:02:09. > :02:13.June Kelly reports. Police recorded Ian Stewart's

:02:14. > :02:19.arrest at his house. I'm arresting you on suspicion

:02:20. > :02:22.of the murder of Helen Bailey. He was stunned he'd

:02:23. > :02:25.finally been caught out. For three months he'd

:02:26. > :02:27.been living with the body of his wealthy partner

:02:28. > :02:31.buried under the garage. My name's Helen Bailey and I'd

:02:32. > :02:33.like to introduce you to my new book, which is

:02:34. > :02:36.called When Bad Things Helen Bailey was

:02:37. > :02:40.a successful author. As well as murdering her,

:02:41. > :02:42.Stewart also killed her dachshund, After her husband's death

:02:43. > :02:55.Helen Bailey began blogging And it was through a

:02:56. > :02:58.Facebook bereavement group that she met Ian Stewart,

:03:02. > :03:03.their wedding, he was Ian Stewart's sons were

:03:04. > :03:06.in court to see their father convicted of killing the

:03:07. > :03:09.woman who was about to become their Last spring Helen Bailey suddenly

:03:10. > :03:19.vanished from the home she shared with them and their father

:03:20. > :03:21.in Royston in Hertfordshire. It took Ian Stewart

:03:22. > :03:23.five days to report Hertfordshire police,

:03:24. > :03:29.how can I help. Hello there, my partner has been

:03:30. > :03:31.missing since Monday. Three months after Helen

:03:32. > :03:37.Bailey's disappearance, police began searching the garage,

:03:38. > :03:40.which was at a distance from the This laser imaging illustrates

:03:41. > :03:42.how, underneath the hatched door there,

:03:43. > :03:47.there was a well with a cesspit. The police started probing

:03:48. > :03:52.and it was here below a layer of sewage

:03:53. > :03:53.that they saw an arm. They had found Helen Bailey's body

:03:54. > :03:57.and buried with her was her dog, There was even a possibility

:03:58. > :04:00.because she had been drugged that she could have been alive

:04:01. > :04:05.when Stewart put her down here. CCTV shows how within

:04:06. > :04:07.hours Ian Stewart drove Was that duvet taken to the tip

:04:08. > :04:16.because it had Helen's blood on it? In police interviews

:04:17. > :04:17.Stewart said nothing. He probably smothered Helen Bailey

:04:18. > :04:20.after drugging her over a He was set to benefit massively

:04:21. > :04:30.from her ?4 million fortune. If Helen had written

:04:31. > :04:32.a book of this story you He probably planned it

:04:33. > :04:37.all from the day he met And in hindsight I don't

:04:38. > :04:47.think he loved her at all And in hindsight I don't think

:04:48. > :04:50.he loved her at all but Helen This is Ian Stewart's

:04:51. > :04:53.late wife, Diane. Police are now

:04:54. > :04:54.re-examining her sudden She'd suffered from epilepsy

:04:55. > :04:58.and was said to have died from a Diane Stewart died of natural causes

:04:59. > :05:06.in 2010, it would only be right and proper that we re-looked

:05:07. > :05:09.at what the causes might be but of course it would be

:05:10. > :05:11.part of our inquiries, At the family home in Bassingbourn,

:05:12. > :05:17.in Cambridgeshire, Diane Diane was a very fit

:05:18. > :05:22.and healthy person, the whole of Bassingbourn was in

:05:23. > :05:25.shock, you could not believe it could have happened

:05:26. > :05:27.because there was no sign or prior knowledge

:05:28. > :05:29.that there was anything wrong

:05:30. > :05:30.with Diane whatsoever. After his wife died, Ian Stewart

:05:31. > :05:34.was seen with other women before he began his predatory

:05:35. > :05:39.pursuit of Helen Bailey. As a writer, she was

:05:40. > :05:42.used to studying human behaviour, but she never

:05:43. > :05:45.learned the true character of the man who was closest to her

:05:46. > :06:00.and who she thought she knew best. This was the same oath that crime

:06:01. > :06:03.and tonight police face questions as to why it took them three months to

:06:04. > :06:08.carry out a detailed search of the property. They say they were

:06:09. > :06:11.following normal procedure in a missing person's inquiry. At the

:06:12. > :06:16.heart of this story two families and Helen Bailey's brother John say both

:06:17. > :06:21.have been left devastated by what Ian Stewart has done. He will be

:06:22. > :06:23.sentenced tomorrow. Gene Kelly in Royston, thank you.

:06:24. > :06:26.A political row has erupted over the compensation paid to the British

:06:27. > :06:27.fighter with so-called Islamic State.

:06:28. > :06:29.Ronald Fiddler was formerly a detainee at Guantanamo Bay

:06:30. > :06:34.and is reported to have died in a suicide bombing in Iraq.

:06:35. > :06:36.Lord Carlile - who reviewed terror laws for ten years -

:06:37. > :06:38.said Fiddler should never have been paid a penny.

:06:39. > :06:42.Tony Blair has defended himself from attacks

:06:43. > :06:44.that he was responsible, saying the decision

:06:45. > :06:46.to award the compensation was taken by the mainly

:06:47. > :06:53.Our Deputy Political Editor John Pienaar reports.

:06:54. > :07:03.The face of a fanatic, Britain, about to die and Isis suicide

:07:04. > :07:06.bomber, detained, then freed, and reportedly paid ?1 million

:07:07. > :07:13.compensation in taxpayers gush. Why? That is now a bitter dispute. Born

:07:14. > :07:17.Ronald Fiddler he was among the suspected detainees held at Grant

:07:18. > :07:20.and obey without charge until following British government

:07:21. > :07:24.pressure he was freed to finally fight and die for so-called Islamic

:07:25. > :07:29.state. Tonight his family insisted that compensation was lower than ?1

:07:30. > :07:34.million for what they called mental cruelty and inhuman treatment. It's

:07:35. > :07:40.been hard, you know. He's gone now and I just hope that between him and

:07:41. > :07:45.his maker he is, do whatever he wants to do. But today the papers

:07:46. > :07:50.and some Tory MPs blamed the then Labour government for paying him and

:07:51. > :07:55.letting her go. Utter hypocrisy, said Tony Blair, the critics had

:07:56. > :08:00.demanded the freedom of the detainee. But Mr Blair has hit back.

:08:01. > :08:04.He said in a statement he was not paid compensation by my government,

:08:05. > :08:08.the compensation was agreed in 2010 by the Conservative government. The

:08:09. > :08:11.fact is that this was always a very difficult situation where any

:08:12. > :08:16.government would have to balance proper concern for civil liberties

:08:17. > :08:26.and desire to protect our security and we were likely to be attacked

:08:27. > :08:28.whatever course we took. It is just a matter of fact that compensation

:08:29. > :08:31.was decided by the Conservative government, by Kenneth Clarke, the

:08:32. > :08:36.Justice Secretary, not by a Labour government. According to this

:08:37. > :08:39.intelligence assessment on WikiLeaks Fiddler was a suspected terrorist

:08:40. > :08:43.associated with Al-Qaeda, yet he was compensated. There was evidence

:08:44. > :08:47.against these people yet the only way the actions could have been

:08:48. > :08:52.defended is if the intelligence and the sources of intelligence had been

:08:53. > :08:56.brought out in open court. And that would have undermined the whole of

:08:57. > :09:01.the efforts of the intelligence and security agencies. Jamal travelled

:09:02. > :09:06.to Pakistan in 2001. He was arrested that you're in Afghanistan, from

:09:07. > :09:10.there a transfer to Guantanamo Bay before repatriation and release in

:09:11. > :09:15.2004. In 2010 he was paid compensation and in April 20 14th to

:09:16. > :09:21.Syria via Turkey, to join Islamic State. Intelligence can now be used

:09:22. > :09:25.in court without compromising sources after a change in the law

:09:26. > :09:29.but hundreds of Britons have travelled to Iraq and Syria as

:09:30. > :09:33.jihadistss and one former minister said that they are likely to include

:09:34. > :09:37.some who have been monitored, perhaps even detained and

:09:38. > :09:42.compensated in the past. Is that the stock market? There may be more like

:09:43. > :09:46.Ronald Fiddler, security forces can only try to keep up their garden

:09:47. > :09:48.feature. John Pienaar, BBC News, Westminster.

:09:49. > :09:51.A toddler who died after suffering a catalogue of injuries at the hands

:09:52. > :09:54.of her legal guardian should never have been placed with her.

:09:55. > :09:57.That's the finding of a serious case review which has concluded 18 month

:09:58. > :10:01.was "invisible" to professionals - despite suffering over 150 injuries.

:10:02. > :10:03.Kandyce Downer was jailed for life after being convicted

:10:04. > :10:14.Our correspondent Sima Kotecha has more.

:10:15. > :10:24.Keegan died in September 20 15. She had suffered a catalogue of injuries

:10:25. > :10:29.and had 153 scars and bruises. Kandyce Downer was given custody of

:10:30. > :10:35.Keegan earlier that year. Last May she was convicted of the toddler's

:10:36. > :10:41.murder. Today a serious case review concluded that Keegan's death could

:10:42. > :10:46.not have been predicted. But it said she had been "Invisible" to

:10:47. > :10:49.professionals after being placed in Kandyce Downer's care, that

:10:50. > :10:53.insufficient discussion had taken place between involved agencies and

:10:54. > :10:58.that there was too much focus on Kandyce Downer's once rather than

:10:59. > :11:01.the needs of the child. An Ofsted report released last year said

:11:02. > :11:05.children's services in Birmingham were still failing to protect

:11:06. > :11:11.vulnerable children. They have been rated as inadequate since 2008. Can

:11:12. > :11:17.you generally put your hand in your heart and say that children in your

:11:18. > :11:20.care are safe? We still have inadequate rating for safeguarding

:11:21. > :11:24.survey are not safe enough. They are getting safer. We are making the

:11:25. > :11:29.system stronger. But we've got some way to go, we want to be

:11:30. > :11:32.outstanding. Last year the BBC highlighted that some special

:11:33. > :11:38.guardians like Kandyce Downer were not being vetted properly. To date's

:11:39. > :11:42.report said her assessment had been flawed and incomplete. Vetting is

:11:43. > :11:46.absolutely key. We need to be absolutely certain that the person

:11:47. > :12:02.applying to be a special Guardian is suitable, that they

:12:03. > :12:05.will make an appropriate guardian for the child and crucially a safe

:12:06. > :12:08.guardian for the child as well. The council says as a result of cases

:12:09. > :12:10.like this it has made the vetting process more robust. But Kandyce

:12:11. > :12:12.Downer's assessment has been labelled superficial today and has

:12:13. > :12:14.cost and 18 month year old her life. Sima Kotecha, BBC News, Birmingham.

:12:15. > :12:17.The BBC is to create a new digital television channel for Scotland.

:12:18. > :12:22.It will broadcast from 7 in the evening until midnight

:12:23. > :12:24.and will cost around ?30 million a year.

:12:25. > :12:26.There had been calls for a separate Six o'clock News

:12:27. > :12:29.for Scotland on BBC One - but this was rejected in favour

:12:30. > :12:32.of a Scottish news hour on this new channel.

:12:33. > :12:33.Our Scotland Editor Sarah Smith is in Glasgow.

:12:34. > :12:36.How's this announcement being received there?

:12:37. > :12:42.Well, it was a complete surprise to everyone in Scotland but it has been

:12:43. > :12:46.broadly welcomed by the SNP and by the Scottish Government who have

:12:47. > :12:49.been asking for a separate Scottish TV channel figures. People are

:12:50. > :12:53.demanding a separate six o'clock news for Scotland say they are

:12:54. > :12:56.disappointed but they will get an hour-long programme produced and

:12:57. > :12:59.presented from Glasgow at 9pm on the new channel.

:13:00. > :13:06.There is soon to be a lot more BBC in Scotland. Responding to demands

:13:07. > :13:10.for more spending and more dedicated news, Tony Hall came to Glasgow to

:13:11. > :13:14.announce a whole new channel. Does this mean you feel that what BBC

:13:15. > :13:18.Scotland has been offering so far hasn't given audience what they

:13:19. > :13:21.want? Khan no, I want to give audiences in Scotland more choice

:13:22. > :13:25.and I believe the excitement of saying that we have a new channel

:13:26. > :14:04.for Scotland, what will it be, how will reschedule it, how will we make

:14:05. > :14:08.sure we get dramas, comedies, journalism, talk shows and at the

:14:09. > :14:10.heart of it this one hour news from Scotland, that's an exciting

:14:11. > :14:12.proposition for viewers in Scotland. The new channel will run programmes

:14:13. > :14:14.like the adventure show along with drama, comedy, factual and

:14:15. > :14:16.entertainment programmes, made in Scotland for a Scottish audience.

:14:17. > :14:18.On-air from 7pm until midnight every day but why does Scotland need its

:14:19. > :14:21.own dedicated channel? At the most basic level Scotland is a nation,

:14:22. > :14:23.not a region like Lancashire or whatever. It's also important to

:14:24. > :14:25.understand that Scotland has its state, legal system, education

:14:26. > :14:27.system, artistic community is, all of which are befitting of a small

:14:28. > :14:30.modern nation and they are not being reflected well now through the BBC.

:14:31. > :14:33.The new channel will have a budget of ?30 million a year. There will be

:14:34. > :14:35.one hour-long news programme at nine o'clock every night, due to launch

:14:36. > :14:37.in the summer of 2018. The long-running debate about whether

:14:38. > :14:40.Scotland needs its own separate news programme at 6pm on BBC One is now

:14:41. > :14:42.over. Viewers in within its state, legal system, education system,

:14:43. > :14:44.artistic community is, all of which are befitting of a small modern

:14:45. > :14:47.mission and they are not being reflected well now through the BBC.

:14:48. > :14:50.The new channel will have a budget of ?30 million a year. There will be

:14:51. > :14:52.one hour-long news programme at nine o'clock every night, due to launch

:14:53. > :14:55.in the sum of 2018. The long-running debate about whether Scotland needs

:14:56. > :14:57.its own separate news programme at 6pm on BBC One is now over. Viewers

:14:58. > :15:00.in Scotland will get Scottish Nine on the new channel instead of a

:15:01. > :15:02.Scottish Six which does not satisfy everyone. Obviously I welcome new

:15:03. > :15:05.jobs and new investment in BBC Scotland. I am however disappointed

:15:06. > :15:07.the BBC Scottish Nine on the new channel instead of a Scottish Six

:15:08. > :15:09.which does not satisfy everyone. Obviously I welcome new jobs and new

:15:10. > :15:12.investment in BBC Scotland. I am however disappointed the we know.

:15:13. > :15:14.Nothing the BBC does will never has decided not to go ahead with the

:15:15. > :15:17.separate Scottish Six on BBC One because I think this is exactly the

:15:18. > :15:19.time for a launch of this new programme with all the political

:15:20. > :15:31.developments we know. Nothing the BBC does will never please Sarah

:15:32. > :15:33.Smith, BBC News, and as the corporation has to make cuts

:15:34. > :15:34.elsewhere viewers in other parts of the country might wonder why

:15:35. > :15:39.Scotland deserves special treatment. The fiance of the children's author

:15:40. > :15:44.Helen Bailey has been found guilty of murdering her and dumping her

:15:48. > :15:51.beautiful and famous dresses Coming up in Sportsday

:15:52. > :15:54.on BBC News... We'll be looking ahead to this

:15:55. > :15:56.weekend's Rugby Union Six Nations Championship,

:15:57. > :16:02.as George North looks set It's London Fashion Week,

:16:03. > :16:07.the annual event where high fashion and new designs for the High Street

:16:08. > :16:10.are shown on the catwalks. But how much does the fashion

:16:11. > :16:12.industry cater to its customers With a collective spending

:16:13. > :16:17.power of ?249 billion, they are a huge source

:16:18. > :16:19.of potential revenue. But lots of High Street shops

:16:20. > :16:22.still aren't making it easy for disabled customers

:16:23. > :16:23.to spend their money. As part of the BBC's

:16:24. > :16:25.Disability Works Week, our correspondent Nikki Fox takes

:16:26. > :16:28.a closer look. We are not used to seeing

:16:29. > :16:35.difference on the catwalk. But on Friday, two disabled models

:16:36. > :16:37.opened London Fashion Week We approached the styling

:16:38. > :16:47.and the casting of this collection They have the spending power

:16:48. > :16:51.that no one seems to be That's a big enough reason,

:16:52. > :17:01.to be honest, to begin with. And, again, our kind of overriding

:17:02. > :17:04.conclusion is why not? High-end fashion might be

:17:05. > :17:06.out of reach for many, but there is money to be made

:17:07. > :17:29.on the high street. The Government says disabled people

:17:30. > :17:40.and their families have ?249 billion a year spending power,

:17:41. > :17:42.according to latest figures from the Department

:17:43. > :17:43.for Work and Pensions. Sophie Morgan designed this

:17:44. > :17:46.wheelchair for a sitting mannequin. I have not seen it in a shop window

:17:47. > :17:50.in about five years. During the Paralympics in 2012

:17:51. > :17:53.she got a product into a big high street store but it was taken out

:17:54. > :17:56.as soon as the games ended. She thinks now is the right time

:17:57. > :17:59.to give it another go. I wanted this chair to be a symbol

:18:00. > :18:03.of inclusion from the shop so that I could come past this shop

:18:04. > :18:06.and I know that this shop will have thought about how to style

:18:07. > :18:09.somebody in a wheelchair. But furthermore that their shop

:18:10. > :18:11.is accessible and they have changing It is not just about seeing

:18:12. > :18:15.disability on the high street. Making sure disabled

:18:16. > :18:18.people can actually get into shops so that they can

:18:19. > :18:20.spend their hard earned cash. Exclusive figures show that

:18:21. > :18:23.of the nearly 1300 fashion retailers the organisation DisabledGo visited,

:18:24. > :18:25.23% had no step-free access. And 90% were unable to offer

:18:26. > :18:27.a specialist sound system The 2010 Equality Act is meant

:18:28. > :18:31.to ensure disabled people have equal Which is why those behind this

:18:32. > :18:35.recent survey are disappointed. There were things that everyone

:18:36. > :18:38.could do to improve their access - it could be simply, you know,

:18:39. > :18:40.allowing your staff time It could be making sure your

:18:41. > :18:44.aisles are kept clear. It could be providing a hearing loop

:18:45. > :18:47.or a water bowl for assistance dogs. The British Retail Consortium says

:18:48. > :18:50.shop owners can face restrictions on making adjustments

:18:51. > :18:51.because of the age or Whether it is shopping or modelling,

:18:52. > :18:55.many feel disability Both Kelly and myself have travelled

:22:09. > :22:19.And artist impression of a startling discovery deep in space. Around a

:22:20. > :22:23.faint and distant star much weaker than our sun, a collection of planet

:22:24. > :22:26.surprisingly similar to Earth. In all seven of these worlds have been

:22:27. > :22:30.spotted and astronomers think it will change how we look at the night

:22:31. > :22:35.sky. An array of telescopes point to one spot in space, and scientists

:22:36. > :22:39.were looking for tiny clues about the light of a particular star

:22:40. > :22:43.becoming dimmer on a regular basis as planets orbited in front of it.

:22:44. > :22:47.They can't see these new worlds but they know that they are there. We

:22:48. > :22:52.are extremely excited, this is the biggest amount of planets we have

:22:53. > :22:57.found in one go that looked like the Earth in composition, size and mass.

:22:58. > :23:01.All seven are far enough to the star and close enough to hold liquid

:23:02. > :23:05.water, and that is just incredible. This is the latest revelation in a

:23:06. > :23:10.wave of discoveries of the past 25 years of new worlds that exist in

:23:11. > :23:14.solar systems beyond our own. The total of these distant planet is now

:23:15. > :23:19.stands at well over 3000. What makes this discovery so unusual is the

:23:20. > :23:23.sheer number of new worlds spotted in one go. Seven in all, and

:23:24. > :23:27.crucially they are just the right temperature for liquid water to

:23:28. > :23:32.exist at the surface. Three of them are in what is called the habitable

:23:33. > :23:34.zone, raising the tantalising possibility that they could

:23:35. > :23:39.conceivably horsed life, but we will not be getting there in a hurry.

:23:40. > :23:44.They are 40 light-years away and to reach them using the Rockets we have

:23:45. > :23:48.now would take something like 700,000 years. There is so much to

:23:49. > :23:52.find out about these worlds, whether the artists' impressions are right,

:23:53. > :23:56.whether it is possible the conditions for life do exist. And

:23:57. > :24:00.astronomers said they will be a huge effort to try to find out. The more

:24:01. > :24:04.we look, the more planets we find and the more earthlike planets we

:24:05. > :24:08.find, but this is especially exciting because this, the ultra

:24:09. > :24:20.cool start we have discovered, they are quite populous

:24:21. > :24:24.throughout our galaxy and it is the first time we have found planets

:24:25. > :24:26.orbiting a star like this and we have found seven of them. The best

:24:27. > :24:29.hope lies with huge new telescopes which will come into service soon,

:24:30. > :24:31.improving the chances of getting a really close look at these alien

:24:32. > :24:34.worlds, to see for example if they do have oceans, and maybe, just

:24:35. > :24:42.maybe, discover if they have life. David Shukman, BBC News.

:24:45. > :24:47.and now some of Princess Diana's dresses are to go on display at her

:24:48. > :24:52.The collection will include an ink blue gown she wore when she danced

:24:53. > :24:55.with the actor John Travolta at the White House in 1985.

:24:56. > :24:56.The exhibition coincides with the 20th

:24:57. > :24:58.anniversary of her death, as our royal correspondent

:24:59. > :25:01.This is some flash photography from the start.

:25:02. > :25:03.Her public image was in so many ways defined

:25:04. > :25:06.She was one of world's most photographed women,

:25:07. > :25:09.and many of the world's top designers clamoured to dress her.

:25:10. > :25:11.The results were frequently eye-catching - dresses that have

:25:12. > :25:15.And now, 20 years after Diana's death, 25 of those dresses have

:25:16. > :25:17.been brought together, for an exhibition at her former

:25:18. > :25:23.They chart the evolution of a relatively demure newlywed,

:25:24. > :25:25.through to her emergence on the international stage,

:25:26. > :25:27.with, outwardly at least, much greater confidence

:25:28. > :25:35.So here are some of the famous dresses.

:25:36. > :25:37.The one that she wore to dance with John Travolta,

:25:38. > :25:42.and others that were part of her wardrobe in the 1990s.

:25:43. > :25:45.By the time she is wearing this dress, she is very confident

:25:46. > :25:48.in her own sense of style - we are seeing a Diana

:25:49. > :25:50.who has risen above those seasonal changes in fashion.

:25:51. > :25:53.And she has a timeless elegance - she knows what suits her

:25:54. > :25:56.Few would disagree with that, and the exhibition organisers can be

:25:57. > :25:59.confident that the crowds will come from around the world to experience

:26:00. > :26:04.Interest in Diana remains considerable, despite the passage

:26:05. > :26:06.of years, but one imagines that her family would hope

:26:07. > :26:09.that she will be remembered for much more than just the dresses she wore.

:26:10. > :26:11.So do the organisers feel comfortable about perpetuating

:26:12. > :26:21.Diana herself didn't like to be known as a clotheshorse,

:26:22. > :26:24.however she did understand the language of fashion very well

:26:25. > :26:27.and she used clothes to help her do the job at hand.

:26:28. > :26:29.She was a very proud ambassadoress for British fashion

:26:30. > :26:32.as Princess of Wales, but she also used clothes to help

:26:58. > :27:12.Tomasz Schafernaker is here. Tell us all about Doris. Dark and stormy

:27:13. > :27:16.Doris. We will have to batten down, brace ourselves and be steady with

:27:17. > :27:20.that brolly. Watch the trees as well because the winds will be really

:27:21. > :27:24.strong. At the moment, not much of a storm because it is still in its

:27:25. > :27:28.developing stage and that is not good news because as it moves across

:27:29. > :27:32.the UK it will be at its peak when it is developing and those vicious

:27:33. > :27:44.winds will slice the UK, and that is when we will see the worst of the

:27:45. > :27:46.weather. Tomorrow morning onwards and through the course of the

:27:47. > :27:49.afternoon. There are two elements to the storm, snow first, rain and

:27:50. > :27:51.wind. The snow will fall across southern and some central parts of

:27:52. > :27:55.Scotland. An amber warning is in force for snow. This is Scotland,

:27:56. > :27:57.and in some parts we could be waking up in Scotland to seems like this,

:27:58. > :28:02.particularly across the hills which is where we will be getting a lot of

:28:03. > :28:05.the snow. This is when the storm is at its peak, slamming into

:28:06. > :28:10.north-western parts of England, nor the Wales, to the Midlands and also

:28:11. > :28:14.into East Anglia. Another amber warning from the Met Office for high

:28:15. > :28:19.winds. Let's look at the winds from the morning onwards. We often speak

:28:20. > :28:23.about 70, 80 mph gusts in the winter, but these winds will be

:28:24. > :28:26.realised in land. We are not speaking about the north-west coast

:28:27. > :28:29.of Scotland and the Northern Isles where we often get these winds. This

:28:30. > :28:33.potentially affect our infrastructure so we are speaking

:28:34. > :28:45.about the potential for high sided vehicles to be blown over, perhaps a

:28:46. > :28:48.little damage here and there but for some it could be proper structural

:28:49. > :28:50.damage, so really take care tomorrow. Around about three o'clock

:28:51. > :28:52.in the afternoon, Lincolnshire and East Anglia bearing the brunt of the

:28:53. > :28:55.storm and then later on Thursday into Friday night, it comes down and

:28:56. > :28:57.some of us probably picking up the bits and pieces. Take care tomorrow.
