:00:00. > 3:59:59George. Thank you. That's all so it's goodbye from me and on BBC One

:00:00. > :01:18.we confirmed it is in takeover talks

:01:19. > :01:21.with UK firm Produce Investments. The Jersey Royal Company has been in

:01:22. > :01:25.talks with Produce Investments for the last eight years.

:01:26. > :01:28.The Jersey Royal Potato Company employs 500 people in the island at

:01:29. > :01:31.peak season, growing, grading, washing and packing the iconic

:01:32. > :01:34.vegetable for the UK market. It s the biggest exporter of the Jersey

:01:35. > :01:40.Royal and today a Scottish firm Produce Investments, confirmed it's

:01:41. > :01:43.in talks to buy the company. The news comes at the start of

:01:44. > :01:46.planting season. Charles Gallashan exports Jersey Royals himself, as

:01:47. > :01:50.well growing for the larger supppliers. He says he would worry

:01:51. > :01:56.that the involvement of larger companies could lead to falling

:01:57. > :01:59.prices. There is an obvious concern that in the future, the two

:02:00. > :02:04.companies try and sort of dominate one another, and that could lead to

:02:05. > :02:06.some price wars, and of course, the loser out of all of that could be

:02:07. > :02:10.the grower. But he hopes that if the deal does

:02:11. > :02:15.go ahead, the two big firms would look after its growers. Both of them

:02:16. > :02:19.want to do a good job, they want to sell the Jersey Royals for a good

:02:20. > :02:22.return and they want to look after their supply base as well.

:02:23. > :02:25.But just how important is it to Jersey's consumers that one of its

:02:26. > :02:29.most famous exports are owned by islanders? We are losing so much on

:02:30. > :02:34.the island, aren't we? With cattle, the changes there, and I think it

:02:35. > :02:37.would be sad. I think it is important that we get help from the

:02:38. > :02:43.mainland, although I would like Jersey companies to stay Jersey

:02:44. > :02:47.companies. But in this economy, we need their help I suppose. This is

:02:48. > :02:50.one of their flagship products, and everybody knows the Jersey Royal and

:02:51. > :02:55.it would cease to be the Jersey Royal, in my opinion. As long as it

:02:56. > :02:57.pumps the money into the economy and keeps the economy money and brings

:02:58. > :03:00.jobs, good for them. Jersey Royal Company were not

:03:01. > :03:02.available for interview, but told the BBC it would strengthen

:03:03. > :03:15.business, and they were not expecting job losses.

:03:16. > :03:18.Earlier, I spoke to Richard Ford, Deputy Fresh Foods Editor of The

:03:19. > :03:22.Grocer Magazine. I asked him what this move meant for the industry. If

:03:23. > :03:24.it goes ahead, it will with a coming together of two strong companies in

:03:25. > :03:32.the potato industry, meaning that together they will have eight ``a

:03:33. > :03:37.greater clout and be able to do business together. Are you surprised

:03:38. > :03:43.by the move? I was a bit surprised and sometimes, these things tend to

:03:44. > :03:46.come out in the Wash and we certainly didn't have any wind of it

:03:47. > :03:50.prior to the announcement yesterday. Now, if this sale does go

:03:51. > :03:56.through, does it matter that Jersey Royals will not be owned by a Jersey

:03:57. > :04:01.`based company? Not at all, no. Jersey Royals, as listeners will

:04:02. > :04:09.know, they carry a certain EU mark which is a protected designation of

:04:10. > :04:14.origin mark, and that protects the technique of growing, so whoever

:04:15. > :04:16.owns it, as long as the Jersey Royal potatoes carried out Mark, nothing

:04:17. > :04:27.will change. Richard Ford speaking to me earlier.

:04:28. > :04:30.Guernsey's Public Services Department may pay for the weather

:04:31. > :04:32.forecasts for the Bailiwick from next year. The Environment

:04:33. > :04:35.Department currently pays for the service from Jersey Met and recently

:04:36. > :04:39.asked all States departments how useful they found it. But while the

:04:40. > :04:42.politicians slog it out, one man is providing his own take on the

:04:43. > :04:46.weather, as Mike Wilkins reports. Guernsey's never had any foxes.

:04:47. > :04:49.Until now. This man goes by the name of the Guernsey Weather Fox. He was

:04:50. > :04:54.a forecaster for the UK Met Office and moved to the island a year ago

:04:55. > :04:57.when his wife took a teaching job. He's making ends meet as a gardener,

:04:58. > :05:00.but his real passion is what's all around us, the weather. He uses

:05:01. > :05:04.what's freely available to provide detailed forecasts for Guernsey on a

:05:05. > :05:07.social media website. But he's the first to admit he's no threat to the

:05:08. > :05:16.Jersey Met Office who provide Guernsey's weather forecasts. I

:05:17. > :05:21.leave the more detailed stuff about aviation, etc, to the people in

:05:22. > :05:24.Jersey who have access to much more sophisticated data than I have. For

:05:25. > :05:28.more detailed forecasts, this is where it all happens, the Jersey Met

:05:29. > :05:31.Office. Guernsey pays it for a forecasting service, but that fee

:05:32. > :05:41.hasn't increased in a decade and could soon rise. The Jersey Met

:05:42. > :05:44.department was set up in the 19 0s as the forecast is for the Channel

:05:45. > :05:47.Islands and we have always born that in mind, that we are the forecast is

:05:48. > :05:51.for the Channel Islands, and as such, I feel it is incumbent upon

:05:52. > :05:53.the Channel Islands to be contributing towards the provision

:05:54. > :05:56.of the service. Guernsey's government departments are under

:05:57. > :05:58.pressure to make cuts as the island tries to reduce its deficit. The

:05:59. > :06:01.Environment Department pays for weather forecasting, but says

:06:02. > :06:08.another department should have responsibility. The figures for

:06:09. > :06:15.Guernsey met services are about 115,000 a year. For Jersey, it is

:06:16. > :06:20.about 215,000 a year. But if the policy Council agree, the full

:06:21. > :06:23.budget will pass across to whichever department takes responsibility We

:06:24. > :06:27.do need to see much of the service, all of the service, that is

:06:28. > :06:30.currently provided, we need that operationally. So we will have a

:06:31. > :06:33.look at things once the policy Council has made a decision about

:06:34. > :06:36.its reaction to the deputy's proposals. The weather's very

:06:37. > :06:39.important to many people living and working in Guernsey, but whether the

:06:40. > :06:49.island will continue to cough up isn't so easy to forecast.

:06:50. > :06:52.The Chief Ministers of Guernsey and Jersey have been meeting Members of

:06:53. > :06:55.the European Parliament in a landmark occasion. It's the first

:06:56. > :06:57.time the heads of both islands have visited the European Parliament in

:06:58. > :07:01.Brussels. Guernsey's Chief Minister, Deputy Peter Harwood, told the BBC

:07:02. > :07:04.that while the Bailiwicks are technically outside of the EU, it's

:07:05. > :07:06.crucial to be engaged with the Parliament's decisions, and to

:07:07. > :07:13.maintain a full working relationship with Brussels. Clearly, European

:07:14. > :07:22.directives are important to us, insofar as they run the financial

:07:23. > :07:26.services, but it is not limited to that. Data protection is an

:07:27. > :07:29.important issue, aviation is a critical issue, because we are

:07:30. > :07:33.almost in the European aviation space, so there are a number of

:07:34. > :07:36.issues that we need to progress and we need to show we are islands of

:07:37. > :07:39.substance and differentiate ourselves between other, more remote

:07:40. > :07:42.offshore jurisdictions. Jersey's Chief Minister, Senator Ian

:07:43. > :07:45.Gorst, told us that whatever the differences between the two islands

:07:46. > :07:52.at home, it was crucial to show a united front on the international

:07:53. > :07:56.stage. We are viewed as the Channel Islands, and not as individual

:07:57. > :08:00.islands. We have worked very well together and it is far easier, I

:08:01. > :08:07.suppose, as well, for securing meetings if we are working together,

:08:08. > :08:11.and that his wife the setting up of the office `` that is why the

:08:12. > :08:14.setting up of the office and the work we have done in the past and

:08:15. > :08:19.this first joint ministerial visit to Brussels, I think, has been so

:08:20. > :08:22.successful. A mother in Guernsey has started a

:08:23. > :08:25.campaign to reinstate free dental treatment for the island's children.

:08:26. > :08:28.The service was scaled back in 006, leading to concerns that lower

:08:29. > :08:30.income families would struggle to pay to see a dentist. Penny

:08:31. > :08:33.Elderfield reports. With four children ` three needing

:08:34. > :08:41.orthodontic treatment ` Kristy knows only too well that the cost of

:08:42. > :08:47.dental treatment can soon rack up. And she thinks the States need to do

:08:48. > :08:51.more to help families afford it Things need to be done to the

:08:52. > :08:54.families that can't afford it, the children who require treatment. It

:08:55. > :08:57.not only impacts on them there, but also in the future. That's why she's

:08:58. > :09:02.started this online campaign, calling on the States to reintroduce

:09:03. > :09:05.free dental care. Something that was offered to all children at the PEH,

:09:06. > :09:09.via the schools dental service, until 2006, when the service was

:09:10. > :09:12.scaled back. Now only families that meet certain criteria are eligible

:09:13. > :09:17.to come here for treatment, such as those on supplementary benefit. And

:09:18. > :09:25.other low income families can apply to be means`tested if they need

:09:26. > :09:29.support. But Social Security says there has been little demand for it,

:09:30. > :09:32., with just ten families asking for help last year. But Kristy still

:09:33. > :09:36.feels there's more out there that need it, and that the current system

:09:37. > :09:39.for getting it is too restrictive. I know of other people, other

:09:40. > :09:43.families, who have been turned away and what are their children doing

:09:44. > :09:51.now? How many children are out there not getting the treatment they

:09:52. > :09:54.require? The Health Department says the current service is constantly

:09:55. > :09:57.under review, with the focus on providing care to those who need it

:09:58. > :10:00.most. But just as families know dental care isn't cheap, the

:10:01. > :10:04.Government also knows that, with finances tight, there's a limit to

:10:05. > :10:07.what it can offer. Two men have appeared in the City of

:10:08. > :10:10.London Magistrates Court in connection with a ?2.6 million fraud

:10:11. > :10:13.against the States of Guernsey in July 2012. 56`year`old John Anthony

:10:14. > :10:15.Woodhatch, from Essex, and 44`year`old Adrian Taylor, from

:10:16. > :10:18.Knightsbridge in London, face charges of conspiracy to defraud and

:10:19. > :10:21.money laundering. They have been committed to Southwark Crown Court

:10:22. > :10:32.and will appear there later this month.

:10:33. > :10:35.Now, here's a chance to see inside Jersey's Masonic temple. The Jersey

:10:36. > :10:39.branch of the Freemasons is hoping to make itself more accessible to

:10:40. > :10:41.wheelchair users, and make it more welcoming for women when its planned

:10:42. > :10:45.works finish next summer. Torri Orchard took a look around the

:10:46. > :10:48.iconic building in St Helier. It's a well`known Masonic temple in

:10:49. > :10:50.Britain, with its classical look and towering pillars and it's where

:10:51. > :10:56.members of the Freemasons have gathered for hundreds of years. But

:10:57. > :11:00.now the temple here in St Helier is going to have work done to bring the

:11:01. > :11:03.Jersey branch into the 21st century. The plans will see better access for

:11:04. > :11:11.wheelchair users, and, for the increasing numbers of female guests,

:11:12. > :11:15.improved toilet facilities. The work we are going to do will not affect

:11:16. > :11:23.the two facades that are listed on the outside of the building, and we

:11:24. > :11:27.hope to create facilities at Masons of 2,000 expect. Whereas, the

:11:28. > :11:33.building was designed originally for the expectations of the Masons in

:11:34. > :11:37.the 1860s, so you can imagine it has changed a bit since then.

:11:38. > :11:40.The group are paying for the work, which is likely to cost almost

:11:41. > :11:44.?200,000 and it expects it be finished by next summer. `` it will

:11:45. > :11:45.be finished. Then this ancient organisation will be taking a leap

:11:46. > :12:00.into the modern world. In my opinion today, and we had a

:12:01. > :12:06.bit of a damp or here in the last hour `` it is feeling a lot colder

:12:07. > :12:10.in my opinion. Dan has the forecast.

:12:11. > :12:13.Thankfully, no significant rainfall in our forecast for the time being,

:12:14. > :12:20.which is good news, I'm sure you will agree, particularly for

:12:21. > :12:23.Guernsey's reservoirs, which are at capacity already. Tomorrow is

:12:24. > :12:27.generally a dry story of the most of the day, bright with some sunshine

:12:28. > :12:31.although tending to cloud over. Here is the synoptic situation. A reach

:12:32. > :12:34.here with some high pressure keeping things generally settled. This

:12:35. > :12:39.weather front is coming tomorrow night, it has come all the way from

:12:40. > :12:42.America, and it is what has caused the bad weather, but as it has come

:12:43. > :12:47.over the Atlantic, it has gotten weaker and we have seen it warm up

:12:48. > :12:51.somewhat. Saturday, it is looking pretty cold, brightness through the

:12:52. > :12:54.day and generally dry. Tonight, if few more showers around the time

:12:55. > :12:58.being, and as we have seen through this afternoon. They will tend to

:12:59. > :13:01.clear to go into the second part of the night, with the wind is falling

:13:02. > :13:06.fairly light overnight and temperatures down to seven or eight

:13:07. > :13:09.degrees. Tomorrow, generally dry start, one or two showers skirting

:13:10. > :13:14.over to the north of the islands but the most of us, it should stay dry

:13:15. > :13:17.through much the day. Fairly bright and some sunshine around before it

:13:18. > :13:20.starts to cloud over into the evening with temperatures just

:13:21. > :13:21.nudging into double figures, I think. Taking a look at the coastal

:13:22. > :13:40.waters forecast. Taking a look at the Surf

:13:41. > :13:44.conditions, generally 2`4 feet, it should be clean on the north facing

:13:45. > :13:47.coast with the winds coming from the south of the south`west and then the

:13:48. > :13:52.outlook, well, some rain tomorrow night, perhaps, as it starts to

:13:53. > :13:55.clear out but we should see it away for Saturday, generally a bright

:13:56. > :13:59.day. It is turning colder, definitely a difference on Saturday

:14:00. > :14:04.as it turns cooler with the winds from the nerve. Sunday, tried to

:14:05. > :14:08.start with, but maybe some rain later.

:14:09. > :14:12.Not too bad the tomorrow or Saturday by the looks of things. That is it

:14:13. > :14:18.from us for tonight. Justin and Natalie will be with you next with

:14:19. > :14:22.the World War One widow paying tribute on a special banner to mark

:14:23. > :14:23.100 years since the start of the conflict.

:14:24. > :14:26.nothing else to say. He was left in no doubt if he starts up his

:14:27. > :14:29.business within two years he will go to jail.

:14:30. > :14:33.Casualty departments in the South West were put under extra strain

:14:34. > :14:36.this Christmas by patients turning up with minor ailments such as

:14:37. > :14:40.coughs and colds. Doctors fear it diverts attention away from patients

:14:41. > :14:43.who really need help. The problem was particularly bad in Torbay,

:14:44. > :14:46.although the hospital says it still managed to maintain its targets for

:14:47. > :14:49.seeing patients within four hours, despite the extra pressure. Our

:14:50. > :15:03.South Devon reporter John Ayres is there now.

:15:04. > :15:06.We all get coughs and colds at this time of year, but accident and

:15:07. > :15:10.emergency is not the place to come. You should see your GP or

:15:11. > :15:14.pharmacist. Many are coming to accident and emergency which puts

:15:15. > :15:19.pressures on the doctors and people who need their care.

:15:20. > :15:23.Accident and emergency is a busy place at the best of times. Over

:15:24. > :15:27.Christmas it was especially so, made worse by patients turning up with

:15:28. > :15:32.minor ailments which would be normally dealt with by a pharmacist

:15:33. > :15:36.or GP. I am a highly skilled doctor but my resources are to deal with

:15:37. > :15:42.the emergency patients who have critical illnesses, an accident with

:15:43. > :15:50.life`threatening injuries. That is what we are here to deal with. GPs

:15:51. > :15:54.and minor injuries units are for other things.

:15:55. > :15:59.Units have been busy over Christmas. Tor basal 1400 patients,

:16:00. > :16:04.well above the regional average. A similar story in Devon and Exeter.

:16:05. > :16:08.And Plymouth. To give an idea how much accident and emergency was

:16:09. > :16:13.slowed up, 65 patients in Torbay waited more than four hours to be

:16:14. > :16:17.admitted. 49 ab... Had to queue up to bring patients in. There is a

:16:18. > :16:22.campaign encouraging patients to take their elements to GPs but is

:16:23. > :16:28.the message getting across? We have a very good system of care out of

:16:29. > :16:33.hours. Maybe people aren't as aware. One thing they can do is, if they

:16:34. > :16:41.are not sure, they can phone NHS Direct. They can either take advice

:16:42. > :16:47.or be advised to contact the GP. They confirmed their GP surgery.

:16:48. > :16:50.They will be redirected to the out of hours service. The fear is

:16:51. > :16:54.patients go to accident and emergency because they will struggle

:16:55. > :17:01.to access out of hours services, something doctors say should not be

:17:02. > :17:05.a problem. The message from the NHS is, first, ring your GP.

:17:06. > :17:10.If it is out of hours, there should be a telephone number ten a new how

:17:11. > :17:14.to contact an out of hours GP. There is a perception there is a problem

:17:15. > :17:20.contacting GPs out of hours. Judith has e`mailed saying she had

:17:21. > :17:21.difficulties at weekends and her message was not to get ill on a

:17:22. > :17:27.Saturday or Sunday. The company behind plans for a

:17:28. > :17:30.luxury hotel on Drake's Island in Plymouth Sound is trying for the

:17:31. > :17:32.third time to get permission to re`develop the site. Planners turned

:17:33. > :17:35.down the original scheme, saying they hadn't been given enough

:17:36. > :17:38.information about how wildlife might be affected. The company now says

:17:39. > :17:44.it's consulted environmental experts as part of its new application.

:17:45. > :17:49.A widow from Devon, whose husband served in the First World War, has

:17:50. > :17:53.become the first person to pay tribute to a loved one on a special

:17:54. > :17:56.memorial. The banner to help people remember relatives who took part in

:17:57. > :17:59.the conflict is to tour Devon, to mark the centenary of the outbreak

:18:00. > :18:02.of fighting. Poppies will be sewn around the six`foot`tall banner,

:18:03. > :18:11.each one in honour of someone who died. Emma Thomasson reports.

:18:12. > :18:19.A widow's special tribute, 93`year`old Dorothy Ellis is the

:18:20. > :18:26.phone last collection at the last surviving widow of a First World War

:18:27. > :18:30.veteran. Her husband had been shot, gassed and left for dead. The world

:18:31. > :18:38.would be a far better place if people remembered the awful things

:18:39. > :18:43.that happened. Maybe there wouldn't be so much trouble in the world.

:18:44. > :18:47.Dorothy's puppy will be added to a special tribute to those involved in

:18:48. > :18:52.what was supposed to be the war to end all wars. Part of a special

:18:53. > :18:58.banner which will tour Devon this year. Anyone who comes to see it can

:18:59. > :19:00.mark up a puppy with a message. They gave their life for their country

:19:01. > :19:06.and they ought to be remembered for that.

:19:07. > :19:11.They are not having a party. They are away fighting a terrible

:19:12. > :19:16.condition. As the troops are today. Work on the banner which includes

:19:17. > :19:20.intricate design work has taken six months. The painting took six

:19:21. > :19:26.weeks. The horse is called Polly who went to war with her master. He came

:19:27. > :19:33.back but she did not. This will help form a unique record of how the war

:19:34. > :19:37.affected Devon. They can remember by writing on the poppy, but they can

:19:38. > :19:42.also write in the book by the side. They can have their memories of

:19:43. > :19:47.their grandparents. Things which will stay there forever. That book

:19:48. > :19:51.will be given to us to look after. Talks are underway to find a final

:19:52. > :19:56.resting place for the banner once it is taught is complete.

:19:57. > :20:01.Some good news. Two Exeter Chiefs rugby players have

:20:02. > :20:03.been included in the England senior squad for the forthcoming Six

:20:04. > :20:06.Nations' campaign. For the first time, 20`year`old Jack Nowell is

:20:07. > :20:10.amongst the 35`strong party for the tournament which starts on the 1st

:20:14. > :20:15.made his breakthrough into the Chiefs' first`team last season.

:20:16. > :20:17.Nowell's club`mate Tom Johnson is also in the England camp, hoping to

:20:18. > :20:25.add to his five international caps. Devon's Olympic silver medallist

:20:26. > :20:28.Heather Fell has announced her retirement. To mark the end of her

:20:29. > :20:31.modern pentathlon career, she's been speaking to other sports stars about

:20:32. > :20:33.the challenges they faced packing away their trainers and giving up

:20:34. > :20:58.the day job. Competitive sport has always been

:20:59. > :21:04.part of my life. It really is all I have ever known. Pony club when I

:21:05. > :21:09.was tiny lead to modern pentathlon and full`time training at the

:21:10. > :21:14.University of Bath. Giving that up and looking for a real job is

:21:15. > :21:20.daunting. As UK sport athlete, my funding ended exactly three months

:21:21. > :21:25.after my retirement. From that date, access to the doctors, physios and

:21:26. > :21:30.the gym here also ended. To cope with such a change, I have been

:21:31. > :21:33.trying new things. Working with schools and charities, getting

:21:34. > :21:38.experience in the media. I have found it harder than expected to

:21:39. > :21:43.adjust, and wanted to find out how others have faced this leap into the

:21:44. > :21:48.unknown. Injuries have forced Lewis Moody to hang up his boots in 2012.

:21:49. > :21:53.He reached the pinnacle of his sport, but retirement has taken time

:21:54. > :21:59.to sink in. You don't realise to what extent you had condition in

:22:00. > :22:03.your life until it is gone. I was getting more frustrated but

:22:04. > :22:08.pretending I don't miss rugby. Your wife has to tell you to disappear to

:22:09. > :22:15.the gym and release some testosterone. It is a realisation

:22:16. > :22:19.that part of my life is still having to find that competition, fine

:22:20. > :22:36.things that test me and push me outside of rugby now. Stephen won

:22:37. > :22:40.Olympic bronze in 2008. He now is working for an IT company after work

:22:41. > :22:44.experience. You take the last stroke of the Olympic Games, and someone

:22:45. > :22:50.ask what you are going to do now. It is all you have known. You walk into

:22:51. > :22:56.a room and you are still an Olympic medallist. But now, they don't

:22:57. > :22:59.really care who you are. Playing before the professional era, Brian

:23:00. > :23:06.Moore had a legal career to fall back on. I moved to Soho and went

:23:07. > :23:10.wild for six years. I had to go into a treatment programme because I

:23:11. > :23:15.overdid it. It is better if you deal with these issues which are quite

:23:16. > :23:19.terrifying when you look at them. They are unknown. When you have that

:23:20. > :23:26.comfort and sports structure around you... All my experience is people

:23:27. > :23:31.who cope best with retirement are those who plan before it happens.

:23:32. > :23:35.Helping athletes find jobs is now the focus for both `` for sporting

:23:36. > :23:42.bodies. I attended the first of this kind of

:23:43. > :23:45.careers fair. UK sport says support like this will continue.

:23:46. > :23:54.Time now for the weather. There seems to have been a brief

:23:55. > :23:59.respite from the wind and rain, how long will it last? For the first

:24:00. > :24:03.time, no yellow warning for rain from the Met Office.

:24:04. > :24:09.But there is a yellow warning for ice instead. Good evening. A nice

:24:10. > :24:14.day today. The star of tomorrow is not looking too bad. Mostly dry

:24:15. > :24:20.initially. The next by the front pushes in during the day, with cloud

:24:21. > :24:25.and rain pushing in from the West. This is the big satellite picture.

:24:26. > :24:33.You can see the cloud to the east and west. Mostly dry weather. Not

:24:34. > :24:38.too bad for a winter's day. But you can see the next by the front coming

:24:39. > :24:45.across from America, crossing the Atlantic, warming up and becoming a

:24:46. > :24:51.weaker affair, hitting a ridge of high pressure. Saturday, generally

:24:52. > :24:54.another calm day, some sunshine before the next low`pressure system

:24:55. > :25:02.comes in on Sunday bringing some rain. Here is more detail. You can

:25:03. > :25:10.see the cloud ringing in a few showers. Some nice sunshine. We have

:25:11. > :25:16.been down to Seaton in South East Cornwall. Much calmer than a couple

:25:17. > :25:21.of days ago. We saw some coastal flooding in Seaton. Much less swell

:25:22. > :25:34.on the sea. The waves not too big today. Things are looking calm

:25:35. > :25:40.today, sunshine to end the day. Tonight, one or two showers around

:25:41. > :25:47.particularly along the North Shore and West Cornwall. Those showers

:25:48. > :25:51.will clear. East of and, Dorset, the highest chance of seeing some ice

:25:52. > :25:57.where we see the Met Office yellow warning. Milder further to the

:25:58. > :26:03.west. A fairly chilly start to the date tomorrow for most of us. Dry

:26:04. > :26:06.initially, some sunshine. The weather front comes in, some

:26:07. > :26:13.showers, turning heavier in the afternoon. But not the amount of

:26:14. > :26:22.rain we have seen over recent days. Becoming breezy. Temperatures, into

:26:23. > :26:29.double figures. The winds will pick up. Some rain around for the Isles

:26:30. > :26:43.of Scilly. Some brighter spells in between. Increasingly breezy. These

:26:44. > :26:51.are the times of high water. We are seeing winds from the

:26:52. > :26:54.south`west. Generally good or poor visibility in the rain or showers.

:26:55. > :27:12.If you fancy some surfing: The outlook, tomorrow, generally a

:27:13. > :27:19.bright start, rain pushing in later. The rain clears through, generally

:27:20. > :27:25.drier and brighter for Saturday. But we will see a fairly cold night into

:27:26. > :27:30.Sunday. The chance of frost. Sunday starts bright initially. The next

:27:31. > :27:31.weather front pushes through, turning wetter. Monday, sunshine and

:27:32. > :27:41.showers. Thanks to everyone who has got in

:27:42. > :27:44.touch with us today on Facebook and Twitter. That's all for now. We're

:27:45. > :27:53.back after the ten o'clock news. Goodbye.
