looks a better day this weekend That's all from us. It's goodbye | :00:00. | 3:59:59 | |
from me. And on Welcome to BBC Points West with Alex | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Lovell and David Garmston. Our main story tonight: The care | :00:07. | :00:09. | |
home where standards have slipped time and time again. We reveal the | :00:10. | :00:14. | |
concerns about Holmwood House in Bristol and one daughter's campaign | :00:15. | :00:22. | |
for an apology. Everything that they've done has a consequence and | :00:23. | :00:26. | |
they've never yet said to me, "I'm sorry" . I'm perhaps naive to want | :00:27. | :00:34. | |
an apology but I know I'm not going to get it. We'll have the shocking | :00:35. | :00:40. | |
details and be talking to Age UK about how the elderly can be | :00:41. | :00:42. | |
protected. Our other stories tonight: Now, | :00:43. | :00:50. | |
that's proper West Country beef ` the herds that have been granted a | :00:51. | :00:54. | |
quality benchmark. In at the deep end ` the Floods | :00:55. | :00:57. | |
Minister meets victims of the wash`out on the Somerset Levels | :00:58. | :01:01. | |
And the little boy whose home`made Olympic torch has raised ?30,00 and | :01:02. | :01:03. | |
a thank you from the Queen. Good evening. A Points West | :01:04. | :01:14. | |
investigation can tonight reveal a catalogue of failings at a Bristol | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
nursing home. One family has described the care at Holmwood House | :01:18. | :01:21. | |
in Westbury`on`Trym as disgusting. We've found that last year alone, | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
one woman was dropped from a hoist, that prescribed drinks weren't given | :01:26. | :01:27. | |
and mistakes were made with medicine. But tonight the owner told | :01:28. | :01:33. | |
us his priority is the health and welfare of his 29 residents, and | :01:34. | :01:37. | |
that he always responds quickly to problems and complaints. Martin | :01:38. | :01:43. | |
Jones has been to meet one concerned family. | :01:44. | :01:49. | |
She loved bowling and skittles, playing bingo and dancing. Kathleen | :01:50. | :01:55. | |
Cole in happier times, before she developed dementia and came to | :01:56. | :01:58. | |
Holmwood House for 24/7 nursing care. I'd come out of that home | :01:59. | :02:05. | |
thinking, "I just wish I could pick my mum up and bring her with me . It | :02:06. | :02:11. | |
was awful. Mrs Cole was there for almost five years and her daughter | :02:12. | :02:13. | |
believes there were serious failings in her care. I thought they knew | :02:14. | :02:19. | |
what they were doing. She says the most traumatic event was almost two | :02:20. | :02:23. | |
years ago when nurse Cisily Joseph gave Mrs Cole and enema. She insists | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
she only gave good care and be an was prescribed and necessary. A | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
council investigation says otherwise and called it abuse. I felt like I | :02:33. | :02:39. | |
had violated my mum myself. The home didn't tell me that this had | :02:40. | :02:45. | |
actually gone on. I had to hear it second`hand. Mrs joseph was | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
convicted of assault, later overturned on appeal. The council | :02:49. | :02:53. | |
said the enema wasn't reported, recorded or communicated correctly. | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
Holmwood's owner, Hassan Aja brewery, said it would be | :02:59. | :03:01. | |
inappropriate to comment about specific aspects of care. `` Ghassan | :03:02. | :03:08. | |
Al`Jibouri. And missions were temporarily suspended and restricted | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
for several months. Inspectors did note big improvements but then | :03:14. | :03:19. | |
things deteriorated last year. Mrs Cole was prescribed supplement | :03:20. | :03:21. | |
drinks. Nurses wrote that she had been given them but last May, 8 | :03:22. | :03:25. | |
unused bottles were found in her room. A subsequent report by the | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
regulator was damning. Since then, the home has addressed the worst | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
failure but is still not up to standard for Food Drink. This CQC | :03:36. | :03:41. | |
report confirms again that they failed to meet the criteria that | :03:42. | :03:47. | |
this CQC require. Why are they allowed to keep on failing? We've | :03:48. | :03:54. | |
learned five serious at Homewood including poor handling of | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
residents. The owner says he is transparent and that staff provide | :03:59. | :04:02. | |
good care for each resident but sources have told us it is often | :04:03. | :04:06. | |
short`staffed. That put us under pressure. The effect is that staff | :04:07. | :04:11. | |
were constantly stressed and that affected the morale of the | :04:12. | :04:15. | |
residents. Management said it was an short`staffed but it was. Also | :04:16. | :04:22. | |
employed as a consultant at Holmwood was Isla Meek. She used to manage | :04:23. | :04:25. | |
different Bristol care home but was struck off as a nurse two years ago. | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
She hasn't responded to our enquiries. Mr Al`Jibouri said he | :04:30. | :04:35. | |
valued her experience as a critical outside and she doesn't carry out | :04:36. | :04:42. | |
nursing duties. Anette moved her mother out of Holmwood last July. At | :04:43. | :04:46. | |
that time, the council would not send in any new residents. Mrs Cole | :04:47. | :04:52. | |
died 12 days later. Evil shouldn't be treated like that. They | :04:53. | :04:57. | |
shouldn't. After all, yes, mum was ill but she was still human. She | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
needed to be treated with dignity and respect. Mrs Al`Jibouri said Mrs | :05:03. | :05:08. | |
Cole was safe and well looked after and every matter we had raised was | :05:09. | :05:14. | |
investigated in great detail. He also said other families were happy | :05:15. | :05:18. | |
with their care. But Holmwood House remains under serious scrutiny. | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
Council is in sending anyone there who needs nursing and has sent in a | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
team to make sure it improves long`term. | :05:27. | :05:28. | |
Well, the city council have told us that they've been working with | :05:29. | :05:31. | |
Holmwood's owners for some months now and has written to all the | :05:32. | :05:34. | |
residents there. But they don't have the power to close a home. Joining | :05:35. | :05:43. | |
me now is Mark Baker from Age UK. Welcome to the programme. How many | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
chances should a home have before it is close down? With this particular | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
one it seems to have been going on for a long time and the | :05:54. | :05:56. | |
responsibility is with the care quality queue `` Care Quality | :05:57. | :05:59. | |
Commission, which monitors the homes. They've let this one | :06:00. | :06:05. | |
continue. How can relatives check out each home whether it is going to | :06:06. | :06:12. | |
be good? There are life changing events that have me make people want | :06:13. | :06:15. | |
to look at a care home. It is best to plan in advance because | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
everyone's needs are slightly different but once you settle on a | :06:19. | :06:22. | |
care home, you can go on to the CQC website and it'll tell you if its | :06:23. | :06:25. | |
meeting the standards it requires or not. If people go to the CQC, they | :06:26. | :06:30. | |
will see which standards they are meeting and which they are not. How | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
rare our concerns like these? I think they are odd ones. What | :06:36. | :06:43. | |
appears to be poor care is not the usual. Most perform much better than | :06:44. | :06:47. | |
this but some are better than others. I think this was about 600 | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
a week, which I guess is lower down the scale of costs. Is there a sense | :06:53. | :06:58. | |
that you get what you pay for? Unfortunately, there is. A choice | :06:59. | :07:01. | |
comes with more money. The more money you have, the greater choice | :07:02. | :07:06. | |
you have. The council has a level at which they will not fund any higher. | :07:07. | :07:11. | |
The council will only pay up to a certain level so there is a budget | :07:12. | :07:16. | |
you're looking at. We are talking about salaries. And so on, I guess, | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
but many staff are paid poor money but really go the extra mile. It's | :07:21. | :07:24. | |
not necessarily money that drives it. Money is important. The sort of | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
people who are attracted by these jobs aren't motivated by money but | :07:30. | :07:33. | |
because they love people and want to provide that care but money is | :07:34. | :07:36. | |
important to people. As a society, we don't value care properly and the | :07:37. | :07:41. | |
retention of good staff and recruiting people with passion and | :07:42. | :07:44. | |
empathy is so important. Thank you. A second teenager has been charged | :07:45. | :07:47. | |
with the murder of a man in Weston`super`Mare last October. Mark | :07:48. | :07:50. | |
Roberts died in hospital after being attacked on his way home from a | :07:51. | :07:54. | |
local social club. Shortly after his death, a 17`year`old boy was charged | :07:55. | :07:57. | |
with murder, and yesterday a 15`year`old girl was charged with | :07:58. | :08:03. | |
the same offence. A Bristol man is to face trial | :08:04. | :08:06. | |
accused of having nearly 200 indecent images of children on his | :08:07. | :08:10. | |
computer. 35`year`old Dutch`born Vincent Tabak appeared at Bristol | :08:11. | :08:13. | |
Magistrates' Court where he was charged with the offences. The court | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
was told the photographs included level three and four images. Level | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
five is categorised as the most serious. His case has been | :08:23. | :08:27. | |
transferred to Bristol Crown Court, where he will appear in February. | :08:28. | :08:32. | |
West Country beef and lamb have joined the ranks of Cornish pasties | :08:33. | :08:35. | |
and Stilton cheese by gaining protected status. The stamp of | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
approval means only meat born and bred in the West can use the title. | :08:41. | :08:45. | |
And farmers hope it will give a boost to sales ` and exports abroad. | :08:46. | :08:59. | |
Andrew Plant reports. Life as a butcher has long been a | :09:00. | :09:05. | |
family business here in Somerset. Nowt this locally bred beef can | :09:06. | :09:09. | |
officially be branded as West Country meet. This is a | :09:10. | :09:15. | |
fifth`generation cattle farm here on the edge of Shepton Mallet in | :09:16. | :09:19. | |
Somerset and the meat produced here will qualify for that protected | :09:20. | :09:25. | |
status, the new West Country stamp. The criteria, crucially, are that | :09:26. | :09:29. | |
the cows are born, raised and slaughtered here, too and also that | :09:30. | :09:37. | |
they get 70% of their food from grazing ` which means they do most | :09:38. | :09:42. | |
of their eating outside. It gets that status. Cattle farmer Ed Green | :09:43. | :09:48. | |
fought an eight`year campaign to have the West Country's rich grazing | :09:49. | :09:55. | |
recognised as unique. Because of the rainfall and sunshine we get here, | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
we get more than 300 days of a growing season to grow fantastic | :10:00. | :10:04. | |
grassy, which produces a higher ratio of saturated fatty acids. | :10:05. | :10:08. | |
That's what makes the meat so special. West Country beef and West | :10:09. | :10:12. | |
Country lamb join a small club of UK products. Numbers include the Melton | :10:13. | :10:16. | |
Mowbray porkpie and the Cornish pasty. Both have protected | :10:17. | :10:23. | |
geographical status. Gloucestershire's Old Spot pigs are | :10:24. | :10:28. | |
recognised, along with Stilton cheese and Scottish salmon. This is | :10:29. | :10:34. | |
where the carcasses come in and there is the beef. For butcher | :10:35. | :10:41. | |
Malcolm Pyne, it means customers can see local meat as distinct from the | :10:42. | :10:48. | |
competition. It should be recognised and is now being recognised. We | :10:49. | :10:56. | |
don't have to go 1 million miles to get it. It is on the doorstep. Let's | :10:57. | :11:02. | |
use it, let's look after it. So alongside Gloucestershire side of, | :11:03. | :11:08. | |
West Country beef and local lamb chops now sit. And for local farmers | :11:09. | :11:13. | |
that qualify for the title, a slightly more prestigious place on | :11:14. | :11:17. | |
the shop shelves. Staying with farming, there's been | :11:18. | :11:19. | |
further embarrassment for the Government in its attempts to tackle | :11:20. | :11:25. | |
tuberculosis in cattle. Today it admitted significantly overstating | :11:26. | :11:28. | |
the number of herds with bovine TB over the last two years. An | :11:29. | :11:31. | |
investigation will consider whether it was caused by a computer glitch. | :11:32. | :11:35. | |
The Government says other statistics still show levels of bovine TB | :11:36. | :11:40. | |
remain unacceptably high. Yesterday it emerged that policing the | :11:41. | :11:43. | |
controversial badger cull cost five times more than expected. | :11:44. | :11:49. | |
You're watching your regional news, BBC Points West, tonight with David | :11:50. | :11:54. | |
and Alex. Do stay with us ` there's still plenty more to come, | :11:55. | :11:58. | |
including: The FA Cup dream is over for both Bristol's football teams, | :11:59. | :12:01. | |
as City and Rovers crash out of the competition. | :12:02. | :12:04. | |
And is this the craziest cycle path in the West? We take a ride on a | :12:05. | :12:09. | |
route in Weston`super`Mare that s driving cyclists round the bend | :12:10. | :12:17. | |
The Government's Floods Minister has been in Somerset this afternoon | :12:18. | :12:21. | |
seeing for himself the devastation caused by flooding in the county. | :12:22. | :12:27. | |
Dan Rogerson came face to face with those who have been personally | :12:28. | :12:31. | |
affected ` and he was left in no doubt about their anger. Afterwards, | :12:32. | :12:34. | |
in an exclusive interview with our Somerset correspondent Clinton | :12:35. | :12:37. | |
Rogers, he said he would take their concerns back to Government ` but | :12:38. | :12:49. | |
couldn't promise cash help. Annual meeting. We had this last | :12:50. | :12:54. | |
year. There was a sense of having been here before. Another flood | :12:55. | :12:57. | |
another ministerial visit to Somerset. Among those turning up | :12:58. | :13:02. | |
demanding help, two people from the marooned village of Muchelney, who | :13:03. | :13:05. | |
came in Wellington is to make a point. There must come a time when | :13:06. | :13:11. | |
they think that we have a point and they should do something about it. | :13:12. | :13:15. | |
It was no surprise that among the flood victims, landowners and civic | :13:16. | :13:20. | |
leaders who came, the consensus was that flooding on this scale could | :13:21. | :13:23. | |
have been avoided if the Environment Agency and properly maintained the | :13:24. | :13:30. | |
rivers. The edge to them of silk. `` dredged them of silt. We have a | :13:31. | :13:41. | |
nuclear power station coming. How can you have roads blocked off for | :13:42. | :13:47. | |
weeks, the landmass flooded? We want to encourage the supply chain to | :13:48. | :13:50. | |
come in but if they visit us now, why would they put their money into | :13:51. | :13:55. | |
Sedgemoor? So, was the minister able to promise anything? We want to do | :13:56. | :13:59. | |
something that will really make a difference and have an effect for | :14:00. | :14:04. | |
local communities. Will you come up with the money for dredging? We are | :14:05. | :14:11. | |
putting ?2.3 million into flooding. They just want an answer. Will you | :14:12. | :14:17. | |
pay for dredging? The government will put money into schemes we think | :14:18. | :14:20. | |
will work and help people so together with the money being put | :14:21. | :14:23. | |
together locally, if we can make a contribution we will be keen to do | :14:24. | :14:27. | |
that but I can't commit here, as a new minister, seeing the problem | :14:28. | :14:32. | |
first`hand. This afternoon the county council did promise an extra | :14:33. | :14:37. | |
?0.5 million towards dredging but to clear the rivers properly could cost | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
anything up to ?20 million. So far, nobody is digging deep for that kind | :14:43. | :14:46. | |
of money. A ?90 million project which should | :14:47. | :14:49. | |
reduce traffic congestion around the M4/M5 Almondsbury Interchange was | :14:50. | :14:51. | |
officially opened today by Roads Minister Robert Goodwill. Work to | :14:52. | :14:58. | |
convert the seven`mile stretch into a so`called "smart motorway", with | :14:59. | :15:01. | |
hi`tech signs and cameras, has taken two years. It's hoped that in busy | :15:02. | :15:07. | |
periods it will keep the traffic moving. It will certainly improve | :15:08. | :15:17. | |
capacity by about 25% and we won't get the concertina effect. We've | :15:18. | :15:20. | |
often been driving down the motorway and, for no reason, the traffic has | :15:21. | :15:24. | |
stopped and you wonder if there has been an accident but there was | :15:25. | :15:28. | |
nothing ahead. By smoothing out the flow so that the operators in the | :15:29. | :15:33. | |
control room can detect if there is congestion, they can slow down the | :15:34. | :15:36. | |
traffic behind the congestion, so that when the congestion has cleared | :15:37. | :15:41. | |
you can keep going through. It has been a fantastic success and people | :15:42. | :15:44. | |
around the world are learning from here in the UK. | :15:45. | :15:48. | |
Gloucestershire Council today launched a campaign urging the | :15:49. | :15:51. | |
Government to fund roadworks on a notorious accident black spot. Part | :15:52. | :15:54. | |
of the A417 just outside Gloucester narrows from a dual to a single | :15:55. | :15:57. | |
carriageway, and has been the site of many fatal crashes. The council | :15:58. | :16:04. | |
wants a bypass scheme to be included in the Government's list of future | :16:05. | :16:11. | |
road works. Bristol's public toilets, which had | :16:12. | :16:14. | |
been threatened with closure, will remain open. The Mayor, George | :16:15. | :16:17. | |
Ferguson, says an improved financial outlook means he'll now shelve plans | :16:18. | :16:21. | |
to shut all but one of the city s loos. Cuts to bus subsidies and | :16:22. | :16:24. | |
community transport have also been scrapped. But the council will still | :16:25. | :16:27. | |
shed 800 jobs, and budgets for libraries and children's centres | :16:28. | :16:30. | |
will also be reduced. The Mayor needs councillors to approve his | :16:31. | :16:38. | |
budget at a key meeting next month. It's great to be able to respond to | :16:39. | :16:41. | |
what was such a successful consultation process, where we got | :16:42. | :16:46. | |
thousands of responses instead of the few low hundreds that we've | :16:47. | :16:51. | |
previously had. I'm able to judge much more the public feeling and we | :16:52. | :16:57. | |
will have reinstated 18 out of the top 30 concerns that people had and | :16:58. | :17:02. | |
been able to answer most of the others. | :17:03. | :17:04. | |
With Bristol an official "cycling city", and the network expanding | :17:05. | :17:07. | |
elsewhere in the West, cyclists have never had it so good. Or have they? | :17:08. | :17:12. | |
What can go wrong with a new cycle lane? This is an old favourite in | :17:13. | :17:18. | |
Warrington. And then there was this in London. And what about this | :17:19. | :17:28. | |
little beauty in Middlesbrough? You've got a tree bang in the centre | :17:29. | :17:32. | |
of it! We'd never get it wrong here in the West, would we? Andy Howard's | :17:33. | :17:36. | |
report might have the answer. The approach to the M5 from | :17:37. | :17:41. | |
Weston`super`Mare. ?15 million has been spent here. That has bought | :17:42. | :17:45. | |
some extra lanes, some shiny new traffic lights and, apparently, | :17:46. | :17:50. | |
there is a cycle lane. Now, where is it? Oh, there we go. Even the | :17:51. | :17:58. | |
cyclists who do know where it is don't particularly like it. They say | :17:59. | :18:02. | |
it is too narrow and the camber makes you feel like you are leaning | :18:03. | :18:06. | |
into the road. I measured the tarmac today at 41 inches across, just over | :18:07. | :18:11. | |
one metre. The UK standard is three metres and it does slope. So can the | :18:12. | :18:17. | |
council backpedal? We couldn't change it if we wanted to. I think | :18:18. | :18:23. | |
the cyclists need to bear in mind that the approach to this area has | :18:24. | :18:28. | |
no cycleway at all and, indeed, doesn't even have a pavement. So, | :18:29. | :18:33. | |
you know, I think they need to be grateful for the short length we've | :18:34. | :18:38. | |
managed to put in. Would you cycle on it? I would, yes. I wouldn't have | :18:39. | :18:45. | |
a problem with it. Do you want to come and have a go now? Not today, | :18:46. | :18:51. | |
thank you. So that's a no from him and an even bigger one from the | :18:52. | :18:57. | |
charity which promotes cycling. It is clearly dangerous. I would ask | :18:58. | :19:00. | |
the people who have designed and built this, would they cycle there | :19:01. | :19:04. | |
with their kids? The almost certain answer would be no. This alleged | :19:05. | :19:10. | |
cycle lane is incredibly dangerous. I think it discourages the cyclists | :19:11. | :19:13. | |
and could be incredibly dangerous for people. Putting something like | :19:14. | :19:18. | |
this in is worse than not having it at all. But it is here and it is | :19:19. | :19:24. | |
here to stay so this is the view that cyclists will just have to get | :19:25. | :19:30. | |
used to. If you've got a favourite cycle | :19:31. | :19:35. | |
lane, I'm sure you'll let us know. Dreams of facing Premier League | :19:36. | :19:37. | |
opposition in this season's FA Cup were ended last night for both | :19:38. | :19:40. | |
Bristol football clubs. Rovers lost three goals to nil at Birmingham. | :19:41. | :19:43. | |
Alistair Durden's report starts at Watford, where Bristol City's | :19:44. | :19:46. | |
supporters saw their side beaten 2`0. | :19:47. | :19:53. | |
We were given an object lesson in how to close down and you can see | :19:54. | :19:59. | |
there is two divisions' difference in the teams. The extra class showed | :20:00. | :20:04. | |
in the second half. Against a Watford side with just one | :20:05. | :20:08. | |
win in 14 games, City fancied their chances. Remember, Manchester City | :20:09. | :20:14. | |
the likely prize. Watford took the lead after 25 minutes ` the last | :20:15. | :20:17. | |
touch came off City defender Karleigh Osborne. And they were | :20:18. | :20:20. | |
second best after the break, as Watford took firm control and the | :20:21. | :20:30. | |
place in round four. We've had two games now against a championship | :20:31. | :20:32. | |
outfit that could have been a Premier League easily. We've come | :20:33. | :20:38. | |
and give them a game. A little bit disappointed with the outcome but | :20:39. | :20:40. | |
you'd expect no more. Rovers took over 2,500 fans to Birmingham, where | :20:41. | :20:43. | |
Premier League Swansea were waiting for the winners. Paul Robinson gave | :20:44. | :20:46. | |
the Championship side a first`half lead. | :20:47. | :20:52. | |
League Two Rovers gave a good account of themselves until Chris | :20:53. | :20:55. | |
Burke scored two late goals to give the score a more flattering look. | :20:56. | :21:06. | |
They played all heart. They couldn't find the finishing. It should never | :21:07. | :21:12. | |
have been pre`0. I think they just lost it a little bit towards the | :21:13. | :21:18. | |
end. `` it should never have been 3`0. We weren't good enough to win | :21:19. | :21:29. | |
the game tonight. Seven cup dream is over for both Bristol sides. They | :21:30. | :21:32. | |
both need to concentrate on improving their worrying league | :21:33. | :21:34. | |
positions now. In the League, Swindon missed the | :21:35. | :21:37. | |
chance to gain ground on the League One playoff places. They lost by two | :21:38. | :21:41. | |
goals to nil at bottom club Stevenage. It was their eighth away | :21:42. | :21:47. | |
defeat of the season, leaving them four points outside the playoff | :21:48. | :21:50. | |
zone. Now, the London Olympics may seem a | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
long time ago, but for one schoolboy from Somerset the memory will last | :21:55. | :21:58. | |
forever. Seven`year`old Logan McKerrow made an Olympic torch out | :21:59. | :22:03. | |
of paper. He sold it on eBay, then something extraordinary happened. | :22:04. | :22:10. | |
Yes, the torch sold ` not once, but 60 times, going around the UK just | :22:11. | :22:16. | |
like the real torch relay. In the process, Logan raised more than | :22:17. | :22:19. | |
?30,000 for charity ` and I'm glad to say he joins us in the studio, | :22:20. | :22:23. | |
along with mum Kerry and his sister Tamsin. Welcome to you all. Hiya! | :22:24. | :22:36. | |
Look how proud Logan looks. We should explain why you are so proud | :22:37. | :22:41. | |
holding up this letter. Who owns the torch that you made now? She is very | :22:42. | :22:47. | |
important, she wears a crown. The Queen! And who is this letter from? | :22:48. | :22:56. | |
The Queen. Yeah, just the Queen How come the Queen has it now? Somebody | :22:57. | :23:02. | |
sent it to her. Let me have a look at the letter. How did you make this | :23:03. | :23:09. | |
taught? Was it with bits of paper? Yes. You won't make this into a | :23:10. | :23:14. | |
torch, will you? I don't think the Queen would be very happy. Mum is | :23:15. | :23:25. | |
here, out. How did this start? It was before the 2012 Olympic County | :23:26. | :23:28. | |
did a project at school. Other children made a torch, as well. It | :23:29. | :23:32. | |
wasn't until we did a photo shoot with a real Olympic torch to raise | :23:33. | :23:40. | |
money for the air ambulance that I told him about people selling the | :23:41. | :23:43. | |
real tortures online. 60 different people have bought it on auction and | :23:44. | :23:49. | |
then relisted it and it's gone 21,000 miles and taking you on an | :23:50. | :23:53. | |
incredible journey, as well. Logan, are you all right there? Who have | :23:54. | :23:58. | |
you met? You've met some incredible people. David Walliams, David | :23:59. | :24:11. | |
Beckham. And David Johnston as well now! That's him! `` David Garmston. | :24:12. | :24:22. | |
Tell us about your torch. I wanted to me `` raise money for the hearing | :24:23. | :24:33. | |
dogs so I made a winter torch. That is not available yet so it is very | :24:34. | :24:38. | |
exclusive, isn't it? You are only taking one bidder because you want | :24:39. | :24:41. | |
it back, don't you? Who do you want to give it to? One Direction! I ll | :24:42. | :24:53. | |
give you back the letter. Take very good care because Her Majesty's | :24:54. | :24:58. | |
secretary doesn't send too many out. Take care. | :24:59. | :25:05. | |
Where else but the roof for the second wet evening in a row? When | :25:06. | :25:13. | |
you were out covering flooding issues I don't remember a single | :25:14. | :25:17. | |
spot of rain falling on you! We will get our own back, I promise. You are | :25:18. | :25:23. | |
likely to see a succession of showers and it's going to be quite a | :25:24. | :25:29. | |
lot in terms of wet ` dry prospects. There will be hail and a threat of | :25:30. | :25:34. | |
lightning, so some lively weather. Particularly blustery where you are | :25:35. | :25:37. | |
underneath the showers as they come by. Low pressure is drifting up | :25:38. | :25:43. | |
towards the North of Ireland out towards the north`west of us. We are | :25:44. | :25:50. | |
in the run of showers moving out from the South West but not really a | :25:51. | :25:55. | |
scatter`gun approach. They will be aligning themselves into bands | :25:56. | :25:57. | |
across some districts and not others, and that's why there could | :25:58. | :26:01. | |
be appreciable amounts of rain falling in some areas. Rain falling | :26:02. | :26:08. | |
in areas where we don't want it might be a point of note tomorrow. | :26:09. | :26:14. | |
Rain will continue through the night with temperatures dropping to about | :26:15. | :26:22. | |
three Celsius. Tomorrow morning the showers are with us from good and | :26:23. | :26:25. | |
early and some could be heavy in places. The graphics shouldn't be | :26:26. | :26:29. | |
taken too literally in terms of weather you will see the showers but | :26:30. | :26:35. | |
you get the broad theme of it ` trier phases for some but the | :26:36. | :26:44. | |
opposite for others. `` Crier. There may be a lot of rain in spots, which | :26:45. | :26:51. | |
won't help matters. For the time being we don't have anyone in is out | :26:52. | :26:54. | |
and probably won't until we see things developing on the radar. | :26:55. | :26:59. | |
Temperatures tomorrow should be up in a range of eight or nine Celsius. | :27:00. | :27:05. | |
We can expect further showers in the Friday and perhaps a dryer outlook. | :27:06. | :27:11. | |
It gets tricky into the weekend Some complex developments taking | :27:12. | :27:15. | |
place, which means there is a growing possibility that by the end | :27:16. | :27:20. | |
of Friday, into the first part of Saturday, we see an area of rain | :27:21. | :27:23. | |
pushing up into northern France which could affect southern parts of | :27:24. | :27:29. | |
England. Into Sunday and Monday chilly weather with the threat of | :27:30. | :27:31. | |
freezing fog. You are full of joy, holding that | :27:32. | :27:41. | |
umbrella like my Olympic torch! That is worth ?100 now, current bidding. | :27:42. | :27:45. | |
Tamsin and Logan wanted to say hello Hidden beneath your feet | :27:46. | :28:17. | |

little creatures. Imagine being able to experience | :28:21. | :28:23. | |
this wonderland through their eyes. see the incredible adventures | :28:24. | :28:30. | |
