:06:23. > :06:24.has been defaced. Only this week,

:06:25. > :06:26.campaigners announced they had But now Spy Booth been spraxed

:06:27. > :06:39.over with silver paint. Cheltenham's Banksy, eavesdropping

:06:40. > :06:45.on this telephone box, thesd undercover spies are now covered up

:06:46. > :06:48.after an overnight attack. Ht is not funny or clever and I do not see why

:06:49. > :06:52.people have to do this sort of thing. People here have been proud

:06:53. > :06:57.of their Banksy and were angry this morning as news of the graffiti got

:06:58. > :07:01.around. I am gutted. I do not understand why people need to do

:07:02. > :07:09.this any more. This is what it looked like in April. A few weeks

:07:10. > :07:12.after it was painted there was talk of selling it to a collector but a

:07:13. > :07:14.local businessman pledged htndreds of thousands of pounds to s`ve it.

:07:15. > :07:19.If this graffiti cannot be removed, I you still going to buy it? That is

:07:20. > :07:23.a very good question. It will be removed, in some format it will be

:07:24. > :07:28.removed. It is something th`t the people in this town love and we have

:07:29. > :07:32.to get it restored. This is what people are hoping will save it. It

:07:33. > :07:36.is anti`graffiti paint and that is a piece that was peeled off e`rlier.

:07:37. > :07:41.If they are quick enough and they use the right chemicals thex might

:07:42. > :07:45.be able to take off the top layer of new graffiti and leave the Banksy

:07:46. > :07:49.intact. These pictures have been defaced

:07:50. > :07:53.before. This one in Bristol was hit by blue paint balls and othdrs like

:07:54. > :07:59.this one have been quickly removed, preserved but not for the ptblic.

:08:00. > :08:03.Like much of the street art this will eventually be sold. Sole

:08:04. > :08:06.believe it is just a part of the life cycle of Street graffiti but

:08:07. > :08:14.for others they are precious and they should be preserved.

:08:15. > :08:16.A pilot from RNAS Yeovilton has walked away

:08:17. > :08:18.unharmed after the historic aircraft he was flying crashed onto

:08:19. > :08:23.Eyewitnesses at the Culdrosd Airshow said the sea fury appeared to lose

:08:24. > :08:25.The Royal Navy says it's investigating what it says was

:08:26. > :08:33.There's of course more news on the BBC Website.

:08:34. > :08:34.We're back with you throughout the weekend.

:08:35. > :08:42.But for now I'll leave you with Ian and the latest forecast.

:08:43. > :08:50.That aeroplane's engine went pop but not this man's. I doubt he could

:08:51. > :08:56.take a picture that good tolorrow because the showers will be quite

:08:57. > :09:01.heavy. It will be better in the afternoon but it will be brdezy and

:09:02. > :09:04.breezy and dry and sunny on Sunday. Tonight we will have showerx

:09:05. > :09:11.outbreaks of Wayne particul`rly in the Western districts. In the

:09:12. > :09:15.western areas we have the btlk of heavy rain and there will bd a phase

:09:16. > :09:20.in the morning where most of us will have heavy and thundery downpours

:09:21. > :09:24.which were clearer way. There could be a few further showers in the

:09:25. > :09:30.afternoon but they will facd towards the evening. It is an ever hmproving

:09:31. > :09:32.story if turning a bit breezy. A drier day on Sunday

:09:33. > :09:47.Good evening. For some of us turning soggy this weekend. For others

:09:48. > :09:53.increasingly sunny. Don't make this the last forecast you see this

:09:54. > :09:57.weekend T rain could cause some problems. Sunshine will follow the

:09:58. > :10:03.rain from the south. Overnight a lot of rain from south-west England and
