Commons has been cleared of rape and other sex charges. Goodbye. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Good evening. Two high`profhle politicians have visited farms in | :00:00. | :00:58. | |
Oxfordshire today to see innovative methods being used that could be | :00:59. | :01:02. | |
taken up elsewhere. The Irish president Michael D Higgins was in | :01:03. | :01:09. | |
the area as part of a tour of Britain, before farming minhster | :01:10. | :01:14. | |
George Eustis visited a farl. At this farm, they pride thdmselves | :01:15. | :01:19. | |
on being forward thinkers. Today the farming minister heard dairx | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
products were sold not just in Oxfordshire but mainland Europe and | :01:23. | :01:27. | |
even America. There's huge potential for new markets in places lhke China | :01:28. | :01:31. | |
and India and British products are seen a premium product. Somd of the | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
best dairy product in the world There is a real opportunity there. | :01:37. | :01:41. | |
Fantastic cheeses, your guts, all sorts of dairy products. Thd visit | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
was seen as a welcome recognition for the farm's perseverance. We put | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
a lot of effort into farming organically. It isn't an easy way of | :01:51. | :01:56. | |
farming. We don't use sprays and fertilisers but we produce products | :01:57. | :02:01. | |
that we're very proud of. This farm wasn't the only one to welcome a | :02:02. | :02:05. | |
VIP. The President of Ireland is on a four`day state visit to Britain. | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
Michael D Higgins has come to this farm in Oxford to find out `bout | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
sustainable farming and also promote food made in his own countrx. This | :02:15. | :02:21. | |
initiative is one of several dotted around the world. The president who | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
grew up in a farm in County Clare, heard how the farm makes thd most of | :02:27. | :02:30. | |
the environment. We have a lot of wet flood meadows so we grow lots of | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
good grass. We try and find different ways of using that grass | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
so, for example, we feed our pigs on a silage `based diet. That's quite | :02:40. | :02:44. | |
unusual but means we are able to take the natural resource wd have | :02:45. | :02:50. | |
here with very little extra input. Oxygen's farms have had thehr | :02:51. | :02:53. | |
problems and many didn't make it through the recession. But for two | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
that are now flourishing, today there was something to crow about. | :02:58. | :03:10. | |
The mayor of Swindon has bedn found to have breached the Members' Code | :03:11. | :03:13. | |
of Conduct after allegedly calling disabled people "mongols". | :03:14. | :03:16. | |
Councillor Nick Martin has been told to make a public apology after an | :03:17. | :03:19. | |
assessment panel discussed his future. He's said to have m`de the | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
remark during a training session last year about the problems faced | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
by disabled adults. He accepts what he said was wrong and says he will | :03:26. | :03:28. | |
keep apologising. A man who beat in Aylesbury musician | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
to death has been told he m`y never leave a secure mental health | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
hospital. 53`year`old Mark Hospital died after the assault last January. | :03:35. | :03:40. | |
At Reading Crown Court todax, a 50`year`old man from Aylesbtry was | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
detained under a hospital order He can only be released by the | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
secretary of state or mental health tribunal. | :03:49. | :03:55. | |
Pupils with autism in Oxfordshire are being promised better access to | :03:56. | :03:58. | |
education with the opening of two of the first specialised schools in the | :03:59. | :04:02. | |
county. Although one is a private school, both will take pupils funded | :04:03. | :04:05. | |
by the local authority. Victoria Cook reports. | :04:06. | :04:07. | |
It's a building site at the moment but in September the doors will open | :04:08. | :04:10. | |
at LVS Oxford in Bembroke to children with autism and ass | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
burgers. It's the first timd a school in the county will c`ter to | :04:14. | :04:16. | |
these specific learning disabilities. `` and ass burgesses | :04:17. | :04:23. | |
drone. Children were forced to travel outside the county to get the | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
opportunities they needed. Ht will give children the opportunity to get | :04:28. | :04:32. | |
back into their community. We are helping them access new services. | :04:33. | :04:39. | |
Liam has just left the sistdr school to this. He credits the school's | :04:40. | :04:46. | |
teaching methods for cultiv`ting his career as a chef. You have short | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
lessons so you aren't concentrating for a long period of time. Xou | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
always have one teacher who will do all your lessons for you, which is | :04:57. | :05:03. | |
good. That isn't the only school opening this year. This sitd is | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
being converted into the McHntyre Academy, another specialist school | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
for children with autism. Education officials say they're not trying to | :05:14. | :05:17. | |
deliberately separate children and are keen to keep them mixed in a | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
classroom. In some severe c`ses that simply doesn't work, and a | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
specialist education is the only solution. It is thought that one in | :05:25. | :05:31. | |
every 100 is on the autistic spectrum. Of those, 40 per set of | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
autistic children are bullidd at school. One in five ends up being | :05:36. | :05:40. | |
excluded. That is why experts say these schools are must for oxygen. | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
It's hoped that with new schools come new opportunities for special | :05:46. | :05:49. | |
needs children in the countx. `` are a must for Oxfordshire. Sex workers | :05:50. | :06:09. | |
in Swindon's red`light district are to be given extra protection and | :06:10. | :06:12. | |
support. Prostitution has bden an ongoing issue in the town for years. | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
Now Wiltshire's Police and Crime Commissioner is planning to spend | :06:17. | :06:19. | |
?35,000 to employ a specialhst to help get the women off the streets. | :06:20. | :06:22. | |
We will tell you about that at 10:25pm. Earlier I asked Sarah | :06:23. | :06:27. | |
Walker from the English Collective of Prostitutes, who campaign to | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
scrap the laws on prostituthon, what she thought of the plans. Wd think | :06:31. | :06:34. | |
services are very, very important. Things like housing, help whth debt, | :06:35. | :06:37. | |
with claiming benefits. But those services can't substitute for | :06:38. | :06:40. | |
changes in the law, because it's the fact that prostitution is | :06:41. | :06:42. | |
criminalised ` that is what's driving women underground. Ht makes | :06:43. | :06:45. | |
it much harder to report. And violent men know this and, | :06:46. | :06:48. | |
therefore, target sex workers for violence. Is violence the bhggest | :06:49. | :06:51. | |
danger that sex workers facd? Yes, we would say safety is the very top | :06:52. | :06:55. | |
priority. And the problem women face is that if they try to report to the | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
police, they're often treatdd as criminals. And therefore, m`ny women | :06:59. | :07:01. | |
do not come forward and, thdrefore, violent men feel that they can get | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
away with it. So what's the simplest change that could improve their | :07:06. | :07:08. | |
safety? We think that the shmplest, the most important and the lost | :07:09. | :07:11. | |
urgent change needed is to decriminalise prostitution, to | :07:12. | :07:14. | |
abolish the laws so that wolen can work together safely indoors, and | :07:15. | :07:16. | |
can leave prostitution without having a criminal record. That's | :07:17. | :07:24. | |
what's trapping so many womdn in prostitution in the first place | :07:25. | :07:30. | |
That might not happen any thme soon, though, so what could happen | :07:31. | :07:34. | |
short`term to improve their safety? That can happen short`term. | :07:35. | :07:36. | |
Decriminalisation can happen right now. The Government, at this moment, | :07:37. | :07:42. | |
is reviewing the prostitution laws and we're pressing them and urging | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
the public to press them to go for decriminalisation. Because that is | :07:47. | :07:52. | |
the only way to ensure women's safety. Sarah Walker, thank you | :07:53. | :08:02. | |
The Road Dahl Museum in Buckinghamshire has won its case | :08:03. | :08:05. | |
against HM Revenue and Customs over a wrong tax payment. The museum and | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
story centre in Great Missenden claimed tax paid on its ?500,00 | :08:10. | :08:11. | |
revamp had been incorrectly classified. A tribunal dismhssed | :08:12. | :08:14. | |
claims about several payments ` but said VAT was wrongly categorised on | :08:15. | :08:18. | |
money spent creating a book about the hut where Roald Dahl wrote his | :08:19. | :08:21. | |
stories. Campaigners fighting a long`running | :08:22. | :08:24. | |
battle to save a swimming pool in Oxford have six months to bty it. | :08:25. | :08:28. | |
The city council approved S`ve Temple Cowley Pool's bid to be | :08:29. | :08:31. | |
listed as a community asset because it's well used in the local area. | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
The group will have six months before the pool can be sold on the | :08:37. | :08:46. | |
open market. Maudlin bridge will be open to | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
pedestrians when the May Dax celebrations take place in Oxford | :08:51. | :08:53. | |
this year. It's the fourth xear running the bridge will be open to | :08:54. | :08:56. | |
pedestrians and closed to traffic from 3am until 9am to enabld | :08:57. | :09:01. | |
everyone to enjoy the singing in comfort and safety. The bridge will | :09:02. | :09:06. | |
reopen to traffic as soon it's safe to do so. | :09:07. | :09:10. | |
Changes to parking charges hn Buckingham are going to become a | :09:11. | :09:12. | |
permanent fixture, following a trial. The district council | :09:13. | :09:17. | |
introduced the charges last summer and says free parking at two car | :09:18. | :09:21. | |
parks is also encouraging pdople to stay in the town centre for longer. | :09:22. | :09:27. | |
The freedom of the city of Oxford is to be awarded to the director of the | :09:28. | :09:31. | |
Ashmolean museum, Professor Christopher Brown. You'll bd | :09:32. | :09:34. | |
presented with the ceremoni`l scroll at an event in the town hall in | :09:35. | :09:39. | |
July. He is due to retire l`ter this year and says he's absolutely | :09:40. | :09:42. | |
thrilled to be honoured in that way. If you'd like to get in touch with | :09:43. | :09:46. | |
us and tell us about the stories you think we should be covering, you can | :09:47. | :09:53. | |
e`mail us. You can also join in the conversation on Facebook and | :09:54. | :09:54. | |
Twitter. That's all from me for the loment. | :09:55. | :10:30. | |
The waters may have gone but residents here are still talking | :10:31. | :10:37. | |
about what happened in their community. I still say that the | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
amount of properties that wdre lost in such a small area was | :10:42. | :10:47. | |
disgraceful. People round hdre have been crying as they have bedn coming | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
out of their bungalows. This is heartbreaking. When the floods came, | :10:52. | :10:56. | |
tens of thousands of pounds were spent on measures to try to limit | :10:57. | :11:00. | |
the harm they cause. The qudstion now is whether this could h`ve been | :11:01. | :11:07. | |
avoided. I've got roughly 120. Today residents were taking a dossier to | :11:08. | :11:12. | |
the county council, setting out details of the early warning signs | :11:13. | :11:15. | |
dating back years that they feel were ignored. From 2008, thdy've | :11:16. | :11:20. | |
ignored what they were told and people are angry, devastated. What | :11:21. | :11:29. | |
more can I say? They're horrified. That's a long time to know something | :11:30. | :11:33. | |
and not put any plans into `ction to prevent it happening. They should be | :11:34. | :11:38. | |
ashamed of themselves. The dossier has been delivered to the | :11:39. | :11:40. | |
authorities by opposition politicians. Here in Basingstoke, | :11:41. | :11:44. | |
those who run the council s`y a review is already planned to see | :11:45. | :11:51. | |
what lessons can be learned. This tune will mark the 70th | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
anniversary of the D`day landings. 2500 Allied troops died in the | :11:56. | :12:00. | |
operation that paved the wax for the end of the Second World War. | :12:01. | :12:04. | |
Portsmouth played an import`nt role. Veterans came to the city's D`day | :12:05. | :12:09. | |
museum today as the programle of events marking the important | :12:10. | :12:15. | |
anniversary was announced. It was probably the worst 24 hours | :12:16. | :12:22. | |
of my life. The smell of engine oil was dreadful. Frank took part in the | :12:23. | :12:32. | |
second wave of the landings in 944. His memories haven't faded. Today he | :12:33. | :12:36. | |
was reunited with World War II Jeep as Portsmouth officially announced | :12:37. | :12:40. | |
its anniversary events. The city was a key strategic location on D`day. | :12:41. | :12:47. | |
This was the centre of the operation and Portsmouth was never evdr found | :12:48. | :12:55. | |
to remember D`day. This year's 0th anniversary will be marked by events | :12:56. | :13:00. | |
from June five to June eight. Because of the age of the vdterans | :13:01. | :13:03. | |
that are still alive, it cotld be the last time we had a chance to | :13:04. | :13:06. | |
honour and commemorate this anniversary. For D`day veterans the | :13:07. | :13:12. | |
importance of remembering c`n't be overstated. They were so yotng. 18 | :13:13. | :13:24. | |
and 19`year`old boys. Richest people do not realise how free thex are. `` | :13:25. | :13:31. | |
British people. In June we are planning a special | :13:32. | :13:34. | |
series of reports to commemorate D`day and we need your help on one. | :13:35. | :13:40. | |
On June two, 1940 four, four days before the invasion, a group of | :13:41. | :13:43. | |
tanks were parked up in Waterlooville waiting to go. Have a | :13:44. | :13:48. | |
look at this picture. This little girl was then called Janet Coleman | :13:49. | :13:52. | |
and was out with her mum. She was filmed being made a fuss of by the | :13:53. | :13:57. | |
tank commander who even sat her on a tank. We're trying to find her. We | :13:58. | :14:02. | |
think she is about 34`macro here so she will probably be in her late 70s | :14:03. | :14:10. | |
and stop `` three or four. She might have got married or changed her name | :14:11. | :14:13. | |
but did you know where Janet Coleman is now? If you've got any idea where | :14:14. | :14:21. | |
she is, you can contact us by e`mail, Twitter or on Facebook. | :14:22. | :14:29. | |
Tony is here with a look at the sport and some golf news but also | :14:30. | :14:34. | |
the Poole Pirates are beginning to fence off their title. `` ddfence | :14:35. | :14:41. | |
of. The next four nights will bd very | :14:42. | :14:47. | |
exciting. A tremendous event. We have Justin Rose flying the flag for | :14:48. | :14:54. | |
Hampshire. He won the US opdn title last year. He is eighth in the world | :14:55. | :15:03. | |
and heads out on the first tee later. He said he is in the prime of | :15:04. | :15:07. | |
his career. He will team up with Ernie Els and Phil Mickelson and the | :15:08. | :15:12. | |
experience will help him. You come here looking at increasing xour | :15:13. | :15:20. | |
tally of major championships. At least you know you've faced those | :15:21. | :15:25. | |
emotions before and come through. It's a huge benefit, turning up here | :15:26. | :15:31. | |
this week. Last week, Poole Pirates' new Polish double `ct | :15:32. | :15:34. | |
helped them get off to a flxing start last night. They starred in | :15:35. | :15:44. | |
the 52`37 victory which included this in heat 15 to wrap up ` | :15:45. | :15:48. | |
convincing win. It is a boost for the Pirates, who are without one of | :15:49. | :15:55. | |
their team through injury. Now for the second in our sdries of | :15:56. | :16:00. | |
reports on women in sport coaching. Female coaching numbers rem`in low | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
in the UK. In an effort to change that, an initiative offering females | :16:06. | :16:11. | |
the chance to gains Bortz qualifications in coaching `` sport | :16:12. | :16:14. | |
qualifications in coaching hs taking place and if successful will be | :16:15. | :16:19. | |
rolled out across the country. Short sprint intervals. | :16:20. | :16:25. | |
At 68, Rita is a late startdr in sports coaching. For the past five | :16:26. | :16:31. | |
years, she's been an inform`l mental for her fellow female runners. Now, | :16:32. | :16:37. | |
thanks to project 500, she has an official qualification as a sports | :16:38. | :16:43. | |
coach. When the opportunity came, I jumped at the chance becausd it will | :16:44. | :16:48. | |
give me the skills and knowledge to do that hopefully more succdssfully. | :16:49. | :16:56. | |
Evita has inspired many womdn to get active and challenge themselves | :16:57. | :17:03. | |
When we moved to Didcot, I didn t know anyone there and now I've run | :17:04. | :17:06. | |
the half marathon and she's been supportive all the time. Thd project | :17:07. | :17:12. | |
is active across the South `nd encourages women of all ages and | :17:13. | :17:15. | |
abilities to take up sports coaching. John Driscoll is the | :17:16. | :17:21. | |
executive director of sports coach UK which runs the project. The | :17:22. | :17:29. | |
obstacles are time and cost because the majority of coaches, both men | :17:30. | :17:33. | |
and women, are volunteers. Hf you are giving up your time to coach, | :17:34. | :17:37. | |
you don't also want to give up your time and money, away from your | :17:38. | :17:44. | |
family, to gain qualifications. Much better. Lindsay is a former Olympic | :17:45. | :17:52. | |
diver. She's now a coach and thinks that when today's professional | :17:53. | :17:56. | |
athlete retired, they won't be attracted by the of coaching. The | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
athletes at the top end get paid quite a lot of money so for them to | :18:02. | :18:04. | |
go into coaching, they would have to be very, very committed to the | :18:05. | :18:08. | |
sport. We all were because we didn't get paid when we were diving or | :18:09. | :18:14. | |
coaching to start with. She has been a torch bearer for coaching. To | :18:15. | :18:20. | |
start with, there were prob`bly only five women coaches out of 200 at a | :18:21. | :18:25. | |
particular event and this ydar, I would say there were 25%. So it s | :18:26. | :18:36. | |
increasing. Netball is percdived as an all`female sport and the | :18:37. | :18:39. | |
proportion of female coaches has always been high. Kim was optimistic | :18:40. | :18:45. | |
that with the help of this project, where netball leads others will | :18:46. | :18:52. | |
follow. There is a lot of hope for women in coaching. They may not | :18:53. | :18:56. | |
realise what is out there. This is saying, come and have a go `nd get | :18:57. | :19:00. | |
the best out of your sport. A very interesting series. Do you think | :19:01. | :19:08. | |
things are changing? I think they are and with the help of thhs | :19:09. | :19:12. | |
project, it's going to incrdase even more, which is the good news. | :19:13. | :19:15. | |
Hopefully they'll make it a countrywide thing. We all rdmember | :19:16. | :19:23. | |
our first coaches. I remembdr my first cricket coach, Chris | :19:24. | :19:27. | |
Cotterill. He taught me how to play a defensive shot. Ten years later I | :19:28. | :19:34. | |
played club cricket. I remelber my football coach. He used to tie the | :19:35. | :19:39. | |
goalkeeper's shoelaces together to make him dive, usually on frosty | :19:40. | :19:46. | |
ground. A few years back, Roger Finn spent a | :19:47. | :19:50. | |
couple of summers indulging his passion for the countryside, with | :19:51. | :19:54. | |
regular features looking at wildlife and some of the country characters | :19:55. | :19:59. | |
who share his love. This spring he at it again and he's starting this | :20:00. | :20:04. | |
evening with the story of a much loved but very endangered lhttle | :20:05. | :20:08. | |
creature. One of the few parts of the country where it still has a | :20:09. | :20:12. | |
stronghold is in a small corner of the West Sussex coast. | :20:13. | :20:24. | |
A foggy morning. A team of conservationists are checking traps. | :20:25. | :20:34. | |
For Britain's fastest declining mammal, the water vole. Last | :20:35. | :20:43. | |
September, she was the only adult female that we caught and wd tagged | :20:44. | :20:47. | |
and we can see that she's still here so she was the only adult fdmale | :20:48. | :20:50. | |
that we caught and we tagged and we can see that she's still here so | :20:51. | :20:54. | |
she's survived they can havd up to five or six litters a year, so a | :20:55. | :20:59. | |
single water vole camp equal 10 falls quite quickly. Water voles are | :21:00. | :21:06. | |
being studied because last September their habitat changed dramatically. | :21:07. | :21:10. | |
The sea defence was deliber`tely breached. The idea is that the power | :21:11. | :21:14. | |
of the waves will now be so`ked up by the land but an earth bank in | :21:15. | :21:22. | |
land is the final barrier. Not just a radical new sea defence btt | :21:23. | :21:25. | |
Britain's newest nature resdrve too. It has a sea water inshde and | :21:26. | :21:31. | |
fresh water outside. Water voles love fresh water so for the little | :21:32. | :21:35. | |
fellas that live on this side of the bank whether sea water is coming in, | :21:36. | :21:39. | |
there's a real problem. The water over here is getting more s`lty so | :21:40. | :21:43. | |
the hope is that they will ligrate over the earth bank to hear, where | :21:44. | :21:47. | |
they will find a freshly made Paradise waiting for them. Ht's | :21:48. | :21:56. | |
quite low`lying and flat land. Farming has drained the land with | :21:57. | :21:59. | |
drainage ditches and they'rd all connected and snake across the | :22:00. | :22:05. | |
landscape. It's an amazing habitat. New meanders have been created with | :22:06. | :22:08. | |
the sort of vegetation water voles love. Today the team are looking for | :22:09. | :22:12. | |
evidence that the voles havd moved in. | :22:13. | :22:19. | |
This is the water vole. It has been put in a nice neat pile and is about | :22:20. | :22:25. | |
the size of a small suite. They mark their territory. There are little | :22:26. | :22:34. | |
shards of green vegetation. They've been out and found something quite | :22:35. | :22:41. | |
green and lush so they came back. So they're here in strength! | :22:42. | :22:46. | |
Encouraging signs and water voles badly need some good news. @cross | :22:47. | :22:50. | |
Britain, populations have bden decimated, largely due to md. This | :22:51. | :22:56. | |
could be a real stronghold for them. In Sussex over the last dec`de, | :22:57. | :23:01. | |
we've had and 90% increase `` deepfreeze water voles. There are | :23:02. | :23:05. | |
only a few sites that we sthll have them naturally occurring. This is | :23:06. | :23:09. | |
one of them and they are st`rting to breed. When we come back in | :23:10. | :23:12. | |
September, hopefully this whll all have come up. It's suitable for | :23:13. | :23:19. | |
voles and also otherworldly. The new salt marshes are already proving | :23:20. | :23:30. | |
popular. `` and other wildlhfe. The research project will follow the | :23:31. | :23:34. | |
water voles for five years, looking at the new habitat and the well | :23:35. | :23:38. | |
established ones nearby. Thhs is what we call our control ditch, | :23:39. | :23:42. | |
where we compare everything else that's happening with water voles | :23:43. | :23:46. | |
across the site. We look at how many are here, males and females, and at | :23:47. | :23:51. | |
territory. It's really important that we look after and consdrve them | :23:52. | :23:56. | |
because they are a few of the ovulation that we have left. `` | :23:57. | :24:04. | |
population. More from Roger next week btt in the | :24:05. | :24:10. | |
mean time, here are some of the curious items and tools that he | :24:11. | :24:13. | |
found while he was filming. They were used in years gone by. | :24:14. | :24:21. | |
In this series, we've got an extra interactive treat ` a mystery object | :24:22. | :24:27. | |
found here. This is the first one. What is it? You can make a guess on | :24:28. | :24:32. | |
our Facebook page and everything will be revealed next week. | :24:33. | :24:38. | |
I'm perplexed! It looks a bht like a bell. Or one of those mallets they | :24:39. | :24:44. | |
use in auction houses. We'd better let the viewers have the call on | :24:45. | :24:50. | |
that. More on that on our F`cebook page. Gilbert suggests that it is an | :24:51. | :24:55. | |
mallet and Steve thinks it's for tolling bell. They're all wrong | :24:56. | :25:02. | |
Roger is going to give you the answer next week. Time for ` look at | :25:03. | :25:07. | |
the weather and, Alexis, yot don't need any coaching on the we`ther | :25:08. | :25:08. | |
forecast. No, it's quiet and that's good news | :25:09. | :25:16. | |
because we'll have lots of sunshine. Dave captured this sunrise | :25:17. | :25:22. | |
in Swanage. Carey took this photo of a red squirrel. And this is Barney | :25:23. | :25:30. | |
who is enjoying the bluebells. Thanks to Roy for that. | :25:31. | :25:35. | |
A quiet period over the next few days thanks to high pressurd. | :25:36. | :25:39. | |
Tonight we are looking at mhst and fog patches with, perhaps, some mist | :25:40. | :25:44. | |
and fog in places. Fog not for everyone but it will be where we | :25:45. | :25:48. | |
have the clear skies. As we head through the night, there is a chance | :25:49. | :25:54. | |
of maybe a spot of rain. Temperatures will fall to around six | :25:55. | :25:58. | |
or seven. Temperatures slightly lower in the countryside. A foggy, | :25:59. | :26:04. | |
misty start tomorrow. It won't stay that way ` mist and fog will lift | :26:05. | :26:08. | |
swiftly and we will see sunshine across the region. Variable amounts | :26:09. | :26:14. | |
of cloud so not wall`to`wall sunshine but in the sunshind, expect | :26:15. | :26:19. | |
highs of 14 or 15. Maybe evdn 1 in areas closer to London. Cle`r skies | :26:20. | :26:24. | |
tomorrow night, like last nhght and tonight. There is the risk of a | :26:25. | :26:28. | |
touch of frost first thing on Saturday. There will be somd cloud | :26:29. | :26:32. | |
but under clear skies, tempdrature is good for a notch lower than | :26:33. | :26:37. | |
tonight. Lows of five. Slightly milder along the South coast. A dry | :26:38. | :26:41. | |
start to Saturday and high pressure remains in charge. Later on Saturday | :26:42. | :26:46. | |
we see this cold front move its way southwards across the country, | :26:47. | :26:50. | |
introducing slightly more cloud so the sunshine could turn hazx through | :26:51. | :26:54. | |
the afternoon, but it will stay dry for much of the daylight hotrs. | :26:55. | :27:00. | |
Saturday and Sunday are both pretty good. If you're running the London | :27:01. | :27:04. | |
Marathon on Sunday, we could see highs in the afternoon for the | :27:05. | :27:09. | |
strugglers of 17. There will be a cold and perhaps cloudy start for | :27:10. | :27:13. | |
the marathon. We are expecthng a lot of cloud to start each day. There | :27:14. | :27:18. | |
may be mist and fog as well but it won't stay that way. There will be | :27:19. | :27:22. | |
sunny spells breaking through. On Sunday we could see temperatures | :27:23. | :27:27. | |
soar after a cloudy start up to around 15 to 17. | :27:28. | :27:34. | |
Looking good! Long may it continue. That's all from us. You can keep | :27:35. | :27:37. | |
up`to`date on the BBC News website but from all of the team here, have | :27:38. | :27:40. | |
a good one. Goodbye for now. | :27:41. | :27:44. |
