:00:00. > :00:08.Hello, and welcome to South Today from Oxford. In tonight's programme:
:00:09. > :00:12.The ?4 million plan to provide housing for the homeless. It could
:00:13. > :00:16.mean people like Blake get a permanent roof over their heads.
:00:17. > :00:19.Elsewhere, though, residents are worried they could lose their home
:00:20. > :00:23.of 18 years, as they're told they'll have to move out to make way for
:00:24. > :00:26.housing development. Also in tonight's programme:
:00:27. > :00:29.Separated from their mother in the floods. The young otters now being
:00:30. > :00:36.reared at a wildlife hospital in Buckinghamshire.
:00:37. > :00:38.And later on: the real story behind the reunion between the prisoner of
:00:39. > :00:55.war and the captor who tortured him. Good evening. A ?4 million scheme to
:00:56. > :00:58.tackle homelessness has been announced in Milton Keynes.
:00:59. > :01:02.Officials there are taking the unusual step of buying 40 homes,
:01:03. > :01:07.which are currently for sale on the open market to rent out. Last year,
:01:08. > :01:10.the BBC revealed how Milton Keynes Council had the country's worst
:01:11. > :01:14.record for families living illegally in bed and breakfasts outside
:01:15. > :01:17.London. Jessica Cooper has been following this story and joins me
:01:18. > :01:19.now. Jessica, how do these figures compare to other parts of our
:01:20. > :01:23.region? Facing a housing shortage isn't just
:01:24. > :01:26.a problem in Milton Keynes. The latest figures from the councils who
:01:27. > :01:30.responded show in Swindon 203 households are in temporary
:01:31. > :01:35.accommodation. Five single people are living in B 52 households
:01:36. > :01:39.are in the same situation in South Oxfordshire and the Vale of White
:01:40. > :01:46.Horse, 19 are staying in B or hotels. And in Aylesbury, 54
:01:47. > :01:52.families and 13 single people are in temporary accommodation, but the
:01:53. > :01:55.council say they don't use B In Milton Keynes, it's become common
:01:56. > :02:02.practice, but now the council's trying to change that.
:02:03. > :02:12.Home, sweet home for Trooper and 20 other people. Every night, this
:02:13. > :02:18.hostel is full. It's hard work if you got no friends and no family and
:02:19. > :02:22.here on the street. At this time of year, it is hard for anybody to be
:02:23. > :02:26.on the street. So the council's planning to buy homes on the open
:02:27. > :02:32.market to help people most in need. I think it should have been done a
:02:33. > :02:35.long time ago. I don't think Milton Keynes Council realised the amount
:02:36. > :02:42.of people who are homeless. They should have more hostels and houses.
:02:43. > :02:45.It would take a lot of homeless people off the streets. But some
:02:46. > :02:59.question whether 40 homes will Milton Keynes has had an ongoing
:03:00. > :03:06.problem with a shortage of housing. Now, the council wants to spend ?4
:03:07. > :03:10.million buying 40 properties for the homeless. It makes a lot of sense
:03:11. > :03:13.because it allows us to make a difference very quickly within six
:03:14. > :03:30.months to our bed`and`breakfast numbers. I think it will solve the
:03:31. > :03:33.situation the council is in right now but give it another two or three
:03:34. > :03:39.years and those homes will be occupied and I would imagine they
:03:40. > :03:45.will be needed again. This is typically the sort of property the
:03:46. > :03:51.council is looking to acquire. It sounds like quite a lot if you're
:03:52. > :03:59.not used to buying 40 properties in one go but to acquire 40 properties
:04:00. > :04:02.is not a tall ask. If plans are approved, buying could start by the
:04:03. > :04:06.end of next month. And next week, for the first time in over 15 years,
:04:07. > :04:08.the council will start building new council houses. Jessica Cooper, BBC
:04:09. > :04:11.South Today. Jessica, at the moment, this is just
:04:12. > :04:15.an idea, isn't it? Yes, the scheme has yet to be agreed
:04:16. > :04:19.by the council. But we are told that could happen next month. Then the
:04:20. > :04:22.plan would see the homes to be bought quite quickly, with the aim
:04:23. > :04:30.of getting people out of B within six months. But the council's not
:04:31. > :04:33.the first to do this. Last year, Oxford City Council agreed to do
:04:34. > :04:36.something similar. In August, they had 120 people or families living in
:04:37. > :04:39.temporary accommodation. They announced they'd spend ?10 million
:04:40. > :04:54.buying around 55 properties to rent to the homeless. We have been told
:04:55. > :05:07.that so far none of that money has been spent, it simply set aside.
:05:08. > :05:10.Next: the planning minister Nick Boles has launched a scathing attack
:05:11. > :05:12.on a controversial housing development next to Oxford's Port
:05:13. > :05:15.Meadow, claiming the university should apologise for its
:05:16. > :05:17.construction. He's been visiting the site with campaigners this afternoon
:05:18. > :05:21.alongside local MP Nicola Blackwood. An independent report last year
:05:22. > :05:24.found the Council did meet its legal requirements when it consulted on
:05:25. > :05:30.the project. But the minister has told the BBC he's not impressed. I
:05:31. > :05:36.have to say that nothing quite prepares you for the awfulness of it
:05:37. > :05:44.until you see it in situ. It is as if someone had built the maze prison
:05:45. > :05:47.in Oxfordshire. It is one of the worst examples of design I have seen
:05:48. > :05:51.in the year and a half as planning Minister. The process the City
:05:52. > :05:55.Council followed as one of the worst examples of the planning process I
:05:56. > :05:58.have heard about. Plans to build a ?35 million science
:05:59. > :06:01.and innovation centre next to Oxford's castle mound have been
:06:02. > :06:05.scrapped. It was hoped the Norman Foster designed centre ` called The
:06:06. > :06:07.Magnet ` would have been a landmark building, attracting 150,000
:06:08. > :06:11.visitors a year. But the project faced opposition from heritage
:06:12. > :06:13.groups. Science Oxford, the charity behind the scheme, says planning
:06:14. > :06:18.restrictions and other factors have led to the decision not to go ahead
:06:19. > :06:22.with it. People living on a former RAF base
:06:23. > :06:25.near Bicester are worried they're about to lose their homes, and their
:06:26. > :06:28.community. Developers want to refurbish their properties as part
:06:29. > :06:33.of plans to build hundreds of homes at Upper Heyford. The tenants, some
:06:34. > :06:36.of whom have lived there for 18 years, will have to move out once
:06:37. > :06:40.the work starts. They say they won't be able to move back because, once
:06:41. > :06:44.the houses have been renovated and put up for sale, they won't be able
:06:45. > :06:50.to afford to buy them. Here's Adina Campbell.
:06:51. > :06:56.Enjoying a lunchtime play with their dog. For this couple, this could
:06:57. > :07:00.soon be one of the last moments they spent time in their garden. Over
:07:01. > :07:04.Christmas, they got a letter from their landlord, who happens to be a
:07:05. > :07:09.housing developer with big refurbishment plans for just over
:07:10. > :07:14.300 homes in Upper Heyford. It means leaving the place they have called
:07:15. > :07:20.home for 18 years. This community has built up over a long time. When
:07:21. > :07:24.we are down we call into each other and have a glass of wine. It is a
:07:25. > :07:29.lovely place to live. We are so happy here. The housing developer
:07:30. > :07:35.hopes to start the first phase of its 10`year plan here in this small
:07:36. > :07:39.community. There are nearly 30 properties here and residents said
:07:40. > :07:46.they could be and in `` handed eviction notice as early as next
:07:47. > :07:50.month. They will have the option to buy the properties after renovation
:07:51. > :07:59.but many feel they would be priced out. The idea of moving everyone out
:08:00. > :08:06.and refurbishing and selling off the houses, because we can't afford
:08:07. > :08:09.them, it is terrible. The housing developer says they need to
:08:10. > :08:18.modernise and create sustainable homes for a better future. We are
:08:19. > :08:23.going to get people into the housing market. We want to speak to people
:08:24. > :08:26.one`to`one and understand what the circumstances are, find them an
:08:27. > :08:33.option to move into before we serve notice. It has also promised to pay
:08:34. > :08:36.for some removal costs and say tenants will not be served notice
:08:37. > :08:41.until an affordable alternative is available.
:08:42. > :08:44.A consultation on the high`speed rail bill for HS2 is to be extended
:08:45. > :08:47.until mid`February because of what are being called "errors and
:08:48. > :08:50.delays". It's after nearly 900 pages of an environmental statement were
:08:51. > :08:54.found to be missing. Parliamentary insiders say that's likely to mean
:08:55. > :08:57.MPs won't get to debate the HS2 bill until the end of March. It comes as
:08:58. > :09:00.Buckinghamshire County Councillors have today voted unanimously to
:09:01. > :09:06.oppose the project at the next stage of the process.
:09:07. > :09:09.Police are appealing for news of a woman who's gone missing from
:09:10. > :09:13.Eynsham. Jacqueline Gulliford was last seen about 7:30 on Tuesday
:09:14. > :09:15.morning when she left her home. Police say they're becoming
:09:16. > :09:19.increasingly concerned for her welfare.
:09:20. > :09:23.The floods haven't just affected people and property, they've caused
:09:24. > :09:26.problems for wildlife too. Over the last fortnight, an animal hospital
:09:27. > :09:29.in Buckinghamshire has had to take in several animals who've been
:09:30. > :09:39.orphaned or left homeless by the floods. Charlotte Stacey reports.
:09:40. > :09:43.Cloud is only six weeks old and still needs milk to survive. She was
:09:44. > :09:47.found on a road ten days ago with her sister and they were brought to
:09:48. > :09:51.this wildlife Hospital in Buckinghamshire. It is not they had
:09:52. > :09:57.been separated from their mother by the floods. They're doing really
:09:58. > :10:02.well since they came in. They were a bit run down but they have perked up
:10:03. > :10:08.and we have weighed them regularly and they have put on weight and are
:10:09. > :10:13.doing very well. We are working on rearing the little one on to fish.
:10:14. > :10:17.For the moment, they are enjoying a comfortable home and regular supply
:10:18. > :10:23.of food. But they're not the only flood victims. This badger sett was
:10:24. > :10:28.so waterlogged he is staying here until it dries out. The floods have
:10:29. > :10:33.hit the region heart. Many natural habitats are still under water, with
:10:34. > :10:42.food sources submerged and animals often. Long`term, it will affect
:10:43. > :10:48.wildlife but we don't know how badly. Some animals live on
:10:49. > :10:53.earthworms. Are there forms drowning? We don't know. This could
:10:54. > :11:00.have a serious effect on them. Things are looking brighter for
:11:01. > :11:05.these otters who will stay here for one year before they're ready to go
:11:06. > :11:09.back into the wild. Two brothers, who are both serving
:11:10. > :11:12.in the RAF in Oxfordshire, have been selected for the Great Britain wake
:11:13. > :11:15.boarding team. Corporals Ross and Richard Phillips, who are twins, are
:11:16. > :11:19.based at Benson and Brize Norton. They'll be competing in the upcoming
:11:20. > :11:23.European championships. Both only took up the sport five years ago and
:11:24. > :11:32.admit there's always been a sibling rivalry.
:11:33. > :11:39.We used to go down on a mountain bike and from there we have always
:11:40. > :11:43.competed. It is just natural to us that we keep competing, more so
:11:44. > :11:49.against each other than anything else. One day I could be better, and
:11:50. > :11:55.other day it could be my brother. It depends on who is having a good day.
:11:56. > :11:58.That's all from me for the moment. I'll have the headlines at 8pm and a
:11:59. > :12:00.full bulletin at 10:25pm. Now, more of today's stories with Sally
:12:01. > :12:06.Taylor. keeps me in touch with people. I
:12:07. > :12:10.value the friendships there. Still to come: We reveal the actual
:12:11. > :12:19.moment a prisoner and his torturer met, which has been made into a
:12:20. > :12:23.major film. When you've suffered a spinal
:12:24. > :12:27.injury, it can often mean months if not years of rehabilitation inside a
:12:28. > :12:30.hospital. It can be a very lonely and depressing time due to the
:12:31. > :12:34.isolation patients can suddenly find themselves in. That's about to
:12:35. > :12:39.change thanks to the arrival of a specially`adapted mini bus at a
:12:40. > :12:42.spinal unit in Salisbury. It's hoped scores of people will find a new
:12:43. > :12:46.lease of life allowing them to make safe trips outside the hospital, all
:12:47. > :12:57.of which plays a big part in their recovery.
:12:58. > :13:02.This woman's life changed in August last year, a previous car accident
:13:03. > :13:08.precipitated a spinal injury which caused paralysis. The corridors of
:13:09. > :13:12.the spinal treatment centres have become her home for the past four
:13:13. > :13:16.months. The television have frequent contact with the outside world. A
:13:17. > :13:22.specially adapted bus is about to change her life. It means freedom.
:13:23. > :13:28.It means we can go out and do normal things. Even if it is taking us to
:13:29. > :13:35.the cinema or further afield, we can go to the theatre in Southampton. It
:13:36. > :13:40.is a ticket to freedom. Up until now patients have had to rely on local
:13:41. > :13:45.taxi firms to take them out on short trips accompanied by a carer. This
:13:46. > :13:49.vehicle will allow a group of them to travel together. It has the
:13:50. > :13:55.thumbs up from patients. It is very good to get out if you are in here
:13:56. > :14:02.for weeks or months. It gets very frustrating. It's not only knocks
:14:03. > :14:07.you physically, it knocks you emotionally and mentally, and
:14:08. > :14:13.hopefully the bus will help people get back out into the real world. It
:14:14. > :14:21.is getting out on little adventures like this that help you to rebuild
:14:22. > :14:24.your life. It all starts with being able to leave hospital and go into
:14:25. > :14:31.the wider world and realise that life was on. A change is as good as
:14:32. > :14:34.the rest and with events such as the Chelsea Flower Show and a rugby
:14:35. > :14:38.match at Twickenham, the road to recovery has only just begun.
:14:39. > :14:42.A developer that wants to build 180 homes on the site of an old school
:14:43. > :14:45.in Reading is mounting a legal challenge against the government. A
:14:46. > :14:49.planning inspector refused permission for Taylor Wimpey to
:14:50. > :14:52.build on the old Elvian site, where local people have been campaigning
:14:53. > :14:55.for a new free school. But Taylor Wimpey is challenging the decision,
:14:56. > :15:00.as it maintains Elvian is a viable site for much needed new homes.
:15:01. > :15:03.Councillors have accused the developer of trying to ride a coach
:15:04. > :15:08.and horses through local planning policies.
:15:09. > :15:12.It's one of the most important Bronze Age and Iron Age finds in the
:15:13. > :15:14.country. The hoard of ancient artefacts, excavated by
:15:15. > :15:19.archaeologists in Tisbury in Wiltshire, is being cleaned up ready
:15:20. > :15:23.for its first public appearance. The rare collection will be displayed in
:15:24. > :15:32.a new gallery at the Salisbury and South Wiltshire Museum this Spring.
:15:33. > :15:43.With each scrape, the tools of today are unearthing the tools of the
:15:44. > :15:50.past. The objects being cleaned make up 114 artefacts found outside
:15:51. > :15:56.Salisbury. Part of theirs is this bracelet and a spearhead that was
:15:57. > :15:59.found completely intact. Cleaning and restoring them to their original
:16:00. > :16:04.form is a painstaking process. It takes hours for each item. We use
:16:05. > :16:09.quite a few dental and doctors' tools. With the skull all I will be
:16:10. > :16:15.removing the soil layer at the top, anything that might disguise the
:16:16. > :16:20.object itself. We use the microscope to make sure we do not make any
:16:21. > :16:23.damage to the object. We want to keep it as intact as possible.
:16:24. > :16:26.What's interesting is this hoard contains what would have been
:16:27. > :16:35.ancient artefacts at their time of burial. The objects date from 1000
:16:36. > :16:39.years BC to 800 years AD. It was almost like burying a museum
:16:40. > :16:43.collection back in history. It is incredibly exciting to have objects
:16:44. > :16:50.that have not been touched for thousands of years and, out of the
:16:51. > :16:54.ground and to have them in the museum, I can barely contain my
:16:55. > :17:01.excitement. It is a fantastic opportunity to excavate a whole or.
:17:02. > :17:04.Every time we lifted one object up we were red with a group of objects
:17:05. > :17:17.underneath. The artefacts have been unveiled, but the story behind them
:17:18. > :17:24.remains a mystery. It will be interesting when they go
:17:25. > :17:33.on display. Big news today, but Pochettino
:17:34. > :17:38.saying he is dear. `` staying. No person is ever bigger than one
:17:39. > :17:44.individual club. A lot of worry over the past 24 hours about whether
:17:45. > :17:47.something would fall apart. They have to move quickly and get
:17:48. > :17:50.something sorted out and they have to resolve that but there is no
:17:51. > :17:58.reason why the club cannot keep going. Nicola Cortese a was a
:17:59. > :18:04.polarising figure. A very good assessment from a former manager. He
:18:05. > :18:14.was the one who draws the club forward and the one who was making
:18:15. > :18:20.the decisions. I think he did an excellent job from a financial point
:18:21. > :18:23.of view but on the downside it lost its soul. I do not think he cared
:18:24. > :18:29.too much about the tradition or history of football club and I think
:18:30. > :18:33.a lot of people, it upset a lot of people.
:18:34. > :18:35.Brighton are talking to Bournemouth's top scorer Lewis
:18:36. > :18:38.Grabban after Albion triggered a clause in his contract by bidding
:18:39. > :18:43.?1.1 million for him. Grabban's now discussing personal terms.
:18:44. > :18:46.Now, over the past year we've reported the continuing success of
:18:47. > :18:49.Portsmouth boxer Ebonie Jones. The Charter Academy pupil is already a
:18:50. > :18:53.European boxing champion in the 50 kilo class. And last week, fighting
:18:54. > :18:57.for England, she won the Nations Cup in Serbia. Ebonie and the Heart of
:18:58. > :19:00.Portsmouth Boxing Academy coach Quinton Shillingford came in earlier
:19:01. > :19:08.and I started by asking her about her latest success.
:19:09. > :19:14.I was a bit more nervous going to Serbia than other tournament because
:19:15. > :19:18.one of the biggest teams was Russia and they are one of the top teams
:19:19. > :19:22.for boxing and there was Kazakhstan and I came up against them as well
:19:23. > :19:31.so I had Kazakhstan in the semifinal. I came up against a
:19:32. > :19:36.Russian in the final. It was tough. Tough, but top of the podium. What a
:19:37. > :19:46.year. What is it down to? Her personal commitment and dedication.
:19:47. > :19:50.Also the coaches. Running out on Christmas Day. There was no respite.
:19:51. > :19:56.The dedication you need to get to the top. Great Britain boxing are
:19:57. > :20:06.watching now. You go up to Sheffield quite often. Yes. I see Nicola Adams
:20:07. > :20:10.up there. I was nervous to get into a spa but I still wanted to do it
:20:11. > :20:17.because she is the best in the world. I feel more confident. Does
:20:18. > :20:21.it make you think that the Olympics is the goal? Yes. I would love to do
:20:22. > :20:28.what she has achieved. I would love to get old. You are only 15, you
:20:29. > :20:32.have to balance this with your schoolwork, how do you manage to do
:20:33. > :20:37.it? It is hard balancing both because I want to put my efforts
:20:38. > :20:40.into boxing but the school are very supportive and they must believe in
:20:41. > :20:45.me and think I could be in the Olympics. They allow me time off for
:20:46. > :20:51.boxing and if I have to catch up they will help me. It is a
:20:52. > :20:58.tremendous story. How far can she go? She is still young. No one wants
:20:59. > :21:02.to load pressure, but she is certainly proving to be quite a
:21:03. > :21:10.talent. She has boxed for England these times and has got a medal
:21:11. > :21:15.every time. `` three times. Boxing is the sport you love. Yes.
:21:16. > :21:23.Hopefully there will be more girls wanting to do boxing. You are
:21:24. > :21:26.proving an inspiration to many. Good news today for their club mate,
:21:27. > :21:29.ABA heavyweight champion Greg Bridet. He's been called into Great
:21:30. > :21:33.Britain's podium squad for training next week. That means he's with the
:21:34. > :21:41.elite British boxers training for a place at the Rio Olympics.
:21:42. > :21:44.A lot of success coming out of that club.
:21:45. > :21:47.We have an extraordinary story of reconciliation for you between a
:21:48. > :21:51.British prisoner of war and the Japanese man who had helped torture
:21:52. > :21:54.him 50 years earlier. Eric Lomax was one of the so`called forgotten army,
:21:55. > :21:57.the thousands of troops treated like slaves as they built the Burma
:21:58. > :22:01.railway. Eric's search for his tormentor is the subject of the new
:22:02. > :22:05.film The Railway Man, starring Colin Firth. But the real`life meeting
:22:06. > :22:08.between the two was captured by a Hampshire film`maker for a
:22:09. > :22:15.documentary that's also being released.
:22:16. > :22:21.Imprisoned, tortured, mentally scarred. Allied prisoners of war in
:22:22. > :22:32.Thailand during World War Two. Set to work building the Burma railway.
:22:33. > :22:37.Among them was Eric Lomax. When a hosepipe full of water is poured
:22:38. > :22:41.over one's face and down 1's throat, there is not much an individual can
:22:42. > :22:46.do about it apart from weeks to be drowned. Eric survived, but the
:22:47. > :22:51.horror never left him. A combination of sleepless nights coupled with
:22:52. > :22:54.nightmares, flashbacks of various kinds, even in the daytime. In 1991
:22:55. > :23:00.Eric was interviewed by Hampshire film`maker Mike Finlason and let
:23:01. > :23:04.slip some startling news. He suddenly stopped and said, for 50
:23:05. > :23:09.years I have been trying to find the man who interrogated me at the
:23:10. > :23:18.time, he vanished after the war, I have phoned him. `` I have located
:23:19. > :23:21.him. Mike persuaded Eric to let him capture the reunion on film, and
:23:22. > :23:28.travelled with Eric and his wife Patti to Thailand. No`one knew what
:23:29. > :23:34.to expect. We did not do this lightly. I talked to psychiatrists.
:23:35. > :23:37.It took a long time to decide to meet him. This was the moment the
:23:38. > :23:51.tortured and the torturer finally met. To our amazement, he spoke to
:23:52. > :23:56.him in Japanese, we did not know he do any Japanese. When you were
:23:57. > :24:07.tortured, do any Japanese. When you were
:24:08. > :24:12.had been as damaged mentally by being the torturer as he had been
:24:13. > :24:16.being tortured. It was very moving. We were all very moved. Nagashe had
:24:17. > :24:18.evaded justice after the war. But as a Buddhist, he was desperate for
:24:19. > :24:22.Eric's forgiveness. Eventually, Eric said he could never forget but he
:24:23. > :24:26.would forgive him Both men have since died, but Eric lived long
:24:27. > :24:38.enough to see his story filmed for the big screen. Both ended up being
:24:39. > :24:48.happier people. He's played by Colin Firth. He described him as the blood
:24:49. > :24:50.brother. That is amazing. He said, there comes a time when they heating
:24:51. > :25:15.has to stop. `` the hating. Did it stopped raining today? We
:25:16. > :25:19.have had some information from the Met Office to say it has been wet
:25:20. > :25:22.and mild so far this winter. Sunny spells captured at Bournemouth
:25:23. > :25:25.Cliffs today by Tim. John took this photo of a squirrel sheltering from
:25:26. > :25:29.the showers in Dorchester Borough Gardens. And David took this photo
:25:30. > :25:36.of a rainbow at BBC Oxford. After taking the photo he was off to find
:25:37. > :25:42.the pot of gold. We see further rain and showers,
:25:43. > :25:50.unwonted rain falling. Longer spells of rain. The winds will ease during
:25:51. > :25:55.the second half of the night. There will be some drier periods but a lot
:25:56. > :26:04.of showers to be had. A mile right to come. `` mild night. There will
:26:05. > :26:12.be some bright spells and drier periods. The west will see the best
:26:13. > :26:17.of any brightness. Showers will continue through the afternoon but
:26:18. > :26:24.they will be few and far between. Temperatures 9`12. The showers
:26:25. > :26:27.continue tomorrow night. A few dry periods before a band of rain keeps
:26:28. > :26:32.in from the English Channel. The rain could be on the heavy side, but
:26:33. > :26:40.some drier periods as well as temperatures falling to 6`8. A start
:26:41. > :26:45.to the weekend but it not stay that way. Low pressure down towards the
:26:46. > :26:53.south of the UK, the winds coming up from the south, rainwater likely for
:26:54. > :26:58.Dorset and Wiltshire, drier conditions, more cloud for eastern
:26:59. > :27:04.areas. A pretty damp end to the weak and the showers will continue
:27:05. > :27:10.through the weekend. Tomorrow we are expecting heavy torrential downpours
:27:11. > :27:18.with thunderstorms. Saturday, longer spells of rain for western areas.
:27:19. > :27:21.Limited brightness. As we head towards Sunday it is probably the
:27:22. > :27:25.best day of the weekend to get out and about. Perhaps a frosty start
:27:26. > :27:35.which could linger for western areas. Monday should be slightly
:27:36. > :27:38.drier. Our next bulletin is at 10:25pm.
