:00:12. > :00:16.Good evening and welcome to BBC Points West. Our headlines tonight:

:00:16. > :00:26.On the attack. An 88-year-old man takes on two bank robbers with his

:00:26. > :00:27.

:00:27. > :00:30.walking stick. I suppose he could have had a knife or a gun but

:00:30. > :00:33.instinctively I just dived in. I did what I should do.

:00:33. > :00:35.A family claim medical mistakes in Cyprus could have cost their

:00:35. > :00:39.pregnant daughter her life. The Asperger's student who's

:00:39. > :00:42.studying for a degree. He tells MPs what can be achieved with a bit of

:00:42. > :00:52.help. And lights, action and a medal for

:00:52. > :00:55.

:00:55. > :00:58.the wildlife cameraman whose images Good evening. A pensioner from Bath

:00:58. > :01:03.who tried to beat a pair of bank robbers with his walking stick has

:01:03. > :01:06.been praised for his bravery. 88- year-old Gordon King stepped in

:01:06. > :01:10.when he saw the men attacking a security van driver outside the

:01:10. > :01:16.bank. The former sergeant major said he didn't think twice about

:01:16. > :01:21.trying to stop them. Moorland Road in the Oldfield Park

:01:21. > :01:24.area of Bath. On Wednesday morning 88-year-old Gordon King was on his

:01:24. > :01:34.way to the shops. But as he passed his local bank, he realised

:01:34. > :01:38.

:01:38. > :01:42.something was very wrong. I saw the van draw are. I turned around and I

:01:42. > :01:46.had an instinct, I do not know why, and I saw a chap with a balaclava.

:01:46. > :01:50.Straight away I knew what was happening so I went in with the

:01:50. > :01:54.stick and I gave him a belt but it did not do any good but he ran away

:01:54. > :01:56.and I started hitting him over the head with the stick three or four

:01:56. > :01:59.times. During the struggle Mr King was

:02:00. > :02:02.punched to the ground and suffered a cut to the back of his head. He

:02:02. > :02:09.also hurt his shoulder and his hearing has been affected since the

:02:09. > :02:12.fall. Despite all this though he says he's glad he did what he did

:02:12. > :02:18.and would do it again in an instant. The police say they're very

:02:18. > :02:23.grateful for his help. Clearly Mr King's actions are to be commended

:02:23. > :02:27.and his family and the citizens of Bath will be grateful for his

:02:27. > :02:31.actions. He had no thought for his own safety and could see a crime in

:02:31. > :02:33.action and he instinctively went to assist the guard. He should be very

:02:33. > :02:36.much commended for his actions to date.

:02:36. > :02:38.Despite Mr King's efforts, the thieves did get away with what

:02:38. > :02:41.police describe as a significant amount of money. They're now

:02:41. > :02:44.conducting house to house enquiries and are appealing for anyone with

:02:44. > :02:48.any information to contact them. Mr King, who had himself worked as

:02:48. > :02:50.a police officer for 29 years, says he's dealt with far worse than this

:02:51. > :03:00.in the past and is slightly uncomfortable about being called a

:03:01. > :03:03.

:03:03. > :03:08.local hero. I am not a hero. I have done worse thing for a night in my

:03:08. > :03:11.life. I have had more... I have been injured more times than that.

:03:11. > :03:14.Mr King's old aluminium walking stick was broken in two during the

:03:14. > :03:17.scuffle, but he's been promised a new one by Avon and Somerset police.

:03:17. > :03:26.All he really wants though, is for the police to catch the thieves and

:03:26. > :03:29.retrieve the stolen money. We salute you, Mr King!

:03:29. > :03:32.A man has been charged with armed robbery and a firearm offence after

:03:32. > :03:35.a raid at a Wiltshire newsagents. Two men threatened a female member

:03:35. > :03:40.of staff and stole cigarettes and money from Chaplins newsagents, in

:03:40. > :03:43.Chiseldon, last week. Another man is being questioned in Swindon.

:03:43. > :03:46.The MP for Weston-super-Mare says he'll raise the issue of abuse at a

:03:46. > :03:50.primary school in the town with the government to try to ensure it

:03:50. > :03:52.doesn't happen again. Parents, schools and child protection

:03:52. > :03:58.experts are still discussing yesterday's damning report into the

:03:58. > :04:01.offences carried out by teacher Nigel Leat. Tonight the consensus

:04:01. > :04:07.is the safeguards are there but people must be prepared to act on

:04:07. > :04:10.them. The fall out from yesterday's

:04:10. > :04:20.report into Nigel Leat's abuse of young children at his school has

:04:20. > :04:21.

:04:21. > :04:24.dominated this online forum. With its founder Dr Rebecca Condron we

:04:24. > :04:30.watch some of the experts giving their assessment on Points West of

:04:30. > :04:33.what, if anything, can be done to prevent this happening again.

:04:33. > :04:37.will always get failings in any system but from what I can see and

:04:37. > :04:41.what I have heard a what I have learned, being a governor in the

:04:41. > :04:43.school, these procedures are there and we have to make sure that we

:04:43. > :04:50.follow them. And that's the crux of the issue,

:04:50. > :04:54.safeguards are there, but are only effective if people use them.

:04:54. > :04:59.I plan to do is take this up with Michael Gove, the Secretary of

:04:59. > :05:02.State to education, to ask him about the frameworks and how we can

:05:02. > :05:04.be sure that we can reassure parents that it is genuinely happy

:05:04. > :05:07.on the ground. The North Somerset Safeguarding

:05:07. > :05:09.Children Board gave its assessment of what went wrong. The school's

:05:09. > :05:16.Headteacher has since been sacked, the warning signs were there but

:05:16. > :05:21.just not heeded. Nobody really challenged it in the way it had to

:05:21. > :05:29.be challenged. No one confronted it. No one believed how serious this

:05:29. > :05:30.was. That is a lesson for us all. If we start having concerns, make

:05:30. > :05:32.Nigel Leat may well spend the rest of his life in prison. He's

:05:32. > :05:40.described as a determined sex offender, a determination that saw

:05:40. > :05:42.him slip through a net that will now be tightened once again.

:05:43. > :05:44.The family of a Gloucestershire woman, who died in Cyprus after

:05:44. > :05:50.complications with her pregnancy say they're relieved they've

:05:50. > :05:55.finally got some answers. Kalisha Gordon was on a working holiday

:05:55. > :06:05.when she became ill in 2008. Now a coroner has ruled that the actions

:06:05. > :06:07.

:06:07. > :06:10.of a doctor may have caused her death. This book is what people

:06:10. > :06:14.rutin on the day of the funeral and after...

:06:14. > :06:16.It's taken Jayne and Lloyd Gordon three years to find out why their

:06:16. > :06:20.daughter died. Kalisha was preparing to fly back to tell them

:06:20. > :06:27.she was pregnant when she became ill. She was taken to a private

:06:27. > :06:31.clinic on Aiya Nappa. And died hours later. We talked to the

:06:31. > :06:35.police and to her friends and we realised that something was wrong.

:06:35. > :06:39.It did not add up. When we got to the hospital where they transferred

:06:39. > :06:42.her, nobody wanted to talk to us. Since then the family have faced

:06:42. > :06:45.three years of campaigning and fundraising to pay for their legal

:06:45. > :06:47.battle, and for their regular flights between their home in

:06:47. > :06:51.Gloucester and Cyprus. They've just returned from the inquest into her

:06:51. > :06:54.death. And say it criticised communication between the medical

:06:54. > :07:04.staff who treated her. And found a misdiagnosis may have caused her

:07:04. > :07:05.

:07:05. > :07:12.death. The doctor involved though is adamant he did nothing wrong.

:07:12. > :07:18.The ultrasound and pictures were taken. They did not reveal the

:07:18. > :07:24.pregnancy. I did other examinations. There was no internal bleeding.

:07:24. > :07:30.That is 100%. Even her blood pressure and pulse were normal. Her

:07:30. > :07:33.tummy was very soft which would not be the case in an ectopic pregnancy.

:07:33. > :07:36.But Kalisha did have an ectopic pregnancy, which means the baby is

:07:36. > :07:39.implanted outside the uterus. They occur in around one in 80

:07:39. > :07:42.pregnancies. And in this country lead to the deaths of around five

:07:42. > :07:52.women a year. Doctors here agree it can be a difficult condition to

:07:52. > :07:52.

:07:52. > :07:58.diagnose. Looking for an ectopic pregnancy is likened to looking for

:07:58. > :08:01.a black cat in the dark. It can be extremely difficult. They mimic the

:08:01. > :08:04.symptoms of normal pregnancy and when the pregnancy first start you

:08:04. > :08:07.do not have any symptoms different from anybody else.

:08:07. > :08:14.But Kalisha Gordon's family still believe their young daughter could

:08:14. > :08:18.have been saved. Every symptom she had her lead to an alert of anybody

:08:18. > :08:23.who is qualified in gynaecology to know that it was not right.

:08:23. > :08:26.Collapsing, fainting, feeling sick, all of these things relate to the

:08:26. > :08:29.pain and everything. Now with the support of their local

:08:29. > :08:32.MP, the Gordons are planning to return to Cyprus. They say they'll

:08:32. > :08:39.keep fighting until someone's held accountable for their daughter's

:08:39. > :08:42.death. It's David and Imogen with

:08:42. > :08:45.tonight's Points West. A little later we'll have all the weekend

:08:45. > :08:52.sport including the build up to Swindon's FA Cup tie.

:08:52. > :08:54.And it's getting colder - could there be snow on the way?

:08:55. > :08:58.certainly has potential to get interesting by the end of the

:08:58. > :09:02.weekend in terms of the threat of snow developing as race front comes

:09:02. > :09:06.in from the West. Prior to then it will turn Chile over the weekend

:09:06. > :09:11.but a good deal of it will be tried. We will unravel the details for you

:09:11. > :09:14.later on. First though, more than 300

:09:14. > :09:17.soldiers have returned to Gloucester after a year long tour

:09:17. > :09:19.of Afghanistan. Seen here preparing for their deployment, the men from

:09:19. > :09:23.the Allied Rapid Reaction Corps, have spent the last 12 months

:09:23. > :09:30.helping to run NATO's headquarters in Kabul. Their families welcomed

:09:30. > :09:33.them back in Innsworth early this morning. Crews flying helicopters

:09:33. > :09:38.at the naval air station at Yeovilton say they're being put in

:09:38. > :09:40.danger by people shining laser pens at them. Three helicopters have

:09:40. > :09:45.been targeted in recent months as they practiced night manoeuvres

:09:45. > :09:50.used in Afghanistan. Pilots say the lights can dazzle them and obstruct

:09:50. > :09:54.their vision. The penalty for using unauthorised lasers can be up to

:09:54. > :09:56.five years in prison. Bristol's Twinning Association is

:09:56. > :10:01.demanding the city council reinstates funding for the post of

:10:02. > :10:05.twinning co-ordinator. Ceremonies like this one have been taking

:10:05. > :10:09.place between Bristol and its twin cities since just after the second

:10:09. > :10:14.world war. The city council currently pays for a coordinator to

:10:15. > :10:17.oversee projects. And the Twinning Association claims without that

:10:17. > :10:21.Bristol will lose important business contacts around the world.

:10:21. > :10:24.But the council says it would forge links by different means.

:10:24. > :10:29.Teenagers at some schools in the West are being shown a hard-hitting

:10:29. > :10:32.film to teach them about sexual assault. Officers from Avon and

:10:32. > :10:35.Somerset police are going into secondary schools to offer advice

:10:35. > :10:44.and teach young people about the warning signs. Chris James' report

:10:44. > :10:51.contains one victim's account of what happened to her.

:10:51. > :10:56.He leaned me up against a disused factory door and was kissing me.

:10:56. > :11:02.His hands were everywhere. It is a powerful message to youngsters

:11:02. > :11:07.because it is a true story. This woman was sexually assaulted by her

:11:07. > :11:11.friend. She has no idea -- she had no idea it was going to happen.

:11:11. > :11:17.first sexual experience and it was not meant to be like that...

:11:17. > :11:21.ordeal is being paid out two teenagers. The idea of somebody

:11:21. > :11:24.actually saying what happened to them in Bristol, these children can

:11:24. > :11:29.relate to because it is not something fictitious, it is

:11:29. > :11:32.actually an event. The DVD is just a small part of the session.

:11:32. > :11:37.Teenagers are also given information about how to avoid

:11:37. > :11:41.becoming a victim and had to recognise the signs.

:11:41. > :11:47.In 2011 there were 351 reported incidents of rape or sexual assault

:11:47. > :11:50.in this area. The victims were aged between 14 and 20 years of age. The

:11:50. > :11:54.figure has risen in the last few years and police believe the rise

:11:54. > :11:59.is because people are more confident to come forward. As young

:11:59. > :12:02.people get older they mature and they form relationships. They have

:12:02. > :12:07.contact with alcohol and they socialise. It is important that

:12:07. > :12:13.they understand what rapiers, so they can protect themselves, both

:12:13. > :12:17.from becoming victims and also from becoming perpetrators, even

:12:17. > :12:22.unwittingly. Latest figures show 93% of victims know their attacker.

:12:22. > :12:27.That fact shocked pupils that were listening. I thought it was

:12:27. > :12:34.interesting and it makes you more aware of the fact. I have learnt a

:12:34. > :12:40.lot more about how to stay safe and what to do if you were a victim.

:12:40. > :12:44.Now I know how exactly I can do things to prepare myself. Police

:12:44. > :12:48.say going into schools like this and explaining the stark reality of

:12:48. > :12:51.sexual assault is unique. It is hoped that this hard-hitting

:12:51. > :12:58.programme could be rolled out to other schools across the country

:12:58. > :13:02.later this year. A student from Weston-super-Mare is

:13:02. > :13:06.calling for more to be done to help people diagnosed with autism.

:13:06. > :13:10.Steven Philp who has Asperger's has been to London to address a

:13:10. > :13:17.parliamentary committee on the subject. Doctors said they may be

:13:17. > :13:19.able to soon identify the condition in children as young a six months

:13:19. > :13:23.old. Whether it be a thing or an

:13:23. > :13:28.instrument or even a band... Steven Philp has faced many challenges,

:13:28. > :13:32.spending much of his life in special schools. He came to Weston

:13:32. > :13:38.College without any qualifications but now with the help of specialist

:13:38. > :13:45.daft he is working towards a degree. What it has given me is that there

:13:45. > :13:49.is a lot of hope and support that I can have, as long as I have it in

:13:49. > :13:56.front of May, and that is where I think that students like myself

:13:56. > :14:00.should all follow. Some of the staff here have been trained to

:14:00. > :14:04.help with autistic students. The college offers a specialist degree

:14:04. > :14:08.that enables them to understand and support people's with various

:14:08. > :14:13.learning difficulties. A number of years ago we recognised that we did

:14:14. > :14:16.not have staff who were really able to deal with the range of learning

:14:16. > :14:20.difficulties and difficulties that we had come into the college. We

:14:20. > :14:24.felt that if we were to work with people with learning difficulties

:14:24. > :14:28.and autism then we needed to understand that and we needed to be

:14:28. > :14:31.trained. Stephen now wants to help others who are autistic and he is

:14:31. > :14:35.going to London to address MPs about the barriers he has faced

:14:35. > :14:42.during his life, all made worse due to the lack of understanding about

:14:42. > :14:47.his condition. My speed was amazing to do. It was quite an honour to do

:14:47. > :14:53.so again at the Houses of Parliament. I think I have helped

:14:53. > :14:57.achieve a destination and, or an inspiration rather, for the

:14:58. > :15:02.campaign about autism. Stephen says his aim is to get a degree and to

:15:02. > :15:12.start work, an ambition which he believes needs to be available to

:15:12. > :15:15.

:15:15. > :15:19.Now sport. This should bring back a few memories, Swindon Town playing.

:15:20. > :15:23.It certainly will. You have a good memory as well. Snow's Swindon Town

:15:23. > :15:28.fan is ever going to forget the play-off final in 19 and three

:15:28. > :15:31.between these two clubs. Swindon won an absolute classic at Wembley

:15:31. > :15:36.Stadium, four goals to three to clinch a place in the Premier

:15:36. > :15:39.League. Glenn Hoddle leading his side victory. Both these clubs have

:15:39. > :15:43.fallen on harder times since and there are currently two divisions

:15:43. > :15:47.between them, but Swindon caused the shock of the last round when

:15:47. > :15:50.they beat Premier League Wigan. Geoff Twentyman has been to meet

:15:50. > :15:58.one of their star performers, Matt Ritchie, whose confident of

:15:58. > :16:03.creating more headlines. The gaffer said about playing on

:16:03. > :16:07.the right, I have been enjoying it, cutting inside and hitting shots

:16:08. > :16:12.off. The lads have been getting on my back, saying I should too much

:16:12. > :16:19.but if you don't shoot, you don't score. I keep doing what I am doing

:16:19. > :16:23.and hopefully they keep going in the back of the net but I will keep

:16:23. > :16:26.doing what I'm doing and hopefully score more goals. The gaffer, what

:16:26. > :16:30.is he like behind closed doors? We see a flamboyant man on the

:16:30. > :16:34.touchline. What is he like in the dressing room? He is brilliant. I

:16:34. > :16:39.can't speak highly enough of him and I speak for all the lads in

:16:39. > :16:44.that respect. He is quite fiery and changing room but I think he has

:16:44. > :16:50.calmed down quite a lot compared to the start, his knowledge and

:16:50. > :16:56.coaching is first class, I think. All the lads respect him and liked

:16:56. > :16:59.the way he is doing things. Last week, you missed a penalty. He gave

:16:59. > :17:04.you a kick up the backside on the way off. What is that -- what is

:17:04. > :17:08.that about? He gives me stickle the time in training, I am read -- I am

:17:08. > :17:13.rubbish at penalties. I missed one but everyone misses them at some

:17:13. > :17:18.point. It is a bit disappointing but I will do better next time,

:17:18. > :17:24.hopefully it'll stop Leicester away, you can be there? We have beaten

:17:24. > :17:28.Colchester, Huddersfield, and the teams above us, we are going into

:17:28. > :17:32.it confident. They are a good team and they have picked up lately but

:17:32. > :17:37.we will give them a good game, I am sure. Tomorrow was a tough game but

:17:37. > :17:43.I think Matt Ritchie and Co will be in Sunday's draw for the 5th round.

:17:43. > :17:48.Cue more excitement. BBC will show up's coverage starts

:17:48. > :17:55.at midday tomorrow, live from Leicester's King Power Stadium --

:17:55. > :18:00.Nicky Maynard will be in the Bristol City squad to face Reading.

:18:00. > :18:03.He was given permission to speak to Wigan earlier this week. It was

:18:04. > :18:08.about a potential move. He has remained at Ashton Gate. Mark

:18:08. > :18:12.McGhee takes charge of his first home game at Bristol Rovers. They

:18:12. > :18:17.play Bradford City. He got off to a winning start last weekend away at

:18:17. > :18:21.Cheltenham. In rugby, Bath can go a long way towards clinching a semi-

:18:21. > :18:25.final spot in the LV Cup. Captain Stuart Hooper returns for the home

:18:25. > :18:31.game against Northampton. Both sides are top of their respective

:18:31. > :18:36.pools. Gloucester play Cardiff and have made 12 changes from last

:18:36. > :18:40.weekend's Heineken Cup match. For the third year in a row the Bristol

:18:40. > :18:45.Flyers basketball team will compete in the final of the National Cup.

:18:45. > :18:49.Two years ago they picked up the trophy for the first time when they

:18:49. > :18:53.beat Manchester Magic in the dramatic overtime period. This year

:18:53. > :18:55.they play the London Leopards and they are in the running to win the

:18:56. > :19:01.league again and their continued success has had a knock-on effect

:19:01. > :19:08.in terms of the popularity of the sport in the city.

:19:08. > :19:11.Post-pub, good, high, low, open up, good job. This is Filton College's

:19:11. > :19:18.under 14 sec, the Flyers of the future. There is coaching available

:19:18. > :19:22.for over 200 boys, some as young as seven. Since the Flyers formed in

:19:22. > :19:27.2004 they have seen their numbers grow tenfold. The number one

:19:27. > :19:33.priority is increasing the people who are interested in the sport and

:19:33. > :19:36.also with the success, it could be in the Olympics, I think their

:19:36. > :19:43.participation in Bristol but the whole country is increasing and

:19:43. > :19:49.that is great to see. Basketball's profile is still light years away

:19:49. > :19:54.from its status in America, where players earn millions of dollars

:19:54. > :19:57.and play in front of major TV audiences. The Flyers do have two

:19:57. > :20:02.full-time professionals imported from the state. It is almost like

:20:02. > :20:05.football for the English, every kid grows up and wants to be in the NBA,

:20:05. > :20:10.whether it is a valid dream or not. It is a bit different over here,

:20:10. > :20:13.isn't it? There isn't a lot of media coverage. It is picking up a

:20:13. > :20:18.bit now the Olympics are coming and hopefully we can build on that for

:20:18. > :20:23.the future. Most of the players and Bristol are students all have jobs,

:20:23. > :20:27.Mike Chris Bourne, who works at Southmead Hospital. It can be

:20:27. > :20:30.difficult, obviously. We trained Kai Ide LAP -- quite late, so we

:20:30. > :20:34.have late nights and get up early for work and it takes up time at

:20:34. > :20:38.weekends but it is trying to find a way to strike a balance. If you

:20:38. > :20:42.ever get injured you worried the right place? That is it, I know a

:20:42. > :20:45.lot of good physiotherapist so it does help in that respect.

:20:45. > :20:48.Flyers hope to start up to the great British League one day but

:20:48. > :20:53.that would mean all the squad going full-time and a massive financial

:20:53. > :20:56.investment. Bristol is one of the power houses when it comes to

:20:56. > :21:00.British basketball and we are slowly but surely getting the

:21:00. > :21:02.recognition and respect from the rest of the teams that we deserve,

:21:02. > :21:06.so we are getting there but it starts from things like this

:21:06. > :21:13.weekend really. A win in the Cup final on Sunday would certainly

:21:13. > :21:18.strengthen their reputation. Tip-off is 3:30pm on Sunday

:21:18. > :21:21.afternoon in Sheffield. We will let you know how they get on.

:21:21. > :21:27.They are celebrated sporting achievement in Wells tonight. The

:21:27. > :21:30.former long jumper, Mary Rand, says it is fantastic that she has been

:21:30. > :21:36.awarded the Freedom of the City. Mary became the first British woman

:21:36. > :21:38.to win an Olympic track and field medal when she brought home gold in

:21:38. > :21:42.1964. A campaign to give her the honour has been gathering momentum

:21:42. > :21:48.in recent weeks and last night the decision was made to grant the

:21:48. > :21:53.honour. On the BBC's Inside Out this programme on Monday night and

:21:53. > :21:58.you can see her reaction as the news was broken to her at her home

:21:58. > :22:00.in California. Now to a man who is used to working

:22:00. > :22:05.in the most extreme conditions and we are not talking about David.

:22:05. > :22:12.Doug Allan is a wildlife cameraman and he has filled everything from

:22:12. > :22:17.polar bears in the North Pole, to killer whales in Antarctica. He has

:22:17. > :22:21.been honoured at Buckingham Palace this week for a second time. He is

:22:22. > :22:29.here now. Congratulations. It is nice to have the royal recognition,

:22:29. > :22:33.not once, but twice. These are my two medals. I was awarded the first

:22:33. > :22:40.one in 1983 and the day before yesterday, or was it yesterday, I

:22:40. > :22:45.have lost track of time, I got a bar, which means I can put one on

:22:45. > :22:49.top of the other and I have been awarded two medals. Prince Charles

:22:49. > :22:53.gave you the award. I think we can see pictures of you. You had a long

:22:53. > :22:58.chat, didn't you? We did have a long chat. I remembered that

:22:58. > :23:02.Charles, when he was serving as a naval officer, he had done a dive

:23:02. > :23:06.under the Arctic ice so we had a fair old chat about that, comparing

:23:07. > :23:13.how cold it was. Tell us about your career and what you have been

:23:13. > :23:23.filming. I filled for flows -- Frozen Planet and human planet and

:23:23. > :23:30.I have been busy since I first went to the polls in 1976. I have had

:23:30. > :23:34.plenty of times with polar bears and penguins and I ended up staying

:23:34. > :23:38.warm while others chill-out. It is an extraordinary job. How do you

:23:38. > :23:41.feel when you're about to set off on an expedition? It is always very

:23:41. > :23:46.exciting because with these big series you get the chance to go for

:23:46. > :23:49.something which no one has tried before so there is always that big

:23:49. > :23:53.buzz of anticipation. But at the same time you realise that you are

:23:53. > :23:58.going after something new, like these killer whales, for example.

:23:58. > :24:02.When they make that wave, as they will in a minute, to push the sea

:24:02. > :24:09.off the ice, this behaviour has never been filled properly before

:24:09. > :24:14.and this is me controlling a special camera. There goes the

:24:14. > :24:17.animal. The chances to film that are awesome. I still don't know how

:24:17. > :24:22.you did that, how you got to be in the right place at the right time?

:24:22. > :24:26.There is an element of luck. We were fortunate to find probably the

:24:26. > :24:29.one port of killer whales and the whole world that actually does that

:24:29. > :24:32.behaviour but on the other hand we went down with a skipper who really

:24:32. > :24:37.was willing to take his little boat and batted around in amongst the

:24:37. > :24:42.ice and we had two cameramen covering it. When I knew of next?

:24:42. > :24:52.have done a book next, so I am around for a while doing PR for

:24:52. > :24:53.

:24:53. > :25:03.that but the next shoot could be... Were a glad you like the cold

:25:03. > :25:03.

:25:03. > :25:08.Doug Allan would probably say it is topical compared to the experiences

:25:08. > :25:12.he has had. We deal with the threat of snow. For the most part the

:25:12. > :25:16.weekend is going to be dry, crisp, there will be some frost, fog,

:25:16. > :25:19.potentially some icy stretches on roads tonight. High pressure is

:25:19. > :25:23.dominating the pattern into tomorrow. A pretty benign affair.

:25:23. > :25:29.As we get to the end of the weekend, all eyes on this warm front which

:25:29. > :25:31.is coming in, trying to do battle with cold are rare. There is the

:25:32. > :25:35.recipe to start to turn some rain to snow. A lot of uncertainty on

:25:35. > :25:40.the position of this warm front, a lot of uncertainty on the timing of

:25:40. > :25:44.it. Probably snow will be light but we have to keep an eye on a

:25:44. > :25:51.forecast. This evening, further showers, must like last night. Some

:25:51. > :25:56.have had a wintery mix. We are watching this Arcos showers moving

:25:56. > :25:59.across the area, may be giving us no threat across high ground. Once

:25:59. > :26:02.they are out of the way this evening the skies will be clearing

:26:02. > :26:07.across western districts and out towards the east there will be a

:26:07. > :26:10.tendency to find more cloud. Generally light winds, a fair

:26:10. > :26:17.recipe for Richard Knight. Tonbridge is easy -- easily getting

:26:17. > :26:20.down to freeze and. -- freezing. The threat is icy stretches on

:26:20. > :26:27.roads, do take it easy on the untreated services. Tomorrow

:26:28. > :26:33.morning, we start on a crisp note, some frost and fog. All of us

:26:33. > :26:38.brighten up. The best of the clear skies are West. A decent day for

:26:38. > :26:43.all of us. Temperatures will have been chilly, around four to six

:26:43. > :26:49.Celsius. No real wind chill. Another cold, frosty, for United to

:26:49. > :26:52.Sunday and on Sunday a good deal of the date is going to be dry. The

:26:52. > :26:57.cloud increasing as we get through later into the morning and into the

:26:57. > :27:01.afternoon heralding the arrival of the warm front. The position is

:27:01. > :27:07.very critical to this. It could be 100 miles further this way, or that

:27:07. > :27:11.way. The threat of some snow by the end of Sunday it into Monday starts

:27:11. > :27:16.to increase. Temperatures will be cold on Sunday, around three or

:27:16. > :27:19.four Celsius. As we head into next week it remains pretty chilly. The

:27:19. > :27:28.long-range forecasts look interested in to February, we could

:27:28. > :27:34.get significantly colder but that It is looking cold. I am back with
