:00:08. > :00:12.Unemployment is down again, with the biggest fall in people claiming

:00:13. > :00:16.Jobseekers' Allowance for 16 years. The number of jobless is down 18,000

:00:17. > :00:26.- the government says it proves its policy is working: today on the day

:00:27. > :00:30.we concede there are 1 million more people in work, 1 million reasons to

:00:31. > :00:39.stick to the economic plan that we have. Food bank are on the rise.

:00:40. > :00:42.Even in work you are worse off and it is a Prime Minister in total

:00:43. > :00:47.denial about the cost of living crisis. We'll be looking the trend

:00:48. > :00:50.in wages for those in work. Also tonight. The Savile scandal - the

:00:51. > :00:54.police watchdog investigates a former officer at the West Yorkshire

:00:55. > :01:05.force who is accused of acting on behalf of the TV presenter. A deal

:01:06. > :01:12.in the making of America's debt crisis. The goal that set England on

:01:13. > :01:20.the road to Rio - Manager Roy Hodgson says his team can win the

:01:21. > :01:24.World Cup. I will explain why one in five of the world's children is

:01:25. > :01:30.still missing up on basic vaccine. And who will take centre stage in

:01:31. > :01:51.the autumn internationals in the union? -- in rugby union.

:01:52. > :02:01.Good evening and welcome to the BBC News at Six. There were angry

:02:02. > :02:09.exchanges today in the Commons about the UK's economic prospect. But

:02:10. > :02:13.David Cameron insisted that the economic policy is the right one.

:02:14. > :02:17.Unemployment fell by 18,000 in the June to August period. In total just

:02:18. > :02:19.under 2.5 million people are unemployed. The number of people

:02:20. > :02:22.claiming Jobseekers' Allowance is down to 1.3 million, after the

:02:23. > :02:30.biggest fall for 16 years. Our Business Correspondent Emma Simpson

:02:31. > :02:38.has more details. There has been no slowdown in sales

:02:39. > :02:42.of fast-food here. At Kentucky fried chicken the appetite for cheaper

:02:43. > :02:54.food is continuing to create new jobs especially for young people. We

:02:55. > :03:01.are taking on 1600, most will be 25 or under. Where opening about 25 new

:03:02. > :03:06.stores this year. And we have done that for the past few years. The

:03:07. > :03:10.story of this company feeds in to an improving jobs picture. The figures

:03:11. > :03:16.today are good news. Unemployment down, the number of jobs up. But

:03:17. > :03:20.still no sign of an end to the squeeze on wages. That fuels more

:03:21. > :03:25.clashes at Prime Minister 's questions. These are welcome

:03:26. > :03:30.figures. Of course we all want to see living standards improve and

:03:31. > :03:34.last year disposable income increased. The way to deliver on

:03:35. > :03:41.living standards is to grow the economy and cut taxes. But with

:03:42. > :03:46.prices rising three times faster than pay, the Labour leader said

:03:47. > :03:50.recovery was not being felt in people 's pockets. The British

:03:51. > :03:54.people would be surprised to hear the Prime Minister telling them that

:03:55. > :04:00.their living standards are rising when they know that under him living

:04:01. > :04:04.standards of falling each month. One part of the economy that appears to

:04:05. > :04:08.be on the mend is the jobs market. Long-term unemployment is down by

:04:09. > :04:16.15,000. But the number of people working part time is up again at

:04:17. > :04:20.nearly 1.5 million. Youth unemployment fell slightly but still

:04:21. > :04:28.stubbornly high at more than 950,000. Getting that first job has

:04:29. > :04:34.not been easy for these young people. They're being helped neither

:04:35. > :04:38.this charity in east London. Shirley has been unemployed since graduating

:04:39. > :04:48.a year ago in spite of living just a few miles away from the city of

:04:49. > :04:55.London. I am worse off than when I was 18 with three A-levels and apart

:04:56. > :05:00.time job. It is crazy to think that because I am more highly skilled.

:05:01. > :05:04.They all hope that a job is just around the corner and that they will

:05:05. > :05:11.also start to benefit from the economic recovery.

:05:12. > :05:17.Our political editor is here. We need to look at two things. There

:05:18. > :05:23.are more jobs but people are saying that wages are low. The government

:05:24. > :05:26.wants to highlight the good news. 1 million jobs created since the

:05:27. > :05:30.general election. The opposition wants to highlight the fact that we

:05:31. > :05:35.are all feeling the squeeze and wages are not going up as fast as

:05:36. > :05:40.inflation. And then the politicians trying to highlight who got what

:05:41. > :05:44.wrong. David Cameron was able to quote a speech that the Labour

:05:45. > :05:48.leader gave three years ago, addicting that there would be 1

:05:49. > :05:53.million fewer jobs in the British economy as a result of government

:05:54. > :05:58.economic policy. Cameron was able to say there are now 1 million more.

:05:59. > :06:04.But Ed Miliband was able to say, this is not how it feels for people.

:06:05. > :06:07.They are feeling the squeeze. To try to defend himself the Prime Minister

:06:08. > :06:12.then said, do not look at the difference between inflation and

:06:13. > :06:16.wages, look at what economists call disposable income the money you have

:06:17. > :06:20.left after taxes. The Prime Minister said that was going up but the

:06:21. > :06:33.Labour leader said he had got his figures wrong. That people actually

:06:34. > :06:36.have less money in work than before. There's been a dramatic rise in the

:06:37. > :06:40.number of people using food banks - that's according to the Trussell

:06:41. > :06:43.Trust. The charity says it's handed out

:06:44. > :06:47.more than 350,000 food parcels since April this year, triple the number

:06:48. > :06:50.for the same period last year. It says the situation is "scandalous",

:06:51. > :06:53.but the government says the rise could be the result of more people

:06:54. > :07:00.being aware of food banks. From Manchester, Ed Thomas reports.

:07:01. > :07:07.If you're hungry and cannot afford to eat this is the place to come to.

:07:08. > :07:14.The food bank here is busier than ever before. One of the customers is

:07:15. > :07:18.Kerry who is training to be a hairdresser. She said her benefits

:07:19. > :07:24.do not cover rising bills and that means she goes hungry. I have a lot

:07:25. > :07:29.of anxiety. Just the world nowadays has just changed. Everything is

:07:30. > :07:35.higher in price. It feels that we are scroungers but we are just

:07:36. > :07:39.trying to survive. The story is a familiar one with more than 400 food

:07:40. > :07:44.banks in towns and cities across the UK. What is behind this growing

:07:45. > :07:49.demand? Is it because people are struggling in a difficult economy or

:07:50. > :07:55.something else? Awareness that if food is being offered for free, then

:07:56. > :08:02.people will take it. Angela Shannon is a manager here. Many who ask her

:08:03. > :08:06.for help blame benefit changes. She believes it is right to ask

:08:07. > :08:10.difficult questions. You are donating something and you do not

:08:11. > :08:18.want it just to go to the off-licence. Morally that cannot be

:08:19. > :08:21.right. One reason the government says numbers are going up is because

:08:22. > :08:27.job centres are now referring people to food banks. And changes to the

:08:28. > :08:31.welfare system will provide low earners with choices away from

:08:32. > :08:39.hand-outs. How many jobs have you applied for in the past three

:08:40. > :08:45.months? About 150. Do you really need to be here? If I could not come

:08:46. > :08:52.here I would end up having a breakdown. The problem is the longer

:08:53. > :08:57.it takes for the economy to recover, the longer someone will have to rely

:08:58. > :09:04.on food banks. There's been a new development on

:09:05. > :09:07.the Savile scandal. The police watchdog - the IPCC - says it's

:09:08. > :09:10.begun an investigation into a former officer on the West Yorkshire force

:09:11. > :09:19.who's alleged to have acted on behalf of the TV presenter. David

:09:20. > :09:29.Silitto has the latest. The closest Jimmy Savile King to an

:09:30. > :09:34.investigation was this interview. The allegations with their to the

:09:35. > :09:38.officer having at Tate on behalf of Jimmy Savile by inappropriately

:09:39. > :09:45.contacting Surrey police ahead of a police interview in 2009. Then there

:09:46. > :09:51.is the conduct of the interview. One big felt that down. I think he was

:09:52. > :09:55.arrogant. He thinks he thinks he's also untouchable. I think the police

:09:56. > :10:00.should have probed him or on the questions they asked him. The

:10:01. > :10:04.interview also reveals how Jimmy Savile fended off accusations. Did

:10:05. > :10:11.he really have such powerful friends? George Carman was a leading

:10:12. > :10:18.libel lawyer in the 1980s and 1990s and he also knew Jimmy Savile and

:10:19. > :10:22.his secrets. He talked about Jimmy Savile and that he had been

:10:23. > :10:27.cautioned by police in Manchester for sexual offences against

:10:28. > :10:33.children. At that age I did not understand the full ramifications of

:10:34. > :10:36.what that meant. Then there are the enquiries. At least six at the last

:10:37. > :10:41.count. The former Sunday Mirror editor Paul Conway has already

:10:42. > :10:48.spoken to three of them. We had too many enquiries on going. The tragedy

:10:49. > :10:56.here is we have a mixture of enquiries, extended NHS and police

:10:57. > :11:01.enquiries. I think there is now a compelling case for an overarching

:11:02. > :11:03.judicial enquiry into the multi-institutional failures

:11:04. > :11:09.surrounding Jimmy Savile and other cases. So another Jimmy Savile

:11:10. > :11:16.investigation begins. The questions keep on coming.

:11:17. > :11:18.In the past hour the US senate has agreed a deal to avoid America

:11:19. > :11:21.defaulting on its debts. Our Washington Correspondent Laura

:11:22. > :11:30.Trevelyan is on Capitol Hill with the latest for us now. Is this the

:11:31. > :11:33.real thing? We think it is. It has been announced on the floor of the

:11:34. > :11:38.Senate. They have agreed on the Senate side in a bipartisan way to

:11:39. > :11:41.reopen the government until the middle of January and to extend the

:11:42. > :11:47.debt ceiling until early February. To have a long-range planning

:11:48. > :11:50.committee on government finances which would report back on efforts

:11:51. > :11:54.to reach a compromise in the middle of December. It was the Republicans

:11:55. > :11:59.who wanted to shut down the government in order to force changes

:12:00. > :12:03.to the signature health care Law of the President. What have they got in

:12:04. > :12:09.return? Very little. Just crumbs as one senior senator put it. So this

:12:10. > :12:13.will be a tough vote when it comes to the House of Representatives. It

:12:14. > :12:18.will require a handful of Republicans to break ranks to pass

:12:19. > :12:21.it. Thousands of England fans are

:12:22. > :12:26.expected to make the journey to Brazil next summer. Now the team are

:12:27. > :12:29.heading to next year's World cup. Roy Hodgson's men beat Poland

:12:30. > :12:36.two-nil at Wembley last night, guaranteeing them a place in the

:12:37. > :12:42.finals. Today he said winning was not out of the question. It was the

:12:43. > :12:47.moment English put all could breathe a huge sigh of relief. Steven

:12:48. > :12:50.Gerrard is my goal to seal the jury last night against Poland sent his

:12:51. > :13:01.team to dreamland. For Roy Hodgson the relief was obvious. The weight

:13:02. > :13:08.of unexpected nation lifted at last. And he said that England could now

:13:09. > :13:15.win the World Cup. It is not impossible. I must also say that we

:13:16. > :13:22.have been in a slight transition period. I do not think we will go

:13:23. > :13:29.into any games believing we do not have a chance to win it. Not too

:13:30. > :13:36.many teams out there will be saying England, what an easy one. England

:13:37. > :13:40.have had two wins in their final two matches, transforming a stuttering

:13:41. > :13:44.campaign and giving a sense of optimism and freshness. Now players

:13:45. > :13:49.and fans can look forward to the ultimate World Cup experience. The

:13:50. > :13:54.base camp is booked. The luxury Rio hotel and here is where they will

:13:55. > :14:00.prepare for matches. But for the fans hoping to join the players on a

:14:01. > :14:06.quest, it will not come cheap. Tickets start at ?56. But for the

:14:07. > :14:16.World Cup final more than ?600. Currently the most reasonable direct

:14:17. > :14:23.flight is over ?1600. Travel companies are offering packages for

:14:24. > :14:31.around ?7,000. Following England has never been more expensive. You have

:14:32. > :14:36.to fly internally all the time so no doubt the prices will go up.

:14:37. > :14:42.Logistically it will be difficult. John Barnes is on his way to scoring

:14:43. > :14:48.the greatest ever poll against Brazil but 29 years on, he plays

:14:49. > :14:56.down his country 's chances. It is not just about the World Cup. It is

:14:57. > :14:59.about English football in the next ten years and putting building

:15:00. > :15:03.blocks in place. England will have to wait until December to find out

:15:04. > :15:09.exactly who they will play in Brazil. But for now at least they

:15:10. > :15:17.will be at the carnival in the spiritual home of football. Our top

:15:18. > :15:22.story this evening. Unemployment down again - the number of jobless

:15:23. > :15:26.has fallen by 18,000. And still to come: It fell to earth in a blaze of

:15:27. > :15:35.light. Now scientists hope they have recovered some of the meteor. In

:15:36. > :15:41.sport later on, you can hear much more from Roy Hodgson as the England

:15:42. > :15:54.manager reveals his plans for Brazil and the World Cup next year. Now the

:15:55. > :16:00.latest on the international battle against preventable deaths among

:16:01. > :16:06.children. The World Health Organisation says there has been

:16:07. > :16:10.huge progress in the past decade. Measles deaths have been cut by 70%.

:16:11. > :16:14.Polio is close to eradication. And global child mortality has fallen by

:16:15. > :16:19.nearly half since 1990, despite the population growing. But as our

:16:20. > :16:26.medical correspondent, Fergus Walsh, reports, millions of children are

:16:27. > :16:33.still missing out on basic vaccines. Giving every child the chance of

:16:34. > :16:38.life. In Laos, this baby has a higher likelihood of staying healthy

:16:39. > :16:44.than any previous generation. Vaccines play a key role. It is

:16:45. > :16:53.estimated they save to -3 million lives every year. 50 years ago,

:16:54. > :16:57.things were different. Even in Britain, children faced many

:16:58. > :17:01.diseases that have disappeared. Smallpox was eradicated in 1980,

:17:02. > :17:08.showing that vaccines can transform health. In addition to saving lives,

:17:09. > :17:12.vaccines reduce illness and prevent disability and illness and

:17:13. > :17:16.disability but a huge economic burden on the family and also

:17:17. > :17:21.government and the health system. Let's look at the basic vaccines

:17:22. > :17:27.that every child should get. There are 11, including measles and polio.

:17:28. > :17:32.TB is not needed everywhere. One in 20 of the world 's children is fully

:17:33. > :17:35.immunised, getting all of the doses required and most are in wealthier

:17:36. > :17:42.countries. Let's look at individual vaccines. This prevents meningitis

:17:43. > :17:48.and pneumonia but fewer than ten and 20, or have of children, are

:17:49. > :17:54.protected. Diphtheria, tetanus and whooping cough, that figure is

:17:55. > :17:58.better with 16 and 20 but that means around 20 million children every

:17:59. > :18:03.year do not get fully immunised and that failure as a human cost. 1.5

:18:04. > :18:09.million deaths every year from these vaccine preventable diseases, nearly

:18:10. > :18:16.two thirds from only two infections. You will cockle diseases and

:18:17. > :18:20.rotavirus, which causes diarrhoea. The first vaccines against these

:18:21. > :18:24.were introduced less than one decade ago. Rich countries use them and

:18:25. > :18:29.dozens of developing nations are beginning to. But there is a very

:18:30. > :18:34.long way to go. What are the hurdles? Many health services in

:18:35. > :18:37.developing countries are so overstretched there are not enough

:18:38. > :18:43.medical staff to carry out immunisation. Vaccines must be kept

:18:44. > :18:50.cool or they will perish and it can be difficult getting them to remote

:18:51. > :18:54.communities. So closing the immunisation gap between poor and

:18:55. > :19:00.wealthier nations remains a key target for improving children's

:19:01. > :19:04.health. The Prime Minister has added his voice to calls for an apology

:19:05. > :19:10.from the police to the former Cabinet minister Andrew Mitchell

:19:11. > :19:13.over the so-called Plebgate affair. David Cameron was commenting on the

:19:14. > :19:16.conclusions of the police watchdog which said that three senior

:19:17. > :19:19.officers had knowingly given a false account of their meeting with Mr

:19:20. > :19:25.Mitchell a year ago. Carole Walker is in Westminster for us tonight.

:19:26. > :19:29.Yesterday we had the Home Secretary added a the Prime Minister adding to

:19:30. > :19:35.pressure on the police. -- and today, the Prime Minister. Yes, this

:19:36. > :19:41.is unusual to talk about a specific case. What do with Cameron said at

:19:42. > :19:45.Question Time was that the account that police gave other meeting with

:19:46. > :19:52.Andrew Mitchell to discuss his clash with officers at the gates of

:19:53. > :19:56.Downing Street, he said that the accord was untrue, Andrew Mitchell

:19:57. > :20:00.was owed an apology and should be a proper investigation. In the last

:20:01. > :20:04.few minutes I have learned that the original investigation into this

:20:05. > :20:10.meeting, the officer recommended that the police involved should face

:20:11. > :20:13.disciplinary proceedings but that was overruled by the Chief

:20:14. > :20:19.Constables of the forces involved and do not forget, this comes after

:20:20. > :20:24.the most senior prosecutor is still considering whether to bring to

:20:25. > :20:28.trial any of the officers over that original clash in Downing Street

:20:29. > :20:34.over allegations that they made up their account more than one year

:20:35. > :20:36.ago. Thank you. The newly privatised Royal Mail is facing the first

:20:37. > :20:38.national postal strike in almost four years. The Communication

:20:39. > :20:42.Workers' Union, which represents more than 100,000 staff at Royal

:20:43. > :20:47.Mail, has called the strike for the 4th of November. The union is

:20:48. > :20:50.pushing for an agreement that would protect workers' current terms and

:20:51. > :20:56.conditions at the newly privatised company. The BBC has learned that

:20:57. > :20:59.more than 1700 mental health beds have been closed in the past two

:21:00. > :21:09.years in England, forcing some patients to travel hundreds of miles

:21:10. > :21:12.to receive care. The findings have prompted a leading psychiatrist to

:21:13. > :21:14.warn that mental health services in England are in crisis and the

:21:15. > :21:19.Government has acknowledged that things have to improve. Michael

:21:20. > :21:23.Buchanan reports. One in four of us will suffer some kind of mental

:21:24. > :21:26.problems in the course of one year. That's according to the mental

:21:27. > :21:32.health foundation. But services in England to help those most in need

:21:33. > :21:36.are under severe strain. When Kerry fell ill, the only available bed was

:21:37. > :21:42.miles from her home, which delayed her recovery. They did not know

:21:43. > :21:48.anything about who I was what was available to support me. I was held

:21:49. > :21:53.there for longer than I needed to be. In 2011-12, there were nearly

:21:54. > :21:58.19,000 mental health beds in England. Using Freedom of

:21:59. > :22:05.information requests, we discover that more than 1700 have been

:22:06. > :22:10.closed, that's 9%. Closing beds and shutting down wards is only part of

:22:11. > :22:15.the problem. Doctors say there is an increase in demand for these

:22:16. > :22:20.services. But put those two things together and you end up with more

:22:21. > :22:28.patients saying there is simply not enough help. We have got access

:22:29. > :22:32.standards, 18 week limit for physical health problems, but they

:22:33. > :22:36.left out mental health and we have to correct that so that people with

:22:37. > :22:39.mental health problems are treated with the same seriousness as someone

:22:40. > :22:46.with physical problems. Lucy would agree. She voluntarily looked for

:22:47. > :22:49.psychiatric help but ended up being detained by police for her own

:22:50. > :22:56.safety. It was after hours of frantic calls had failed to find any

:22:57. > :23:04.bed. I heard a lot of disagreement between the different services and I

:23:05. > :23:12.felt awkward and quite ashamed to be causing such a problem when I had

:23:13. > :23:17.not meant to. The bed closures mean that many awards are now running at

:23:18. > :23:21.100% capacity. With staff increasingly scrambling to find

:23:22. > :23:26.spaces in the private sector. We are in a crisis at the moment and

:23:27. > :23:31.short-term cuts in services and beds increased costs because the system

:23:32. > :23:38.is currently inefficient and costing more than that would do if we

:23:39. > :23:43.invested robbery. Most mental illness is on scene so it is easily

:23:44. > :23:48.overlooked by the NHS. The pressure on resources means that cannot

:23:49. > :23:51.continue. The operator of the Grangemouth oil refinery in Scotland

:23:52. > :23:53.says the plant will be shut down until at least Tuesday after

:23:54. > :23:58.negotiations with union leaders broke down. This morning the Unite

:23:59. > :24:04.union called off a 48-hour strike planned for Sunday. But the owners

:24:05. > :24:08.say that without an assurance that there will be no industrial action

:24:09. > :24:16.this winter, it will still shut down the plant. James Cook joins me now.

:24:17. > :24:22.What reaction has been, given that the union called off their strike?

:24:23. > :24:27.That is right and the problem is you cannot just flick a switch and turn

:24:28. > :24:32.this off and then turn it on again. The company which runs this said it

:24:33. > :24:36.was already running it down ahead of their strike on Sunday and without

:24:37. > :24:41.any guarantee that there will be no further action this winter, there

:24:42. > :24:45.was no point powering up. The union has accused the company of economic

:24:46. > :24:51.vandalism and holding Scotland to ransom. But it is important because

:24:52. > :24:56.this site provides 70% of filling stations in Scotland with fuel. They

:24:57. > :24:59.can get it elsewhere but it also powers a crucial oil pipeline and

:25:00. > :25:06.the effect on that is not clear but what began as a locals dispute is

:25:07. > :25:10.more serious. A huge rock believed to be part of a giant meteor

:25:11. > :25:15.weighing more than half a tonne has been raised from the lake where it

:25:16. > :25:17.crashed earlier this year. The meteor exploded above Central Russia

:25:18. > :25:20.back in February, shattering windows across the city of Chelyabinsk and

:25:21. > :25:29.injuring more than 1000 people. Here's our science editor, David

:25:30. > :25:33.Shukman. Across the sky of Russia last February, the dazzling,

:25:34. > :25:40.terrifying sight of a rock the size of a house hurtling from space. As

:25:41. > :25:47.it broke up, there were shock waves with the power of a nuclear weapons.

:25:48. > :25:56.The blast shattered windows, 1600 people needed treatment and no one

:25:57. > :26:01.knew this was coming. Today at a lake nearby, and underwater

:26:02. > :26:06.operation to retrieve the largest fragment found so far. It has taken

:26:07. > :26:11.months to locate. Eventually, it was taken ashore. A big moment for a

:26:12. > :26:17.region still shocked by what happened. The blackened service and

:26:18. > :26:24.round edges are the signatures of intense heat and melting. According

:26:25. > :26:30.to the scientist, the initial signs are that the rock is part of the

:26:31. > :26:35.meteorite that caused the damage. The team weighed the rock and

:26:36. > :26:42.meteorites are extremely heavy. This scales could not take it. It was a

:26:43. > :26:44.violent birth of the solar system that grated rocks like this and if

:26:45. > :26:52.they reach Earth, most burn up in the atmosphere but if you get

:26:53. > :26:56.through. Meteorites are so rare, you need to wear gloves. This one of the

:26:57. > :27:01.Natural History Museum fail on the North of England only one century

:27:02. > :27:05.ago but it is similar to the one that fell on Russia. Scientists hope

:27:06. > :27:11.that by studying these rocks from space, they can get a better handle

:27:12. > :27:16.on the possible dangers. Meteorites are evidence that we live in a very

:27:17. > :27:22.crowded corner of space. The rock in Russia will be really valuable. We

:27:23. > :27:27.can understand its behaviour as it was hurtling through the atmosphere

:27:28. > :27:30.at 46,000 mph and we can pull this piece out of the lake and look at

:27:31. > :27:37.its composition and structure in very fine detail. Never before has a

:27:38. > :27:40.meteorite been filmed and then find. The more that we know about these

:27:41. > :27:50.potential threats from space, the better. Now the weather.

:27:51. > :27:55.Not as impressive with a soggy start this morning. This was the South

:27:56. > :28:00.West first thing in this rain continued to push north and east

:28:01. > :28:03.with heavy pulses for Northern Ireland and night it focuses on

:28:04. > :28:08.Scotland for the rest of the evening and through the night. That rain

:28:09. > :28:12.will continue north and east, easing away with showers following behind

:28:13. > :28:16.and still windy over the next few hours across Wales and the

:28:17. > :28:20.Southwest. The persistent rain sets or night across the north-east of

:28:21. > :28:24.Scotland with showers for the north-west and showers running

:28:25. > :28:29.through this corridor but milder with temperatures at 11-13 degrees.

:28:30. > :28:33.I suspect first thing in the morning, it will be different for

:28:34. > :28:38.Scotland. Shelley with temperatures in single figures, low cloud and

:28:39. > :28:43.coastal fog to the east and still showers further west. Northern

:28:44. > :28:46.Ireland and northern England, dry and sunny, quite pleasant and

:28:47. > :28:51.despite showers lingering close to the M4, things will improve. It

:28:52. > :28:54.looks like a better day than today. The wind from the South West, but

:28:55. > :29:01.means temperatures will respond nicely. Particularly with sunshine.

:29:02. > :29:04.It is a risk of showers to the West and these could be heavy and

:29:05. > :29:09.thundery and the extreme north-east of Scotland stays rather grey, damp

:29:10. > :29:15.and disappointing. 7-12 degrees but with the sunshine in shelter, highs

:29:16. > :29:21.of 19 degrees. Still feeling pretty nice for this time of year. Starting

:29:22. > :29:28.Friday, it will not be long before this rain arrives and we do this

:29:29. > :29:32.again. Some quite heavy. That will track north and east into Saturday.

:29:33. > :29:37.Look to the west for a clue at what is to come for the weekend. Not bad

:29:38. > :29:46.but it stays pretty unsettled. More details throughout the evening.

:29:47. > :29:50.Thank you very much. That's all from us. Goodbye.
