The Conservatives are pressed to third place as the Lib Dems win the | :00:10. | :00:17. | |
Eastleigh by-election. UKIP come second. David Cameron calls it a | :00:17. | :00:22. | |
protest vote. Nick Clegg says the Lib Dems overcame the odds. | :00:22. | :00:27. | |
This has been by election we have had to fight in difficult | :00:27. | :00:31. | |
circumstances. Our opponents have thrown everything at us. It is a | :00:31. | :00:35. | |
disappointing result for the Conservative Party, but it is clear | :00:35. | :00:40. | |
that in by-election, people want to register a protest. | :00:40. | :00:46. | |
Also on tonight's programme: We have got six kids in the house. | :00:46. | :00:50. | |
The call made by the parents accused of killing six of their | :00:50. | :00:55. | |
children in a house fire. Threatened with closure, the | :00:55. | :00:59. | |
athletics track where Jessica Ennis was trained for Olympic glory. | :00:59. | :01:03. | |
And a lesson for parents everywhere - think twice before giving your | :01:03. | :01:11. | |
children free rein on your iPad. And later in the hour, I will be | :01:11. | :01:14. | |
here with the sport, including another Manchester milestone for | :01:15. | :01:24. | |

Good evening. Welcome to the News At Six. David Cameron has insisted | :01:40. | :01:44. | |
that the Conservatives can win the next general election despite | :01:44. | :01:48. | |
coming third behind the Lib Dems and the UK Independence Party in | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
the Eastleigh by-election. The Prime Minister dismissed the result | :01:51. | :01:55. | |
as a mid-term protest, but the vice-chairman of the Conservatives | :01:55. | :01:59. | |
as this evening declared that UKIP connects with the electorate. Nick | :01:59. | :02:04. | |
Clegg described the win as a stunning victory. Labour came | :02:04. | :02:09. | |
fourth. Nick Robinson's report contains some flash photography. | :02:09. | :02:17. | |
Ever wondered what relief looks like? It looks like this. Relief | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
that after a campaign marred by a Lib Dem scandal, in by election | :02:21. | :02:28. | |
triggered by a Lib Dem scandal, their man had still one. I declare | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
that Michael Douglas Thornton is duly elected. | :02:32. | :02:36. | |
There was another political winner last night. The UK Independence | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
Party may have come second, but those smiles tear you they think | :02:39. | :02:49. | |
:02:49. | :02:49. | ||
they have made the big time. So, what have the losers achieve? | :02:49. | :02:54. | |
This is a party coming to terms with coming third. It is a sees the | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
Conservatives had hoped they could win. The Tory candidate, tearful on | :02:59. | :03:03. | |
stage, left it and the election count unable or unwilling to say a | :03:03. | :03:11. | |
word. On the morning after the night | :03:11. | :03:16. | |
before, Nick Clegg was a picture of fist clenched defiance. His party's | :03:16. | :03:21. | |
vote may have dropped by more than 14%, but he believes that he has | :03:21. | :03:24. | |
shown that the Lib Dems can still win. | :03:24. | :03:29. | |
This has been by election we have had to fight in exceptionally | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
difficult circumstances. Our opponents have thrown everything at | :03:32. | :03:38. | |
us. We held our nerve. We stood our ground. We worked as a team. We | :03:38. | :03:43. | |
went out and campaigned on every doorstep. We overcame the odds. We | :03:43. | :03:53. | |
:03:53. | :03:53. | ||
won a stunning victory. UKIP leader Nigel Farage considered | :03:53. | :04:00. | |
becoming the candidate for this election after Diane James. But | :04:00. | :04:05. | |
after she did so well, he must be wondering, what if? The remarkable | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
thing is it is happening in a short campaign. We really have connected | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
with voters in this constituency. That is because we're talking about | :04:13. | :04:17. | |
issues that the other parties would prefer to brush under the carpet. | :04:17. | :04:21. | |
The Tories are trying to console themselves with words of comfort | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
from a leader who insists this is simply a classic mid-term protest | :04:25. | :04:30. | |
vote. It is a disappointing result for the Conservative Party. But it | :04:30. | :04:34. | |
is clear that in mid-term by- elections, people want to register | :04:34. | :04:39. | |
a protest. I'm confident that at the general election we can win | :04:39. | :04:41. | |
those people back by demonstrating that we are delivering for | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
everybody who was to work hard and wants to get on. That is what we | :04:44. | :04:49. | |
will be focused on. The Tory vote dropped by less than the Lib Dems. | :04:49. | :04:54. | |
But a growing number of the party's MPs are prepared to use the result | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
to declare that if they don't change, they are doomed to more | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
defeats. People who have have traditionally voted Conservative | :05:01. | :05:06. | |
are not supporting the party at the moment. They feel that the | :05:06. | :05:10. | |
leadership is not in tune with their hopes and fears and their | :05:10. | :05:15. | |
everyday lives. We need to be aware that gay marriage did not play well | :05:15. | :05:20. | |
in terms of the activists and supporters. Some of them went on | :05:20. | :05:23. | |
strike and went directly to UKIP. The Prime Minister needs to think | :05:23. | :05:29. | |
about that. Despite the cheers, what Ed Miliband calls one-nation | :05:29. | :05:35. | |
Labour fail to extend its appeal to this part of the nation, getting | :05:35. | :05:39. | |
around a third of UKIP's vote. would have preferred to get more | :05:39. | :05:42. | |
votes than we did. This was always going to be a tough fight for | :05:43. | :05:47. | |
Labour. It is a seat we have never won. All it convinces me of is that | :05:47. | :05:51. | |
we need to redouble our efforts to reach out to every part of the | :05:51. | :05:57. | |
country. By elections are, of course, a bit different from those | :05:57. | :06:03. | |
in which we choose government. But Eastleigh will be remembered for | :06:03. | :06:08. | |
the poll where a quarter of voters chose to bat none of the three main | :06:08. | :06:11. | |
parties. Nick joins us now. Tell us more | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
about these comments by the vice- chairman of the Conservatives. | :06:15. | :06:18. | |
They are striking because it is a day in which most Conservative MPs, | :06:18. | :06:23. | |
even those who are known privately to be most critical of the Prime | :06:23. | :06:27. | |
Minister, are very concerned about the alleged false situation and | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
have actually stayed silent. Yet the vice chairman, who, I think, | :06:32. | :06:36. | |
would admit he is not a household name in his own house, he never the | :06:36. | :06:41. | |
less is an office holder and he has spoken for many Tory MPs. He says | :06:41. | :06:45. | |
the Conservative voice is muffled and not crisp in a series of tweets | :06:45. | :06:49. | |
tonight. It does not project conservative core policies or | :06:49. | :06:54. | |
principles. He goes on to say that UKIP connects with the electorate | :06:54. | :07:00. | |
not just on Europe but on crime and immigration. With UKIP and not a | :07:00. | :07:04. | |
policy is the public want to hear, we must do the same. That is hardly | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
the same as the Prime Minister saying this was just a protest vote. | :07:08. | :07:12. | |
Of course, by elections are not the same as general elections. A poll | :07:12. | :07:17. | |
taken of those who voted to date suggests that as many as eight in | :07:17. | :07:22. | |
10 UKIP voters did so to send a message to the parties, the bigger | :07:22. | :07:26. | |
parties, they normally support. More than half of them said they | :07:26. | :07:31. | |
were deeply concerned, and above all concerned about immigration. So, | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
today's result may not changed national politics. In one sense, it | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
will change one thing, though - every other party leader will be | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
asking tonight what do we do about UKIP and what do we do about | :07:43. | :07:50. | |
immigration? A court has heard a distressing 999 | :07:50. | :07:54. | |
call made by Nick and Mairead Philpott, who are accused of | :07:54. | :07:59. | |
killing six of their children at their home in Derby. Details of a | :07:59. | :08:02. | |
secret recording were released in which prosecutors say that Mick | :08:02. | :08:08. | |
Philpott said he did not need to do it. This report from Jeremy Cook. | :08:08. | :08:12. | |
It was a fire that killed six children while they were sleeping | :08:12. | :08:17. | |
in their own beds. Today, a jury was told that their parents, now | :08:17. | :08:20. | |
accused of delivery starting the blaze, were the ones who raised the | :08:21. | :08:30. | |
:08:31. | :08:58. | ||
alarm. The court was played a tape The jury was also shown footage of | :08:58. | :09:03. | |
the Philpotts at their first conference shortly after the fire. | :09:03. | :09:07. | |
-- at a press conference. Two weeks after this, the couple were | :09:07. | :09:12. | |
arrested. On 31st May they were driven to their first appearance, | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
unaware that their conversation was being recorded by a police | :09:15. | :09:20. | |
surveillance team. In court today, the jury was told that during this | :09:20. | :09:30. | |
:09:30. | :09:33. | ||
journey, Mick Philpott had told his Mairead says know. The prosecution | :09:33. | :09:43. | |
:09:43. | :09:45. | ||
also alleges that Mick Philpott Those words, I did not mean to do | :09:45. | :09:51. | |
it, are disputed by the defence. A forensic speech expert says he has | :09:51. | :09:54. | |
listened to the tape of many thousands of times and he insists | :09:54. | :09:58. | |
the words on that part of the recording are obscured by | :09:58. | :10:03. | |
background noise. Both Mick Philpott and Mairead and their co- | :10:03. | :10:07. | |
accused, poor Moseley, denies six charges of manslaughter. -- Paul | :10:07. | :10:14. | |
Mosley. Prescription charges in England are | :10:14. | :10:21. | |
to go up by 20p. From April, the cost will be �7.85. Dental charges | :10:21. | :10:27. | |
will also increase. Stuart Hall has appeared in court. | :10:27. | :10:32. | |

during the 19 70s, and a -- end 1980s. The case has been adjourned | :10:38. | :10:43. | |
until April. Beef products sold by Birds Eye, | :10:43. | :10:48. | |
Taco Bell and the catering supply company Brakes had been found to | :10:48. | :10:54. | |
contain traces of horse DNA. Emma Simpson is at the Food Standards | :10:54. | :10:58. | |
Agency in London. How serious are these latest findings? | :10:59. | :11:05. | |
I think the main thing to point out tonight is, out of the 1,800 tests | :11:05. | :11:11. | |
on beef products competed in the last seven days, 99% were negative | :11:11. | :11:16. | |
for horsemeat contamination above the level of 1%. But, here at the | :11:16. | :11:22. | |
FISA, they say that is still totally unacceptable. -- the Food | :11:22. | :11:26. | |
Standards Agency. Today we learn that two ready meals by birds Eye, | :11:26. | :11:32. | |
a spaghetti bolognese and a lasagne, that had already been withdraw from | :11:32. | :11:36. | |
shells, turns out to have been tested after all. Another big name | :11:36. | :11:41. | |
has been caught up in all of this. Taco Bell, the Mexican fast-food | :11:41. | :11:46. | |
chain, famous for its Mexican food. They only have three restaurants in | :11:46. | :11:50. | |
the UK. But tests revealed that some of its ground beef contained | :11:51. | :11:57. | |
horsemeat. One other quick case. Brakes, who supply to the catering | :11:57. | :12:03. | |
industry, was it was found in a -- horsemeat was found in a product | :12:03. | :12:08. | |
there. Eight South African policemen have | :12:08. | :12:11. | |
been arrested on suspicion of murder after the death of a | :12:11. | :12:15. | |
Mozambican taxi driver who was dragged down a street tied to the | :12:15. | :12:20. | |
back of a police van. The incident was recorded by a boy -- a | :12:20. | :12:24. | |
bystander. A man later died in police custody. President Jacob | :12:24. | :12:28. | |
Zuma has condemned the incident as horrific. You may find some of the | :12:28. | :12:38. | |
:12:38. | :12:47. | ||
He was 27 and a taxi-driver. Arrested by South African police, | :12:47. | :12:52. | |
reportedly because his car was blocking traffic. What happened | :12:52. | :12:59. | |
next provoked outrage. He resisted, and was eventually handcuffed to | :12:59. | :13:04. | |
the back of a police van. And then, as to why is still under | :13:04. | :13:08. | |
investigation, the van drove off, dragging him along the ground. He | :13:09. | :13:15. | |
died soon after of head injuries and internal bleeding. Residents | :13:15. | :13:22. | |
gathered near his home in a troubled area near Johannesburg. | :13:22. | :13:29. | |
need law now, we need justice. If there is no justice, let them feel | :13:29. | :13:36. | |
that. And side, a small protest. He came from Mozambique, prompting | :13:36. | :13:42. | |
some to accuse the police of deliberately targeting foreigners. | :13:42. | :13:48. | |
Why do the police men kill us? 100% wrong. I think the Government must | :13:48. | :13:54. | |
do something about the police. South Africa's international | :13:54. | :13:59. | |
reputation has taken a hammering in recent months and this incident | :13:59. | :14:04. | |
won't help. President, Jacob Zuma, has waded in describing the police | :14:04. | :14:08. | |
brutality as horrific and unacceptable. The authorities are | :14:08. | :14:13. | |
struggling to break the culture of violence here. Today it was | :14:13. | :14:16. | |
announced eight police officers initially suspended have now been | :14:16. | :14:22. | |
arrested in connection with the incident. A senior Government | :14:22. | :14:29. | |
official de -- visited the man's relatives offering condolences and | :14:29. | :14:33. | |
some context. This is something that could have been avoided. It | :14:34. | :14:43. | |
:14:44. | :14:44. | ||
shouldn't have happened and it cannot be justified. There is grief | :14:44. | :14:54. | |
today and outrage, but in a violent country, no great sense of surprise. | :14:54. | :14:57. | |
Our top story tonight: The Conservatives are pushed to third | :14:57. | :15:01. | |
place behind UKIP as the Liberal Democrats hold Eastleigh. Coming | :15:01. | :15:11. | |
:15:11. | :15:13. | ||
up: The flag stayed down, 2-0! In a world where sporting stars are | :15:14. | :15:23. | |
:15:24. | :15:36. | ||
getting younger and younger, Ryan Giggs proves age is no barrier. | :15:36. | :15:38. | |
The athletics track where Jessica Ennis was trained for Olympic glory | :15:38. | :15:42. | |
may be about to close. The Don Valley stadium in Sheffield was | :15:42. | :15:46. | |
only opened in 1991 but the city council says it costs too much to | :15:46. | :15:50. | |
run and maintain. The Olympic gold medallist, who picked up a CBE | :15:50. | :16:00. | |
:16:00. | :16:02. | ||
yesterday, said closing the stadium would send out the wrong message. | :16:02. | :16:09. | |
Danny Savage is at the stadium now. Jessica Ennis has probably ran | :16:10. | :16:14. | |
thousands of laps around this stadium. But closure looks likely | :16:14. | :16:19. | |
and it is added to a list of public facilities threatened with closure | :16:19. | :16:26. | |
because of budget cuts. It was one of the highlights of | :16:26. | :16:31. | |
last summer's Olympics. Jessica Ennis winning gold in the | :16:31. | :16:36. | |
heptathlon. Commentators were quick to mention the party at the track | :16:36. | :16:40. | |
where she trained. And the Don Valley Stadium, who are watching | :16:40. | :16:46. | |
this on a big screen must be going mad by now. He was right. They were | :16:46. | :16:53. | |
celebrating. But several months on, and has 25,000 seated arena is now | :16:53. | :16:58. | |
facing closure and demolition. Sheffield City Council says it | :16:58. | :17:03. | |
cannot afford to run it any more. Now the Athlete honoured by her | :17:03. | :17:08. | |
City and her country has spoken out. Amazing memories from the stadium, | :17:08. | :17:13. | |
that is where my career started. To see the city losing the stadium | :17:13. | :17:17. | |
would be a huge shame. There are lots of kids so enjoyed athletics | :17:17. | :17:23. | |
in the city and not to have that iconic City -- Stadium would be sad. | :17:23. | :17:27. | |
Be it is a sentiment shared by her coach who was training in the city | :17:27. | :17:31. | |
today. We lose a large, iconic stadium which has inspired | :17:31. | :17:35. | |
generations of kids. There is a great feeling from the stadium, but | :17:36. | :17:42. | |
it has hosted things as well as Grand Prix is like the English | :17:42. | :17:46. | |
Schools Championships. That will never happen again in the city. | :17:46. | :17:50. | |
Built in 1991, this facility has left Sheffield with a legacy of | :17:50. | :17:55. | |
debt. But what about the Olympic legacy? The idea more and more of | :17:55. | :18:00. | |
us should be making use of such facilities. The reality is, | :18:00. | :18:06. | |
subsidising each visitor by more than �5 is unsustainable. | :18:06. | :18:10. | |
Sheffield we are voting on �50 million to the Budget. The | :18:10. | :18:13. | |
Government has talked about legacy, but what they have actually done | :18:13. | :18:17. | |
his cup the local authorities to provide the facilities, and there | :18:17. | :18:21. | |
is no legacy funding, nothing in the budget to pay for legacy | :18:21. | :18:27. | |
funding. Jessica Ennis was training here just a few days ago. Now she | :18:27. | :18:30. | |
and the other users of the Don Valley Stadium, will have to look | :18:30. | :18:34. | |
elsewhere. This isn't just about Jessica Ennis | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
is losing the track where she trains, other people trained here | :18:37. | :18:44. | |
as well. She happens to be the most high-profile person. There is a | :18:44. | :18:48. | |
rugby league pitch as well. The meetings to decide the fate of this | :18:48. | :18:52. | |
place is ongoing and a decision is expected in the next hour. We have | :18:52. | :18:56. | |
will have the latest on the BBC News Channel. Lloyds Banking Group | :18:56. | :18:58. | |
has posted better-than-expected figures for 2012. The group, which | :18:59. | :19:01. | |
is 39% owned by the British Government, did lose �570 million, | :19:01. | :19:06. | |
but that's still a much better return than last year. Shares have | :19:06. | :19:09. | |
more than doubled over the last year and there's now speculation | :19:09. | :19:12. | |
about when the Government could sell its shares and claw back | :19:12. | :19:14. | |
billions of taxpayers' money. Here's our chief economics | :19:14. | :19:24. | |
:19:24. | :19:25. | ||
correspondent, Hugh Pym. And it is a story about a leading | :19:25. | :19:29. | |
British bank, Lloyds, when the boss should get a bonus, and weak the | :19:29. | :19:34. | |
taxpayers get back the �20 billion pumped into the bank to bail it out. | :19:34. | :19:38. | |
We asked customers how confident they felt about their bank repaying | :19:39. | :19:43. | |
the taxpayer? The idea our money would come back to us after bailing | :19:43. | :19:48. | |
out the banks, to actually see something tangible is beyond the | :19:48. | :19:52. | |
realms of all possibilities. Whether we get our money back, I do | :19:52. | :19:57. | |
hope so. I don't see why the taxpayer should lose out. I would | :19:57. | :20:02. | |
like to see the money back because I am a taxpayer, it is our money. | :20:02. | :20:07. | |
Lloyd's overall losses last year were reduced and there is a renewed | :20:07. | :20:10. | |
speculation about a sale of the Government's 40% holding in the | :20:10. | :20:15. | |
bank. We need to get the bank back in health, and the only way we can | :20:15. | :20:20. | |
do that is when it is back in private hands. But the taxpayer | :20:20. | :20:24. | |
cannot lose millions of pounds, which is what will happen if we | :20:24. | :20:31. | |
rush into a facile. What about the boss, Antonio Horta-Osorio? He said | :20:31. | :20:39. | |
he was not in a position to get the bank sold off. He has been awarded | :20:39. | :20:44. | |
a 1.5 million bonus, but deferred until 2018. It will have to get | :20:44. | :20:48. | |
back to 74p, roughly what was paid for the taxpayer steak, or the | :20:48. | :20:51. | |
Government sells a third of its shares if the boss is to get the | :20:52. | :20:56. | |
bonus. What is the earliest the Government can hope to start | :20:56. | :21:00. | |
selling off its shares in Lloyds? Investors will have to be satisfied | :21:00. | :21:06. | |
finances are in good order, and there is a need taxpayers' get a | :21:06. | :21:10. | |
good return. Some analysts think there is a lot more work to be done | :21:10. | :21:14. | |
at Lloyd's. For the Government to be able to sell its shares at | :21:14. | :21:20. | |
anything it regards as fair value, you need to have Lloyd's close to a | :21:20. | :21:23. | |
position when it can generate normal returns. That does not | :21:23. | :21:29. | |
happen before 2016, even with a following wind. Like other banks, | :21:29. | :21:33. | |
Lloyds is having to make payouts it to customers who were mis-sold | :21:33. | :21:38. | |
protection insurance. Before any major share sale can be considered, | :21:38. | :21:46. | |
there are major hurdles to clear. The pound has fallen to its lowest | :21:46. | :21:49. | |
level against the dollar for more than two and a half years. The fall | :21:49. | :21:51. | |
comes after a surprise contraction in British manufacturing and | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
further speculation about what measures the Bank of England may | :21:54. | :21:57. | |
take to boost the economy. Economists say the figures are a | :21:57. | :22:00. | |
setback to hopes that the economy can return to growth in the first | :22:00. | :22:03. | |
quarter of this year. He's fit, almost 40 and could be | :22:03. | :22:06. | |
about to play his 1000th professional game. Ryan Giggs has | :22:06. | :22:08. | |
had his Manchester United contract extended by a year, proving that | :22:08. | :22:13. | |
age is no barrier in top flight sport. His manager Sir Alex | :22:13. | :22:15. | |
Ferguson described Giggs as a marvellous player and an | :22:15. | :22:25. | |
:22:25. | :22:29. | ||
exceptional human being. Dan Roan He is football's man for All | :22:29. | :22:34. | |
seasons. For more than two decades, Ryan Giggs has been scoring goals | :22:34. | :22:39. | |
and breaking records. After extending his long stint at | :22:39. | :22:42. | |
Manchester United for another year, he has ensured he will still be | :22:42. | :22:51. | |
playing when he turns 40. In the modern game, it is unique of course, | :22:51. | :22:56. | |
but I think it is more than that. I don't think it can be achieved | :22:56. | :23:02. | |
again. An incredible career, absolutely fantastic. These are | :23:02. | :23:07. | |
special times in a special career. If Ryan Giggs plays tomorrow | :23:07. | :23:15. | |
afternoon against Norwich City, it will be Appearance a number 1000. | :23:15. | :23:21. | |
The marathon man has played in each of the last 22 seasons and scored | :23:21. | :23:28. | |
168 goals for United along the way. He has won 12 Premier League titles, | :23:28. | :23:35. | |
four FA Cups and two Champions League triumphs. This was the | :23:35. | :23:39. | |
moments in 1991, when Ryan Giggs made his senior debut for a club he | :23:39. | :23:44. | |
has never left. He has been compared to the young George Best. | :23:44. | :23:48. | |
One of his team-mates that day, says his talent was clear from the | :23:48. | :23:55. | |
beginning. Nobody wanted to mark him because he was so fast. That is | :23:55. | :24:01. | |
what stood him in great stead for so many years. Most players lose | :24:01. | :24:05. | |
their pace, but he has not lost his pace and agility. It is | :24:05. | :24:09. | |
unbelievable what he has achieved. Ryan Giggs has never been sent off | :24:09. | :24:13. | |
for his club, but has known controversy. Laura headlines about | :24:13. | :24:20. | |
his private life two years ago. But his playing career remains | :24:20. | :24:28. | |
unblemished and there seems no end in sight. | :24:28. | :24:31. | |
Now it's a lesson for parents everywhere - think twice before | :24:31. | :24:34. | |
giving your children free reign on your iPad. For the parents of a | :24:34. | :24:37. | |
five-year-old gaming fan, it meant a bill of more than �1,500. Duncan | :24:37. | :24:42. | |
Kennedy has the story. There are some children's games | :24:42. | :24:47. | |
that are free, but five year-old Danny found out there are others as | :24:47. | :24:54. | |
well. I have already got the password. This iPad fan is keen on | :24:55. | :25:00. | |
zombies and found himself an online game, not realising he was running | :25:00. | :25:05. | |
up a bill for thousands. I just clicked on it because it said it | :25:06. | :25:12. | |
was free. I gave it to my dad, and he put the pass word in. And the | :25:12. | :25:19. | |
next day, it did not remind me. Danny had access to the game at the | :25:19. | :25:25. | |
pestering his parents for the password. When his mum, Sharon, saw | :25:25. | :25:30. | |
the �1,700 bill, she could not believe it. Horrified. I was | :25:31. | :25:36. | |
flabbergasted it could amount to �1,700. I am still not 100% sure | :25:36. | :25:43. | |
how he got to that when it said it was free. Apple has refunded the | :25:43. | :25:47. | |
amount, but some experts say game developers need to make it clearer | :25:47. | :25:52. | |
when they cost money. Apple need to be careful to ask for passwords | :25:52. | :25:56. | |
every time a purchase is made within a game. Parents need to be | :25:56. | :26:00. | |
aware that real money is being spent in these games, and passwords | :26:00. | :26:06. | |
need to be kept secret. Danny can still play on his iPad, but now | :26:06. | :26:10. | |
with strict controls. Just so his parents don't have to take a tablet | :26:11. | :26:16. | |
of a medicinal kind, the next time the bill comes in! | :26:16. | :26:18. | |
Europe's most famous volcano, Mount Etna, has been erupting with | :26:18. | :26:23. | |
spectacular affect. The volcano, which is in Eastern Sicily, has | :26:23. | :26:26. | |
been sending plumes of ash thousands of metres into the air. | :26:26. | :26:29. | |
But despite the enormous clouds of ash, flights in and out of Sicily | :26:29. | :26:35. | |
have not been disrupted. Let's take a look at the weather | :26:35. | :26:45. | |
:26:45. | :26:45. | ||
The weather is not very spectacular at the moment. We needed the | :26:45. | :26:49. | |
daffodils to brighten up St David's Day and cloudy skies across most | :26:49. | :26:57. | |
parts of Wales, and that will carry on into the weekend. But it will be | :26:57. | :27:03. | |
dry. Tonight, we have had clear skies across Scotland. They were | :27:03. | :27:07. | |
works outwards overnight. Where we get the clear skies is where we | :27:07. | :27:11. | |
will get the frost. You can see the extent through northern England, | :27:11. | :27:16. | |
through parts of Wales, south-west England and parts of Northern | :27:16. | :27:21. | |
Ireland. Elsewhere, cloud will keep the temperature is that little bit | :27:21. | :27:25. | |
higher and keeping a way the Sunshine tomorrow. Most likely | :27:25. | :27:28. | |
spots to see some Sunshine is southern parts of Scotland, | :27:28. | :27:35. | |
northern England. As we go through to 3pm in the afternoon, they might | :27:35. | :27:41. | |
be brightness in Devon and Cornwall. But it will be feeling chilly. In | :27:41. | :27:45. | |
East Anglia and south-east England, the cloud is less likely to break | :27:45. | :27:51. | |
up. Some Sunny spells from time to time, less likely across Northern | :27:51. | :27:58. | |
Ireland. North West Scotland is one of the few places that could see | :27:58. | :28:02. | |
outbreaks of patchy rain. Saturday evening, we keep the dry theme | :28:02. | :28:08. | |
going. Clear skies edging further south. Frost across southern parts | :28:08. | :28:14. | |
of England and Wales. On Sunday, it gets harder to find anything in the | :28:14. | :28:18. | |
way and much of Sunshine. Temperatures around seven or eight | :28:18. | :28:23. | |
degrees. There is a glimmer of hope as we go into the early part of | :28:23. | :28:28. | |
next week, winds coming in from the South East should bring milder air | :28:28. | :28:35. |
