Good evening. Members of the National Union of Journalists at | :00:16. | :00:22. | |
BBC Wales are taking part in industrial action. The walk-out | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
began at midnight and is the second of two, one-day strikes over | :00:25. | :00:28. | |
potential redundancies. The BBC says it's trying to reduce the need | :00:28. | :00:30. | |
for compulsory redundancies, but that it's likely to be impossible | :00:31. | :00:40. | |
to avoid them. It has apologised for any disruption to programmes. | :00:40. | :00:43. | |
Worshippers fighting to save their church in Rhondda from closure are | :00:43. | :00:46. | |
meeting this evening to decide whether or not to accept an offer | :00:46. | :00:51. | |
to sell it to them. The Church in Wales has offered parishioners at | :00:51. | :00:54. | |
All Saints Church in Maerdy the chance to buy the building for | :00:54. | :00:58. | |
�1,000. Protesters have camped in the building for almost a month to | :00:58. | :01:08. | |
:01:08. | :01:08. | ||
try to get it reopened. Alan Main objective is for the Church to | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
remain here. -- Alan Main objective. We want to support the worshippers | :01:12. | :01:16. | |
see on a Sunday, and every day if they want to worship here. That is | :01:16. | :01:22. | |
what our main objective is. There are lots of legalities surrounding | :01:22. | :01:27. | |
that, so we have to look into that now. Repair work on the Brynglas | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
tunnel is continuing following the fire which severely damaged the | :01:29. | :01:32. | |
tunnel last week. The first westbound closure of the tunnel | :01:32. | :01:35. | |
will start tonight with the carriageway due to be closed from | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
8:00pm, re-opening by 6:00am the following morning. The work is | :01:37. | :01:43. | |
scheduled to last up to a week. A witness in the original | :01:43. | :01:45. | |
investigation into the murder of Cardiff prostitute Lynette White | :01:45. | :01:49. | |
has told a court he changed his story about what he had seen the | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
night she died. Mark Grommek, who lived in the flat above Miss White, | :01:52. | :01:55. | |
said police pressure had driven him to the verge of a nervous breakdown. | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
The original prosecution resulted in the wrongful conviction of three | :01:58. | :02:00. | |
innocent men. Eight police officers involved in that investigation are | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
accused of conspiring to pervert the course of justice. They've all | :02:03. | :02:11. | |
pleaded not guilty and the trial continues at Swansea Crown Court. | :02:11. | :02:13. | |
An independent Texas-based company has bought the Chevron oil refinery | :02:13. | :02:17. | |
in Pembroke in a �447 million deal. It is hoped the sale to a | :02:17. | :02:19. | |
subsidiary of Valero Energy Corporation will secure the | :02:19. | :02:29. | |
:02:29. | :02:31. | ||
refinery's future. It employs 1,400 people and is worth an estimated | :02:31. | :02:33. | |
�1.5 million a week to Pembrokeshire's economy. | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
The National Eisteddfod is underway in Wrexham all week. In this | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
afternoon's crowning ceremony, the winning poet was Geraint Lloyd Owen, | :02:40. | :02:42. | |
a former teacher who now works in publishing. Clearly emotional | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
during the ceremony, he attributed his success to his mother, who died | :02:45. | :02:48. | |
exactly 22 years ago and the motivation of having a younger | :02:48. | :02:57. | |
brother who's won twice before at the National Eisteddfod. | :02:57. | :03:00. | |
Rugby, and Lions hooker Matthew Rees is doubtful for Wales World | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
Cup warm-up game with England on Saturday. He's having injections | :03:02. | :03:06. | |
for a neck injury. The Cardiff Blues flanker Sam Warburton, who | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
skippered Wales in their defeat to the Barbarians two months ago, | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
looks likely to continue as captain at Twickenham. | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
Football, and Swansea City say they have agreed personal terms with | :03:16. | :03:19. | |
Wayne Routledge who will have a medical tomorrow. An undisclosed | :03:19. | :03:23. | |
fee with Newcastle has already been settled. Meanwhile Manchester City | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
manager Roberto Mancini says he'll give his blessing to Craig Bellamy | :03:25. | :03:35. | |
:03:35. | :03:40. | ||
With the weather forecast for Wales, August has got off to a | :03:40. | :03:44. | |
disappointing start, cloudy and Monday, and it will stay like that | :03:44. | :03:48. | |
for the next few days. A few showers and the forecast as well. | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
Plenty of cloud across the country with mist and hill fog. Outbreaks | :03:52. | :03:57. | |
of rain and drizzle which could be heavy during the early hours and it | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
will be a close night with temperatures not dropping below 15 | :04:00. | :04:05. | |
Celsius. An improving story tonight. The rain in the east will clear | :04:05. | :04:11. | |
away, then the country brightens up. Most of the country dry, but not | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
everywhere. A few showers breaking out during the afternoon. A warm | :04:15. | :04:20. | |
and humid day tomorrow with top temperatures of 23 Celsius. Colder | :04:20. | :04:25. | |
on the coast where it stays Misti. The wins will remain light. If you | :04:25. | :04:29. | |
are off to Wrexham, it will brighten up with a chance of a | :04:29. | :04:35. | |
share in the afternoon. Wednesday will continue warm and humid. | :04:35. | :04:39. | |
Thundery showers breaking out in the afternoon. On Thursday it turns | :04:39. | :04:47. | |
unsettled, so rain and showers. We'll have a full round up of all | :04:47. | :04:50. |
