That's all from the BBC News at Six, so it's goodbye from me and on | :00:00. | 3:59:59 | |
BBC One we now join the BBC's news teams where xou are. | :00:00. | :00:13. | |
The gang jailed for forcing more than a hundred women into a life | :00:14. | :00:17. | |
of prostitution, trafficked from Eastern Europe to work | :00:18. | :00:19. | |
It is hugely exploitative. Behind each of these cases is exportation. | :00:20. | :00:26. | |
The Met says it's the largest trafficking casd they've | :00:27. | :00:28. | |
Surpassing their 2007 peak, house prices in the capital rise by more | :00:29. | :00:33. | |
After this firearms officer wins a race and sex discrimination case, | :00:34. | :00:37. | |
now calls for an investigathon at Scotland Yard. | :00:38. | :00:41. | |
We talk to musician Will.i.`m about his love of technologx | :00:42. | :00:45. | |
as he opens his first ever exhibition. | :00:46. | :00:52. | |
All of this art, it is for the community. I want to be part of all | :00:53. | :01:00. | |
of this wonderful activity that is happening here at the Barbican. | :01:01. | :01:10. | |
A gang has been sentenced to a total of 55 years in what | :01:11. | :01:14. | |
Scotland Yard has described as the largest trafficking case it's | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
At least 120 women were brotght from Eastern Europe to work | :01:18. | :01:24. | |
Today the judge said the gang had made hundreds of thousands | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
Figures from the Met show the number of people being trafficked | :01:29. | :01:32. | |
But many believe the real numbers could be much higher. | :01:33. | :01:40. | |
He was the ruthless boss of a gang that kept women as sex slavds. Today | :01:41. | :01:55. | |
he was locked up for 12 years. His accomplice was sentenced to ten | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
years. Their money`laundering or five years. This man watch them go | :02:00. | :02:07. | |
down. His girlfriend was ond of their victims. I wish they could | :02:08. | :02:15. | |
have got a life sentence. They've taken people's lives away. The | :02:16. | :02:28. | |
majority of them are really poor. They recruited women by prolising | :02:29. | :02:34. | |
them a better life. They got the opposite. We are talking about the | :02:35. | :02:40. | |
extreme end of sex, unprotected and dangerous sex acts. That is probably | :02:41. | :02:44. | |
as much as we want to talk `bout at the moment. It's hugely | :02:45. | :02:47. | |
exploitative, and behind each one of these jobs is a wake of hum`n misery | :02:48. | :02:54. | |
and explication. Some of thd women were forced to have sex with up to | :02:55. | :02:58. | |
20 minute day. Clients pay between 30 and ?100. Most of that money went | :02:59. | :03:05. | |
to the gang and to fund his lifestyle he drove a convertible | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
Mercedes. He lived in a luxtry flat on Canary Wharf. Because thhs was an | :03:10. | :03:12. | |
organised operation, run from a house in a leafy street. A lakeshift | :03:13. | :03:18. | |
call centre would send clients to one of 40 brothels across the | :03:19. | :03:22. | |
capital. Women have passports taken away and were controlled with | :03:23. | :03:26. | |
violence and threats. Many `re still suffering, mentally and physically. | :03:27. | :03:32. | |
They are not alone. This wolan was trafficked from Africa by a | :03:33. | :03:36. | |
different gang. Her family would be threatened if she refused sdx and | :03:37. | :03:39. | |
she didn't go out side the brothel for a year. She started bringing in | :03:40. | :03:45. | |
men every day. Sometimes I would try to talk to the client and plead with | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
them, but they would report it to the lady and she would beat me up. | :03:49. | :03:51. | |
You would do anything a clidnt wanted, anything. It was hard. I can | :03:52. | :04:03. | |
say I went through hell. Evdn now, when I'm sleeping, I dream `bout | :04:04. | :04:11. | |
that incident. Suddenly, I wake up. That is still a reality for people | :04:12. | :04:18. | |
in this city now. Because of its nature, it's a hidden crime and | :04:19. | :04:21. | |
often difficult to find people that are victims of this crime. Tonight, | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
a criminal gang is behind b`rs. You know there are more out there | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
keeping women trapped in a life they can't escape. Coming down and going | :04:30. | :04:40. | |
back up, I'm live at Battersea Power Station, where the chimneys of one | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
of London's greatest landmarks are being rebuilt. | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
House prices in the capital have risen | :04:49. | :04:50. | |
Latest figures from the Nathonwide show the average value of a home | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
in London now tops ?400,000 for the first time. | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
Property prices here have increased by more than 25% in the past year. | :05:00. | :05:02. | |
The BBC's economics correspondent Simon Jack reports. | :05:03. | :05:12. | |
According to the UK's second`biggest lender, house prices accelerated | :05:13. | :05:19. | |
again in June. Once again, there were massive regional differences. | :05:20. | :05:22. | |
If we look at price rises shnce last year, the lowest was in Scotland, | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
which saw 5.4% growth. In the south`west, prices rose 98%. That | :05:28. | :05:32. | |
was overshadowed by a whopphng 5.8% rise in London. It is definhtely the | :05:33. | :05:38. | |
case that the gap between London and the rest of the UK has never been | :05:39. | :05:42. | |
wider. If you look outside of London, prices are basicallx half | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
what they are in the capital. So what? Does it matter that house | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
prices are double the national average? The Bank of England said an | :05:51. | :05:54. | |
overheating housing market was the number one threat to the UK economy | :05:55. | :05:59. | |
and a 26% rise sounds white hot So, are things getting dangerous? Even | :06:00. | :06:04. | |
before these figures came ott, the Bank of England was concerndd enough | :06:05. | :06:10. | |
the mortgages, relative to hncomes. The Bank of England have bedn very | :06:11. | :06:14. | |
keen to emphasise they are not targeting house prices per se, they | :06:15. | :06:16. | |
are worried about levels of household debt. That complicates | :06:17. | :06:20. | |
matters for them, because they have to formulate a policy for the | :06:21. | :06:23. | |
country as a whole and therd is only one part of the market, an hsolated | :06:24. | :06:27. | |
part, London, showing this rapid growth. Two bedrooms? I don't think | :06:28. | :06:35. | |
we could afford three. Wherd do we go from here? The number of | :06:36. | :06:38. | |
mortgages approved have acttally been falling and there is some | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
evidence that even London btyers are beginning to bolt at high prices. | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
We've noticed more propertids coming on the market, prices are softer, | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
not so much confidence of t`king offers forward. Less interest, few | :06:53. | :06:56. | |
of us. As a result, more balance between supply and demand than we | :06:57. | :07:02. | |
have seen for some time. Wotld`be buyers and the bank of Engl`nd hope | :07:03. | :07:06. | |
that anecdotal evidence shows up in the numbers in the months to come. | :07:07. | :07:13. | |
Lets talk to Lucien Cook from Savills, who joins me now. Xou have | :07:14. | :07:18. | |
more than 20 years experience. It's not new, is it, London being more | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
expensive? The gap has never been wider? That's absolutely right. | :07:23. | :07:30. | |
London has, for a long period, been above the national average. Over the | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
course of the cycle, the extent to which it is high varies and it is up | :07:36. | :07:38. | |
by high level. That reflects the fact that London has been | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
outperforming the UK for a period of nine years. Surpassing the 2007 peak | :07:44. | :07:49. | |
is quite something. Some economists are warning of a damaging correction | :07:50. | :07:52. | |
at some point in the next fdw years, and that is growing? Do you agree? | :07:53. | :07:58. | |
House prices in London 30% `bove what they were in 2007, the third | :07:59. | :08:04. | |
quarter of 2007. Certainly, what you will see as levels of house price | :08:05. | :08:08. | |
growth slow. There are indications that already. Have seen the number | :08:09. | :08:13. | |
of new buyer inquiries fall. At a national level, we have seen the | :08:14. | :08:16. | |
number of mortgage approvals fall. Thirdly, in some of cod's indices, | :08:17. | :08:25. | |
we have seen a slowing in price growth. `` Savills's. Most people | :08:26. | :08:31. | |
are not in those sort of prhme markets, if you like. We know that | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
wages are in no way keeping up with property prices. Families that | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
already own property but ard perhaps looking to upsize, what abott them? | :08:41. | :08:45. | |
One of the things we have sden is, in the last three years, thd | :08:46. | :08:48. | |
difference between buying a two bedroom property, and the additional | :08:49. | :08:53. | |
cost of going to a three`bedroom property, that has gone frol | :08:54. | :08:58. | |
?104,000, up to ?134,000. Those are the forgotten people in the housing | :08:59. | :09:04. | |
market. A lot of people concentrate on first`time buyers. It's become | :09:05. | :09:07. | |
difficult for people to stax in the same area and upsize to a f`mily | :09:08. | :09:12. | |
home that meets their need. They need to look to cheaper parts of | :09:13. | :09:15. | |
London, and what that tends to do is spread price growth across ` wide | :09:16. | :09:17. | |
area. An employment tribunal has | :09:18. | :09:19. | |
criticised the Metropolitan Police for telling staff to delete internal | :09:20. | :09:26. | |
findings of discrimination. The allegation emerged | :09:27. | :09:28. | |
during a hearing which ruled that a firearms officer had been t`rgeted | :09:29. | :09:30. | |
because she was black and a woman. Scotland Yard says it will review | :09:31. | :09:33. | |
the findings, while the Mayor, Boris Johnson, said there were, whthout | :09:34. | :09:38. | |
doubt, lessons to be learned. Here's our Home Affairs | :09:39. | :09:40. | |
Correspondent, Guy Smith. She was publicised as a member of an | :09:41. | :09:53. | |
elite Scotland Yard unit, hdlping keep Londoners safe during the | :09:54. | :09:57. | |
Olympics. A positive image of reassurance and diversity. But, | :09:58. | :10:01. | |
behind`the`scenes, the storx was very different. For almost ` year, | :10:02. | :10:06. | |
PC Carol Howard was being shngled out and targeted by her lind | :10:07. | :10:11. | |
manager, Acting Inspector D`vid Kelly. An employment tribun`l found | :10:12. | :10:13. | |
his management style was overbearing, intrusive and | :10:14. | :10:19. | |
unreasonable. Someone who engaged in conduct designed to undermine, | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
discredit and belittle her. Today, her lawyer gave a flavour of what he | :10:25. | :10:30. | |
was doing. She was absent for one day on sickness and he sent a police | :10:31. | :10:34. | |
car around to check up on hdr, which he didn't do for anybody else. He | :10:35. | :10:39. | |
monitored her Facebook when he was away from work one day. He blocked | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
her application to leave thd department, leave his. I was | :10:44. | :10:48. | |
dismayed to read the account this morning... London's Mayor, hn charge | :10:49. | :10:54. | |
of holding The Met to account, promised to look into the c`se. No | :10:55. | :10:57. | |
doubt there are lessons to be learned. What is more interdsting is | :10:58. | :11:02. | |
that there was a deliberate attempt to cover up an internal report that | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
found PC Howard had, in fact, been disconnected against. The ddtective | :11:08. | :11:12. | |
Sergeant who wrote the report was asked to delete any references to | :11:13. | :11:16. | |
racism and sexism. The tribtnal said they were very concerned th`t this | :11:17. | :11:24. | |
might have been misleading. BBC London previously obtained figures | :11:25. | :11:26. | |
about allegations of racism within The Met. Over six years, thd number | :11:27. | :11:32. | |
of complaints almost tripled. But the Black Police Association said | :11:33. | :11:36. | |
this latest case was worrying. I'm absolutely appalled and shocked | :11:37. | :11:42. | |
that, in 2014, we can still have cases of direct the nation. The | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
question now is what future this officer has in The Met. Meanwhile, | :11:47. | :11:51. | |
Scotland Yard said that it was very disappointed with the judgelent and | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
it had never been part of policy to delete allegations of discrhmination | :11:56. | :11:57. | |
and a full review was being conducted. | :11:58. | :12:04. | |
A man has been arrested in west London on suspicion of arranging | :12:05. | :12:07. | |
funding for terrorism as part of an investigation led to Syria. A man | :12:08. | :12:11. | |
was arrested by counterterrorism officers and is being questhoned at | :12:12. | :12:15. | |
a south London police station. Officers said 12 addresses were | :12:16. | :12:18. | |
being searched as part of the investigation, one in Hertfordshire | :12:19. | :12:22. | |
and 11 in the West London area. Final planning permission h`s been | :12:23. | :12:25. | |
given to Luton airport to increase the number of passengers from 1 | :12:26. | :12:31. | |
million two 80 million a ye`r by 20 21. It's part of a ?100 million | :12:32. | :12:36. | |
developer and of the airport, expected to create more than 50 0 | :12:37. | :12:41. | |
jobs. Imagine living next to a 20,000 tonne pile of rubbish will | :12:42. | :12:44. | |
stop people living close to a waste site in Bromley say they cannot open | :12:45. | :12:48. | |
their windows because of thd smell. They are furious after a High Court | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
judge threw out the latest legal challenge from the Environmdnt | :12:54. | :12:57. | |
Agency against the company responsible. | :12:58. | :13:00. | |
For more than three years, ` rotting mountain of waste has cast ` shadow | :13:01. | :13:04. | |
over this quiet cul`de`sac hn Bromley. A stinking heap, 40 feet | :13:05. | :13:11. | |
high, estimated to be 20,000 tonnes. This is supposed to be a waste | :13:12. | :13:16. | |
transfer station, where rubbish is brought in, separated and then taken | :13:17. | :13:20. | |
away and turned into electrhcity. But here, it is just piling up and | :13:21. | :13:24. | |
up. Judges have already told the site operators to get rid of all of | :13:25. | :13:30. | |
the combustible waste. In the latest legal twist, the High Court has | :13:31. | :13:35. | |
thrown out a challenge against the company. I'm absolutely horrified. | :13:36. | :13:42. | |
It's an absolute blot on thd landscape. We are having to live in | :13:43. | :13:46. | |
the punishing conditions, dtst, dirt, flies, rats and a complete | :13:47. | :13:54. | |
carbuncle on the landscape. Is not yet clear on which grounds the | :13:55. | :13:58. | |
Environment Agency lost its latest legal efforts to clear the site | :13:59. | :14:07. | |
Waste4Fuel says it wants to shift the rubbish but can't afford it The | :14:08. | :14:10. | |
local MP says a loophole nedds closing. I've written to thd Prime | :14:11. | :14:15. | |
Minister asking him to meet me and two other neighbouring MPs, so that | :14:16. | :14:19. | |
we can look and say, I feel that there might be a gap in the legal | :14:20. | :14:22. | |
framework of these sites. That's going to require some joined up | :14:23. | :14:27. | |
approach by a number of govdrnment departments and agencies. W`ste Fuel | :14:28. | :14:31. | |
has argued, so far unsuccessfully, that it should be allowed to bring | :14:32. | :14:36. | |
in even more waste so it can generate cash to pay for thd removal | :14:37. | :14:39. | |
of all of the rubbish. The Environment Agency says it will do | :14:40. | :14:44. | |
everything in its power to reduce the waste to a lawful level and is | :14:45. | :14:49. | |
considering what further legal action it can take. For people | :14:50. | :14:53. | |
living here, there is no end in sight. Just a very large pile of | :14:54. | :14:54. | |
rubbish. Still to come: It might be ` | :14:55. | :15:06. | |
Championship without Andy Mtrray, following his departure frol S W 19, | :15:07. | :15:11. | |
but we'll be looking at how some of London's young hopefuls havd been | :15:12. | :15:16. | |
getting on in London. Yellow rattle and I'll be talking to Will.i.am | :15:17. | :15:20. | |
about his new project. Battersea Power Station's chimneys | :15:21. | :15:28. | |
are a familiar landmark on London's Now all four of them are about to be | :15:29. | :15:30. | |
dismantled only to be rebuilt once And developers say they'll look | :15:31. | :15:37. | |
identical to how they did bdfore. Can you see the chimney | :15:38. | :15:41. | |
on the far left? We are going on a journey to | :15:42. | :15:49. | |
a part of London that everyone knows It is a long climb | :15:50. | :15:52. | |
and our guide is the man We are going to run | :15:53. | :16:01. | |
our heads through here. Waiting for us, quite a bit closer, | :16:02. | :16:09. | |
a landmark that many Londondrs have I can see the power stations, the | :16:10. | :16:18. | |
football stadiums, the London Eye, The reason we are here is bdcause | :16:19. | :16:37. | |
work is now starting on the plan to take down and rebuild Battersea s | :16:38. | :16:45. | |
crumbling power station chilneys. We will do that in four foot | :16:46. | :16:50. | |
increments which is exactly how the The generators and | :16:51. | :16:59. | |
the machinery that once filled this But the chimneys are here to stay, | :17:00. | :17:05. | |
at least the replicas will be. At a cost to the site developers | :17:06. | :17:13. | |
of ?11 million. It featured in the closing ceremony | :17:14. | :17:18. | |
of the London Olympic Games. It was one of the eight London | :17:19. | :17:32. | |
buildings in the closing ceremony. The new chimneys are | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
designed to last 100 years. Watch the skies to see them | :17:38. | :17:41. | |
come down and go back up. And Gareth's still there thhs | :17:42. | :17:47. | |
evening, with a pretty uniqte view. It certainly is very special which | :17:48. | :18:02. | |
is perhaps why people are prepared to spend many millions of pounds on | :18:03. | :18:06. | |
new penthouse apartments whhch are going to be built on top of this | :18:07. | :18:12. | |
famous building. Let us look at the view. We have the Shard, thd City of | :18:13. | :18:22. | |
London, the Houses of Parli`ment and the London Eye. The engineers will | :18:23. | :18:36. | |
start demolishing the chimndy and then rebuilding it bit by bht. We | :18:37. | :18:41. | |
are told this process will take about two years at the only change | :18:42. | :18:44. | |
will see is that the paint will look a lot cleaner because it is a bit | :18:45. | :18:48. | |
tatty at the moment. To Wimbledon now, | :18:49. | :18:55. | |
and it wasn't the quarterfinal we were hoping for with defendhng | :18:56. | :18:57. | |
champion Andy Murray knocked out Let's see how some | :18:58. | :19:00. | |
of our junior hopefuls have fared. As you might expect, a little bit | :19:01. | :19:18. | |
flat, as sense of shock aftdr Andy Murray's defeat. After two straight | :19:19. | :19:27. | |
set finals it is disappointhng to see him go out in the quartdrfinals, | :19:28. | :19:32. | |
but Wimbledon is not only about the British men's number one. Wd have | :19:33. | :19:38. | |
had Junior Wimbledon today. Past winners include Roger Federdr and | :19:39. | :19:46. | |
Laura Robson, and seven youngsters from in and around the capital | :19:47. | :19:54. | |
scheduled to play today. First up were Jamie Malik and wrecked | :19:55. | :20:11. | |
personnel `` Rett Purcel. They had at least a set. This is what they | :20:12. | :20:18. | |
had to say afterwards. It is great being a British junior. You aspire | :20:19. | :20:22. | |
to come play here. There is a great atmosphere. All of the road behind | :20:23. | :20:29. | |
you. So many people. It is great to play here. Hopefully I will be able | :20:30. | :20:36. | |
to take the crowd and will not have as much pressure. It sounds as if | :20:37. | :20:42. | |
they got plenty out of the experience. We also had Max Stewart | :20:43. | :20:52. | |
and his partner who lost. Anna Brogan is in action at the loment. | :20:53. | :21:01. | |
She and her partner won the first set and are in a tie`break hn the | :21:02. | :21:12. | |
second. Anastasia McKeever hs also playing later tonight. Not ` great | :21:13. | :21:18. | |
day for Britain's leading lhght and not a great day so far for our | :21:19. | :21:24. | |
youngsters, but hopefully brighter days ahead. | :21:25. | :21:29. | |
School children in north west London have swapped the classroom for a | :21:30. | :21:32. | |
The pupils from Ruislip High School are being given special lessons to | :21:33. | :21:36. | |
help mark the centenary of the start of the Great W`r. | :21:37. | :21:48. | |
We thought the war would be over by Christmas. | :21:49. | :21:50. | |
The whole of Ruislip High School have had a role in this particular | :21:51. | :21:53. | |
project to build a trench where the canteen used to be. | :21:54. | :21:57. | |
In Year Nine, students go to the battlefidlds and | :21:58. | :22:00. | |
they learn all about the trdnches so we took research from the Ydar Nine | :22:01. | :22:03. | |
photographs in France and worked with RAF Northolt very closdly | :22:04. | :22:08. | |
The walls were made in technology lessons, | :22:09. | :22:13. | |
The pupils have performed readings and sent letters abroad. | :22:14. | :22:20. | |
It is a commemoration through education. | :22:21. | :22:23. | |
It is hard because it could have been me having to help. | :22:24. | :22:28. | |
Kids even younger than me had to do their part. | :22:29. | :22:31. | |
I had family fighting in World War I so that affected me and I w`s | :22:32. | :22:36. | |
This is certainly an English lesson with a difference. | :22:37. | :22:43. | |
The school says all departmdnts have used the trench as a teaching tool. | :22:44. | :22:47. | |
Science have had bombs and smoke going off. | :22:48. | :22:51. | |
They have taken an interest and it has brought the events | :22:52. | :22:55. | |
We are still fighting hard and losing men. | :22:56. | :23:00. | |
We knew nothing of the proposed peace treaty, the armistice. | :23:01. | :23:03. | |
Volunteers from nearby RAF Northolt have also been taking part | :23:04. | :23:07. | |
and other schools will be vhsiting the trench in the next thred weeks. | :23:08. | :23:18. | |
He's best know as a musician and more recently a judge on thd BBC | :23:19. | :23:21. | |
is also a self`styled geek, with a love of all things technological. | :23:22. | :23:27. | |
So much so, he features in an exhibition | :23:28. | :23:29. | |
at the Barbican, celebrating the development of digital ledia | :23:30. | :23:31. | |
Our Arts Correspondent caught up with him at today's launch. | :23:32. | :23:45. | |
Using 2`D and 3D technology, the director of this project has | :23:46. | :23:53. | |
projected Brixton inhabited by a robot workforce. It forms p`rt of an | :23:54. | :24:02. | |
exhibition at the Barbican. The difference was we are looking at the | :24:03. | :24:05. | |
whole range of digital tools. Everything emanates from code. This | :24:06. | :24:15. | |
show features interactive art works alongside exhibition based displays. | :24:16. | :24:21. | |
Despite being a natural attraction for technology geeks, it has | :24:22. | :24:25. | |
something for everyone. Inspiring gamers, movie fans, families and | :24:26. | :24:31. | |
lovers of art. It looks at five decades of practice starting in the | :24:32. | :24:35. | |
1970s so there's going to bd classic arcade games which people c`n play | :24:36. | :24:42. | |
around with. The Barbican h`s a long history of engagement with digital | :24:43. | :24:47. | |
creativity but this exhibithon is its most comprehensive look at how | :24:48. | :24:50. | |
the arts have been transforled by digital technology, bringing | :24:51. | :24:54. | |
together a range of artists pushing boundaries in their fields hncluding | :24:55. | :25:02. | |
musician will.i.am. This experimental collaboration dxplores | :25:03. | :25:06. | |
the connection between analog and digital music in a live gallery | :25:07. | :25:13. | |
experience. This is a great environment and ensemble of creative | :25:14. | :25:18. | |
people coming together and putting installations for the Barbican. I am | :25:19. | :25:26. | |
so proud to be a part of crdative people excited about their product. | :25:27. | :25:30. | |
Popular culture forgot about museums. Hopefully installations | :25:31. | :25:37. | |
like this will inspire other creative people and popular culture | :25:38. | :25:45. | |
back to museums. The exhibition runs until September. | :25:46. | :25:50. | |
Let's head back to Wimbledon for a check on the weather. | :25:51. | :26:01. | |
The weather has helped to lhft the mood after Andy Murray went out A | :26:02. | :26:09. | |
little bit of load this aftdrnoon. We have that around but the next | :26:10. | :26:13. | |
couple of days will see a rdturn of the blue skies. It will be ` fine | :26:14. | :26:21. | |
night, no rain expected, drx lengthy clear spells. Temperatures down to | :26:22. | :26:26. | |
11 degrees Celsius. It will turn cooler in rural areas. A frdsh feel | :26:27. | :26:32. | |
first thing in the morning. It is going to be a cracking day. There | :26:33. | :26:35. | |
will be a little bit of clotd here and there and the sunshine lay be | :26:36. | :26:46. | |
hazy. There may be more of ` breeze tomorrow but overall a beautiful | :26:47. | :26:52. | |
summer day and warmer. Tempdratures set to climb to perhaps as high as | :26:53. | :26:56. | |
27 in the centre of London, that would make it the warmest d`y of the | :26:57. | :27:04. | |
year anywhere in the UK. Thd UV levels will be high and pollen | :27:05. | :27:07. | |
levels are claiming so take note of that, grass pollen levels expected | :27:08. | :27:16. | |
to be high or very high. Frhday is another cracking day, plentx of | :27:17. | :27:21. | |
sunshine, a bit more cloud hn western areas as we go throtgh the | :27:22. | :27:23. | |
day and temperatures in the high 20s. For Wimbledon there is the | :27:24. | :27:29. | |
possibility of a little bit of rain on Saturday, but hopefully ht will | :27:30. | :27:35. | |
clear during the afternoon. Plenty more fine weather to come. | :27:36. | :27:47. | |
From us here, thanks for watching and have a lovely evening. | :27:48. | :27:49. |
