:00:14. > :00:22.Good evening. This is BBC Newsline with Donna Traynor & Noel Thompson.

:00:22. > :00:24.The headlines this Wednesday evening: Unemployment hits a 14

:00:24. > :00:30.year high. It means the early one in five

:00:30. > :00:34.young people cannot find work. You think a degree guarantees you a

:00:34. > :00:37.job. Of the fact is that you get out there and you cannot jump half

:00:37. > :00:42.the way up the job ladder, you start at the bottom like everyone

:00:42. > :00:45.else. Budget cuts delay improvements to

:00:45. > :00:50.the Belfast to Londonderry well byline.

:00:50. > :00:54.Electricity prices are set to go up by 20%.

:00:54. > :00:59.BBC Newsline uncovers the phone scam was trying to get hold of your

:00:59. > :01:07.credit card details. And it will turn chilly overnight.

:01:07. > :01:11.I will have all the details later. If you want to be reminded how

:01:11. > :01:16.fragile our economy is at the moment, all you need to do is look

:01:16. > :01:23.at the latest job figures. The number of people signing on the

:01:23. > :01:27.door has passed the 60,000 mark for the first time since September 1997.

:01:27. > :01:37.The number claiming unemployment benefit in due live rose to more

:01:37. > :01:38.

:01:38. > :01:42.than 60,000. -- in July. Almost one in five young people looking for a

:01:42. > :01:48.job cannot find one. It is not all rosy for those who do

:01:48. > :01:52.find work. For some graduates it is a case of taking what they can get

:01:52. > :02:00.and not a job connected to their qualification. There any sort of

:02:00. > :02:03.employment that would go to school leavers. Earlier today I spoke to

:02:03. > :02:09.graduates his study had not got them on to their preferred career

:02:09. > :02:12.path. Clare at South -- McClure study law

:02:12. > :02:17.and politics and graduated two years ago.

:02:17. > :02:23.I am working in a coffee bar at the moment. I studied law and politics

:02:23. > :02:27.but I am not sure if either of those avenues is open to me. I am

:02:27. > :02:32.very interested in artistic pursuits. I would like to do

:02:32. > :02:37.something in that but achieving it is another thing.

:02:37. > :02:40.Peter graduated three years ago. He studied English literature and film

:02:40. > :02:46.studies and did a Masters in advertising.

:02:46. > :02:55.I am taking temporary jobs where I can. I am doing admin and office

:02:55. > :03:00.but work. -- and office work. Nickie studied English. He

:03:00. > :03:04.graduated in 2009. I want to work in advertising or

:03:04. > :03:11.marketing. After years of study, how

:03:11. > :03:18.frustrating it is it the line-out in jobs you have not plan to do? --

:03:18. > :03:23.and that you are now in jobs. It is frustrating. I am doing jobs

:03:23. > :03:28.I was threatened with the type of jobs I do now. I was told that if I

:03:28. > :03:31.did not work hard I would have to do this kind of job. People make

:03:31. > :03:36.you feel bad about in that kind of work.

:03:36. > :03:41.There is nothing wrong with working in a bar or coffee shop. You have

:03:41. > :03:46.to do it again money coming in. I think it is about keeping your

:03:46. > :03:51.spirits high. You need to keep applying for the job you want.

:03:51. > :03:55.Many will be under the impression that you get a third level

:03:55. > :04:00.education, you should be guaranteed a job.

:04:00. > :04:04.For a you issue a decree guarantees you a job. The fact is, you get out

:04:04. > :04:09.there and you cannot jump halfway up the job ladder. You have to

:04:09. > :04:16.start at the bottom like everyone else. The degree comes into play

:04:16. > :04:20.halfway up the job ladder. You can go a bit further. There is a sort

:04:20. > :04:25.of pride issue as well. You think that because you have the degree

:04:25. > :04:34.you deserve to start off at a better job or a higher-paying job.

:04:34. > :04:38.You have to fight that mentality. There is just a sort of panic mode

:04:38. > :04:46.at the minute because there is a recession. Everyone is neglecting

:04:46. > :04:52.the facts but will it takes people 15 or 20 years at times what they

:04:52. > :04:55.want to do with their lives. I do not think people need to panic.

:04:55. > :04:57.If you find yourself in a similar position, we would like to hear

:04:57. > :04:59.your story. You can get in touch with us

:04:59. > :05:00.through our Facebook page. That's facebook.com/bbcnewsline or contact

:05:00. > :05:10.us on Twitter. That's twitter.com/bbcnewsline. And

:05:10. > :05:14.

:05:14. > :05:18.there's also our email: I talked to just a sample of

:05:18. > :05:24.graduates there. A lesson to all of us not to expect too much in regard

:05:24. > :05:28.to job prospects at the moment. People are not being put off going

:05:28. > :05:34.to university. A degree is no guarantee of a job but more people

:05:34. > :05:40.than ever are applying for places. Our Education Correspondent is with

:05:40. > :05:46.me. More are replying but are they choosing more vocational courses? -

:05:46. > :05:54.- more are applying. Some people have applied for are a

:05:54. > :06:00.number of courses. There is a run on places because of the possible

:06:00. > :06:05.increase in tuition fees. However, some of the changes are due to

:06:05. > :06:09.recession and not tuition fees. There has been a drop in the number

:06:09. > :06:15.of people going for Jobson relating to the built environment,

:06:15. > :06:21.architecture, civil and structural engineering. A lot of people in

:06:21. > :06:26.those jobs were emigrating to get work. Other popular jobs are

:06:26. > :06:31.nursing and business and communications studies. People see

:06:31. > :06:37.a job at the end of those courses. Many people get their A-level

:06:37. > :06:40.results tomorrow. A new mode of delivery this year?

:06:40. > :06:46.This is the first year that people will be able to get their results

:06:46. > :06:54.online if they wanted from about 7am. There were pilot schemes last

:06:54. > :06:58.year. This year, the lower and upper 6th will be able to get their

:06:58. > :07:05.results if they log on with a pin number. Not every school has signed

:07:05. > :07:11.up for this. About 60% have. We expect about 25,000 students to

:07:11. > :07:16.sign up and login to find out what results they have. Then a key go on

:07:16. > :07:22.to the universe the clearing sites to find out what places they can

:07:22. > :07:27.get. About 40% of schools have decided that they want pupils to

:07:27. > :07:33.come in for a reassuring hug. Lots of decisions will be made

:07:34. > :07:37.tomorrow, not least about tuition fees. The website has a question

:07:37. > :07:41.and answer section of on tuition fees.

:07:41. > :07:46.Safety work on the railway line between Belfast and Londonderry

:07:46. > :07:50.will mean quite a lot of disruption for passengers for the foreseeable

:07:50. > :07:54.future. The line is due a major upgrade but the transport Minister

:07:54. > :07:58.says the money for that will not be available for three years. In the

:07:58. > :08:06.meantime, the safety programme will affect many services with

:08:06. > :08:12.passengers being taken by bus between Coleraine and Sterry. --

:08:12. > :08:16.Coleraine and Londonderry. The move has provoked anger.

:08:16. > :08:20.This well why has been described as one of the most picturesque train

:08:20. > :08:25.journeys in the world. Michael Palin even made a programme

:08:25. > :08:29.celebrating its beauty. Single track and stately speed to show

:08:29. > :08:33.where the transport priorities lie in Northern Ireland.

:08:33. > :08:39.It is also a key economic link between the two big cities of

:08:39. > :08:42.Northern Ireland. Translink says it needs to carry out essential

:08:42. > :08:46.maintenance but when this happens the frequency of services on the

:08:46. > :08:50.line will be reduced by six trains a day.

:08:50. > :08:54.A third of all the trains will terminate hearing Coleraine.

:08:54. > :09:02.Passengers from Belfast will have to get up and make the rest of the

:09:02. > :09:10.journey by bus. That could take up to two years. -- that could

:09:10. > :09:14.continue for ought to two years. The trains that will continue on

:09:14. > :09:19.the original route will take even longer.

:09:20. > :09:22.I come down to Derry quite a lot. The train line is very scenic. I

:09:22. > :09:27.think it will be quite disappointing if it becomes a bus

:09:27. > :09:32.service. Why when they spend the money on

:09:32. > :09:36.this side of Coleraine? I prefer to take the train, to be

:09:36. > :09:41.honest. The money for a comprehensive

:09:41. > :09:46.refits of the line is not available. That is due to the public sector

:09:46. > :09:53.spending cuts. Work on a major upgrade was a poster start next

:09:53. > :10:01.year but has been delayed. It remains a promise of a

:10:01. > :10:05.embarrassment of �75 million. We now have a Minister saying this

:10:05. > :10:13.change represents an improvement to services. It is an indictment of

:10:13. > :10:19.the service that Translink currently offers. If the buses work

:10:19. > :10:23.well, well a perhaps council the trains altogether?

:10:23. > :10:28.The transport minister, Danny Kennedy, says he has no plans to

:10:28. > :10:32.allow on the line so close. Derry will be the UK city of Culture in

:10:32. > :10:34.2014 and will be pushing for more tourism.

:10:34. > :10:37.The public service union NIPSA says it intends to ballot its members on

:10:37. > :10:45.whether to take strike action after meeting the education minister Jon

:10:45. > :10:49.O'Dowd. The union has predicted that budget cuts could cost 1000

:10:50. > :10:53.jobs in his department. A spokesman said the minister described the

:10:53. > :10:58.situation as bleak and was unable to give them assurances that job

:10:58. > :11:02.losses could be avoided. Two men have appeared in court on

:11:02. > :11:08.charges linked to the murder of Marc Williamson who was stabbed to

:11:08. > :11:15.death in Portadown on Sunday morning.

:11:15. > :11:20.The parents of Marc Williamson leave Lisburn Kirk House. -- Court

:11:20. > :11:26.House. He died after being stabbed near his flat in Hartfield Avenue

:11:26. > :11:31.in the early hours of Sunday morning. Today 26 year-old Denvir

:11:31. > :11:34.Cardwell was charged with his murder. He steered with his head

:11:34. > :11:41.bowed and only nodded to confirm that he understood the charge

:11:41. > :11:46.against him. Alongside him in the day up -- in the dock was David

:11:46. > :11:52.Stuart McCullough. He is accused of intimidating a witness and

:11:52. > :11:58.assisting an offender. The police particularly want to hear from the

:11:58. > :12:06.driver of a silver Vauxhall Vectra or that was parked outside a house

:12:06. > :12:09.at around us for 20 am on Sunday. The two men will appear in court

:12:10. > :12:16.again next month and have been remanded in custody.

:12:16. > :12:20.Still to come. I am alive in Omagh and there is

:12:20. > :12:25.something in the air that is not pleasant.

:12:25. > :12:30.And one man's recipe for getting off the dole. Once a pretty, now a

:12:30. > :12:35.chef. If you are a customer of our

:12:35. > :12:40.biggest home electricity supplier, you are about to face a price hike.

:12:40. > :12:47.The increases by Power NI I ate will be announced next week by the

:12:47. > :12:53.utility regulator. All across the British Isles, power

:12:53. > :12:59.companies are hiking up tariffs, blaming increases on the rise of

:12:59. > :13:03.the cast of the coal, oil and gas are needed to produce electricity.

:13:04. > :13:07.Power NI will have to convince the utility regulator that a sharp

:13:07. > :13:11.increase is justified. The final figure will not be made public

:13:11. > :13:17.until next week but there is well- founded speculation that it could

:13:17. > :13:23.be as much as 20%. That would add around �99 per year to the average

:13:23. > :13:28.bill. Prices are rising on the wholesale

:13:28. > :13:32.markets. We are concerned about how this will impact on consumers,

:13:32. > :13:36.especially the 40% of consumers who are in fuel poverty in Northern

:13:36. > :13:40.Ireland and struggle to pay their bills.

:13:40. > :13:46.Consumers may feel they can ill- afford a 20% increase in their

:13:46. > :13:52.edges of the bill. The power company has frozen prices since

:13:52. > :13:59.2008 and the last price move was down when Pat -- went Harris were

:13:59. > :14:06.cut by 15% in 2009. Details of the price increase will be made public

:14:06. > :14:11.next week. The price rise is likely to apply from 1st October.

:14:11. > :14:15.While electricity prices are set to move up, heating oil has become

:14:15. > :14:25.cheaper in recent weeks. The question is how long will that

:14:25. > :14:26.

:14:26. > :14:32.continue? From around �550 a few weeks ago, a

:14:32. > :14:36.similar amount will cost around �500. The market does remain

:14:36. > :14:40.volatile. At the moment I'll prices have

:14:40. > :14:44.fallen and they have come down by 10% during the summer. It is hard

:14:44. > :14:50.to predict what will happen in the future. We hope they will come down

:14:50. > :14:59.further. An increase of up to 20% of will

:14:59. > :15:03.ports many household finances under For one of our viewers has got in

:15:03. > :15:08.touch to tell us about a telephone scam, in which fraudsters tried to

:15:08. > :15:13.get people's credit card details. John Ellison became suspicious when

:15:13. > :15:17.he got a call from someone posing as a market researcher. He has told

:15:17. > :15:21.his story in the hope that no one will fall for it.

:15:21. > :15:26.Phone of fraudsters often operate overseas, but they can reach us in

:15:26. > :15:30.our living rooms. John Ellison from Newry received a scam call two

:15:30. > :15:37.nights ago. The caller said he was carrying out a consumer survey, but

:15:37. > :15:43.John became suspicious. I was able to ascertain that the call was a

:15:43. > :15:47.call about which I had questions, I came to the conclusion that this

:15:47. > :15:51.could have been a telephone scam to elicit responses which could be

:15:52. > :15:56.used for a credit card scam. So with that in mind, I ended the

:15:56. > :16:01.conversation. For last night, he received another call, this time

:16:01. > :16:06.the caller hung up when he started questioning him. John contacted BT

:16:06. > :16:10.to tell them what was happening. The response I got indicated that

:16:10. > :16:15.there appeared to be a planned and systematic background to this, and

:16:15. > :16:19.therefore I contacted your selves in the BBC so that this message

:16:19. > :16:24.could be related to people across the province, so that people would

:16:24. > :16:27.not fall victim to this particular scam. John got in touch with BBC

:16:28. > :16:32.Newsline because he was concerned that other people might be more

:16:32. > :16:36.vulnerable to the fraudsters. According to the Trading Standards

:16:36. > :16:40.service, this sort of scam happens often. It is obviously a very

:16:40. > :16:44.common scam, we get a lot of complaints from consumers who are

:16:45. > :16:49.contacted directly from someone telling them there is a problem

:16:49. > :16:52.with their computer when things like that. There is a variation on

:16:52. > :16:57.a theme, people are just looking for credit card details so that

:16:57. > :17:02.they can take people's money. BT have told us about another

:17:02. > :17:06.common scam. Fraudsters phone customers pretending to be from a

:17:06. > :17:10.phone company. They claim there is an unpaid bill, and they threaten

:17:10. > :17:14.to cut off the line. As a result, several people have handed over

:17:14. > :17:18.their details. The advice for anyone who suspects they are

:17:18. > :17:21.receiving a fraudulent call is that they should not engage the caller,

:17:21. > :17:26.and their aim is not under any circumstances give out personal or

:17:26. > :17:31.financial information. The Nationwide Building Society has

:17:31. > :17:35.removed adverts from its branches which make reference to the

:17:35. > :17:40.financial problems of the Presbyterian Mutual Society. The 14

:17:40. > :17:42.posters revert to the collapse of the PMS, of which went into

:17:42. > :17:46.administration in 2008. In a statement, Nationwide said the

:17:46. > :17:49.advert was not meant to cause offence and was trying to highlight

:17:49. > :17:53.the building society as a safe place to save.

:17:53. > :17:56.Earlier, we heard about another rise in the jobless total. To get

:17:56. > :18:01.off the dole, many people are thinking of making a radical change

:18:01. > :18:07.of career. But it is some late -- week to go from being a bricklayer

:18:07. > :18:14.to a chef. That is exactly what a man in Newcastle has done. France's

:18:14. > :18:19.Gorman et Paddy McAuley. Crabmeat, prom, soft cheese, lemon

:18:19. > :18:25.zest. One of Paddy McAuley's starters at the bar and a hotel.

:18:25. > :18:30.But he was not always a chef. For 20 years, he was a bricklayer.

:18:30. > :18:37.got to the stage where I had no work in six weeks. It could not pay

:18:37. > :18:43.the bills. He decided it was time for any other job. He looked for

:18:43. > :18:48.one year, and washed dishes at minimum wage for another. Them,

:18:48. > :18:54.promotion to chef. A I am enjoying it. Then I know that when I come to

:18:54. > :18:59.work, I am not under get turned away. And you have been back to

:18:59. > :19:07.college to study and take courses in catering? Yes, I took a course

:19:07. > :19:14.in cookery. It was difficult, sitting with the young ones. And it

:19:14. > :19:19.-- it was not like that at all. boss is Paddy Boyle. He recalls

:19:19. > :19:24.giving the former bricklayer a six- week trial in the kitchen. He took

:19:24. > :19:29.to it like a duck to water. He loves it, we like him. He is always

:19:29. > :19:34.on time. You can depend on him. is he an exception? His boss says

:19:34. > :19:37.it is very difficult to recruit and keep local people in the kitchen.

:19:37. > :19:42.lot of then you cannot depend on, they want to come and say that they

:19:42. > :19:45.want to do this, do that, they will stay for two or three weeks, and

:19:45. > :19:52.then they get paid and they go drinking on Friday and leave you

:19:52. > :19:57.without a chef at the weekend. We have three people that week when

:19:57. > :20:02.three an agency to get, they came from India. To meet the demand for

:20:02. > :20:07.chefs, the Mattel is building its own training kitchen, designed to

:20:07. > :20:10.attract school-leavers. Paddy is planning a more cooking

:20:10. > :20:14.qualifications. But there is one thing he does not need to learn.

:20:14. > :20:22.Quite often when you go into a restaurant and get your main course,

:20:22. > :20:28.everything is stacked one on top of the other. It is easy for me to do

:20:28. > :20:38.that! Creating dishes like these is a far cry from building walls. But

:20:38. > :20:38.

:20:38. > :20:42.Paddy has turned a corner, and is planning to stay in the kitchen.

:20:42. > :20:46.As our floor manager said, that these will be setting in 10

:20:46. > :20:51.minutes! Residents of part of a map are

:20:51. > :20:55.raising a stink over a smell they say is blighting their lives --

:20:55. > :20:59.Omagh. It has been worse with the warm weather and they are calling

:20:59. > :21:06.for an investigation. Louise Cullen is getting to the bottom of it.

:21:06. > :21:10.I am here in Omagh. Residents have been played for the last four years

:21:10. > :21:16.with a bad smell. Some of it has been due to industrial discharge,

:21:16. > :21:21.but last year, Northern Ireland Water carried out sewage works, and

:21:21. > :21:25.residents say it has not helped, it has only shifted the smells. You

:21:25. > :21:29.have a business and have had to turn away clients because you're

:21:29. > :21:33.worried about the smell. What impact is it having on your live?

:21:33. > :21:37.It is dreadful, you can no longer enjoy the use of your home, you

:21:37. > :21:45.cannot put out your laundry or even open your windows. You invest a lot

:21:45. > :21:47.of money, you expect to be able to use it. It has been awful.

:21:47. > :21:50.Northern Ireland what to say they are carrying out investigations,

:21:51. > :21:56.but they do not know what the source of the smell is or even if

:21:56. > :22:00.they are responsible. You are a councillor here. What have Northern

:22:00. > :22:04.Ireland what had been saying? spoke to them yesterday, and they

:22:04. > :22:09.told me they do not know what the source of the smell is. They have

:22:09. > :22:11.sent out engineers and scientists to investigate. I am also meeting

:22:11. > :22:18.the water service at a meeting tomorrow, and I will be asking them

:22:21. > :22:25.Ireland Water is carrying out further investigations. Residents

:22:25. > :22:31.say the smellers mile today. I have to say that for me, it is very

:22:31. > :22:38.strong. It is rotten eggs, sulphur, methane. It is pungent, and it is

:22:38. > :22:44.certainly not pleasant. You would not even be able to open

:22:44. > :22:47.the window! Sport, and Stephen Ferris has made the Ireland subs

:22:47. > :22:51.bench for this Saturday's World Cup warm-up game against France in

:22:51. > :22:56.Dublin. He has not played since January and is one of four Ulster

:22:56. > :23:01.players likely to feature in the match. It is a last chance to

:23:01. > :23:04.impress David -- Declan Kidney, who will name his squad on Monday.

:23:04. > :23:11.The French trained at their County Meath hotel this morning, with

:23:11. > :23:17.almost an entirely different team. They had been 13 changes made for

:23:17. > :23:21.Saturday's game against Ireland. But this time, the French face a

:23:21. > :23:26.strong Ireland team, possibly the strongest available to Declan

:23:26. > :23:30.Kidney. And that side was announced here earlier today. 33 players have

:23:30. > :23:37.been tried and tested throughout the summer series. But with two

:23:37. > :23:42.defeats, pressure is beginning to mount on the Allen's team. If we

:23:42. > :23:47.did not win a warm-up game, it would not be ideal. But it is not

:23:47. > :23:50.the World Cup. That is in three weeks time. So let us try and look

:23:50. > :23:54.at having as good a performance as possible, and hopefully the result

:23:54. > :23:58.that we are looking for, and I think we are going into the game

:23:58. > :24:03.with an attitude off really wanting to win this game, and we will see

:24:03. > :24:06.what happens. Rory Best and Andrew Trimble are for Ireland. Stephen

:24:06. > :24:11.Ferris is listed among the substitutes, and Declan Kidney is

:24:11. > :24:14.hopeful he will not feature against the French. He has been going well

:24:14. > :24:24.in training, but we said at the start that we would not wish anyone

:24:24. > :24:24.

:24:24. > :24:29.back. Play two, lose two, that is the current record for Ireland in

:24:29. > :24:33.the summer series. And was one month to go until the World Cup,

:24:33. > :24:36.this is the time for winning. The Director of Portadown Football

:24:36. > :24:40.Club has resigned after shareholders rejected his proposals

:24:40. > :24:44.to help tackle the club's debts. Yalcin Chew-book had wanted to

:24:44. > :24:48.become chairman and was offering major investment. Austin

:24:48. > :24:55.O'Callaghan and is with us. What is the financial picture? They have

:24:55. > :24:59.substantial debt, �1.1 million, much of it is to do with the

:24:59. > :25:03.redevelopment of the grounds, Shamrock Park. And they are trying

:25:03. > :25:07.to get out of that debt. A local businessman, Yalcin Chew-book, on

:25:07. > :25:10.the left of this picture, he has been involved with the club for

:25:10. > :25:15.around 18 months. He came with the proposal to bring investment to the

:25:15. > :25:19.club, which involved an link-up with at Football Club in Turkey.

:25:19. > :25:23.But that offer was rejected on two occasions by the club's

:25:23. > :25:26.shareholders. Some of them were concerned about the nature of the

:25:26. > :25:31.investment. So this evening, they have announced they are dropping

:25:31. > :25:38.their plans. Where does that leave the club? At in a financial

:25:38. > :25:42.quandary. �1.1 million is not small beer. They are appointing a in

:25:42. > :25:45.alternative board to try to deal with the immediate future. On the

:25:45. > :25:48.pitch they are doing well, but there is no obvious solution to the

:25:48. > :25:54.there is no obvious solution to the financial problems. Let's take a

:25:54. > :25:57.look at the weather. It was not as bad Day Today, the kind of day that

:25:57. > :26:04.would take you outdoors for a stroll on the beach for a walk in

:26:04. > :26:09.the park. There are some great photographs, the deer were enjoying

:26:09. > :26:14.the sunshine. As for today, the sunshine it gradually disappear

:26:14. > :26:19.during the course of the afternoon. And for this evening, it will be

:26:19. > :26:26.largely cloudy. The odd bright spot breaking through. But it is largely

:26:26. > :26:31.dry as well. And it will stay dry overnight. But with the cloud

:26:31. > :26:34.melting away and a light breeze, another chilly night. Temperatures

:26:34. > :26:40.dropping to four or five degrees Celsius, perhaps even lower in

:26:40. > :26:44.rural areas. And there is the chance of the odd shower. At a

:26:44. > :26:49.glance, tomorrow looks very similar to today's. I day of sunshine and

:26:49. > :26:52.showers. But there will be subtle differences. It will not be as

:26:52. > :26:57.sunny tomorrow morning as it was this morning, there will be patchy

:26:57. > :27:01.cloud to greet us first thing. So we are talking bright rather than

:27:01. > :27:05.some to. And a few showers rolling around as well. They will get going

:27:05. > :27:09.quite early in the day. So some showers during the course of the

:27:09. > :27:14.morning, and they will continue during the course of the afternoon.

:27:14. > :27:20.But it should also brighten up, sunshine will have temperatures to

:27:20. > :27:25.around 16 or 17 degrees Celsius. Most of the shares will be light in

:27:25. > :27:30.nature. So it will not feel too bad. The breeze will be quite light. The

:27:30. > :27:33.showers will take -- fade away as we head through the day. So by the

:27:33. > :27:37.time we get into the evening, most of them should be gone and it

:27:37. > :27:42.should be a largely dry story. A little bit of sunshine in most

:27:42. > :27:46.places to finish the day. On Friday, a bright start, but you cannot

:27:46. > :27:50.depend on that day. The clouds will pick up, the breeze will pick up,

:27:50. > :27:56.and will -- it will not be long before you see rain pushing in from

:27:56. > :28:01.the West. Sunshine and showers for the weekend.

:28:01. > :28:06.A reminder of our main stories. Unemployment has hit a 14 year high,

:28:06. > :28:11.especially affecting young people. Nearly one in five cannot get a job.
