:05:38. > :05:41.looked a bit like this. When I saw Charles close to the

:05:42. > :05:46.first time in 15 years it w`s absolutely wonderful. I just

:05:47. > :05:52.couldn't believe it could ever happen. Even though he is 94, he

:05:53. > :05:56.still hasn't got any wrinklds. Three months after her oper`tion,

:05:57. > :06:00.she can watch TV, read, and has been able to see her great`grandchildren

:06:01. > :06:03.for the first time. Life will be very much easidr, and

:06:04. > :06:06.it will be nice for her to say all the great`grandchildren and the

:06:07. > :06:11.grandchildren and all the f`mily, because up to now she just hasn t

:06:12. > :06:16.been able to recognise faces at all.

:06:51. > :06:58.see the man she married a 70 years ago. Back frost free night with mild

:06:59. > :07:05.temperatures, we are looking at temperatures dropping to around five

:07:06. > :07:09.or six Celsius. Most places will be dry but cloudy.

:07:10. > :07:13.Cloudy to start the day tomorrow. We hold on to the cloud cover for much

:07:14. > :07:19.of the day. I Briggs arrangdr in the afternoon. Light and patchy, not

:07:20. > :07:24.amounting to too much. Tempdratures despite the cloud cover will reach

:07:25. > :07:30.nine or 10 Celsius. Unsettldd weather tomorrow will remain through

:07:53. > :07:56.across the whole of the UK. Yes things are settling down. You may

:07:57. > :08:00.have spotted, though, that says Monday, so we have a little way to

:08:01. > :08:05.go yet. We have some rain in the forecast. Not so much in the area

:08:06. > :08:10.suffering from flooding up to now but in northern parts of the UK

:08:11. > :08:11.it's been a wet day for a western Scotland and more to come
