:20:38. > :20:41.much better for tomorrow, which is the first day. Good evening to you.
:20:42. > :20:44.It's been pretty miserable today. More cloud and rain around than we

:20:49. > :20:52.beginning to clear from the more western parts of Cornwall and
:20:53. > :20:57.hopefully, tomorrow is a largely dry day. Risk of a shower or Frhday
:20:58. > :21:01.Risk of a shower heading into the weekend. That's tomorrow's weather,
:21:02. > :21:05.mainly fine, hazy sunshine. The biggest difference ` it will feel
:21:06. > :21:09.warmer. Some parts of the south`west today have got no more than 10 or 11
:21:10. > :21:14.degrees. That's pretty low for the month of June. A look at thd show to
:21:15. > :21:18.start with. For tomorrow, a fine day, 16, 17 degrees, the top
:21:19. > :21:22.temperature. On Friday, even warmer. But quite a brisk south`east wind.
:21:23. > :21:29.We may see showers early in the day. It brightens up in the afternoon.
:21:30. > :21:32.The greatest threat of showdrs is on Saturday, perhaps in the morning.
:21:33. > :21:36.Things improve into the aftdrnoon. Now, low pressure is out here to the
:21:37. > :21:39.west. This is the dominant feature as we head towards the end of the
:21:40. > :21:43.week and into the weekend. Ht's that area of low pressure that draws up
:21:44. > :21:46.some warmth from Spain and Portugal. That's the reason for the hhgher
:21:47. > :21:49.temperatures. We could have some of the highest temperatures we've seen
:21:50. > :21:54.so far this year on Friday. The low pressure is there on Friday and into
:21:55. > :21:57.Saturday, generating some showers. We will have to keep a closd eye on
:21:58. > :22:01.those. For the immediate future the rain that we have now, which has
:22:02. > :22:05.been troublesome, is beginnhng to move away. It's taking its time
:22:06. > :22:09.Later this evening, there's the risk of showery outbreaks of rain, until
:22:10. > :22:25.after midnight, before it all clears. Later in the night, it turns
:22:26. > :22:28.Cilicy. Over`` it churns chhlly `` it turns chilly.
:22:29. > :22:33.It's a cold start to the dax tomorrow, but it should be ` fine
:22:34. > :22:37.day. Patchy cloud will come and go. It's not going to be wall`to`wall
:22:38. > :22:43.sunshine. High level cloud hnto the far west. Still dry for west
:22:44. > :22:48.Cornwall. For most of us it's a better day. A top figure of 17,
:22:49. > :22:52.possibly 18, degrees. For the Isles of Scilly, after sunshine in the
:22:53. > :22:56.morning, it will cloud over. High`level cloud coming in. Briefly
:22:57. > :23:14.some hazy sunshine. The bredze picks up here too.
:23:15. > :23:19.There's the coastal waters forecast. The winds are from the south or
:23:20. > :23:29.south`east. The outlook is for showers `s we
:23:30. > :23:34.head into the weekend. Saturday we are a bit concerned. We havd an
:23:35. > :23:37.early warning from the Met Office about potentially very heavx showers
:23:38. > :23:41.forming on Saturday. Stay ttned to the forecast, of course. Have a good
:23:42. > :23:44.evening. Thank goodness you're always there
:23:45. > :23:51.when the technology fails us, once again. Now back to that story about
:23:52. > :23:56.the unusual book in Exeter. Normally locked away, today the
:23:57. > :24:03.Exeter Book was unbound and among the first to marvel at its
:24:04. > :24:07.treasures, a Canadian student. This is the book. This is probably our
:24:08. > :24:13.best known and probably our most important holding in the cathedral
:24:14. > :24:19.library. It was donated by Dxeter's first bishop. It's an anthology of
:24:20. > :24:23.poems in old English. There are only four of such anthologies in the
:24:24. > :24:29.world. This is probably the oldest of them. So,if you like, thhs is the
:24:30. > :24:34.oldest book of English literature in existence. I think it's fantastic.
:24:35. > :24:36.It's really a dream come trte for me to see it. I never expected I would
:24:37. > :24:53.get this opportunity. On this page, as it happens, you can
:24:54. > :24:58.see some Runic There are letters. No illustrations, no colours or titles
:24:59. > :25:03.to the poems or, for that m`tter, the 96 Anglo`Saxon riddles, some of
:25:04. > :25:07.which feature on the High Street sculpturement The contents of this
:25:08. > :25:11.book are not found anywhere else. If this book were lost between a
:25:12. > :25:17.quarter and a third of all Dnglish poetry known would be unknown. So,
:25:18. > :25:21.it's very important indeed. This summer, the Exeter Book will be on
:25:22. > :25:30.show the first Wednesday afternoon of the month.
:25:31. > :25:33.Now schools are used to eagdrly anticipating results, but for one in
:25:34. > :25:37.Plymouth, it's nothing to do with exams. Prince Rock Primary has made
:25:38. > :25:44.it to the short list for a national award, which could see it crowned
:25:45. > :25:48.Primary School of the Year. I'm Bailey. And we're going to show
