:02:05. > :02:12.In 1972, Belfast was one of the most dangerous places on earth. There
:02:13. > :02:16.were multiple bombings and shootings almost daily. Panorama has learned
:02:17. > :02:23.soldiers operating in that year acted outside the law, and shot
:02:24. > :02:27.unarmed civilians. The Military Reaction Force had about 40 men
:02:28. > :02:31.hand-picked from across the British Army. Three former members have
:02:32. > :02:40.agreed to appear on camera, on condition their identities were
:02:41. > :02:45.disguised. What was the mission? To draw out the IRA and minimise their
:02:46. > :02:51.activities. If they needed shooting, they would be shot. We were not
:02:52. > :02:55.there to act like an army unit, we were there to act like a terror
:02:56. > :03:08.group. Some plainclothes soldiers shot it was -- thought it was all
:03:09. > :03:17.right to shoot unarmed civilians. There were strict rules. I knew the
:03:18. > :03:25.rules of the yellow card inside out. I want to be clear about where the
:03:26. > :03:32.red line was? The operation was wound up after 18 months.
:03:33. > :03:35.Patricia's father was shot dead in 1972 as he stood talking to some
:03:36. > :03:45.friends of manning a civilian barricade. We would like a new
:03:46. > :03:50.inquest. An open verdict was recorded in 1972. My father was
:03:51. > :03:54.killed on loftily. I would not like it to go down in history that that
:03:55. > :04:04.was the verdict. He was an innocent man and he was killed. We asked the
:04:05. > :04:07.MoD for a response. These allegations have been referred to
:04:08. > :04:11.the Police Service of Northern Ireland. Military personnel are
:04:12. > :04:15.required to operate under the law of the land. Yesterday the Northern
:04:16. > :04:20.Ireland Attorney General proposed there should be no more enquiries
:04:21. > :04:24.into conflict related killings. This could mean the end of the historical
:04:25. > :04:25.enquiries team who have been reviewing such cases over the last
:04:26. > :04:38.seven years. Our Northern Ireland correspondent
:04:39. > :04:45.joins us now. What reaction has there been there? As you can imagine
:04:46. > :04:50.there has been outrage and upset. These are effectively claims of
:04:51. > :04:53.state involvement in murder, state sanctioning of murder. That is
:04:54. > :04:59.something which is very difficult for a lot of families. It took place
:05:00. > :05:04.when there was mayhem on the streets behind me here. Hundreds of killings
:05:05. > :05:08.and hundreds of bombings. The families of people killed by
:05:09. > :05:14.paramilitaries, the police, the Army, who was really have never been
:05:15. > :05:18.given justice. There is a difficulty in thinking that in some way the
:05:19. > :05:23.peace process stopped at the signing of the Good Friday agreement and
:05:24. > :05:28.politics changed for ever, it has not. People are still trying to deal
:05:29. > :05:31.with all of these issues. Politicians are currently locked in
:05:32. > :05:37.conversation trying to find some way of looking to the future while
:05:38. > :05:41.dealing with the past. You can just hear the difficulties when you see
:05:42. > :05:44.the reaction to the Attorney General for Northern Ireland's comments
:05:45. > :05:49.yesterday that perhaps we should draw a line and stop any
:05:50. > :05:57.prosecutions on things that happened before 1998. You can see the full
:05:58. > :06:03.Panorama programme tonight on BBC One at 9pm.
:06:04. > :06:07.Labour have accused David Cameron of launching a smear campaign against
:06:08. > :06:11.them about the Co-op. Ministers have made repeated claims about the ties
:06:12. > :06:17.between the Labour leadership and the Co-op Bank's disgraced chairman,
:06:18. > :06:18.Paul Flowers. Now Labour is accusing the government of having serious
:06:19. > :06:29.questions to answer. The tale of a disgraced former boss,
:06:30. > :06:34.it has become a Westminster blame game. David Cameron asked why
:06:35. > :06:38.Westminster did not tell the authorities -- by Labour did not
:06:39. > :06:42.tell the authorities about this man. We have a Prime Minister making
:06:43. > :06:47.cheap political points rather than sorting out the serious situation at
:06:48. > :06:51.this bank. David Cameron is determined to smear his way through
:06:52. > :06:56.the next 18 months. That is wrong and not what the British people
:06:57. > :06:59.expect from their Prime Minister. Labour say it was on this
:07:00. > :07:06.government's watcher that the Co-op got into trouble.
:07:07. > :07:14.These were the pictures that led to the political row. Paul Flowers
:07:15. > :07:20.filmed allegedly buying drugs. The allegations have not stopped there.
:07:21. > :07:25.A drug charity has said that Flowers was suspended after an investigation
:07:26. > :07:33.into his expenses. There were over right ear of claims and some of them
:07:34. > :07:43.were legitimate. -- there were a variety of claims. The Co-op Bank
:07:44. > :07:50.has loaned Labrie lot of money. Paul Flowers is a former Labour
:07:51. > :07:56.councillor. That, say Tories and Lib Dems, makes it Labour's problem. I
:07:57. > :07:59.am sure the Labour Party will want to account for itself and also make
:08:00. > :08:04.sure that in addition to all the questions which still exists towards
:08:05. > :08:10.how they act as puppets for the trade union bosses, that they are
:08:11. > :08:17.not also connected to old characters like this. There is a high-stakes,
:08:18. > :08:21.political battle going on here with both sides trying to associate their
:08:22. > :08:27.opponents with the career of the Reverend Flowers. Many are asking
:08:28. > :08:29.how this man, with no career in banking, ended up chairman of a
:08:30. > :08:40.bank? Our political correspondent is in
:08:41. > :08:48.Westminster. Is this a political spat or something more significant?
:08:49. > :08:52.Today, we are seeing the start of the Labour fightback. Four days,
:08:53. > :08:59.Labour have been receiving a pounding with a steady dribble of
:09:00. > :09:03.allegations. The response of Ed Miliband's team has been to say, we
:09:04. > :09:11.know nothing. We have done nothing wrong. But they have sat down and
:09:12. > :09:14.concluded this strategy has got them precisely nowhere. Now they have
:09:15. > :09:20.decided to go on the offensive and pin the blame on George Osborne,
:09:21. > :09:25.saying the Chancellor tried to help the Co-op by Lloyds branches. The
:09:26. > :09:29.Chancellor intervened in Europe on behalf of the Co-op. He must have
:09:30. > :09:36.known what sort of a bank it was and what sort of a man Paul Flowers was.
:09:37. > :09:42.Ed Miliband has weighed in accusing David Cameron of smear tactics. I do
:09:43. > :09:47.not know if you're a military historian, but Napoleon used to have
:09:48. > :09:54.a saying, attack is the best form of offence. Ed Miliband is trying to
:09:55. > :10:02.take a leaf out of his book and defend the Labour Party from these
:10:03. > :10:06.accusations by going on the attack. Stamp duty revenues grew by nearly
:10:07. > :10:11.half to more than ?1 billion in October to help reduce public sector
:10:12. > :10:16.borrowing by nearly 200 billion -- ?200 million. With me now is our
:10:17. > :10:22.business correspondent. Is this good news? The economic recovery has
:10:23. > :10:26.helped these figures, but critics say the reduction in the underlying
:10:27. > :10:30.deficit has still been modest and there is a long way to go. If we
:10:31. > :10:35.look at these figures, the total deficit, that is the difference
:10:36. > :10:40.between what the government get in through taxation versus what it has
:10:41. > :10:46.to to spend, that fell. It is down from 8.2 billion from the year
:10:47. > :10:53.before. But the net public debt, the amount of money we all owe as a
:10:54. > :11:05.country, that rose to ?1.2 trillion. It has risen to a new high. 7.4% of
:11:06. > :11:10.our output. That improving economy does mean that the amount of money
:11:11. > :11:16.the government actually got in through taxation rose to ?48.7
:11:17. > :11:22.billion. That is mainly down to the fact the economy has picked up, but
:11:23. > :11:28.it is that stamp duty revenue which has been a strong rise. That is up
:11:29. > :11:35.by 46%. As the property market picks up, more transactions take place and
:11:36. > :11:38.more tax is payable on that. That has helped things improve. This does
:11:39. > :11:43.make welcome reading at the Treasury. It is the last set of
:11:44. > :11:49.borrowing data we get before the autumn statement which we will get
:11:50. > :11:54.next month. There is still work to be done, but the economy is heading
:11:55. > :11:58.in the right direction. The phone hacking trial has been shown an
:11:59. > :12:02.e-mail from Clive Goodman in which he warned a personal assistant that
:12:03. > :12:07.they could all end up in jail if payments to police were traced. He
:12:08. > :12:14.is among eight defendants who denied all charges against them.
:12:15. > :12:19.Clive Goodman regularly requested payments to be made to his sources
:12:20. > :12:23.according to today's evidence. They focus on the system under which such
:12:24. > :12:28.payments were authorised at the News of the World. He is on trial because
:12:29. > :12:33.he is alleged to have paid serving police officers, one of them based
:12:34. > :12:37.at St James's Palace, for information including telephone
:12:38. > :12:41.numbers of the Royal household. The jury were told at the News of the
:12:42. > :12:44.World journalists like Clive Goodman would request payments to be paid to
:12:45. > :12:49.their more sensitive sources by cash. They sent e-mails, some of
:12:50. > :12:56.which were shown in court. Clive Goodman e-mailed a assistant in
:12:57. > :13:01.2005, as you know, there are only three people I ever pay in cash. We
:13:02. > :13:06.would all end up in jail if anyone traced their payments. They have had
:13:07. > :13:12.special Branch crawling all over them since we ran a story about
:13:13. > :13:18.Operation Trident. In January 2006 he said in any mail, I am afraid he
:13:19. > :13:25.is a cash only contributor because of his extremely sensitive job. The
:13:26. > :13:39.jury has been told that e-mail was sent to a police officer. The
:13:40. > :13:51.recipient denies -- Clive Goodman wrote denies being -- paying for
:13:52. > :13:55.stories. London Underground has announced
:13:56. > :14:02.plans to close every ticket office on the network and cut 750 jobs by
:14:03. > :14:08.2015. The Tube will also run 24 hours a day on Friday and Saturday
:14:09. > :14:18.on some lines. Just how radical is this? Let me put it this way, I know
:14:19. > :14:22.the chewed is a London thing, but as many people get on the London Tube
:14:23. > :14:28.every day as the amount they get on the rest of Britain's trains
:14:29. > :14:32.altogether. That is the significance of it. Over the next couple of years
:14:33. > :14:38.there are going to be some radical changes. You can probably see the
:14:39. > :14:44.ticket office up there. All of the ticket offices across the whole
:14:45. > :14:50.network or going to go. We are told 750 people will lose their jobs.
:14:51. > :14:58.Five of the biggest lines will also start running tubes for 24 hours on
:14:59. > :15:01.Friday and Saturday. Jobs going and ticket offices going might conjure
:15:02. > :15:06.up images of empty stations where people cannot get help. Transport
:15:07. > :15:11.for London are insisting that those people will be moved out of offices
:15:12. > :15:16.but they will be on hand on platforms. They say every station
:15:17. > :15:21.will be staffed when the tubes are running. They are insisting this is
:15:22. > :15:34.good for passengers, but the unions are not happy.
:15:35. > :15:38.Former members of an undercover unit used by the British Army in Northern
:15:39. > :15:43.Ireland tell the BBC's panorama that unarmed civilians were killed. Still
:15:44. > :15:51.to come, Monty Python and the O2 appearance. The comedy team announce
:15:52. > :15:54.a comeback show. The Met Police are being trained and how to deal with
:15:55. > :15:57.mentally ill suspects, after concerns are raised. And can London
:15:58. > :16:06.learn lessons from Berlin when it comes to cycling safely?
:16:07. > :16:13.Just a few days ago, two-year-old Gaurav Bains was facing the prospect
:16:14. > :16:17.of spending this Christmas fighting for his life will stop suffering a
:16:18. > :16:22.rare condition, he was in desperate need of a bone marrow transplant.
:16:23. > :16:26.Now, after a massive social media campaign, a perfect match has been
:16:27. > :16:30.found. And that is even more remarkable because finding a match
:16:31. > :16:37.among the Asian community has been all but impossible in the past.
:16:38. > :16:41.Gaurav Bains looks like a happy, playful two-year-old, but he's been
:16:42. > :16:46.diagnosed with a rare blood disorder that will develop into an aggressive
:16:47. > :16:50.form of leukaemia. His parents were told his only hope was a bone marrow
:16:51. > :16:54.transplant, but doctors were struggling to find a match. His
:16:55. > :16:58.family launched an appeal on social media and the campaign took off. At
:16:59. > :17:07.the same time, a perfect match was found. It's given us hope now. A
:17:08. > :17:11.complete stranger has given us that chance of life for our son. It's
:17:12. > :17:18.incredible. I can't explain the feeling. The charity, the Anthony
:17:19. > :17:22.Nolan Trust, estimates that more than 2000 people joined the bone
:17:23. > :17:30.marrow register as a direct result of Gaurav's appeal. And he inspired
:17:31. > :17:33.a huge increase in Asian donors. Doctor Sarah Lawson is planning the
:17:34. > :17:38.transplant at the Birmingham Children's Hospital. When they're
:17:39. > :17:42.only treatment option is a transplant and there isn't a family
:17:43. > :17:45.donor, we need an unrelated donor. The more Asian donors we can get on
:17:46. > :17:49.the panels and other ethnic minorities, the better chance we
:17:50. > :17:55.have of finding someone who is a match and then we can treat these
:17:56. > :17:59.patients. Red and four Gaurav's family, the campaign won't stop
:18:00. > :18:04.here. The awareness that has been created has been fantastic. We are
:18:05. > :18:08.not going to stop here. We want to keep campaigning because it is not
:18:09. > :18:13.just about Gaurav and us. We've been blessed we found one so soon. There
:18:14. > :18:17.have been people waiting for years out there. Doctors are expected to
:18:18. > :18:21.operate before Christmas. It will be followed by eight weeks of gruelling
:18:22. > :18:29.treatment. But this family say it's the best present they could hope
:18:30. > :18:32.for. The Foreign Office says it is investigating reports that four
:18:33. > :18:36.British nationals have been killed in Syria, while fighting alongside
:18:37. > :18:40.rebel forces. Several hundred British citizens are thought to be
:18:41. > :18:44.involved in the British -- Civil War. French police say a man
:18:45. > :18:46.arrested on suspicion of shooting a photographer in Paris served a
:18:47. > :18:51.prison sentence for his involvement in a notorious crime early 20 years
:18:52. > :18:55.ago. The suspect was linked to a far left militant group which killed
:18:56. > :18:59.three policemen and a taxi driver. A huge manhunt was mounted after the
:19:00. > :19:06.shooting in the offices of Liberation newspaper on Monday. He
:19:07. > :19:11.was found inside a car in an underground car park in a western
:19:12. > :19:17.Paris suburb. He was semiconscious after taking an overdose of drugs.
:19:18. > :19:24.Police say it may have been a suicide attempt. He is Abdelhakim
:19:25. > :19:28.Dekhar. Nearly 20 years ago, he was the third man in an infamous
:19:29. > :19:32.shooting spree in Paris. Two young far left radicals bungled a hold-up
:19:33. > :19:40.and killed three policemen and the taxi driver. Abdelhakim Dekhar
:19:41. > :19:43.supplied them with a firearm. He served four years. Those who knew
:19:44. > :19:48.him described him as a delusional figure.
:19:49. > :19:52.TRANSLATION: He frequented alternative far left groups in
:19:53. > :19:55.France. People who were very marginal and very secret, but he was
:19:56. > :20:03.even more marginal, something of a delusional character. Left-wing
:20:04. > :20:08.activists soon became wary of him. He is now recovering under guard in
:20:09. > :20:13.hospital. His DNA links and unmistakably to the attacks early
:20:14. > :20:17.this week. It is a bizarre twist, the re-emergence after nearly 20
:20:18. > :20:21.years they a once notorious criminal. Police in Paris will want
:20:22. > :20:26.to know what on earth pushed him to take up the shot gun once again. Was
:20:27. > :20:32.it some pestering sense of injustice after the previous affair, or some
:20:33. > :20:40.political grudge? And why was the media his main target? First here,
:20:41. > :20:43.threatening at BFMTV. And then on Monday at Liberation newspaper, when
:20:44. > :20:50.he opened fire and very nearly killed a man. The Conservative MP,
:20:51. > :20:54.Tim Yeo, has been cleared by the parliamentary enquiry of misusing
:20:55. > :20:58.his role as chairman of the Energy and Climate Change Committee. He
:20:59. > :21:00.stepped aside in June while the Parliamentary Commissioner for
:21:01. > :21:03.standards investigated allegations that he has told undercover
:21:04. > :21:07.reporters he could lobby ministers on behalf of a private company.

:21:17. > :21:19.The Step Up To Serve campaign wants to get 50% of young people to
:21:20. > :21:25.participate in social action by 2020. It is also calling on adults
:21:26. > :21:32.to volunteer. Nicholas Witchel is at Buckingham Palace.
:21:33. > :21:36.The Prince of Wales will convene the leaders of Britain at Buckingham
:21:37. > :21:41.Palace to, quote, precisely the words that have been used about this
:21:42. > :21:45.by Clarence House. That conjures interesting possibilities for the
:21:46. > :21:48.future. This is an initiative by the Prince of Wales which,
:21:49. > :21:52.interestingly, is supported both by the Government and the opposition,
:21:53. > :21:56.to increase substantially the number of young people who are taking part
:21:57. > :22:00.in community service of some kind. The launch is taking place at
:22:01. > :22:05.Buckingham Palace at the moment. The Queen is not at Buckingham Palace,
:22:06. > :22:10.she is visiting the Shard in central London. But the Prince of Wales is
:22:11. > :22:17.there with the Prime Minister. This chimes with the big society
:22:18. > :22:21.ambitions. The ambition of this scheme is to double the number of
:22:22. > :22:27.young people between the ages of ten and 20 something like 1.7 million by
:22:28. > :22:31.the year 2020, who are participating in what they call practical action
:22:32. > :22:36.in the service of others. The Prince of Wales, in his speech a few
:22:37. > :22:39.moments ago, called this a huge and exciting challenge. It is his belief
:22:40. > :22:44.that this sort of structured activity helps not just the young
:22:45. > :22:47.people but society as a whole. Handicapped people, elderly people
:22:48. > :22:54.who perhaps they will be able to visit. The Queen has been getting a
:22:55. > :22:59.birds eye view of London from western Europe's tallest building,
:23:00. > :23:02.the Shard. The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh toured the eye-catching
:23:03. > :23:05.building as part of a visit for scheme which helps pay for some of
:23:06. > :23:09.the poorest students going to university. They met staff and
:23:10. > :23:14.recipients of the scheme, which is supported by the Shard. England

:23:33. > :23:37.on to end the day at 270 348. This is the year of the nonstop Ashes.
:23:38. > :23:40.One series ends, another begins and Brisbane bustled. Not a sell-out
:23:41. > :23:49.crowd, but they came in search of heroes and villains. There we go...
:23:50. > :23:58.Booze and worse from the crowd greeted the first bowl. Broad's
:23:59. > :24:02.response was rapid, Chris Rogers gone, Australia 12 41. David Warner
:24:03. > :24:06.spent the English summer as the man the crowd love to hate. The
:24:07. > :24:11.aggression at once flowed to his fist is better used on a ball.
:24:12. > :24:20.Australia's beef with Broad relates to his refusal to walk off court
:24:21. > :24:27.during the last Ashes. Mixed in his sights, Australia's hapten. Michael
:24:28. > :24:30.Clarke gone for one. If this test match was turning into a battle of
:24:31. > :24:40.the Ashes bad boys, here came victory for Stuart Broad. 49 for
:24:41. > :24:44.Warner and out. All of Australia's top four batsmen had fallen to
:24:45. > :24:47.Stuart Broad. The broader picture was Australia in tatters, six down,
:24:48. > :24:52.until a stand between Brad Haddin and Mitchell Johnson clawed back
:24:53. > :24:58.lost ground. Both made 50. The final session swung towards Australia but
:24:59. > :25:02.gap -- back came Broad. Perhaps now even the crowd have realised their
:25:03. > :25:07.chanting had backfired. I'm pleased my mum wasn't in the stadium. To be
:25:08. > :25:13.honest, I was singing along at one stage. It gets in your head and you
:25:14. > :25:22.find yourself listening. Obviously not adding the words in. I had
:25:23. > :25:31.braced myself to expect it. It was good fun. At the close, Australia
:25:32. > :25:35.were 273 48. The weary abuse hurled towards Broad sounded almost
:25:36. > :25:39.respectful. The surviving members of Monty Python have been announcing
:25:40. > :25:43.details of their comeback reunion performance at an eagerly awaited
:25:44. > :25:46.news conference. John Cleese, Eric idle, Michael Palin, Terry Gilliam
:25:47. > :25:56.and Terry Jones said they'd be doing a show at London's O2 Arena next
:25:57. > :26:00.summer. It is what many comedy fans have waited years for. The remaining
:26:01. > :26:06.members of the Monty Python team together on stage again. They were
:26:07. > :26:14.announcing a one-off reunion O2 Arena show to take place in summer
:26:15. > :26:19.2014. There is some new material. We will be stitching together some
:26:20. > :26:23.oldies. People really do want to see the old hits, but we don't want to
:26:24. > :26:37.do them in a predictable way. It will be a mix-up. Monty Python's...
:26:38. > :26:41.They were one of TV's boast successfully comedy acts during the
:26:42. > :26:45.1970s. They produced sketches and routine still famous today. Greene I
:26:46. > :26:59.didn't expect the Spanish Inquisition. Nobody expects the
:27:00. > :27:04.Spanish Inquisition! Confess! Run for four series and spawned spin
:27:05. > :27:09.offs ranging from books to records. The team also successfully branched
:27:10. > :27:12.out into films. Their first, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, made on a
:27:13. > :27:16.small budget between filming the third and fourth series of their TV
:27:17. > :27:23.show. The sixth member of the group, Graham Chapman, died in 1989.
:27:24. > :27:26.And, up until today, the remaining five have rarely appear together and
:27:27. > :27:29.even then dismissed any suggestions of a full-blown reunion. There will
:27:30. > :27:35.be those hoping that this will end up as more than just a one-off and
:27:36. > :27:38.that they will enjoy the experience so much that they will perhaps
:27:39. > :27:47.consider a new TV series or another film. A dramatic volcanic eruption
:27:48. > :27:51.in the Pacific Ocean has created a tiny new island off the coast of
:27:52. > :27:55.Japan. Pictures filmed by the Japanese Coast Guard showed clouds
:27:56. > :28:00.of heavy smoke and steam billowing over the newly formed Island, which
:28:01. > :28:04.is estimated to be around 200 metres in diameter. The last time a volcano
:28:05. > :28:10.in this area you ruptured was in the 1970s.
:28:11. > :28:18.The weather looks set to be settled and calm over the next few days.
:28:19. > :28:22.This afternoon is pretty pleasant. A lot of sunshine around, though we do
:28:23. > :28:26.have some showers around across eastern areas. The area of low
:28:27. > :28:33.pressure is slipping out onto the near continent. The area of high
:28:34. > :28:38.pressure will nudge in slowly over the next few days, settling the
:28:39. > :28:42.weather down. That said, we will continue to see brisk winds across
:28:43. > :28:47.the south-east corner of the UK, and some pretty heavy showers across the
:28:48. > :28:51.north-east, the Borders and Northumberland. The further west you
:28:52. > :28:55.are, it's a drier picture with the sunshine set to continue. Tonight,
:28:56. > :28:59.showers continue across the north-east of England and the
:29:00. > :29:04.south-east, where we have the keen north-easterly wind. It is set to
:29:05. > :29:12.turn much colder across Scotland and Northern Ireland. A widespread frost
:29:13. > :29:16.developing. Away from here, around the coast of England and Wales, it
:29:17. > :29:21.is generally a frost free night. Tomorrow morning, there will be a
:29:22. > :29:25.few showers across the Northern Isles and Cloutier, but for central
:29:26. > :29:31.and southern Scotland and Northern Ireland it is a cold, frosty start.
:29:32. > :29:35.Further south, a few showers affecting the north-east corner.
:29:36. > :29:40.Away from here, a lot of dry weather for Wales, the South West and the
:29:41. > :29:45.Midlands. Across the south-east we still have the niggling north-east
:29:46. > :29:50.wind and showers pushing into East Anglia and for Kent and Sussex.
:29:51. > :29:53.Those showers continue in the far south-east, eventually clearing
:29:54. > :29:58.away. For most places there will be a lot of sunshine, a perfect autumn
:29:59. > :30:02.day. A couple of showers affecting the Northern Isles but that is
:30:03. > :30:05.really it. Cold through Scotland in the Central Belt, a little bit
:30:06. > :30:08.milder the further south and east you are. This is the pressure
:30:09. > :30:14.picture through the course of Saturday and Sunday. High pressure
:30:15. > :30:18.dominating. It always stays out west, so it looks like we will have
:30:19. > :30:23.a run of very light northerly winds. High pressure doesn't always
:30:24. > :30:28.mean it is going to be sunny. Mainly dry for the weekend. Light winds.
:30:29. > :30:31.There will be variable amounts of cloud but also some sunshine. It
:30:32. > :30:36.will feel on the chilly side. Some sunshine around, feeling pleasant
:30:37. > :30:39.where it does. But where we get clear skies through the day, it will
:30:40. > :30:46.lead to frosty nights with the risk of some fog.
:30:47. > :30:52.Former members of an undercover unit used by the British Army in Northern
