:00:00. > :00:00.Australia. More about the weather where you are on-line.
:00:00. > :00:08.Hello and welcome to South Today from Oxford. In tonight's programme:
:00:09. > :00:11.Under water, and tens of thousands of pounds out of pocket. The farmer
:00:12. > :00:16.who says the Environment Agency didn't do enough to protect his land
:00:17. > :00:22.from the floods. Also tonight: Would it be charity or
:00:23. > :00:26.simply another source of funding? The council considering asking for
:00:27. > :00:29.donations to help pay services. And, later on, and the clock makers
:00:30. > :00:43.turned car manufacturers who changed rural life in the South.
:00:44. > :00:46.Farmers in Oxfordshire say the Environment Agency hasn't done
:00:47. > :00:52.enough to protect them from flooding. Thousands of acres of
:00:53. > :00:55.farmland are still under water. The Environment Agency says it has spent
:00:56. > :01:02.millions on maintenance and has more planned. Farmers say that's not
:01:03. > :01:09.enough. Tom Turrell reports. Not a lake, but Otmoor Farm on the
:01:10. > :01:16.edge of Oxford. You can see my land is completely under water. We have
:01:17. > :01:20.been for the last five weeks now. Believe it or not, water levels are
:01:21. > :01:23.actually falling here, but with 200 acres still largely submerged, the
:01:24. > :01:27.farmer says it's ruining his grassland, leaving him with nothing
:01:28. > :01:38.to feed his animals. Worse still, he believes it could have been avoided.
:01:39. > :01:44.I would have thought the Environment Agency have become too complacent
:01:45. > :01:50.and they don't keep the rivers up to scratch to how it was years ago,
:01:51. > :01:54.back in the 60s. Terry used to have more than 200 cattle, but he says
:01:55. > :01:57.with all the flooding he can only harvest enough hay to feed 50. But
:01:58. > :02:00.the Environment Agency insists they're spending ?45 million
:02:01. > :02:03.nationally on clearing the rivers to prevent flooding, but concede they
:02:04. > :02:08.do fill back up again as part of the natural process. As roads in towns
:02:09. > :02:11.and cities across our region reopen, it seems for parts of the
:02:12. > :02:19.countryside there could be a costly journey yet.
:02:20. > :02:22.If you had a bit of spare money, would you consider donating it to
:02:23. > :02:26.your local council? Oxfordshire County Council is looking at setting
:02:27. > :02:30.up a website to allow people to donate money to help it run
:02:31. > :02:35.services. It's facing cuts of ?93 million over the next four years.
:02:36. > :02:39.Helen Catt reports. Shoppers in Oxford spending their
:02:40. > :02:47.money in the January sales. But, would anyone here consider donating
:02:48. > :02:55.cash to the County Council? I probably wouldn't, no. We pay tax
:02:56. > :02:59.and rates, don't we. What is this donation business? I would, but it
:03:00. > :03:02.would depend on how the reporting would be done on the money that is
:03:03. > :03:08.collected. It was actually the Oxfordshire public who inspired this
:03:09. > :03:12.idea. At a series of public meetings in October, many people said they
:03:13. > :03:17.would pay more to protect services threatened by millions of pounds'
:03:18. > :03:19.worth of cuts. The idea behind projects like this is that lots of
:03:20. > :03:25.people give a little amount of money, and that adds up to a
:03:26. > :03:28.significant sum. If every council taxpayer in Oxfordshire gave 11p per
:03:29. > :03:32.day, the council would have enough to run its entire Fire Service.
:03:33. > :03:38.People would be able to decide where their money went. For example, you
:03:39. > :03:41.could donate ?63, the cost of fixing a pothole, for example, to the
:03:42. > :03:49.overall highways budget. I have had donations from the public, so there
:03:50. > :03:54.is a willingness for people to pay a bit more money. We are trying to
:03:55. > :03:57.provide people with a mechanism to pay more and see if it works. The
:03:58. > :04:01.council doesn't yet know how much it would cost to collect the money, as
:04:02. > :04:05.the idea is still at a very early stage.
:04:06. > :04:08.The new chairman of HS2, the high speed rail line that would cut
:04:09. > :04:11.through parts of Buckinghamshire, has pledged to deliver the project
:04:12. > :04:15.more cheaply. Sir David Higgins has told the BBC his priorities are to
:04:16. > :04:18.build the ?50 billion project more quickly. Critics argue costs are
:04:19. > :04:21.spiralling and that the line would damage the environment, but
:04:22. > :04:30.ministers believe HS2 will create jobs and boost the economy.
:04:31. > :04:35.Transportation is crucial for economic growth in the country, and
:04:36. > :04:39.also for rebalancing a very London centric economy. This amount of
:04:40. > :04:44.money that will be spent on HS2 is about the same as the amount of
:04:45. > :04:48.money we spent doing that period on the existing rail network. It is not
:04:49. > :04:52.a case of either or. The government says it will speed up the
:04:53. > :04:55.improvement work at a Community Hospital in Oxfordshire saved from
:04:56. > :04:59.closure by campaigners. Health bosses have given the go`ahead for
:05:00. > :05:05.an ?8.7 million refurbishment of talent hospital in Henley`on`Thames.
:05:06. > :05:09.I recognise that the decision lies with the NHS property services, but
:05:10. > :05:12.with the secretary of state join with me in using whatever influence
:05:13. > :05:16.we have two put pressure on them to get a move on? I have spoken to the
:05:17. > :05:20.honourable gentleman about this scheme, and it sounds excellent. We
:05:21. > :05:25.want to encourage it, working within the correct processes. The minister
:05:26. > :05:28.from the Department has agreed to meet with him to do everything we
:05:29. > :05:31.can to speed it along. A Greenpeace activist who was held
:05:32. > :05:34.in a Russian prison for two months says the experience hasn't deterred
:05:35. > :05:37.him from taking part in further protests. Phil Ball, from Chipping
:05:38. > :05:40.Norton, was among a group of 30 people facing seven years in jail
:05:41. > :05:44.for attempting to board a Russian`owned oil platform in the
:05:45. > :05:48.Arctic. All the charges have now been dropped. I asked him if he knew
:05:49. > :05:50.he was running the risk of going to prison by taking part in the
:05:51. > :05:55.process. There is always the risk of some
:05:56. > :06:01.imprisonment, but usually with these kinds of things, you would expect,
:06:02. > :06:05.and are best legal advice was that we would expect something like 48
:06:06. > :06:13.hours before being thrown out of the country with very minor charges, or
:06:14. > :06:18.just a slap on the wrist. We were carrying out a peaceful protest. But
:06:19. > :06:22.some activists were trying to board that oil platform, weren't they,
:06:23. > :06:30.which was a state owned oil company.... Yes, and it is
:06:31. > :06:35.justifiable when you look at what the oil company is trying to do in a
:06:36. > :06:39.pristine place like the Arctic. But people might say that if you are
:06:40. > :06:44.boarding somebody else's property, you run the risk of being arrested.
:06:45. > :06:50.But being arrested and being charged with piracy are very different
:06:51. > :06:57.things. We understood there was a possibility of being arrested, but
:06:58. > :07:02.15 years? Really? You were allowed home after an amnesty bill in Russia
:07:03. > :07:06.was passed. Do you think that is the only reason the charge was dropped?
:07:07. > :07:12.I think the Russian authorities found themselves in an embarrassing
:07:13. > :07:18.situation. It did not just shines a light on their corrupt judicial
:07:19. > :07:21.system, but the world got a look inside their presence through our
:07:22. > :07:26.eyes. That was something that they really wanted to end quickly.
:07:27. > :07:32.Especially with the Olympic Games coming up. That set the timetable
:07:33. > :07:37.and meant that they wanted to finish it as soon as they could. You have
:07:38. > :07:41.said you would do it again. Have your family, I guess, if you ever
:07:42. > :07:44.consider doing it because you were away for so long without any
:07:45. > :07:48.knowledge of when you would come home. I will carry on protesting
:07:49. > :07:54.about Arctic oil and climate change. I cannot not do so it would not be
:07:55. > :08:00.responsible for me to stop. But the issue of how it affects my family is
:08:01. > :08:04.something I take seriously, so I certainly won't be going to Russia
:08:05. > :08:07.again. Phil Ball, thank you. Helen Thompson from Long Wittenham
:08:08. > :08:10.died suddenly in December from a blood clot. She'd just set up a
:08:11. > :08:14.fundraising internet page to raise ?200 for typhoon victims in the
:08:15. > :08:17.Philippines. Since she died, over ?15,000 has now been donated.
:08:18. > :08:26.Charlotte Stacey went to meet her husband.
:08:27. > :08:31.Memories of happier times. James and his wife Helen spent months in
:08:32. > :08:34.Thailand in 2005, helping people rebuild their lives after the
:08:35. > :08:42.tsunami. It was part of a lifelong passion Alan Howard for helping
:08:43. > :08:47.others. Helen set up the web page before she passed away, trying to
:08:48. > :08:52.raise ?200 for the international volunteers for the Philippines, and
:08:53. > :08:58.basically, we posted a link on Facebook to her page after she
:08:59. > :09:05.passed away, and it has just gone crazy since. It is now approaching
:09:06. > :09:10.?16,000. The couple married last year after getting engaged at the
:09:11. > :09:12.Reading Festival. Then, just days before Christmas, Helen died
:09:13. > :09:17.unexpectedly from a blood clot on the brain. With donations to her
:09:18. > :09:24.just giving page now pouring in, James is hoping to continue the work
:09:25. > :09:28.that Helen started. I just need to spend my time doing things for her
:09:29. > :09:33.and in her memory. People can be helped through this disaster that
:09:34. > :09:40.has happened in my life. It is no consolation for me, but it is
:09:41. > :09:45.brilliant for other people. It is not going to make the pain any less,
:09:46. > :09:49.but it gives me a purpose to carry on doing things now. James plans to
:09:50. > :09:53.go to the Philippines later this year to see that the money is being
:09:54. > :09:57.spent as Helen would have wanted, and to keep inspiring people through
:09:58. > :10:01.her memory. That's all from me for the moment.
:10:02. > :10:03.I'll have the headlines at 8pm. Now more of today's stories with
:10:04. > :10:08.to operate in British waters. The ferry will be built in France and
:10:09. > :10:10.cost ?225 million. Still to come in this evening's
:10:11. > :10:16.South Today: AFC Bournemouth have their eye on
:10:17. > :10:21.the prize. Sally, we have got rain, we have got
:10:22. > :10:25.cup football, we have Liverpool waiting for the winners. Bournemouth
:10:26. > :10:29.against Burton Albion for a place in the fourth round of the FA Cup. Join
:10:30. > :10:36.with the sport later. `` join me for.
:10:37. > :10:41.There's an appeal for more people in the south to take on the role of a
:10:42. > :10:44."shared lives" carer. It's part of a scheme whereby vulnerable adults who
:10:45. > :10:47.might have gone into residential care live with people who take on
:10:48. > :10:50.some of the care roles needed. Southampton needs to double the
:10:51. > :10:55.number of shared lives carers on its books. Katy Austin has this report.
:10:56. > :11:00.You've heard of fostering and adoption for children, but where can
:11:01. > :11:03.vulnerable adults go? Some go to live in households where families
:11:04. > :11:07.help them to become more independent. This arrangement is
:11:08. > :11:10.called "shared lives" care, and Paul, who has Down's Syndrome and
:11:11. > :11:14.learning difficulties, lives with Kevin and Karen. It makes me really
:11:15. > :11:19.great and happy. Have you learned things here? Yes, I have. Do you
:11:20. > :11:25.think one day you will be able to live on your own? Yes, I could.
:11:26. > :11:29.Research by the council found that shared lives is much more suitable
:11:30. > :11:33.for many people than going into a residential home. It wants to expand
:11:34. > :11:36.the scheme to 100 more vulnerable adults, but there is a shortage of
:11:37. > :11:46.carers. 35 more are urgently needed in Southampton over the next two
:11:47. > :11:50.years. That will nearly double the amount that fulfil the role in the
:11:51. > :11:56.city, but is shared lives just NHS Cancer care done on the cheap? Not
:11:57. > :11:59.at all, it is all about being person focused, all about making the most
:12:00. > :12:06.of that person's skills and abilities, making it so that person
:12:07. > :12:12.can move forward with its own lives. Anyone over 21 can apply to
:12:13. > :12:16.the scheme and they do get financial help, but Kevin and Karen do not do
:12:17. > :12:21.it for the money. It's very rewarding. It is a rewarding role to
:12:22. > :12:25.play in the community. We get so much out of it seeing Paul smile.
:12:26. > :12:33.When he achieves something that he hasn't achieved before, it's a great
:12:34. > :12:41.sense that you've done good. Everyday tasks are now easier for
:12:42. > :12:45.Paul. Cooking, putting clothes on, everything. You have learned to do
:12:46. > :12:50.all those things which are Mark yes. The search continues to find more
:12:51. > :12:59.people with a space and time to make a difference.
:13:00. > :13:01.A Southampton school has closed temporarily after legionella
:13:02. > :13:04.bacteria was found in its water system. Mason Moore Primary School,
:13:05. > :13:07.in Millbrook, will be shut until Thursday while the water system is
:13:08. > :13:09.disinfected. Legionella bacteria can cause Legionnaires Disease, as well
:13:10. > :13:12.as other less`serious conditions. Southampton Council says the
:13:13. > :13:18.bacteria does not represent an immediate hazard.
:13:19. > :13:25.The traditional image of a military wife is holding back employers from
:13:26. > :13:28.taking them on as staff. That's according to one organisation set up
:13:29. > :13:31.to help army wives and husbands get into work. A Wiltshire based group
:13:32. > :13:34.says it's supported hundreds of clients who've been turned away for
:13:35. > :13:40.jobs, because potential bosses are concerned about their commitment and
:13:41. > :13:43.flexibility. Efforts are now being made to highlight military partners
:13:44. > :13:52.as a valuable resource. Poonam Bahal's been to meet one army wife
:13:53. > :13:55.in Aldershot. Working in a pharmacy, doing a job
:13:56. > :14:03.she loves, but for Michelle Taylor, getting here wasn't easy. Six months
:14:04. > :14:06.ago, she admits she would have taken any job after facing a number of
:14:07. > :14:09.rejections. She believes potential employers in the UK were put off by
:14:10. > :14:17.two things `her address and her status as a military wife. Not many
:14:18. > :14:20.jobs would even consider me, because I was part of the military and it is
:14:21. > :14:24.kind of off`putting, when you're trying and willing to work, and I've
:14:25. > :14:31.had good work experience, but that wasn't really good enough. Efforts
:14:32. > :14:34.are being made to highlight the benefits of employing military
:14:35. > :14:39.spouses, something Michelle's boss is fully aware of. We have had very
:14:40. > :14:42.positive experience, all of the stuff we have had, the ones who have
:14:43. > :14:45.relocated to other locations, we would take them back without any
:14:46. > :14:49.hesitation. Partners welcoming home returning troops. It's homecoming
:14:50. > :14:54.scenes like these that show the support role military spouses play.
:14:55. > :14:57.But one army wife from Wiltshire says although this is vital, she
:14:58. > :15:03.wants employers to recognise the group as a valuable pool of talent.
:15:04. > :15:06.It is amazing, really. We have criminologists, lawyers, and really
:15:07. > :15:10.skilled people who are finding it difficult to get a normal job and
:15:11. > :15:12.just to get into that employment space, mainly because most
:15:13. > :15:21.businesses see us as too transient to employ. We could be gone in two
:15:22. > :15:24.years. But what we say to them is look at the person you are
:15:25. > :15:31.employing, very adaptable, resource for the individual. From 20 16,000
:15:32. > :15:34.of military spouses will leave bases in Germany to come back to the UK.
:15:35. > :15:39.Many other more subtle in locations across the South, which means more
:15:40. > :15:42.potential job seekers. We are talking to big national
:15:43. > :15:45.organisations, so that when they do come back into those local
:15:46. > :15:48.garrisons, we can say, we all have these people ready for you to work.
:15:49. > :15:51.As Michelle dishes out the medicines, it seems getting this job
:15:52. > :15:58.has certainly had a healing effect on her. We're hard`working. Our
:15:59. > :16:01.husbands are known to work hard, so why are the wives not? It's nice.
:16:02. > :16:12.Just give someone a try. You never know. I could be the best staff
:16:13. > :16:14.you've ever had. Michelle Taylor ending that report
:16:15. > :16:17.by Poonam Bahal. Salisbury Cathedral has been
:16:18. > :16:27.provisionally awarded half a million pounds for a new exhibition to
:16:28. > :16:30.showcase its copy of Magna Carta. The document was originally drafted
:16:31. > :16:33.in 1215 and outlines many basic rights, including the principle that
:16:34. > :16:37.no`one is above the law. The cathedral has the best surviving
:16:38. > :16:39.example of the document, as Jo Kent reports.
:16:40. > :16:41.Magna Carta, or "great charter", has been described as the greatest
:16:42. > :16:46.constitutional document of all time, and has formed the basis of legal
:16:47. > :16:49.systems around the world. It was signed in 1215 at Runnymede by King
:16:50. > :16:52.John, and this here at Salisbury Cathedral is one of only four
:16:53. > :16:59.surviving copies of that original 1215 document. And it is said to be
:17:00. > :17:02.the best preserved. Now, to mark the 800th anniversary of Magna Carta,
:17:03. > :17:06.the cathedral is planning a new exhibition. We can talk to Canon
:17:07. > :17:11.Edward Probert, who is the acting dean here. You have been awarded
:17:12. > :17:14.half a million pounds of Lottery funding for this, haven't you? Just
:17:15. > :17:19.tell me about the new plans. We have. We will have a much bigger
:17:20. > :17:22.display than we have at the moment and it will be much more
:17:23. > :17:26.interactive, people will be able to engage with it much more readily. It
:17:27. > :17:29.will involve a wider part of the cathedral here, the cloisters as
:17:30. > :17:32.well as the chapterhouse, and it will go with a larger educational
:17:33. > :17:38.programme, which will engage people of all ages. You already have an
:17:39. > :17:42.exhibition here but this is about really bringing Magna Carta to a new
:17:43. > :17:46.audience. Yes, it is whole new audiences, which are international
:17:47. > :17:50.as well as British, and as I said before, all ages. It is a document
:17:51. > :17:53.which has a lively presence in all sorts of cultures besides our own
:17:54. > :17:57.and we want to help people understand that. Now, you have a bit
:17:58. > :18:01.of work to do before you get this money, haven't you? We do, we have
:18:02. > :18:04.to generate another ?200,000 of support, which we are confident of
:18:05. > :18:07.doing. We already have a major partner in Wilsons solicitors, and
:18:08. > :18:11.there will be others too, I have no doubt. And we need to demonstrate to
:18:12. > :18:16.the Lottery people that we have what it takes to do what we say we are
:18:17. > :18:20.going to do. Thank you very much. We will find out if they get that half
:18:21. > :18:23.a million pounds in June and, all being well, the new exhibition will
:18:24. > :18:29.be open for the 800th anniversary in February 2015.
:18:30. > :18:33.Yesterday, we showed you a remarkable electric car built on the
:18:34. > :18:35.Isle of Wight as part of a series by our transport correspondent Paul
:18:36. > :18:39.Clifton, looking at forgotten car makers in the south. Paul's here
:18:40. > :18:45.with me, and you've solved a little mystery.
:18:46. > :18:52.And it is quite close to home. This has been fascinating, it has been so
:18:53. > :18:59.absorbing. The last 15 years, I have had this picture on my wall at home
:19:00. > :19:04.and it shows the first bus to come to my village, it went past my front
:19:05. > :19:07.door. It was a really important occasion, it was the first person
:19:08. > :19:12.that people from my village could get to Salisbury and back again on
:19:13. > :19:17.market day, so it changed the nature of rue rove live, they turned it
:19:18. > :19:21.into a postcard. `` Vural I knew that cars had been built in
:19:22. > :19:23.Salisbury, but I didn't know the bus was as well.

:19:54. > :20:01.founded by the Burden brothers. Before cars, they made clocks. By
:20:02. > :20:06.1912, they were one of the city's biggest employers, with 150 men
:20:07. > :20:10.making cars. I think a lot of people are quite surprised about the fact
:20:11. > :20:14.that we had in Salisbury and industrial base in the nadir 19th
:20:15. > :20:19.and early 20th century. This one has twice narrowly avoided the
:20:20. > :20:24.scrapheap. It was originally down in Devon but by the 1940s, it ended up
:20:25. > :20:28.on a scrapheap. In the 50s, it was bought by a man called Mister Bond,
:20:29. > :20:31.who completely restored it. It then for a second time went out of use
:20:32. > :20:37.and ended up almost bricked up in a garage. Last year, it was bought by
:20:38. > :20:40.Salisbury Museum. The car has been lovingly restored, and the engine is
:20:41. > :20:43.original. But at the moment it doesn't actually work. But we are
:20:44. > :20:47.planning to restore it. There is a local chap who lovingly restored
:20:48. > :20:50.cars like this and he's going to be working on it the next year, so
:20:51. > :20:55.hopefully it will be back on the road. Scout made buses too. This one
:20:56. > :20:59.was the first charabanc from Shrewton on Salisbury Plain to
:21:00. > :21:01.market days in the city, carrying 20 passengers and changing previously
:21:02. > :21:05.remote rural life. This forgotten car will now come out for shows and
:21:06. > :21:08.festivals. The Scout company was wound up in 1921. Albert Burden went
:21:09. > :21:21.back to making clocks. And another great story from Paul
:21:22. > :21:23.tomorrow, when he is looking at a classic supercar which was built at
:21:24. > :21:26.Southampton airport. On to sport and a glamour tie with
:21:27. > :21:29.seven`time FA Cup winners Liverpool is waiting for the winners of
:21:30. > :21:33.tonight's match between Bournemouth and Burton Albion. The tie should
:21:34. > :21:37.have been played earlier this month but was postponed due to the
:21:38. > :21:42.weather. Tony's live at the Goldsands Stadium tonight and a good
:21:43. > :21:46.atmosphere is guaranteed, isn't it? This is lovely camaraderie between
:21:47. > :21:50.both sets of fans. It certainly is, yes. We say there
:21:51. > :21:55.is a football family, very much in evidence ahead of this FA Cup tie.
:21:56. > :22:00.We have got rain this evening but it is not looking too bad, should be
:22:01. > :22:02.all right, but ten days ago, just 90 minutes away from kick`off when the
:22:03. > :22:07.referee deemed the pitch waterlogged. The Burton fans had
:22:08. > :22:12.already come 150 miles down and had to go back, then they had to come
:22:13. > :22:16.back again for the rearranged game. So enter David Whitehead, who came
:22:17. > :22:20.up with the idea of raising the funds to bring them back on their
:22:21. > :22:25.coaches. What a win it proved to be. I know, unbelievable response. In no
:22:26. > :22:28.time at all, we smashed our target, which was originally 800. By the end
:22:29. > :22:36.of the day, we were up to nearly ?3000, enough to pay for America for
:22:37. > :22:40.coaches, fantastic. We've taken back `` where you taken aback by the
:22:41. > :22:44.support? We can see pictures of the Burton fans getting on the coaches.
:22:45. > :22:48.Football really rallied round. Absolutely, it wasn't just
:22:49. > :22:51.Bournemouth supporters. We had people coming from all sorts of
:22:52. > :22:55.clothes, full, Liverpool, Scunthorpe, Guy from Sweden,
:22:56. > :22:59.Denmark, all over the world, it was heart`warming, the whole response.
:23:00. > :23:04.Let's speak to the Burton Albion chairman Ben Robinson, a great
:23:05. > :23:09.gesture of your supporters? It is amazing, isn't it, what kindness. It
:23:10. > :23:12.has to be a first in football. I know in football, supporters take
:23:13. > :23:16.some stick from certain factions but this is an absolutely amazing
:23:17. > :23:23.gesture and a bit of history has been created, it all started before
:23:24. > :23:27.the Liverpool game was drawn and what is at stake there, and I have
:23:28. > :23:31.very fond memories of 2010, when Bournemouth got promotion, and what
:23:32. > :23:36.a very special day. And we were delighted to share their
:23:37. > :23:40.celebrations, the excitement and in the boardroom, the champagne was
:23:41. > :23:42.flowing. Supporters mingled on the pitch, the groundsman looked the
:23:43. > :23:47.other way and they gathered in front of the main stand for a great
:23:48. > :23:53.celebration. A lot of stake tonight. Chris Temple, any early headlines?
:23:54. > :23:57.Eddie Howe said he would not make any changes on the basis that he
:23:58. > :24:04.will play Liverpool, but has made five changes, but they were regulars
:24:05. > :24:07.at the start of the season. Elsewhere tonight, Oxford will hope
:24:08. > :24:11.to play their tie with Charlton at the third time of asking. The pitch
:24:12. > :24:13.at the Valley has been unplayable for the past ten days but passed a
:24:14. > :24:17.pitch inspection. MK Dons' home tie with Wigan is a
:24:18. > :24:21.replay after they held the holders to a 3`3 draw in the north`west.
:24:22. > :24:24.And in League One, Swindon are at Stevenage. Full commentary of all
:24:25. > :24:27.those games is on BBC Local radio. The Burton Albion fans have actually
:24:28. > :24:30.made a banner, which they are going to parade here before the game, and
:24:31. > :24:33.it is going to have the crest of both clubs at each end and in the
:24:34. > :24:36.middle, it will say" Thank you, Cherries fans" . Football is the
:24:37. > :24:40.winner, we always say, but the winner tonight gets Liverpool, so so
:24:41. > :24:43.much at stake and fingers crossed, from Bournemouth perspective that
:24:44. > :24:47.is, that they will be hosting the Anfield club in the fourth round.
:24:48. > :24:51.Tony, thank you, that is a wonderful story.
:24:52. > :24:57.We will be watching that must the sofa, next week, won't we?
:24:58. > :25:03.I think he will shave it off. A glorious day today.
:25:04. > :25:07.Absolutely, frosty start, but we do have Dawn over the Needles from
:25:08. > :25:08.Friars Cliff Beach in Mudeford by Julie Anne.
:25:09. > :25:12.Alberto Ferrone from Swanmore in Hampshire took this close up of a
:25:13. > :25:14.robin in the sunshine today. And Trevor Darling photographed Hole
:25:15. > :25:20.Punch Clouds over Emsworth Harbour. They are a rare form of cloud and
:25:21. > :25:21.their formation is very complex. Rain in the
:25:22. > :25:23.their formation is very complex. Rain in forecast overnight tonight,
:25:24. > :25:26.it could be heavy at times, it will become light and patchy as we had
:25:27. > :25:30.through the course of the night and then maybe some hilltop missed and
:25:31. > :25:34.some fog to be had as well. So that rain band will gradually ease its
:25:35. > :25:44.way eastwards, and following it, some dry up periods that Wiltshire
:25:45. > :25:48.later on, so we were out the frost. Lows of three to six Celsius. That
:25:49. > :25:52.rain band will stay with us on and off but despite the rain, we will
:25:53. > :25:55.have warm air move up from Spain and France, so a fairly mild day
:25:56. > :26:01.tomorrow, temperatures 3`4d above what they should be at this time of
:26:02. > :26:04.year. Certainly a damp day tomorrow, with that rain band easing its way
:26:05. > :26:07.eastwards through the course of the day. The rain could become quite
:26:08. > :26:11.heavy during the afternoon period, even with a bit of Thunder mixed in
:26:12. > :26:15.and some hail, sunlight and patchy rain initially but turning heavier
:26:16. > :26:18.jeering the afternoon and the wind is brisk from the south of the
:26:19. > :26:25.south`west. We are expecting highs tomorrow of 10`11dC. Normally at
:26:26. > :26:28.this time of year, we have a high of around seven Celsius. Overnight, the
:26:29. > :26:32.rain showers will continue, merging into longer spells of rain, possibly
:26:33. > :26:38.Thunder and hail mixed in, with temperatures falling to around 659
:26:39. > :26:43.Celsius, so another mild night to come, no frost on Thursday morning.
:26:44. > :26:46.Thursday, we are looking at a Sherry regime, which sets the theme for the
:26:47. > :26:50.rest of the week. No pressure is in charge of the weather, the winds
:26:51. > :26:54.circulating anticlockwise, so we see the weather coming in from the
:26:55. > :26:57.south`west. Showers coming in through the course of the day,
:26:58. > :27:01.perhaps hail and Thunder and the winds are brisk, you consider
:27:02. > :27:05.squeeze on the isobars. That is the theme on Friday and Saturday.
:27:06. > :27:08.Tomorrow, a band of rain pushing through, heavier in the afternoon,
:27:09. > :27:12.light and patchy in the morning. Showers right through until Saturday
:27:13. > :27:16.and the wind will stay brisk, so a breezy week, all in all, with
:27:17. > :27:21.showers on and off. Rain at times tomorrow and as we head towards the
:27:22. > :27:24.weekend, it turns slightly cooler. Thank you. Every time I see the
:27:25. > :27:28.rain, I can't help but thinking of all of those poor people who have
:27:29. > :27:32.been flooded and the sodden ground just getting worse.
:27:33. > :27:35.It is just going to hold the drying out process. It is.
:27:36. > :27:39.That is it from us, more at 8pm and 10:25pm. We are back tomorrow at
:27:40. > :27:40.half past six as well, thank you for watching, enjoy yourselves.
:27:41. > :27:43.Good night.
