushing into Devon first thing tomorrow

:04:25.:04:28.

morning. It will be a mild night with loads of 13 degrees. On Sunday,

:04:29.:04:33.

we will have some dry and bright weather through the day. A

:04:34.:04:38.

scattering of showers tomorrow, but many of us enjoying sunshind. It

:04:39.:04:45.

will be quite warm, particularly where we see sunnier spells. Next

:04:46.:04:50.

week, it does remain quite changeable with further showers

:04:51.:04:53.

through Monday and Tuesday. We do have the risk of thunder.

:04:54.:04:55.

That's all from us for now ` just a reminder you can see more phctures

:04:56.:04:59.

from that D`day service on our Facebook page. From all of ts here,

:05:00.:05:02.

Good evening. Most of us have seen some rain so far today. It started

:05:03.:05:19.

off in the south. As it worked its way north, we lost the thunder and

:05:20.:05:24.

the lightning. Many of us ended the day on a decent note. After a decent

:05:25.:05:29.

day in the north of Scotland, that band of rain marches northwards Be

:05:30.:05:34.

hiengd it, there is a -- behind it, there is a lot of dry weather to be

:05:35.:05:40.

found. Most of us are dry by the end of the night and relatively mild.

:05:41.:05:45.

Starting Sunday in Scotland, still some showers around in the south and

:05:46.:05:49.

the west. I suspect the north and the east are getting off to a decent

:05:50.:05:53.

start to the day. The North West, there may be a bit more cloud.

:05:54.:05:56.

Northern Ireland doing quite well through the morning. Across Wales,
