:00:00. > 3:59:59That's all from us. Don't forget there's a first look at the papers
:00:00. > :03:46.over on the BBC News I say every single one is a saint?
:03:47. > :03:50.No, I cannot. The vast majority do a fantastic job. These are trying
:03:51. > :03:54.times for the police force. Overall crime may be coming down. The coming
:03:55. > :04:00.months will see more scrutiny. There's a public inquiry into the
:04:01. > :04:05.Met around the corner. A failure by the Crown Prosecution
:04:06. > :04:09.Service to comply with a basic administrative process means a man
:04:10. > :04:16.convicted of being a Mafia boss in Italy can stay in London. Seen here
:04:17. > :04:20.on the right, he has been living in Uxbridge for 20 years. The CPS
:04:21. > :04:27.failed to process the right paper, so he is now free. Standards in
:04:28. > :04:33.London's emergency and maternity services have improved. The levels
:04:34. > :04:34.of care depend where you live. New targets were introduced after a
:04:35. > :04:45.damning report two years ago. Many mothers will tell you the
:04:46. > :04:49.happiness they get from their baby makes the pain of childbirth worth
:04:50. > :04:55.it. The experience they get from a hospital can vary. I felt very
:04:56. > :05:00.privileged to have had what I had from the consultants down to the
:05:01. > :05:04.midwife. We We were told there was no bed or obstetrician. London's
:05:05. > :05:09.maternal death rate is higher than the rest of the UK. Today's data
:05:10. > :05:14.shows things are improving. Not one hospital in London has a consultant
:05:15. > :05:18.on its labour ward all of the time. We notice much, much less cover and
:05:19. > :05:23.care during the weekend and overnight it was shocking at times.
:05:24. > :05:28.Hospitals had to assess themselves on how care was provided on weekdays
:05:29. > :05:33.and weekends, when you have a 10% higher risk of dying.
:05:34. > :05:38.In almost every London hospital you can expect there to be an
:05:39. > :05:42.experienced doctor in A, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You'll get
:05:43. > :05:47.that here at the Royal London. Come here to have a baby and you will not
:05:48. > :05:54.necessarily get one`to`one care from a midwife. UCLH did meet that
:05:55. > :05:58.target. When it comes to emergency surgery, if you come here during the
:05:59. > :06:02.week, you are likely to see a consulant within 12 hours. At the
:06:03. > :06:05.weekend, you are not. We know there is variation. Some of the standards
:06:06. > :06:10.are difficult to meet. What we know and what I am very encouraged by is
:06:11. > :06:14.organisations, teams of doctors, teams of nurses have at least begun
:06:15. > :06:19.to change the way they work in order to ensure there is that consistency
:06:20. > :06:22.of clinical practise. So, there is progress in hospitals, but it still
:06:23. > :06:31.depends on when and where you go. An engine is thought to have blown
:06:32. > :06:37.up on an airliner seconds before it was due to leave London's City
:06:38. > :06:40.airport this afternoon. Passengers were evacuated. Four people suffered
:06:41. > :06:45.minor injuries. If you are watching a few minutes
:06:46. > :06:48.ago, I can definitely hand you over to Elizabeth now for the weather.
:06:49. > :06:55.It will be a chilly night for many of us. It will stay dry.
:06:56. > :07:02.Temperatures will hold in the towns at four to five Celsius. Away from
:07:03. > :07:07.the town centres, temperatures could drop for a touch of frost. Today is
:07:08. > :07:12.better than today. It should stay dry, well most places will. We could
:07:13. > :07:16.see some showers spring up towards north`western areas of town as we
:07:17. > :07:20.head into tomorrow afternoon. Milder air from the south`east. That will
:07:21. > :07:24.give a little boost to the temperatures. It will get milder
:07:25. > :07:29.this weekend as well.ly leave you now with the sum `` I will leave you
:07:30. > :07:31.now with the summary for the weekend weather. Now the national forecast
:07:32. > :07:33.with weather. Now the national forecast
:07:34. > :07:44.with Nick Miller. Hello, as winter becomes spring, the
:07:45. > :07:47.atmosphere contains more energy. The shower clouds grow taller. If
:07:48. > :07:52.conditions are right, you get thunder storms. There have been some
:07:53. > :07:58.today. Bob took this picture near London this afternoon. The spring
:07:59. > :08:03.flowers will appreciate the re turn return of warmth. Until then big
:08:04. > :08:07.showers to come, pushing in across south-west England - some hail and
:08:08. > :08:12.thunder. Sleet and snow on to the top of the moors.
:08:13. > :08:15.From Norfolk to coastal England into Northern Ireland. Elsewhere, one or
:08:16. > :08:16.two showers around.
