Welcome to the programme. Two hitmen who stabbed a schoolboy to

:01:44.:01:46.

death in a case of mistaken identity have been found guilty of

:01:46.:01:51.

his murder. Ben Hope and Jason Richards, both from Cardiff, were

:01:51.:01:56.

each paid �1,000 to kill a man who live nearby. But the killers, but

:01:56.:01:59.

high on drugs, went to the wrong address and murdered 17-year-old

:01:59.:02:04.

Aamir Siddiqi in front of his parents. His sister said he'd been

:02:04.:02:14.
:02:14.:02:16.

Aamir Siddiqi was a young man who had a bright future ahead of him.

:02:16.:02:20.

But that future was cut short in a matter of seconds when he became

:02:20.:02:26.

the unintended victim of a contract killing. Today, his two killers

:02:26.:02:30.

stared and look without emotion, as they were both found guilty of

:02:30.:02:34.

killing her him and attempting to murder his parents. Bringing to end

:02:34.:02:40.

a long and complicated four-and-a- half month trial. Aamir Siddiqi

:02:40.:02:44.

grew up wanting to be a lawyer. A gifted student, he was the youngest

:02:44.:02:49.

child in a family which doted on him. His violent death confounded

:02:49.:02:55.

all who knew him. On a quiet Sunday afternoon in April, 2010, he opened

:02:55.:02:59.

the front door of the family home, expecting to welcome his Koran

:02:59.:03:05.

teacher. Instead, he was attacked by two masked men who howled as

:03:05.:03:10.

they stab him with daggers. His parents tried to defend their son,

:03:10.:03:14.

they, too, were attacked. Today, at the end of the four-and-a-half

:03:14.:03:20.

month trial, they spoke of their relief at securing justice. Aamir

:03:20.:03:23.

Siddiqi was a beautiful person with a bright future. If he was still

:03:23.:03:27.

with us, he'd be looking forward to turning 21 this year and completing

:03:27.:03:31.

his law degree. He was the heartbeat of our family, but his

:03:31.:03:37.

warmth, love, affection and humour touched many people. Jason Richards,

:03:37.:03:40.

on the left, and then hope we described in court as having shown

:03:40.:03:46.

staggering incompetence. Two killers who made a fatal mistake.

:03:46.:03:51.

Their intended victim had been a father of four living at this house

:03:51.:03:57.

in a leafy Cardiff suburb. Despite a reconnaissance trip, the two men

:03:57.:04:02.

drove to Aamir Siddiqi's home instead, 70 yards away. Today's

:04:02.:04:06.

verdict brings justice after a four-and-a-half month trial. But

:04:06.:04:12.

little can atone for the senseless nature of his death. In that

:04:12.:04:15.

emotional statement on the steps, his family said that only now could

:04:15.:04:20.

they begin to deal with the reality of his death. Jason Richards and

:04:20.:04:22.

Ben Hope will return to Swansea Crown Court next week to be

:04:22.:04:28.

sentenced. A senior counter- terrorism officer at Scotland Yard

:04:28.:04:32.

has been sentenced to 15 months in prison for offering to sell

:04:32.:04:34.

information to the News of the World about the phone hacking

:04:34.:04:38.

inquiry. Detective Chief Inspector April Casburn was convicted of

:04:38.:04:42.

misconduct in public office. The judge at the Old Bailey said this

:04:42.:04:45.

was the kind of activity that corrodes the public's faith in the

:04:45.:04:53.

police force. Arriving at court to discover her fate, BBCi April

:04:53.:04:58.

Casburn. In 2010 she was one of the most senior women in the Met's

:04:58.:05:01.

counter-terrorism command. She told the court she was unhappy in her

:05:01.:05:05.

job and annoyed that resources were being diverted to the phone hacking

:05:05.:05:09.

inquiry. She rang the News of the World and spoke to this journalist,

:05:09.:05:13.

Tim Wood, who told the trial that she'd offered to sell information

:05:13.:05:15.

about the phone hacking investigation into the newspaper.

:05:16.:05:20.

No money changed hands. But sentencing her to 15 months in

:05:20.:05:30.
:05:30.:05:38.

April Casburn's conviction three weeks ago was the first of a police

:05:38.:05:42.

officer in the cash for stories corruption investigation. Operation

:05:42.:05:46.

Elveden has its operations in the phone hacking inquiry. It has

:05:46.:05:51.

arrested 58 people so far. Among them, nine former or serving police

:05:51.:06:01.
:06:01.:06:09.

officers. The Metropolitan Police Here is a person who is dealing

:06:09.:06:13.

with sensitive, sometimes highly sensitive information on a daily

:06:13.:06:18.

basis. Internally, if she can't be trusted, and if the public can't

:06:19.:06:21.

trust her to deal with that information in the way it should be

:06:21.:06:26.

dealt with, she has no place in the organisation. The judge told April

:06:27.:06:29.

Casburn that he would have sentenced her to three years in

:06:29.:06:32.

prison, were it not for the fact that she was in the process of

:06:32.:06:38.

adopting a very vulnerable young child. Nevertheless, he said this

:06:38.:06:42.

was a straightforward but travelling case of corruption. And

:06:42.:06:47.

so it was that a senior detective today left court in the back of a

:06:47.:06:55.

prison van. Two people have been killed in a suspected suicide

:06:55.:06:58.

bombing outside the American embassy in the Turkish capital,

:06:58.:07:04.

Ankara. The blast took place near a side entrance. What can you tell

:07:04.:07:11.

us? The TV pictures suggest that the explosion happened at an

:07:11.:07:16.

entrance next to a gatehouse, on the side entrance to the US embassy

:07:16.:07:19.

in Ankara. The district is a heavily guarded diplomatic area,

:07:19.:07:23.

there are a number of other embassies in that area. It would

:07:23.:07:27.

have been guarded by the Turkish police. The Governor of Ankara has

:07:27.:07:31.

suggested that the attack was carried out by a suicide bomber.

:07:31.:07:37.

The US ambassador to Ankara has also been giving his response.

:07:37.:07:45.

are very grateful to the Turkish state, to the police for a very

:07:45.:07:50.

prompt response. We are very sad that we lost one of our Turkish

:07:50.:07:57.

guards at the gate. We are very sad and we pray for the speedy recovery

:07:57.:08:02.

of the wounded person, also a Turkish citizen. We pray very much

:08:02.:08:07.

for that person's recovery. theory at the moment is this was

:08:07.:08:13.

carried out by a suicide attacker. We don't know why. In 2003, Western

:08:13.:08:17.

targets were attacked in Turkey. The UK consulate in Istanbul and a

:08:17.:08:22.

branch of the HSBC branch were hit by Al-Qaeda inspired bombers. That

:08:22.:08:26.

may be one line of questioning at the moment. We await response and

:08:26.:08:34.

reaction from the Turkish Prime Minister. A police watchdog for

:08:34.:08:38.

England and Wales is woefully under equipped, that's according to MPs.

:08:38.:08:41.

In a highly critical report, they say the Independent Police

:08:41.:08:48.

Complaints Commission needs more resources and greater powers. The

:08:48.:08:51.

Independent Police Complaints Commission has dealt with some of

:08:51.:08:54.

the biggest controversies in policing history. From the shooting

:08:54.:08:58.

of an innocent man, Jean Charles de Menezes, to the disaster at

:08:58.:09:02.

Hillsborough, still under investigation. But today's report

:09:02.:09:05.

concludes it has lost the confidence of many who wanted to

:09:05.:09:10.

provide answers. People like the family of Shaun Rigg, who in 2008

:09:10.:09:14.

died in police custody while being restrained by three officers. His

:09:14.:09:18.

family say their complaints about what happened were not investigated

:09:18.:09:23.

properly by the IPCC. They are supposed to be independent. What

:09:23.:09:28.

that means is that families should be able to depend on them. I really

:09:28.:09:35.

think that they should be more robust, transparent and should aim

:09:35.:09:41.

to find the truth and facts, and not hide the facts. Today's report

:09:42.:09:47.

concludes the IPCC LAX powers and resources to handle more than 300

:09:47.:09:51.

cases and more than 6000 appeals about police complaints each year.

:09:51.:09:58.

It has 371 investigators. At the moment there is no faith in the

:09:58.:10:03.

system that we have that governs the work of the IPCC. It is

:10:03.:10:09.

woefully under-equipped. The powers it has are inadequate. The MPs say

:10:09.:10:13.

investigators need to be at the scenes of incidents like police

:10:13.:10:17.

shootings but in the so-called Golden hour after they've happened.

:10:17.:10:19.

The commission does not have the power to force officers to answer

:10:19.:10:24.

its questions. But the report says few a former police officers should

:10:24.:10:29.

be employed as investigators, to maintain independence. Ahead of the

:10:29.:10:33.

commission agrees entirely with these conclusions. We have to look

:10:33.:10:36.

at the resources we need to be able to provide confidence to the public

:10:37.:10:41.

about the way the police are doing things, as well as ourselves to do

:10:41.:10:45.

the most serious cases. And the demand for investigations continues

:10:45.:10:51.

to grow, in to police involvement in the Andrew Mitchell affair, into

:10:51.:10:55.

complaints about police corruption, into historic cases. The Home

:10:55.:10:58.

Office says this spring it hopes to say how it will ensure the

:10:58.:11:04.

commission has the powers and resources it needs. David Cameron

:11:04.:11:08.

says the international community needs to focus more on combat in

:11:08.:11:12.

extreme poverty. The Prime Minister isn't Liberia on the latest leg of

:11:12.:11:16.

his African tour. He says it's important to focus on issues that

:11:16.:11:23.

keep country's poor, such as conflict and corruption. David

:11:23.:11:27.

Cameron arriving in Liberia on the latest leg of his African tour.

:11:27.:11:31.

What has brought him here is increasingly seen as a personal

:11:31.:11:36.

mission for him. The key role he is playing in shaping the next phase

:11:36.:11:39.

of the battle against poverty across the developing world. It is

:11:39.:11:44.

very important we keep a focus on eradicating extreme poverty. Here

:11:44.:11:48.

in Liberia, one in 10 children don't make it to the age of five.

:11:48.:11:52.

But I also think it's important we look at those things that keep

:11:52.:11:55.

country's poor. Conflict, corruption, lack of justice, lack

:11:55.:11:59.

of the rule of law. Those things matter as well as age and money.

:11:59.:12:04.

That is what I'll be arguing for strongly here in Liberia. On the

:12:04.:12:10.

very doorstep of today's meeting, Shanti districts of Monrovia. The

:12:10.:12:14.

hardships people experience here, the struggle to stay -- scrape a

:12:14.:12:17.

living to get a job. This in a country that is still emerging from

:12:17.:12:22.

civil war, still trying to rebuild its economy. At issue is what will

:12:22.:12:26.

follow the World present goals for tackling poverty, hunger and

:12:26.:12:31.

disease that expire in two years' time. What I want to see David

:12:31.:12:35.

Cameron do today is to create this blueprint for the future for the

:12:36.:12:41.

next 15 years on how to build on what has already happened. If the

:12:41.:12:44.

right plants are agreed, 350 million children will be able to be

:12:44.:12:48.

brought out of poverty. Visiting this primary school with the

:12:48.:12:53.

Liberian President... Tell us about school. A lesson from Mr Cameron in

:12:53.:12:58.

young ambition. What's your favourite subject? Law. You want to

:12:59.:13:05.

be a lawyer. A primary education for every child has been one of the

:13:05.:13:09.

millennium goals. There's much to bed now about what that the post

:13:09.:13:12.

fit 2015 targets should focus more clearly and directly on the

:13:12.:13:17.

eradication of extreme poverty, or be broadened, not least to deal

:13:17.:13:24.

with the growing inequality within many countries. Argentina's Foreign

:13:24.:13:27.

Minister has turned down the offer of talks with William Hague over

:13:27.:13:31.

the future of the Falklands Islands, after the Foreign Secretary

:13:31.:13:39.

insisted that representatives of the island's government be present.

:13:39.:13:43.

They refuse to deal with the Port Stanley government, which Argentina

:13:43.:13:51.

refuses to recognise. The boss of Barclays says he will give up his

:13:51.:13:54.

bonus for 2012. Anthony Jenkin said it would be wrong to receive the

:13:54.:13:57.

award after a very difficult year for the bank. Reports had suggested

:13:57.:14:01.

he was due to receive a bonus of at least �1 million for the year,

:14:01.:14:08.

although he was entitled to 2.75 million. Swift action is needed to

:14:08.:14:14.

tackle Britain's dual problems of water shortages and flooding. MPs

:14:14.:14:17.

on the Environment Select Committee say the government acts far to

:14:17.:14:19.

salute -- slowly when it comes to storing water and sharing supplies

:14:19.:14:23.

across the UK. Ministers deny they have been slow in responding to the

:14:23.:14:33.
:14:33.:14:35.

The lastst months have been a reminder when you have too much or

:14:35.:14:41.

too little. You have a problem. One of the major challenges facing

:14:41.:14:45.

policy makers and politicians is just how to deal with all of this

:14:45.:14:49.

water, which has been brought down in increasingly torrential

:14:49.:14:53.

downpours. It is a complicated and complex problem, but today, the

:14:53.:14:59.

Government is being told that it could, and should be doing more.

:14:59.:15:03.

The draft water bill is supposed to be the answer to the twin problems

:15:03.:15:08.

of flood and drought. But today, committee of MPs says ministers are

:15:08.:15:15.

not moving quickly enough. There is absolutely no cause to delay, we

:15:15.:15:20.

really must treat flood risk, and appropriate flood management, and

:15:20.:15:25.

resilience as an absolute priority. Last month the Environment

:15:25.:15:29.

Secretary was out inspecting defence tons River Severn. There is

:15:29.:15:32.

no doubt that many communities have been saved from flooding because of

:15:32.:15:38.

schemes like this. Today, his team rejected claims that they are not

:15:38.:15:42.

doing enough, and they are very much on the case. We have

:15:42.:15:47.

implemented a massive change in how we deal with flooding, how we

:15:47.:15:51.

assess flood risk, the partners that we brought into solving issues

:15:51.:15:57.

locally has been dramty, and I completely do not accept that

:15:57.:16:01.

criticism from the committee. recent floods have not been because

:16:01.:16:07.

rivers have broken their banks but because of surface water, with

:16:07.:16:11.

sudden rainfall the drainage system is overwhelmed, turning roads into

:16:11.:16:16.

raging rivers. Judy Gibson lived in a caravan for two years, after her

:16:16.:16:22.

home flooded, twice. We have to take a far more holistic view about

:16:22.:16:26.

how we manage water, and that isn't just going to be achieved by

:16:26.:16:31.

putting up concrete flood defences, because it is not going to work.

:16:31.:16:35.

Our British weather has always been a talking poipbltd. The predicted

:16:35.:16:38.

impact of climate change means it is also rising up the political

:16:38.:16:48.
:16:48.:16:49.

agenda. -- point. Our top story this lunchtime. Two hit men who

:16:49.:16:53.

stabbed a schoolboy to death in a case of mistaken identity have been

:16:53.:16:58.

found guilty of Miss Murder. Aamir Siddiqi's sister said he was the

:16:58.:17:06.

heartbeat of the family. -- his murder. Coming up. Finding her

:17:06.:17:13.

voice this time. Beyonce explains why she lip-synced ad at President

:17:13.:17:16.

Obama's inauguration. As the shard opening its public viewing platform

:17:16.:17:22.

we find out how many of its 87 floor are occupied. After the

:17:22.:17:25.

transfer deadline controversy surrounds one player turning up

:17:26.:17:33.

unannounced at Loftus Road. Tests are being done on a sticky white

:17:33.:17:39.

wax found on more than 100 sea birds washed up on the south-west

:17:39.:17:44.

coastline ch the RSPCA and the RSPB have rescued dozens of birds. Many

:17:44.:17:49.

more will have been found on a stretch of coast which includes

:17:49.:17:55.

Chesil Beach. Our correspondent is there for us now. When we were out

:17:55.:17:59.

with the volunteers last night, they feared there would be more

:17:59.:18:03.

victims washed up on the morning tides. Those fears are been borne

:18:03.:18:06.

out. This is an inhospitalable coastline, even though the winds

:18:07.:18:10.

have dropped and the teams have faced challenging and dangerous

:18:10.:18:14.

moments as they tried to reach the injured birdslet it appears to be a

:18:14.:18:17.

serious incident this, and they are determined they can rescue as many

:18:17.:18:25.

as possible. Among rock, lashed by the tide, more and more victims of

:18:25.:18:29.

a pollution threat which has spread along the coastline from the tip of

:18:29.:18:33.

Cornwall to Sussex. Experience has led volunteers here on Portland to,

:18:33.:18:38.

the areas where affected birds are most likely to be washed ashore.

:18:38.:18:43.

They may be exhausted. Water-logged and starving, but catching them in

:18:43.:18:48.

this treacherous environment is challenging. Those now on their way

:18:48.:18:52.

to treatment centres are displaying symptoms that are distressing, and

:18:52.:19:02.
:19:02.:19:04.

now familiar. At the RSPCA welfare centre in Somerset, staff have been

:19:04.:19:08.

using margarine and washing up liquid to good effect but these

:19:08.:19:12.

guillemots are the lucky one, hundreds more will never reach

:19:12.:19:18.

shore It is gluing the feathers together, so that will take any

:19:18.:19:21.

ability for the feather to insulate the body. They can't control their

:19:21.:19:25.

temperature, they can't dive for fish, they are not waterproof. So,

:19:25.:19:31.

at sea, they are going to be dive dying from hypothermia, they will

:19:31.:19:34.

be starving, because they can't feed. The longer they stay out at

:19:34.:19:39.

sea the longer they have for survival. As the rescue work

:19:39.:19:43.

continue, two lines of inquiry are being followed up. Scientists may

:19:43.:19:48.

suspect that this contaminant is a form of vegetable oil, but they

:19:48.:19:53.

have yet to confirm it. Once identifies, the product could hell

:19:53.:20:00.

the maritime and coastguard agency to help trace the vessel but the

:20:00.:20:02.

pollution may have travelled a great distance from where any

:20:02.:20:06.

offence was committed. For now, efforts are concentrated on helping

:20:06.:20:10.

as many birds as possible. The likelihood is that the weekend

:20:10.:20:13.

tides will carry further victims ashore. Well, the volunteers are

:20:13.:20:17.

still on the look out on Chesil Beach, just going from the numbers

:20:17.:20:23.

here, more than 30 birds dead and alive rescued in this area, there

:20:23.:20:28.

could be thousands who will never make to it to shore. Tracing any

:20:28.:20:32.

vessel would be difficult, the quicker that this substance can be

:20:32.:20:37.

identified the better. Two young children were left stranded on a

:20:37.:20:40.

street in Birmingham, by car jackers who stole the vehicle they

:20:40.:20:43.

had been travelling. In two men pulled the children's mother from

:20:43.:20:48.

the car and drove off and abandoned the children aged one and five on

:20:48.:20:52.

their own about half a mile away. Phil Mackie is in Birmingham for us.

:20:52.:20:55.

A terribly distressing case for the children and their mother. What

:20:56.:21:00.

exactly happened? Well, it all happened here, on Wednesday evening.

:21:00.:21:06.

Round tea time. Quarter six. That young mum who is 23 was pulled out

:21:06.:21:11.

of her white Vauxhall Astra. The two men who did it, drove off with

:21:11.:21:15.

they were quickly reunited with their mother, known was physically

:21:30.:21:34.

incident. West Midlands police are investigating it and taking it

:21:34.:21:39.

seriously. They want to know what the motive was, whether there was

:21:39.:21:44.

the theft of the car or whether there was more to it. They are

:21:44.:21:47.

studying CCTV footage. They say it was a terrible ordeal for the

:21:47.:21:50.

family, and are appealing for Wynn witness, especially anybody who

:21:51.:21:54.

might have seen that white Astra driving round in Birmingham on

:21:54.:21:57.

Wednesday evening. For now, everybody physically OK, but

:21:58.:22:00.

obviously some deal of trauma for the mother and the two young

:22:00.:22:08.

children. At least 25 people have died and more than 100 injured in

:22:08.:22:13.

an explosion in Mexico City at the headquarters of the state oil giant

:22:13.:22:17.

Pemex. Up to 60 others could still be trapped. It is unclear what

:22:17.:22:20.

caused the blast. The Government has promised a thorough

:22:20.:22:23.

investigation. In central China, at least eight people have died after

plunged to ground when part of the motorway collapsed. Rescue efforts

:22:40.:22:44.

are continuing. Now, after all the excitement of last summer's Olympic

:22:44.:22:49.

Games, the Government is being accused of turning its back on

:22:50.:22:54.

school sport. As ministers prepare to announce a new strategy, Labour

:22:54.:22:59.

say the state of school sport is disastrous and undermining the

:22:59.:23:03.

Olympic legacy. Our sports correspondent has more. Here in

:23:03.:23:08.

York, the Springboard the Olympics provided to inspire a generation is

:23:08.:23:12.

apparent. This sports college used to be paid to share its PE staff

:23:13.:23:16.

with 25 local primaries but funding for the nationwide school sports

:23:16.:23:20.

partnership was cut by the Government, and this year the

:23:20.:23:23.

collaboration this school developed will have to cease. It is shameful

:23:23.:23:27.

in terms of us wanting to develop young athletes for the future. It

:23:27.:23:31.

is shameful in terms of the health agenda. We need to capture the

:23:31.:23:33.

imagination and enthusiasm of young people while they are young.

:23:34.:23:38.

Although the requirement for schools to provide two hours PE

:23:38.:23:43.

each week has been established pupils benefit from the facilities

:23:43.:23:48.

and an emphasis on sport. In many primary schools it is different.

:23:48.:23:54.

do PE two times a week. Last year when you were at primary school how

:23:54.:23:59.

much sport did you play? About two times a week, but they didn't have

:23:59.:24:06.

sports teachers. The Government has cendly committed �347 million to

:24:06.:24:10.

elite sport and half a billion to community sport, but school sport

:24:10.:24:15.

funding has been reduced to 65 million, and only runs till the end

:24:15.:24:20.

of the academic year. What we are seeing is a disastrous reduction,

:24:20.:24:24.

so the Olympic legacy is seriously undermined because of what is going

:24:24.:24:29.

on in schools. It is essential we get this right. It is not just

:24:29.:24:32.

about feeling good. There is a practical reason we have do this,

:24:32.:24:36.

and this Government has turned its back on school sport. Here in

:24:36.:24:40.

Barnsley the work that school sports partnership used to do, such

:24:40.:24:45.

as competition like this, is being continued, but by a not for profit

:24:45.:24:50.

company. Schools are supported but it is outsourcesed and they have to

:24:50.:24:54.

pay for it themselves. The government say the issue of sport

:24:54.:24:59.

and fiscal exercise in school is being discussed at the highest

:24:59.:25:06.

level and an announcement will be made soon. They are positive

:25:06.:25:10.

progress will be made. We want to give good quality fiscal education

:25:10.:25:16.

in the timetable, competitive sport in a properly, you know, managed

:25:16.:25:19.

environment, and to give young people, particularly in state

:25:19.:25:24.

schools, the opportunity of high quality fiscal education, that is

:25:24.:25:27.

vital. With research showing that most parents feel school sport

:25:28.:25:31.

could be better supports the Government finds itself under

:25:31.:25:35.

pressure to put come up with a new strategy, just six months after the

:25:45.:25:49.

games a long-term legacy appears to the British winter, the start of

:25:49.:25:53.

Rugby Union's Six Nations tourn tournament le. Plenty of concern

:25:53.:26:01.

about the players who won't be playing. Morgan is 28, a gifted

he's is coaching, not playing. -- Six Nations. Last month he

:26:09.:26:15.

announced his retirement from rugby. Morgan fracture his leg playing for

Wales. It was a freak injury, but a vivid reminder for even the most

:26:20.:26:24.

dedicated professional, Rugby Union can be a short career. Everyone

:26:24.:26:30.

knows when they take the field, that there is risk of injury, and I

:26:30.:26:35.

think over the last few years it is an increased risk of injury. Any

16hfr 20-year-old coming through the academy. I would advice them to

:26:39.:26:42.

get as many qualifications as they can while they are playing. You

:26:42.:26:47.

never know when you are going to retire. Right now the injury list

:26:47.:26:51.

across Welsh rugby is unprecedented. When Wales play Ireland here in

:26:51.:26:55.

Cardiff on Saturday, it is o easy enough to think of ten Welsh

:26:55.:26:58.

players who could have been involved, except they are out

injured. Wales are the defending snaitions champions but have lost

their -- Six Nations champions. If you are only as good as your last

game England should be well placed. They have resources, and Scotland

:27:16.:27:21.

it is different. There are only round 11,000 men playing rugby in

:27:21.:27:26.

Scotland. They lost to Tonga. So England versus Scotland should be

:27:26.:27:31.

straightforward? I worry more about the games you are expected to win.

:27:31.:27:34.

The expectation has increased but no-one can tell me playing Scotland

first up will be easy. Back in Wales Morgan will be watching it

sun this afternoon. A bit of a poor start, a lot of cloud in the UK,

:28:51.:28:56.

and outbreaks of rain. This afternoon I think bright or sunny

:28:56.:29:00.

spells for all areas still showers moving through as well. Heaviest in

:29:00.:29:05.

Wales and the north-west of England. Perhaps wintry on higher ground.

:29:05.:29:09.

Driest and brightest will be the south-east of England, the Midlands

:29:09.:29:12.

and East Anglia. Some patchy cloud round here, top temperatures, seven,

:29:12.:29:17.

eight degree mark. The breeze freshening things a little but a

:29:17.:29:19.

glorious afternoon to be had. Further north for northern England

:29:20.:29:24.

largely dry to the east, but a reminder of some of the showers,

:29:24.:29:30.

they could be heavier and wintry on the highest ground. For Scotland

:29:30.:29:35.

wintry showers on an northerly wind, but a lot drier and brighter here.

:29:36.:29:38.

Certainly in comparison to yesterday. For Northern Ireland

:29:38.:29:41.

some sunshine this afternoonment for Wales the showers could be

:29:41.:29:46.

heavy, they could be wintry, across the highest grounds. For the south-

:29:46.:29:50.

west of England, some light showers can't be ruled out. But we should

:29:50.:29:54.

have some sunshine. This evening and the showers will push their way

:29:54.:29:58.

eastwards but they should fizzle out. Overnight it will turn cold,

:29:58.:30:02.

particularly in the northern half of the UK, where we will see a

:30:02.:30:05.

fairly widespread frost. So beer that in mind with shower, we could

:30:05.:30:09.

see a bit of ice, and we will continue with showers coming from

:30:09.:30:12.

from the North Sea into the small hours Saturday and we could see a

:30:12.:30:16.

bit of a covering of snow in Yorkshire, Lincolnshire and the

whole. What a beautiful start to the weekend. Clear blue skies and

:30:28.:30:32.

sunshine. The temperatures behind me here, a bit deceptive, you must

:30:32.:30:36.

bear in mind that wind N the east it will feel closer to freezing but

:30:36.:30:41.

it will be as promised a beautiful looking start. Shortlived though,

we are back under the influence of Atlantic weather so it is all

change again. A bit mild e it becomes windier, outbreaks of rain

spreading across. Sunday's temperatures probably round the

seven, eight degree mark. A lot of cloud round and breezy as for next

week, though, seven or eight degree also start to sound mild, because

we are in for another blast of colder air through the course of
