Which has its own social media following. The idea is that you

register, shake your face at cancer. You then she wrote on social media,

Facebook and Twitter. Then you nominate others to do the same

thing. You keep the campaign driving by getting others involved.

6000 people registered as a donor. Only one in 1000 end up as a match,

:01:57.:02:03.

the hope is that just one of these supporters make provide this

:02:06.:02:14.

One of the BBC's longest serving radio presenters claims that he has

:02:15.:02:17.

been forced out after accidentally broadcasting a song containing a

:02:18.:02:26.

racially offensive word. He was a regular voice, the corporation says

:02:27.:02:29.

that it could have handled the situation better.

:02:30.:02:35.

A regular on regional radio, David says that he has played the song

:02:36.:02:43.

several times. The 1932 recording contains a racially offensive word.

:02:44.:02:48.

One that in 32 years of broadcasting David says he has never noticed. The

:02:49.:02:53.

song was played by him in a broadcast on the 27th of April.

:02:54.:02:57.

After words someone complained. David listened back. To my horror I

:02:58.:03:03.

discovered that it did indeed include that word and I immediately

:03:04.:03:08.

apologised to the BBC management and offered to apologise or near at the

:03:09.:03:18.

next opportunity. `` on your. The expression I used was, fall on my

:03:19.:03:23.

sword. This was accepted by managers at BBC Devon Devon. Subsequently,

:03:24.:03:29.

the BBC has offered him his job back. They said that it could have

:03:30.:03:33.

been handled better and the poor would remain open. David, who is

:03:34.:03:48.

partially disabled, says he has declined the offer to work because

:03:49.:03:51.

his health has deteriorated since the incident. A record number of

:03:52.:03:59.

runners have taken part in the Bristol ten K road race. They

:04:00.:04:04.

believed the showers to tackle the course and raise money for charity.

:04:05.:04:09.

Organisers had to apologise after they ran out of medals and

:04:10.:04:14.

commemorative T`shirts at the end. Almost 400 runners will have to

:04:15.:04:26.

wait. We under bought by 370 in terms of T`shirts. We will contact

:04:27.:04:31.

our suppliers, get more made and post them out to them. We know who

:04:32.:04:37.

everybody is so no`one will actually lose out in the end. It is

:04:38.:04:41.

unfortunate we did not get them on the day. A Wiltshire `based rider

:04:42.:04:48.

has taken third place at this year's Badminton horse trials. The

:04:49.:04:53.

30`year`old shattered both elbows in a riding accident last year. He rose

:04:54.:05:04.

to third after today's show`jumping. Now let's get the weather update.

:05:05.:05:10.

Hello. Today has been bringing blustery showers and this evening

:05:11.:05:15.

brings more of the same. They can be quite sharp in places but will tend

:05:16.:05:21.

to ease off through the night. The breeze should stop things getting

:05:22.:05:25.

too cold, a law between seven and nine degrees. Travellers from the

:05:26.:05:31.

start tomorrow. They could be shark with the odd rumble of thunder. A

:05:32.:05:37.

breezy picture but less so than today. On Tuesday we have got the

:05:38.:05:45.

continued risk of showers but fewer on the way done tomorrow.

:05:46.:05:50.

Thereafter, as the week progresses, it turns drier, brighter and warmer.

:05:51.:05:57.

Our late update is in the Ten O'Clock News. Until then, enjoy

:05:58.:06:00.

Sunday evening. Goodbye. Good evening. We have still got some

:06:01.:06:11.

very heavy showers out there. For ors we are finishing the day on a

:06:12.:06:14.

more positive note. Clearer skies to the south indicating sunshine but

:06:15.:06:18.

the cloud still streaming in further north. Tomorrow's forecast brings a

:06:19.:06:23.

similar mixture, sunshine and showers although the winds will

:06:24.:06:26.

start to be lighter. That process begins through the night tonight. A

:06:27.:06:29.

shattering of showers still possible. Clearer skies across

:06:30.:06:33.

northern Scotland probably our lowest temperatures here. For many

:06:34.:06:36.

temperatures will begin Monday morning at around 8 or 9 degrees

:06:37.:06:42.

already with a few showers around. I think be drier spells in between, as

:06:43.:06:46.

with the nature of showers, they are not everywhere all of the time.

:06:47.:06:50.

Cloudy with brighter spells mixed in across parts of northern England and

:06:51.:06:54.

southern Scotland already with the potential of one or two to be heavy.

:06:55.:06:58.

On northern Scotland on balance through the day on Monday while

:06:59.:07:01.

there could be a few showers, a slight improvement here. But they

:07:02.:07:04.

will start to develop throughout the afternoon and with lighter winds we

:07:05.:07:08.

are more likely to see

:07:09.:07:09.
