:01:01. > :01:06.And the Government here is being taken to court because the European

:01:10. > :01:13.try to claim benefits. A 22-year-old man is being

:01:54. > :01:57.growing popularity. In the past hour, Mark Bridger has

:01:57. > :02:00.been found guilty of the abduction and murder of five-year-old April

:02:00. > :02:03.Jones. She had disappeared from her home in Machynlleth last October and

:02:03. > :02:08.despite a massive search by people in the town her body has never been

:02:08. > :02:11.found. The jury at Mold Crown Court took less than a day to decide it

:02:11. > :02:17.didn't believe Bridger's story that he had accidentally run over her in

:02:17. > :02:27.his car, but couldn't remember what he had done with her body. Let's

:02:27. > :04:41.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 134 seconds

:04:41. > :04:45.cross to Mold and our Wales his car. Bridger told officers he

:04:45. > :04:49.had been in an accident, claiming he had run over April before panicking.

:04:49. > :04:53.He couldn't remember what he had done with the body. But the

:04:53. > :04:57.investigation soon unravelled his story. The police search of Mark

:04:57. > :05:01.bridger's home uncovered his fascination for local schoolgirls.

:05:01. > :05:04.He stored photos of them on his computer alongside indecent

:05:04. > :05:13.magistrates of children he downloaded from the internet. And

:05:13. > :05:17.photos of child murder victims, such as holyS and Jessica Chapman.

:05:18. > :05:27.Forensic teams found traces of blood which matched April's DNA and

:05:28. > :05:28.

:05:28. > :05:32.alongside the bone fragments in the fire Mark Bridger's knife. The

:05:32. > :05:37.police continued to look for her body. It became the largest search

:05:37. > :05:42.in UK force history, but only one person knows where her remains are

:05:42. > :05:46.hidel. The court heard how Mark Bridger suggested places the police

:05:46. > :05:50.could look, the golf course, the picnic area. They believe he is

:05:50. > :05:54.still trying to maintain control over the investigation.

:05:54. > :05:59.Mark Bridger, I would describe as an evil and manipulative individual.

:05:59. > :06:03.Clearly someone who likes to be in control. Our only hope from our

:06:03. > :06:08.prospective and the family's prospective is he will tell us what

:06:08. > :06:12.he did with April Jones. April's parents have endured months

:06:12. > :06:17.of speculation and uncertainty. Reliving their daughter's

:06:17. > :06:22.disappearance each day in court. Today's verdicts may bring some

:06:22. > :06:32.comfort, but they don't answer the questions that pains them the most -

:06:32. > :06:38.April Jones is still missing and no Well, April's disappearance is a

:06:38. > :06:42.story that struck a dhord -- chord with parents and families. Within

:06:42. > :06:46.minutes of her going missing, hundreds went to the streets of

:06:46. > :06:50.Machynlleth to find her. Soon they were supplemented by officers from

:06:50. > :07:00.45 different forces across the UK. Jon Brain reports on the search for

:07:00. > :07:01.

:07:01. > :07:05.April Jones. A vulnerable member of their

:07:05. > :07:07.community was missing and they weren't going to rest until they

:07:07. > :07:10.found her. They have been out searching until

:07:10. > :07:13.3am and they had gone home to bed for a couple of hours and they have

:07:13. > :07:17.come back for daylight, ready to go again.

:07:17. > :07:21.Every morning, they came to offer their help. Virtually a whole town

:07:21. > :07:26.with just one aim - finding a little girl.

:07:26. > :07:31.I have got two people who don't have transport so I will take them with

:07:31. > :07:36.Even when the police suggested it was time to leave the search to the

:07:36. > :07:41.experts, they insisted on carrying on. The police are going to tell the

:07:41. > :07:45.locals to stop. I don't think they will stop anyway because it is a

:07:45. > :07:49.close-knit community. We just need to find her.

:07:49. > :07:54.Even the efforts of the volunteers were dwarfed by those of the

:07:54. > :08:00.professionals. This was the biggest operation of its kind ever staged in

:08:00. > :08:04.the UK. Every branch of the rescue services were involved and police

:08:04. > :08:07.officers from nearly every part of the country. This morning's task,

:08:07. > :08:13.open area search. In fact we had difficulty in trying

:08:13. > :08:17.to get rid of officers to have rest. We had officers who wouldn't take,

:08:17. > :08:20.who didn't want to go back home to their home forces and wanted to take

:08:20. > :08:23.leave and stay to volunteer to search.

:08:23. > :08:28.Once Mark Bridger was charged with murder, the search was April turned

:08:28. > :08:32.into a search for her body. But many in the town still refused to believe

:08:32. > :08:35.she couldn't be found alive. This child has not been found. We

:08:35. > :08:40.still have hope. I have been saying this from the very beginning. We

:08:40. > :08:44.still have hope. In the end, hope was not enough. But

:08:44. > :08:54.the people of this town can at least take solace in knowing they see

:08:54. > :08:57.

:08:57. > :09:01.couldn't have done anymore to bring Well, the crown prosecution released

:09:01. > :09:07.a statement welcoming today's verdicts. They describe Mark Bridger

:09:07. > :09:11.as a violent, cold-hearted murderer and a calculated liar. He now has to

:09:11. > :09:15.wait until 2pm when he will be called back into the courtroom for

:09:15. > :09:19.the process of sentencing to begin. We understand the judge is expecting

:09:19. > :09:23.to take sometime before he gives Mark Bridger his sentence. However,

:09:23. > :09:27.he has already been warned that the only sentence in this case is a life

:09:27. > :09:32.term. Thank you very much indeed.

:09:32. > :09:37.Well, we will have more reaction from April Jones's hometown of

:09:37. > :09:39.Machynlleth later in the programme. There was tight security at

:09:39. > :09:44.Westminster Magistrates' Court this morning as Michael Adebowal appeared

:09:44. > :09:47.in court for the first time charged with murdering Drummer Lee Rigby.

:09:47. > :09:50.The 22-year-old is accused of possessing a firearm. Well,

:09:51. > :09:54.throughout the hearing he was allowed to stay seated because of

:09:54. > :09:59.the injuries he received when police shot him during his arrest last

:10:00. > :10:03.week. Let's cross to June Kelly who was at the hearing. June. Well,

:10:03. > :10:06.officers from Scotland Yard's Counter Terrorism Command had to

:10:06. > :10:10.wait a while to get access to Michael Adebowal. Once they did the

:10:10. > :10:18.charges came quickly indeed. Just over 36 hoursz after he was released

:10:18. > :10:21.from hospital, he was appearing here Eight days on from events at

:10:21. > :10:27.Woolwich, one of the two main suspects was brought to Westminster

:10:27. > :10:30.Magistrates' Court in Central London. The security was intense.

:10:30. > :10:36.22-year-old Michael Adebowal was released from hospital on Tuesday

:10:36. > :10:40.and the charges were announced late last night. He appeared in the dock

:10:40. > :10:46.in handcuffs. He was wearing a sweat shirt and loose white trousers. He

:10:46. > :10:52.spoke only to confirm his name, age and address. He is charged with the

:10:52. > :10:56.murder of Lee Rigby in Woolwich last Wednesday. He faces a second count

:10:56. > :11:01.of possessing a 9. 4 millimetre revolver with intent to cause people

:11:01. > :11:08.to believe that violence would be used against them. A second suspect,

:11:08. > :11:12.in the case, Michael Adebolajo is still in hospital and hasn't been

:11:12. > :11:19.questioned. After Lee Rigby's killing, both suspects were shot at

:11:19. > :11:26.the scene by police. At today's brief hearing, it was announced that

:11:26. > :11:31.Michael Adebowal will be prosecuted under terrorism legislation. He is

:11:31. > :11:41.due back in court on Monday. Then he will appear before a judge at the

:11:41. > :11:42.

:11:42. > :11:46.was heavily bandaged, he was clearly having difficulty walking because of

:11:46. > :11:49.the leg injuries he sustained. Now, after the hearing he was taken to

:11:49. > :11:52.Belmarsh top security jail in South-East London which is just a

:11:52. > :11:57.short distance from Woolwich Barracks. Kate.

:11:57. > :12:00.June, thank you. Every p year millions of Britons go

:12:00. > :12:04.to Spain on holiday. If they are ill, they are entitled to free

:12:04. > :12:07.healthcare. At least that's the idea, but increasing numbers of

:12:07. > :12:11.Britons who fall ill say they have been told they will have to pay for

:12:11. > :12:16.treatment even though all EU citizens have the right to receive

:12:16. > :12:22.State medical care in member countries if they produce a European

:12:22. > :12:28.health insurances card. Matthew Price reports.

:12:28. > :12:35.Bring on the sunshine. Millions of Brits fly in and hit Spain's beaches

:12:35. > :12:39.every year. A short hop from home, with all the comforts of home. Or so

:12:39. > :12:44.thought Ray and Rosemary Burton when they were on holiday here. They

:12:44. > :12:49.headed to this public hospital when he became seriously ill. They

:12:49. > :12:55.assumed they could use Ray's European health card called. It is

:12:55. > :12:59.supposed to give free access to emergency care in Spain.

:13:00. > :13:06.We presented our cards, but we were asked for credit cards and then

:13:06. > :13:10.later, asked for insurance details and they were quite firm in not

:13:10. > :13:17.wanting the card. It is not just them. One woman went

:13:17. > :13:22.to hospital in Ibiza needing surgery for a twisted bowel. The card wasn't

:13:22. > :13:30.accepted and the hospital is trying to charge her �21,000. In Alicante,

:13:30. > :13:35.a British couple was charged �2500 was treating a head injury. Their

:13:35. > :13:38.daughter had to fly back to Spain to get a refund which she did get.

:13:38. > :13:41.Millions of British people come to this part of Spain every year on

:13:41. > :13:45.their holidays and the British Government says for most of them, if

:13:45. > :13:50.they have to use the health cards, the system does work, but there is

:13:50. > :13:53.concern br when it does not work and not just for British people, but for

:13:53. > :13:59.holiday-makers from across Europe. That's why Spain's health officials

:13:59. > :14:02.have been told by the European Commission to fix the system. The

:14:02. > :14:08.Spanish Health Ministry says it has been working properly, but it will

:14:08. > :14:11.co-operate. Far, far away from the sunshine, Brussels today wasn't just

:14:11. > :14:17.pointing the finger at Spain. It is the European Commission's job to

:14:17. > :14:22.police how the EU's single market is working. Today, it also said the UK

:14:22. > :14:26.is breaking the law, failing to pay EU migrants living in Britain the

:14:26. > :14:29.benefits they are due. The Government says its benefit tests

:14:29. > :14:33.are fair and necessary, but the commission is taking a the UK to

:14:33. > :14:38.court over this. Well, let's be clear. We want the UK

:14:38. > :14:41.to apply the EU rules against benefit tour tourism. We are not

:14:41. > :14:46.talking about letting people get access to UK benefits from the day

:14:46. > :14:52.they get off the ferry or get off the plane, it is people who are

:14:52. > :14:56.resident in the UK. So today, Britain divided on the EU?

:14:56. > :15:06.Happy with the action against Spain, less so perhaps about that against

:15:06. > :15:07.

:15:07. > :15:13.the UK. Rules here mean some people who have been working and paying tax

:15:13. > :15:16.in the UK have been prevented from claiming Ben fits like maternity pay

:15:16. > :15:20.and jobseeker's allowance. This morning the commission did say the

:15:20. > :15:22.UK was in contravention of European law and is being taken to court.

:15:22. > :15:26.Let's speak to our political correspondent Norman Smith to

:15:26. > :15:30.explain why and the Government's response. Well, the Government's

:15:30. > :15:35.response has been see you in court. We are not going to back down over

:15:35. > :15:38.our benefits system and we seem to be heading for a stand-up political

:15:39. > :15:41.and judicial fistfight with the European Commission and the British

:15:41. > :15:46.Government with the European Commission saying you are

:15:46. > :15:48.discriminating against EU nationals claiming benefits in Britain, by

:15:48. > :15:52.imposing tougher requirements on them than you do on your own

:15:52. > :15:57.citizens. The British Government saying we think it's far too easy

:15:57. > :16:01.for EU nationals to claim benefits here and by the way, we are going to

:16:01. > :16:04.introduce additional curbs to limit benefits they can get. The

:16:04. > :16:08.Commission say, you do not have a problem with benefit tourism. The

:16:08. > :16:13.British Government say benefit tourism is costing the British

:16:13. > :16:17.taxpayer dear. It is a significant row. But you sense privately

:16:17. > :16:20.Ministers might be going this isn't a bad row to have because in the

:16:20. > :16:25.current debate over Europe when David Cameron is under huge pressure

:16:25. > :16:29.to take a tougher line on Europe, here is an issue he can be seen to

:16:29. > :16:34.be standing up to Europe, to resisting Europe trying to grab more

:16:34. > :16:38.powers. Although this is a real row, you rather suspect Iain Duncan Smith

:16:38. > :16:46.is more than happy to cross the road, jump a fence, crawl through a

:16:46. > :16:50.hedge to have this particular row. Thank you.

:16:50. > :16:55.Our main story: In the past hour Mark Bridger has been found guilty

:16:55. > :17:05.of the abduction and murder of five-year-old April Jones. Still to

:17:05. > :17:11.

:17:11. > :17:14.come: Henry VIII's Mary Rose has a How the live broadcast of the

:17:14. > :17:24.Queen's Coronation ushered in the television age. And we meet the

:17:24. > :17:32.

:17:32. > :17:38.Londoners who have run away to the VII's Mary Rose sank. Now 30 years

:17:38. > :17:42.after it was raised from the seabed, it has a new home in a purpose-built

:17:42. > :17:49.�35 million museum which opens today. Visitors will be able to see

:17:49. > :17:58.the Hull and some of the 19,000 artefacts. Let's cross to Portsmouth

:17:58. > :18:03.and our correspondent who is there. This is the Mary Rose, she's never

:18:03. > :18:08.been seen before. She's clearly visible deck by deck. The remains of

:18:08. > :18:12.the Hull that you are looking at now are only part of the story in this

:18:12. > :18:17.new museum. The team have effectively reconstructed the

:18:17. > :18:21.missing second half of the ship. They've put inside a lot of the

:18:21. > :18:24.items, in fact thousands, that were found in and around the hull.

:18:25. > :18:30.They're back here in positions they would have occupied on the day she

:18:30. > :18:38.sank. Ringing out across the Solent for

:18:38. > :18:44.the first time in almost 460 years, the ship's bell of the flagship

:18:44. > :18:54.sounding over the spot where 400 men lost their lives. Let us remember

:18:54. > :18:55.

:18:55. > :19:03.before God the men of Mary Rose. On 11th October 1982 the Mary Rose

:19:03. > :19:07.had come home. There is the wreck... She had been hid nonthe mud and silt

:19:07. > :19:13.less than a mile from the docks where she was built. But the public

:19:13. > :19:17.who flocked to see her had to peer through water and chemicals, a

:19:17. > :19:23.radical plan was needed. For the past three years Mary Rose has been

:19:23. > :19:28.hidden from view as her new home grew around her. It's like walking

:19:28. > :19:36.through, down this line of a immediate Eval ship from that time,

:19:36. > :19:39.looking at how it was, how the sailors lived at that very time.

:19:39. > :19:45.It's almost unbelievable. The story told here is not just of a ship, but

:19:45. > :19:51.of the MEP who served on her. Many of -- men who served on her. Many

:19:51. > :19:54.finds can be linked to kru members. Their remains have helped scientists

:19:54. > :19:58.reconstruct their physical appearance. Among the first visitors

:19:58. > :20:03.the archaeologist who led the original recovery. I think this is a

:20:03. > :20:08.duty to the crew. It's their monument. But also I think we have a

:20:08. > :20:15.duty to share it with the public. Once she was a dead ship, an

:20:15. > :20:19.incomplete jigsaw. But no more. The Mary Rose has been reborn.

:20:19. > :20:23.In a way this is a deck story and there are big clues. These chests

:20:23. > :20:27.were full of their original contents, for example and those help

:20:27. > :20:31.lead us to individual members of the crew. The skills, the ways that they

:20:31. > :20:36.lived. But among the finds was one which has nothing to do with human

:20:36. > :20:41.beings, but one final detail and that is this, the remains of the

:20:41. > :20:47.ship's dog. Absolutely extraordinary. Thank you

:20:47. > :20:57.very much. You can see a special programme on the Mary Rose on the

:20:57. > :21:00.

:21:00. > :21:05.A man arrested over the disappearance of a teenager is now

:21:05. > :21:09.being questioned on suspicion of her murder. Georgia Williams, 17, and

:21:09. > :21:16.from Wellington in Shropshire, was last seen in the town on Sunday. The

:21:16. > :21:20.22-year-old man was arrested in Glasgow on Wednesday.

:21:20. > :21:25.Her disappearance was completely out of character. Georgia Williams, a

:21:25. > :21:30.former head girl and daughter of a police officer, hasn't been seen

:21:30. > :21:35.since Sunday evening. Her final tweet suggests she was tired but

:21:35. > :21:41.there were no other clues as to where or why she had gone. A man was

:21:41. > :21:44.arrested yesterday. A silver Toyota van was recovered from this car

:21:44. > :21:50.park. Detectives have tracked the journey from Wellington, via North

:21:50. > :21:53.Wales and Cumbria, to a final destination. They're still appealing

:21:53. > :21:58.for information from anyone who may have seen it on its journey. The

:21:58. > :22:02.police search has been focussed on a house in Wellington, where

:22:02. > :22:06.neighbours say a Jamie Reynolds lives with his mother. Detectives

:22:06. > :22:10.brought the man back here, buff the nature of his questioning bsh -- but

:22:10. > :22:14.the nature of his questioning has changed. He was detained on

:22:14. > :22:17.suspicion of kidnap, now it's the suspicion of murder. Her former

:22:17. > :22:26.school says it's devastated and described Georgia as someone who was

:22:26. > :22:29.liked by everyone. But it's clear now that everybody fears the worst.

:22:29. > :22:33.There's more evidence today that the housing market could be gathering

:22:33. > :22:38.momentum. A report from the nationwide shows that sales saw

:22:38. > :22:42.their strongest growth in 18 months with prices now 1. 1% higher than a

:22:42. > :22:47.year ago. Our chief economics correspondent is with me. Something

:22:47. > :22:50.positive then? Yes, the Nationwide say there is a sense of momentum

:22:50. > :22:54.because the economy is growing and the Bank of England has launched a

:22:54. > :22:57.scheme to get more money into the market which has helped bring down

:22:58. > :23:04.mortgage rates. Let's look at the figures. They're saying the average

:23:04. > :23:09.house price in May was nearly �168,000 and over the last year to

:23:10. > :23:15.May there was an increase of 1. 1%, the biggest in 18 months. But let's

:23:15. > :23:20.not forget that the average house price at the peak of the boom back

:23:20. > :23:26.in October 2007 was a lot higher, just over �186,000, some way to get

:23:26. > :23:32.back to that. We shouldn't forget that there are regional variations

:23:32. > :23:36.and different figures for April, show as where London prices are

:23:36. > :23:40.growing, in one region of England, the north-east, they're falling by

:23:40. > :23:46.nearly 6%. Big disparities, depending on where you are looking

:23:46. > :23:49.around the UK. If you have been shivering in the cold this month you

:23:49. > :23:54.won't be surprised to know this spring was officially the coldest in

:23:54. > :23:58.more than half a century. Over the past four weeks we have had heavy

:23:58. > :24:04.rain, high winds and as many of you will know, even frost and snow. One

:24:04. > :24:09.of the areas that has seen some of the worst is Herefordshire and our

:24:09. > :24:12.correspondent is in Ross-on-Wye with more.

:24:12. > :24:18.As you can see short sleeves here today but not because we are

:24:18. > :24:22.enjoying a mini heatwave but rather because we are in one of these giant

:24:22. > :24:26.polytunnels which if you are growing fresh fruit like strawberries is one

:24:26. > :24:36.of the only ways because the British climate is increasingly hostile.

:24:36. > :24:36.

:24:36. > :24:39.It's just served up the cold coldest spring for 50 years.

:24:39. > :24:45.Heavy rain through Scotland and Northern Ireland... The charts are

:24:45. > :24:51.not looking encouraging for this week. This evening good luck, the

:24:51. > :24:56.weather is truly awful. Spring 2013, started out bad, and didn't get much

:24:56. > :24:59.better. Even in mid-May there was snow on the ground in Shropshire,

:24:59. > :25:03.and the latest med office numbers make it official -- met office

:25:03. > :25:08.numbers make it official it's been the coldest spring for more than 50

:25:08. > :25:12.years. Normally milder weather comes in from the Atlantic, but we have

:25:12. > :25:16.seen is persistent colder weather coming in from the continent. It's

:25:16. > :25:23.been a blocked Pat earn, that's where the chilli weather has been

:25:23. > :25:30.coming through. In April we had a tech tures of 2 Celsius Celsius we

:25:30. > :25:33.don't often get in mid-winter. It shows how cold this spring has been.

:25:33. > :25:38.If you are in the soft fruit business it's hard to live with the

:25:38. > :25:45.British climate. The only choice is to use polytunnels to shift things

:25:45. > :25:49.along. Outside it feels like late winter. In here, it feels like June.

:25:49. > :25:53.The growing season is more than two weeks late. It's a real challenge

:25:53. > :25:59.and it's so difficult to know whether this is global warming or

:25:59. > :26:04.cooling or wetting or something. Or, whether it's just a seasonal change.

:26:04. > :26:09.We had last year a late spring, but the year before we actually picked

:26:10. > :26:14.17 days earlier than we have picked this year. So this spring has hardly

:26:14. > :26:22.been one for the scrapbooks. More a case of covering up, keeping dry and

:26:22. > :26:28.hoping play can resume. Oh, and keep the wellies handy, there's still

:26:28. > :26:33.plenty of rain around. The forecast is for an insettled June. The good

:26:33. > :26:37.news is they're managing to manage all this horrible weather. We are

:26:37. > :26:42.even getting a taste of summer time. But what everybody could do with is

:26:42. > :26:46.a lot more sunshine. Thank you. We will have the weather

:26:46. > :26:49.forecast shortly. Now let's return to our main story and the news that

:26:49. > :26:55.Mark Bridger has been found guilty of the abduction and murder of

:26:55. > :26:59.five-year-old April Jones. She disa I peered -- disappeared last

:26:59. > :27:04.October. And her body has never been found. Our UK affairs correspondent

:27:04. > :27:07.is there for us. What happened in October continues

:27:07. > :27:12.to cast a shadow over this town. People are still upset and people

:27:12. > :27:16.have had to relive the events of October as this trial has played

:27:16. > :27:20.out. They've had to see it in newspapers and watch it on

:27:20. > :27:24.television. People have not wanted to forget. They've wanted to show

:27:24. > :27:28.that they remember April and outside pubs and shops you will see time and

:27:28. > :27:33.time again pink ribbons, that's been a symbol of that campaign. At one

:27:33. > :27:37.stage it was a campaign to find April as volunteers gathered in the

:27:37. > :27:41.streets and headed in all directions out of Machynlleth. Lately, it's

:27:41. > :27:44.become a campaign for justice. Now Mark Bridger has been convicted. In

:27:44. > :27:49.the aftermath of that trial there will be questions for the police.

:27:49. > :27:53.Why did it take so long to identify Mark Bridger as a person of

:27:53. > :27:57.interest? And why did it take so long to bring him to custody? The

:27:57. > :28:01.police say they did all that they could and that huge search was

:28:01. > :28:04.taking place and when you talk to people in this community they're

:28:04. > :28:08.very clear, they believe Mark Bridger is the man responsible and

:28:08. > :28:13.the man responsible alone for what happened to April Jones. Of course,

:28:13. > :28:18.some of those details still are not known. The true extent of his crime

:28:18. > :28:21.has not been revealed in court. He has refused to say how April died,

:28:21. > :28:26.claiming he cannot remember. There are people gathering in Machynlleth

:28:26. > :28:31.today for a funeral and for some it's brought into sharp focus

:28:31. > :28:41.they've never been able to bury April's body. Thank you.

:28:41. > :28:44.

:28:44. > :28:50.does look as though it's actually the coldest in around 50 years.

:28:50. > :28:54.That's come in from The Met Office April hour ago.

:28:54. > :28:59.It's March that made it record-breaking in the top five,

:28:59. > :29:04.because it was so exceptionally cold.

:29:04. > :29:07.In terms of the weather for this afternoon, it's not a heatwave.

:29:07. > :29:12.Bright spells and showers and some of the showers could be on the heavy

:29:12. > :29:17.side. This is the satellite picture. In the last 24 hours we have been

:29:17. > :29:22.seeing this persistent pattern from the east. It's like our spring. This

:29:22. > :29:27.is what's happening this afternoon. Cloudier on that north sea coast but

:29:27. > :29:31.out towards the south-west high pressure is coming and that should

:29:31. > :29:34.be in time for the weekend. For the time being concentrating on the

:29:34. > :29:38.weather for this afternoon, it's a mixture of bright spells and

:29:38. > :29:44.showers. Some of the showers could be well heavy. Here is an example,

:29:44. > :29:49.across the south-west here. Probably we are talking about Surrey, Kent

:29:49. > :29:55.and Sussex, these will be the heaviest downpours today. They will

:29:55. > :30:00.extend across the Midlands, too. The North Sea coast misty in places.

:30:00. > :30:02.Cloudy across Scotland. Not necessarily the Western Isles.

:30:02. > :30:07.Across Northern Ireland where we have the bright weather, much as

:30:07. > :30:12.yesterday. This evening, the showers that will have brewed across the

:30:13. > :30:16.south will fade. But it's still going to be misty and murky and damp

:30:16. > :30:20.along the North Sea coasts. In the north-west there is a change going

:30:20. > :30:24.on in the air. We are going to see more cloud drifting in to Northern

:30:24. > :30:27.Ireland and western parts of Scotland. Damp weather, too. As far

:30:27. > :30:32.as tomorrow goes, it's a different story in the north-west, so more

:30:32. > :30:36.cloud. Not so sunny in Belfast. The rest of the country brighter and

:30:36. > :30:42.also brighter on most of the North Sea coasts, although just off East

:30:42. > :30:47.Anglia there might be mist around. That's good news for the cricket at

:30:47. > :30:50.Lords starting in the morning. Should be bright here. And we have

:30:50. > :30:54.the horse racing at Epsom, as well, that's Friday and Saturday. The

:30:54. > :31:02.weather is looking fine, as well. Plenty of bright weather. For most

:31:02. > :31:09.of us, given we get a fair bit of sunshine, it will feel quite warm. I

:31:09. > :31:10.think in summary, bright and warm for many of us but not slightly for

:31:10. > :31:15.everyone everyone

:31:15. > :31:19.Thank you very much. Our main story: In the past hour, Mark Bridger has

:31:19. > :31:25.been found guilty of the abduction and murder of five-year-old April
