:00:18. > :00:21.from the dock after they started fighting with prison guards. The
:00:22. > :00:24.judge said they had butchered Fusilier Lee Rigby in a barbaric

:01:08. > :01:12.of children have been diagnosed as dyslexic, but now a group of experts

:01:56. > :01:58.News at 6. The two men who murdered Fusilier Lee Rigby outside the
:01:59. > :02:03.Woolwich barracks in London last year have been given life sentences.
:02:04. > :02:06.Michael Adebolajo was told he will die in prison, and 22-year-old
:02:07. > :02:11.Michael Adebowale will spend at least 45 years behind bars. The
:02:12. > :02:13.judge said the two British Muslim converts had butchered the
:02:14. > :02:16.25-year-old soldier to death in a barbaric murder that would have a
:02:17. > :02:24.lasting and severe effect on his family. The two men weren't in court
:02:25. > :02:27.to hear their sentences - they'd been dragged from the dock after
:02:28. > :02:37.fighting broke out. June Kelly is at the Old Bailey. The judge told the
:02:38. > :02:41.two men that what they had done was a betrayal of Islam. They started
:02:42. > :02:46.shouting back from the dock, that it was not. There were scuffs and
:02:47. > :02:55.security staff and the two men were taken down to the cells and Michael
:02:56. > :02:58.Adebolajo had to be carried down the stairs. They were not in court to
:02:59. > :03:04.hear the sentences. This report contains some flash photography. It
:03:05. > :03:11.is ten weeks since Lee Rigby's killers were convicted. Today they
:03:12. > :03:14.were brought back for sentencing. Michael Adebolajo and Michael
:03:15. > :03:19.Adebowale saw themselves as soldiers of Allah. Michael Adebolajo
:03:20. > :03:25.described the killing as an act of war. So Lee Rigby, who had survived
:03:26. > :03:30.the battlefields of Afghanistan lost his life in a barbaric act on a
:03:31. > :03:34.London street. In court for the sentencing, those who loved Lee
:03:35. > :03:40.Rigby. The prosecution said their lives had been changed forever for
:03:41. > :03:44.the worse. The family welcomes the whole life and significant sentences
:03:45. > :03:48.that have been passed on his killers. We feel that no other
:03:49. > :03:52.sentence would have been acceptable and we would like to thank the judge
:03:53. > :03:57.and the courts for handing down what we believe to be the right prison
:03:58. > :04:04.terms. We would like to thank everyone who has supported us in the
:04:05. > :04:08.last nine months. It has brought us a lot of comfort and we feel
:04:09. > :04:16.satisfied that justice has been served for Lee. It just remains to
:04:17. > :04:21.be staid - rest in peace Lee. Lee Rigby's wife said their son would
:04:22. > :04:28.grow up to see images of his dad that no one should endure. Lee's
:04:29. > :04:34.uncle spoke to the BBC. We have just seen this as a murder. I think that
:04:35. > :04:41.is the hardest thing to comprehend. Lee Rigby in a Help For Heroes top
:04:42. > :04:46.was targeted by the killers. As he crossed the road, they drove their
:04:47. > :04:52.car at him. Michael Adebolajo tried to behead him with a meat cleaver
:04:53. > :04:58.and Michael Adebowale was cutting at his body with a knife. It culminated
:04:59. > :05:07.in them dragging his dead body into the road to put on public display.
:05:08. > :05:11.With his hands soaked in blood, Michael Adebolajo delivered a
:05:12. > :05:16.message. They waited for police and their plan was to be shot by
:05:17. > :05:24.firearms officers, martyring themselves as they saw it. Michael
:05:25. > :05:28.Adebolajo ran at the police officer. Michael Adebowale was then
:05:29. > :05:33.surrounded. In one hand a revolver and in the other a knife. He too was
:05:34. > :05:37.shot. These two men wanted to end their lives together on their chosen
:05:38. > :05:43.day with the world watching. Instead, they were spend the rest of
:05:44. > :05:50.their lives apart and Michael Adebolajo will die behind bars. The
:05:51. > :05:55.judge said that neither man had shown any remorse. For the family
:05:56. > :05:58.this is the final chapter of the trial process, but as was
:05:59. > :06:06.acknowledged in court, there is no end when it comes to their sense of
:06:07. > :06:09.loss. Thank you. Northern Ireland's First Minister, Peter Robinson, is
:06:10. > :06:12.so furious about the collapse of the case against the Hyde Park bombing
:06:13. > :06:15.suspect that he has threatened to resign. The case against John Downey
:06:16. > :06:18.was thrown out of court yesterday after it emerged he'd been assured
:06:19. > :06:21.in a letter from government officials that he was no longer a
:06:22. > :06:24.wanted man. Mr Robinson is demanding a judicial inquiry into the secret
:06:25. > :06:27.letters given to paramilitary suspects. It's now emerged that 38
:06:28. > :06:34.of the letters were signed under the current government, as our Ireland
:06:35. > :06:39.correspondent Chris Buckler reports. They are murders engraved in the
:06:40. > :06:47.memories of many. The bombing at Hyde Park killed four soldiers from
:06:48. > :06:51.the Household Cavalry. Although he denied involvement in the killings,
:06:52. > :06:54.John Downey was the main suspect and yesterday he walked free from court,
:06:55. > :06:57.because of an assurance from the Government that he would not be
:06:58. > :07:02.prosecuted. This cannot happen again. Today the Prime Minister
:07:03. > :07:08.admitted that that had been a huge mistake. First let me say I
:07:09. > :07:12.understand the depth of anger and concern that people will feel ray
:07:13. > :07:18.cross this country about the appalling events that happened in
:07:19. > :07:28.1982 and the fact that the person responsible is not going to be
:07:29. > :07:32.tried. Yes, 71.12%. When people voted in support of the Good Friday
:07:33. > :07:37.agreement, the politicians hadn't agreed on what to do about so-called
:07:38. > :07:41.on the runs. People suspected of terrorist offences. The then Prime
:07:42. > :07:46.Minister, Tony Blair, give a written assurance to Sinn Fein that he would
:07:47. > :07:51.address the issue. Since then 200 letter have been given to Republican
:07:52. > :08:02.suspected of terrorist offences. They ashoed them -- assured them
:08:03. > :08:05.they would not face prosecution. However unionists say they knew
:08:06. > :08:08.nothing about the deal with Sinn Fein and it strained relationships
:08:09. > :08:13.to the point where the First Minister has threatened to resign,
:08:14. > :08:18.unless there is a judicial review. I'm not prepared to be the First
:08:19. > :08:22.Minister of a Government that has kept in the dark on matter that are
:08:23. > :08:30.relevant, very relevant to what we are doing. We have spent the last
:08:31. > :08:36.number of months dealing with the Hass talks. That they were about
:08:37. > :08:42.people getting justice. Now we find that they never would get justice.
:08:43. > :08:46.In a place where divisions are too obvious, claims of secret deals are
:08:47. > :08:55.capable of eroding trust. But Sinn Fein is defending the process that
:08:56. > :09:00.up to now wasn't made public. Peter can resign. But that won't address
:09:01. > :09:05.the past. That is something that we will to return to. Relationships
:09:06. > :09:08.often seem strained here, but the revelations have done real damage
:09:09. > :09:15.and Dee that is a perception that this scheme was set up specifically
:09:16. > :09:20.and exclusively for Republicans. With claims that this was an
:09:21. > :09:26.amnesty, Conservative and unionist politicians are asking why the
:09:27. > :09:28.soldiers at Bloody Sunday still face potential prosecution. Northern
:09:29. > :09:34.Ireland's past again hanging over the politics of the present. Our
:09:35. > :09:37.Political Editor Nick Robinson is in the Houses of Parliament England's
:09:38. > :09:40.Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt has backed calls
:09:41. > :09:45.What chance of a he zru. The review Peter Robinson will not get. But
:09:46. > :09:50.ministers know they will have to make some concession. They have said
:09:51. > :09:55.there will be an inquiry into how this particular mistake was made.
:09:56. > :10:01.They have also said they will be fact-checking to make sure a similar
:10:02. > :10:05.mistake cannot be made. But there is something deeper at stake, not just
:10:06. > :10:09.the the fact the Northern Ireland administration claim they were kept
:10:10. > :10:13.in the dark, but also the sense that something was being done that means
:10:14. > :10:17.there were different rules for different parties on the two sides
:10:18. > :10:22.of this long and bloody conflict. And it is that that has for so long
:10:23. > :10:27.caused anger not just in Northern Ireland, but among many people here
:10:28. > :10:30.in Westminster as well. There is one key fact which has dogged the
:10:31. > :10:37.Northern Ireland peace process. It is simply this - the argument that
:10:38. > :10:41.opt one hand you have to wipe the slate clean of the grim past in
:10:42. > :10:45.order to make progress and yet the outrage that causes to individuals
:10:46. > :10:53.involved who are still suffering hurt and are still suffering pain.
:10:54. > :10:57.Thank you. The dd bod kwi which advises the Government on the
:10:58. > :11:03.national minimum wage has recommended it be increased by 3%.
:11:04. > :11:08.The Chancellor called for an above inflation rise and said it would
:11:09. > :11:25.need to do to ?7 an hour to have its value restored to what it was before
:11:26. > :11:28.the banking crisis. The Co-op is to sell off its farming business and is
:11:29. > :11:31.also considering the future of its pharmacy chain in a bid to revive
:11:32. > :11:34.the troubled mutual. The Co-op's expected to announce a loss of
:11:35. > :11:37.around ?2 billion next month - the biggest in the group's history. The
:11:38. > :11:40.losses are mainly from the Co-op's bank, which had to be bailed out by
:11:41. > :11:43.investors last year. Our business correspondent Emma Simpson reports.
:11:44. > :11:46.The Co-Op, a family face on the high street. But the group is hurtling
:11:47. > :11:48.into the red. Its results were never going to be pretty. Now we know the
:11:49. > :11:55.losses will run into the billions. The Co-Op had a terrible 2013. The
:11:56. > :11:59.main thing that went wrong they found a 1.5 billion black hole in
:12:00. > :12:05.the bank and sorting that out and the other things means they may end
:12:06. > :12:10.up making more than two billion in losses. Here is the fall out. The
:12:11. > :12:15.Co-Op is one of Britain's biggest farmers, going back more than 100
:12:16. > :12:22.years. No I the for sale sign is going up. It has 15 farms in the UK.
:12:23. > :12:27.All being sold. They cover more than 17,000 hectares of land. Producing
:12:28. > :12:31.mainly cereals. There are 200 workers in a business no longer
:12:32. > :12:37.deemed to be essential. Britain's biggest mutual is a sprawling mix of
:12:38. > :12:43.businesses from food to pharmacies. This chain with more than 750 stores
:12:44. > :12:51.may also end up being sold. The new management believe big changes need
:12:52. > :12:55.to be prescribed to restore the Co-Op's fortunes. This bastion of
:12:56. > :13:02.the co-operative movement goes back a long way. Its future is now being
:13:03. > :13:07.reshaped some predict a clash of values. You will see strategies
:13:08. > :13:10.presented by management and more rigorous questioning from the bottom
:13:11. > :13:14.up and you will see a lot of unhappiness I think from many of the
:13:15. > :13:18.members who feel like they're shifting fromming with a
:13:19. > :13:24.co-operative to being a corporation. Make your opinion count. The boss is
:13:25. > :13:27.asking the members what they think their mutual should look like and
:13:28. > :13:32.whatever their views it seems change is looming which could lead to big
:13:33. > :13:39.job losses as this group tries to get back on its feet. The Russian
:13:40. > :13:42.President Vladimir Putin has ordered an immediate test of combat
:13:43. > :13:48.readiness of troops in the central and western part of Russia. It comes
:13:49. > :13:52.after the overthrow of a key ally - the Ukrainian president - Victor
:13:53. > :13:54.Yanukovic. Today in Ukraine activists were combing Mr
:13:55. > :13:58.Yanukovic's enormous presidential retreat for evidence of his alleged
:13:59. > :14:06.crimes and lavish spending. Our correspondent Steve Rosenberg
:14:07. > :14:10.reports. When Viktor Yanukovych fled his luxury estate, there were seek
:14:11. > :14:14.represents he wanted destroyed. Documents were disposed of in this
:14:15. > :14:19.reservoir, but they didn't disappear. Hours later, a team of
:14:20. > :14:25.divers fished them out. And ammunition too. Now, the recovered
:14:26. > :14:33.documents are being dried. Rather fittingly in one of Viktor
:14:34. > :14:39.Yanukovych's own saunas. Each Ed folder had from one hundred to five
:14:40. > :14:47.hundred pages. If we didn't rescue them within 72 hours they would die.
:14:48. > :14:53.The documents are scanned. Some show millions in cash payments and
:14:54. > :14:57.extravagant spending. Like the $6 million Viktor Yanukovych spent on
:14:58. > :15:03.furniture for this boat. A banquet hall in his back garden. The team
:15:04. > :15:07.investigating say they have fished around 50,000 documents from the
:15:08. > :15:11.lake. There are details of bank accounts. Transactions, property
:15:12. > :15:18.deals - all relating to Viktor Yanukovych and his luxury Villa. It
:15:19. > :15:23.is a race to dry them and save them and analyse them. The team didn't
:15:24. > :15:28.just try to drown the documents, they tried burn some too. There are
:15:29. > :15:32.details about pension funds, about companies that had connections with
:15:33. > :15:37.the presidential residence and all of this will be handed to the police
:15:38. > :15:42.for a thorough investigation. The police arrived while we were filming
:15:43. > :15:52.and checked the cupboards. Inside, was a giant silver Faberge egg and
:15:53. > :15:56.something to wash it down with. Today prosecutors accused Viktor
:15:57. > :16:01.Yanukovych of stealing billions. They intend to review every economic
:16:02. > :16:10.deal he made and request international help to trace his
:16:11. > :16:13.assets. Our top story this evening. Two British Muslim converts have
:16:14. > :16:20.been sentenced to a life behind bars for the murder of Fusilier Lee
:16:21. > :16:24.Rigby. Still to come: The baby dubbed the miracle of 3rd Avenue
:16:25. > :16:33.after her British mother gave birth on a New York street. Later, on BBC
:16:34. > :16:36.London. A man from Sutton was jailed for four years for killing a man
:16:37. > :16:39.with a single punch. Now, the sentence could be reviewed. And, Sir

:16:43. > :16:47.inspiring a new generation of athletes.
:16:48. > :16:53.Millions of people have been diagnosed with dyslexia, now a group
:16:54. > :16:58.of experts is calling for the term to be scrapped because they say it's
:16:59. > :17:03.unscientific and lacks educational value. The NHS in England estimates
:17:04. > :17:06.that between 4% and 8% of the population have the learning
:17:07. > :17:10.disorder. It's recognised in education guidelines and disability
:17:11. > :17:15.discrimination law in England and Wales. But the experts from Yale and
:17:16. > :17:20.Durham universities say the term "dyslexia" is used to broadly that
:17:21. > :17:23.it becomes "meaningless". That prompted sharp comment and criticism
:17:24. > :17:29.from some parents up-and-down the country, as Danny Savage has been
:17:30. > :17:34.finding out. What's next? Sid is seven years old and was diagnosed
:17:35. > :17:40.with dyslexia last year. Once-a-week he has a special one-to-one lesson
:17:41. > :17:51.to help him. Dyslexia what sort of things do you find difficult to do?
:17:52. > :17:57.Reading, writing and other, like tricky words and spelling. His
:17:58. > :18:02.parents pay to have Sid assessed and say a diagnosis was essential. It
:18:03. > :18:07.was exstroo Emily important to get him diagnosed. That's... It's led me
:18:08. > :18:12.to being able to get him help he needs. He was struggling at schooled
:18:13. > :18:16.school. He wasn't enjoying going to school. Now he is. He likes nothing
:18:17. > :18:21.he is dyslexia for the fact he is different from everybody else. It
:18:22. > :18:25.has made him more confident. Experts have today said the term dyslexia
:18:26. > :18:30.should be abandoned. It's too broad to be meaningful, they say, instead
:18:31. > :18:33.suggest that all those with reading difficulties should be treated
:18:34. > :18:38.equally. There's a significant number of children who have reading
:18:39. > :18:44.difficulties of one kind or another who don't get the diagnosis, don't
:18:45. > :18:47.get the extra help and sympathy. These youngsters suffer as a result
:18:48. > :18:52.of this practice. The new suggestion is that professionals like teachers
:18:53. > :18:55.should spot reading difficulties early in any child and intervene as
:18:56. > :19:00.quickly as possible as opposed to the sometimes lengthy process of
:19:01. > :19:05.looking for a diagnosis of dyslexia, and then getting the specialist
:19:06. > :19:10.tuition. Those who treat dyslexia say there is great value in a
:19:11. > :19:16.diagnosis. It also helps people engage with things like schools and
:19:17. > :19:19.authorities, in terms of getting the support they need to be successful
:19:20. > :19:24.at school or the workplace or even get a job. What has been suggested
:19:25. > :19:29.today is a complete rethink about the way reading difficulties are
:19:30. > :19:34.assessed. Lindsay Davenport, BBC News, Leeds. The Health Secretary,
:19:35. > :19:37.Jeremy Hunt, has backed calls to dissolve the trust that runs
:19:38. > :19:41.Stafford Hospital that was hit by scandal. Mr Hunt said Mid
:19:42. > :19:44.Staffordshire NHS Trust would be scrapped and while its two hospitals
:19:45. > :19:47.would remain open, many services would move to other hospitals. The
:19:48. > :19:52.Trust has been in administration since April when services were
:19:53. > :19:56.deemed "unsustainable." Campaigners, who oppose the move, said they may
:19:57. > :20:01.challenge the decision in the courts. The NHS in Wales is paying
:20:02. > :20:04.for heart patients to be treated in England after warnings that people
:20:05. > :20:08.were dying while waiting for surgery. It's been confirmed that
:20:09. > :20:13.almost 100 people had died over five years while on the waiting list. The
:20:14. > :20:19.Royal College of Surgeons has raised concerns for the second time in six
:20:20. > :20:24.months about the risk to patients. Our Branwen Jeffreys reports from
:20:25. > :20:29.Cardiff. Life-saving surgery can fix damaged hearts, but waiting too long
:20:30. > :20:33.puts lives at risk. Over the last five years, 99 people have died on
:20:34. > :20:40.the waiting list for heart surgery in Wales. Robin Williams struggles
:20:41. > :20:45.for breath. He has had a heart bypass and may need further surgery.
:20:46. > :20:49.He's part of a support group for heart patients and says many are
:20:50. > :20:55.struggling to live with the anxiety of waiting. A lot of the families
:20:56. > :21:02.are complaining. They complain to me, and the patients complain, but
:21:03. > :21:05.they don't want me to complain on their behalf to the NHS in case they
:21:06. > :21:10.get taken off the list. That particular fear may be misplaced.
:21:11. > :21:14.It's hard to complain when you are ill. Surgeons share the concerns
:21:15. > :21:20.that some patients are waiting too long. The issue isn't with the
:21:21. > :21:23.quality of heart surgery here in south Wales, it's the amount of time
:21:24. > :21:27.it might take you to get to the operating table. Very simply, the
:21:28. > :21:32.risk that you could die, waiting for a heart operation in Wales. How many
:21:33. > :21:36.people wait a long time in Wales and England? The heart surgery waiting
:21:37. > :21:42.list figures for December show the difference. Waiting over 36 weeks
:21:43. > :21:50.were 60 people in England. In Wales, which has a very small population in
:21:51. > :21:54.comparison, 183. So Wales is now paying three heart centres in
:21:55. > :21:57.England to treat patients. The Chief Medical Officer told me it it is

:22:01. > :22:04.operations provided through other places in England, other centres in
:22:05. > :22:08.England. People are being reviewed on the waiting lists and prioritised
:22:09. > :22:11.and offered the opportunity to have their treatment in different
:22:12. > :22:17.centres. The NHS in Wales has struggled with waiting times,
:22:18. > :22:20.pressures on A, and to cut waiting for heart surgery in the long-term
:22:21. > :22:25.could cost the health service here millions of pounds. Branwen
:22:26. > :22:29.Jeffreys, BBC News, Cardiff. It was one of the most start ling images of
:22:30. > :22:33.the recent storms, the Railtrack at Dawlish, which connects Devon and
:22:34. > :22:37.Cornwall to the rest of the country, destroyed by the huge waves. Now, a
:22:38. > :22:41.massive engineering operation is underway to restore the main rail
:22:42. > :22:45.link. Our correspondent, Richard Westcott, has been to see the damage
:22:46. > :22:50.close up for the first time. He is there now. Richard. Sophie, around
:22:51. > :22:55.here they are calling this "the hole" the 100 meter stretch of track
:22:56. > :22:58.that was completely destroyed by the Atlantic a few weeks ago. These guys
:22:59. > :23:03.are working through the night, like they are every night today, for the
:23:04. > :23:11.first time, they let us in to see how they are planning to fix the
:23:12. > :23:14.line. It's one of the most rain soaked winter. The only rail link to
:23:15. > :23:21.Cornwall and much of Devon, swinging in the wind like a rope bridge. This
:23:22. > :23:25.is that gaping hole today. It's the first time cameras have been allowed
:23:26. > :23:29.in. This machine is pumping around 5,000 tonnes of concrete into the
:23:30. > :23:34.new wall, they will shore it up with steel rods and eventually, around
:23:35. > :23:38.April time, they will lay the new track, ruffle where I'm walking now
:23:39. > :23:45.-- roughly where I am he a walking now. The race is to fix the line.
:23:46. > :23:49.300 people, working night and day. Dodging the tides. Building a
:23:50. > :23:54.tougher wall to avoid the scene that met engineers on that first morning.
:23:55. > :23:59.A bomb site. It looked like an explosion in the ground and a bomb
:24:00. > :24:03.had literally hit the tracks. It, basically, was a great big hole. In
:24:04. > :24:07.fact, the repair work stretches way beyond the town. It's not just about
:24:08. > :24:14.that famous piece of missing sea wall at Dawlish, they have actually
:24:15. > :24:18.lost a third of a mile of this wall which keeps the track safe. This
:24:19. > :24:24.famous line has been confronting the sea for 170 years, it's a history
:24:25. > :24:28.not lost on the people working here. The challenge is -- challenges that
:24:29. > :24:32.we have, the tides, the weather, and the time constraints, obviously the
:24:33. > :24:35.Victorians would have had all these without the technology, the tools
:24:36. > :24:39.and techniques we have. You have to admire how they did it in the first
:24:40. > :24:43.place, given the challenges we are having now putting it back. The
:24:44. > :24:48.images will be etched on people's memories for years to come. The new
:24:49. > :24:54.line should be ready for the Easter holidays unless this beautiful
:24:55. > :24:58.weather suddenly turns ugly again. Richard Westcott, BBC News, Dawlish.
:24:59. > :25:01.The mirdcle of 3rd Avenue that is what they are you calling the baby
:25:02. > :25:04.in New York who was born in the gutter. Her mother, who is British,
:25:05. > :25:08.had just gone into labour and was standing outside her home trying to
:25:09. > :25:12.get a taxi to the hospital. In true New York style, a camera crew
:25:13. > :25:18.happened to be passing by and film it Auld. As nick Bryant reports now
:25:19. > :25:24.from New York. Say hello. Say hello. She is precious. , yeahs latest a--
:25:25. > :25:29.New York's latest attraction. Now safely in her British mother's arms,
:25:30. > :25:34.after being delivered in the gutter. Realising she was in labour, Polly
:25:35. > :25:39.McCourt tried to hail the cab with the help of a friendly door man. It
:25:40. > :25:44.was the start of a dramatic few New York minutes. He was trying to hail
:25:45. > :25:49.a cab. A woman hailed a cab and got into it. I went, "no, that's my cab.
:25:50. > :25:53.I want that cab." This New York nativity scene was captured by a
:25:54. > :25:56.passing new crew which watched as Polly gave birth at the start of the
:25:57. > :26:02.evening rush-hour. Stuck in traffic, her husband arriveded moments after
:26:03. > :26:05.their new daughter. I knew instantly that it was Polly. Then I feared the
:26:06. > :26:10.worse. You think - she's been knocked down. It's been the
:26:11. > :26:14.bitterest of New York winters. Onlookers immediately started taking
:26:15. > :26:18.off their clothes to keep the newborn baby warm. One woman offered
:26:19. > :26:22.up her coat. They have lost her phone number. They will always
:26:23. > :26:26.remember her name. Now you have named your baby the middle name
:26:27. > :26:37.after Isabelle. It was meant to be my name. It was meant to be Isla
:26:38. > :26:45.Polly, it's now Isla Im McCourt. She weighed in 6llbs and 7 ounces. The
:26:46. > :26:51.city that supposedly never sleeps. Time now for a look at the weather:
:26:52. > :26:55.She was lucky it wasn't snowing at the time. They have had a lot of
:26:56. > :27:02.snow in New York this winter. We have had very little. There is some
:27:03. > :27:08.in this forecast. Tonight it's rain. Ahead of this cloud we have had
:27:09. > :27:12.sunshine and showers. Some across central Scotland which are fading
:27:13. > :27:15.away. The cloud will swamp all areas over night tonight. It could be
:27:16. > :27:18.heavy for a time. It whizzes through quickly because of the strength of
:27:19. > :27:22.the wind. As it clears, it may turn chilly in Northern Ireland. For most
:27:23. > :27:26.places it will be a fairly mild night. The rain hasn't completely
:27:27. > :27:30.gone. In the morning a soggy start across parts of Scotland and eastern
:27:31. > :27:33.England, takes a while before it heads out into the North Sea. A
:27:34. > :27:37.breezy day with a mix of sunshine and showers. More showers tomorrow,
:27:38. > :27:41.certainly across the bulk of England and Wales compared to today. The
:27:42. > :27:48.rain hasn't really cleared from Shetland, it will stay soggy here.
:27:49. > :27:51.For mainland Scotland there will be sun and showers. Sunny spells and
:27:52. > :27:55.showers for Northern Ireland. That is the theme across England and
:27:56. > :27:58.Wales. The feeling fresh in the breeze. The breeze could get gusty,
:27:59. > :28:01.particularly close to the showers. There will be more of them across
:28:02. > :28:08.the Midlands, Wales and southern England compared to today. Heavy
:28:09. > :28:13.ones possibly with hail and thunder mixed in. Tomorrow night, a little
:28:14. > :28:22.area of low pressure, the small features are difficult to pin down.
:28:23. > :28:26.There will be strong winds with that low. Potential for lively gusts
:28:27. > :28:29.along the south coast and a risk of snow. At the moment, northern
:28:30. > :28:33.England, the Midlands and Wales. Over the hills here, that is where
:28:34. > :28:37.we are most likely to see snow. There is uncertainty. The message is
:28:38. > :28:41.stay tuned to the forecast. We will firm up on the details for Friday
:28:42. > :28:43.soon. That is all from the BBC News at Six, goodbye from me. On BBC One
