:00:07. > :00:11.No more survivors have yet been found from the ferry that sank off

:00:12. > :00:14.the coast off South Korea. Nearly 300 are still missing. Divers are

:00:15. > :00:17.still searching the upturned ship - most of those on board were

:00:18. > :00:20.schoolchildren. Dramatic footage emerges of passengers clinging to

:00:21. > :00:27.the deck as the ship tilted into the water. Desperate and angry parents

:00:28. > :00:40.demand answers. The captain of the ship, who did get off, apologises.

:00:41. > :00:44.TRANSLATION: I am really sorry. I am deeply ashamed. I cannot put it into

:00:45. > :00:48.words. We'll be looking at what may have caused the ship to sink so

:00:49. > :00:54.quickly and why passengers were told to stay below deck. Also tonight...

:00:55. > :00:59.After overnight violence in eastern Ukraine, a breakthrough after Russia

:01:00. > :01:03.agrees or military groups should be disarmed. The most disastrous year

:01:04. > :01:07.in the history of the Co-op as it announces annual losses of ?2.5

:01:08. > :01:09.billion. The Speaker of the House of Commons tells the BBC Prime

:01:10. > :01:14.Minister's Questions is so rowdy some women MPs won't take part. And

:01:15. > :01:17.don't get too close. William and Kate visiting the Blue Mountains on

:01:18. > :01:30.the second day of their tour in Australia. On BBC London: five days

:01:31. > :01:34.of strike action announced on the Underground. Police discover an

:01:35. > :01:48.arsenal of weapons in one of their biggest ever done seizures.

:01:49. > :01:54.Good evening and welcome to the BBC News at Six. Divers are continuing

:01:55. > :01:57.to search for any survivors from the ferry that capsized off the coast of

:01:58. > :02:00.South Korea. Questions are now being asked as to why passengers were told

:02:01. > :02:04.to stay in their quarters for at least half an hour after the ship

:02:05. > :02:09.began to sink. 179 people have been rescued but almost 300 are missing,

:02:10. > :02:17.most of them school children. The captain did manage to get off and

:02:18. > :02:26.says he is sorry and deeply ashamed. The ship sank off the coast

:02:27. > :02:34.in the south of the country. The second day of this massive search

:02:35. > :02:38.operation. The South Korean president visits the rescue scene.

:02:39. > :02:43.Teams of divers are still searching for survivors. Families are about to

:02:44. > :02:51.visit the stricken ferry for the first time. Knowing sons and

:02:52. > :02:57.daughters were on board is too much for some. With no answers,

:02:58. > :03:02.frustration is mounting. TRANSLATION: I was in the school

:03:03. > :03:10.from 12pm to 7pm but they have repeatedly said the same things. The

:03:11. > :03:16.man at the helm is under the spotlight. The captain apologised,

:03:17. > :03:24.saying he was deeply ashamed. TRANSLATION: I am really sorry. I am

:03:25. > :03:29.deeply ashamed. I cannot put it into words. Rescuers are battling

:03:30. > :03:33.terrible weather conditions. One coastguard ship is setting off to

:03:34. > :03:37.where the ferry sank. It will take them an hour and a half to get there

:03:38. > :03:48.and it is laden with specialist diving equipment, which will help in

:03:49. > :03:51.the rescue operation. Harrowing accounts of what happened just

:03:52. > :04:00.before the ferry sank are beginning to emerge. One girl messaged her

:04:01. > :04:05.father... Dad, do not worry. I am wearing a life vest and I am with

:04:06. > :04:11.other girls. We are inside the ship, still in the hallway. Her distraught

:04:12. > :04:17.father wrote back, urging her to get out. She said, I cannot. The hallway

:04:18. > :04:26.is crowded with so many people. Now in hospital, this six-year-old was

:04:27. > :04:33.rescued from the ferry. Her parents and brother are still missing. She

:04:34. > :04:38.does not know. The search continues but hope is fading. The families

:04:39. > :04:46.know that hundreds of teenagers went down with the boat.

:04:47. > :04:52.So, why did the ferry sink so fast, and why were passengers told to stay

:04:53. > :04:57.put instead of to evacuate the ship? Our science editor, David Shukman,

:04:58. > :05:00.has been investigating. Leaning over but still accessible. This was the

:05:01. > :05:05.brief period yesterday when there was the best chance of a mass

:05:06. > :05:09.rescue. Everything went wrong incredibly rapidly and already the

:05:10. > :05:19.focus is shifting to how a ship that was only 20 years old could have got

:05:20. > :05:24.into this disastrous position. This should have been a routine journey.

:05:25. > :05:29.Yesterday morning, disaster struck. One theory is that the ship hit a

:05:30. > :05:41.rock. Another, for some reason, the vessel made a sudden turn. This is

:05:42. > :05:47.emerging as a plausible idea. It would explain why the ferry started

:05:48. > :05:51.listing or leaning to one side. It was soon tilting at more than five

:05:52. > :05:58.degrees, the critical threshold because that was the point of no

:05:59. > :06:01.return. Experts are amazed at how rapidly it happened. It was not

:06:02. > :06:07.obvious it was going down for the first hour and a half. Perhaps they

:06:08. > :06:12.thought it had stabilised and was going to be a safe refuge. They must

:06:13. > :06:18.have realised that water was flooding into various openings high

:06:19. > :06:21.up in the structure. This leaves a series of unanswered questions which

:06:22. > :06:26.will be raised by investigators and by the families of those who died.

:06:27. > :06:30.First, why was the evacuation so slow? Passengers were ordered to

:06:31. > :06:36.stay in place for an hour probably to avoid making the listing of the

:06:37. > :06:43.ship any worse but that left too little time. Presumably the crew did

:06:44. > :06:46.not realise how serious things were or how quickly the ship would

:06:47. > :06:53.think. Finally, why did the captain leave when he did? It is traditional

:06:54. > :06:58.for the captain to help others and be the last abandon ship. As the

:06:59. > :07:01.search for survivors continues, officials have said they will mess

:07:02. > :07:05.to get everything from whether the crew were negligent to whether there

:07:06. > :07:09.was a fault with the ship itself. At a time when safety standards at sea

:07:10. > :07:13.are generally rising, there will be interest around the world in working

:07:14. > :07:16.out exactly what went wrong. High-level talks in Geneva aimed at

:07:17. > :07:18.ending the crisis in Ukraine have ended with a call for all illegal

:07:19. > :07:31.armed groups -- ended in what looks to be a

:07:32. > :07:34.breakthrough. Skirmishes continued throughout the region as the

:07:35. > :07:44.Ukrainian government tried to wrest back control of the area. Daniel

:07:45. > :07:46.Sandford reports from Donetsk. Pro-Russian separatists attacked

:07:47. > :07:51.Ukrainian military base with petrol bombs and rammed the gate with a

:07:52. > :07:56.track. Troops inside the only fired warning shots in the air. Whatever

:07:57. > :08:04.the truth is, several people were shot. This hospital filled up with

:08:05. > :08:07.the injured. Doctors say three people died. The first confirmed

:08:08. > :08:15.deaths of pro-Russian protesters in this 10-day uprising.

:08:16. > :08:19.TRANSLATION: They all came with gunshot wounds. One person who was

:08:20. > :08:24.brought to this hospital died. They had been shot in the chest.

:08:25. > :08:28.Yesterday, Ukrainian soldiers further north played cat and mouse

:08:29. > :08:32.game with protesters. This woman managed to stop three armoured

:08:33. > :08:36.personnel carriers in their tracks as they tried to make their way to

:08:37. > :08:42.secure the local airfield. Today, things are much quieter. We found

:08:43. > :08:48.that some armoured vehicles had broken through to the airfield

:08:49. > :08:54.overnight - a minor success for the Government in Kiev. Here in the most

:08:55. > :09:00.restless district, Ukrainian army do at least now have a foothold, if

:09:01. > :09:05.only in the military airbase. What the troops do next in such hostile

:09:06. > :09:08.territory is unclear. At the barricade at the entrance to the

:09:09. > :09:11.base, they managed to speak to one of the soldiers who have got

:09:12. > :09:18.through. TRANSLATION: Protesters tried to

:09:19. > :09:23.block us and persuade us to switch sides. Tonight, the Ukrainian

:09:24. > :09:27.national anthem was being sung by supporters of the Kiev government at

:09:28. > :09:33.a demonstration in the very heart of rebel territory, the regional

:09:34. > :09:39.capital. It was a reminder that administered the death and drama, it

:09:40. > :09:47.was not a simple conflict. That is something diplomats will need to

:09:48. > :09:50.bear in mind. At the end of high-level talks in Geneva, the

:09:51. > :09:55.Russian Foreign Minister said the US, the EU, Russia and Ukraine had

:09:56. > :10:01.all agreed illegal armed groups in the east of the country should be

:10:02. > :10:04.disarmed, occupied building should be handed back. Our diplomatic

:10:05. > :10:11.correspondent is here. This does sound, at last, like progress. We

:10:12. > :10:16.have now heard from the US Secretary of State and the EU foreign policy

:10:17. > :10:19.chief and they have endorsed this. All sides have agreed to take

:10:20. > :10:24.initial steps to de-escalate the tension. It means armed groups

:10:25. > :10:29.giving up weapons, buildings being vacated, and everything supposedly

:10:30. > :10:34.going back to normal. The caveat, which was from the US Secretary of

:10:35. > :10:43.State, they expect to see these steps start in the next few days

:10:44. > :10:46.and, if they do not, the US stands ready to impose more sanctions and

:10:47. > :10:49.they will realise it is not working. You have the sense from all sides

:10:50. > :10:56.that you think they have perhaps turned a corner. The document from

:10:57. > :11:02.representatives in eastern Ukraine was brought about what they wanted.

:11:03. > :11:06.The US Secretary of State said the Ukrainian government had said they

:11:07. > :11:10.were ready for decentralisation and giving a lot of powers to the

:11:11. > :11:14.regions. That is what we have been hearing from the Russian speakers,

:11:15. > :11:21.including the right to elect their own officials and look after their

:11:22. > :11:25.own affairs. But foreign affairs, justice and Central Powers would

:11:26. > :11:29.remain with the central government. It all sounds quite positive. It has

:11:30. > :11:37.to be seen what happens on the ground. Mr Kerry said it is up to

:11:38. > :11:40.Russia. We will have to see whether things change in the next few days.

:11:41. > :11:43.That will be the test. Prosecutors in New York have begun outlining

:11:44. > :11:48.their case against the radical Muslim cleric Abu Hamza. The

:11:49. > :11:50.Egyptian-born preacher, denies 11 charges relating to terrorism,

:11:51. > :11:54.including providing support to al-Qaeda and trying to set up an

:11:55. > :12:06.al-Qaeda training camp. He was extradited from Britain in 2012. The

:12:07. > :12:09.boss of the Co-op group says they've had their 'most disastrous year in

:12:10. > :12:12.the group's 150 year history' - after announcing annual losses of

:12:13. > :12:14.two and a half billion pounds. He's blaming fundamental failings in

:12:15. > :12:23.management and governance and says the company needs to change course.

:12:24. > :12:29.Our business editor has more. Co-op is a huge British business that has

:12:30. > :12:33.fallen on the hardest of times. Today's colossal losses show the

:12:34. > :12:39.huge challenges the organisation faces. The chief executive says it

:12:40. > :12:42.must reform if it is to prosper. Al Ain the 21st century, this

:12:43. > :12:51.organisation has a place and has a future. It has to be different from

:12:52. > :12:57.previous history. What is a threat to jobs? I cannot guarantee there

:12:58. > :13:02.will be no job losses. We have to make cuts in our cost base. What I

:13:03. > :13:09.can say to colleagues is we will go to job cuts last. He has only been

:13:10. > :13:14.chief executive for a month and he inherited a mess which will take

:13:15. > :13:19.many years to fix. This is the problem. The collapse of the bank

:13:20. > :13:24.left it with a ?2.1 billion bill. Today, it announced a loss on its

:13:25. > :13:29.takeover of the Somerfield supermarkets chain of ?277 million.

:13:30. > :13:34.What about the businesses it is still running, the supermarkets,

:13:35. > :13:46.funerals and pharmacies. Well, profits are down. Co-op insists that

:13:47. > :13:48.many parts of the business are still valuable but ministers have raised

:13:49. > :13:50.concerns about the future. Disastrous financial results. Very

:13:51. > :13:56.worrying for those of us. I think there are many in Britain who want

:13:57. > :13:59.to see Co-op succeed. We need to have strong mutuals along side other

:14:00. > :14:04.kinds of companies. Terrible mistakes have been made. It is a

:14:05. > :14:08.question of governance, though, the gated way the Co-op is run will be

:14:09. > :14:17.voted on next month. Senior figures says change does not mean losing the

:14:18. > :14:22.organisation 's soul. There is a general agreement that there is a

:14:23. > :14:28.need for change in the group 's governance. That is still ongoing.

:14:29. > :14:32.Some of the things Lord Meyers has said recently suggests there is more

:14:33. > :14:37.agreement and perhaps disagreement about some of these things. I am

:14:38. > :14:41.sure, as we move forward, people will be able to perhaps step back

:14:42. > :14:46.from some other positions that have been taken and take a calm,

:14:47. > :14:51.reflective view of it. There are many hurdles ahead. In two weeks,

:14:52. > :14:58.Sir Christopher Kelly 's review of how the Co-op fell apart is likely

:14:59. > :15:00.to say the governance of organisation was shockingly poor.

:15:01. > :15:07.It'll be the latest blow to an already struggling business. Our top

:15:08. > :15:12.story: No more survivors have been found from the ferry that sank off

:15:13. > :15:18.the coast of South Korea. Nearly 300 are still missing. Still to come...

:15:52. > :15:54.speaker John Bercow has said several seasoned female MPs have told him

:15:55. > :15:58.that the weekly Prime Ministers questions is so rowdy they no longer

:15:59. > :16:04.take part. It will add to concern women are being put off going into

:16:05. > :16:08.politics as what some see as chauvinistic attitudes in the Palace

:16:09. > :16:13.of Westminster. There are 147 female MPs out of 650 and three women in

:16:14. > :16:18.the Cabinet out of 22. Our political correspondent has been speaking to

:16:19. > :16:27.Mr Bercow. Order. Unruly. Nosey. Even rude. The

:16:28. > :16:33.Prime Minister will withdraw the word idiot. Not even his bellow with

:16:34. > :16:37.keep a lid on thing, it is an atmosphere that angers the Speaker,

:16:38. > :16:43.in a rare interview he told me it puts off some MP, and in particular

:16:44. > :16:48.women from turning up. What in a sense has reinforced my concern is a

:16:49. > :16:53.number of seasoned Parliamentarians who are not shrinking violet, who

:16:54. > :16:57.are not delicate creatures at all, are saying this is so bad that I am

:16:58. > :17:02.not going to take part, I am not going to come along, I feel

:17:03. > :17:10.embarrassed by it. Recruited women into Parliament isn't a new problem.

:17:32. > :17:34.Speaker is on to something PMQs, the first time I went it was

:17:35. > :17:38.overwhelming, because you can't hear anything, I thought it would be an

:17:39. > :17:41.opportunity to ask pertinent questions, not an opportunity to

:17:42. > :17:45.scream and shout. I am one of those people, unless there is a particular

:17:46. > :17:50.issue I avoid it. Next stop, Goodison Park, the home of Everton

:17:51. > :17:53.football club. The Speke ears goal is to change the tone of Prime

:17:54. > :17:58.Minister's Questions and the perception of politics round the

:17:59. > :18:02.country. Most people think it doesn't reflect very well on

:18:03. > :18:06.Parliament, when there is a huge decibel level, and a Punch and Judy

:18:07. > :18:11.show or a shouting match. It is not just encouraging more women into

:18:12. > :18:15.politics that motivates Mr Burr co-he wants people from a wider

:18:16. > :18:19.range of backgrounds. Please don't think politics is only for posh

:18:20. > :18:23.people. At a local school teenage brains are switched on by gaming,

:18:24. > :18:31.but the Speaker knows plenty of young people are switched off by

:18:32. > :18:36.politics. It is the mouse. On here. What an embarrassment. Not even

:18:37. > :18:44.agrees with his views on Prime Minister's question, but if he is to

:18:45. > :18:47.change it he can't can do it alone. Let's have a look at some of the

:18:48. > :18:50.other stories making the news today. A lorry driver has been arrested

:18:51. > :18:54.following a five-vehicle pile up on the M26 in Kent in which two people

:18:55. > :18:57.died and seven others were injured. The two who died are a woman, aged

:18:58. > :18:59.22, and a 16-year-old girl. Both were French.

:19:00. > :19:02.The Green Party MP, Caroline Lucas, has been found not guilty of a

:19:03. > :19:05.public order offence, and of obstructing a public highway, during

:19:06. > :19:08.an anti-fracking protest at Balcombe in West Sussex last August. Speaking

:19:09. > :19:17.after the verdict, Ms Lucas said she would continue to campaign against

:19:18. > :19:21.fracking. Right honourable Scotland says a law firm has cleared it over

:19:22. > :19:25.allegations it forced small firms to close so it could make a profit. The

:19:26. > :19:30.bank commissioned the review after a report suggested it made small firms

:19:31. > :19:32.undergo restructuring unnecessarily. The Financial Services Authority is

:19:33. > :19:38.conducting its own investigation into the allegations.

:19:39. > :19:41.Investigations are continuing into a massive power cut that affected 10%

:19:42. > :19:43.of the Scottish population yesterday evening. The electricity network

:19:44. > :19:46.suffered a major technical fault, affecting hundreds of thousands of

:19:47. > :19:50.people. Our Scotland Correspondent Lorna Gordon is in Inverness. Lorna,

:19:51. > :19:59.still a bit of a mystery as to why this happened? Yes, it is. Still no

:20:00. > :20:04.answers as to what went on last night, but make who mistake this was

:20:05. > :20:09.a massive power cut from the Outer Hebrides and Fort William to

:20:10. > :20:17.Inverness and everything beyond, as far north as Orkney and as far south

:20:18. > :20:22.as Pitlochrie. The TVs wept off. Photograph fing lights went down. No

:20:23. > :20:25.hospitals were affected. Power was restored within three hours, to

:20:26. > :20:30.everyone, but it is a big question as to what happened. They have been

:20:31. > :20:35.examining a small stretch of power transmission lines today, looking

:20:36. > :20:39.into whether it was caused by a lightning strike, birds little --

:20:40. > :20:42.hitting the lines or branches falling on the transmission cables.

:20:43. > :20:47.They still don't know. But it is a very big question, as to why a power

:20:48. > :20:52.outage on a small stretch of line could affect such a large part of

:20:53. > :20:57.the population. The operator say it is an incredibly rare situation.

:20:58. > :21:04.They will hope it doesn't happen again.

:21:05. > :21:06.On the second day of their Australia tour, the Duke and Duchess of

:21:07. > :21:09.Cambridge have visited the Blue Mountains, an hour's drive from

:21:10. > :21:12.Sydney. They met survivors of last October's bush fires, which were the

:21:13. > :21:15.worst in New South Wales for a decade. And William gave his hosts

:21:16. > :21:19.an anxious moment when he stepped right up to the edge of a cliff with

:21:20. > :21:20.a hundred metre drop.Our royal correspondent Nicholas Witchell

:21:21. > :21:24.reports from Australia. To be a successful Royal, you must

:21:25. > :21:27.be a good listener. People want to tell you their stories. On their

:21:28. > :21:31.first full day in Australia, William and Catherine went to the town of

:21:32. > :21:34.Winmalee in the Blue Mountains of Western Sydney. Last October it was

:21:35. > :21:40.severely damaged by some of the worst bush fires in recent years.

:21:41. > :21:44.Nearly 200 homes were destroyed. William and Catherine talked to some

:21:45. > :21:51.of the people who had lost their homes, their presence was

:21:52. > :21:54.appreciated. For them to come out all this way to say hello,

:21:55. > :22:06.especially to my children and to us, and say, I am sorry this happened to

:22:07. > :22:10.you, it means an awful lot. They were lovely and warp. I got a kiss

:22:11. > :22:18.from Kate. They are going to come to my house for tea. They met some of

:22:19. > :22:25.the firefighters and heard their stories.

:22:53. > :22:58.people watching them watching the view. Everyone wants their own

:22:59. > :23:03.photo. These days, the jackpot is a selfie with one of them. There were

:23:04. > :23:07.not so many of those today but, for some, a long and patient wait was

:23:08. > :23:11.awarded with a brief chat. A moment when it's best not to come over all

:23:12. > :23:14.bashful but to keep your head. Talking of which, here's a Prince

:23:15. > :23:25.peering over a cliff. Just as well he kept his.

:23:26. > :23:28.Cardiff City's lawyers have asked the Premier League to declare their

:23:29. > :23:31.3-0 defeat to Crystal Palace earlier this month null and void. The club,

:23:32. > :23:34.which is facing a relegation battle, says Palace had been passed the

:23:35. > :23:37.details of their starting line-up at least 24 hours before the game, in

:23:38. > :23:50.breach of Premier League rules. Our Sports Editor David Bond has more.

:23:51. > :23:54.Crystal Palace get the points. It is a huge victory for Tony Pulis's

:23:55. > :24:00.side. It was a crucial win in the fierce battle to avoid relegation,

:24:01. > :24:05.but now Cardiff say Crystal Palace's 3-0 victory should not be allowed to

:24:06. > :24:11.stand. They allege officials at Palace were leaked Cardiff's team by

:24:12. > :24:18.a spy signed their dressing room. Nay say the Palace manager was aware

:24:19. > :24:20.of attempts by his staff to obtain confidential details about Ole

:24:21. > :24:25.Gunnar Solskjaer Cardiff line up. They allege that this man, the

:24:26. > :24:30.Palace supporter director obtained the information at least 24 hours

:24:31. > :24:36.before the match. A bizarre twist Cardiff say Moody

:24:37. > :24:40.texted the team to a manager at another club, at Bolton, who tipped

:24:41. > :24:43.off Cardiff. Last week, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said

:24:44. > :24:48.she was confident the league didn't come -- leak didn't come from any of

:24:49. > :24:54.his players. I just said and answered, I have no reason to doubt

:24:55. > :24:57.any players, profession Malty, integrity or loyalty. There was no

:24:58. > :25:01.comment from officials here at Crystal Palace today, but the

:25:02. > :25:05.details of the allegations contained in this five page letter show how

:25:06. > :25:09.seriously Cardiff are taking the matter. They believe this is not

:25:10. > :25:14.just a break down in trust, and good faith between the two club, but that

:25:15. > :25:19.by leaking the team so far in advance, they believe Crystal Palace

:25:20. > :25:24.got an unfair sporting advantage. Howard with a vital touch. With

:25:25. > :25:28.Crystal Palace edging closer to safety with a win over Everton last

:25:29. > :25:33.night, Cardiff hope the inquiry might throw them a lifeline in their

:25:34. > :25:37.own hopes to avoid the drop. Another manager involveded in the battle to

:25:38. > :25:42.stay up says this sort of spying is part and parcel of the game. --

:25:43. > :25:51.involved. You try to get any information you

:25:52. > :25:55.can get. I try also so get any information from Tottenham, and on

:25:56. > :25:59.Saturday, and so, yeah. Despite that, the Premier League say they

:26:00. > :26:04.are treating the matter seriously. While it may be hard to prove,

:26:05. > :26:09.knowing the team in advance gave Palace the edge, it does nothing for

:26:10. > :26:10.the image of the competition, if it is proved clubs are leaking their

:26:11. > :26:19.secrets. Time for a look at the Easter r

:26:20. > :26:23.weekend weather. How is it is look something warmer than Easter last

:26:24. > :26:27.year, today, we managed to sneak 19 degrees in the south-east corner,

:26:28. > :26:31.before we saw all this cloud spilling down from the north. We

:26:32. > :26:34.have some colder air coming down behind that cloud, some late

:26:35. > :26:37.sunshine in Scotland and Northern Ireland, further south, the cloud

:26:38. > :26:41.thick enough to give one or two showers but many places will be dry.

:26:42. > :26:44.The cloud leaks away to the south-west. Clear skies following

:26:45. > :26:48.from the north. Light winds, it will be colder than last night. It could

:26:49. > :26:52.be looking at an air frost, mainly in rural parts of Scotland, maybe

:26:53. > :26:56.the far north of England. A chilly start but a dry one, there will be

:26:57. > :27:00.some powerful sunshine I suspect, some warmth in that someone, but

:27:01. > :27:05.then, as we head into Sunday and beyond, things much more unsettled.

:27:06. > :27:07.But, after that cold start on Good Friday there will be lots of

:27:08. > :27:11.sunshine round, the winds will be lighter than they have been today.

:27:12. > :27:15.It should feel pleasant. Fair weather cloud in eastern England.

:27:16. > :27:18.Here it will feel cooler and fresh, this is where we had the highest

:27:19. > :27:21.temperatures today. But probably feeling warmer in other area,

:27:22. > :27:26.particularly Scotland and Northern Ireland. As we head into Saturday,

:27:27. > :27:28.getting more cloud coming in the eastern area, maybe one or two

:27:29. > :27:32.showers but away from the north-west, where we have a spot of

:27:33. > :27:36.two of rain, most places will be dry and enjoying the sunshine. So far so

:27:37. > :27:39.good then, but as we head into Easter Day itself, this circulation,

:27:40. > :27:44.this area of low pressure is heading our way from the near continent. It

:27:45. > :27:48.will bring strong winds, rain, how far west it gets is in doubt but it

:27:49. > :27:52.looks wet in the south-east. There could be an inch of rain. At this

:27:53. > :27:55.stage it looks dry for Scotland and Northern Ireland, with some

:27:56. > :27:58.sunshine. We may keep the sunshine in western cot land and Northern

:27:59. > :28:01.Ireland on Easter Monday, the low pressure tending to spin away,

:28:02. > :28:05.taking the worst of the rain with it, brighter spells but showers in

:28:06. > :28:08.many places for Easter Monday, temperatures in the south-east

:28:09. > :28:12.beginning to recover. Thank you.

:28:13. > :28:16.A reminder of the main stories tonight. No more survivors have been

:28:17. > :28:19.found from the ferry that is an off the coast of South Korea. Nearly 300

:28:20. > :28:24.are missing. And there has been a diplomatic

:28:25. > :28:28.breakthrough at international talks in Geneva aimed at ending the crisis

:28:29. > :28:31.in Ukraine. That is all from the BBC News at six. It is goodbye from me

:28:32. > :28:32.and on BBC One we
