:00:00. > :00:00.Louise, thank you. That's all from the BBC News at

:00:07. > :00:13.Don't you dare take pictures of me. The moment a murderer confronted his

:00:14. > :00:17.innocent victim. Tonight, we look at the tragic case of the man killed

:00:18. > :00:22.for being different. Bijan Ebrahimi was murdered after being branded a

:00:23. > :00:34.paedophile by a mob in south Bristol. He was completely innocent.

:00:35. > :00:37.To date, his neighbours were sent to jail for telling him and then

:00:38. > :00:44.setting him on fire. He was targeted for being disabled and foreign. We

:00:45. > :00:50.were let down by the police and other agencies. We would like to

:00:51. > :00:55.know why. I will be putting that question to Bristol's most senior

:00:56. > :01:01.policeman, who said that Mr Ebrahimi was failed by the system.

:01:02. > :01:09.In other news, the former coroner jailed for stealing almost ?2

:01:10. > :01:10.million from his clients. And Sean O'Driscoll is sacked as Bristol

:01:11. > :01:24.City's manager. Good evening. A disabled immigrant

:01:25. > :01:28.was murdered on his own doorstep and set on fire in a vigilante crime

:01:29. > :01:31.after he was wrongly branded a paedophile. Bijan Ebrahimi lived

:01:32. > :01:36.alone and was seen as "different", his family said. Today, one of his

:01:37. > :01:39.neighbours, Lee James, was jailed for life for murder and another

:01:40. > :01:43.Stephen Norley, was given four years for helping. This afternoon, Mr

:01:44. > :01:51.Ebrahimi's sister paid tribute to her brother.

:01:52. > :01:57.We now know who was responsible for murdering and burning Bijan, a

:01:58. > :02:03.wonderful son, brother and uncle has been lost in this world. The next

:02:04. > :02:09.question to be answered is whether Bijan's death could have been

:02:10. > :02:13.avoided if he had had the protection he deserved from the authorities.

:02:14. > :02:18.Lessons must be learned before more of an honourable lives have been

:02:19. > :02:21.lost. `` more vulnerable lives. Tonight, we'll be examining exactly

:02:22. > :02:24.what happened to Bijan Ebrahimi and asking, "What went wrong?" But first

:02:25. > :02:28.our home affairs correspondent, Steve Brodie, looks back at the hot

:02:29. > :02:30.weekend this summer that ended in a mob baying for blood and a vigilante

:02:31. > :02:34.murder. In the early hours of a Sunday

:02:35. > :02:38.morning in July, Bijan Ebrahimi was kicked and stamped to death. At the

:02:39. > :02:41.edge of these security camera pictures, his killer, Lee James and

:02:42. > :02:45.another man, Stephen Norley, can be seen dragging the body into the

:02:46. > :02:50.open. Moments later, it's set on fire. Both men were neighbours of

:02:51. > :03:05.Bijan Ebrahimi, who had lived on the estate since 2007. Andrew Langdon QC

:03:06. > :03:08.said he felt under siege from hostile neighbours. And on the

:03:09. > :03:11.Thursday before his death, he had filmed James drinking in front of

:03:12. > :03:13.his children, which infuriated the 24`year`old father, who accused

:03:14. > :03:17.Bijan Ebrahimi of being a peadophile and then confronted him in his flat.

:03:18. > :03:26.Don't you dare take pictures of me, all right? Don't take because of me!

:03:27. > :03:33.Get the old Bill and I will tell them you took pictures of me. I have

:03:34. > :03:43.a little boy. Go out of my house. Out of my house! Tape it is me again

:03:44. > :03:48.and I'll...! `` take pictures of me again. As the situation deteriated,

:03:49. > :03:51.more rumours circulated and a crowd gathered outside his flat. Bijan

:03:52. > :03:55.Ebrahimi called the police ` they arrested him for his own safety

:03:56. > :03:59.James was heard to say he was going to take the law into his own hands

:04:00. > :04:02.and burn the house down. On the Friday, Bijan was released without

:04:03. > :04:06.charge. The police offered to take him to his sisters'. He wanted to

:04:07. > :04:10.return home to his flat but, as he looked out of his window, tensions

:04:11. > :04:13.remained high and he contacted the police again and again. His calls

:04:14. > :04:17.were not returned. We spoke to one neighbour who wanted to remain

:04:18. > :04:20.annoymous. The police let him down by not

:04:21. > :04:25.realising the situation they were releasing him back into. It was

:04:26. > :04:29.hostile. It was wrought and rabid. Two days later, in the early hours

:04:30. > :04:32.of the morning, Mr Ebrahimi was beaten to death. His body was

:04:33. > :04:41.dragged here, 100 yards from his flat behind me, and then set on

:04:42. > :04:47.fire. I saw the ambulance putting out a fire. I wondered why they were

:04:48. > :04:51.telling me to get back inside and then I saw the dead body. Charges

:04:52. > :04:57.and guilty pleas followed. But it isn't over for Bijan Ebrahimi's

:04:58. > :05:00.family. Avon and Somerset Police referred the case to the Independent

:05:01. > :05:03.Police Complaints Commission, who are investigating six officers about

:05:04. > :05:07.their role. The family want to know what hapened and why. The force may

:05:08. > :05:10.also end up in court. Today, Stephen Norely was jailed for four years for

:05:11. > :05:14.assisting an offender. He had supplied the white spirit used to

:05:15. > :05:17.burn the body. Jailing Lee James for life with a minimum tariff of 1

:05:18. > :05:20.years, the Judge, Mr Justice Simon, told him, "This was an act of

:05:21. > :05:25.murderous injustice. The destruction of the body was gratuitously

:05:26. > :05:28.abusive." He then turned to the family, who were sitting in the

:05:29. > :05:29.front row. He offered his condolences, saying, "For you, this

:05:30. > :05:39.will never be over." Bijan Ebrahimi, was described by his

:05:40. > :05:44.family as a loving brother, son and uncle. Known to friends as Ben, he

:05:45. > :05:48.was a man who loved cats and gardening. Today, his family in

:05:49. > :05:56.Tehran spoke out in anger at the authorities here in Bristol.

:05:57. > :06:05.TRANSLATION: Our hatred for the police is more than that for the

:06:06. > :06:12.murderers. We request the British and Iranian officials and the police

:06:13. > :06:15.to investigate that further. Back in the UK, Bijan Ebrahimi's sister said

:06:16. > :06:19.his murder had left a hole that could never be filled. Jon Kay has

:06:20. > :06:23.been to speak with her. He was such a clever guy. He was

:06:24. > :06:33.very funny. He was kind, he was a good uncle. He was hard`working He

:06:34. > :06:44.made our lives so fun. We cared about him so much.

:06:45. > :06:55.And he was very proud of his garden and the outside of his home? He was

:06:56. > :06:57.really proud of it and every birthday and Christmas, he would ask

:06:58. > :07:01.for plants and flowers will stop if you asked what he wanted, he would

:07:02. > :07:08.ask for plants and flowers. How did he end up living in Bristol? He came

:07:09. > :07:18.to England as a refugee. He wanted to find a better life here because

:07:19. > :07:27.he was not happy. He came in around 2001. There was no doubt that he was

:07:28. > :07:39.going to come to a safe place. I don't think he ever thought about

:07:40. > :07:45.something happening to him here As everyone thinks, coming over here,

:07:46. > :07:50.they will have safety but, unfortunately, it was not the case

:07:51. > :07:59.for Bijan. Losing someone is difficult to come to terms with

:08:00. > :08:07.Losing someone in such a way, it is unimaginable for us to come to terms

:08:08. > :08:12.with that. He wasn't just a brother to us, he was like a son to us, he

:08:13. > :08:24.was the uncle to our children. He was our friend. Not seeing him in

:08:25. > :08:39.our lives... We really miss him We go to his grave as many times as we

:08:40. > :08:50.can, to cry and to feel he is there. You feel failed as a family? We are

:08:51. > :09:00.failed by the system, yes. We feel so strongly about it, we are so

:09:01. > :09:07.disappointed. We felt so let down by the police and the other agencies.

:09:08. > :09:10.We would like to know why. So what about the community where

:09:11. > :09:13.this happened? Capgrave Crescent is a self`contained estate in

:09:14. > :09:17.Brislington, South Bristol. Bijan Ebrahimi moved there in 2007 and

:09:18. > :09:20.lived alone up until his death, It's no different from thousands of other

:09:21. > :09:32.estates across Britain, so why did this happen there? Scott Ellis is

:09:33. > :09:34.there for us now. I have been speaking to some of the

:09:35. > :09:39.residents here this evening. An 11`year`old girl told me she could

:09:40. > :09:44.remember the blood on the grass behind me. She is still so afraid

:09:45. > :09:47.that she sleeps with her mother at night. Another man said that he is

:09:48. > :09:57.still in a state of disbelief and shock about what has happened. When

:09:58. > :10:06.I asked him to say`so on Capper `` say`so on camera, he refused. He was

:10:07. > :10:10.worried about what would happen They must surely be hearing a sense

:10:11. > :10:17.of shame and guilt this evening I have been looking back into the life

:10:18. > :10:21.of Bijan Ebrahimi. You cannot believe it. You don't think of it

:10:22. > :10:29.happening on your doorstep. He was just a normal, quiet chap. There is

:10:30. > :10:36.more to it than just two people taking the law into their own is ``

:10:37. > :10:38.their own hands, there are places where people are treated with

:10:39. > :10:41.suspicion. Residents say little about what

:10:42. > :10:43.happened here. The authrorities are equally guarded. Their roles in

:10:44. > :10:46.protecting Bijan Ebrahimi are being scrutinised. He'd sought help from

:10:47. > :10:50.Bristol's anti`racism agency, SARI, who say he'd make more than 50 calls

:10:51. > :11:01.to the police in the five years before he was killed. the victims

:11:02. > :11:07.are bound to be a nuisance. When you have someone like Bijan, who is

:11:08. > :11:15.subject to racism and harassment, and to get on reporting it to the

:11:16. > :11:23.police, sometimes it comes up, he is again. " `` here he is again

:11:24. > :11:26.SARI's records show Mr Ebrahimi suffered attacks in 2005, when he

:11:27. > :11:36.lived in a shared house overlooking Victoria Park in the south of

:11:37. > :11:38.Bristol. They say that he was attacked on several occasions by the

:11:39. > :11:43.same two men. Not the ones who are sentenced today. On another

:11:44. > :11:46.occasion, he was beaten with a fire extinction. SARI says Bijan had

:11:47. > :11:50.further problems living in the Knowle area and had a flat set on

:11:51. > :11:53.fire. Bijan's family say he was victimised on grounds of race and

:11:54. > :11:55.disability. This disability rights campaigner has studied the links

:11:56. > :12:05.between being disabled, being falsely accused of sexual crimes and

:12:06. > :12:09.then murder. We had several other cases not that far from Bristol in

:12:10. > :12:14.fact. There were three in a radius of 150 miles where men had been

:12:15. > :12:18.wrongly labelled in that way and then subjected to overwhelming

:12:19. > :12:21.violence and murder is. You would have thought that the police would

:12:22. > :12:24.have been dimly aware of those cases. The Equality Commission

:12:25. > :12:27.issued guidance to councils and the police in 2011, warning they

:12:28. > :12:29.recognise the high level of risk faced by disabled people who have

:12:30. > :12:45.been labelled as paedophiles. SARI says, victimised and depressed,

:12:46. > :12:51.Bijan wanted to move out of this two`bedroom flat. But he was only

:12:52. > :13:00.offered a one`bedroom replacment, so stayed put.

:13:01. > :13:02.The city council and the police will report their findings next year

:13:03. > :13:09.That will add to what we have already heard from the agency,

:13:10. > :13:13.That will add to what we have And they will make sure this never

:13:14. > :13:16.happens again. Well, I'm joined now by the Chief

:13:17. > :13:20.Constable of Avon and Somerset Police, Nick Gargan. Thank you for

:13:21. > :13:26.coming in. Presumably you now except that he was let down by the force. I

:13:27. > :13:33.accept that Mr Ebrahimi was let down by the collective community, the

:13:34. > :13:39.agencies that serve them. I have to be careful about what I say. On the

:13:40. > :13:44.14th of July this year, I referred the case to the independent police

:13:45. > :13:50.complaint commission because I was alarmed at what I saw. Once you

:13:51. > :13:56.refer a case to the IPCC, there are research is and what you can say.

:13:57. > :14:02.That is for two reasons. You should not try to influence them whining

:14:03. > :14:05.spy saying what you think publicly. There is a possibility this case

:14:06. > :14:09.could end up in court. If they are going to hear big details of this

:14:10. > :14:17.case, they should in the verdict based on the facts. Looking at what

:14:18. > :14:21.has happened in your force, if you're officers had behaved

:14:22. > :14:28.differently, would he be alive today? No one is more frustrated

:14:29. > :14:32.than I am about the fact that I am rejected in what I can say. Clearly,

:14:33. > :14:36.there is a man who has died and that is a failure and we should learn the

:14:37. > :14:41.lessons and reduce the risk of this happening again. For the reasons I

:14:42. > :14:49.have given, I cannot criticise the force because of the IPCC

:14:50. > :14:52.investigation. I think he was picked out and picked on because he was

:14:53. > :14:58.different. He came from another country, he looked different, he had

:14:59. > :15:02.a disability, his hobbies were different and Easter that on the

:15:03. > :15:05.estate and he behaved differently from other people. That is not to

:15:06. > :15:10.say that any of those things are next use for what happened. It was

:15:11. > :15:13.disgraceful. He made more than 0 complaints to the police. Did your

:15:14. > :15:20.staff come to think of him as being a bit of a pain? We are now moving

:15:21. > :15:25.back into the territory that is being investigated by the IPCC. They

:15:26. > :15:27.will produce a report in two parts, the first will be about the

:15:28. > :15:32.incidents surrounding the week of his death and there will be the

:15:33. > :15:40.longer term triggered off him. I cannot offer a view. Say there was a

:15:41. > :15:43.mob outside a house and someone was arrested for their own protection,

:15:44. > :15:51.would it be wise to deliver them back to that house? We will deliver

:15:52. > :15:57.them back to where they ask us to deliver them. Let us move more than

:15:58. > :16:01.the specific case as the IPCC complete their investigation and let

:16:02. > :16:04.us look at the generality of how we respond to cases of anti`social

:16:05. > :16:08.behaviour, how we respond to vulnerable victims and how we

:16:09. > :16:11.respond to people who come repeatedly to us to ask for our

:16:12. > :16:14.help. Ever since July, we have been working through our procedures to

:16:15. > :16:18.ensure that the chances of any mistakes in the future are juiced

:16:19. > :16:22.and the service we provide to everybody is at the same level as

:16:23. > :16:27.the service we provide you at our best. Thank you.

:16:28. > :16:30.What happened to Bijan Ebrahimi shocked not only the local community

:16:31. > :16:34.but made headlines across the UK. Not for the first time, Bristol

:16:35. > :16:37.found itself at the centre of questions about how something like

:16:38. > :16:41.this could happen. So what, if anything, does this tell us about

:16:42. > :16:45.our city and how tolerant it is Here's Laura Jones.

:16:46. > :16:49.The streets of Southmead, Bristol, in 2009 and two undercover reporters

:16:50. > :16:59.for the BBC's Panorama programme are spat at, punched and verbally

:17:00. > :17:08.abused. The programme had set out to ask how racist this city is. I have

:17:09. > :17:12.not faced as much racism in my entire life as I have here in

:17:13. > :17:16.Bristol. The conclusion was shameful and led to much soul`searching. Four

:17:17. > :17:19.years on, many hoped that things had changed. But, this summer, Mr

:17:20. > :17:23.Ebrahimi's murder put Bristol back in the national headlines for all

:17:24. > :17:27.the wrong reasons. So what, if anything, do the tragic events

:17:28. > :17:31.surrounding this case tell us about this city and our perceptions of it?

:17:32. > :17:37.Bijan Ebrahimi's brutal murder was, thankfully, highly unusual. But his

:17:38. > :17:39.treatment in the years leading up to his death, and the horrific

:17:40. > :17:42.circumstances surrounding it, are clearly shameful and beg the

:17:43. > :17:46.question whether this city so many of us call home really is as

:17:47. > :17:52.inclusive and as welcoming as we'd like to think. It's certainly a

:17:53. > :17:57.diverse city and somewhere that prides itself on being a bit

:17:58. > :18:01.alternative. From the bustling streets of Stokes Croft and Easton

:18:02. > :18:05.to the genteel terraces of Clifton. A city where more than 90 languages

:18:06. > :18:09.are spoken by people of all different faiths, creeds and

:18:10. > :18:17.colours. A city where something like this ought to have been unthinkable.

:18:18. > :18:23.Of course there is some ignorance and there is some racism and that is

:18:24. > :18:29.unacceptable but it is at a lower level than in other cities. I know

:18:30. > :18:34.that. No racist candidate has been successful in Bristol and I hope

:18:35. > :18:37.they never will be. So I absolutely believe that Bristol will repair

:18:38. > :18:40.itself. The statistics certainly don't show anything unusual. Like

:18:41. > :18:43.elsewhere across the country, violent crime is dropping. In 2 02,

:18:44. > :18:48.nine people were murdered in Bristol. Ten years on, that figure

:18:49. > :18:53.has dropped to three. That's about the same as in other cities of a

:18:54. > :18:57.similar size. So if there are lessons to be learned about

:18:58. > :19:01.ourselves and our city as a result of this horrible crime, what are

:19:02. > :19:04.they? Just down the road from where Mr Ebrahimi died, students at the

:19:05. > :19:08.local sixth form college are studying the case as part of their

:19:09. > :19:21.lessons in tolerance and diversity. I think that work in schools around

:19:22. > :19:23.diversity and mixing with different communities. The more community

:19:24. > :19:29.involvement there is, the less likely we are to get caught up in

:19:30. > :19:32.those situations. There are still many questions about what happened

:19:33. > :19:36.here this summer. It's hoped that some of those will be answered when

:19:37. > :19:39.the findings of the independent reports, both into the police and

:19:40. > :19:44.the council's interactions with Mr Ebrahimi, are published early next

:19:45. > :19:47.year. Well, earlier I spoke to Stephen

:19:48. > :19:52.Williams, a Bristol MP who also has ministerial responsibility for

:19:53. > :19:56.integration and race equality. I began by asking him if this was an

:19:57. > :20:03.isolated case or whether there was a deeper issue.

:20:04. > :20:09.I don't think there is some ink fundamentally wrong about Bristol at

:20:10. > :20:12.all. The data I see is that Bristol is relatively harmonious compare to

:20:13. > :20:17.other cities. There is no particular cause for concern, that community

:20:18. > :20:19.tensions are about to erupt. Hopefully this was an isolated on

:20:20. > :20:24.the unique incident where one man tragically lost his life because of

:20:25. > :20:29.the stupid and criminal behaviour of a couple of his neighbours. Bristol

:20:30. > :20:33.certainly does not look like a harmonious place compare to the rest

:20:34. > :20:39.of the country. We have the panorama documentary, we have this. What can

:20:40. > :20:45.we do to address this problem is you mock who's responsible it `` walk we

:20:46. > :20:52.do to address the problem? Who's responsible at E is it? We need to

:20:53. > :20:59.make sure we bring people together. A challenge that I made recently at

:21:00. > :21:04.a Diwali event in Bristol is to be more open about your own community,

:21:05. > :21:10.let people share in your beliefs and your practices, to break down these

:21:11. > :21:16.barriers. Don't these events reach people who are already open minded

:21:17. > :21:21.not this is only those who need to integrate with other communities

:21:22. > :21:25.question at? We need to make the whole thing mainstream, and use

:21:26. > :21:32.every platform possible. Sport and music projects bring people

:21:33. > :21:39.together. With that reach a immunity like this where this tragedy has

:21:40. > :21:43.happened? `` community like this. Bristol is not deemed to be as bad

:21:44. > :21:48.as some other part of the country, so we are obviously in a base of

:21:49. > :21:53.local amenity tensions. This was a case where an entirely innocent man

:21:54. > :21:57.had his life ended by someone who thought he could take the law into

:21:58. > :21:59.his own hands. That must be the clear message. No one should take

:22:00. > :22:04.the law into their own hands. The rule of law is what separates us

:22:05. > :22:11.from not being a civilised society. Thank you.

:22:12. > :22:13.You are watching BBC Points West. In other news, the former

:22:14. > :22:16.Gloucestershire coroner, Alan Crickmore, has been jailed for eight

:22:24. > :22:27.Our Gloucestershire reporter, Steve Knibbs, was in court.

:22:28. > :22:32.From his chaotic solicitors office in Cheltenham, Alan Crickmore bled

:22:33. > :22:39.clients dry. He fiddled the books by seriously inflating his costs and

:22:40. > :22:46.borrowing from victims' estates He was preying on Boro will people who

:22:47. > :22:52.put their complete trust in him `` vulnerable people. When he went on

:22:53. > :22:58.holiday, he would bring them back gifts from the holiday. Little did

:22:59. > :23:01.they know that they had paid for his holiday with money he had stolen

:23:02. > :23:04.from them. Over the years, people have put their absolute trust in him

:23:05. > :23:07.and they were appalled when we went to them and said he had been

:23:08. > :23:18.stealing from them. Many didn't believe us. It any became apparent

:23:19. > :23:22.to them when none of `` when some of them had no money left. Former

:23:23. > :23:25.prisoner of war Josef Dziuma left only a modest estate. Alan Crickmore

:23:26. > :23:31.didn't pay all the beneficiaries of the will, leaving ?25,000 in the

:23:32. > :23:37.account. What happened to the money? Alan Crickmore stole it. It would

:23:38. > :23:43.only cost in a view thousands pounds to wind it up but he took almost

:23:44. > :23:47.half the value of the estate, leaving only ?25,000. Others lost

:23:48. > :23:51.much more. Clare Wilson had dementia and gave Alan Crickmore complete

:23:55. > :24:04.was alive and ?159,000 after she died. Ken Goodwin died in 1997.

:24:05. > :24:13.?894,000 was stolen from the estate. In total, he took nearly ?2 million

:24:14. > :24:17.from his clients. He has had a great big impact on us financially. There

:24:18. > :24:22.are no bones about that. Very disturbing. Especially for my

:24:23. > :24:28.mother, Arie upsetting for her. Also myself. It is horrendous, everything

:24:29. > :24:32.that has taken place over the last 2.5 years. Crickmore used the money

:24:33. > :24:36.to fund a luxury lifestyle ` expensive holidays, fine wine and

:24:37. > :24:48.food. On a ?5,500 QE2 cruise, he spent ?4,800 on board. That was all

:24:49. > :24:51.fans to his clients. 's that was all thanks to his client. Alan Crickmore

:24:52. > :24:54.spent the last few weeks wearing an electronic tag and tonight is in a

:24:55. > :25:00.prison cell. He wishes to sincerely apologise to his clients and the

:25:01. > :25:04.families of his clients who have been affected by this case. He is

:25:05. > :25:09.ashamed of his conduct and bitterly regret his actions. This is a

:25:10. > :25:14.spectacular fall from grace. As a coroner, he cared what happened to

:25:15. > :25:25.the dead but as a solicitor, he was happy to religious states to live a

:25:26. > :25:29.life he could never afford. `` happy to pillage estates.

:25:30. > :25:33.Bristol City have this morning parted company with head coach Sean

:25:34. > :25:36.O'Driscoll. His 11 months at the club has seen the team move from the

:25:37. > :25:38.bottom of the Championship to the League One relegation zone. Damian

:25:39. > :25:41.Derrick reports. Sean O'Driscoll arrived at Ashton

:25:42. > :25:45.Gate in January, hoping to reverse the team's fortunes. But just five

:25:46. > :25:48.wins in 20 matches saw them drop into League One. With one of the

:25:49. > :25:52.biggest budgets in the division City were tipped for promotion. But

:25:53. > :25:56.they're at the wrong end of the table and it's O'Driscoll who's

:25:57. > :26:02.being held responsible. The head coach is in charge of the first 11

:26:03. > :26:05.and getting the best result. The table does not lie, we are the third

:26:06. > :26:09.worst team in the league. Following relegation, there was an overhaul of

:26:10. > :26:12.the playing squad with a focus on developing young talent. O'Driscoll

:26:13. > :26:23.asked for patience from the fans but the League wins just wouldn't come

:26:24. > :26:29.and the pressure took its toll. That's a stupid question. Do not ask

:26:30. > :26:34.me stupid questions. In your career... Now the board has lost its

:26:35. > :26:43.patience and Bristol City are looking for their sixth manager in

:26:44. > :26:46.less than four years. I am available. Let us go to the

:26:47. > :26:47.weather with Ian, who is on the roof.

:26:48. > :26:53.weather with Ian, who is on the Indeed I am and we will see a change

:26:54. > :26:56.as we head into tomorrow. This photograph will be more

:26:57. > :27:00.representative of the skies across the West Country tomorrow. You can

:27:01. > :27:07.take from that that it will be a brighter story per square mile. It

:27:08. > :27:10.will be a breezy day but there will be a lot of dry weather barring one

:27:11. > :27:19.or two showers. We should not have much consequence. This cold front

:27:20. > :27:23.will come in tomorrow, becoming weaker as it comes across is. There

:27:24. > :27:29.will be plenty of cloud around. You will notice that is a signal for a

:27:30. > :27:34.breezy story from the north`west. As we head to the rest of the night,

:27:35. > :27:37.you will see that temperatures dropping to similar values for all

:27:38. > :27:44.of us, around six Celsius was not that will be typical. Frost and fog

:27:45. > :27:47.free by tomorrow morning. We will seize on brighter weather about

:27:48. > :27:53.tomorrow. By the first hours of daylight. As you get towards midday,

:27:54. > :27:57.with the breeze, you will see one or two showers around. They will be in

:27:58. > :28:02.consequence in an otherwise dry story. It will brighten up again

:28:03. > :28:05.towards the afternoon. You will see from the wind speed there that it

:28:06. > :28:12.will be a breezy picture compare to the last few days. Gusts of around

:28:13. > :28:15.25 or 30 mph. A bit of wind chill, particularly in the afternoon.

:28:16. > :28:20.Nonetheless, eight or nine, so it should not be too bad. It should be

:28:21. > :28:24.a decent day on Saturday with some sunshine but we're back to square

:28:25. > :28:28.one with a cloudy picture at the start of next week.

:28:29. > :28:36.Thank you. It does feel a little bit milder. That is it from us for now.

:28:37. > :28:37.Join me for lunch tomorrow. Otherwise we will see you at the

:28:38. > :28:43.same time tomorrow. Goodbye.
