Good evening and welcome to BBC Points West. Our headlines tonight. | :00:10. | :00:14. | |
A warning to young women. Thousands of students are being told to be on | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
their guard tonight, exactly a week after a teenager was dragged off the | :00:19. | :00:28. | |
street. Try not to walk alone. Be mindful. | :00:29. | :00:31. | |
A growing hunger for food banks A Wiltshire charity says demand has | :00:32. | :00:33. | |
trebled. Going off track, how this derailment | :00:34. | :00:37. | |
could affect your journey for days. Mustard gas and motorbikes, how West | :00:38. | :00:40. | |
Country industry contributed to World War I. | :00:41. | :00:48. | |
Good evening. Police are mounting extra patrols in Bristol tonight, a | :00:49. | :00:53. | |
week after a woman suffered a serious sexual assault. The | :00:54. | :00:56. | |
19`year`old was dragged into a car park just off one of the main roads | :00:57. | :01:00. | |
in the city centre, where hundreds of students were celebrating the | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
start of the new term. Sally Challoner is where the attack took | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
place. Sally, what do the officers hope to achieve tonight? They want | :01:09. | :01:16. | |
to remind all of the attack. They want to jog some remedies and appeal | :01:17. | :01:20. | |
for with buses. The attack took place barely a week ago just yards | :01:21. | :01:26. | |
from this busy road. The woman was dragged just yards up this road | :01:27. | :01:31. | |
wishy suffered a sexual assault They are appealing for with buses. | :01:32. | :01:38. | |
`` witnesses. This was the scene nearly a week ago. An intensive | :01:39. | :01:41. | |
police investigation of the scene where a young woman was subjected to | :01:42. | :01:44. | |
what police describe as a terrifying sexual assault. It happened on | :01:45. | :01:48. | |
Belgrave Road, just off one of the busiest streets in Bristol. Tonight | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
police will be out again. They want more information to be able to catch | :01:53. | :02:00. | |
a dangerous man. Parliament today is to appeal for witnesses to come | :02:01. | :02:05. | |
forward. Significantly, we know there were three skateboarders in | :02:06. | :02:09. | |
the area at the specs omitted to this attack. We would like them to | :02:10. | :02:14. | |
come forward to speak to us. Clifton would have been busy last Wednesday | :02:15. | :02:17. | |
night, with thousands of people in the pubs and clubs up and down | :02:18. | :02:24. | |
Whiteladies Road. The city's two universities have reiterated the | :02:25. | :02:27. | |
advice they give to new students to stay safe In the year to April, | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
police in Bristol dealt with just under 200 reports of rape, attempted | :02:32. | :02:37. | |
rape and sexual assault. We are giving practical advice about | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
things like and not go home alone. Look after your friends. We want | :02:43. | :03:01. | |
people to have a safe evening. In the vast majority of those cases, | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
the victim knew the attacker. Assaults by a stranger remain very | :03:05. | :03:12. | |
rare. Police will be out from 1 o'clock tonight giving advice, but | :03:13. | :03:15. | |
also hoping to find witnesses to solve this distressing case. I have | :03:16. | :03:23. | |
a description the victim has given. It is a male, six foot one tall No | :03:24. | :03:33. | |
facial hair. Aged in his early to mid 20s. If anyone has information | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
about the assault, get in touch A company is going to be prosecuted | :03:38. | :03:45. | |
after a teenager drowned at the Cotswold Country Park and Beach | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
Kajil Devi died in July 2010. An inquest found her death was an | :03:50. | :03:51. | |
accident. Tonight, Cotswold District Council said it would be prosecuting | :03:52. | :03:54. | |
WM Active Ltd under health and safety legislation. The company told | :03:55. | :04:01. | |
the BBC it wasn't yet in a position to comment. | :04:02. | :04:04. | |
New figures out today show there's been another fall in unemployment. | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
The number of people out of work in the West Country and claiming | :04:10. | :04:15. | |
benefit fell by 4% to 40,378. It's the seventh month in a row that | :04:16. | :04:19. | |
unemployment has come down here but there are still twice as many people | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
out of work as there were before the recession in 2008. Experts say | :04:24. | :04:28. | |
that's why demand for food banks is so high, even though unemployment is | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
now falling. In fact, the Wiltshire charity which | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
runs most of the country's foodbanks said today that the number of people | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
using their services has trebled. The Trussell Trust says between | :04:41. | :04:43. | |
April and September they provided food for 350,000 people and claim | :04:44. | :04:46. | |
the government's welfare reforms are partly to blame. Here's our | :04:47. | :04:56. | |
political editor Paul Barltrop. He's worked most of his life, but for the | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
last eight months, Graham Rideout's been unemployed and on benefits | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
However, after missing an appointment, the Swindon Job Centre | :05:04. | :05:11. | |
halted payments. I found it horrendously difficult. Obstacles | :05:12. | :05:15. | |
were put in front of you for the Uber were not helping and not | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
communicating with you. Such people were not communicating with you So | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
he turned for help to the Swindon foodbank. Donated supplies are | :05:27. | :05:28. | |
gathered to feed ever`increasing numbers. Our actual demand is 2 % up | :05:29. | :05:38. | |
on last year. They distribute food, enough for three days, to those like | :05:39. | :05:46. | |
Graham given vouchers by agencies. I had to come to the food bank. You | :05:47. | :05:51. | |
can only come twice. I had to sell things in order to pay for things. | :05:52. | :05:54. | |
The help is temporary, tiding people over while they get back on | :05:55. | :05:57. | |
track.,It's not just Swindon. The West has dozens of foodbanks, | :05:58. | :05:59. | |
including in places like Cirencester including in places like Cirencester | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
Street. The growth has been so rapid the charity are calling for a | :06:04. | :06:10. | |
government inquiry. We are the seventh richest nation in the world. | :06:11. | :06:13. | |
It is scandalous that so many people are finding themselves in deep | :06:14. | :06:16. | |
difficulty. A lot of the reason behind this is problems with our | :06:17. | :06:22. | |
social security system with the welfare system changes which have | :06:23. | :06:27. | |
not been implemented efficiently. So what's driving the increase? Well, | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
the benefits system is undergoing radical changes. The charity point | :06:31. | :06:33. | |
to several: The Under Occupancy Charge, which critics call the | :06:34. | :06:36. | |
bedroom tax; big cuts in the crisis loans which help people through | :06:37. | :06:39. | |
emergencies; and a sharp increase in sanctions, where benefits are | :06:40. | :06:42. | |
stopped temporarily. Then there are wider economic factors: wages for | :06:43. | :06:49. | |
many have fallen back while food and energy prices have surged. There is | :06:50. | :06:52. | |
though another reason. There are more foodbanks than ever, 400 | :06:53. | :06:55. | |
nationally, with two or three more opening every week. This was a | :06:56. | :07:04. | |
movement that built up under the Labour government and continues | :07:05. | :07:08. | |
today. We have been frank and say job centres should be able to point | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
people towards food banks if they are in need and that has led to an | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
increase in their useful top we went to see more people in work providing | :07:18. | :07:21. | |
for themselves and their families. Back in Swindon, Graham is trying to | :07:22. | :07:24. | |
get his benefits sorted. Until then he'll go on taking charity. Very | :07:25. | :07:32. | |
degrading. I do not want to do it but I have got to do it. He is just | :07:33. | :07:36. | |
one of hundreds of thousands turning to foodbanks in modern Britain. | :07:37. | :07:42. | |
Labour MP Frank Field advises the government on poverty. Today, he | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
announced he was setting up a cross`party group of backbench MPs | :07:47. | :07:50. | |
to investigate. Earlier, he told me of his concerns. I think this is the | :07:51. | :08:00. | |
real crunch now. Either we do not have an enquiry and pretended it is | :08:01. | :08:06. | |
all being looked after by the big society happily and we would go down | :08:07. | :08:09. | |
the American troop where food banks, food stamps and all of this palaver | :08:10. | :08:16. | |
will become part of our welfare state or the country decides it does | :08:17. | :08:20. | |
not want that and wishes to have mapped out for it and alternative | :08:21. | :08:23. | |
for the pit would be appalling if we got the American model without | :08:24. | :08:28. | |
debate all without any decision by voters to say that is the sort of | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
Britain we went to see developed in the next ten years. | :08:33. | :08:38. | |
A team from the Rail Investigation branch are heading to a site in | :08:39. | :08:42. | |
Gloucester where a freight train has derailed. They need to work out how | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
they can remove the train and assess the damage to the tracks. The | :08:48. | :08:50. | |
derailment has meant delays and disruption for commuters in the | :08:51. | :09:06. | |
area. You can probably just the sum fluorescent jackets in the distance. | :09:07. | :09:14. | |
Investigators have arrived at the scene will stop one of the | :09:15. | :09:20. | |
containers was still here and our ago. It has been moved out of the | :09:21. | :09:25. | |
way. This is being treated as a priority incident. It happened last | :09:26. | :09:30. | |
night. You have a container stickier and the flake trailer was on the | :09:31. | :09:37. | |
edge of the track further down the line. Disruption has only been minor | :09:38. | :09:43. | |
the most commuters. This is a major incident. It has emerged this is | :09:44. | :09:48. | |
more serious than first thought The container, which was at the end of | :09:49. | :09:51. | |
the freight train, was empty but would normally be full of goods | :09:52. | :09:54. | |
destined for supermarkets. It now lies close to the edge of the | :09:55. | :09:57. | |
embankment after coming loose from its wagon last night. The driver | :09:58. | :10:00. | |
didn't realise until further down the track. The police helicopter was | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
called into help find where it was in the dark. A quarter of a mile | :10:05. | :10:10. | |
further towards Gloucester a second container is stuck. Behind it, the | :10:11. | :10:15. | |
wagon from the derailed container that had been dragged along the | :10:16. | :10:20. | |
track. The damage is clear to see after it hit the central barrier | :10:21. | :10:26. | |
bringing the whole train to a halt. Investigators from the Rail Accident | :10:27. | :10:29. | |
Investigation Branch have been on the track all day working with | :10:30. | :10:32. | |
Network Rail and the freight company to find out what happened. | :10:33. | :10:50. | |
Disruption to major services has been minimal. At least two bridges | :10:51. | :10:53. | |
and two level crossings between Lydney and Gloucester, plus parts of | :10:54. | :10:56. | |
the track have been damaged. The RMT union told the BBC this was the | :10:57. | :11:00. | |
second such incident within 24 hours and with the container in Gloucester | :11:01. | :11:03. | |
lying close to homes and businesses said it was a miracle no one was | :11:04. | :11:06. | |
injured. Disruption to major services has been minimal although | :11:07. | :11:09. | |
those travelling from Cheltenham and Gloucester to Lydney are being put | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
on a bus adding an hour to journey times. Passengers going to Cardiff | :11:14. | :11:16. | |
are being diverted via Bristol. With a huge engineering project no ahead | :11:17. | :11:20. | |
of them network rail said it may not be until Sunday before the line can | :11:21. | :11:28. | |
reopen. The advice if you are travelling in the Wales the Forest | :11:29. | :11:30. | |
of Dean from Gloucester Cheltenham is to check with your train | :11:31. | :11:38. | |
operating company first. It looks as if work is going to carry on into | :11:39. | :11:44. | |
the night here. Did you get my phone call? I did. | :11:45. | :11:47. | |
You're watching your regional news programme BBC Points West on this | :11:48. | :11:52. | |
Wednesday evening. Ian will be here with the weather forecast shortly. | :11:53. | :11:55. | |
Yes, stay with us for that, plus there's much more still to bring | :11:56. | :11:59. | |
you. Including: Will your child s school be open or closed tomorrow? | :12:00. | :12:03. | |
We report on the teachers' strike taking place across the region | :12:04. | :12:04. | |
tomorrow. The hospital inspector says Bath's | :12:05. | :12:13. | |
Royal United Hospital has been putting patients at risk because of | :12:14. | :12:17. | |
the way it keeps their medical records. A recent inspection by the | :12:18. | :12:21. | |
Care Quality Commission found important notes and details were | :12:22. | :12:24. | |
being kept in all sorts of ways including on pieces of papers kept | :12:25. | :12:30. | |
in nurses' pockets. Our Health Correspondent Matthew Hill reports. | :12:31. | :12:35. | |
When it comes to frail elderly patients` keeping a record of what | :12:36. | :12:38. | |
they eat and drink is essential for their safety. But according to an | :12:39. | :12:43. | |
inspection in June by the care quality commission of the hospital, | :12:44. | :12:46. | |
records including those for fluid intake were not being completed | :12:47. | :12:51. | |
consistently. According to one chart, a patient had only drunk a | :12:52. | :12:55. | |
third of a litre of water in 24 hours. Another who couldn't reach | :12:56. | :12:59. | |
their water jug told an inspector "I get thirsty andI don't know how to | :13:00. | :13:09. | |
get a drink if I want one." We found there was not consistent use of | :13:10. | :13:14. | |
these records. It is important and `` information and it is important | :13:15. | :13:23. | |
to know the nutrition is `` people require. It puts people at risk | :13:24. | :13:29. | |
This is the new system of record keeping that the trust has | :13:30. | :13:32. | |
introduced as a response to the report. It is about recording the | :13:33. | :13:39. | |
assessment we undertake in terms of nutrition and hydration. It is about | :13:40. | :13:46. | |
recording accurately and making sure it is fully documented. They say | :13:47. | :13:50. | |
details are now put in one place. The CQC also found problems | :13:51. | :13:53. | |
surrounding the dignity of patients There were reports that female | :13:54. | :13:56. | |
patients were seen on the toilet with the doors wide open. Another | :13:57. | :13:59. | |
patient was observed in their soiled bed for ten minutes before staff | :14:00. | :14:02. | |
came to help them .And another struggled to stand with a Zimmer | :14:03. | :14:06. | |
frame. Yet, nursing staff did not help them. The trust has completely | :14:07. | :14:08. | |
refurbished this dementia ward. It says these were isolated incidents. | :14:09. | :14:15. | |
This is not the first time inspectors have raised concerns | :14:16. | :14:22. | |
There were issues about privacy and dignity with for instance 22 men and | :14:23. | :14:29. | |
women having to use the same shower. Staff were so rushed off their feet | :14:30. | :14:33. | |
and cars of the huge demand that some safety checks were not being | :14:34. | :14:37. | |
carried out. The Royal United Hospital has been given until the | :14:38. | :14:40. | |
end of November to make urgent improvements. Then, in December the | :14:41. | :14:43. | |
new chief inspector of hospitals, who has already looked around | :14:44. | :14:45. | |
Musgrove Park Hospital in Taunton, will be coming to Bath to make sure | :14:46. | :14:47. | |
patients are being treated properly. Dorset police say they are linking | :14:48. | :14:58. | |
the murder of a 42`year`old man in Bournemouth with a fatal road | :14:59. | :15:02. | |
accident in Wiltshire. The body of Ibrahim Youseuf was found at his | :15:03. | :15:06. | |
flat in Boscombe on Friday. Mr Youseuf, who ran a car wash nearby, | :15:07. | :15:10. | |
had been stabbed. Police say the motorist who died when he collided | :15:11. | :15:13. | |
with a lorry near Trowbridge knew the murder victim. Detectives say | :15:14. | :15:18. | |
they have evidence to link him to the murder scene. We are not looking | :15:19. | :15:26. | |
for anybody else in connection with that murder now but we are appealing | :15:27. | :15:31. | |
for witnesses. Specifically, around last Thursday evening between eight | :15:32. | :15:37. | |
o'clock and eight 30 when we are aware there was an agreement that | :15:38. | :15:42. | |
took place within five Gloucester Rd. Anybody who can give us | :15:43. | :15:52. | |
information about the man and how he ran his business would be | :15:53. | :16:07. | |
appreciated. The NUT and NAS`UWT are taking industrial action tomorrow. | :16:08. | :16:13. | |
Pedants have had to take a day off work to look after their youngsters. | :16:14. | :16:31. | |
The government wants a longer school day and year and there are fears | :16:32. | :16:38. | |
over pensions. Unions criticised the education secretary for not | :16:39. | :16:46. | |
listening to concerns. He is not listening. He does not have the | :16:47. | :16:51. | |
relevant experience as to what happens in schools. The changes keep | :16:52. | :16:57. | |
coming in and it is getting on top of this. Nothing seems to be getting | :16:58. | :17:02. | |
better. For many teachers, this would be the first time on strike. I | :17:03. | :17:09. | |
have to take a day off work tomorrow. Do you sympathise with the | :17:10. | :17:17. | |
teachers? They do a good job. I have to sympathise with them. It is | :17:18. | :17:22. | |
difficult for the parents to reorganise this but it is important | :17:23. | :17:29. | |
that they have their say. The government say less than a quarter | :17:30. | :17:32. | |
of teachers voted for a strike and added it will hold back the bills' | :17:33. | :17:44. | |
education. We should talk about the pay teachers will get as well as | :17:45. | :17:53. | |
existing pay. Teachers will get paid for good work they do in the | :17:54. | :18:00. | |
classroom. 85% of schools in Bristol will be closed or partially closed | :18:01. | :18:05. | |
tomorrow. This primary School in Kingswood will be open tomorrow but | :18:06. | :18:10. | |
one member of staff said some members of staff simply cannot | :18:11. | :18:15. | |
afford to go on strike as they would lose a day 's wage. We will be | :18:16. | :18:19. | |
reporting on the effect of the strike tomorrow. | :18:20. | :18:28. | |
Thousands of new homes and businesses could be built in Bath if | :18:29. | :18:31. | |
multi`million pound flood defence plans revealed today go ahead. Bath | :18:32. | :18:35. | |
and North East Somerset Council say their ?5`million Bath Quays | :18:36. | :18:37. | |
Waterside Project in the city centre will enable regeneration to take | :18:38. | :18:40. | |
place. Our Bath reporter Ali Vowles has been finding out what it will | :18:41. | :18:44. | |
mean for the city. This is the centre of Bath and until the early | :18:45. | :18:48. | |
seventies the southern end of the city was prone to flooding from the | :18:49. | :18:51. | |
River Avon. It took the opening of Poulteney Weir and the sluice gate | :18:52. | :18:55. | |
to sort out the problem. Now an area downstream from the bus and train | :18:56. | :18:59. | |
station to Green Park is to get its own flood defences. The developments | :19:00. | :19:03. | |
come with a lot of promises. You may remember James Dyson had to | :19:04. | :19:21. | |
drop plans to build his ?56`million school on this stretch. The | :19:22. | :19:23. | |
Environment Agency said the flood risk was too high. The council say | :19:24. | :19:28. | |
this should sort out those kinds of problems. From a planning | :19:29. | :19:37. | |
perspective, enabling these plans to move forward will open up sites in | :19:38. | :19:41. | |
the enterprise editor. There will not be the problems we have seen | :19:42. | :19:45. | |
before. Under the plans, Avon Street car park and the coach park will go | :19:46. | :19:49. | |
and the road by the river will be redirected. Eventually there'll be | :19:50. | :19:52. | |
more bridges to connect the north and south of the city. For those who | :19:53. | :19:56. | |
already operate businesses on the river, a sigh of relief. The town | :19:57. | :20:03. | |
has turned its back on the river for a number of years. Down river is a | :20:04. | :20:08. | |
mess. Most people are in agreement that for a tourist city, the river | :20:09. | :20:11. | |
is underused and not loved enough. It's hoped work to start | :20:12. | :20:14. | |
reconnecting the River Avon to the heart of Bath will be become a | :20:15. | :20:26. | |
reality by next year. Everybody wants to be by the liver. It will | :20:27. | :20:29. | |
create jobs and a great social activity. People love the activity | :20:30. | :20:34. | |
and deliver with both small `` moving. And one thing is certain the | :20:35. | :20:41. | |
transformation will make this area of the city look a very different | :20:42. | :20:43. | |
place in the coming years. The BBC has announced plans for a | :20:44. | :20:53. | |
series of programmes next year to mark the 100th anniversary of the | :20:54. | :20:58. | |
start of World War I. The conflict wiped out a generation of young men | :20:59. | :21:01. | |
with almost every family and village touched with tragedy. While the men | :21:02. | :21:07. | |
fought in France, here, West Country industry was geared towards | :21:08. | :21:09. | |
supporting them in some surprising ways, as I've been finding out. | :21:10. | :21:15. | |
Gas! Gas! Gas! When the cry went up, the soldiers faced another terror. | :21:16. | :21:22. | |
Burning skin and eyes, blistering throat and lungs. The British and | :21:23. | :21:27. | |
the Germans tried to smoke each other out of the trenches. At home, | :21:28. | :21:32. | |
every sinew of the nation was turned to war and Avonmouth was chosen by | :21:33. | :21:38. | |
Lord Kitchener for special duties. Here, on what's now an industrial | :21:39. | :21:40. | |
estate, stood a chemical weapons factory. On this site they worked in | :21:41. | :21:45. | |
relentless shifts, filling shells with mustard gas. This was one of | :21:46. | :21:57. | |
the key installations in 1918 for the production of mustard gas and | :21:58. | :22:00. | |
getting to the Western front. It does cover the whole of what is now | :22:01. | :22:06. | |
the trading estate. The buildings have been replaced but that | :22:07. | :22:09. | |
occasional buildings that survived such as this one over here. The | :22:10. | :22:17. | |
whole of Avonmouth was working for the war effort. Many of the workers | :22:18. | :22:21. | |
were women who played football for Shirehampton. How sweet the fresh | :22:22. | :22:25. | |
air must have smelt after the stench and dangers of the factory. And | :22:26. | :22:27. | |
talking of danger, these motorbike riders who took messages to the | :22:28. | :22:31. | |
front also had a unique West Country link. This magnificent machine is | :22:32. | :22:42. | |
one of the contributions by the West Country to the war. It is a Douglas | :22:43. | :22:47. | |
motorbike made in Kingswood. Bill Douglas's great grandfather thought | :22:48. | :22:51. | |
he signed up to provide 300 bikes. An office boy noticed it was 30 per | :22:52. | :23:00. | |
month. They went out and dropped back all the motorcycles that are | :23:01. | :23:05. | |
out in shops and in places all over the country and sub `` supplied the | :23:06. | :23:09. | |
first man. They started building this factory with canvas marquees. | :23:10. | :23:17. | |
People worked in producing motorcycles and the factory was | :23:18. | :23:20. | |
built over their heads. Douglas Motorbikes helped win the war but | :23:21. | :23:23. | |
didn't survive the peace. The factory building is now used by a | :23:24. | :23:33. | |
German company making brakes. Dig around a bit and you can find | :23:34. | :23:39. | |
evidence of the war. When the war ended, the seller Ayrshire was | :23:40. | :23:44. | |
concreted over and they reckon inside the seller at some brand name | :23:45. | :23:49. | |
and used motorbikes just waiting for future generations to uncover them. | :23:50. | :23:52. | |
There are clues hidden everywhere. These World War I rail lines in | :23:53. | :23:56. | |
Avonmouth point us towards 1914 and the Great War. We all have our own | :23:57. | :24:07. | |
personal stories. Whether we lost a relative at different or maybe our | :24:08. | :24:13. | |
relatives were working in munitions factories and helping the war | :24:14. | :24:16. | |
effort. We all have a story to tell. The war touched the lives of many of | :24:17. | :24:19. | |
us with our grandfathers in the trenches or our families on the Home | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
Front. In 2014, we will remember them. | :24:24. | :24:27. | |
If there's a place in the West that's linked to World War I that | :24:28. | :24:31. | |
you think we should know about, then please get in touch with us. | :24:32. | :24:39. | |
It is interesting to find out that more people died from making mustard | :24:40. | :24:50. | |
gas than actually died from its use in the war. | :24:51. | :24:55. | |
Rain this morning and then sunshine for some this afternoon. What does | :24:56. | :24:57. | |
tomorrow hold, Ian? Do you remember what you were doing | :24:58. | :25:08. | |
in 1987 quest Mac I was not born. I was fast asleep and stop you were | :25:09. | :25:13. | |
one of the few people in the country that was. Michael Fish was making a | :25:14. | :25:19. | |
name for himself. It was the great storm. The West Country was that the | :25:20. | :25:28. | |
worst hit area. The storm went above as. The storm in 1990 was far worse | :25:29. | :25:40. | |
for this district. Tomorrow, nothing as bad as that. Many areas will be | :25:41. | :25:48. | |
dry and sunny and warm for this time of year. You will notice this | :25:49. | :25:57. | |
cluster of showers feeding and along the M4 corridor. So tomorrow, many | :25:58. | :26:07. | |
areas will be dry and a pleasant day. The rest of this evening, any | :26:08. | :26:16. | |
showers will be out to the West Showers coming along from the HSE. | :26:17. | :26:22. | |
Some heavy downpours will continue into the first part of the rush | :26:23. | :26:32. | |
hour. Tomorrow morning, downpours easing their way eastwards. As we | :26:33. | :26:42. | |
get through into the late morning and into the afternoon, fewer | :26:43. | :26:45. | |
showers around. It will be a pleasant day. The wind will ease | :26:46. | :26:50. | |
their way. It will feel quite one for this time of year. Some editors | :26:51. | :26:57. | |
probably as high as 17 or 18 Celsius. On Friday, a lot of | :26:58. | :27:05. | |
uncertainty. At the moment it looks like the heaviest rain will push | :27:06. | :27:09. | |
through Devon. We should hopefully miss that. We will not see much | :27:10. | :27:19. | |
brightness on Friday. We get into a showery regime for the weekend. The | :27:20. | :27:23. | |
showers should be less heavy on Saturday. Sunshine on Sunday but the | :27:24. | :27:31. | |
showers will be heavier. That is about it from as far now. Jamie for | :27:32. | :27:39. | |
the lunchtime news tomorrow. See you tomorrow. | :27:40. | :28:12. | |
You ask us to get behind you and why should we? | :28:13. | :28:15. | |
You're punching above your weight, aren't you? | :28:16. | :28:17. | |
He wouldn't do that to me because he wasn't that sort of a man. | :28:18. | :28:24. |
