:01:47. > :01:50.Good afternoon and welcome to the BBC News at 1.00pm. The man accused
:01:50. > :01:53.of killing five-year-old April Jones has wept as he appeared in
:01:53. > :01:59.court charged with murder, child abduction and perverting the course

:02:02. > :02:05.April was last seen a week ago, police are continuing their search
:02:05. > :02:08.for her - the numbers of officers on the ground doubled today. More
:02:08. > :02:14.on that in a moment, first, our correspondent Jon Brain is outside
:02:14. > :02:19.the court in Aberystwyth now. This time last month, April Jones
:02:19. > :02:24.was safe and happy in a classroom at her school. This morning,
:02:24. > :02:28.specialist search teams have again been looking for the little girl's
:02:28. > :02:32.body. It's been an emotional week for everyone concerned, emotions
:02:32. > :02:36.which were reflected at today's court appearance. Seven days after
:02:36. > :02:39.April Jones went missing, the man accused of being responsible for
:02:39. > :02:44.her disappearance was brought to court.
:02:44. > :02:47.A small but vocal group were waiting to hurl abuse.
:02:47. > :02:51.BOOING In the dock, Mark Bridger looked
:02:52. > :02:58.tearful as the charges were put to him that he'd abducted and murdered
:02:58. > :03:04.April and disposed of and concealed her body with the intention of
:03:04. > :03:09.perverting the course of justice. Idea if he understood, he said yes.
:03:09. > :03:13.His voice faltered. Mark Bridger has now been remanded
:03:13. > :03:18.in custody. His next appearance will be via a video link at
:03:18. > :03:22.Caernarfon Crown Court in two days' time. April was last seen a week
:03:22. > :03:26.ago climbing into a car outside her home. Despite the efforts of
:03:26. > :03:31.hundreds of people, there's been no trace of her since then.
:03:31. > :03:35.Specialist search teams are out in force yet again today still trying
:03:35. > :03:41.to find April and evidence of what may have happened to her.
:03:41. > :03:47.There are a number of search areas that are new to search, but also,
:03:47. > :03:51.we're rechecking, and what these search officers - are very skilled
:03:51. > :03:55.and experienced. They'll do a meticulous and systematic search
:03:55. > :03:58.really to eliminate to as high a possible level as we can that we're
:03:58. > :04:01.not missing anything. Meanwhile, Mark Bridger has been taken to
:04:01. > :04:05.prison in Manchester to await his next court appearance.
:04:05. > :04:09.This is all a heart-wrenching time for April's family, of course. This
:04:09. > :04:15.morning her mother issued an appeal on Facebook asking for people to
:04:15. > :04:23.keep that search going. In it she says, "Please keep looking for my
:04:23. > :04:25.baby girl." Thank you. Jon Brain from
:04:25. > :04:27.Aberystwyth. More than a hundred police officers
:04:27. > :04:30.are involved in the search for April Jones, and detectives say
:04:30. > :04:32.their operation has switched emphasis, with a change in their
:04:32. > :04:36.resources. Rhun Ap Iorwerth is in Machynlleth now.
:04:36. > :04:40.As we were saying, police numbers have increased, but has the focus
:04:40. > :04:44.changed at all? They're still certainly look in and
:04:44. > :04:47.around the Machynlleth area, but the nature of the search has
:04:47. > :04:51.changed I believe stemming, more than anything, from the decision by
:04:51. > :04:55.mountain rescue yesterday to suspend their operations. These are
:04:55. > :04:58.volunteers, of course. They'll be back should there be new
:04:58. > :05:02.intelligence, so the police response about the number of
:05:02. > :05:06.officers they have - a hundred and more officers searching for April,
:05:06. > :05:10.and 17 specialist teams in Machynlleth searching open areas
:05:11. > :05:16.within Machynlleth town itself. We have been up today near the home of
:05:16. > :05:20.Mark Bridger, but still, the River Dyfi remains a focus. We have seen
:05:20. > :05:25.marine units using specialist eight-wheel-drive vehicles to take
:05:25. > :05:31.supplies up to specialist officers working just upstream from where I
:05:31. > :05:37.am here, rope access, looking in gullies, in creeks. This is a very
:05:37. > :05:41.difficult river to search, plus of course the many tributaryrys to
:05:41. > :05:46.this river. The picture has changed. I'd have been waist deep in fast-
:05:46. > :05:49.flowing river a few days ago. Now the water level has receded. As the
:05:49. > :05:52.picture changes with the river, so the police have to again search
:05:52. > :05:56.over and over places they have already searched within the past
:05:56. > :06:00.week, so still a very wide area, and the police insisting that the
:06:00. > :06:03.momentum will be maintained. At the same time, we still have a
:06:03. > :06:08.community here that is devastated by what's happened over the past
:06:08. > :06:12.week, and tonight at around 7.30pm, we believe, the family has asked
:06:12. > :06:17.that balloons be released to the sky above Machynlleth as they
:06:17. > :06:19.continue to think of April. Thank you.
:06:19. > :06:23.The Chancellor George Osborne has confirmed he's considering whether
:06:23. > :06:25.there should be a limit on the number of children in a family that
:06:25. > :06:28.can be supported on benefits. He's just told the Conservative Party
:06:28. > :06:31.Conference in Birmingham that he intends to cut a further �10
:06:31. > :06:34.billion from the welfare budget and a system that encouraged families
:06:34. > :06:37.to live a life on benefit had to be tackled. He said the Government
:06:37. > :06:40.wouldn't budge from its plans to cut the deficit, but that it
:06:40. > :06:46.couldn't be done only the "wallets of the rich". From Birmingham, our
:06:46. > :06:50.political correspondent Carole Walker reports.
:06:50. > :06:54.George Osborne insisted there was no question of taking apart his
:06:54. > :06:59.economic strategy. On a visit to Birmingham University, he announced
:06:59. > :07:04.some extra funding for research. This is incredibly difficult...
:07:04. > :07:08.his overall message was a tough one - �10 billion of welfare cuts by
:07:08. > :07:11.the first full year of the next Parliament. In his conference
:07:11. > :07:16.speech, the Chancellor acknowledged it was taking longer than he'd
:07:16. > :07:20.hoped to pay off the deficit, but with the Prime Minister lending
:07:20. > :07:24.visible support, he declared he would finish the job of repairing
:07:24. > :07:30.the economy. Today in the face of the great economic challenges of
:07:30. > :07:32.our age, we here resolve - we will press on. We shall overcome.
:07:33. > :07:36.APPLAUSE He repeated his mantra, "We're all
:07:36. > :07:39.in it together" and insisted those with the most money should
:07:39. > :07:44.contribute the most, but he defended his decision to cut the
:07:44. > :07:50.top rate of tax. It is a completely phoney
:07:50. > :07:55.conception of fairs than you stick with a tax rate you know raises no
:07:55. > :07:59.money that you know drives away jobs and investment, that you know
:08:00. > :08:03.weakens the economy just to say you've kicked the rich. Mr Osborne
:08:03. > :08:06.said what he called the most radical reform on welfare for
:08:06. > :08:10.generations wasn't just about saving money. It was about fairness
:08:10. > :08:15.and enterprise, making sure it pays to go to work. How can we justify a
:08:15. > :08:20.system where people in work have to consider the full financial costs
:08:20. > :08:26.of having another child while those out of work don't?
:08:26. > :08:28.APPLAUSE But any future limit on benefits to
:08:28. > :08:33.children would be highly controversial. Turning around to a
:08:33. > :08:36.group of children and saying, "Look, your parents made the wrong
:08:36. > :08:40.decision. You shouldn't have been born" I think is really dangerous.
:08:40. > :08:44.Those children will be with us, and we've got to as a society say,
:08:44. > :08:49.actually, we owe these children an obligation morally but also on an
:08:49. > :08:54.economic level, because, as I say, they're our future workforce.
:08:54. > :08:57.tough message on welfare was always going to go down well at Tories at
:08:57. > :09:01.their conference. Ministers believe it will resonate with voters too,
:09:01. > :09:05.but what about the Lib Dems? The coalition partners accept there
:09:05. > :09:10.will have to be more cuts to benefits but on this scale? Nothing
:09:10. > :09:13.has been agreed in detail to cuts and saves to welfare. The
:09:13. > :09:17.Conservatives are perfectly entitled to set up their stall as
:09:17. > :09:21.to what we do as a country. We have to tighten our belts further, as we
:09:21. > :09:26.indeed were at our party conference. The Chancellor said any wavering
:09:26. > :09:30.from the hard choices would risk Britain's economic credibility. He
:09:30. > :09:34.said he would not gamble with the nation's future.
:09:34. > :09:37.Let's talk now to our political correspondent Norman Smith who
:09:37. > :09:40.joins us from Birmingham too. We were hearing George Osborne saying
:09:40. > :09:46.a radical reform of the welfare budget was needed, a tough message.
:09:46. > :09:49.Why such a tough, blunt message from him today? Well, the
:09:49. > :09:53.calculation is that by levelling with the British people, by being
:09:53. > :09:58.straight with voters about the scale of economic pain we've still
:09:58. > :10:02.got to get through - another �10 billion of benefit cuts, Mr Osborne
:10:02. > :10:07.will at least win plaudits for candour, but there is another
:10:07. > :10:11.calculation, and that is among so- called striving classes, benefit
:10:11. > :10:15.curves actually plays rather well. Again and again we heard from the
:10:15. > :10:18.Chancellor but also other Ministers talking about people who have to
:10:18. > :10:22.get up early in the morning, feed the dogs, get out to work, get on
:10:22. > :10:25.the commuter train - how they resent it and look over their
:10:25. > :10:29.shoulder at their neighbour's house where they may be on benefits and
:10:29. > :10:34.they're still lying in bed asleep, so the view is benefit curves are
:10:34. > :10:39.an economic necessity, but politically, they also play well
:10:39. > :10:43.with the aggrieved, squeezed middle. Yes. Now, Boris Johnson, the Mayor
:10:43. > :10:49.of London, at a conference today - he speaks to the conference
:10:49. > :10:52.tomorrow. What are people there saying about his appearance? Well,
:10:52. > :10:57.it's interesting. David Cameron refers to Boris Johnson publicly as
:10:57. > :11:02.a "blond-haired mop". In private, I suspect he's grinding his teeth and
:11:02. > :11:06.clenching his teeth at the mere mention of Boris's name. Why?
:11:06. > :11:12.Because Boris Johnson seems to delight wandering around hurling
:11:12. > :11:19.turnips at the direction of the Prime Minister over Heathrow. Many
:11:19. > :11:24.more people here view Boris Johnson with affection and maybe affection
:11:24. > :11:28.and of course he's going to sound testy at the mention of this Tory
:11:28. > :11:33.Prince, but at the moment, my sense is despite that Boris Johnson is
:11:33. > :11:35.not yet a threat to the Prime Minister. Norman, thank you. Norman
:11:35. > :11:37.Smith joining us from Birmingham. The Director-General of the BBC,
:11:37. > :11:40.George Entwistle, says the corporation will examine
:11:40. > :11:42.allegations of sexual abuse made against Sir Jimmy Savile once
:11:42. > :11:44.police have finished their investigation. There have been
:11:44. > :11:47.calls for an independent inquiry into claims BBC staff knew about
:11:47. > :11:57.suggestions the presenter was abusing young girls, but failed to
:11:57. > :11:57.
:11:57. > :12:02.act. David Silitto reports. The allegation against Jimmy Savile
:12:02. > :12:04.have mounted, and now a week on, the BBC today said sorry to the
:12:04. > :12:08.women involved. I would like to apologise on behalf of the
:12:08. > :12:12.organisation to each and every one of them for what they have had to
:12:12. > :12:16.endure here. The police are leading inquiries but the Direct Line of
:12:16. > :12:19.the BBC told radio Four's Today programme that the corporation at
:12:19. > :12:23.the right moment would carry out its own investigations. When the
:12:23. > :12:28.police have finished everything they have to do and have given us
:12:28. > :12:32.an assurance there is no way of us compromising or contaminating the
:12:32. > :12:36.investigation, I'll take it further and make sure any outstanding
:12:36. > :12:40.questions are answered. And there is growing pressure. Everyone has
:12:40. > :12:44.to ask themselves the question is there new evidence that needs to be
:12:44. > :12:48.looked at? Are there new things as an organisation we should examine?
:12:48. > :12:52.But from what I have read, and that's just a consumer of the media,
:12:52. > :12:56.as it were, truly shocking things have been said. So BBC has
:12:56. > :13:00.apologised, but what exactly are they apologising for? And this is
:13:00. > :13:05.beginning to go wider than just the Jimmy Savile case. A number of
:13:05. > :13:09.female TV presenters spoke up over the weekend about a number of
:13:09. > :13:12.incidents and the wider sexual culture this broadcasts at the time.
:13:12. > :13:15.This goes much wider than criminality. This goes to a culture
:13:15. > :13:20.that seemingly existed, and this is said by people who were in that
:13:20. > :13:24.environment at the time, a culture that existed. It was a pretty
:13:24. > :13:29.rotten culture that allowed young girls to be molested and worse.
:13:29. > :13:32.The star's reputation as a lovable, if eccentric, charity fundraiser
:13:32. > :13:36.has been treaded. The Jimmy Savile Charitable Trust today confirmed
:13:36. > :13:43.it's considering dropping his name. I think we get the idea, you know,
:13:43. > :13:47.that whatever has happened, there's something very unpleasant that's
:13:47. > :13:53.been going on, so therefore the Jimmy Savile name is going to be
:13:53. > :13:56.very difficult to - for people to think of in a good light. Others
:13:56. > :14:00.have spoken out about his knighthood, so now a police
:14:00. > :14:08.investigation and a BBC apology to the women who, for years, felt
:14:08. > :14:10.unable to speak out about one of Britain's biggest stars.
:14:10. > :14:17.A teenager has had her stomach removed after drinking a cocktail
:14:17. > :14:20.containing liquid nitrogen. The 18- year-old complained of severe pain
:14:20. > :14:22.and breathlessness after having the drink during a night out in
:14:22. > :14:25.Lancaster. The bar which sold the cocktail has stopped using liquid
:14:25. > :14:30.nitrogen, which creates a smoky dry ice effect. Danny Savage is outside
:14:30. > :14:35.the Lancaster bar. What's being said there about what
:14:35. > :14:39.happened to this girl? Well, this goes back to last Thursday evening,
:14:39. > :14:43.and Gabby Scanland, the 18-year-old who is now in hospital with serious
:14:43. > :14:48.injuries, was out celebrating her 18th birthday here in the City. She
:14:48. > :14:52.came here behind me to Oscar's wine bar, and while she was here, she
:14:53. > :14:56.had a cocktail that was prepared using liquid nitrogen. She had that
:14:56. > :15:00.drink, and later on in the evening, she had - began feeling unwell. She
:15:00. > :15:03.had a severe reaction to it. She collapsed. She was taken to
:15:03. > :15:07.hospital, and she had to have emergency surgery to remove her
:15:07. > :15:11.stomach. Police say they have been told by medics that if she hadn't
:15:11. > :15:15.had that operation, she probably would have died. Liquid nitrogen is
:15:15. > :15:19.obviously not meant to be ingested, but it is made as a sort of trendy
:15:19. > :15:23.drink at the moment to make cocktails look as though they're
:15:23. > :15:25.smoking. It appears she's had some very severe reaction to what
:15:25. > :15:30.happened. The bar say they're cooperating fully, and they've now
:15:30. > :15:33.stopped selling that sort of dink. Meanwhile, what of the victim
:15:33. > :15:38.herself? What's her condition? Do we know? She's in a serious but
:15:38. > :15:41.stable condition at the moment. Her school have released a statement
:15:41. > :15:45.saying she's one of the most hardworking, mature sthunts had
:15:45. > :15:51.simply gone out to celebrate her birthday. Our whole community is
:15:51. > :15:54.shocked by what happened. They say, "We're pleased to hear that she's
:15:54. > :15:59.making better-than-expected progress." But she's obviously had
:15:59. > :16:02.a very serious operation and a serious reaction. Her friends are
:16:02. > :16:06.thinking a great deal of her for the moment. They're worried, but
:16:06. > :16:16.she should make a recoverry, we understand, but it is something

:19:07. > :19:10.Moon, has expressed deep concern about the escalating attacks
:19:10. > :19:14.between Syria and Turkey. Mr Ban said the continuing shelling and
:19:14. > :19:18.artillery fire in the border region was extremely dangerous and he
:19:19. > :19:23.called for action to stop the flow of arms to Syria. Our correspondent
:19:23. > :19:28.reports now from the Turkish-Syrian border.
:19:28. > :19:34.Turkish soldiers have a perfect view of Syria. The Arab country is
:19:34. > :19:39.right next door. It's 19-month long conflict has now begun to cross the
:19:39. > :19:45.border. This is what happened yesterday
:19:45. > :19:49.afternoon in the border town of abgabg - a single mortar round from
:19:49. > :19:56.Syria landed in a field inside Turkish territory. No-one was
:19:57. > :20:01.injured, but Turkey responded by firing artillery across the border.
:20:01. > :20:05.This morning, this primary school stayed shut in case of further
:20:05. > :20:11.shelling. "Everybody is afraid. The children do not understand. The
:20:11. > :20:17.schools are closed and the children are home."
:20:17. > :20:20.The tea-drinkers just across the street decided to take a few more
:20:20. > :20:26.risks. TRANSLATION: War is blood and destruction. I am concerned,
:20:26. > :20:31.but I am against war. Everybody should be. Down the road, Turkey's
:20:31. > :20:36.forces keep their eyes on their neighbour. Turkey wants to defend
:20:36. > :20:40.its territory. At the same time, it doesn't want to get dragged into
:20:40. > :20:50.fighting a war. The Government says it does not want Syria to become

:20:56. > :21:00.Now, a look at the time: It is 1.20pm. Mark Bridger t man accused

:21:35. > :21:40.dancers given a chance to make it A mural by Mark Rothko, one of the
:21:40. > :21:43.most famous artists of the 20th century has been defaced at the
:21:43. > :21:48.Tate Modern A Russian man walked up to the artwork and daubed wit black
:21:48. > :21:55.paint, saying he was doing it as part of a movement called
:21:55. > :21:58."yellowism." The gallery said it did not have a price for the piece,
:21:58. > :22:06.but paintings by Rothko often fetch tens of millions of pounds. It is
:22:06. > :22:12.called Black on Maroon - a work of art by one of America's most famous
:22:12. > :22:18.post war painters. Now it has been defaced and a message of
:22:18. > :22:23."yellowism." It is part of an exhibition of work by Mark Rothko.
:22:23. > :22:29.Yesterday, visiters ot the Tate Modern were left stunned when the
:22:29. > :22:32.painting was defaced. The question now is, can it be repaired? There
:22:32. > :22:37.is a fantastic team who are knowledgeable. They have got to the
:22:37. > :22:40.paint quickly. I think there's every hope that it will be cleaned
:22:40. > :22:46.without any... Well, it is difficult to clean off, but it will
:22:46. > :22:49.be cleaned off and the painting will be back to how it used to be.
:22:49. > :22:54.The yellowism website attempts to explain the philosophy. He insists
:22:54. > :23:00.he was not trying to damage the painting and that he's not a vandal.
:23:00. > :23:06.I would like this picture to be presented in the context of
:23:06. > :23:10.yellowism and consider it to be about yellow colour only. Rothko's
:23:10. > :23:16.paintings sell for many millions at auction. It is not clear how the
:23:16. > :23:21.value of Black on Maroon will be affected by the stain of yellowism.
:23:21. > :23:26.Let's hear now from our arts editor, who joins us from the Tate Modern
:23:27. > :23:31.in London. This man said he's not a vandal. Give us a further idea of
:23:31. > :23:37.his reasons behind this? He's describing it as an act of pure
:23:37. > :23:46.expression. He is citing the father of conacceptualal art as hirz
:23:46. > :23:53.inspiration. -- his inspiration. He picked off a
:23:53. > :23:57.urinal and put it on the wall. The big difference is that those
:23:57. > :24:01.artists have either defaced works of art they already owned, had
:24:01. > :24:05.permission to deface, or were cheap throw aways, like a postcard. They
:24:05. > :24:09.did not walk up to a work of art, in a gallery, which is being looked
:24:09. > :24:14.at by other people and start drawing on it. That is not a work
:24:14. > :24:19.of art, that is an act of vandalism. We heard the Tate saying they can
:24:19. > :24:23.repair it. No doubt it is extremely embarrassing? Embarrassing,
:24:23. > :24:28.annoying, upsetting. The way these galleries work, not just in Britain
:24:28. > :24:32.but across the world, is on a basis of trust, that you can go up and
:24:32. > :24:39.look at these artworks, you can go up and put your nose up against
:24:39. > :24:43.them. They are not shut off against panes of glass. This act breaks
:24:43. > :24:46.that trust. It is like on football pitches, there are no longer fences
:24:46. > :24:50.keeping fans from the pitch. The fans do not go on the pitch,
:24:50. > :24:54.because they understand that is the deal. The deal is the same for
:24:54. > :24:59.people who visit art galleries. You don't touch or ruin the exhibits.
:24:59. > :25:03.If you don't do that you get great access to them. Yes, this is
:25:03. > :25:07.embarrassing. What can you do? Five million people come to this place
:25:07. > :25:11.every single year. They cannot watch every single one of them. I
:25:11. > :25:20.am told that this single incident will mean they will change their
:25:20. > :25:24.policy of letting people see the art up close. Thank you. This
:25:24. > :25:30.year's Nobel Prize for Medicine has been won by the British scientist
:25:30. > :25:34.Sir John Gurdon and Shinya Yamanaka of Japan for their ground-breaking
:25:34. > :25:38.work on stem cells. It showed mature cells could be reprogrammed
:25:38. > :25:46.to undertake new functions. This should revolutionise the
:25:46. > :25:51.understanding of how cells and/or begannisms develop. The Venezuelan
:25:51. > :25:55.President, Hugo Chavez has won a fourth term in office. He finished
:25:55. > :25:58.ten points ahead of Henrique Capriles. He said Venezuela could
:25:59. > :26:05.continue its march towards socialism, but also promised to be
:26:05. > :26:10.a better President. This had been billed as a tight
:26:10. > :26:17.race, but in the end the results came quickly after the final
:26:17. > :26:22.polling stations had closed it gave Mr Chavez a clear ten-point lead.
:26:22. > :26:27.TRANSLATION: To those who promote hate, to those who promote social
:26:27. > :26:33.poison, to those who are always trying to deny all the good things
:26:33. > :26:42.that happen in Venezuela - I invite them to dialogue, to debate and to
:26:42. > :26:49.work together for Venezuela. His followers were jubilant. Chavez
:26:49. > :26:54.has won because he's given free education to all. He has given free
:26:54. > :26:57.health system, he has given housing to poor people. TRANSLATION:
:26:57. > :27:06.have the best President in the world. We all love him. The women
:27:06. > :27:11.love him and we're going forward and we're growing with him.
:27:11. > :27:17.Street parties like this one broke out almost as soon as results were
:27:17. > :27:21.announced. Just as the politics is polarised, so as some people are
:27:21. > :27:25.celebrating tonight, others will be commiserating. The opposition
:27:25. > :27:29.candidate, Henrique Capriles, standing for a coalition of parties,
:27:29. > :27:33.conceded defeat. With his promises to maintain social programmes, but
:27:33. > :27:37.also encourage private business, he had managed to mount a serious
:27:37. > :27:41.challenge for the presidency, but in the end it does not enough.
:27:41. > :27:46.-- it was not enough. Mr Chavez was treated for cancer earlier this
:27:46. > :27:50.year and many will be watching the state of his health closely as he
:27:50. > :27:58.begins another six-year term of office. For now, his supporters are
:27:58. > :28:03.thinking only of celebrating. One of Britain's Paralympic stars
:28:03. > :28:09.has been taken an open-top bus tour of her home town. Crowds have
:28:09. > :28:14.turned out to welcome the swimmer Ellie Simmonds back to Walsall. Our
:28:14. > :28:21.correspondent is there for us now. Good afternoon. They turned out in
:28:21. > :28:26.force to welcome home their paraoimian golden -- their
:28:26. > :28:30.Paralympian golden girl, Ellie Simmonds. How does it feel to be
:28:30. > :28:35.back here? Amazing. Going to my postbox and then to my old school
:28:35. > :28:39.and to open a pool they have opened after me and to come here to
:28:39. > :28:44.Walsall, it is good. I am looking forward to chatting to all the kids.
:28:44. > :28:50.It is really good. You are only 17. How does this make you feel? Really
:28:50. > :28:54.good. Amazing. The support I've had during the Games, it has been good.
:28:54. > :28:59.You opened a school swimming pool today? It is a pool I used to swim
:28:59. > :29:03.in. It is from when I used to go to primary school, they named the pool
:29:03. > :29:08.after me, called Ellie Simmonds. It is really good. That pool, perhaps
:29:08. > :29:13.one of the legacies of the summer of Olympic and Paralympic glory.
:29:13. > :29:16.Thank you and congratulations to Ellie Simmonds too. Let's get a
:29:16. > :29:21.Ellie Simmonds too. Let's get a look at the weather. Cloudy
:29:21. > :29:31.conditions, bits and pieces of rain around. You are not alone, I have
:29:31. > :29:33.
:29:33. > :29:37.to say. Those situations across the You will notice there, southern
:29:37. > :29:41.Scotland and north of England and Northern Ireland too, a good deal
:29:41. > :29:46.finer and drier. There are some decent gaps in that cloud. The same
:29:46. > :29:49.cannot be said further south. I am hopeful over towards the western
:29:49. > :29:53.side of Wales some brightness there. We improve our chances up towards
:29:53. > :29:59.Northern Ireland and across a good part of Scotland. Of course you
:29:59. > :30:04.have that band of cloud to contend with. The showers and few between.
:30:04. > :30:09.You will notice north of there a bracing feel to the day. Lovely for
:30:09. > :30:16.the in order of England. Once we sink further south, a complete veil
:30:16. > :30:20.of cloud is yours to be had. Rain across parts of the south-east.
:30:20. > :30:27.Come down towards the far south- west, yes a lot of cloud here, but
:30:27. > :30:31.a different feel to the afternoon - 11-12 Celsius, but towards towards
:30:32. > :30:37.the south-west, 15-16 Celsius could be yours this afternoon. Overnight,
:30:37. > :30:42.we thicken up the cloud across the far south-west. There'll be more
:30:42. > :30:48.coherent rain pushing in, which stays on the mild side further
:30:48. > :30:53.north. Notice how the cities dip away. In the countryside there'll
:30:53. > :31:03.be a frost for sheltered Scotland there. Down to minus four Celsius.
:31:03. > :31:07.
:31:07. > :31:11.We have to thank the high pressure You can see the migration of that
:31:11. > :31:14.rain - some moderate bursts here for Wales and the south-west and
:31:14. > :31:18.creeping further north. Further north again, across Scotland and
:31:18. > :31:22.the north of England there, a little bit of fog to contend with.
:31:22. > :31:27.Once we get going, again, plenty of sunshine around. On Wednesday
:31:27. > :31:33.something of a north and east, south and west split, with the best
:31:33. > :31:43.of the sunshine towards the north and east. Cloud pushing in towards
:31:43. > :31:47.
:31:47. > :31:52.By Thursday, I think we will talk about something much wetter for all.
