:01:19. > :01:21.ahead to the final weekend in the Six

:01:22. > :01:34.Nations Championship. Good evening and welcome

:01:35. > :01:37.to the BBC News at Six. Europe's most wanted man,

:01:38. > :01:40.a suspected fugitive from the Paris terror attacks, has been

:01:41. > :01:41.captured after a shoot-out 26-year-old Salah Abdeslam has been

:01:42. > :01:47.on the run since the shootings in Paris in November,

:01:48. > :01:50.which left 130 people dead. He evaded police earlier this week,

:01:51. > :01:53.just his fingerprints in a Brussels apartment showed that

:01:54. > :02:03.he had been there. Tonight, the police got

:02:04. > :02:04.their suspect, who is believed to have played a key

:02:05. > :02:07.role in the attacks. Let's go live to Damian

:02:08. > :02:14.Grammaticas in Molenbeek, As I mince is rehearsing to the

:02:15. > :02:20.scene, police sources in Brussels were already saying they had got

:02:21. > :02:24.their man. Salah Abdeslam, the prime suspect in the Paris attacks,

:02:25. > :02:29.sources said, shot in the league and in custody. Filmed by an eyewitness,

:02:30. > :02:35.police massing as they hunted him. Mid-afternoon in the Molenbeek

:02:36. > :02:40.district, dozens of units descended. There was gunfire. One witness said

:02:41. > :02:45.he saw a man being chased down the road, shot and then falling. For

:02:46. > :02:49.Belgian police this seems to have been a considerable success, Salah

:02:50. > :02:55.Abdeslam, the prime suspect from the Paris attacks, wounded in the league

:02:56. > :02:57.and then arrested at the top of the street, following those police

:02:58. > :03:01.investigations that have been going on since the Paris attacks which

:03:02. > :03:05.have traced him to this location. The Belgian Prime Minister rushed

:03:06. > :03:09.out of the summit of European leaders taking place across time to

:03:10. > :03:13.be briefed on the operation. He and his French counterpart were

:03:14. > :03:18.following events closely. Salah Abdeslam had managed to evade police

:03:19. > :03:23.as November, prosecutors say he was a key player in the Paris attacks.

:03:24. > :03:27.Earlier this week his fingerprints are fined after police raided this

:03:28. > :03:30.house in Brussels. It is thought he might have escaped out of the back

:03:31. > :03:34.window as another man fired officers to keep them pinned down. Police

:03:35. > :03:37.were clearly on the Trail of Salah Abdeslam and closing in, and

:03:38. > :03:44.neighbours had no idea he was in the house. I opened my door. To pick up

:03:45. > :03:55.my son at school. And I heard a lot of policemen yelling at me. Go home!

:03:56. > :04:00.And actually, then, the shooting had just happened, the first one. And

:04:01. > :04:06.the operation was happening just in front of me. I really did not

:04:07. > :04:10.realise that. Salah Abdeslam has been taken for treatment for his

:04:11. > :04:13.wounds but police sources said no officers were injured in the

:04:14. > :04:18.operation today. After months of painstaking work, this was a success

:04:19. > :04:22.for Belgian and French police and has raised tensions in Molenbeek

:04:23. > :04:26.this evening, riot police brought in to do with groups draw on by the

:04:27. > :04:34.presence of summoning officers on the streets here. On this side of

:04:35. > :04:38.the cord and, things are,, there is a police car coming through here but

:04:39. > :04:44.what is extraordinary is that the capture of Salah Abdeslam alive will

:04:45. > :04:47.be a major step forward for the investigations following the Paris

:04:48. > :04:51.attacks. At the top of the street there are reports there might be one

:04:52. > :04:54.man still holed up inside the building but for Belgian police,

:04:55. > :04:59.there have been claims that Salah Abdeslam might even have fled to

:05:00. > :05:04.Syria, this is extraordinary, they have tracked him for months,

:05:05. > :05:05.following his associates, 100 house searches, leading to the events here

:05:06. > :05:09.and his arrest this evening. Damian Grammaticas in Molenbeek,

:05:10. > :05:13.thank you. Well, let's speak to our

:05:14. > :05:14.Security Correspondent, Very significant that this suspect

:05:15. > :05:23.has been captured alive. This is very significant because

:05:24. > :05:27.Salah Abdeslam was Europe's most wanted, he was the one person

:05:28. > :05:31.directly involved in those attacks on Paris who was still on the run.

:05:32. > :05:36.He was directly involved in planning the logistics, he had driven around

:05:37. > :05:39.some of the attackers that night and it is thought he might have been

:05:40. > :05:44.intending to carry out an attack but had backed out at the last minute

:05:45. > :05:47.and then this extraordinary story of fleeing across the border into

:05:48. > :05:52.Belgium, stopped by police at one point and this manhunt which does

:05:53. > :05:55.raise questions for the Belgian authorities as to why it took so

:05:56. > :06:01.long to find him, especially if in all that time he was in Belgium. But

:06:02. > :06:06.yes, he was caught alive, that gives the possibility that he can be

:06:07. > :06:09.interrogated and if you decide to talk, he can provide a wealth of

:06:10. > :06:12.information about the attacks and the network and the planning and

:06:13. > :06:17.about who helped him afterwards to stay on the run. That could be

:06:18. > :06:20.hugely important not just in understanding what happened in the

:06:21. > :06:21.past in Paris, but also in preventing future attacks. Gordon,

:06:22. > :06:24.thank you. European leaders have agreed a deal

:06:25. > :06:26.with Turkey aimed at stopping the flow of migrants

:06:27. > :06:28.across the Aegean Sea It means that from midnight

:06:29. > :06:32.on Sunday, all migrants who reach Greece would be sent back to Turkey

:06:33. > :06:35.if their asylum claim is rejected. In return, thousands of Syrian

:06:36. > :06:38.refugees already in Turkey would be Our Europe Editor,

:06:39. > :06:46.Katya Adler, has the latest. The EU is in a hurry

:06:47. > :06:50.to solve the migrant crisis. By now affecting each

:06:51. > :06:58.one of its 28 leaders. Here comes the man they hope can

:06:59. > :07:01.solve their problems, right here, right now,

:07:02. > :07:03.with today's deal. The Turkish Prime Minister,

:07:04. > :07:06.representing his powerful, unpredictable president,

:07:07. > :07:10.here in Brussels today. Today, we have finally

:07:11. > :07:12.reached an agreement The agreement aimed

:07:13. > :07:19.at stopping the flow of irregular migration

:07:20. > :07:23.via Turkey through Europe. Sounds sensible and

:07:24. > :07:25.straightforward, but in reality, Most migrant boats leave

:07:26. > :07:36.from their beaches. The EU is spending a lot of money,

:07:37. > :07:40.time and credibility, trying to get Turkey's commitment

:07:41. > :07:43.to crack down on people smugglers and to send back

:07:44. > :07:45.migrants using their Commitment now achieved,

:07:46. > :07:50.it would seem. There is no Turkish future

:07:51. > :07:53.without the EU and there is no EU future without Turkey

:07:54. > :07:58.so there is a need for cooperation. But in deals like these,

:07:59. > :08:00.some partners are more The migrant crisis

:08:01. > :08:07.has divided Europe, frightened its people,

:08:08. > :08:09.emboldened populist politicians who pose a challenge

:08:10. > :08:13.to the leaders now in Brussels. In desperation, they are

:08:14. > :08:20.agreeing to Turkey's steep conditions, with all the ifs,

:08:21. > :08:23.buts and maybes typical But whatever the wording,

:08:24. > :08:27.the deal will have deep underlying Is it legal for the EU

:08:28. > :08:32.to throw refugees and asylum No, under international

:08:33. > :08:37.and European law. Each individual case

:08:38. > :08:41.needs to be heard first, or Turkey needs to be declared

:08:42. > :08:44.a so-called safe country for these How do you get tens of thousands

:08:45. > :08:52.of people back to Turkey, by plane, by sea, and who is

:08:53. > :08:56.going to pay for it? And the women, children,

:08:57. > :09:02.the elderly as well as the young men, all of whom have

:09:03. > :09:04.risked their lives, all of whom are desperate,

:09:05. > :09:06.will they go quietly? Can Europe, should Europe

:09:07. > :09:09.stomach the scenes? So as you see, there

:09:10. > :09:13.are moral issues too. Turkey's president is

:09:14. > :09:17.increasingly autocratic, argument undemocratic,

:09:18. > :09:26.and Turkey doesn't fully recognise the Geneva Convemtion on human

:09:27. > :09:29.rights, so should the EU be doing a deal with Turkey, offering it

:09:30. > :09:31.sweeteners and sending vulnerable EU lawyers and diplomats

:09:32. > :09:34.are now performing contortions to try to get

:09:35. > :09:36.around these issues. This migrant boat was intercepted

:09:37. > :09:41.by Britain's HMS Enterprise, helping stop mass

:09:42. > :09:42.people smuggling to Turkey deal or not,

:09:43. > :09:45.the EU migrant crisis Europe is facing its biggest refugee

:09:46. > :09:56.crisis since the Second World War. Turkish coastguards claim

:09:57. > :09:59.they intercepted 3,000 people trying to reach the Greek island

:10:00. > :10:02.of Lesbos only today. Over the last year, just over

:10:03. > :10:05.a million migrants have entered the EU illegally by boat,

:10:06. > :10:08.mainly making the crossing The majority of them are Syrian,

:10:09. > :10:15.fleeing the country's civil war. But 2.7 million Syrian

:10:16. > :10:17.refugees remain in Turkey, from where our correspondent,

:10:18. > :10:33.Daniel Boettcher, reports. Funeral prayers for those whose

:10:34. > :10:39.lives ended far from their homes. Syrian refugees who like so many

:10:40. > :10:45.others saw their future in Europe. Now the graves are marked by numbers

:10:46. > :10:48.because no one knows their names. This woman and her mother are still

:10:49. > :10:53.planning to cross from Turkey to Greece. No deal. Them. This picture

:10:54. > :10:56.shows and preparing for their last attempt, he was pregnant and they

:10:57. > :11:01.were among only ten survivors when the boat sank. TRANSLATION: Children

:11:02. > :11:06.were screaming, we do not want to die. Why is this happening to us?

:11:07. > :11:11.One-woman saw her daughter die in front of her eyes. You nearly died

:11:12. > :11:16.last summer? Most of the people drowned, why take that risk again

:11:17. > :11:20.when you will be sent back? TRANSLATION: I have no father or

:11:21. > :11:27.brother is, that is why I will try, even if I will lose my life. This is

:11:28. > :11:31.a part of a smear on migrants plan the crossing. This deal is meant to

:11:32. > :11:36.stem the flow but many feel trapped with no money. And no prospects.

:11:37. > :11:40.People smugglers have been profiting from their desperation. This

:11:41. > :11:44.agreement is meant to disrupt their work. The scale of which is clear in

:11:45. > :11:48.places like this, North of this mirror. All-around there is evidence

:11:49. > :11:53.of how many people passed through here and why they came. On the

:11:54. > :11:58.ground, slimming aids like armbands and pieces of life jacket, food

:11:59. > :12:02.wrappers, water bottles, clothes and shoes and at the end of this part, a

:12:03. > :12:06.beach and a glimpse of Europe. The Greek island of Lesbos is a short

:12:07. > :12:15.distance of there. And that is why so many are risking their lives to

:12:16. > :12:19.make this crossing. Engines stop! Increased Coastguard patrols have

:12:20. > :12:22.brought the numbers down. Today, 1700 were stopped in one district.

:12:23. > :12:28.Turkey feels it has been doing more than its fair share in this crisis.

:12:29. > :12:33.But the Mayor of one of the time is closest to the Greek islands blames

:12:34. > :12:37.both sides in equal measure. TRANSLATION: The EU just wants to

:12:38. > :12:42.defend itself by sending migrants back to us, it is a tragedy that

:12:43. > :12:48.Turkey and EU are with people's lives. Just if you miles of water.

:12:49. > :12:50.This group will now be closed if migrants believe it is a chance no

:12:51. > :12:53.longer worth taking. -- route. Let's return to Brussels and speak

:12:54. > :13:07.to our Europe Editor, There have been deals before and

:13:08. > :13:13.they have fallen, will this one work? As we know from EU deals,

:13:14. > :13:17.agreement is one thing but honouring those agreements is quite something

:13:18. > :13:21.else. Trust between the EU and Turkey is not strong. Even if it

:13:22. > :13:25.does work out, this will not be the end to the migrant crisis. We heard

:13:26. > :13:32.this evening run the host of the summit, the Council President, that

:13:33. > :13:37.the deal is not a silver bullet and what about struggling Greece? Left

:13:38. > :13:41.to struggle with tens of thousands of migrants who arrived before the

:13:42. > :13:46.steel? Other EU countries do not seem ready to take their fair share

:13:47. > :13:51.of those migrants and not keen to take in Syrian refugees directly

:13:52. > :13:56.from Turkey, as it mans. Another issue I mentioned, other ways into

:13:57. > :13:59.Europe, such as Libya, but logorrhoea and the Albanian

:14:00. > :14:04.mountains, desperate people trying desperately, more so now that the

:14:05. > :14:08.seas are, whispering. There was no mention tonight of those, located,

:14:09. > :14:10.of plan be, but Turkey needs one. Thank you.

:14:11. > :14:13.As pressure mounts on the Chancellor about his planned disability benefit

:14:14. > :14:15.cuts, the Government says it will consult with charities to make

:14:16. > :14:17.sure the most vulnerable are protected.

:14:18. > :14:20.Nonetheless, it says it's committed to making the controversial

:14:21. > :14:26.A number of Tory MPs, Labour and disability groups oppose

:14:27. > :14:28.the changes to what are known as Personal Independence

:14:29. > :14:36.Here's our Political Correspondent, Alex Forsyth.

:14:37. > :14:45.Has a whole? Some of his own MPs are starting to think so. Costa

:14:46. > :14:49.disability benefits have angered more than just campaigners. Today,

:14:50. > :14:53.the Chancellor said they were needed and the most vulnerable would be

:14:54. > :14:57.protected. But he suggested the exact proposal had not been Dale

:14:58. > :15:03.Steyn. The disability budget is going up, we have to make sure that

:15:04. > :15:07.it goes to those who need help most. Over the coming months we will be

:15:08. > :15:12.talking to colleagues, to disability charities, to make sure we get this

:15:13. > :15:14.absolutely right. The plan to change confirmed in the budget is to

:15:15. > :15:19.Personal Independence Payment 's, designed to help people with ongoing

:15:20. > :15:23.costs associated with disability. The criteria for assessing peoples

:15:24. > :15:29.ability carry out daily tasks is being tightened. Saving the Treasury

:15:30. > :15:33.?1.3 billion a year. The most severely disabled will not be

:15:34. > :15:40.affected at around 370,000 people could lose out. Under this change,

:15:41. > :15:44.if you need a raised toilet because you are so disabled you cannot sit

:15:45. > :15:48.on a normal one, you will lose money. The government has been

:15:49. > :15:53.criticised in the past for its efforts to curb welfare spending. It

:15:54. > :15:58.had to row back on cuts to tax credits. Now, Labour is determined

:15:59. > :16:01.to force another U-turn, despite ministers saying they are committed

:16:02. > :16:06.to the reforms. It is interesting that the government language has

:16:07. > :16:10.changed from will do too now saying they are consulting and we will

:16:11. > :16:13.force a vote on this, we are launching a petition against this.

:16:14. > :16:18.The government says legislation on these changes is to months off but I

:16:19. > :16:21.agree with these proposals or not, the problem for some Tory MPs is the

:16:22. > :16:26.way they were presented. Cutting disability benefits in the same

:16:27. > :16:29.budget as tax for middle earners was reduced. One minister questioned

:16:30. > :16:35.whether George Osborne was losing his touch. And from the government

:16:36. > :16:38.backbenchers, a growing number are willing to speak out. The vast

:16:39. > :16:44.majority of people as I understand it will not see their attempt to

:16:45. > :16:49.payments affected by this. But there is clearly a challenge in how this

:16:50. > :16:54.message has been got across. Where is the sunshine? It is looking

:16:55. > :16:57.gloomy two days on from the budget, disappointing for the Chancellor

:16:58. > :16:58.used to praise from colleagues for his competence. Now facing

:16:59. > :17:02.discontent. Europe's most wanted fugitive

:17:03. > :17:09.for the terror attacks in Paris is captured after a raid

:17:10. > :17:11.on a flat in Brussels. And whether you're on the sofa

:17:12. > :17:20.or in the saddle, make sure you're geared up for this

:17:46. > :17:48.Following the tax imposed by the chancellor on sugary drinks

:17:49. > :17:51.this week, there have been calls to reduce the high amount of sugar

:17:52. > :17:55.And not just cakes and biscuits - but also low fat yoghurts,

:17:56. > :18:01.Here's our special correspondent Lucy Manning.

:18:02. > :18:07.Emma Batton does her weekly shop in Cambridge, a healthy one,

:18:08. > :18:09.she thinks, but the food industry and supermarkets don't

:18:10. > :18:24.always make it easy in the fight against obesity, as she discovers.

:18:25. > :18:27.Those soups say one in five, one of the daily five as well.

:18:28. > :18:30.Does that make you think that you are

:18:31. > :18:35.Oh, really? That's loads.

:18:36. > :18:37.And 1.1 grams of salt, 20%

:18:38. > :18:41.That's a lot more than I would have guessed.

:18:42. > :18:45.It's the offers that tempt, but after the sugar tax

:18:46. > :18:48.Each portion is 12% of your sugar intake, so 11 grams of sugar

:18:49. > :18:51.We always get swayed by the offers, yeah.

:18:52. > :18:54.Free bowl, free spoon, I think that's a good deal.

:18:55. > :18:56.It would be a shame if the Government work to stop

:18:57. > :19:01.The offers do help us get through the week on a lower budget

:19:02. > :19:05.I think the cereal aisle is definitely a children's aisle.

:19:06. > :19:08.It was naughty that they put the chocolate in the same place.

:19:09. > :19:10.And with marketing that attracts the youngest of customers

:19:11. > :19:13.that is also something that might have to change.

:19:14. > :19:16.She's fairly flat on the sugar tax but thinks

:19:17. > :19:21.companies need to do more across all foods.

:19:22. > :19:24.If it's your product, I think you need to be

:19:25. > :19:28.So they need to be thinking wisely about putting in so much sugar that

:19:29. > :19:36.Watching what's going in the trolley is Cambridge University's

:19:37. > :19:39.England has the highest rates of price

:19:40. > :19:43.It increases what we buy by about 20%.

:19:44. > :19:45.And these promotions are more likely to be

:19:46. > :19:54.So she's fallen right into that trap.

:19:55. > :19:59.Children under three get 27% of their added sugar from soft

:20:00. > :20:01.drinks, the rest comes from other sources

:20:02. > :20:05.including cereals, biscuits and sweets.

:20:06. > :20:09.Older children get 30%, so 70% from elsewhere.

:20:10. > :20:11.And while teenagers consume more sugar from

:20:12. > :20:15.soft drinks, most still comes from other places.

:20:16. > :20:18.There will also be demands on the supermarkets and on the food

:20:19. > :20:21.industry to discourage the type of shopping and eating

:20:22. > :20:36.And after the sugar tax, some big retailers

:20:37. > :20:40.We need to look wider across food, we need

:20:58. > :21:02.production is that pushed the unfortunately we may need mandatory

:21:03. > :21:03.targets. The government say the obesity target will eventually come,

:21:04. > :21:08.with much still to do. A year ago, Olympic cycling champion

:21:09. > :21:11.Victoria Pendleton had Today she exceeded all expectations

:21:12. > :21:14.at one of horse racing's greatest festivals -

:21:15. > :21:16.Cheltenham - crossing the line a respectable fifth in the very

:21:17. > :21:19.challenging amateur race. Our sports correspondent Andy Swiss

:21:20. > :21:33.is in Cheltenham for us now , It was, yes. Victoria Pendleton has

:21:34. > :21:36.had a lot of doubters, some have questioned whether she was good

:21:37. > :21:41.enough to race here, whether she would even be dangerous. There was

:21:42. > :21:49.no fairy tale win but a very respectable fifth silenced those

:21:50. > :21:52.doubters will stop the first bumpy ride of Victoria Pendleton's day,

:21:53. > :22:00.simply getting in the Cheltenham. Are you excited? Can't wait! That

:22:01. > :22:05.slightly nervous laugh said it all. Some book is not she was more likely

:22:06. > :22:10.to fall off, as she set off on Pacha Du Polder with understandable

:22:11. > :22:15.caution. She was in last place as they left the first but as the race

:22:16. > :22:19.wore on, she grew in confidence and pace, surging through the pack to

:22:20. > :22:26.finish a very creditable fifth. The smile and a thumbs up said it all,

:22:27. > :22:29.the doubters silenced in some style. I am thrilled, if it had been

:22:30. > :22:33.another two furlongs could have got in the mix but it happened so

:22:34. > :22:38.quickly, it was almost like my first all over again. I enjoyed every

:22:39. > :22:44.second of it. It was a complete rush. The biggest prize of the day

:22:45. > :22:48.was the Gold cup, home hopes lay with cue card but three out, they

:22:49. > :22:55.came crashing down, both horse and jockey thankfully unhurt. That left

:22:56. > :22:59.the way for favourite Cossack to deliver yet another victory here for

:23:00. > :23:05.Ireland delightful jockey Brian Cooper and trainer, as Cheltenham

:23:06. > :23:06.saluted its heroes, but this was a day not just about the winning but

:23:07. > :23:14.about the taking part. Now will you be enjoying this year's

:23:15. > :23:17.BBC Sport relief from the comfort of your sofa or will you be among

:23:18. > :23:20.the thousands of people donning running shoes or cycling shorts

:23:21. > :23:22.to help raise money? Colin Paterson is at

:23:23. > :23:25.London's Olympic Park, where much of the action is

:23:26. > :23:33.taking place tonight. The Olympic Park was the sight of

:23:34. > :23:37.some of Britain's greatest ever sporting moments, tonight we will

:23:38. > :23:43.see Seppi Raworth in lycra on a bike, that's not the only highlight.

:23:44. > :23:48.You are presenting the show, what are some of the highlights? I am not

:23:49. > :23:52.sure, I was told was sports personality of the above I got and

:23:53. > :23:59.I'm resenting with this fellow. It is predominantly about raising money

:24:00. > :24:02.for needy causes, not just in the UK but around some of the poorest

:24:03. > :24:07.countries in the world the people who really need it, and we will have

:24:08. > :24:14.a lot of fun in the process, has had the Titans, between Sir Steve

:24:15. > :24:18.Redgrave, Freddie Flintoff... This man has managed to get Peter Crouch

:24:19. > :24:24.into a dress! Not for the first time but this is the first time it will

:24:25. > :24:30.be televised. It will be with me, Peter Crouch, Mickey Flannigan,

:24:31. > :24:37.Peter Crouch will become Petra Crouch for one evening only, and we

:24:38. > :24:44.will have the return of Some Mothers Do Have Them. Frank Spencer, doing

:24:45. > :24:53.his own stunts and he does appear on roller skates. Thank you very much.

:24:54. > :25:01.Back to our top story, the capture of the main suspect in the Paris

:25:02. > :25:05.terror attacks. Sala Abdeslam was captured in Brussels. There have

:25:06. > :25:10.been some developments? In the last 15 minutes, we have heard two very

:25:11. > :25:15.large explosions from just up the street here. One following the other

:25:16. > :25:19.very closely. We heard before that there may have been one man still

:25:20. > :25:22.holed up there, police were calling on him to hand himself in, so

:25:23. > :25:29.clearly operations are still going on there. Also suggestions that the

:25:30. > :25:34.house they came here to target was one linked to Salah Abdeslam, to a

:25:35. > :25:37.friend of his. Now he has been captured alive, the key thing would

:25:38. > :25:43.be for investigators to determine his role in the Paris attacks. They

:25:44. > :25:47.believe he played a key role in the logistics, the support, he may have

:25:48. > :25:51.dropped off three of the bombers who attacked the stadium, there was a

:25:52. > :25:55.question, was he meant to be a suicide bomber, did he back out the

:25:56. > :25:59.plan to carry out another attack in another district of Paris, and what

:26:00. > :26:04.role does he have in the organisation? Investigators have

:26:05. > :26:05.many leads to follow up, now they have him in their custody. Thank

:26:06. > :26:22.you. The day-to-day variations have been

:26:23. > :26:25.huge this week. Some places enjoying beautiful sunshine, the Highlands of

:26:26. > :26:32.Scotland, but many other parts of the UK were rather glum and rather

:26:33. > :26:37.cold. It is these cloudy but dry conditions which will dominate

:26:38. > :26:42.through the course of the week. Wales and south-west England, a lot

:26:43. > :26:45.of sunshine today, got to 14 degrees in Wales but elsewhere temperatures

:26:46. > :26:50.were struggling under the cloud, the cloud will continue to drift

:26:51. > :26:55.overnight tonight, northern Scotland holding out with some breaks in the

:26:56. > :26:59.cloud, we could see a touch of frost but for most prices, the cloud will

:27:00. > :27:05.keep temperatures up, the odd spot of drizzle but most places dry. Some

:27:06. > :27:11.sunny spells tomorrow across parts of northern Scotland and overall,

:27:12. > :27:18.not quite as gloomy as today but one area which will be cloudy tomorrow

:27:19. > :27:22.is Wales and south-west England. As a result, temperatures not as high.

:27:23. > :27:27.Today in the Midlands will start at three or four so it's an improvement

:27:28. > :27:32.tomorrow, but predominantly gloomy. Something a bit brighter up north,

:27:33. > :27:38.perhaps a few breaks in the cloud and a hint of sunshine. As we go

:27:39. > :27:42.through Saturday night and into Sunday, a bit more in the way of

:27:43. > :27:46.showers across the far north, elsewhere, the odd spot of drizzle

:27:47. > :27:49.through Saturday night but generally, just try and cloudy and

:27:50. > :27:59.as a result we should be Frost free. On Sunday, eastern Scotland, hint of

:28:00. > :28:00.sunshine here, but the majority, cloudy and dry, bit of sunshine does

:28:01. > :28:11.make the difference. If you want to follow the developing

:28:12. > :28:16.story in that suburb of Brussels where the main suspect, fugitive

:28:17. > :28:20.suspect of the Paris attacks, has been captured and there is still a

:28:21. > :28:23.police operation going on, you can follow that on the BBC News Channel.
