:00:14. > :00:17.warning about the so-called Islamic State militants. 40 countries,

:00:18. > :00:22.including ten Arab states meet in Paris to sign up to a collision to

:00:23. > :00:28.fight IS in Iraq and Syria. We will get the latest live from the French

:00:29. > :00:31.capital. Also this lunch time... I am in Edinburgh, with just three

:00:32. > :00:38.days of campaigning to go before people go to the polls.

:00:39. > :00:42.Alex Salmond and David Cameron are both out i making the final push for

:00:43. > :00:46.yes and no to independence. Two British tourists have been found

:00:47. > :00:52.murdered on a beach in southern Thailand. 5, 500 jobs at risk as

:00:53. > :00:59.phones for you goes into administration. The mission which

:01:00. > :01:01.aims to land on a Comet later this year has identified which it thinks

:01:02. > :01:10.is the safest place to sit down. Energy bosses face questions about

:01:11. > :01:14.exploding pavements after a lucky escape for a van driver. 30,000

:01:15. > :01:30.front-line workers have been attacked while on duty.

:01:31. > :01:37.Good afternoon. Welcome to the BBC News. The French President, Francois

:01:38. > :01:41.Hollande, has said there's no time to lose in the fight against the

:01:42. > :01:45.militant group which calls itself Islamic State. Speaking oh at the

:01:46. > :01:49.opening of an international conference in Paris, he said the

:01:50. > :01:55.jihadists posed a global threat which needed a global response. He

:01:56. > :02:01.also called for complete support for moderate rebels in Syria fighting

:02:02. > :02:04.the regime of President Assad. Our security correspondent reports.

:02:05. > :02:09.David Haines, murdered. James Foley, murdered.

:02:10. > :02:14.Steven Sotloff, murdered. The recent beheading of these three western

:02:15. > :02:18.hostages in Syria, by the so-called Islamic State has called galvanise

:02:19. > :02:22.world leaders to taking decisive action.

:02:23. > :02:27.They arrived today from 30 countries for a conference in Paris with a

:02:28. > :02:31.rare unity of purpose - a US-brokered extremists that the

:02:32. > :02:37.extremists of Islamic State must be uprooted from the Middle East. It

:02:38. > :02:42.opened with a warning from Iraq. The victims of the occupation are

:02:43. > :02:45.from all religions and ethnic groups, this terrorist organisation

:02:46. > :02:50.has killed elderly, children, men and women. It aims to establish a

:02:51. > :02:53.state which will represent a base for further action throughout the

:02:54. > :02:58.Middle East and the world. That base is already half

:02:59. > :03:02.established. This map shows the part of Iraqs and Syria now under control

:03:03. > :03:07.of Islamic State. They have lost some ground in Iraq. In Syria it is

:03:08. > :03:13.more complicated. A country torn apart by three years

:03:14. > :03:18.of civil war, is seeing rebel fight rebel, with the Islamic State the

:03:19. > :03:22.most powerful force, opposing the regime of President Assad. What will

:03:23. > :03:30.dislodge them? US air strikes, launched from this carrier in the

:03:31. > :03:35.Gulf, have driven back Islamic State fighters from Iraq's strategic

:03:36. > :03:39.damns. RAFFor they dors have -- RAFFor they dors will be joined by

:03:40. > :03:43.French jets. There is a general acceptance this will take a

:03:44. > :03:50.concerted international effort on many levels.

:03:51. > :03:55.It ignores borders and it even claims to establish a state. So,

:03:56. > :04:00.this is a global threat and the response has to be a global

:04:01. > :04:04.response. In the Islamic State capital, the

:04:05. > :04:08.jihadists have had three months to consolidate their grip on power.

:04:09. > :04:12.Hiding and then killing hostage after hostage. The latest to be

:04:13. > :04:17.threatened with beheading is a Briton, Alan Henning - a taxi driver

:04:18. > :04:21.from Salford, kidnapped while delivering aid to Syria's refugees.

:04:22. > :04:29.Let's speak to our correspondent, who is in Paris. And what are

:04:30. > :04:33.ministers there hoping to achieve? Well, I think the Americans in

:04:34. > :04:35.particular have been working towards getting some specifics about what

:04:36. > :04:41.different countries are able to contribute to this campaign. This

:04:42. > :04:44.conference comes as part of a long negotiation over exactly that.

:04:45. > :04:48.America has already got some ten Arab countries to sign up to this.

:04:49. > :04:52.Some of whom have said they would be happy to carry out air strikes. It

:04:53. > :04:55.is looking for countries to train and equip the Iraqi army to stop

:04:56. > :05:00.fighters going to join Islamic State, to stop money being funnelled

:05:01. > :05:04.to them. It is looking around to see which countries might be able to

:05:05. > :05:07.help out with the political and the security aspects of this campaign.

:05:08. > :05:11.You heard President Hollande there, openening the conference, saying

:05:12. > :05:14.this is a global problem. Every country is involved in trying to

:05:15. > :05:20.solve it, he said. Thank you very much.

:05:21. > :05:23.With three days of campaigning left before Thursday's Scottish

:05:24. > :05:27.independence vote, both sides are intensifying their battle to win

:05:28. > :05:32.votes. The First Minister and Prime Minister are hitting the campaign

:05:33. > :05:39.trail again. Jane Hill is in Edinburgh for you. Thank you very

:05:40. > :05:43.much. Yes, welcome to Holyrood. A matter of days left for both sides

:05:44. > :05:48.to persuade those crucial undecideds to join their camp. David Cameron

:05:49. > :05:52.will be here in Scotland later. We think he will warn voters there'll

:05:53. > :05:56.be no way back if they decide to leave the UK on Thursday. And then

:05:57. > :06:00.this morning Alex Salmond was out and about meeting business leaders,

:06:01. > :06:08.arguing a "yes" vote will help to grow Scotland's economy. This report

:06:09. > :06:14.contains flash photography. The shipyards in the Clyde which

:06:15. > :06:18.built the QE2 have shrunk in numbers and staff in recent years, now

:06:19. > :06:22.dependant on Government contracts the former Defence Secretary told

:06:23. > :06:27.workers a @yard in Glasgow that independence would lead to an

:06:28. > :06:32.uncertain future. A "no" vote is to protect jobs. It is about skilled

:06:33. > :06:36.jobs, as it has in the past. A vote yes for separation will put all

:06:37. > :06:42.these jobs at risk. Defence jobs, engineering jobs. Jobs in ship

:06:43. > :06:47.building in the Clyde. Apren ta siss here say Alex Salmond

:06:48. > :06:52.will not meet them to discuss their concerns. The SNP said he did

:06:53. > :06:56.discuss job prospects with the trade unions. In the final three days both

:06:57. > :07:00.sides are trying to eliminate the negatives. Labour are trying to stop

:07:01. > :07:04.the drift of their supporters towards a "yes" vote as a means of

:07:05. > :07:09.kicking the Conservatives. Across the country Alex Salmond is trying

:07:10. > :07:15.to sink the accusation that the "yes" campaign is anti-business. At

:07:16. > :07:19.Edinburgh Airport he said that the warnings flying in from the banks

:07:20. > :07:24.about independence were simply politically motivated. There are

:07:25. > :07:29.only one or two who were gulled into the Prime Minister's scaremongering

:07:30. > :07:33.campaign. This is the difference - these Scottish businesses have

:07:34. > :07:39.substantial confidence for an independent Scotland. They see it

:07:40. > :07:44.creating a more prosperous economy. He was meeting those who were

:07:45. > :07:47.optimistic. Among them the director of Stage Coach. Later today David

:07:48. > :07:51.Cameron will travel to Scotland to tell voters there's no going back

:07:52. > :07:55.from independence. He knows it is possible he'll be the Prime Minister

:07:56. > :08:00.who presided over the ending of a 300--year-old political union. He is

:08:01. > :08:05.determined to do what he can to prevent it.

:08:06. > :08:11.Well, let's talk to our assistant political editor Norman Smith, who

:08:12. > :08:16.is waiting for David Cameron. Are we going to hear, presumably, Norman, a

:08:17. > :08:22.familiar refrain from the Prime Minister? There are not going to be

:08:23. > :08:28.any new announcements, no new arguments. What Mr Cameron will seek

:08:29. > :08:34.to stress is this is a once in a lifetime vote. He will urge Scots

:08:35. > :08:38.not to use it as an occasion to protest against austerity or the

:08:39. > :08:42.coalition Government or the Conservatives, but to recognise this

:08:43. > :08:52.vote lasts forever and is much bigger than any passing Government

:08:53. > :08:55.or any particular policy. He also have more emotional language that we

:08:56. > :08:58.saw last time, when he tried to make a positive case for the union rather

:08:59. > :09:05.than going back to arguments about the economy and sterling and Europe.

:09:06. > :09:11.Very lastly, expect him to mention one D Beckham - David Beckham - who

:09:12. > :09:22.has come out and urged Scots to remain in the Union. How far the

:09:23. > :09:28.support of an English football icon is probably a different point. When

:09:29. > :09:33.we look at the people he's been surrounding himself with there in

:09:34. > :09:38.Edinburgh, it takes us back to that old political adage, "it's the

:09:39. > :09:43.economy, stupid." Alex Salmond very much trying to press the case for

:09:44. > :09:46.the economic benefits for independence, saying it is

:09:47. > :09:50.ridiculous to suggest that a country that was the home of Adam Smith

:09:51. > :09:55.cannot run itself own economy and again repeating that criticism of

:09:56. > :10:00.David Cameron for bullying businesses and banks to come out and

:10:01. > :10:06.criticise Scotland's prospects if it chooses go alone. Alex Salmond

:10:07. > :10:10.stepping into that controversy over whether the Queen yesterday was

:10:11. > :10:15.signalling her support for the Union, when on her way out of church

:10:16. > :10:20.she said to on lookers she hoped people would think very carefully

:10:21. > :10:27.about the future. The SNP is saying that was referendum small talk. Mr

:10:28. > :10:30.Salmond says she has been absolutely impartial and Buckingham Palace this

:10:31. > :10:34.lunch time insisting that the Queen believes it is up to the Scottish

:10:35. > :10:39.people and the Scottish people alone to decide this referendum.

:10:40. > :10:44.Norman, thank you very much. Well, a quick remind erd that you

:10:45. > :10:49.will find more on all the key development on the campaign on the

:10:50. > :11:07.BBC website: From here in Edinburgh, Simon, back

:11:08. > :11:11.to you. Thank you very much. Two British tourists have been killed in

:11:12. > :11:18.Thailand. The bodies of the man and woman were discovered not far from

:11:19. > :11:21.their beach hut. Our correspondent has just sent this

:11:22. > :11:25.report. The bodies of a young man and woman were discovered on this

:11:26. > :11:28.beach early this morning. Both were identified as British. Police

:11:29. > :11:33.re-enforcements were brought in from the mainland to help with the

:11:34. > :11:38.investigation. All boats were blocked from leaving the island. Koh

:11:39. > :11:42.Tao lies in the gulf of Thailand. It is popular with divers and normally

:11:43. > :11:45.quieter than better known neighbouring islands. The Foreign

:11:46. > :11:54.Office issued a statement, saying:

:11:55. > :12:00.Violent crime against tourists is relatively uncommon in Thailand, but

:12:01. > :12:02.there have been a number of high-profile attacks at beach

:12:03. > :12:17.resorts in recent years. This looks to be a particularly

:12:18. > :12:20.gruesome attack on this island? Yes, the police have described some

:12:21. > :12:24.horrifying injuries that were found. That I were fairly confident of

:12:25. > :12:29.finding the culprits. They believe they have sealed the island off and

:12:30. > :12:32.you can only get there by boat, quickly enough this morning, to have

:12:33. > :12:35.stopped the perpetrators from getting away. At the moment, they

:12:36. > :12:39.are going through the process of questioning the hotel where this man

:12:40. > :12:43.and woman stayed and any people who saw them last night. It is believed

:12:44. > :12:48.they may have taken part in a late-night party on the beach, just

:12:49. > :12:51.before they were killed. Usually the police here do move

:12:52. > :12:57.efficiently in dealing with these type of crimes. They are not

:12:58. > :13:00.unknown. Although violent crime against tourists is rarely uncommon.

:13:01. > :13:04.They are aware of the potential damage to the tourist industry. We

:13:05. > :13:07.have seen a great deal of police attention, very quickly, on that

:13:08. > :13:10.island this morning, trying to go through the small number. It is not

:13:11. > :13:14.a well developed island of people staying there and see if they can

:13:15. > :13:23.find the culprit. Thank you very much. More than 5, 500 jobs are at

:13:24. > :13:27.risk at Phones 4U. It was put into administration last night after two

:13:28. > :13:30.mobile networks it sells contracts for decided to end their

:13:31. > :13:42.relationship with the retailer. Phones 4U were one of the stores you

:13:43. > :13:45.went to for independent advice They grew rapidly, but suddenly

:13:46. > :14:10.their future looks bleak. Customers arrived confused, but this

:14:11. > :14:16.man said he was not surprised. I will just go down to one of the

:14:17. > :14:22.other phone shops. It was the decisions by Vodafone followed by EE

:14:23. > :14:26.to end their relationship with Phones 4U which tipped the company

:14:27. > :14:40.over the edge. In a statement, the owners of Phones 4U attacked

:14:41. > :14:46.Vodafone, saying... But Vodafone says it has been told it has little

:14:47. > :14:49.flexibility come due to its debt repayment obligations. The

:14:50. > :14:52.competition to sell these is getting ever more intense, and the profit

:14:53. > :14:57.margins for the phone networks are getting slimmer. They have all got

:14:58. > :15:02.their own shops on the high street, so they are not keen to share any

:15:03. > :15:09.profits they do make with the likes of Phones 4U. It was Sir John

:15:10. > :15:15.Caudwell who grew Phones 4U from one small Midlands dealership to a

:15:16. > :15:19.national chain. In 2006, he sold it for ?1.5 billion to private

:15:20. > :15:23.investors. It has been sold on again since, in the process, acquiring

:15:24. > :15:28.plenty of debt. One major business figure says we will miss it. There

:15:29. > :15:32.will definitely be a lack of competition if Phones 4U disappears.

:15:33. > :15:38.The internet has caused the demise of many high retailers, like the

:15:39. > :15:42.virgin Megastore is. Staff at the Staffordshire headquarters were

:15:43. > :15:45.leaving with their possessions this morning. The administrators will now

:15:46. > :15:49.try to find a buyer, but there is little optimism that these shops

:15:50. > :15:57.will be back in the telephones business any time soon. With me now

:15:58. > :16:02.is a Simon Gompertz. What about customers, some of whom will have

:16:03. > :16:08.just got a new phone? Yes, the problem is this coincides with the

:16:09. > :16:12.launch of the iPhone 6. A lot of people at the end of last week, tens

:16:13. > :16:17.of thousands, I understand, will have ordered iPhone 6s through

:16:18. > :16:20.Phones 4U and will be expecting them to turn up at the end of this week.

:16:21. > :16:25.It does not look as though they will turn up. If anybody has ordered a

:16:26. > :16:28.phone from the company, they are promising a refund on the upfront

:16:29. > :16:34.payment you made, which could be hundreds of pounds. And then, once

:16:35. > :16:37.it has not turned up, you have signed a contract, but it will not

:16:38. > :16:40.be activated, so the monthly payments will not go out. What about

:16:41. > :16:47.people who have already got a contract coverage? In fact, their

:16:48. > :16:51.contract will be one of the other companies, not with Phones 4U, and

:16:52. > :16:55.that will simply carry on. After a couple of years if you think you are

:16:56. > :17:03.due an upgrade of your handset, that will still haven't happen, you just

:17:04. > :17:07.get in touch with EE, for example. If you have put your phone in for

:17:08. > :17:11.repair, then it is likely to centre back, but not to the shop, it will

:17:12. > :17:16.come back to your address at no extra charge. It is unclear at the

:17:17. > :17:19.moment about if you have subscribed for an insurance policy, but that

:17:20. > :17:22.will become clear in the next couple of days.

:17:23. > :17:26.A global threat - needing a global response.

:17:27. > :17:28.President Hollande's warning about the so-called Islamic state

:17:29. > :17:38.A site is chosen for Europe's space mission to land on a comet.

:17:39. > :17:43.Later on BBC London - the biggest rail franchise on the network gets

:17:44. > :17:48.up and running today, but will passengers notice the difference?

:17:49. > :17:54.And the play preparing for its West End transfer.

:17:55. > :17:58.An inquest into the deaths of six Britons and a

:17:59. > :18:01.UK-based Colombian killed during a militant attack on a gas plant

:18:02. > :18:06.In January last year, a group linked to al-Qaeda stormed

:18:07. > :18:12.Algerian forces laid siege, and by the time they regained

:18:13. > :18:15.control, 40 workers and at least 29 militants were dead.

:18:16. > :18:19.The inquest's coroner stood down last week to be replaced

:18:20. > :18:21.by a judge, after the Government said it might present

:18:22. > :18:33.Our correspondent Andy Moore is at the court.

:18:34. > :18:39.Simon, there was silence in court as the names of all 40 workers who were

:18:40. > :18:43.killed were read out. There was emotion, there were tears, as loved

:18:44. > :18:47.ones paid tribute to those people, including the seven British

:18:48. > :18:50.residents who died. Wives, brothers, fathers, stood in front of

:18:51. > :18:57.a picture of their loved one and paid tribute to them.

:18:58. > :19:01.At dawn on January 16, 2013, gunfire erupted at this gas plant in the

:19:02. > :19:06.Algerian desert. Heavily armed militants stormed the site. Dozens

:19:07. > :19:09.of Western workers were seized. When the Algerian military eventually

:19:10. > :19:14.recaptured it, many Western hostages were freed, but many others died.

:19:15. > :19:19.There were fears gunfights, 29 militants were killed. This inquest

:19:20. > :19:24.is likely to hear that at least one of the Britons was hit by a Algerian

:19:25. > :19:27.gunfire. Relatives of the seven British residents will be among the

:19:28. > :19:32.first to speak at this inquest. Many have said they still do not know how

:19:33. > :19:37.their loved ones died. They are hoping to get answers. The crisis

:19:38. > :19:40.began on the 16th of January, a Wednesday, when gunmen attacked the

:19:41. > :19:47.sprawling Compaqs, taking hundreds hostage. The initial assault by

:19:48. > :19:51.Algerian forces killed many, but many hostages escaped. On Saturday,

:19:52. > :19:58.the final assault came, with 11 gunmen still in one corner, with

:19:59. > :20:02.seven hostages. The man who masterminded the assault, Mokhtar

:20:03. > :20:07.Belmokhtar, is still believed to be at large. The chaotic events which

:20:08. > :20:13.happened in the Algerian desert in 19 months ago will now be the

:20:14. > :20:16.subject of intense scrutiny. The original coroner stood down after

:20:17. > :20:22.the British government said the inquest was likely to present

:20:23. > :20:27.sensitive material. It is now being held before a High Court judge. The

:20:28. > :20:29.wife of one man told how, in the confusion afterwards, his body was

:20:30. > :20:34.placed in a mortuary with the terrorists. A lot of the relatives

:20:35. > :20:39.spoke about the need to get truth and justice from this inquest, and

:20:40. > :20:42.to hear from all of the parties concerned, including the British and

:20:43. > :20:47.own cheery and garments. The wife of one man said she had been tortured I

:20:48. > :20:50.not knowing. -- the British and Algerian governments.

:20:51. > :20:53.A child cancer specialist has admitted a series of sexual assaults

:20:54. > :20:57.Dr Myles Bradbury, who worked at Addenbrooke's Hospital

:20:58. > :21:00.in Cambridge, pleaded guilty to 25 offences at Cambridge Crown Court.

:21:01. > :21:08.Let's speak to our correspondent Jordan Davies.

:21:09. > :21:19.What was the court told? Dr Myles Bradbury stared straight ahead today

:21:20. > :21:24.as he pleaded guilty to 25 sexual offences on young boys in his care,

:21:25. > :21:29.some as young as 11. These offences included sexual assault, voyeurism

:21:30. > :21:36.and making over 16,000 indecent images. Dr Bradbury has been

:21:37. > :21:41.released on bail, and as he walked past reporters today, he muttered, I

:21:42. > :21:44.am sorry. He was a blood cancer specialist at Addenbrooke's Hospital

:21:45. > :21:48.in Cambridge. He was suspended after a complaint was made about his

:21:49. > :21:54.behaviour. Today, he pleaded guilty to 25 sexual offences. The judge

:21:55. > :21:57.asked for a psychiatric evaluation. He said, the court will wish to

:21:58. > :22:02.understand how this pattern of behaviour has developed. Dr Myles

:22:03. > :22:03.Bradbury will have to sign the sex offenders register. He will be

:22:04. > :22:06.sentenced at a later date. Now we're often being told to make

:22:10. > :22:13.between the age of 18 and 60 still don't have a pension - with millions

:22:14. > :22:16.saying they simply can't afford it. That's according to

:22:17. > :22:18.a survey commissioned for the It also found that one in five

:22:19. > :22:33.adults don't trust pension firms. We are on a trip to the seaside, and

:22:38. > :22:42.suggested around half British workers do not have a pension, and

:22:43. > :22:46.four out of ten say it is because they cannot afford it. People like

:22:47. > :22:51.Adam, a trainee hair colour technician, one ?500 a month. Saving

:22:52. > :22:56.up for a pension, putting money aside each month, just is not

:22:57. > :23:01.feasible. Our study asked people why they had not taken out a pension.

:23:02. > :23:07.11% said they would rather have the money today. Katie is 26 and on the

:23:08. > :23:11.minimum wage, as a carer. I am still doing my studying, so it is not

:23:12. > :23:14.beneficial to me to pay into a pension at the moment. The

:23:15. > :23:17.Government is trying to change that with auto enrolment, but they have

:23:18. > :23:22.got a job on their hands, because one in five of us do not trust

:23:23. > :23:25.pension companies. We have got to get millions of people into a

:23:26. > :23:32.pension at all, and then we have got to build on the basic minimum level.

:23:33. > :23:36.8% of your celery, for most people, will not get you a comfortable

:23:37. > :23:41.retirement. One in five people survey said they were investing in

:23:42. > :23:44.something other than a pension. This mobile delicatessen owner explained

:23:45. > :23:51.that he has opted for a buy to let. I am so employed. I do events and

:23:52. > :24:00.weddings and things. I do not think the return that you will get will be

:24:01. > :24:03.valid, from a pension. In Southampton there is a really high

:24:04. > :24:07.student population, and it is right in the centre of town, it is a

:24:08. > :24:12.wicked location, it is always going to rent, no matter what. As we go

:24:13. > :24:15.down the promenade, time for some words of warning about what the

:24:16. > :24:19.future could hold. Younger people will know that when they get to

:24:20. > :24:24.retirement, the state pension is going to be around ?20 a day. Now,

:24:25. > :24:28.if you think you will be happy living on ?20 a day for the rest of

:24:29. > :24:31.your life, when you have reached retirement, fine, do not do

:24:32. > :24:37.anything. But if you think you might want more, to have a decent

:24:38. > :24:42.lifestyle, then unless you do some saving now, you will not have any

:24:43. > :24:48.money coming in from that pension later. Taking the plunge and putting

:24:49. > :24:52.money into a pension plan might not be everyone's choice, but one thing

:24:53. > :24:56.is for certain - when it comes to keeping our heads above water, when

:24:57. > :25:07.we retire, we will all have to plan ahead.

:25:48. > :25:51.These close-up pictures show that its surface has jagged cliffs

:26:02. > :26:10.Later this morning, the Rosetta team will announce where

:26:11. > :26:20.on this inhospitable surface it plans to set down.

:26:21. > :26:30.The area chosen is relatively flat and fairly free of boulders, but

:26:31. > :26:34.still precarious. There are some cliffs and boulders, and in the end,

:26:35. > :26:35.this turned out to be the best place, but even here, as you can

:26:36. > :26:38.see, the risk is high. Even if the lander, called Philae,

:26:39. > :26:41.does set down safely, there is little gravity on the comet, so what

:26:42. > :26:45.is to stop it from flying off? The idea is that once Philae lands

:26:46. > :26:50.on the surface, it will fire it into the surface

:26:51. > :26:55.and latch onto the comet. This is the latest photograph

:26:56. > :27:18.taken by Rosetta. This comic is a small body, we have

:27:19. > :27:23.only just seen over the last two weeks images of where we are going

:27:24. > :27:26.to land, and we have had to make all of the calculations so quickly. So

:27:27. > :27:27.this is the most difficult thing that space scientists have ever

:27:28. > :27:28.tried to do. This is the latest photograph

:28:05. > :28:16.with Nina Ridge. It was a rather grey, murky start,

:28:17. > :28:21.once again, but things are brightening up nicely. On the

:28:22. > :28:26.satellite picture, you can see the clearer skies. But there is thick

:28:27. > :28:31.cloud further north and east. There is some rain across north-east

:28:32. > :28:37.England and Scotland. There has been a week feature which has been moving

:28:38. > :28:40.through the North Sea, causing this. That will stay for the rest of the

:28:41. > :28:45.day across north-east England and parts of Scotland. The north-west

:28:46. > :28:58.corner is getting some sunshine as well. Temperatures here reaching

:28:59. > :29:01.around 15. A little bit cloudy through the afternoon for Northern

:29:02. > :29:05.Ireland, where there is the risk of the odd shower. Heading south, a

:29:06. > :29:08.better chance of seeing some brighter skies, with some sunshine

:29:09. > :29:14.breaking through. That might just trigger the odd shower. Not too many

:29:15. > :29:21.expected across southern parts of Wales and southern England. Through

:29:22. > :29:25.this evening and overnight tonight, we have still got this area of cloud

:29:26. > :29:31.and rain which is moving through Scotland, heading up into the

:29:32. > :29:34.Northern Isles. Elsewhere, tonight should be mainly dry. It could be

:29:35. > :29:42.turning quite misty and murky. Another grey start to Tuesday

:29:43. > :29:47.morning. So, fairly overcast first thing tomorrow morning. Come the

:29:48. > :29:52.afternoon, we will see the skies brightening up, with some sunshine

:29:53. > :29:57.breaking through. More likely to stay cooler and more cloudy towards

:29:58. > :30:06.the north-east. With that afternoon sunshine comes the small risk of a

:30:07. > :30:12.shower. Around the middle part of the week, it will stay fairly cool

:30:13. > :30:18.to the north-east, but some warmth arriving for southern and western

:30:19. > :30:24.areas, a little bit humid as well. That will bring it the risk of some

:30:25. > :30:32.potentially thundery showers on Wednesday afternoon. Always staying

:30:33. > :30:59.more cool and cloudy towards the north-east of the UK.
