:00:00. > :00:00.from the Atlantic. Thank you very much. That's it from us.
:00:00. > :00:00.# 8 w we can now join the BBC News teams
:00:00. > :00:14.Tonight on BBC London News: Four days of Tube strikes are announced
:00:15. > :00:21.as the row over ticket office closures escalates.
:00:22. > :00:24.We urge the RMT to get back round the table. We will do everything we
:00:25. > :00:29.can to make sure the strike does not happen. If the talks are not
:00:30. > :00:32.successful, action will go ahead. With tensions running high, can an
:00:33. > :00:33.agreement be reached to avert the strikes?
:00:34. > :00:37.Also tonight: More people living near the Thames are told to prepare
:00:38. > :00:40.for flooding, as the waters approach record highs.
:00:41. > :00:49.The mother of a south London doctor who died in a Syrian prison, on her
:00:50. > :00:52.attempts to rescue her son. They knew they wanted to kill him, and
:00:53. > :01:00.they killed him. Plus why the capital seems to be
:01:01. > :01:03.taking on a more Gallic flavour. It is exciting to be here, like a fairy
:01:04. > :01:06.tale. As Sherlock concludes this weekend,
:01:07. > :01:17.how London now has some new destinations on the tourist map.
:01:18. > :01:23.Hello and a very good evening. Tube passengers could be hit by a
:01:24. > :01:26.series of strikes next month after Underground workers voted to walk
:01:27. > :01:32.out over plans to close almost all ticket offices and cut hundreds of
:01:33. > :01:37.jobs. Four days of strike action have been announced. The first two
:01:38. > :01:41.will be on the fourth and fifth of February. Then they'll walk out
:01:42. > :01:51.again the following week on the 11th and 12th. With more details, here's
:01:52. > :01:55.Tom Edwards. Outside Euston station, a
:01:56. > :02:00.demonstration protesting at plans to close all of the Chew's ticket
:02:01. > :02:06.offices, and to cut jobs. This afternoon, the RMT union announced
:02:07. > :02:11.two 48`hour strikes. This is what commuters thought of it. I want more
:02:12. > :02:17.people to be employed, so I fully support them. You think it is the
:02:18. > :02:21.right way of going about it? Management do not change their mind
:02:22. > :02:26.any other way. Do you think it is the right way to make your point if
:02:27. > :02:31.you are a union? I don't think there is an alternative. Putting the
:02:32. > :02:35.public in a situation where they cannot get to work is not fair. They
:02:36. > :02:39.should deal with it in a different manner.
:02:40. > :02:44.The strikes are over some of the most radical changes to the
:02:45. > :02:47.underground in its history. Bosses want to shout all ticket offices and
:02:48. > :02:54.put staff on the platforms and in the stations. In total, 750 station
:02:55. > :02:57.staff will go. As part of the industrial action, unions will tell
:02:58. > :03:02.members not to sell fares at certain times. Have you got any objection to
:03:03. > :03:07.people moving from behind ticket offices on to the gate lines? We
:03:08. > :03:10.have an open along with anything so long as there is agreement. But they
:03:11. > :03:14.cannot come along and given ultimatum. These people have worked
:03:15. > :03:18.for years in the industry and they have been kicked from pillar to
:03:19. > :03:21.post, which is why members and the executive committee have said enough
:03:22. > :03:26.is enough. We are available for talks but if they are not
:03:27. > :03:29.successful, action will go ahead. Part of the plan is a 24`hour
:03:30. > :03:35.service on the weekend on some lines, and the mayor has closed his
:03:36. > :03:40.mind on closing ticket offices. In 2008 he said this. Why don't we keep
:03:41. > :03:46.ticket office is open to give people the sense of safety and security
:03:47. > :03:53.they want. Two years later... No ticket offices will be closed, all
:03:54. > :03:58.right. Now, he and the bosses think the Oyster card has changed how the
:03:59. > :04:01.tube should opt `` operate. Compulsory redundancies will be
:04:02. > :04:06.avoided and all stations will be staffed with the cuts saving ?50
:04:07. > :04:10.million per year, they say. We are going to make the changes and close
:04:11. > :04:15.the ticket offices. We will use technology to help staff carry out
:04:16. > :04:20.their jobs. But clearly, we are not efficient and we have to make
:04:21. > :04:25.ourselves even more efficient. Other unions are also balloting now for
:04:26. > :04:29.strike action. At the moment, compromise looks unlikely. This is
:04:30. > :04:30.just the beginning, and it is the commuter who will be stuck in the
:04:31. > :04:36.middle. So, Tom, how likely is it do you
:04:37. > :04:41.think these strikes will go ahead? You have to remember that the last
:04:42. > :04:46.dispute between these two sides was over reducing ticket office hours.
:04:47. > :04:50.Then, we have the strikes and the changes were still forced through.
:04:51. > :04:55.It would not surprise me if the same thing happens again. Also, normally
:04:56. > :04:59.you get some language, some indication of compromise. I did not
:05:00. > :05:03.get that today. Very hard and serious language from both sides. It
:05:04. > :05:07.would not surprise me if we get these tube strikes.
:05:08. > :05:14.Coming up, we'll bring you a detailed weather forecast later in
:05:15. > :05:18.the programme. Ahead of the Premier League match
:05:19. > :05:23.here tomorrow against Crystal Palace, we speak to former Tottenham
:05:24. > :05:30.Hotspur player now running the show here, manager Tim Sherwood.
:05:31. > :05:33.The flood waters in Surrey and Berkshire are continuing to rise and
:05:34. > :05:38.it's feared that levels could exceed the record highs of 2003. More than
:05:39. > :05:42.40 warnings and alerts remain in place along the Thames this evening,
:05:43. > :05:45.from Reading through to Teddington. That means a difficult weekend ahead
:05:46. > :05:48.for many people living near the river who are already flooded, and a
:05:49. > :06:02.concern for for many others. Sarah Harris is in Windsor.
:06:03. > :06:06.Yes, you will have to take my word for it, but even here in Windsor
:06:07. > :06:11.town centre, the River Thames has burst its banks. On the other side.
:06:12. > :06:16.You can see it from here in daylight. That was despite a
:06:17. > :06:20.multi`million pound flood defence project in the 1990s. Further
:06:21. > :06:26.downstream, where we have spent the day, things have been much, much
:06:27. > :06:30.worse. With water levels continuing to rise, many families there have
:06:31. > :06:38.decided, as we have, that the safest thing to do is to leave. After
:06:39. > :06:41.spending last night in a hotel, it was time for mother and daughter to
:06:42. > :06:48.face what had happened to their home, but getting to it was the
:06:49. > :06:53.first hurdle to overcome. Debbie and Lily had only just finished the
:06:54. > :06:59.refurbishment since the last flood, but things were much worse than they
:07:00. > :07:03.had ever seen before. It is just such a waste of money, waste of
:07:04. > :07:09.time. We have only just come in here after last year. This is even worse.
:07:10. > :07:12.We need to do something next time. It is just ridiculous. We have lost
:07:13. > :07:19.everything. There is nothing left now. I have not even got any shoes.
:07:20. > :07:24.Nothing has been prepared for this, definitely not. We tried to save or
:07:25. > :07:31.we could, but it is nearly a foot in the house. For those families who
:07:32. > :07:36.decided to stay here, the safest way to get about is by boat, and even
:07:37. > :07:42.that has its tricky moments. And there are other challengers, too.
:07:43. > :07:48.Toilets acting up and cats and dogs having to be rescued. Also, some
:07:49. > :07:52.people have lost electricity. We have not but we are lucky so far.
:07:53. > :07:57.But many people have had to get their cars away or have had to leave
:07:58. > :08:02.their homes. What makes it hard to get about is not just water levels
:08:03. > :08:06.but also the current, which makes it hard to keep your balance. And then
:08:07. > :08:10.the water is contaminated, so there are hygiene issues, which is why
:08:11. > :08:16.most people have one of these. Further down the lane, Carl Douglas
:08:17. > :08:19.runs a business making boats. He has had to send home his employees for
:08:20. > :08:26.safety reasons, whilst he assesses the damage, which he says will run
:08:27. > :08:31.into tens of thousands of pounds. The impact will be at least two
:08:32. > :08:35.weeks lost business. We have to work out where the stock has gone, talk
:08:36. > :08:42.to insurers about damage to stock which we could not lift. And for the
:08:43. > :08:50.Browns, too, any kind of clean`up is a long way off and the fear is that
:08:51. > :08:54.the worst may not yet be over. The official advice is that things are
:08:55. > :08:58.likely to get worse before they get better, with water coming down from
:08:59. > :09:05.small rivers and tributaries. Even though it has been fairly dry today,
:09:06. > :09:08.spitting with rain. The water levels are not expected to peak until
:09:09. > :09:11.sometime over the weekend. Well, away from the Thames, people
:09:12. > :09:14.whose homes were flooded when the river Mole broke its banks on
:09:15. > :09:18.Christmas Eve are calling on the Environment Agency for more
:09:19. > :09:29.protection. They say the current flood defences failed to protect
:09:30. > :09:32.their homes. As Tarah Welsh reports. The flooding came more than two
:09:33. > :09:39.weeks ago but the clean`up is far from over. Close to the river, the
:09:40. > :09:45.garden has flooded before, but in 27 years, the water has never reached
:09:46. > :09:50.the house, until now. The water level rose up to here, and we are
:09:51. > :09:54.left with a damp patch here. It felt like I had been violated. I was so
:09:55. > :09:59.upset when I saw the water come through the house, I can't tell you.
:10:00. > :10:02.We have lived here 27 years and it has taken us almost that long to get
:10:03. > :10:09.the house up to the level of completeness. Not a show home, a
:10:10. > :10:12.family home. It upset me no end. Several areas flooded in and around
:10:13. > :10:18.Leatherhead over Christmas and last week and there are concerns about
:10:19. > :10:22.why. We don't know exactly what happened but there seems to be a
:10:23. > :10:29.widely held belief that the controls on the River mole were not enabled
:10:30. > :10:35.to allow the drainage at full speed. I am concerned that this has
:10:36. > :10:41.happened so that we have suffered to save other areas of the catchment.
:10:42. > :10:45.No one at the Environment Agency was available for interviews but it has
:10:46. > :10:50.told us that river flows have been at their highest since 1968. It said
:10:51. > :10:54.there is no way that offences in one area would make another area flood
:10:55. > :11:00.more, but it says it was investigating the recent floods.
:11:01. > :11:03.Today the local MP defended the Environment Agency. It was a fluke.
:11:04. > :11:08.Nothing has happened like it in living memory. We just have to say
:11:09. > :11:12.this is the high water mark, if you will excuse the pun, and make sure
:11:13. > :11:16.we have the defence is therefore this heightened level that we have
:11:17. > :11:22.never had before. You believe everything was in place and nothing
:11:23. > :11:26.could have been done. Nothing is absolute. We will be going back to
:11:27. > :11:28.learn from this. In the meantime, it is local people left picking up the
:11:29. > :11:32.pieces. The bodies of two children and a
:11:33. > :11:35.woman have been found in a house in Brent. The 33`year`old woman and two
:11:36. > :11:43.boys, one aged five and the other seven months old, were found
:11:44. > :11:47.yesterday. Chris Rogers reports. It does not bear thinking about. We
:11:48. > :11:53.now understand it was the husband that arrived at his flat last night,
:11:54. > :11:56.where he discovered his wife and two children dying from their injuries.
:11:57. > :12:00.He called the London Ambulance Service but by the time the police
:12:01. > :12:06.arrived the ambulance crews had lost their battle to save the lives of
:12:07. > :12:09.his family. His youngest was a seven`month`old boy. His other child
:12:10. > :12:14.was five years old and his wife was 33. Understand they are from Sri
:12:15. > :12:19.Lanka and have lifted for 12 months. While the neighbours did not know
:12:20. > :12:23.them well, they often joined them on walks to school and described them
:12:24. > :12:27.as a happy, normal family. It is one of those things you cannot
:12:28. > :12:32.comprehend, that something can happen like this. It leaves you
:12:33. > :12:36.feeling very numb, very cold. I got up to Sainsbury is and I was
:12:37. > :12:42.literally in tears, and yet I don't even know the people that well. I
:12:43. > :12:46.was pretty shaken up by what I heard. You had no inkling there was
:12:47. > :12:50.something wrong, that she was depressed, that anything like this
:12:51. > :12:54.could have happened? She probably could have been depressed but been
:12:55. > :13:00.good enough to cover it up. She would be smiling and said hello.
:13:01. > :13:04.That Labour did not want to be identified. Police are treating this
:13:05. > :13:08.as a murder in this `` investigation of the seven`month`old baby and the
:13:09. > :13:11.five`year`old boy, but they are not treating the death of the mother as
:13:12. > :13:20.suspicious and are not searching for anyone else in connection with their
:13:21. > :13:24.deaths. The mother of a doctor from south London who died in a Syrian
:13:25. > :13:26.prison last month has spoken of what she called her failure to save her
:13:27. > :13:29.son. Fatima Khan spent five months in the
:13:30. > :13:31.country trying to free Abbas, after he was arrested in a
:13:32. > :13:37.rebel`controlled area in November 2012. Just days before he was due to
:13:38. > :13:40.be released, he died. And as Jenny Hill reports, Fatima worries she'll
:13:41. > :13:47.never learn the full story of what happened to him.
:13:48. > :13:54.Even as a child, his mother told us, Abbas Khan like to help others. Why
:13:55. > :13:57.was he so compelled to go to Syria? Because it was everywhere on the
:13:58. > :14:03.internet and in the news that people were dying, no doctors, no medicine.
:14:04. > :14:07.He thought, it is my profession. Instead of giving money I should
:14:08. > :14:11.give my services. Once he disappeared, you decided to go and
:14:12. > :14:19.try and find him in Syria. It is such a dangerous place. Why did you
:14:20. > :14:25.feel you had to go? He's my son. I said to my other children and to
:14:26. > :14:31.myself that if I die, I will die for my son, so it is nothing strange.
:14:32. > :14:35.Any mother would do. When you found him, can you describe the
:14:36. > :14:45.circumstances? When they brought him, they took me to a court of
:14:46. > :14:49.terrorism. Suddenly I felt that somebody is mine in there, and I
:14:50. > :14:54.don't know how I got up and how I can help him. He was a skeleton and
:14:55. > :14:58.he was crying. He had tears and he said, money, I am sorry, take me
:14:59. > :15:04.from here, mummy. I said, don't worry, you will be released in a few
:15:05. > :15:09.days. I was checking, his hands were full of black marks as if electric
:15:10. > :15:13.shocks were given. They screwed, drilled into his mail, and his legs
:15:14. > :15:18.were full of cigarette marks. They used to beat him up for no reason,
:15:19. > :15:25.putting the eye band on his eyes. What for? Because he helped women
:15:26. > :15:29.and children. They said, no, no, you help the opposition. He did not. He
:15:30. > :15:38.said, mummy, I swear I did not help anybody, only women and children.
:15:39. > :15:45.You have done so much to try and get him released. You have done so much
:15:46. > :15:49.to try to free your son. It is a shock that they killed him. It is
:15:50. > :15:54.because it came in media and British government didn't do anything. They
:15:55. > :16:00.didn't want to do anything. When will the last time you saw him? The
:16:01. > :16:06.25th of November. At this point you thought he was coming home. Yes. He
:16:07. > :16:09.said, this Christmas I want in London. Last Christmas I was in
:16:10. > :16:15.prison, but this Christmas I want in London. I said, as usual, I will
:16:16. > :16:19.cook Christmas dinner. The Syrian government claim he took his life in
:16:20. > :16:25.prison but Fatima says a government official told her something
:16:26. > :16:30.different. He said, yes, we killed your son. He knew, he was not
:16:31. > :16:34.surprised. I said, why? He said, go back to Britain and tell your
:16:35. > :16:39.British Government that we killed a British man. Tell your government,
:16:40. > :16:53.don't send any more. So they knew. And they killed him. The mother is
:16:54. > :16:59.the loser. I failed to save my son. What can I do?
:17:00. > :17:05.That was Fatima Khan, talking to Jenny Hill. In a statement, the
:17:06. > :17:09.Foreign Office say they consistently sought access to Dr Khan and pressed
:17:10. > :17:13.for his position to be reviewed, but were turned down by the Syrians.
:17:14. > :17:20.They say they will continue to support his family who have shown
:17:21. > :17:23.great courage and fortitude. Up to 400,000 French citizens now live in
:17:24. > :17:29.London, which is more than the population of French cities like
:17:30. > :17:35.Bordeaux or Nice. With plans for a new French school in Wembley, we
:17:36. > :17:42.report on the growing French love affair with our capital. An
:17:43. > :17:46.unfurnished house. Marie`Ann and her family will soon move from Paris to
:17:47. > :17:52.London as her husband's company needs them to relocate. They are
:17:53. > :17:57.looking to buy a multi` multimillion pound property in Kensington
:17:58. > :18:02.Chelsea. He's in the financial market. His company want him to be
:18:03. > :18:06.in London. We are very pleased to be in London. Obviously we, French
:18:07. > :18:10.people, have many problems with the tax ` all the taxes increases a lot,
:18:11. > :18:16.every day and we don't know if it will stop. According to this French
:18:17. > :18:21.estate agent the family are not the only wealthy French people looking
:18:22. > :18:26.to move thasmt have opened an office in Fulham to deal with the demand.
:18:27. > :18:33.It is up the road from a French Bakers and green grocers. Why do
:18:34. > :18:37.your customers want to move? The tax bracket in Paris is very high. They
:18:38. > :18:42.are keen to get out of that and pay less tax. It is a financial
:18:43. > :18:47.decision? Yes. Why are more French people moving to the capital? Is it
:18:48. > :18:52.a way of avoiding the taxman, or is there more to it than that? David, a
:18:53. > :18:56.partner with a wealth management company in the City believes it is
:18:57. > :19:01.easier for all French people to make money here. What I can say to you is
:19:02. > :19:06.that I am seeing this every week. Yes, that's the reality. Why is
:19:07. > :19:10.that? Why is that ` I think number one reason is ease of doing
:19:11. > :19:15.business. You know, the business culture.
:19:16. > :19:22.And back in Fulham. Some French ex`pats say it is not just the welty
:19:23. > :19:27.who are feeling victims of a general malice on the continent. It is more
:19:28. > :19:32.the spirit in France at the moment ` the feelingvy got is very low, you
:19:33. > :19:36.know? `` the feeling I have got is very low, you know. What is going to
:19:37. > :19:41.happen tomorrow. Per if ect for French people `` perfect for French
:19:42. > :19:44.people. As they look for their perfect new home, it is predicted
:19:45. > :19:51.many more will make the move here to London in the future.
:19:52. > :19:56.OK, let's get the sport round`up now with Sara Orchard. Plenty of news
:19:57. > :20:00.coming out of White Hart Lane today. Starting with the confirmation that
:20:01. > :20:06.England striker Jermain Defoe is leaving Tottenham to join Toronto
:20:07. > :20:11.FC. The 31`year`old has signed a four`and`a`half year contact. He
:20:12. > :20:16.will join up to them until March, leaving himming on loan at Spurs
:20:17. > :20:21.until February. Tim Sherwood has been speaking to the BBC about his
:20:22. > :20:23.ambitions for the club. They play Crystal Palace tomorrow in the
:20:24. > :20:27.Premier League ` a place where he has enjoyed a good record so far. In
:20:28. > :20:31.the Premier League Tim Sherwood's Tottenham are unbeaten, with ten
:20:32. > :20:36.points from his four games in charge. Despite last week's loss to
:20:37. > :20:41.Arsenal, the 44`year`old is growing into the role. I am getting used to
:20:42. > :20:45.it now. It is obviously a real pleasure and privilege to manage
:20:46. > :20:52.this football club. It is very close to my heart. I played here. I am
:20:53. > :20:56.doing the best of my job. Tottenham have had eight managers in the last
:20:57. > :21:00.ten years. By some Premier League standards that is not too bad. It is
:21:01. > :21:03.no surprise when Tim Sherwood was offered the job he refused a
:21:04. > :21:09.six`month contract, instead signing up for a year`and`a`half. I was not
:21:10. > :21:12.really prepared to go and take a job what I thought was going to be a
:21:13. > :21:15.five`minute job. We came to the conclusion that 18 months was
:21:16. > :21:20.probably fair. I wasn't there to stand up and demand four or five
:21:21. > :21:23.years, for someone who is untried as a manager. I felt that was a good
:21:24. > :21:29.period of time for me to really prove I can do the job. Sherwood's
:21:30. > :21:35.appointment is still viewed as a gamble. He made 93 appearances for
:21:36. > :21:45.Spurs and won three England caps. He took up coaching under Redknapp in 2
:21:46. > :21:49.oh 008. He `` 2008. Andre did a good job at this
:21:50. > :21:52.football club. I see the game differently. I like attacking
:21:53. > :21:56.players to play in attacking areas of the field. I like defenders to be
:21:57. > :22:00.responsible at the right times. Arsenal and Man City for me are the
:22:01. > :22:05.two best teams in the division at the moment. We are not too far away
:22:06. > :22:10.from being at the same level. To get to those levels results will need to
:22:11. > :22:14.come fast for Sherwood. He has his own hopes for where Tottenham will
:22:15. > :22:19.be in 18 months' time. Hopefully we're in the champion's league and
:22:20. > :22:27.we are flying and they are enjoying a nice new era. That is under a
:22:28. > :22:31.manager called Tim Sherwood. If you want to hear more of that interview
:22:32. > :22:34.with Tim Sherwood, you can see it tomorrow on Football Focus on BBC
:22:35. > :22:38.One from mid`day. On to tennis and the draw was made
:22:39. > :22:42.earlier today for the Australian Open, which starts on Monday.
:22:43. > :22:46.British number one, Wimbledon's Laura Robson has been drawn against
:22:47. > :22:50.18th seed Kirsten Flipkens. Robson has been struggling with a wrist
:22:51. > :22:54.injury since the New Year, but has been practicing in Melbourne and is
:22:55. > :22:57.expected to be fit to face her Belgium opponent. Good luck to
:22:58. > :23:04.Laura. That is all the sport. Back to you. Thank you.
:23:05. > :23:09.Now, it is not only been a huge hit with audiences at home, but the
:23:10. > :23:14.latest TV series Sherwood `` Sherlock which concludes this
:23:15. > :23:18.weekend has led to some corners of the capital becoming popular with
:23:19. > :23:25.sightseers from around the world. It is not Baker Street. But this cafe
:23:26. > :23:27.in Euston is now attracting a lot of attention, from some interesting
:23:28. > :23:34.people. And the reason ` well it is
:23:35. > :23:43.elementary. This is the cafe used in the BBC's Sherlock series.
:23:44. > :23:49.At the cafe today, we found Catrina, from Russia, who has been a Sherlock
:23:50. > :23:56.fan since she was 13. He's very clever. He's not very emotional.
:23:57. > :24:01.You like that? I like out of emotions and I like clever people,
:24:02. > :24:06.like smart people. Then there was Paul from Argentina who is only 18
:24:07. > :24:13.years old. Now the hat is not quite right, is it? No, but this was
:24:14. > :24:19.cheaper than the original one, the one that Sherlock wears. ?35 is
:24:20. > :24:27.quite expensive. Of course it is all a bit distracting from the real home
:24:28. > :24:33.of Sherlock Holmes on Baker Street, given you can call it that, given he
:24:34. > :24:37.is fictional. The cafe owner is not complaining. Our custom consists of
:24:38. > :24:42.a lot of young people, young girls, mainly. There wasn't any sign of the
:24:43. > :24:45.stars today. Only a few coateds that might perhaps have been suitable for
:24:46. > :24:50.a detective. And what all the fans want to know,
:24:51. > :24:55.of course, is will there be another series?
:24:56. > :25:00.Obviously the stars are busy and the writers are busy. We are looking at
:25:01. > :25:07.diaries and hoping they can meet up again, yes. What it is like to be in
:25:08. > :25:11.the cafe? You feel you are part of the scene. You are making it happen.
:25:12. > :25:17.This is the best thing ever in the new Sherlock series. So a new London
:25:18. > :25:24.landmark is born ` it seems and its fame may only spread.
:25:25. > :25:30.Let's get a check now on the weekend weather with Sara. Many areas hoping
:25:31. > :25:33.for no more rain, I imagine. That is right. We have more moving towards
:25:34. > :25:39.us this evening. We had some beautiful pictures sent
:25:40. > :25:45.to us from this morning. Now, this is just outside Marlow ` Bourne End.
:25:46. > :25:50.A lot of mist and fog around. We have a drier weekend in prospect. We
:25:51. > :25:53.have to get through this evening. A beautiful day for tomorrow. It will
:25:54. > :25:58.be cold tomorrow night into Sunday. Things will cloud up on Sunday. You
:25:59. > :26:03.will then have more rain for Sunday evening. Here is a frontal system
:26:04. > :26:07.out to the west of the UK. It is patchy but moving towards us as we
:26:08. > :26:11.go to this evening. We have some lingering showers around. That
:26:12. > :26:14.patchy rain comes in. It maybe looks heavier around these graphics than
:26:15. > :26:18.it will be. It is tending to die off as it moves towards the east. Out
:26:19. > :26:22.towards the north`west, where the cloud clears, we could see a frost
:26:23. > :26:26.there. Elsewhere, temperatures milder than the night that we had
:26:27. > :26:30.last night. Tomorrow morning cloud first thing. Lingering patchy rain.
:26:31. > :26:34.It clears nicely. As I say, a beautiful day in prospect for you
:26:35. > :26:38.tomorrow. Plenty of sunshine around. Lovely and dry. It will feel that
:26:39. > :26:44.bit colder though than it has been in recent days. Temperatures not
:26:45. > :26:50.quite into double figures. As I say, that will lead us into a
:26:51. > :26:54.cold night tomorrow night. A sharp frost around Sunday. Also, as you
:26:55. > :26:59.can see here, some mist and fog developing through the early hours
:27:00. > :27:03.of Sunday morning. Temperatures in the countryside lower than that. A
:27:04. > :27:07.chilly start. Then it will be a chilly day. We will keep a bit of
:27:08. > :27:11.cloud around. Mist and fog in the morning will lift to low cloud. Bits
:27:12. > :27:14.and pieces of rain will move towards us as we go to the morning. Trying
:27:15. > :27:19.to make their way in, because we have this frontal system from the
:27:20. > :27:24.west. This will give us another five or ten millimetres worth of rain as
:27:25. > :27:28.we go into Monday. A beautiful weekend in prospect. It looks like
:27:29. > :27:33.we will stay unsettled for the start of the new working week N the mean
:27:34. > :27:35.time, a beautiful day for tomorrow. That is good news. Thank you very
:27:36. > :27:39.much. And that's it for now. Thanks very
:27:40. > :27:42.much for joining us. More news at 10pm, of course and plenty more on
:27:43. > :27:48.our website. From me and the team, do have a lovely weekend. Goodbye.
