Good evening and welcome to BBC Points West. Our headlines tonight: | :00:11. | :00:15. | |
The Bristol care homes scandal. Now there's renewed concern about how | :00:15. | :00:19. | |
bad things are at Rose Villa. Defeat for the protesters as | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
councillors prepare the ground for another nuclear power station in | :00:21. | :00:26. | |
Somerset. You create the jobs, we'll cut the rates, the Prime | :00:26. | :00:36. | |
:00:36. | :00:39. | ||
Minister's promise to Bristol. into the enterprise zone and we | :00:39. | :00:44. | |
will actually help you and your business to grow and succeed. | :00:44. | :00:48. | |
love you all. The actor who gave his theatre award it to the | :00:48. | :00:57. | |
character who inspired him. Good evening. Tonight, a new concerns | :00:57. | :01:03. | |
about another of the West's care homes. Four members of staff had | :01:03. | :01:08. | |
already been suspended from Rose Villa in Bristol, now the Care | :01:08. | :01:13. | |
Quality Commission has found failings there. Today, the Prime | :01:13. | :01:19. | |
Minister told Points West if care home providers are not up to shape | :01:19. | :01:25. | |
their homes should be taken away. Winterbourne View is boarded up and | :01:25. | :01:34. | |
closed down. After Panorama film vulnerable patients you being | :01:34. | :01:41. | |
mistreated, now another of our care homes is being investigated. It is | :01:41. | :01:50. | |
also owned by Castlebeck. Inspections have been prompted by | :01:50. | :01:55. | |
that BBC investigation. Seven of their other 23 homes do not comply | :01:55. | :02:01. | |
with standards and there are serious concerns about four others | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
including rose belie here in Bristol where enforcement action is | :02:04. | :02:10. | |
being taken. The manager has been suspended and they are no new | :02:10. | :02:16. | |
admissions. There are particular concerns around an | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
institutionalised style of care. The use of restraint is something | :02:20. | :02:25. | |
they do not wanly used as a last resort. Where there have been | :02:25. | :02:28. | |
incidents they have not been followed up and recorded properly | :02:28. | :02:35. | |
to make sure the learn the lessons. Today the Prime Minister was in | :02:35. | :02:41. | |
Bristol and he had strong words for those involved. We want tough | :02:41. | :02:48. | |
regulation by the Care Quality Commission. If the homes are not up | :02:48. | :02:56. | |
to shape they should be taken away. Castlebeck once again apologised | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
today and promised to put things right. I agree with most of the | :03:01. | :03:06. | |
recommendations put forward. Over the past six months we have already | :03:06. | :03:13. | |
started looking at a whole series of changes we needed to make. | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
reports and inquiries today all shedding fresh light on what was | :03:17. | :03:24. | |
going on. Tonight there are also more developments about | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
Winterbourne View. Our reporter is with me now. What have we found | :03:28. | :03:38. | |
:03:38. | :03:39. | ||
out? Fresh information today from a Freedom of Information request that | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
between the 2006, when the hospital opened, and this year, there were | :03:43. | :03:52. | |
19 complaints raised to the local council. 17 from managers and 15 | :03:52. | :04:02. | |
:04:02. | :04:04. | ||
about the staff. Nothing new has been said today. We have been | :04:04. | :04:08. | |
referred to the serious case review which will be brought together what | :04:08. | :04:14. | |
everybody knows and what people knew. We are starting to see the | :04:14. | :04:20. | |
authorities positioning themselves a little bit in response to that. | :04:20. | :04:27. | |
In the statement that was picked out today in response to the | :04:27. | :04:32. | |
airport it is said everybody has the responsibility for that kind of | :04:32. | :04:37. | |
care. You are really starting to see people make sure everybody puts | :04:37. | :04:45. | |
their hands up when a case like this comes out. Christopher | :04:45. | :04:50. | |
Halliwell, the Swindon taxi driver accused of murdering two women has | :04:50. | :04:55. | |
appeared in court via a video link. He is charged with the murder of | :04:55. | :05:00. | |
Sian O'Callaghan be disappeared from a nightclub in the town and | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
Becky Godden-Edwards whose body was discovered in a field in | :05:03. | :05:11. | |
Gloucestershire. He did not enter a plea. The new nuclear power station | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
at Hinckley Point move to step closer this afternoon. An energy | :05:15. | :05:23. | |
company was granted permission to start excavating the site. Anti- | :05:23. | :05:29. | |
nuclear campaigners say if it goes ahead it will spoil the countryside. | :05:29. | :05:38. | |
Our reporter was at the meeting. A beautiful evening here in Somerset | :05:38. | :05:43. | |
but the atmosphere is far from harmonious. After a whole day of | :05:43. | :05:48. | |
debate the future of a new nuclear power station at Hinckley looks | :05:48. | :05:56. | |
likely. The energy company want to strip back land that they might | :05:56. | :06:02. | |
build this new nuclear power side- on. They are yet to have permission | :06:02. | :06:08. | |
from the Government for it. Protesters like in this to laying | :06:08. | :06:12. | |
the foundations for a house for which you are yet to get planning | :06:12. | :06:17. | |
permission. Those against it says stepping back of the beautiful | :06:17. | :06:22. | |
countryside in Somerset for work that may take years to start or | :06:22. | :06:32. | |
:06:32. | :06:36. | ||
even start atoll is ridiculous. Those go against her allowing the | :06:36. | :06:43. | |
power company to prepare the ground before permission foreign nuclear | :06:43. | :06:50. | |
site is given describe themselves as being in the reef. It is | :06:50. | :06:58. | |
premature to say the least, they say. Some say any delay could cost | :06:58. | :07:04. | |
the area it dear, now and in the future. If it does not go ahead the | :07:04. | :07:09. | |
area will die. Half of the young people will have to leave because | :07:09. | :07:14. | |
there is not much other employment around here. It is a lovely part of | :07:14. | :07:20. | |
the country. You can see why people come here on holiday. But I do not | :07:20. | :07:26. | |
want to see it die. I would like my sons and grandsons to live here and | :07:26. | :07:34. | |
get good well-paid jobs. Others say new nuclear plant -- some say this | :07:34. | :07:42. | |
will bring millions of pounds to the local community. Others | :07:42. | :07:47. | |
disagree. It will be impossible to reinstate this ground to where it | :07:47. | :07:50. | |
is before or so we say this will be a complete waste of time | :07:51. | :07:55. | |
devastating a large area of Somerset countryside for no gain at | :07:55. | :08:02. | |
all. This afternoon councillors, watched by the public on screens in | :08:02. | :08:09. | |
a marquee in the car park, had to weigh up both sides of the argument. | :08:09. | :08:14. | |
I am joined now by two men on of opposing sides of the argument. Why | :08:14. | :08:21. | |
did the council gets the decision so wrong? They did not take on our | :08:21. | :08:26. | |
sensible argument that if there is not permission to build the | :08:26. | :08:31. | |
nuclear-power station itself then this Saviour will have been | :08:31. | :08:33. | |
devastated in vain and could never be put back together again which | :08:33. | :08:42. | |
would be a tragedy for the area. And you're from the energy plant, | :08:42. | :08:47. | |
you think the council made the right decision today? That's right. | :08:47. | :08:52. | |
There will be massive inward investment and jobs for the region. | :08:52. | :08:57. | |
For the nation it will provide a lot of low carbon electricity. We | :08:57. | :09:02. | |
will work with many people to make sure we do the right thing but we | :09:02. | :09:08. | |
are determined to do so. A decision has been made here at West Somerset | :09:08. | :09:14. | |
Council today but the debate is far from over. Two men have been | :09:14. | :09:19. | |
convicted of murdering a Bristol student and his new wife in Antigua. | :09:19. | :09:27. | |
Ben Mullany who was studying at UWE in Bristol and his wife Catherine | :09:27. | :09:37. | |
:09:37. | :09:38. | ||
were shot following a raid on their apartment three years ago. Police | :09:38. | :09:41. | |
investigating the death of a Bristol man in Wales say he could | :09:41. | :09:47. | |
have been the victim of a hit and run accident. He was discovered at | :09:47. | :09:57. | |
the side of the road on 7th July. Officers are trying to trace a | :09:57. | :10:02. | |
three-CD is BMW early on the morning that Mr Hamilton died. The | :10:02. | :10:06. | |
Prime Minister was in the West today. The real reason for his | :10:06. | :10:16. | |
:10:16. | :10:19. | ||
visit was to give at personal go- ahead for a new business | :10:19. | :10:27. | |
regeneration scheme. Arriving by train, this is the first thing you | :10:27. | :10:33. | |
see in Bristol full stock but coming to the rescue of the | :10:33. | :10:38. | |
derelict sorting office, the Prime Minister. He plans to make this the | :10:38. | :10:45. | |
an enterprise zone where new businesses get help to get started. | :10:45. | :10:49. | |
There is rates relief which is vital. Come to the enterprise zone | :10:49. | :10:56. | |
and you will pay less rates, get super-fast broadband, and you will | :10:56. | :11:03. | |
get help for your business to grow and succeed. More entrepreneur's | :11:03. | :11:09. | |
please was the message from today was my visit, encouraging more of | :11:09. | :11:14. | |
the media companies that Bristol is already famous for. There are | :11:15. | :11:22. | |
potentially 20,000 more jobs. talking about a much bigger side of | :11:22. | :11:28. | |
180 acres in total. Over time we can create a lot of jobs here. | :11:28. | :11:35. | |
what if you are just outside the special zone? Inevitably there will | :11:35. | :11:40. | |
be a line drawn down the street. Some will be on the right side and | :11:40. | :11:46. | |
some will be on the wrong side. There are some the areas that are | :11:46. | :11:56. | |
:11:56. | :11:56. | ||
in need of investment. There are those here who seek that a mixture | :11:56. | :12:02. | |
of business and enterprise is just what is needed. In terms of the | :12:02. | :12:08. | |
Environment be want to see food production, entertainment, | :12:08. | :12:12. | |
craftspeople, a part of Bristol that has lain dormant for years we | :12:12. | :12:17. | |
want to see invigorated. Enterprise Zone idea has been | :12:17. | :12:22. | |
widely welcomed. These initiatives often are. Whether it will succeed | :12:22. | :12:26. | |
will become clear once the politicians have left and | :12:26. | :12:35. | |
development work begins later this Bentley for joining us. Stay with | :12:35. | :12:39. | |
us, lots more to come. We will have a full weather | :12:39. | :12:44. | |
forecast shortly, and swashbuckling in the City, why are pirates taking | :12:44. | :12:54. | |
:12:54. | :12:56. | ||
over Bristol? Because they are! Stay with us, that is to come, but | :12:56. | :12:59. | |
first, more news. A Somerset man who took part in | :12:59. | :13:02. | |
nuclear tests in the 50s has been given permission to appeal for | :13:02. | :13:05. | |
damages. 71-year-old Jeff Liddiatt from Portishead is one of a group | :13:05. | :13:08. | |
of veterans who blame the tests for health problems like cancer. They | :13:08. | :13:11. | |
had been told they waited too long to ask for compensation, but today | :13:11. | :13:20. | |
the Supreme Court granted them permission to appeal that decision. | :13:20. | :13:27. | |
It seems to go on and on and on. Every time we come to a position, | :13:27. | :13:33. | |
something else pops up that we have to do to get any further. And even | :13:33. | :13:38. | |
if, next year or later this year, the decision, the appeal is upheld, | :13:39. | :13:43. | |
then the full case is prepared to go to the High Court, and that will | :13:43. | :13:47. | |
take three or four years before it comes to a full hearing. Today's | :13:47. | :13:51. | |
hearing was the third time veterans had been to court in their fight | :13:51. | :13:54. | |
for the right to claim damages. A dementia sufferer from Somerset | :13:54. | :13:58. | |
has been told he will not have his nursing care paid for by the NHS, | :13:58. | :14:04. | |
even though the organisation's own experts said he should. The nurses | :14:04. | :14:06. | |
who assessed 88-year-old Leslie Tushingham said his needs were | :14:06. | :14:09. | |
"high", but that was later changed and his application for funding was | :14:09. | :14:15. | |
refused. Age UK says there is an inconsistency about who is eligible | :14:16. | :14:21. | |
for free nursing care. Leslie Tushingham is almost blind | :14:21. | :14:24. | |
and cannot communicate or understand what is going on around | :14:24. | :14:31. | |
him. Since October, he has been paying �3000 a month to stay in | :14:31. | :14:40. | |
this nursing home in Somerset. Very distressing, because you are | :14:40. | :14:47. | |
trying to deal with a person who is very, very sick, and yet you cannot | :14:47. | :14:52. | |
really see what the end of the Financial destruction is going to | :14:52. | :15:01. | |
be forced. His family applied for the NHS to pay because of the | :15:01. | :15:04. | |
severity of his illness, but have just been turned down. Mr | :15:04. | :15:06. | |
Tushingham was recently assessed by specialist nurses who said his | :15:06. | :15:16. | |
behaviour needs were high. But that was downgraded by the funding panel. | :15:16. | :15:20. | |
They changed the scoring from high to moderate and said that he is | :15:20. | :15:25. | |
predictable, not challenging, which is in real contrast to what the | :15:25. | :15:30. | |
experts recommended. The average family would not know how to get | :15:30. | :15:36. | |
through this process, they wouldn't know where to start. As a nurse who | :15:37. | :15:40. | |
works for a law firm, his daughter says she feels able to challenge | :15:40. | :15:44. | |
this decision. NHS Somerset has refused to be interviewed. But in a | :15:44. | :15:46. | |
statement they point out such applications are reviewed against | :15:46. | :15:48. | |
national guidelines and where there is insufficient evidence presented | :15:48. | :15:51. | |
to demonstrate the recommended level of need, the panel will | :15:51. | :15:55. | |
identify this. They are also trying to contact Mr Tushingham's family | :15:55. | :16:01. | |
to explain the appeal process them. But the charity Age UK say this | :16:01. | :16:02. | |
case highlights long-standing inconsistencies with the assessment | :16:02. | :16:12. | |
:16:12. | :16:13. | ||
process. Already, some people can have waited up to 42 days for the | :16:13. | :16:17. | |
decision itself, so then to expect them to go back and a pale and | :16:17. | :16:22. | |
potentially go into quite a lengthy period to either get back all start | :16:22. | :16:26. | |
getting funding, we are talking often substantial amounts of money | :16:26. | :16:30. | |
which people may not need to be paying. His family will now appeal | :16:30. | :16:35. | |
the decision. They believe they will win, but others without the | :16:35. | :16:42. | |
same expertise may not be so confident. | :16:42. | :16:46. | |
Our health correspondent is with us now. Why is there so much | :16:46. | :16:49. | |
inconsistency between who does get this and who doesn't? | :16:49. | :16:55. | |
It is a lottery depending on where you live. The Registered Nursing | :16:55. | :16:59. | |
Home Association did a survey this week and said in some places you | :16:59. | :17:04. | |
are likely to get -- eight times more likely to get this funding. If | :17:04. | :17:09. | |
you look at the national criteria, they say you would qualify if you | :17:09. | :17:16. | |
had eight high needs and several intermediate needs. | :17:16. | :17:20. | |
This care is expensive, can they be expected to fund every case? | :17:20. | :17:27. | |
It is a huge amount of money. Somerset's overall budget for | :17:27. | :17:31. | |
everything is �850 million. 27 million of that last year was for | :17:31. | :17:38. | |
this funding for about 55 patients, about �50,000 per patient. It is a | :17:38. | :17:43. | |
lot of money and will attract a lot of controversy because of that, and | :17:43. | :17:46. | |
also we will have more people requiring it with dementia going up, | :17:47. | :17:55. | |
for instance. A man from north Somerset is | :17:55. | :17:58. | |
walking from Lands End to Inverness and back in full military gear to | :17:58. | :18:01. | |
raise money for his sick son. Two- year-old Ethan Moss, from Winscombe, | :18:01. | :18:04. | |
has a rare condition which causes tumours to attack his body. He is | :18:04. | :18:08. | |
one of just 500 children in the world to suffer from it. No | :18:08. | :18:12. | |
treatment is available here. His parents want to raise �70,000 as | :18:12. | :18:18. | |
they hope doctors in America may be able to help. | :18:18. | :18:23. | |
It will slow the process down by a little bit, which could give him | :18:23. | :18:28. | |
that extra little bit of time for the research centre or consultants | :18:28. | :18:32. | |
to come up with another solution to give him and other children with | :18:32. | :18:42. | |
:18:42. | :18:44. | ||
this condition that extra year off years with their families. -- extra | :18:44. | :18:49. | |
here or extra few years. Nick is hoping to complete the walk | :18:49. | :18:53. | |
by September. It is the eve of the Bristol | :18:53. | :18:56. | |
Harbour Festival. It is 40 years since the event was first held, and | :18:56. | :18:58. | |
today there have been rehearsals and last-minute preparations to | :18:58. | :19:04. | |
make sure it is a birthday to remember. | :19:04. | :19:08. | |
Jules Hyam is there for us now. You are on the boat! | :19:08. | :19:15. | |
It is like your own private harbour side top. This is the Matthew, the | :19:15. | :19:19. | |
replica of John Cabot's 15th century ship, the original of which | :19:19. | :19:23. | |
went all the way to new found land. This replica will be Derek around | :19:23. | :19:28. | |
the harbour this weekend. It is one of many replica ships which will be | :19:28. | :19:31. | |
here this weekend and one of many events which people have been | :19:31. | :19:41. | |
:19:41. | :19:44. | ||
working hard to pull together today. It is a big gig to prepare for - | :19:44. | :19:50. | |
183 gigs. 22 of them here on the main stage. But, for many, this | :19:50. | :19:53. | |
isn't the main attraction. Over the past 40 years, the Harbour Festival | :19:53. | :19:56. | |
has outgrown the harbour. It now stretches all the way to Castle | :19:56. | :19:59. | |
Park, where these guys are trying to take over. | :19:59. | :20:04. | |
It is mainly fighting, fighting and drinking. That is mainly it, really. | :20:04. | :20:08. | |
What else is a pirate's life? Pirates are just part of more than | :20:08. | :20:13. | |
over 13 hours of circus and street theatre happening here. It is | :20:13. | :20:17. | |
really important, we are the premier showcase for this kind of | :20:17. | :20:22. | |
work in the south-west. There is the Glastonbury Festival, but apart | :20:22. | :20:26. | |
from that it is the premier showcase for outdoor circus and | :20:26. | :20:29. | |
street theatre. Over at Queens Square, it all looked pretty | :20:29. | :20:33. | |
tranquil a couple of hours ago. But come Saturday afternoon, it will be | :20:33. | :20:41. | |
one of the busiest places in the whole of the west. | :20:41. | :20:45. | |
While you are watching that, we were watching fit comp -- watching | :20:45. | :20:53. | |
this, which has literally just arrived in the harbour. It has been | :20:53. | :20:56. | |
a hive of activity all day and will be more so tomorrow before the | :20:57. | :21:01. | |
festival starts tomorrow evening. Will the weather be nice? Fingers | :21:01. | :21:06. | |
crossed, let's see what it does. We are optimistic but we will find | :21:06. | :21:10. | |
out soon enough. Thank you. Now what do you when your | :21:10. | :21:17. | |
mantelpiece is full of trophies? I wouldn't know, but it is a | :21:17. | :21:23. | |
problem Alex faces all the time! But when a Broadway actor recently | :21:23. | :21:27. | |
won a Tony, he decided that, rather than keep his prize, he would give | :21:27. | :21:29. | |
it to the Wiltshire man who inspired his character. | :21:29. | :21:32. | |
Mark Rylance has been playing the lead role, a drug-dealing rogue, in | :21:32. | :21:35. | |
the hit show Jerusalem. And his performance was based partly on | :21:35. | :21:38. | |
Mickey Lay from Pewsey. Lizzie Way went to find out more. | :21:38. | :21:41. | |
Treading the boards in Broadway is a character from right here in | :21:41. | :21:47. | |
Pewsey. Mickey Lay, the local man who inspired Jez Butterworth to | :21:47. | :21:51. | |
write a play about him. When the actor Mark Rylance was cast in the | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
role, he came to visit Mickey for some inspiration. And he has now | :21:54. | :21:58. | |
given him a little thank you. is the original Tony Ward, | :21:58. | :22:03. | |
specially engraved for the pair of you. This is from Mark, from | :22:03. | :22:07. | |
America, saying thanks for everything you have done. This | :22:07. | :22:14. | |
award is just for you two. Well done. The locals might be impressed | :22:14. | :22:19. | |
here, but the man in question was not overly enamoured. It is all | :22:19. | :22:28. | |
right, I suppose. It was given to mark, wasn't it? It is second-hand, | :22:28. | :22:32. | |
really. The play is a huge success in New York. The landlord here went | :22:32. | :22:37. | |
out to watch it and even had a role to play. They jokingly said to me, | :22:37. | :22:42. | |
you will be on stage tomorrow night in the play and I said, yeah, right. | :22:42. | :22:47. | |
But I did take part in the fight scene, so I have been on Broadway! | :22:47. | :22:51. | |
But after the play, Mark asked me if I could take something back for | :22:51. | :22:57. | |
him. I wasn't too sure what it was, but when the cast said what he had | :22:57. | :23:01. | |
done, I thought it was strange. The Tony Award is like a World Cup | :23:01. | :23:05. | |
medal. After he received the award, Mark Rylance said Mickey had been | :23:05. | :23:08. | |
very generous with his time and provided him with inspiration, so | :23:08. | :23:11. | |
deserved the award. It is not the usual way for a Tony | :23:11. | :23:16. | |
award to be presented, and it is not so usual for the winner to be | :23:16. | :23:21. | |
so unforced, but like it or not, Nikkei is now an award-winning | :23:21. | :23:31. | |
:23:31. | :23:32. | ||
character. -- Nick. It is second-hand, that is what he | :23:32. | :23:38. | |
said! Not the longest award winner speech | :23:38. | :23:42. | |
in history! We were talking about the weather | :23:42. | :23:52. | |
:23:52. | :23:52. | ||
for the harbourside Festival and Let's get the Harbour Festival | :23:52. | :23:55. | |
about the way, it is looking pretty good. I doubt he will need an | :23:55. | :24:04. | |
umbrella, we are looking at a dry spell of weather for the weekend. A | :24:04. | :24:10. | |
fair amount of cloud on Saturday, but pleasant in like winds. | :24:10. | :24:13. | |
Tomorrow will bring some changes as we introduce the threat of showers | :24:13. | :24:17. | |
through the course of the afternoon, but for the most part the key | :24:17. | :24:21. | |
change to today will be a largely County affair with some areas | :24:21. | :24:26. | |
favoured to see more sunshine, but warm nonetheless. It is this | :24:26. | :24:30. | |
weather affront which is causing the subtle changes. I described it | :24:30. | :24:33. | |
at lunchtime as the most boring front in the history of weather | :24:33. | :24:38. | |
fronts, which has not changed in the last few hours, but by tomorrow | :24:38. | :24:41. | |
it straddles the district and will bring cloud and the threat of some | :24:42. | :24:46. | |
showers. The showers tomorrow will not be random, we will have Deasy | :24:46. | :24:51. | |
breeze from the south coast, a prevailing north-easterly tomorrow, | :24:51. | :24:56. | |
and whether two meet the air can only go up, and it will form some | :24:56. | :25:00. | |
showers, particularly in parts of South and Central Somerset, Dorset, | :25:00. | :25:04. | |
South Wiltshire and parts of Wiltshire through the course of the | :25:04. | :25:09. | |
day. Through today, the showers have been a rarity, no spots of | :25:09. | :25:16. | |
rain virtually across the West Country. This rain front is just | :25:16. | :25:20. | |
starting to ease into the east, so the chance of a few spots as we run | :25:20. | :25:24. | |
through the rest of this evening, but broadly speaking a good amount | :25:24. | :25:29. | |
of sunshine still for many, and as the night wears on, the cloud will | :25:29. | :25:34. | |
lower, so we could get some Hill fog in next more. Elsewhere, maybe | :25:34. | :25:41. | |
a spot or two of light rain, but most districts dry, and mild. | :25:41. | :25:46. | |
Tomorrow will start once again with variable cloud, and the chance | :25:46. | :25:49. | |
still of some further light showers north of Gloucestershire, but | :25:49. | :25:54. | |
broadly speaking the morning is dry. Into the afternoon, some sunny | :25:54. | :25:58. | |
spells appearing, but those showers I mentioned earlier, you can see | :25:58. | :26:03. | |
them in the more southern districts. The best of any sunshine will be in | :26:03. | :26:10. | |
the west coast of Somerset. Through the rest of the evening, the | :26:10. | :26:14. | |
showers fading away. In the sunshine tomorrow, I think | :26:14. | :26:18. | |
temperatures will be up to about 22 Celsius, and even under the cloud | :26:19. | :26:24. | |
we should see 20, 21, so another warm day, almost on a par with | :26:24. | :26:27. | |
today, all the parts of Gloucestershire this afternoon got | :26:27. | :26:33. | |
to 25, 26. Looking beyond that, as we lead up towards the weekend, | :26:33. | :26:36. | |
this next weather front is making inroads towards us on Sunday, but | :26:36. | :26:42. | |
for Saturday it is high pressure in charge. By the end of Sunday, the | :26:42. | :26:46. | |
cloud is starting to increase, so it is likely to be a decent start | :26:46. | :26:51. | |
on Sunday, then starting to turn cloudy as the day wears on, but it | :26:51. | :26:57. | |
should stay dry. Greyhounds are in a lot of trouble when they are done | :26:57. | :27:00. | |
with racing, they are often in a world are problems, so if you want | :27:00. | :27:06. | |
to help them out to Ken-do along to this event on Sunday in Bristol. -- | :27:06. | :27:12. | |
you can go along. Before we go, there are big | :27:12. | :27:18. | |
problems on the A46 tonight between Bath and Bristol. There has been a | :27:18. | :27:21. | |
crash on the dual carriageway. It involved a car and a lorry and the | :27:21. | :27:26. | |
road has been closed, with long delays in the area and diversions | :27:26. | :27:30. | |
in place. Stay tuned to BBC Radio Bristol, they will let you know the | :27:30. | :27:33. |
