:01:59. > :02:01.plane which was shot down over eastern Ukraine has arrived in the

:02:02. > :02:05.city of Kharkiv, which is controlled The bodies will be flown

:02:06. > :02:10.on to the Netherlands tomorrow. Pro-Russian separatists have also

:02:11. > :02:13.handed over the two black box flight They've also announced

:02:14. > :02:18.a ceasefire around the crash site - but there are renewed allegations

:02:22. > :02:29.ministers are meeting to discuss tightening sanctions against Russia

:02:30. > :02:31.because of its backing for the rebel separatist fighters blamed

:02:32. > :02:35.for shooting down the aircraft. Our correspondent Natalia Antelava

:02:36. > :02:44.sent this report. It took four days of tense

:02:45. > :02:50.negotiations for this to finally happen. And when it did rebels

:02:51. > :02:54.turned over the flight data recorders and they turned it into a

:02:55. > :02:58.ceremony. Journalists were summoned at midnight to witness the signing

:02:59. > :03:03.of what rebels called a memorandum of understanding. The rebel side

:03:04. > :03:09.represented by this man Aleksander Borodai, who is a Russian citizen

:03:10. > :03:13.and an alleged Russian intelligence operative. Now in the spotlight as a

:03:35. > :03:39.finally most of the bodies have arrived in the city of Cardiff which

:03:40. > :03:43.is under government control. TRANSLATION: As soon as a number of

:03:44. > :03:49.victims is ready for transport plane will leave for Eindhoven. The hope

:03:50. > :03:54.and expectation is that tomorrow at the end of the day the first plane

:03:55. > :03:57.would leave. -- Kharkiv. It does finally feel like a breakthrough but

:03:58. > :04:02.it is important to remember that the bodies of at least 18 passengers are

:04:03. > :04:12.still out here somewhere in these fields. The agonising wait for an

:04:13. > :04:20.service -- answers is not over. The examination of what missile was used

:04:21. > :04:28.and who fired it still remains to be done but the OSCE head says the

:04:29. > :04:33.wreckage looks different. From the pictures from two days ago the

:04:34. > :04:40.cockpit section and another section about two kilometres from here we

:04:41. > :04:45.observed uniformed men cutting into it with a diesel power saw. This

:04:46. > :04:47.enormous area of the crash holds clues which are possibly more

:04:48. > :04:51.important than the information from the black boxes. But there are fears

:04:52. > :04:56.it has been tampered with and it is in the middle of a war zone. The day

:04:57. > :05:02.the first investigators arrived Donetsk sauce and fresh clashes

:05:03. > :05:08.between pro-militiamen and government troops. Residents are

:05:09. > :05:13.feeling the pressure. Full access has been promised but experts feel

:05:14. > :05:22.the evidence littering these fields has already been lost. Let's go to

:05:23. > :05:30.the town of Kharkiv where our correspondence is. Richard Galpin,

:05:31. > :05:37.what happens next. -- correspondent. What is going to

:05:38. > :05:41.happen is that teams of forensic experts who are already in Kiev and

:05:42. > :05:47.have been waiting a while will go to the train to examine the bodies. We

:05:48. > :05:51.understand there is a team here from Britain as well as from Malaysia,

:05:52. > :05:55.Indonesia and Holland, all of the countries which have been affected.

:05:56. > :06:03.Once they have examined the bodies it will be a thorough process, and

:06:04. > :06:06.they will then take the bodies to an airport near here to be flown back

:06:07. > :06:13.to Holland. We expect the first flight to leave tomorrow. But we now

:06:14. > :06:18.understand it won't be all of the body is going on one flight. It

:06:19. > :06:21.looks like it is going to be several flights which will be required

:06:22. > :06:27.before all have been returned to Holland. And we know it is going to

:06:28. > :06:30.be a long process once they get back there for all of the testing that

:06:31. > :06:34.needs to be done, identification, critically before the families

:06:35. > :06:37.receive the bodies of their loved ones for burial.

:06:38. > :06:40.Well as we said European foreign ministers are meeting now

:06:41. > :06:41.in Brussels to discuss the possible tightening

:06:42. > :06:50.Our correspondent Ben Wright is there.

:06:51. > :06:56.I understand the meeting began with a one-minute silence to remember the

:06:57. > :07:00.victims of last week's disaster. The Dutch Foreign Minister spoke first

:07:01. > :07:04.and said there needed to be serious action taken against Russia, a view

:07:05. > :07:08.echoed by Britain and the Baltic states in particular. They think

:07:09. > :07:12.they must find a firm response today for the European Union to look

:07:13. > :07:15.credible. There has been talk of tough

:07:16. > :07:21.sanctions before, but this meeting is different. Russia's response to

:07:22. > :07:25.last week's disaster and its role in the Ukraine crisis has prompted

:07:26. > :07:32.calls for proper economic pressure to now be put on the Kremlin. This

:07:33. > :07:36.terrible incident happened in the first place because of Russia's

:07:37. > :07:38.support to the separatists in eastern Ukraine and because of the

:07:39. > :07:43.flow of heavy weapons from Russia into eastern Ukraine, and we have to

:07:44. > :07:47.address that issue today and I shall be addressing my colleagues and our

:07:48. > :07:50.partners to send a very clear and strong signal to Russia today.

:07:51. > :07:56.Europe has already put some sanctions in place. Since March the

:07:57. > :08:01.EU has targeted the 72 Russian and Ukrainian figures with these bands

:08:02. > :08:07.and asset freezes. Now there is talk of going further. -- Visa bands.

:08:08. > :08:11.They should be ready to impose further sanctions. These could

:08:12. > :08:15.include economic sanctions on Russia, such as suspending new

:08:16. > :08:20.investment in the country from the European investment bank. Almost 300

:08:21. > :08:26.people died when flight MH17 was brought down. 193 of them were

:08:27. > :08:31.Dutch. The country's Foreign Minister said there could be new

:08:32. > :08:36.economic penalties put on Moscow. But it is not simple. Europe is a

:08:37. > :08:40.patchwork of economies, each with their own relationship with Russia.

:08:41. > :08:45.Agreeing much tougher energy, trade or financial sanctions will be

:08:46. > :08:51.difficult to do because EU economies will pay a price too. In Australia

:08:52. > :08:55.today the Prime Minister Tony Abbott signed a book of condolences for the

:08:56. > :09:00.victims of last week's crash. Australia drafted a resolution that

:09:01. > :09:07.was agreed at the United Nations last night. We welcome Russia's

:09:08. > :09:11.support but no resolution would have been necessary if Russia had used

:09:12. > :09:14.its leverage with the separatists on Thursday cutting them to lay down

:09:15. > :09:18.their arms and leave the site to international experts. This was a

:09:19. > :09:23.charger Didac touched many nations and now there is intense diplomatic

:09:24. > :09:32.and economic pressure to rein in the rebels and negotiate an end to the

:09:33. > :09:39.crisis that caused it. -- diplomatic. My thought is that deep

:09:40. > :09:42.economic sanctions would be premature. I don't think it will

:09:43. > :09:47.happen today. They have talked about arms sales to Russia and France's

:09:48. > :09:52.under pressure about the imminent sale of two new warships to Russia.

:09:53. > :09:56.Again, concrete movement on that is unlikely. What we are likely to get

:09:57. > :10:01.is an agreement to add names and companies and entities to a list of

:10:02. > :10:04.people and companies close to Vladimir Putin and the Kremlin. They

:10:05. > :10:07.will be a commitment to do that but we will not get the names. The

:10:08. > :10:08.details will be spelt out in a communiqu? we get later this

:10:09. > :10:10.afternoon. And you see more about

:10:11. > :10:13.the investigation into the shooting down of the Malaysia Airlines plane

:10:14. > :10:17.on our website - the details of how United Nations officials say more

:10:18. > :10:29.than 100,000 people have been forced to take shelter in UN

:10:30. > :10:32.buildings in Gaza because of the violence - that's double the number

:10:33. > :10:35.of the Gaza conflict five years ago. Diplomatic efforts to broker

:10:36. > :10:38.a truce between Israel and Hamas have intensified with the

:10:39. > :10:39.UN Secretary General, Secretary of State John Kerry

:10:40. > :10:42.in Cairo. Mr Kerry says a is

:10:43. > :10:45.the long term goal. Our correspondent Paul Adams

:10:46. > :10:57.sent this report from Gaza. All over Gaza evidence of a new

:10:58. > :11:02.round of heavy bombardment. Two missiles struck this building last

:11:03. > :11:05.night. It is not clear if there was a warning. 11 people were killed.

:11:06. > :11:09.Rescue workers have been up there since early this morning looking for

:11:10. > :11:15.bodies. We can see one right next to them there, a foot is stuck between

:11:16. > :11:18.two bits of masonry. They are trying to get the body out but as you can

:11:19. > :11:26.see it is incredibly precarious and dangerous work. It is an office

:11:27. > :11:31.block. But last night there were civilians here, refugees from the

:11:32. > :11:33.devastated neighbourhood of Shejaiya attacked on Saturday. After more

:11:34. > :11:44.than two weeks it is getting harder and harder to hide. 11 persons

:11:45. > :11:54.killed without any... They came here to be safe. At Sheaffer hospital

:11:55. > :12:01.this woman is fighting for her life. Among thousands who failed to heed

:12:02. > :12:03.Israeli warnings to leave Shejaiya. She was making breakfast for a

:12:04. > :12:14.family of ten when their house was hit on Sunday morning. She's only

:12:15. > :12:20.survivor. Getting her out of the wreckage was a miracle in itself. We

:12:21. > :12:27.were with the rescue team on Sunday afternoon when they spotted a body

:12:28. > :12:30.buried under the concrete. EXPLOSION It was a dangerous rescue. Hamas

:12:31. > :12:37.gunmen had opened fire and Israel was responding. That they weren't

:12:38. > :12:43.going to give up. She was under the rubble for 12 hours. 12 hours? 12

:12:44. > :12:52.hours. She is lucky, she is a miracle, actually. I don't know how

:12:53. > :12:57.she could survive. She is lucky. A cousin keeps vigil outside her

:12:58. > :13:05.room. His job, one day, to tell her just how much she has lost. In the

:13:06. > :13:12.burns unit the doctors pause for midday prayers. Israel says its not

:13:13. > :13:14.at war with the people, but more than 600 of them have now died, most

:13:15. > :13:17.of them civilians. Let's speak to our correspondent

:13:18. > :13:28.Chris Morris who's in Jerusalem. Israeli casualties are also

:13:29. > :13:31.increasing and there are reports of a missing soldier, some confusion

:13:32. > :13:37.there. What is happening there and what is it doing to the mood there?

:13:38. > :13:40.If anything I think the relatively high military death toll, much

:13:41. > :13:45.higher than last time they went in on the ground in Gaza is increasing

:13:46. > :13:47.the sense of solidarity in Israel. There was an American citizen

:13:48. > :13:54.fighting in the IDF who was killed in some -- on Sunday and an appeal

:13:55. > :13:58.went out on Facebook to attend his funeral because his family are in

:13:59. > :14:02.the United States and thousands of people turned up last night. While

:14:03. > :14:06.there are clearly Israelis who feel uncomfortable with the terrible

:14:07. > :14:10.civilian casualties in Gaza there is certainly a majority that support

:14:11. > :14:14.the fact this offensive is taking place and the government and

:14:15. > :14:18.military efforts to degrade Hamas's military capabilities. As for the

:14:19. > :14:21.missing soldier, the Israelis said on Sunday that seven soldiers in an

:14:22. > :14:26.armoured personnel carrier were killed when an explosion happened

:14:27. > :14:32.close to that vehicle. They have only managed to recover six of the

:14:33. > :14:37.bodies. On Sunday night Hamas claimed they had captured an Israeli

:14:38. > :14:40.soldier. They showed his ID card on the screen. But they haven't shown

:14:41. > :14:45.any video or photographs of him so it is not clear whether he's dead or

:14:46. > :14:48.alive. For the Israelis is missing presumed dead, but if Hamas have

:14:49. > :15:02.captured him alive he will then previous capture, he was in

:15:03. > :15:06.captivity for five years and was only released in return for hundreds

:15:07. > :15:12.of Palestinian prisoners being released from Israeli jails.

:15:13. > :15:14.The Home Secretary has announced a judge-led public inquiry

:15:15. > :15:17.into the death of the former Russian spy, Alexander Litvinenko.

:15:18. > :15:19.He was poisoned in London eight years ago with the

:15:20. > :15:22.Theresa May says the inquiry will examine claims that

:15:23. > :15:38.The death of Alexander Litvinenko was slow, painful, and very public.

:15:39. > :15:43.I'm in bad shape commonly told the BBC from his hospital bed, I have

:15:44. > :15:50.poisoned. The poison was in fact radioactive polonium, it is thought

:15:51. > :15:54.that a cup of tea was laced with it as the former KGB spy sat with two

:15:55. > :15:58.other former Russian agents at the millennium Hotel in London. The

:15:59. > :16:05.mystery of exactly what happened has never been solved. Why a public

:16:06. > :16:09.enquiry now, Home Secretary? No response but in a written statement

:16:10. > :16:14.this morning Home Secretary Theresa May announced the terms of a judge

:16:15. > :16:19.led public enquiry. The family of Alexander Litvinenko have welcomed

:16:20. > :16:33.the news, his widow has said: "I am relieved and delighted with the

:16:34. > :16:40.She and the police believe that this man was one of those who should be

:16:41. > :16:44.held accountable, he is a former security officer, now a Russian MP,

:16:45. > :16:50.wanted in connection with the murder. He and a second suspect both

:16:51. > :16:56.denied being involved. The two men remain in Russia. What happened over

:16:57. > :16:58.a cup of tea at this hotel eight years ago has soured relations

:16:59. > :17:04.between Britain and Russia ever since. Today's announcement comes at

:17:05. > :17:08.a new low point, of course, with allegations of Russian involvement

:17:09. > :17:11.in the shooting down of the Malaysians airliner. It is

:17:12. > :17:11.understood the timing is coincidence.

:17:12. > :17:13.Malaysians airliner. It is understood the timing is It is

:17:14. > :17:20.likely to lead to further tensions between the two countries. It comes

:17:21. > :17:26.a few hours before the European Union's gathering to discuss

:17:27. > :17:30.sanctions against Russia. From this point of view, obviously, they will

:17:31. > :17:34.not be happy in the Kremlin. After nearly a decade, the explanation of

:17:35. > :17:36.why Alexander Litvinenko was murdered, and in such an appalling

:17:37. > :17:46.manner, may be drawing closer. To political corresponding Norman

:17:47. > :17:50.Smith is in Westminster. John has touched on it, raised eyebrows about

:17:51. > :17:53.the timing. Downing Street are adamant it has nothing to do with

:17:54. > :17:57.the current crisis in our relations with Russia, over the downing of the

:17:58. > :18:05.Malaysians airliner, it is not meant as a retaliatory strike, it is not

:18:06. > :18:08.some kind of surgery sanction. -- surrogates sanction. It was forced

:18:09. > :18:12.by a court ruling and the Parliamentary timetable. I think

:18:13. > :18:15.that is almost certainly not how it will be seen in Moscow, because the

:18:16. > :18:20.issue of Alexander Litvinenko has been dormant for so long, because it

:18:21. > :18:25.is such an incendiary charge, the killing of a British citizen, on

:18:26. > :18:29.British soil. Above all, by the nature of the enquiry, this is not

:18:30. > :18:33.some fusty dusty enquiry carried out by a civil servant in some remote

:18:34. > :18:36.part of Whitehall, this will be a full-blooded, judge led public

:18:37. > :18:42.enquiry, just like the lesson enquiry and the enquiry into mid

:18:43. > :18:48.Staffordshire, and it will begin very quickly, by the end of this

:18:49. > :18:52.month. All of that on top of the fact that David Cameron has been

:18:53. > :18:55.leading the charge for tougher sanctions and pressure on President

:18:56. > :18:59.Vladimir Putin. Yesterday David Cameron said the West's relations

:19:00. > :19:03.with Russia may need to change, it seems to me that our relations with

:19:04. > :19:07.Russia are already changing. Thanks.

:19:08. > :19:14.Top story this lunch time: A train carrying the remains of passengers

:19:15. > :19:22.killed in the Malaysia airlines crash in eastern Ukraine has arrived

:19:23. > :19:26.in the government-controlled city of Kharkiv from where the victims will

:19:27. > :19:32.be flown to the Netherlands. And, is it really one year ago? One is one

:19:33. > :19:36.today. Hundreds of would-be sleuths have dressed up for charity, to have

:19:37. > :19:40.the home of Arthur Conan Doyle turned into a museum. Thing is

:19:41. > :19:56.hotting up again, we will have a full weather round up at 1:30pm.

:19:57. > :19:59.The British Government and Unicef are co-hosting a summit in London

:20:00. > :20:02.today which aims to eradicate female genital mutilation and child

:20:03. > :20:04.The Pakistani teenager, Malala Yousafzai, is among 500

:20:05. > :20:07.delegates from 50 countries attending the Girl Summit.

:20:08. > :20:10.It's estimated that up to 170,000 women and girls living

:20:11. > :20:12.in England and Wales could have undergone FGM.

:20:13. > :20:16.Our correspondent Sangita Myska reports.

:20:17. > :20:23.It is a painful practice which has no health benefits but carries with

:20:24. > :20:25.it the risk of death, female genital mutilation is a practice deeply

:20:26. > :20:31.rooted in some African and Middle Eastern cultures. Sophia Ahmed, who

:20:32. > :20:42.now lives in Bristol, suffered FGM in Somalia, as a rite of passage.

:20:43. > :20:52.They hold us very tightly, I could not defend myself. It was really

:20:53. > :20:57.painful. It was horrible. It is thought around 20,000 girls could be

:20:58. > :21:04.at risk of FGM here in Britain, between infancy and the age of 15.

:21:05. > :21:07.Speaking at an international FGM conference in London, David Cameron

:21:08. > :21:13.underlined his commitment to tackling the issue. It is such a

:21:14. > :21:18.simple but noble and good ambition and that is to outlaw the practices

:21:19. > :21:22.of female genital mutilation, and childhood and early forced marriage,

:21:23. > :21:28.outlawing them everywhere, for everyone, within this generation.

:21:29. > :21:33.That is the aim and the ambition. Government plans announced today in

:21:34. > :21:37.full a 1.4 minion pounds package of measures, that involve the

:21:38. > :21:41.introduction of laws to prosecute parents who fail to protect their

:21:42. > :21:45.daughters, and the creation of civil orders which could place girls under

:21:46. > :21:50.the protection of the court. -- one 4p. The government is also taking

:21:51. > :21:54.the opportunity at this summit to iterate other plans to make it

:21:55. > :21:57.mandatory for social workers, health care workers and teachers to report

:21:58. > :22:03.signs of female genital mutilations. I get to do so, could result in

:22:04. > :22:07.court action. FGM has been illegal here in Britain for nearly 30 years,

:22:08. > :22:12.so far, there has never been a successful prosecution. --

:22:13. > :22:17.?1,400,000. The measures have been given a cautious welcome by those at

:22:18. > :22:22.the conference. What we need to get right is we need to get right the

:22:23. > :22:25.terminology we used to ask the women because they may not understand it

:22:26. > :22:28.from their communities as mutilation. We need to talk about

:22:56. > :22:57.The investigation, led by former anti-terror police

:22:58. > :23:00.chief Peter Clarke, concluded that there had been "co-ordinated,

:23:01. > :23:05.deliberate and sustained action "by a number of individuals to

:23:11. > :23:18.It was this letter, titled Trojan horse, claiming governors, teachers

:23:19. > :23:22.and parents would liberally taking control of schools to impose their

:23:23. > :23:26.own narrow religious agenda, which started a widespread enquiry. This

:23:27. > :23:30.man, Peter Clarke, used to investigate the most serious terror

:23:31. > :23:35.crimes and now he is charged with investigating Birmingham classrooms.

:23:36. > :23:40.He has found an aggressive Islamist agenda, leaving children potentially

:23:41. > :23:44.more vulnerable. Vulnerable to becoming intolerant, vulnerable to

:23:45. > :23:48.not being able to play their full role in a vibrant, multicultural

:23:49. > :23:52.modern Britain. Potentially because they have been told to be

:23:53. > :23:58.unquestioning in some way 's, potentially more vulnerable to

:23:59. > :24:01.radicalisation. Peter Clark has confirmed there was evidence of a

:24:02. > :24:04.plot, saying there was a coordinated, deliberate and

:24:05. > :24:09.sustained action why a number of associated individuals who also

:24:10. > :24:17.expels, endorse or fail to challenge extremist opinions. The BBC was the

:24:18. > :24:22.first broadcaster invited into one of the schools, it it has been

:24:23. > :24:27.placed in special measures and the governors have stood down, other

:24:28. > :24:29.schools face similar sanctions. Birmingham City Council has been

:24:30. > :24:33.accused of not acting quickly enough, it will now have a new

:24:34. > :24:39.commissioner, answering directly to the Education Secretary. This report

:24:40. > :24:42.confirms the pattern that has been identified, the actions of a small

:24:43. > :24:45.number of individuals in some schools represented a serious risk

:24:46. > :24:49.to the safeguarding of children and the quality of education being

:24:50. > :24:52.provided. We are taking action to put things right and I will not

:24:53. > :24:56.hesitate to act in any schools were serious concerns come to light in

:24:57. > :25:00.future. And enquiry of this size has never been undertaken before,

:25:01. > :25:04.findings by Peter Clark are not the end of the matter, police are still

:25:05. > :25:14.investigating and a number of people are on bail. -- an enquiry.

:25:15. > :25:17.There's just one day to go until the Glasgow 2014

:25:18. > :25:20.6,500 people will stay in the athlete's village,

:25:21. > :25:22.an area the size of 54 football pitches, purpose-built

:25:23. > :25:26.Last week, an outbreak of norovirus affected the village -

:25:27. > :25:30.Our correspondent Laura Bicker has been given access to

:25:34. > :25:36.the athletes' new home. although they have not had to travel too far,

:25:37. > :25:40.Team Scotland is determined to make its presence known. It is

:25:41. > :25:43.incredible, we are so happy it is here, it makes us feel special.

:25:44. > :25:50.Walking around the village, wearing blue colours, it is great. People

:25:51. > :25:54.saying good luck, it is great. Each team has its own section of village,

:25:55. > :26:00.with the Welsh using it to warm up with a bit of volleyball. Their

:26:01. > :26:06.neighbours, over the makeshift seven crossing, are in the lions den! Team

:26:07. > :26:11.England will be cooling off after competing in one of these, it is an

:26:12. > :26:15.ice bath. Then there is the room of pain, for physiotherapy. We are at

:26:16. > :26:19.the higher echelon of human performance, tiny little differences

:26:20. > :26:24.make all the difference, they can change a place of the podium and

:26:25. > :26:29.onto the podium. Just with the smallest of tweaks. This athletes

:26:30. > :26:33.village has grown out of the east end, a number of families and

:26:34. > :26:40.businesses were moved out to create this, home for 6500 athletes. But

:26:41. > :26:46.come December, it will all be turned back into housing. 700 of these

:26:47. > :26:51.energy-efficient homes will be for sale and rent once the games are

:26:52. > :26:56.over. But for now, having Mo Farah and you bolt as neighbours is

:26:57. > :27:04.providing entertainment for people in this part of Glasgow. They are

:27:05. > :27:09.quite nice, they are not too noisy. I am quite nice myself! It has been

:27:10. > :27:13.a bit of a nightmare up until now but now you can feel the buzz around

:27:14. > :27:18.and the excitement. I'm glad to be a part of it. Any believe the athletes

:27:19. > :27:23.village will be the most significant legacy of these games. Building on

:27:24. > :27:27.the city 's past, creating a new future. It may have come at a cost

:27:28. > :27:34.and not without controversy, but now that it is here, the attitude in

:27:35. > :27:39.Glasgow seems very much to be, bring it on! -- city's past.

:27:40. > :27:41.Seven million people in the UK watched as Prince George was

:28:03. > :28:04.father outside of the private maternity wing of Saint Mary 's

:28:05. > :28:08.Hospital in London. One year after his birth, here he is, a confident

:28:09. > :28:12.that a boy, according to the photographer, who took these

:28:13. > :28:14.pictures of him with William and Catherine at an exhibition of

:28:15. > :28:18.butterflies at the Natural History Museum. Like everyone you're old

:28:19. > :28:52.commonly appears to be becoming ever more curious.

:28:53. > :29:12.For his birthday there will be presents, a party at Kensington

:29:13. > :29:20.Much of the UK, not just sunny spells today but mainly dry for the

:29:21. > :29:24.rest of the week, there will be one or two showers here and then, not

:29:25. > :29:28.sunny everywhere, there is a bit of clout as the satellite image shows,

:29:29. > :29:31.parts of Norfolk and Kent and across the far west of Northern Ireland,

:29:32. > :29:35.the cloud is that enough here for one or two showers, but generally,

:29:36. > :29:39.it is a cracking summer 's afternoon with temperatures climbing higher

:29:40. > :29:45.and higher. In the east, low cloud, clinging to the Norfolk coast, it

:29:46. > :29:48.will be cooler, and there will be conditions of clout around northern

:29:49. > :29:51.Scotland, pegging back the temperatures into the teens.

:29:52. > :29:58.Temperatures climbing, 25 degrees lightly. -- cloud. There may be one

:29:59. > :30:02.or two showers in Northern Ireland, but for England and Wales, dry and

:30:03. > :30:07.fine, the cloud in the EEC will be keeping things cool, and on the

:30:08. > :30:12.south coast, 30 degrees is possible this afternoon. -- the cloud in the

:30:13. > :30:15.East. Beautiful evening for the rest of us, the chance in the night in

:30:16. > :30:21.one or two showers and we draw in the mist and low cloud from the

:30:22. > :30:24.North Sea for many eastern areas. Again it is a pretty worn one, with

:30:25. > :30:30.temperatures in urban areas stained between 14 and 17 degrees. Now, we

:30:31. > :30:37.start off with a lot of clout, that is going to melt back to the coast.

:30:38. > :30:41.-- cloud. But some strips may stay grey. There is a likelihood of one

:30:42. > :30:45.or two showers across South Wales and south-west England. Very hit and

:30:46. > :30:51.miss, potentially heavy. With more of a breeze blowing tomorrow but in

:30:52. > :30:55.the south, it could be 30 degrees. It will be more cool in the

:30:56. > :30:59.north-east. Eastern Scotland may be fresh but a beautiful balmy day in

:31:00. > :31:03.Glasgow. There is just the chance, there is a chance, of seeing a

:31:04. > :31:07.shower for the opening ceremony of the Commonwealth Games. If your mind

:31:08. > :31:11.is drawn to Europe, going on holiday, damages:

:31:12. > :31:17.Pretty comparable with much of the Mediterranean, -- temperatures.

:31:18. > :31:24.Most of the UK will be dry, on Thursday. Still a breeze in the

:31:25. > :31:28.south-east, still some showers. Wales and south-west England, one or

:31:29. > :31:33.two heavy once possible, and some clout on some of the eastern coast.

:31:34. > :31:38.-- cloud. For most of us, the fine weather is going to continue.

:31:39. > :31:43.Increasing risk showers but nothing like the widespread intense

:31:44. > :31:45.downpours of last weekend. For most of us, the weather is set fair.
