:00:17. > :00:21.New pension proposals for millions of public sector workers. They say

:00:21. > :00:26.workers will work longer, pay more and get less. Ministers insist it

:00:26. > :00:30.is a deal for a generation. This is a strong set of pension reforms

:00:30. > :00:34.which will give you pensions better than anything available in the

:00:34. > :00:44.private sector. There's no doubt there are very, very big barriers

:00:44. > :00:46.

:00:46. > :00:53.in the way to be able to reach an France and Germany give Greece a

:00:53. > :00:58.stark choice - you're either in the eurozone or out.

:00:58. > :01:02.Bill Gates gives me his message to world leaders - don't let the

:01:02. > :01:06.economic crisis affect what we give the poor. I've still got what it

:01:06. > :01:10.takes. David Beckham puts down his marker for a place in Britain's

:01:11. > :01:20.Olympic team. We all dream about it. We all think about it. If it

:01:21. > :01:48.

:01:48. > :01:55.Welcome to the BBC's news at 6pm. The row shows little sign of

:01:55. > :02:00.abating, that is despite a new deal from the Government. Workers will

:02:00. > :02:04.be protected and new pensions will grow more quickly. Staff will have

:02:04. > :02:08.to pay higher country buegs, and many will have to work --

:02:08. > :02:11.contributions and many will have to work longer. Unions are not

:02:11. > :02:14.satisfied and say they plan to continue their ballot on wide-

:02:14. > :02:23.spread industrial action, which could take place by the end of the

:02:23. > :02:28.month. Today brought an important new

:02:28. > :02:31.front in the battle over public sector pensions w the result of a

:02:31. > :02:35.ballot on industrial action Dubai one union tomorrow.

:02:35. > :02:41.The Government has come out with a new offer, what it's calling a very

:02:41. > :02:46.big move. David Cameron spelled out what he

:02:46. > :02:50.believed was on the table. Low and middle income earners will see more

:02:50. > :02:53.from their pensions. Everyone will keep what they have built up so far.

:02:53. > :02:57.Anyone within ten years of retirement will see no change in

:02:57. > :03:01.their pension arrangements. At the end of all this, people in the

:03:01. > :03:11.public sector will still get far better pensions than people in the

:03:11. > :03:28.

:03:29. > :03:35.David Hambly is a social worker, as he's over 50 he would benefit from

:03:35. > :03:41.the Government's new proposal. He's still ready to go on strike. We're

:03:41. > :03:45.not militant. We are with an employer who is making an

:03:45. > :03:49.unreasonable attack on our pensions. At the TUC, union leaders discussed

:03:49. > :03:52.the new proposals and gave a measured reaction. We want to

:03:52. > :03:55.resolve this by negotiation, without the need for further

:03:55. > :04:00.industrial action. That has always been our position. There's no doubt

:04:00. > :04:03.there are very, very big barriers still in the way of us being able

:04:03. > :04:07.to reach an agreement. Union leaders acknowledge the Government

:04:07. > :04:11.has made concessions. They say the detail will now need to be looked

:04:11. > :04:15.at. And how it applies to different bits of the public sector like

:04:15. > :04:19.health and education. At this stage, there's no suggestion that the day

:04:19. > :04:23.of action and planned walkouts for the end of November will be called

:04:23. > :04:30.off. Good afternoon.... Ministers warned the offer could be withdrawn

:04:30. > :04:32.if there was no agreement. We have made a serious move and it's

:04:32. > :04:36.obviously conditional on there being agreement with the unions

:04:36. > :04:41.ultimately. The stress that this does need to

:04:41. > :04:45.be a solution, a settlement that endures for the long term.

:04:45. > :04:48.And with more union ballots due soon, it's not clear how the public

:04:48. > :04:53.will react to the threat of disrupted services and whether they

:04:53. > :04:58.will sympathise with the union fight to protect their pensions.

:04:58. > :05:02.Well, our political editor is in Downing Street. Nick, it is clearly

:05:02. > :05:07.not really happening around the negotiating table. It looks like it

:05:07. > :05:10.will end up a battle for public opinion? It may look that way. In

:05:10. > :05:14.truth the negotiations will go on. Take that warning that Francis

:05:14. > :05:18.Maude, the Cabinet Office minister made a few seconds ago in that

:05:18. > :05:22.report, saying they could withdraw this offer if the unions end

:05:22. > :05:26.negotiations. I am told however that it will not be withdrawn if

:05:27. > :05:30.the unions go ahead with their day of action and strikes on November

:05:30. > :05:33.30th. Ministers accept that unions will find it very difficult to back

:05:33. > :05:38.away from that. It would look like they are giving in. What is more,

:05:38. > :05:42.if they had to re-ballot members for strikes at later dates that

:05:42. > :05:45.could cost many millions of pounds. There'll be an argument in public

:05:45. > :05:48.and a different one in private. What ministers are hoping is they

:05:48. > :05:53.have sent a message tonight. They have sent a message to older

:05:53. > :05:57.workers to say, this doesn't affect you, if you are about to retire in

:05:57. > :06:01.the next ten years things will be as they are now. It sends a message

:06:01. > :06:06.to low and middle-income workers. It says to them, yes, you will have

:06:06. > :06:11.to work longer, as everybody else is. You'll have to pay more for

:06:11. > :06:15.your pension. You may get as much as you are now or even more. Stuen

:06:15. > :06:18.has to -- someone has to pick up the bill for that, it is higher

:06:18. > :06:23.paid workers and taxpayers. The other part of the Government's

:06:23. > :06:27.message is, there are millions of people who dream of having anything

:06:27. > :06:30.like a public sector pension. They hope those people will put pressure

:06:30. > :06:34.on public sector workers to accept that this is as good as it's going

:06:34. > :06:42.to get. Thank you.

:06:42. > :06:45.The German Chancellor, Angela Merkel, says Euro- zone plan is not

:06:45. > :06:49.up for negotiation. Angela Merkel and Nicolas Sarkozy

:06:49. > :06:53.will hold a meeting with Andreous Papandreou tonight, ahead of the

:06:53. > :06:58.G20 summit in Cannes. They are angry with him for calling for a

:06:58. > :07:03.referendum on last week's bail out plan for Greece.

:07:03. > :07:07.For the leaders of France and Germany, the shock of a Greek

:07:07. > :07:12.referendum feels like betrayal. Both President Sarkozy and

:07:12. > :07:15.President Merkel made huge efforts to deliver last week's Euro-deal.

:07:15. > :07:19.Tonight, they have summoned the Greek Prime Minister to Cannes, to

:07:19. > :07:22.urge him to stick with it. This is the man who has plunged the

:07:22. > :07:27.European Union back into crisis - Andreous Papandreou agreed last

:07:27. > :07:32.week in Brussels to what was called "the ultimate rescue." Now it is

:07:32. > :07:36.unravelling because he insists the Greek people must accept or reject

:07:36. > :07:43.it first in a referendum. There's no disguising Chancellor Merkel's

:07:43. > :07:46.anger today. TRANSLATION: We agreed a plan for

:07:46. > :07:50.Greece last week. As far as the European Union is concerned, we

:07:50. > :07:54.want to put this plan into practise. For this, we need clarity. The

:07:54. > :08:00.meeting tonight should help with precisely this.

:08:00. > :08:07.Five days ago, Europe was celebrating a measure to save the

:08:07. > :08:11.euro. All agreed on an �86 billion loan to Athens and a 50% debt

:08:11. > :08:14.write-off. Now the move to hold a referendum in the next 30 days has

:08:14. > :08:19.thrown everything in doubt. You can hear the frustration from France's

:08:19. > :08:23.Prime Minister in Parliament tonight.

:08:23. > :08:27.TRANSLATION: The Greeks must understand that Europe cannot spend

:08:27. > :08:32.long weeks waiting for the response they will give at the referendum.

:08:32. > :08:38.The Greeks must thus say quickly and unambiguously whether or not

:08:38. > :08:41.they are choosing to keep their place in the eurozone.

:08:42. > :08:46.As the world's most powerful leaders arrive here in Cannes and

:08:46. > :08:49.the Presidents of the United States and China will both be here among

:08:49. > :08:54.the economic giants it is increasingly clear that patience

:08:54. > :09:00.with Greece is rapidly running out, not just among eurozone Governments.

:09:00. > :09:03.The whole of the world has a stake in this, the deepening Euro-crisis

:09:03. > :09:07.is intensifying, raging instability which threatens economies right

:09:07. > :09:13.around the globe. And protestors in Cannes are hoping

:09:13. > :09:16.to have their voices heard too. Their complaint - that democracy in

:09:16. > :09:21.Greece is being sacrificed. They mock President Sarkozy and insist

:09:21. > :09:25.the world leaders need to join them, taking the plunge to protect

:09:25. > :09:30.ordinary people, as well as promoting global growth.

:09:30. > :09:35.Now, if the Greeks were to turn down the eurozone bail out deal in

:09:35. > :09:42.a referendum and default on their debts, the shock waves could be

:09:42. > :09:48.felt throughout the world economy. The eurozone's financial crisis,

:09:48. > :09:53.started in Greece 19 months ago and is still in Greece, but has spread

:09:53. > :09:56.to Ireland, Portugal, Spain, Belgium and perhaps most worryingly

:09:56. > :10:02.of all Italy, with its huge Government debts.

:10:02. > :10:09.So why does it matter that the Greece referendum could lead to

:10:09. > :10:14.Greece reneguing on its debts or withdraw from the euro? It is not

:10:14. > :10:17.just to distinguish this, you cannot get one country out and say

:10:17. > :10:20.the rest does not have similar implications. This is one of the

:10:20. > :10:24.crucial problems that other countries have similar, not as

:10:24. > :10:30.massive problems as Greece, and as long as you have this threat,

:10:30. > :10:33.invessors will think about it. point is that last week's painfully

:10:33. > :10:38.negotiated package does not have the money to cope with the losses

:10:38. > :10:42.and stresses which will be generated for countries or exit

:10:42. > :10:49.from the euro and it is Italy that looks most vulnerable. Italy's

:10:49. > :10:52.problem is its Government debt is huge. More than 120% of the value

:10:52. > :10:57.what it produces. Now creditors have become nervous about whether

:10:57. > :11:01.they will be re-paid, so they are charging Italy record amounts to

:11:01. > :11:10.borrow. An interest rate of 5% for a one-year loan, massively more

:11:10. > :11:16.than the 0.3% paid by Germany. Disaster for Italy which has to

:11:16. > :11:24.borrow 300 billion euros. It is vital for Europe's bail out

:11:24. > :11:27.fund to have enough money to fill that gap. Would one trillion be

:11:27. > :11:31.enough? One trillion is probably not enough. We have seen the

:11:31. > :11:35.spreading of the crisis to Italy and Spain and even before that

:11:35. > :11:40.crisis spread to the countries we thought that two trillion was

:11:40. > :11:45.probably mess. So one trillion not enough to stabilise the situation,

:11:45. > :11:54.I am afraid. The Italian Prime Minister and his Cabinet under

:11:54. > :11:58.pressure from Germany and other members to accelerate moves. We, as

:11:59. > :12:04.the Government are doing everything that was agreed with Europe. As for

:12:04. > :12:08.Greece, well the IMF is threatening to turn off its financial life-

:12:08. > :12:12.support machine until after the referendum result is known. Will

:12:12. > :12:16.such pressure persuade Greek people to stay a member of the eurozone

:12:16. > :12:23.circle, or will it break the circle with who knows what painful

:12:23. > :12:26.consequences for it and for us? Well, our Europe editor is in

:12:26. > :12:29.Cannes where the G20 summit is taking place. The Greek Prime

:12:29. > :12:34.Minister arrives there tonight, I think - what sort of message will

:12:34. > :12:38.he get? Well, George, an EU official has

:12:38. > :12:42.just told us that tonight, when Andreous Papandreou arrives here in

:12:42. > :12:48.kapbls, there will be tough talking. -- Cannes, there will be tough

:12:49. > :12:51.talking. He will be told don't expect renegotiation over what

:12:51. > :12:56.happened last week. He will be told if there is to be a referendum,

:12:56. > :13:00.make ed quick. We don't want this in the New Year, we want it in the

:13:00. > :13:05.next couple of weeks. The French and German will frame the nature of

:13:05. > :13:10.the question. They don't want it to be about austerity - do you want

:13:10. > :13:13.further austerity? They want it to be about; do you want to be in the

:13:13. > :13:18.eurozone or out of the eurozone? Whether they will be successful

:13:18. > :13:22.with that pressure is hard to know. Why does all this matter? It

:13:22. > :13:25.matters because of uncertainty. Europe's leaders and also the

:13:25. > :13:29.President of the United States tonight talking about the effect

:13:29. > :13:32.that this uncertainty is having on the global economy, not just the

:13:32. > :13:37.global economy of course, but also it matters to Britain, George.

:13:37. > :13:41.Thank you. The founder of the WikiLeaks

:13:41. > :13:47.website, Julian Assange, has lost his High Court battle against

:13:47. > :13:51.exfrom decision to Sweden. The -- ex-tradition to Sweden. He is

:13:51. > :13:56.wanted to be questioned about sexual assault allegations. Mr

:13:56. > :14:00.Assange denies the claims and says the case against him is

:14:00. > :14:03.politically-motivated. His lawyers have 14 days to decide whether to

:14:03. > :14:08.appeal to the Supreme Court or not. Five metd met police officers have

:14:08. > :14:12.been disciplined after smashing a suspects Carwyn dough with baseball

:14:12. > :14:16.bats. The Independent Police Complaints commission found they

:14:16. > :14:20.used unreasonable force during the incident in North London three

:14:20. > :14:24.years ago. A sixth officer was demoted for failing to supervise

:14:24. > :14:29.them properly. David Beckham says he can still perform at the highest

:14:29. > :14:35.level and he will know when it is time to quit football. Speaking to

:14:35. > :14:45.the BBC, the Los Angeles Galaxy midfielder said his next goal would

:14:45. > :14:46.

:14:46. > :14:50.be to represent the 2012 Olympic For decades, people have been

:14:50. > :14:56.making the pilgrimage to this city, seeking fame and fortune. When he

:14:56. > :15:01.came to Los Angeles five years ago, David Beckham already had both.

:15:01. > :15:06.This season it has been his form on the pitch which has got Tinseltown

:15:06. > :15:10.talking, guiding his club, LA Galaxy, to within three games of

:15:10. > :15:15.the American title. But with his contract up at the end of the month,

:15:15. > :15:20.his time here could be coming to an end. So, has he helped football to

:15:20. > :15:28.break America? When I first came here, I always said, it is not

:15:28. > :15:32.going to be a huge success in a couple of years, it has to go on

:15:32. > :15:36.longer than that. There was the buzz at the start, there has been

:15:36. > :15:40.new stadiums getting built, new players coming to the country, but

:15:40. > :15:43.there is still a long way to go. David Beckham's time in America may

:15:43. > :15:48.not have completed delivered on all the ambitious targets he set

:15:48. > :15:53.himself. But he remains one of world football's most valuable

:15:53. > :16:00.brands. The question is, at the age of 36, how long he can continue

:16:00. > :16:03.playing. There is still interested in signing him back in Europe, most

:16:04. > :16:07.notably from Paris St Germain. That's why he insists he's not

:16:07. > :16:11.ready to quit just yet. It is always difficult when you come

:16:11. > :16:14.towards the end of your career, it is always difficult making that

:16:14. > :16:23.decision about stopping. But I don't think I will have that

:16:23. > :16:28.problem. I think I will know when I need to finish. But that's not yet.

:16:29. > :16:34.As part of the London 2012 bid team, Beckham helped bring the Olympics

:16:34. > :16:39.to his home city. Now, he's focused on playing a key role in the

:16:39. > :16:44.British football team's push for gold. When it comes to leading my

:16:44. > :16:48.country, or playing for my country, it is still a big thing. We all

:16:48. > :16:53.dream about it, we all think about it. If it happens, then I would be

:16:53. > :16:58.honoured. Some people will think, that's a bit of an indulgence, we

:16:58. > :17:02.should be picking other players, we want the best, youngest team.

:17:02. > :17:08.people will say that, but people have been saying there that about

:17:08. > :17:12.me for the last 10-15 years. I have continued to represent my country.

:17:12. > :17:16.David Beckham could have used his time in Los Angeles to gently wind

:17:16. > :17:22.down after a long career in the spotlight. Instead, this American

:17:22. > :17:27.adventure has left his footballing ambitions still burning. And you

:17:27. > :17:37.can see the full interview with David Beckham on Football Focus on

:17:37. > :17:40.Saturday here on BBC One. Our main headline - the unions to reject a

:17:40. > :17:46.new government offer on pension reforms for millions of public

:17:46. > :17:56.sector workers. Coming up, cake lends a helping hand on a visit to

:17:56. > :18:09.

:18:09. > :18:12.a UNICEF emergency supply centre. - The Archbishop of Canterbury has

:18:12. > :18:15.defended the way the Church of England is dealing with the

:18:16. > :18:19.protests outside St Paul's cathedral. Almost three weeks after

:18:19. > :18:24.the demonstrators set up camp, Dr Rowan Williams says in an interview

:18:24. > :18:28.with the BBC that it has been a real focus for people's feelings

:18:28. > :18:33.about the banking industry, and he has backed the introduction of a

:18:33. > :18:38.new introduction -- international tax on financial transactions.

:18:38. > :18:43.Robert Piggott reports. Anglicans have watched a protest about banks

:18:43. > :18:47.become a debate about whether their own church is standing up to

:18:47. > :18:53.Christian values. Today, its leader emerged to try to wrest back

:18:53. > :18:58.control of the debate. Dr Williams said people were frustrated by

:18:58. > :19:03.Bancos' irresponsible behaviour, and their soaring bonuses. It is

:19:03. > :19:07.not changing fast enough, people still feel that the public is

:19:07. > :19:11.bearing more of the cost than they ought to. So this has been a real

:19:11. > :19:18.focus for people's feelings, even if they have not known exactly what

:19:18. > :19:22.they're after. What would you say to criticism that you have been

:19:22. > :19:25.slow in exercising your own leadership on this one. It is

:19:25. > :19:30.always difficult judging these things, and I may not have got it

:19:30. > :19:35.right, but anyway, this is what I have got to say now. For Dr

:19:35. > :19:38.Williams, this all represents an opportunity as well as a danger. He

:19:38. > :19:41.wants the Church to seize back the initiative and put Christian

:19:41. > :19:49.concern for the Palace at the centre of the debate. So today he

:19:49. > :19:53.has challenged the government to use the G20 to back controversial

:19:53. > :19:58.proposals for a tax on financial transactions. The so-called Robin

:19:58. > :20:03.Hood tax would place a tiny levy on the millions of share, bond and

:20:03. > :20:07.currency transactions which take place each day. Dr Williams said

:20:07. > :20:12.the tax could be one way of answering the campaign ofs' moral

:20:12. > :20:17.agenda. When you have a scheme like this, backed by a lot of serious

:20:17. > :20:22.economists, people who cannot just be written off as knee-jerk anti-

:20:22. > :20:27.capitalists. It means there must be something to be said for it.

:20:27. > :20:30.Protesters welcomed Dr Williams' intervention. Enormous institutions

:20:30. > :20:33.and powerful individuals are starting to raise questions in the

:20:33. > :20:37.media. Everyone here has got a renewed sense of zeal and

:20:37. > :20:41.commitment. It is a nice answer to the critics who say it has all been

:20:41. > :20:46.pointless. The Prime Minister said today that Dr Williams spoke for

:20:46. > :20:50.everyone in doubting whether high earners were behaving

:20:50. > :20:54.responsibility, but that Britain would back the tax only if it were

:20:54. > :20:58.adopted worldwide. The Archbishop is not the only prominent figure

:20:58. > :21:03.backing a new tax on financial deals. Today, bill Gates, the

:21:03. > :21:07.former head of Microsoft, and one of the world's richest men, says he,

:21:07. > :21:12.too, favours the tax, but he would like to spend some of the billions

:21:12. > :21:18.raised on helping the world's poor. He told me today this was a message

:21:18. > :21:22.he would be taking to the Cannes summit. Bill Gates is arguably the

:21:22. > :21:26.businessman of his age, the big beast of the information era. It

:21:26. > :21:30.made him one of the world's wealthiest men. But now, he has

:21:37. > :21:42.helping them was in our interest. Not caring about the instability of

:21:42. > :21:48.these countries really would hurt our economic future quite

:21:54. > :22:01.you bring these people into the world economy, then you get is very

:22:01. > :22:08.positive cycle. So, all of these things need money, and you have now

:22:08. > :22:11.come to support a tax on financial transactions, and interestingly,

:22:11. > :22:19.the Archbishop of Canterbury has come out today in support of that.

:22:19. > :22:22.But he's that really something that is going to fly, given the

:22:22. > :22:28.opposition? I don't know. It is clearly a political question. When

:22:28. > :22:32.we talk about the financial transaction tax, there's many

:22:33. > :22:37.flavours of this. What I was looking at is, are other ways for

:22:37. > :22:41.countries which are falling a bit short of their aid commitments, are

:22:41. > :22:47.there ways that they could raise money to get to those commitment

:22:51. > :22:55.development aid, it will have a fantastic effect. Bill Gates

:22:55. > :22:59.accepts that these are tough and volatile times for the global

:22:59. > :23:09.economy, but he insists that the poor should not be sacrificed to

:23:09. > :23:10.

:23:10. > :23:14.save the rich. I think steps have to be taken to restore confidence

:23:14. > :23:22.in the fact that governments will pay their debts. I do think we can

:23:23. > :23:26.come out of this without taking that 1% which goes to the poorest

:23:26. > :23:31.and using that as a way to solve the problem. This time tomorrow,

:23:31. > :23:35.bill Gates will be at the summit in Cannes, and he is determined to

:23:35. > :23:39.make sure that the voices of the poor are not forgotten when the

:23:39. > :23:42.world's most powerful politicians sit round a table. An investigation

:23:42. > :23:46.into two earth tremors on the Lancashire coast has found it is

:23:46. > :23:51.highly probable that there were caused by the controversial gas

:23:51. > :23:54.extraction method called fracking. Our correspondent is that the

:23:54. > :24:01.drilling site in Lancashire. This is going to add to the fears and

:24:01. > :24:06.arguments about this particular way of extracting gas... It is, because

:24:06. > :24:11.fracking involves drilling 9,000ft below the surface, shattering the

:24:11. > :24:16.rocks and releasing gas. There were exploratory tests on this site back

:24:16. > :24:20.in the spring which was stopped after a few weeks because a couple

:24:20. > :24:24.of earth tremors were felt measuring up to 2. Re-on the scale

:24:24. > :24:27.of magnitude. Today, a report has been released which says it is

:24:27. > :24:33.highly probable that those earth tremors were caused by the fracking.

:24:33. > :24:38.But the report also says that should fracking be resumed here,

:24:38. > :24:41.that further tremors are unlikely to happen. So, Cuadrilla, the

:24:41. > :24:45.company operating this drill, wants to start up again, and is waiting

:24:45. > :24:49.for the green light from government. Today alone on this site there have

:24:49. > :24:54.been protesters who came in in the morning and were here all day, and

:24:54. > :24:58.have just been removed. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are in

:24:58. > :25:02.Denmark, where they visited an emergency supply centre run by the

:25:02. > :25:07.children's charity UNICEF. They met workers sending aid to help and

:25:34. > :25:38.8 by royals is for the children still suffering from East Africa's

:25:38. > :25:42.worst drought in 60 years. They are malnourished and need urgent

:25:42. > :25:46.medical hype. The couple are well aware of the interest in their

:25:46. > :25:50.lives. Here, they are trying to exploit that global fascination and

:25:50. > :25:54.focus it on the needs of others. Aid agencies are appealing for more

:25:54. > :25:59.money at a time of financial difficulties for many. Prince

:25:59. > :26:03.William knows it will be a challenge. As tragic and disastrous

:26:03. > :26:08.as everything is, financially, what's going on in Africa puts

:26:08. > :26:13.everything into perspective. Kate says she wants to put the spotlight

:26:13. > :26:18.back on this crisis. It is really just how shocking this situation

:26:18. > :26:24.still is. It has been going on for 100 days or so. It is really still

:26:24. > :26:29.ongoing. A huge amount still has to happen, with hundreds of children

:26:29. > :26:33.still malnourished at the moment. In a warehouse the size of three

:26:33. > :26:37.football pitches, the British and Danish royals learned about the

:26:37. > :26:43.work done here. They have come for a day. The problems they have been

:26:43. > :26:50.highlighting will last for many, many days. It is time for the

:26:50. > :26:55.many days. It is time for the weather now. Yes, a lot more cloud

:26:55. > :26:59.around tonight, and all of you are set to see some wet weather and at

:26:59. > :27:03.times. The wind is coming from a south-easterly direction, which

:27:03. > :27:09.will be crucial to temperatures overnight. The wet weather is

:27:09. > :27:15.coming northwards and eastwards from the south. Some of it will be

:27:15. > :27:23.heavy at times. But the wind coming from the south-east will keep

:27:23. > :27:29.temperatures up. Tomorrow morning, the heaviest of the rain will have

:27:29. > :27:34.pushed into Scotland, central and eastern areas in particular. A few

:27:34. > :27:39.showers in Northern Ireland, but the early morning heavy rain across

:27:39. > :27:49.northern England will be easing off. It will be leaving a good deal of

:27:49. > :27:53.

:27:53. > :28:03.standing water in its wake. We will see some more showers developing

:28:03. > :28:05.

:28:05. > :28:09.during the day. But there will also be some drier and brighter weather.

:28:09. > :28:14.Tomorrow night is not vastly dissimilar to tonight. There will

:28:14. > :28:18.be more heavy rain working its way northwards and eastwards. The winds

:28:18. > :28:23.will be lighter on Friday. But there will be some heavy showers,

:28:27. > :28:35.After a rather chilly night, Saturday brings this low pressure
