Now on BBC One, we join the BBC s news teams where you are. | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
Stabbed to death days after her 15th birthday by her ex`boyfriend. | :00:08. | :00:10. | |
Arsema Dawit's family say her death could have been | :00:11. | :00:12. | |
The public now know the truth that her death was avoidable and her life | :00:13. | :00:23. | |
could have been saved, if the police had acted. | :00:24. | :00:26. | |
A jury today said the policd investigation into a family | :00:27. | :00:30. | |
Complaint prior to the killhng was inadequate. | :00:31. | :00:37. | |
And claims housing costs ard driving employees away from the caphtal and | :00:38. | :00:42. | |
threatening businesses. Ina Surrey Hospital is the first in | :00:43. | :00:47. | |
the country to be given an outstanding rating. | :00:48. | :00:53. | |
And a '60s tower block restored to its former glory. | :00:54. | :01:02. | |
Good evening, and welcome to the programme. | :01:03. | :01:08. | |
A jury has severely criticised the Metropolitan Police for failing a | :01:09. | :01:11. | |
teenager who was stabbed more than 60 times by her jealous | :01:12. | :01:15. | |
ex`boyfriend. Arsema Dawit was killed by Thomas Nugusse just days | :01:16. | :01:20. | |
after her 15th birthday. Her family had reported him to the polhce | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
around five weeks before shd died, saying he had threatened to assault | :01:25. | :01:30. | |
and kill her. The jury at hdr inqust today said the police investigation | :01:31. | :01:35. | |
into that complaint was inadequate. This was to be Arsema Dawit's last | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
journey, on the bus home from school. The inquest was shown this | :01:40. | :01:45. | |
CCTV of her being followed by her former boyfriend, Thomas Nugusse, | :01:46. | :01:51. | |
minutes before his frenzied attack. Arsema Dawit was murdered hdre a few | :01:52. | :01:56. | |
yards from her front door in this residential block in Waterloo. Her | :01:57. | :01:59. | |
neighbours found her body in the lift. She was covered in blood. | :02:00. | :02:06. | |
Alongside her a knife, she had been repeatedly stabbed in the ndxt. | :02:07. | :02:11. | |
These later pictures show Thomas Nugusse leaving with what appeared | :02:12. | :02:17. | |
to be a bloodied cloth. He later phoned the police to confess. | :02:18. | :02:32. | |
Despite those chilling words, he will never stand trial. He hs now | :02:33. | :02:38. | |
severely brain damaged after he tried to kill himself in prhson | :02:39. | :02:41. | |
Today, though, the family h`d justice, of a sort. Speaking through | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
a lawyer, this was their re`ction to an inquest's verdict that their | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
daughter had been killed unlawfully. Arsema Dawit was a loving d`ughter | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
and sister, she was assaultdd, harassed and terrorised by Thomas | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
Nugusse. The inquest also found in favour of the family's long`standing | :03:00. | :03:03. | |
criticism that the police f`iled them. In the weeks before hdr | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
murder, Arsema Dawit's mothdr went here, to her local station to report | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
how Thomas Nugusse had struck her daughter, leaving her with ` black | :03:12. | :03:14. | |
eye and threatened to kill her. The jury at the inquest said thd police | :03:15. | :03:17. | |
investigation was insufficidnt and not carried out in a timely manner. | :03:18. | :03:20. | |
There were insufficient measures to communicate with the family as an | :03:21. | :03:24. | |
interpreter was needed and crucially, the family's warning | :03:25. | :03:27. | |
wasn't given the attention ` threat to kill requires. While the pain of | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
the loss of my daughter will never go away, I can take some colfort | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
from the fact that the publhc now know the truth, that Arsema's death | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
was avoidable and her life could have been saved if the police had | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
acted. Tonight the Met rele`sed a statement saying they have carried | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
out two internal reviews and they have now implemented all thd | :03:49. | :03:51. | |
recommendations of a separate critical police watchdog review into | :03:52. | :03:56. | |
their failings. Lots more to come this evenhng, | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
including: Dreaming of FA Cup glory, the | :04:02. | :04:07. | |
Romanian Londoners hoping to progress in England's oldest Cup | :04:08. | :04:13. | |
competition. The soaring cost of housing could | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
drive Londoners away from the capital, and damage the economy | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
here. That's the conclusion of an opinion poll for business ldaders, | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
which found that more than 40% of people, living in the capit`l, would | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
consider moving out because of high rents and house prices. It comes on | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
the day the Government reve`led plans to help some tennants with | :04:32. | :04:36. | |
rent so they could save to buy their own homes. | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
12 months ago the Turners wdre about to leave London. They ran a small | :04:41. | :04:43. | |
bakery but property was too expensive to let them expand and the | :04:44. | :04:47. | |
cost of living was too high for anyone wanted to work for them. | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
Today they live in Northamptonshire, where it's baking day and they've | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
just hired a new member of staff. I lived in London for far too lock. I | :04:57. | :05:02. | |
became too London centric. We started thinking that there is only | :05:03. | :05:06. | |
life in London. Once you cole to the countryside then you find you out | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
that actually it is not just sheep and towns, and roaming in the | :05:12. | :05:14. | |
fields. The Turners have already fled but for those who remahn, | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
staying in London feels mord like surviving and less about living We | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
are nearing the end of the lonth, so how tight do things really get? | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
Thankfully because I have s`vings I'm relying on them a bit. But the | :05:27. | :05:30. | |
realisation is I'll need to get a better job soon to be able to have a | :05:31. | :05:36. | |
comfortable lifestyle in London I find it difficult to meet all the | :05:37. | :05:40. | |
payments month by month. Wotld you be tempted to leave? No, I have to | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
work. It is possible to survive in London. How? #1y50 I think ht is | :05:46. | :05:50. | |
about finding a job and then managing what you spend according to | :05:51. | :05:56. | |
what you learn. A survey cl`ims that 56% of London's workers strtggle to | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
pay their rent or mortgage `nd live in the capital. 46% say thex're | :06:01. | :06:03. | |
thinking about leaving becatse of this, and this number rises to 9%, | :06:04. | :06:09. | |
if prices are going to rise as they are at the moment. And how luch do | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
people feel they need to earn to be comfortable in the capital? ?70 000. | :06:15. | :06:19. | |
Of course, if more and more people do decide they want to leavd, then | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
London faces a fresh problel. Namely, it runs the risk of losing | :06:25. | :06:28. | |
the very elements that make it so great. If people in the prile of | :06:29. | :06:33. | |
their working lives, in thehr late 20s, early 30s and who is, can't | :06:34. | :06:37. | |
afford to live here with thdir family, we run a real risk that | :06:38. | :06:42. | |
global businesses won't be competitive and will be who will | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
yoed out and London will no longer be an economic power horse. It is | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
not those on an average wagd. One of the country's biggest accouncy firms | :06:53. | :06:55. | |
is helping its employees to get a mortgage to make sure they stay | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
here. The gap between what xou earn when you start and whether xou can | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
save and get a deposit and service a mortgage is very big now. So, kids | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
starting now are spending a long time saving. Anything we can do to | :07:08. | :07:10. | |
accelerate that is really appreciated. So, could a new | :07:11. | :07:14. | |
Government plan to give somd Londoners the chance to pay less | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
rent so they can save for a deposit offer a part`way solution? London | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
has a huge demand. It has a particularly unique housing market. | :07:23. | :07:27. | |
We want to do what we can to make sure people in London, as wdll as | :07:28. | :07:31. | |
the rest of the country r gdtting extra support to get a deposit to | :07:32. | :07:34. | |
get into their first house. In Northamptonshire they are wdll a | :07:35. | :07:38. | |
world away from London's hotsing woes. There are no needs for fresh | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
initiatives here, just a stdady hand. More on this from our | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
Political Editor, Tim Donov`n. Will this plan make any difference when | :07:48. | :07:50. | |
it comes to affordable homes? Well, it is another attempt, isn't it to | :07:51. | :07:54. | |
send a signal to those people who are worried they will never, ever | :07:55. | :07:57. | |
get on the housing ladder, that help is on its way. The National Housing | :07:58. | :08:03. | |
Federation, which represents housing negotiations says that anything any | :08:04. | :08:08. | |
money, any loan that is going to help our members access funding and | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
get developers developing whll be good but they are dubious about | :08:13. | :08:16. | |
whether this is going to help people, because how much money are | :08:17. | :08:20. | |
people going to have to put aside for their deposits, if you like | :08:21. | :08:25. | |
seven years after paying thdse discounted rents. So, there is some | :08:26. | :08:30. | |
uncertainty about that, but the intention, of course, is to send a | :08:31. | :08:34. | |
signal if you find a property r you can stay there for seven ye`rs, you | :08:35. | :08:40. | |
get 20% off the market rent in the area and it is a hybrid. At the end | :08:41. | :08:46. | |
of it, you are then able to buy that property. But it shows how serious | :08:47. | :08:49. | |
the housing problem in the capital is, doesn't it? Yes and these next | :08:50. | :08:52. | |
few months, it becomes a highly political issue. The Mayor of | :08:53. | :08:55. | |
London, who will be in charge of this fund, incidentally this, 2 0 | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
million fund over three years, he has been struggling to repe`t the | :09:01. | :09:05. | |
affordal housing performancd of his first term. 58,000 in his fhrst | :09:06. | :09:11. | |
term. He is looking for 48,000 this tempt the Government wants to give | :09:12. | :09:14. | |
him some help. We are waiting to see what Labour will do in terms of | :09:15. | :09:19. | |
unlocking supply. Whether they are prepared to build on green belt and | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
whether they will give councils more borrowing powers. | :09:24. | :09:26. | |
Next, the death of a father who died in a house fire, caused by ` faulty | :09:27. | :09:31. | |
fridge freezer has led to c`lls for greater safety over electrical | :09:32. | :09:34. | |
appliances. Santosh Benjamin Muthiah saved his two daughters but was | :09:35. | :09:39. | |
overcome by fumes in his opdns in wool stone in 2010. Today a coroner | :09:40. | :09:43. | |
backed recommendations put forward by the London Fire Brigade. | :09:44. | :09:55. | |
The man in charge of safety, at fridge freezer manufacturers Beko | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
left court today We need to go and discuss what happened today and get | :10:00. | :10:05. | |
a second view. What about second`hand appliances? That's what | :10:06. | :10:11. | |
we are addressing. The coroner nund Santosh Benjamin Muthiah didd | :10:12. | :10:14. | |
because of smoke inhalation after one of the freezer caught fhre. The | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
family were unaware the fridge freezer had a history of problems | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
going back to 2003. The couple managed to save three 6 thehr | :10:24. | :10:27. | |
daughters a three`year`old `nd a three`month`old baby out of the | :10:28. | :10:30. | |
window and into the arms of neighbours. The coroner said he | :10:31. | :10:34. | |
couldn't commend highly enotgh the actions of members of this community | :10:35. | :10:42. | |
who put their own lives in danger to help. A statement from Santosh | :10:43. | :10:47. | |
Benjamin Muthiah's widow was read out When we brought our fridge, we | :10:48. | :10:53. | |
trusted the manufacturer for a safe product. Manufacturers, producers | :10:54. | :10:56. | |
and their retailers should be held more accountable for their `ctions | :10:57. | :11:02. | |
or their lack of response to consumers safety concerns. The value | :11:03. | :11:08. | |
of a human life is priceless. This footage, released by the London Fire | :11:09. | :11:12. | |
Brigade shows the recent devastation caused by a similar fridge freezer | :11:13. | :11:18. | |
fire at a London home, all Beko defrost models made between 200 and | :11:19. | :11:22. | |
20006 have since been recalled. We are grateful to the coroner for the | :11:23. | :11:27. | |
recommendations he has taken from us and Trading Standards. We hope they | :11:28. | :11:30. | |
will make people safer in their homes in the future. In a statement | :11:31. | :11:34. | |
from their Watford headquarters the manufacturer said, "At all times | :11:35. | :11:39. | |
Beko believed that the comp`ny and its employees have acted responsibly | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
and appropriately. None of our current range of appliances are | :11:44. | :11:46. | |
affected by the range of issues in this case." | :11:47. | :11:52. | |
The Metropolitan's current terrorism searches continued today. 18 | :11:53. | :11:54. | |
properties across London were examined for evidence T comds after | :11:55. | :11:58. | |
nine men, including radical preacher, Anjem Choudary, w`s | :11:59. | :12:03. | |
arrested yesterday. Two men arrested on the M6 motorway are being held in | :12:04. | :12:08. | |
custody be noe a police station in central London. Man has been jailed | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
for three years for keeping two men in servitude in one of the first | :12:12. | :12:16. | |
convictions of its kind in Dngland. John Rooney from Buckinghamshire was | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
sentenced for holding two mdn, aged 30 and 43 by coercion for fhve | :12:21. | :12:25. | |
months last year. Police sax he made them work for him and his f`mily. | :12:26. | :12:30. | |
More now on the continuing search for the missing teenager Alhce | :12:31. | :12:33. | |
Gross. Police have today bedn searching a park in west London | :12:34. | :12:38. | |
near the canal towpath wherd she was last seen four weeks ago. G`reth | :12:39. | :12:45. | |
FFurby is in Elthorne Park for us tonight. | :12:46. | :12:48. | |
Yes, we have learned a police search team identified a section of this | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
park which appeared to have an area of disturbed earth. Now, thhs could | :12:54. | :12:57. | |
have been a signifier that something had been hidden or buried there So | :12:58. | :13:02. | |
it was taken very seriously initially and detectives ordered a | :13:03. | :13:07. | |
full investigation. Day 29 and the search focussed on a | :13:08. | :13:14. | |
small park, bordered by thick scrub. This is the biggest police operation | :13:15. | :13:18. | |
in almost a decade, with se`rch teams covering 25 square miles. | :13:19. | :13:23. | |
But police later ruled out this potential lead, saying an area of | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
disturbed earth in the park was no longer of interest. | :13:29. | :13:32. | |
The new search site was identified a few hours after this police | :13:33. | :13:36. | |
reconstruction of Alice's l`st`known movements. She was seen takhng a | :13:37. | :13:40. | |
power walk, which covered sdveral miles. CCTV had picked her tp on the | :13:41. | :13:47. | |
walk and she was followed 14 minutes later, by Arnis Zalkains, a man | :13:48. | :13:52. | |
identified as a key suspect. He too, has vanished and the Mdt has | :13:53. | :13:57. | |
been to his native Latvia as part of the inquiry. | :13:58. | :14:02. | |
Alice Gross's father is still haunted by the last message they | :14:03. | :14:07. | |
exchanged. Well, I was teaching in the studio and I got a text just | :14:08. | :14:14. | |
after 3.00 from her saying, "What time will you be home?" I rdplied, | :14:15. | :14:23. | |
"5. 45 and that was it." Th`t was the last time I had any contact with | :14:24. | :14:28. | |
Alice. Every tree and street nearby seems to have a yellow ribbon, to | :14:29. | :14:31. | |
keep people think being Alice, but so far no`one has been able to say | :14:32. | :14:38. | |
where she might be. What Scotland Yard are saying is | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
that a full assessment was carried out on this area of disturbdd earth | :14:43. | :14:49. | |
but the conclusion is that ht is not of relevance to the Alice Gross | :14:50. | :14:52. | |
investigation. So 29 days on, there is still no breakthrough in this | :14:53. | :14:53. | |
case. Still to come, the story of Balfron | :14:54. | :15:06. | |
Tower, what London's first high`rise living look like. `` looked like. | :15:07. | :15:12. | |
A Surrey hospital has been `warded the first | :15:13. | :15:14. | |
Frimley Park Hospital was ghven top marks from the Care Quality | :15:15. | :15:20. | |
Commission ` in particular for the organisation of its A | :15:21. | :15:22. | |
Our political correspondent Karl Mercer has more. | :15:23. | :15:31. | |
It is midday in the resorts unit. Tom has just been brought in after | :15:32. | :15:40. | |
collapsing at work, one of 000, 00 patients seen by the emergency | :15:41. | :15:44. | |
department every year. According to hospital and factors, `` inspectors, | :15:45. | :15:54. | |
Tom is in good hands, part of a sector ranked as outstanding. It is | :15:55. | :15:57. | |
about working together to gdt the best outcomes for the patient. We | :15:58. | :16:02. | |
believe that half happy staff make happy patients. `` happy. Wd want to | :16:03. | :16:07. | |
invest in our staff and makd sure they are well educated, devdloped | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
appropriately, and work as ` team together. The hospital is sden | :16:13. | :16:17. | |
investment in recent years `nd the emergency department was rebuilt in | :16:18. | :16:21. | |
2012. But they have challenges ahead. They are about to take over | :16:22. | :16:24. | |
Heatherwood and Wexham park hospital, branded inadequatd by | :16:25. | :16:29. | |
inspectors and put into special measures. The staff and consultants, | :16:30. | :16:35. | |
technically, are very able. So the operations and treatment is as good | :16:36. | :16:40. | |
as anywhere else. What is l`cking is teamwork. And that is the rdal | :16:41. | :16:45. | |
success of this organisation. At every level. And strong clinical | :16:46. | :16:49. | |
leadership. That is something that we want to develop, to provhde | :16:50. | :16:57. | |
Slough with a fantastic hospital. Andrew Morris has been Chief | :16:58. | :17:01. | |
Executive here for 25 years. Many of the staff have been here a long | :17:02. | :17:05. | |
time. That stability is a kdy factor, according to the CQC. People | :17:06. | :17:10. | |
often think we are trying to do the same thing but in reality, ht points | :17:11. | :17:15. | |
to a different direction. Hdre, we try to get everybody pointing in the | :17:16. | :17:19. | |
same direction. This hospit`l is celebrating good news today but the | :17:20. | :17:22. | |
challenge will be to stay top of the league tables. | :17:23. | :17:25. | |
Lets get the sport now with Sara Orchard and once again | :17:26. | :17:28. | |
Yes, once again American Football comes to Wembley, and it appears to | :17:29. | :17:33. | |
There are three games schedtled here over the next two months, starting | :17:34. | :17:40. | |
with the Oakland Raiders hosting the Miami Dolphins on Sundax. | :17:41. | :17:43. | |
Today NFL bosses have confirmed their desire to have | :17:44. | :17:45. | |
They'll be testing the Wembley surface next year | :17:46. | :17:51. | |
by playing back`to`back fixtures after the Rugby World Cup. | :17:52. | :17:56. | |
But games chiefs have promised that any London team must be | :17:57. | :17:59. | |
as competitive as their American rivals. | :18:00. | :18:03. | |
A lot of testing is to be done from an operational site. Ultimately any | :18:04. | :18:13. | |
team here has to be competitive It is not about putting a team in the | :18:14. | :18:16. | |
marketplace, it is a team that ultimately can win the Super Bowl. | :18:17. | :18:18. | |
Now football and it may still be 245 days until the FA Cup final, | :18:19. | :18:22. | |
but this season's competition is already in full swing. | :18:23. | :18:27. | |
This weekend, non`league te`ms will be taking part | :18:28. | :18:29. | |
in the second qualifying rotnd and, as Chris Slegg reports, one of them | :18:30. | :18:32. | |
20 years ago, Romania lit up football's grandest stage. Romania | :18:33. | :18:50. | |
carry the European challengd into the quarterfinal. Today, in the FA | :18:51. | :18:56. | |
Cup qualifying rounds, a new generation of Romanians are living | :18:57. | :19:02. | |
their own football dream. This is FC Romania, founded as a Sundax league | :19:03. | :19:08. | |
team by a group of Romanian friends in 2006. Now it is good enotgh to | :19:09. | :19:11. | |
compete in the FA Cup for the very first time. It was my dream. It is | :19:12. | :19:19. | |
my dream come true. I'd unddrstand what it means for English pdople. It | :19:20. | :19:26. | |
is something special, the F@ Cup. You cannot put it in words. FC | :19:27. | :19:31. | |
Romania's progress has been rapid. In eight years they have gone from | :19:32. | :19:35. | |
the 16th division of English football to the ninth. That, and | :19:36. | :19:41. | |
they are impressive FA Cup run, has started to capture the imaghnation | :19:42. | :19:44. | |
of the locals in this corner of Hertfordshire. I've started to come | :19:45. | :19:49. | |
and watch the games because I enjoy the football they play. I love | :19:50. | :19:55. | |
football and I have now inhdrited a football team with eight colpletely | :19:56. | :20:03. | |
different organisation. The club has had to answer criticism that its | :20:04. | :20:07. | |
name and make up is a barridr to inclusivity. We have people from | :20:08. | :20:12. | |
many different races. Over time it started with expats, Romani`ns in | :20:13. | :20:17. | |
this country, hard`working guys but over time it is evolving. Tomorrow, | :20:18. | :20:23. | |
FC Romania take on a team whth a famous FA Cup history of thdir own. | :20:24. | :20:32. | |
If they could beat Coventry, why should we not be damp? It is an | :20:33. | :20:41. | |
important thing for me. `` why should we not beat them. Maxbe the | :20:42. | :20:44. | |
dream will lend it will continue. You never know. Two decades on from | :20:45. | :20:50. | |
World Cup fame, can FC Romania and Romanian football on the map again? | :20:51. | :20:55. | |
`` put Romanian football. Good luck to all | :20:56. | :20:57. | |
our non`league sides, but if you are looking for your Premier Le`gue fix, | :20:58. | :21:01. | |
our radio station BBC London 94 9 There's full commentary on the | :21:02. | :21:04. | |
saturday sports show of West Ham away to Manchester United at three | :21:05. | :21:08. | |
o'clock, whilst on our digital service and online you can hear QPR | :21:09. | :21:10. | |
on the road at Southampton, and if you stay on digital there's a small | :21:11. | :21:14. | |
matter of the north London derby. Arsenal against Tottenham khcks | :21:15. | :21:17. | |
off at 5.30pm. Finally, there was good news today | :21:18. | :21:21. | |
for Middlesex cricket fans. The county side have avoided | :21:22. | :21:23. | |
relegation on the last day They were playing Lancashird at | :21:24. | :21:26. | |
Old Trafford for The match finished in a draw | :21:27. | :21:35. | |
after Middlesex batted throtghout the day meaning their were luted | :21:36. | :21:39. | |
celebrations as Lancashire drop down and the Londoners conthnue | :21:40. | :21:42. | |
in cricket's top flight in 2015 They left it late | :21:43. | :21:45. | |
but congratulations to Middlesex. It used to be the 1960s high rise | :21:46. | :21:47. | |
that everyone loved to hate. Balfron Tower, in East London, | :21:48. | :21:54. | |
was even named But with architectural reputations, | :21:55. | :21:56. | |
it seems that what goes It's among | :21:57. | :22:00. | |
the concrete giants considered THE place to live and one flat has even | :22:01. | :22:07. | |
been imaginatively restored to its Wendy Hurrell has been to t`ke | :22:08. | :22:11. | |
a look. Popular in the 1950s. Ramsh`ckle | :22:12. | :22:23. | |
buildings left among the rubble after the Second World War, cramped | :22:24. | :22:29. | |
and squalid. Although not p`latial, these houses will help solvd a | :22:30. | :22:33. | |
problem if we build another then quickly. Signifying progress, up | :22:34. | :22:37. | |
went the first streets in the sky. Leading the way, the architdct Erno | :22:38. | :22:45. | |
Goldfinger. He moved into hhs flat in 1968, throwing champagne parties | :22:46. | :22:52. | |
for the residents. He wanted to show how desirable it was to livd in | :22:53. | :22:58. | |
these new high`rises. Not e`sy. A few weeks later, a gas explosion | :22:59. | :23:03. | |
caused another block of the road to partially collapse. Families moving | :23:04. | :23:10. | |
into the Balfron Tower were delighted and would have furnished | :23:11. | :23:17. | |
them a bit like this. Flat 030 is reimagined by the Hemingway dynasty. | :23:18. | :23:22. | |
The artwork on the wall, pahntings available from Boots in the 60s In | :23:23. | :23:29. | |
the 60s, they would have bedn really kitsch, not cool at all. Thhs | :23:30. | :23:34. | |
project as the unlikely backing of The National Trust, a Basti` not | :23:35. | :23:39. | |
beautiful richest places. Places of historic interest, that is what we | :23:40. | :23:43. | |
look after. Some will love ht but others will think it is hiddous But | :23:44. | :23:48. | |
nonetheless, it is interesthng and it says a lot about Britain in the | :23:49. | :23:53. | |
60s. But this is a living btilding. Grade two listed, and about to be | :23:54. | :23:59. | |
completely renovated, the decades`old community inspired two | :24:00. | :24:02. | |
artists who live in the town to begin a project. A lot of the people | :24:03. | :24:07. | |
had been living here all thdir lives. Most of them have now left. | :24:08. | :24:13. | |
The word was that maybe this could be a more mental of a time that will | :24:14. | :24:19. | |
pass. Such is the Balfron Tower s unstoppable revolution. For two | :24:20. | :24:24. | |
weeks, starting on October the st, we can see it in a moment of time, | :24:25. | :24:27. | |
when this was the future, ndarly 50 years ago. Let's find out what the | :24:28. | :24:35. | |
weather is going to be like for the weekend. Is it meant to be good Not | :24:36. | :24:42. | |
too bad at all, continuing on the one side. We have not done too | :24:43. | :24:47. | |
badly. Looking at the satellite picture, a lot of cloud. `` the warm | :24:48. | :24:59. | |
side. In between these two by patches, even outside, the | :25:00. | :25:03. | |
temperatures are around 20 degrees. A very warm evening this late in | :25:04. | :25:09. | |
September. Overnight, one or two problems could be caused by the | :25:10. | :25:12. | |
clear spots. If temperatures get down to 10 degrees, we will start to | :25:13. | :25:16. | |
sea mist and fog patches forming. We could have murky weather around But | :25:17. | :25:21. | |
apart from that, the weather is not too bad. Some of us could start | :25:22. | :25:28. | |
great. Any mist and fog will tend to lift. And the skies will generally | :25:29. | :25:31. | |
get brighter as we had throtgh the day. Let's look at the weather | :25:32. | :25:38. | |
forecast. A great start for some. Fog possible in the South and West. | :25:39. | :25:42. | |
Through the day, the cloud will break up and we will see brhght or | :25:43. | :25:45. | |
sunny spells. The wind will be liked, from an easterly dirdction. | :25:46. | :25:54. | |
`` the wind will be liked. No real change on Sunday. If anything, a | :25:55. | :26:01. | |
greater risk of fog. And ag`in, a dry day. The southeasterly wind | :26:02. | :26:09. | |
could nudge up temperatures. Not bad at all when you consider th`t we | :26:10. | :26:12. | |
should be at about 18 degreds this late on in September. You m`y see | :26:13. | :26:16. | |
some changes next week becatse, as we start to lose the influence of | :26:17. | :26:19. | |
high pressure, although the weather looks like it should stay dry, we | :26:20. | :26:24. | |
will keep an eye on these showers originating from Spain. Bec`use they | :26:25. | :26:27. | |
could head towards our neck of the woods as we get into words Londay. | :26:28. | :26:31. | |
Does the recap, this weekend, not bad at all. Mist and fog to start | :26:32. | :26:35. | |
the day but afternoon sunshhne to look forward to. It sounds lovely. | :26:36. | :26:45. | |
MPs have voted to support British air strikes in Iraq. | :26:46. | :26:48. | |
The Prime Minister said it's vital to take | :26:49. | :26:50. | |
on what he called the 'clear and present threat' of Islamic State. | :26:51. | :26:53. | |
Thousands of refugees continue to flee Islamic State forces. | :26:54. | :26:56. | |
Many have described the behdading of captives, the torching | :26:57. | :26:58. | |
of homes and the widespread use of rape by IS fighters. | :26:59. | :27:01. | |
Former Radio One DJ Dave Led Travis has been given | :27:02. | :27:03. | |
He was found guilty on Tuesday of groping a TV researcher hn 1 95. | :27:04. | :27:14. | |
That's it I will be back later during the ten o'clock news, | :27:15. | :27:17. | |
but for now from everyone on the team have a lovely evening. | :27:18. | :27:21. |
