Extra armed police begin patrolling the streets of London | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
after the recent terror attacks in Europe. | :00:08. | :00:12. | |
The first of 600 additional armed police are being deployed | :00:13. | :00:14. | |
in the capital to reassure the public and act as a deterrent. | :00:15. | :00:19. | |
We are seeing people that are determined to attack us. | :00:20. | :00:22. | |
We've got to deal with that seriously, this is a deadly | :00:23. | :00:25. | |
In all more than 1500 extra armed police will eventually be | :00:26. | :00:32. | |
deployed across the UK - it could take up to two | :00:33. | :00:34. | |

And coming up in the sport on BBC News: | :01:05. | :01:07. | |
We'll have the best of the action for you from the opening day | :01:08. | :01:11. | |
of the third test between England and Pakistan at Edgbaston. | :01:12. | :01:32. | |
Good evening and welcome to the BBC News at Six. | :01:33. | :01:35. | |
The first of 600 additional armed police officers have begun | :01:36. | :01:40. | |
patrolling the streets of London in response to the recent terror | :01:41. | :01:51. | |
The Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe said | :01:52. | :01:54. | |
there was no intelligence of an imminent attack, | :01:55. | :01:56. | |
but it would be foolish to ignore what had happened | :01:57. | :01:58. | |
In all more than 1500 additional police marksmen | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
will eventually be deployed across the UK - though it could take | :02:04. | :02:06. | |
Our Home Affairs correspondent June Kelly reports. | :02:07. | :02:09. | |
This is what the front line would look like in the face of an attack. | :02:10. | :02:17. | |
These Scotland Yard marksmen have been trained to confront armed | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
terrorists. They will keep moving forward even if one of their | :02:22. | :02:25. | |
colleagues has been shot. They would be kitted up like this only if the | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
capital was under attack. To get to a scene quickly they travel in pairs | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
on these bikes. We've been looking at the attack methodology of | :02:36. | :02:38. | |
terrorists in mainland Europe in Paris and Brussels and an essential | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
part of our tactic is to respond as fast as possible. These bikes give | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
us the best opportunity along with an array of other tactics we have. | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
From today the first of 600 more armed officers will be patrolling | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
London. The Met police won't say exactly how many. The threat level | :02:55. | :02:59. | |
in the UK remains at severe, which means that an attack is highly | :03:00. | :03:03. | |
likely. It's been like this for two years and hasn't changed. This is a | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
reasonable response. This is not giving every police officer in | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
Britain a gun, not even everybody on the net a gun, this is increasing to | :03:12. | :03:17. | |
some extent, still less than 10% of our whole workforce will have a | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
firearm. This is one of the innovations, vehicle checkpoints | :03:22. | :03:25. | |
with armed officers in support. They will be set up in different places | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
on different days. So these are the sort of measures | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
that will now be seen in place around the capital. The Met hopes | :03:34. | :03:36. | |
that they will reassure rather than alarm the public. I feel more | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
protected with police with guns than just walking with their hands in | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
their pocket, see what I mean? I guess, save and I think it might be | :03:47. | :03:49. | |
a little unsettling because it's something we are not used to seeing. | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
Sad, but that's the world we live in, isn't it? The latest European | :03:54. | :03:58. | |
attack was the murder of a priest in his church in Rouen. He was killed | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
with a knife in what the intelligence agencies term a | :04:02. | :04:06. | |
low-tech attack. It illustrated the terrorist range of tactics and how | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
their targets might not be in the centre of a major city. In all, | :04:11. | :04:16. | |
there will eventually be more than 1500 extra firearms officers in | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
Britain but the bulk of these will be in the big cities and there is | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
concern that smaller forces are being ignored. It could happen | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
anywhere, whether it be at a military base, a small market town | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
or major city. We've got to make sure that as an emergency service | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
the police service has the resilience and resources where it's | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
going to be needed when it happens. I'm not convinced we are there yet. | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
Is being claimed that it could take at least two years to get all the | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
extra officers in place. The lessons learned from other parts of Europe | :04:48. | :04:52. | |
mean a change in police priorities in the UK. Jim Kelly, BBC News. | :04:53. | :04:56. | |
With me now is our home editor Mark Easton. | :04:57. | :04:59. | |
This is the first time we will see this kind of police in this kind of | :05:00. | :05:06. | |
numbers. And it's a risk as we saw in the report. When we see those | :05:07. | :05:10. | |
kind of officers, with helmets, tooled up, armed on our streets, | :05:11. | :05:14. | |
will people feel reassured or alarmed? The dividing line for | :05:15. | :05:18. | |
Scotland Yard to reassure the public they are ready to deal with the kind | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
of terrorist incidents we have seen so tragically in other European | :05:23. | :05:25. | |
cities recently that without frightening people. The terrorist | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
threat level is severe, but hasn't changed in a couple of years. There | :05:30. | :05:34. | |
will be more armed cops, but police in London and beyond, they remain | :05:35. | :05:37. | |
overwhelmingly unarmed and extreme force must be an option. But the | :05:38. | :05:42. | |
principle of what we call police on by consent remains. Officers need to | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
be trusted, they need to be seen as approachable and friendly, that is | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
our way and that is why Scotland Yard is encouraging people, if you | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
see some of these guys, go and say hello, they want the public to greet | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
them. The public want the police to be able to respond to an act of | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
terrorism but don't want the bobby on the beat to look like Robocop. | :06:02. | :06:03. | |
Mark Easton, thank you. Gas and electricity companies | :06:04. | :06:06. | |
are to be forced by the energy regulator to introduce measures | :06:07. | :06:09. | |
to reduce household bills. Ofgem says it includes a cap | :06:10. | :06:11. | |
on pre-payment meters that'll save many customers | :06:12. | :06:13. | |
around ?75 a year. They're also asking for clearer | :06:14. | :06:15. | |
information on bills, a wider range of tariffs and moves | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
to encourage more people Our correspondent | :06:20. | :06:22. | |
Simon Gompertz reports. Two thirds of us are paying too much | :06:23. | :06:25. | |
for gas and electricity and the worst affected are four million | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
people like Jay Winter with a prepayment | :06:30. | :06:31. | |
meter. Meters with less choice | :06:32. | :06:37. | |
of tariffs and higher rates. Ever since I've been on a prepayment | :06:38. | :06:40. | |
meter, costs have soared on gas | :06:41. | :06:43. | |
and electric quite dramatically. I would say in a month, | :06:44. | :06:46. | |
I am topping it up Whereas opposed to a direct debit | :06:47. | :06:50. | |
scheme, you would be To spur competition, | :06:51. | :06:55. | |
limits on the number of There will be a cap | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
on prepayment prices, saving customers ?75 | :06:59. | :07:04. | |
a year, then 10 million people will be put | :07:05. | :07:06. | |
on a database to be sent | :07:07. | :07:08. | |
mailshots from suppliers What we've got to do as an industry | :07:09. | :07:10. | |
is really help people engage in it and I think that is beholden | :07:11. | :07:18. | |
on an energy supplier, on an Internet switching site | :07:19. | :07:20. | |
and actually on the But there is worry about being | :07:21. | :07:22. | |
on a database, plus many can't be bothered to switch, | :07:23. | :07:28. | |
even for a possible ?300 saving. Too lazy to get on the Internet | :07:29. | :07:31. | |
and get it changed. I can't be bothered to go | :07:32. | :07:35. | |
through all the hassle. I don't want people | :07:36. | :07:37. | |
getting my information. If they can get hold | :07:38. | :07:40. | |
of it, who else can? There's hundreds of pounds to be | :07:41. | :07:42. | |
shaved off families' That is the expectation | :07:43. | :07:48. | |
that Ofgem has now raised, so there will be huge | :07:49. | :07:53. | |
pressure to deliver, or they will face calls for wider controls | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
to put the lid on prices. The part of this we will be watching | :07:58. | :08:01. | |
really closely are these measures to get | :08:02. | :08:07. | |
more people switching not clear whether those | :08:08. | :08:08. | |
will work or not, but The question that will come back | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
in a few years' time if they don't work is whether there should | :08:13. | :08:17. | |
be a broader price cap to protect more people in the | :08:18. | :08:20. | |
market, essentially. Success could depend on these - | :08:21. | :08:21. | |
smart meters to help save energy and open the way to special | :08:22. | :08:24. | |
deals and faster switching, but it will be several years | :08:25. | :08:27. | |
before we all have them. 300 passengers and crew had a very | :08:28. | :08:29. | |
lucky escape this morning when their plane crash landed | :08:30. | :08:38. | |
at Dubai Airport and The Emirates Boeing 777 | :08:39. | :08:40. | |
was arriving from India Everyone on board survived | :08:41. | :08:45. | |
but a firefighter who was tackling 14 others were taken | :08:46. | :08:49. | |
to hospital - mostly Here's our transport correspondent | :08:50. | :08:53. | |
Richard Westcott. You can only imagine what it must | :08:54. | :09:03. | |
have been like for everyone on board. A normal landing turns to | :09:04. | :09:08. | |
chaos as the aircraft skips along on its belly, smoke pouring from the | :09:09. | :09:13. | |
cabin. Then it gets even worse. An explosion, probably fuel, | :09:14. | :09:16. | |
centrepiece of the aircraft spinning through the air, although we don't | :09:17. | :09:21. | |
know if everyone was off by that stage. 300 people escaped down these | :09:22. | :09:26. | |
inflatable slides. They say they got no warning anything was wrong. We | :09:27. | :09:34. | |
had not heard any announcement or anything, it was a big noise. The | :09:35. | :09:40. | |
smoke was coming inside and they asked us to evacuate so we escape | :09:41. | :09:49. | |
through the emergency exits. So we were jumping down. All of the people | :09:50. | :09:57. | |
were shouting, the children and women, people were shouting and | :09:58. | :10:03. | |
crying. This is what it looked like from another aircraft sitting | :10:04. | :10:11. | |
nearby. I turned and we saw this plane on its side, the wing coming | :10:12. | :10:19. | |
off, on fire, it was horrific, we saw the whole thing, it was crazy. | :10:20. | :10:27. | |
The chairman of Emirates said everything seemed fine as the | :10:28. | :10:32. | |
aircraft approached Dubai. Yet the plane doesn't seem to have had its | :10:33. | :10:38. | |
wheels down when it hit the ground. We don't yet know if it was down to | :10:39. | :10:45. | |
a mechanical problem, a mistake by the pilot, or a bit of both. Still, | :10:46. | :10:51. | |
it's incredible all of the passengers walked away from this | :10:52. | :10:54. | |
alive. Richard Westcott, BBC News. You leave it to the charities who | :10:55. | :11:57. | |
could do with it. She asked her to send donations to a | :11:58. | :13:00. | |
local doctor's surgery, but no money was received. What's more, she is | :13:01. | :13:06. | |
one of her valour tips. Who can you trust if you cannot trust a funeral | :13:07. | :13:10. | |
director? To think that she was also a member of your family, how much | :13:11. | :13:16. | |
worse does that make it for you? A hell of a lot worse. It could not | :13:17. | :13:23. | |
get any worse. That is the lowest of the low. It will always be with me | :13:24. | :13:30. | |
forever more, until I go. She even sent fake letters to some families, | :13:31. | :13:33. | |
pretending that money had been received. Some charities feel what | :13:34. | :13:40. | |
she did may affect future donations. But they stress it appears to be an | :13:41. | :13:42. | |
isolated case. A judge has ruled that | :13:43. | :13:44. | |
a woman from South Wales who claims her father has | :13:45. | :13:47. | |
kept her locked up against her will in Saudi Arabia must be allowed | :13:48. | :13:50. | |
to return to Britain. 21-year-old Amina Al-Jeffrey | :13:51. | :13:52. | |
grew up in Swansea - but was taken to Saudi | :13:53. | :13:55. | |
four years ago. Her father said he did | :13:56. | :13:57. | |
it to "save her life". The judge described it as an | :13:58. | :14:13. | |
important and difficult case. The 21-year-old at the centre of it not | :14:14. | :14:18. | |
able to tell her side of the story in person, but three snatched | :14:19. | :14:21. | |
conversations and e-mails her case proved compelling. The judge agreed | :14:22. | :14:26. | |
she had been imprisoned when she was taken to Saudi Arabia at 16 by her | :14:27. | :14:30. | |
father. He had said she was living a toxic lifestyle in Swansea on that | :14:31. | :14:34. | |
she was taking drugs and drinking and that by taking her away, he | :14:35. | :14:39. | |
saved her life. She was locked in his flat four hours a day while he | :14:40. | :14:46. | |
was at work, sometimes she claimed without food, water and toilet | :14:47. | :14:51. | |
facilities. The judge ruled the father must pay for her flight back | :14:52. | :14:54. | |
to Britain by September the 11th. The ruling will not have any legal | :14:55. | :14:58. | |
authority, not recognised by the Saudi legal system, her dual | :14:59. | :15:03. | |
nationality is not recognised there either. If he chooses to ignore the | :15:04. | :15:08. | |
order, he will be in contempt of court, but that is only punishable | :15:09. | :15:10. | |
if he chooses to come back to Britain. Despite this, the judge | :15:11. | :15:15. | |
said to do nothing would amount to a dereliction of duty to her, in | :15:16. | :15:18. | |
effect giving up on her. The first of 600 extra armed | :15:19. | :15:21. | |
officers start patrols in London after the recent terror attacks | :15:22. | :15:26. | |

It's an important moment at any Games, and of course a particularly | :16:16. | :16:18. | |
In a year where sport in general has been embroiled in controversy, | :16:19. | :16:23. | |
our Sports Editor Dan Roan looks at the difficulties faced | :16:24. | :16:27. | |
by the Olympic movement and considers how it can move | :16:28. | :16:29. | |
After a journey across Brazil, this morning's arrival | :16:30. | :16:38. | |
of the Olympic torch was a symbolic moment. | :16:39. | :16:41. | |
In two days it will be the focal point of the Opening Ceremony, | :16:42. | :16:44. | |
but the build-up has been a troubled one, dominated by the | :16:45. | :16:48. | |
Under severe pressure, the IOC is meeting here | :16:49. | :16:53. | |
this week amid a crisis of faith in its leadership, | :16:54. | :16:56. | |
and Britain's most successful Olympian says the start of the sport | :16:57. | :17:00. | |
I hope that there will be some amazing performances | :17:01. | :17:06. | |
across the board from all of the countries, not | :17:07. | :17:08. | |
just Great Britain, something we can celebrate, | :17:09. | :17:10. | |
and remind us what the point of the Olympic Games is, | :17:11. | :17:13. | |
about bringing the world together, celebrating humanity | :17:14. | :17:16. | |
and sport and not focusing on the negative issues. | :17:17. | :17:22. | |
London 2012 helped transform East London, and most | :17:23. | :17:27. | |
of the venues are in use, but failed to make Britain | :17:28. | :17:29. | |
The Sochi Winter Games were the most expensive ever and arguably the most | :17:30. | :17:34. | |
damaging, given the revelations of state-sponsored doping. | :17:35. | :17:39. | |
The setting is hard to beat, but it has struggled | :17:40. | :17:42. | |
with opposition, recession and concerns over Zika, | :17:43. | :17:45. | |
Come here to the Olympic Park, you are struck by the scale of local | :17:46. | :17:54. | |
For many, they are worth every penny, but for the critics, | :17:55. | :17:58. | |
they question the cost and the legacy of the Olympics, | :17:59. | :18:02. | |
and with more countries thinking twice before bidding to stage them, | :18:03. | :18:05. | |
the very future of the Olympic Games could be at stake. | :18:06. | :18:09. | |
IOC president Thomas Bach has pledged to reduce the cost | :18:10. | :18:11. | |
But some want other values prioritised. | :18:12. | :18:17. | |
Campaigners here insisting that mega events like this are too often | :18:18. | :18:21. | |
linked to human-rights abuses and corruption. | :18:22. | :18:24. | |
If the IOC and the international federations don't react, | :18:25. | :18:29. | |
if they continue as they do and say, "We don't care," it might be the end | :18:30. | :18:34. | |
of the Olympic Games, at least as a message to the world, | :18:35. | :18:40. | |
It is evident the Games remain big business, | :18:41. | :18:46. | |
with billions generated in sponsorship and broadcasting | :18:47. | :18:49. | |
There are some western cities that still want to play host. | :18:50. | :18:58. | |

from Bradford found dead in the Punjab last | :19:42. | :19:43. | |
Samia Shahid's father initially said she had died of a heart attack | :19:44. | :19:47. | |
But her husband claims she was the victim of a so-called | :19:48. | :19:51. | |
honour killing because her family disapproved of their marriage. | :19:52. | :19:58. | |
This is the quiet village where Samia Shahid came | :19:59. | :20:00. | |
to visit her family, and this is where she was killed. | :20:01. | :20:05. | |
We came to the house to speak to her relatives | :20:06. | :20:09. | |
and get their reaction on the latest police report. | :20:10. | :20:15. | |
Her aunt refused to address anything linked to the case. | :20:16. | :20:23. | |
She did mention that she saw her the morning before she died. | :20:24. | :20:26. | |
Initially her father said she had died of a heart attack. | :20:27. | :20:35. | |
He and her local MP in Bradford demanded further investigation. | :20:36. | :20:43. | |
This is the hospital where her body was taken after she died. | :20:44. | :20:46. | |
For the first week, the police said that there were no marks | :20:47. | :20:49. | |
It was only after her husband obtained a copy of the postmortem | :20:50. | :20:56. | |
that we learned there were marks around her neck. | :20:57. | :20:59. | |
The police tell us that she died from strangulation. | :21:00. | :21:04. | |
Her husband said he was not sure how to feel when he got the latest | :21:05. | :21:07. | |
I don't know whether to be happy or sad about it. | :21:08. | :21:15. | |
I lost her, but then I am happy that I am trying to find justice, | :21:16. | :21:19. | |
She did not deserve to die like this. | :21:20. | :21:26. | |
She was once married to her cousin in Pakistan, | :21:27. | :21:31. | |
before she returned to the UK and filed for divorce. | :21:32. | :21:35. | |
He claims her parents and cousins never forgave her because she | :21:36. | :21:38. | |
married outside the family against their wishes. | :21:39. | :21:43. | |
No arrests have been made, but police are investigating her | :21:44. | :21:49. | |
father and are looking to interrogate her ex-husband, who | :21:50. | :21:51. | |
The police have not yet revealed the motive behind the murder. | :21:52. | :21:56. | |
But the tragic turn of events for the 28-year-old Bradford-born | :21:57. | :21:58. | |
The contest to replace Nigel Farage as leader of Ukip has thrown | :21:59. | :22:08. | |
the party into disarray after one of the favourite candidates | :22:09. | :22:12. | |
The MEP Stephen Woolfe missed the deadline to submit his papers | :22:13. | :22:17. | |
Three members of Ukip's executive committee have now | :22:18. | :22:22. | |
This contest begins with quite a row? | :22:23. | :22:34. | |
Ukip IDs to blasts of internal turbulence, and today has been a | :22:35. | :22:42. | |
stormy one. They say a week is a long time in politics, just over a | :22:43. | :22:46. | |
quarter of an hour was a long time for Steven Woolfe. He said the | :22:47. | :22:53. | |
computer said no when he tried to submit his application. The | :22:54. | :22:56. | |
executive committee has said he cannot stand to be leader because | :22:57. | :23:00. | |
the application was late. He was seen as the frontrunner, but it is | :23:01. | :23:07. | |
not exactly a good few months for a little front runners, just ask Boris | :23:08. | :23:10. | |
Johnson. Amongst those who have resigned from the committee, there | :23:11. | :23:14. | |
is a sense of anger, they say there is escalating megalomania and | :23:15. | :23:19. | |
cronyism in the party. So now, an assembly of the unknown tried to | :23:20. | :23:23. | |
replace one of the most recognisable faces in British politics, and | :23:24. | :23:28. | |
whoever wins faces a huge task and a huge question. Given that the we are | :23:29. | :23:37. | |
leaving the EU, what now is the point of Ukip? | :23:38. | :23:42. | |
Now, if you have a fear of heights, this is not for you. | :23:43. | :23:45. | |
It's a glass walkway along a cliff in China called the Coiling Dragon. | :23:46. | :23:46. | |
Those brave enough to try it get a clear view | :23:47. | :23:48. | |
through the glass beneath their feet of the kilometre-and-a-half drop | :23:49. | :23:51. | |
down the side of Tianmen mountain in Hunan Province. | :23:52. | :23:55. | |
The 100-metre walkway has 99 turns around the side | :23:56. | :23:55. | |
A woman from Monmouthshire who flew to America to have a tumour removed | :23:56. | :24:02. | |
has landed her family with more than ?61 million, all | :24:03. | :24:07. | |
Her surgery went so well that she rang her daughter back home | :24:08. | :24:14. | |
and insisted that she buy a lottery ticket for the family. | :24:15. | :24:16. | |
It's a good job her daughter did what she was told, | :24:17. | :24:19. | |
This report contains some flash photography. | :24:20. | :24:29. | |
For the Davies family, life really can't get any better. | :24:30. | :24:32. | |
They won ?61 million in the Euro lottery in the same week that mum | :24:33. | :24:36. | |
Sonia found out that life-saving surgery on a tumour had | :24:37. | :24:39. | |
I just felt I had cheated death, I felt so lucky. | :24:40. | :24:44. | |
I was on a roll, I thought, "I will buy a lottery ticket." | :24:45. | :24:49. | |
I did not for a moment think we would win, but you feel so lucky, | :24:50. | :24:57. | |
It is tears of joy now for Stephanie, but it had taken | :24:58. | :25:10. | |
a long phone call from Mum to convince her to go out | :25:11. | :25:13. | |
She finally relented, and what a result. | :25:14. | :25:16. | |
We ran around the house, locked the doors and | :25:17. | :25:18. | |
windows, as if there was somebody watching us! | :25:19. | :25:19. | |
And then we were, "Well, what if the ticket disappears?" | :25:20. | :25:23. | |
So we took a few selfies with the ticket, to prove | :25:24. | :25:31. | |
I said I would buy an electric toothbrush because I have never | :25:32. | :25:42. | |
The family have decided to split the winnings equally, | :25:43. | :25:49. | |
which gets them just over ?12 million each. | :25:50. | :25:53. | |
All because that mum managed to get her daughter to listen | :25:54. | :25:56. | |
Mum has been cured, we can move forward and enjoy life. | :25:57. | :26:03. | |
The lottery on top of it is an added bonus. | :26:04. | :26:08. | |
The lesson is always listen to your mum? | :26:09. | :26:13. | |
The family now say they will sit back and let the good news sink | :26:14. | :26:18. | |
in before deciding how to invest their winnings. | :26:19. | :26:28. | |
The weather is always a lottery. The Western Highlands yesterday, you | :26:29. | :26:40. | |
were the winners, but today the losers. It has been wet and windy at | :26:41. | :26:47. | |
times. Some of the showers in tents, with thunder mixed in. Unseasonably | :26:48. | :26:52. | |
windy, with the strongest wind on exposed coasts across North Wales. | :26:53. | :27:01. | |
Further south, a different story. It has been warm with the wind, and | :27:02. | :27:08. | |
lovely sunshine. You see the best of the weather today. What is going on? | :27:09. | :27:12. | |
This low pressure to the north-west is circulating around these isobars. | :27:13. | :27:17. | |
The low pressure is yet to clear and it will bring some intense showers | :27:18. | :27:26. | |
over the next few hours, especially across the far north of Scotland. | :27:27. | :27:36. | |
The wind is gusty across the Scottish Borders, Northern Ireland | :27:37. | :27:43. | |
and close towards the Lake District. The wind will start to ease at the | :27:44. | :27:52. | |
low-pressure drifts away. It will push eastwards, off into the North | :27:53. | :27:57. | |
Sea overnight. It will allow the showers to move further south into | :27:58. | :28:06. | |
the North of England, the North Midlands and perhaps North Wales as | :28:07. | :28:14. | |
well. It stays mild through the night. We start tomorrow on a | :28:15. | :28:18. | |
quieter note | :28:19. | :28:20. |
