:02:50. > :02:52.100th anniversary of the start of Britain's involvement in
:02:53. > :02:54.World War One. And out of the thousands

:03:10. > :03:12.in Finsbury, volunteers in their thousands queue to enlist in the
:03:13. > :03:18.army, as they walked into the unknown, many of them never
:03:19. > :03:26.returned. Three men from this straight, one chap, we do not even
:03:27. > :03:32.know his age. This man here. It is something we need to research. He
:03:33. > :03:37.would have lived right here? Down this straight, yes. Those who died
:03:38. > :03:41.have returned to the streets where they once lived, there are names
:03:42. > :03:46.printed on these plaques for a new generation of residence to see. They
:03:47. > :03:52.were all individuals who had wives, children, mothers and fathers, all
:03:53. > :03:58.of those will have grave. It is something that brings home the
:03:59. > :04:00.reality. It is really important. Almost 10,000 Islington residents
:04:01. > :04:03.lost their lives during the First World War, they were mostly young
:04:04. > :04:08.men who would have lived in neighbourhoods like these, or gone
:04:09. > :04:12.to a school like this one. What the commemorative plaques hope to do is
:04:13. > :04:16.make their story is a bit more personal. The poor fellow must have
:04:17. > :04:20.been injured beforehand and brought back to England and he has died. By
:04:21. > :04:26.putting up these plaques with the individual name and age, their time
:04:27. > :04:33.of death, where they died, when they died, it will enable local people to
:04:34. > :04:37.say, hang on a minute, I want to know more about this particular
:04:38. > :04:42.person... This map pinpoints where Islington soldiers came from, it was
:04:43. > :04:48.not just the borough 's men that played a part. Women were trained in
:04:49. > :04:55.making lenses, for periscopes of submarines and binoculars and
:04:56. > :04:59.telescopes. They died 100 years ago but it is hoped that these discrete
:05:00. > :05:04.reminders will bring home heroes of Islington once again.
:05:05. > :05:10.After another pleasant day there is a lot of dry and fine weather in
:05:11. > :05:14.this forecast, some people do want some rain, later in the week we will
:05:15. > :05:18.run the risk of that, but for tomorrow, a lot of dry weather, and
:05:19. > :05:23.plenty of warm sunshine. Through the evening and overnight we are dry and
:05:24. > :05:27.things will be settled, 13, 14 degrees, not quite as muddy as some
:05:28. > :05:30.nights we have seen. Off to a great start tomorrow morning, some
:05:31. > :05:34.sunshine, as we go through the afternoon we will run the risk of
:05:35. > :05:37.some showers cropping up. Many places staying dry, top temperature
:05:38. > :05:47.of delete it is going to turn increasingly
:05:48. > :05:49.unsettled with the risk of showers through the middle part of the week,
:05:50. > :06:10.and rain possibly on Thursday. Good evening. Some of us have had a
:06:11. > :06:14.sunny weekend but for others it has not stopped raining for the last
:06:15. > :06:20.couple of days, you can see where on the satellite picture, big swell of
:06:21. > :06:24.cloud, dominating things. Torrential storms, if you see the coverage, you
:06:25. > :06:27.can see how much rain there has been, that has caused issues.
:06:28. > :06:32.Thunder and lightning thrown in as well. This area of storms moves
:06:33. > :06:36.north out of Glasgow but this clutch of heavy downpours pushing into the
:06:37. > :06:40.south-west of Scotland, we will have to keep an eye on that for the
:06:41. > :06:45.closing ceremony. One thing is for sure, which showers and blustery
:06:46. > :06:46.wind, it will not be anything like as fine and warm
