group of soldiers save a man's life Good evening. The parents of 17- | :01:17. | :01:20. | |
year-old Aamir Siddiqi who was killed after he answered his front | :01:20. | :01:25. | |
door, have been describing their terrifying ordeal. The teenager was | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
stabbed to death in front of his mother and father at their home in | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
Cardiff last year. They were also attacked as they tried to fend off | :01:33. | :01:41. | |
two masked men. Caroline Evans reports. | :01:41. | :01:46. | |
The day there boy died life lost is per person a Aamir Siddiqi's | :01:46. | :01:52. | |
parents. Sheikh Iqbal Ahmad and his wife were themselves stabbed in the | :01:52. | :01:57. | |
attack as they tried to protect their teenage son. The jury was | :01:57. | :01:59. | |
told how a 17-year-old Aamir Siddiqi was studying in his room | :01:59. | :02:05. | |
when the doorbell rang. The family thought it was there in man who had | :02:05. | :02:11. | |
come to teach him. He dashed to the door and was confronted by two | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
masked men. What happened next was terrifying said his father. The two | :02:15. | :02:19. | |
men pushed their way into the house and began stabbing him. He tried to | :02:19. | :02:24. | |
get away and made it back through the ball as far as the dining room. | :02:24. | :02:29. | |
One of the men followed him and stabbed him again. Sheikh Iqbal | :02:29. | :02:33. | |
Ahmad said the from somewhere he found the strength to paying one of | :02:33. | :02:39. | |
them to the wall but the man broke free and stabbed him. Aamir | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
Siddiqi's mother thought it was all a joke and that the dagger she | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
could see was a toy. When she realised it was all real she jumped | :02:47. | :02:51. | |
on one of the men grabbing his jacket Bertice last tour across the | :02:51. | :02:57. | |
left breast. Aamir Siddiqi's father estimates the attack lasted just | :02:57. | :03:02. | |
over a minute. He waiting for the ambulance to come he said was the | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
worst period of his life. He told police how his daughter is that | :03:07. | :03:12. | |
doctors. He checked to see if Aamir Siddiqi was still breathing, he was | :03:12. | :03:17. | |
not. Aamir Siddiqi's brother said she had run into this -- into the | :03:17. | :03:25. | |
street shouting for help. Two men are standing trial at Cardiff Crown | :03:25. | :03:31. | |
Court, Ben Hope and Jason Richards. They are both from Cardiff. Both | :03:31. | :03:36. | |
deny murder and attempted murder. We have yet to hear their evidence | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
and the case is expected to last 10 weeks. | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
The manager of the Gleision colliery has been released on bail | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
after being questioned over the deaths of four men at the mine in | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
Swansea Valley. 55-year-old Michael Fyfield was held on suspicion of | :03:48. | :03:53. | |
gross negligence manslaughter. Three more cases of E.coli have | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
been identified at a nursery on Anglesey. Tri Ceffyl Bach nursery | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
was closed last week as a precaution. It brings the total | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
number of cases to six. Further testing is being offered and | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
investigations into the outbreak are ongoing. | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
Two teenagers who were deported from Kenya and arrested on Monday | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
in the UK have arrived back home in Cardiff. Mohamed Mohamed and Iqbal | :04:16. | :04:19. | |
Shahzad were detained yesterday under the Terrorism Act but have | :04:19. | :04:24. | |
been released and no further action will be taken against them. Today | :04:24. | :04:26. | |
members of the Muslim community have thanked the authorities | :04:26. | :04:36. | |
involved. Whatever happens the community is | :04:36. | :04:42. | |
ready, co-operating with the authorities. Now, anyone who is | :04:42. | :04:49. | |
trying to defame the community of would like to mislead the youth, | :04:49. | :04:54. | |
they have seen with their own eyes we are not letting them get it -- | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
to get away with it. The health service in Wales will | :04:57. | :05:02. | |
fail unless it changes the way it works. That is the stark warning | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
from the head of the body which represents health boards here. | :05:06. | :05:07. | |
Speaking at the Assembly, the director of the NHS Confederation | :05:07. | :05:10. | |
said that with less money and an ageing population the NHS can't | :05:10. | :05:15. | |
continue to do the same things in the same way. So how can the health | :05:15. | :05:18. | |
service be expected to do more for less? Our health correspondent | :05:18. | :05:26. | |
Arwyn Jones has been finding out. The Health Service is facing a | :05:26. | :05:31. | |
period of change. Today that point was made very starkly by the head | :05:31. | :05:36. | |
of the body representing Wales's health boards. He the NHS can't | :05:36. | :05:43. | |
continue to provide a good service, a modern service, a service that | :05:43. | :05:47. | |
meets the increasingly changing needs to the people of Wales if we | :05:47. | :05:51. | |
continue to, for instance, concentrate power resources in | :05:52. | :05:56. | |
hospitals. There is less money for the health service but there is | :05:56. | :06:01. | |
also the challenge of an ageing population. Hour over 70 fives are | :06:01. | :06:06. | |
predicted to double in the next 20 years. With that comes the | :06:06. | :06:10. | |
challenge of delivering health services for individuals with | :06:10. | :06:15. | |
complex functioning needs, with multiple disabilities. It is a | :06:15. | :06:19. | |
difficult problem to solve but one possible answer being discussed is | :06:19. | :06:29. | |
:06:29. | :06:29. | ||
what is known as a virtue will ward. It works like a virtual -- like a | :06:29. | :06:32. | |
ward but they have preventative care rather than reactive care, if | :06:32. | :06:38. | |
you like the star this is what a virtual walk looks like. His health | :06:38. | :06:42. | |
boards are about to launch a pilot project and it works like this. | :06:42. | :06:52. | |
:06:52. | :06:52. | ||
Patience like Anna Owen as seen at home by a nurse. Her needs are | :06:52. | :06:57. | |
discussed with a GP and social worker, not in person but in a | :06:57. | :06:59. | |
television conference using technology to make life easier. It | :07:00. | :07:03. | |
is better for the patient because it reduces the need for hospital | :07:03. | :07:07. | |
treatment and it could save money. Supporters say it is a case of | :07:07. | :07:13. | |
doing more with less. Where the health service in particular will | :07:14. | :07:18. | |
save the money is that it would have to do emergency stuff because | :07:18. | :07:23. | |
we did not do the things we supposed to be doing. We will be | :07:23. | :07:28. | |
keeping people out of hospital. ideas some of these services you | :07:28. | :07:31. | |
need can be delivered to you at your home when it is convenient you. | :07:31. | :07:37. | |
If that can be done in a way this saves the NHS money better still. | :07:37. | :07:40. | |
There are other services more specialist services and for those | :07:40. | :07:44. | |
it is likely you will have to travel further. Changes like these | :07:44. | :07:50. | |
have been tried before. In 2007, they failed. The fear then it would | :07:50. | :07:54. | |
lead to the closure of hospitals. Health service managers say the | :07:54. | :07:58. | |
changes are essential because of the term inches the NHS is facing. | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
Opponents fear that having to travel further for specialist | :08:02. | :08:05. | |
services could endanger lives. Professor Siobhan McLelland is a | :08:05. | :08:11. | |
health economist. This is a problem that has been coming for some time. | :08:11. | :08:16. | |
We should not be surprised by the extent of the changes. No, we know | :08:16. | :08:21. | |
for example we have a growing older population. That means more people | :08:21. | :08:25. | |
living with chronic conditions. They have been advances in medical | :08:25. | :08:30. | |
technology and we have had report after report that says the way in | :08:30. | :08:35. | |
which NHS services are configured can't go on. We know that. We know | :08:35. | :08:40. | |
the period of financial growth was going to end. We did not anticipate | :08:40. | :08:44. | |
the cuts would be as hard-hitting as they turned out to be. None of | :08:44. | :08:48. | |
this is a surprise. The problem is we should have put some of these | :08:48. | :08:54. | |
changes in some years ago. We should realise the benefits that go | :08:55. | :08:59. | |
with them was not what you make of these cuts? Is it about cutting | :08:59. | :09:04. | |
around the edges? I don't think that managers will be able to cut | :09:04. | :09:12. | |
around the edges. We are looking at her relatively small increase in | :09:12. | :09:21. | |
money. You are looking at having significantly less money in the | :09:21. | :09:25. | |
system. Just freezing posts or stopping research and development, | :09:26. | :09:30. | |
that is not going to do it. We are looking at something more radical. | :09:30. | :09:34. | |
The danger is you cut the things that are easy rather than putting | :09:34. | :09:39. | |
in place a privatisation framework that says let's do the things that | :09:39. | :09:44. | |
are more effective for people. heard in the report about | :09:44. | :09:48. | |
potentially closing hospitals, about having to think about how | :09:48. | :09:53. | |
care is delivered. Hospitals are things people in their communities | :09:53. | :10:01. | |
like to hold on to. That is when politicians can get involved. | :10:01. | :10:05. | |
need a mature response from our politicians. In that particular | :10:05. | :10:09. | |
health board, people are provided care in their own home which is | :10:09. | :10:17. | |
more -- which is what most of us want. What we have to do is to take | :10:17. | :10:20. | |
the public with us, win their hearts and minds and show them | :10:20. | :10:26. | |
things can be delivered differently. It might need changes in hospitals, | :10:26. | :10:30. | |
travel for some services and we need to have a mature debate about | :10:30. | :10:35. | |
that particularly politicians who should not always jump on the Save | :10:35. | :10:38. | |
our hospitals bandwagon. With all public services having to | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
make savings a new report says that more than 10,000 jobs have gone | :10:41. | :10:45. | |
from the public sector here over the past year. There is a warning | :10:45. | :10:50. | |
that the pace of job losses is accelerating. It is a year to the | :10:50. | :10:52. | |
day since the UK government announced big cuts to public | :10:52. | :11:00. | |
spending. These people both have jobs in the | :11:00. | :11:05. | |
public sector. Jenny is on maternity leave. With public | :11:05. | :11:09. | |
spending being cut they both feel uncertain about what the future | :11:09. | :11:15. | |
holds. We have worked very hard and I worry what I am going to go back | :11:15. | :11:23. | |
into in March. I don't think there is talk of redundancies as such but | :11:23. | :11:29. | |
who knows? I would be concerned if we did lose staff. We're on the | :11:29. | :11:33. | |
edge as it is a start and you report suggests 10,000 jobs have | :11:33. | :11:36. | |
disappeared from the Welsh public sector already. With the warning | :11:37. | :11:41. | |
that the gloomy news is going to continue. The severity of cuts | :11:41. | :11:47. | |
would be as bad in Wales as we have seen another part of the UK. We are | :11:47. | :11:49. | |
just at the beginning in Wales because we delayed some of those | :11:49. | :11:57. | |
cuts. There is worse to come. have been protests. This one was | :11:57. | :12:01. | |
over the loss of 100 jobs at the Newport passport office, process | :12:01. | :12:06. | |
over the closure of the Mumbles coast outstation and police forces | :12:06. | :12:11. | |
are having to do with cuts of 4% a year. The fate don't tackle the | :12:11. | :12:16. | |
problem of the deficit you will see business confidence in the UK for. | :12:16. | :12:24. | |
International companies are less willing to invest here. If we | :12:24. | :12:28. | |
follow this so-called Plan B Allott borrowing rip again as the previous | :12:28. | :12:33. | |
government seemed to want, we will end up with higher end. -- | :12:33. | :12:40. | |
unemployment. The Assembly has seen his budget cuts as well. Ministers | :12:40. | :12:45. | |
in Cardiff Bay says it is time for the UK Government to change course. | :12:45. | :12:51. | |
This is a UK issue in terms of the way the economy is stagnating. We | :12:51. | :12:54. | |
have to watch out for that doubled their possession. We have always | :12:54. | :12:58. | |
said the cuts were too deep and too fast. The government has to | :12:58. | :13:02. | |
intervene. We are trying to intervene in Wales as effectively | :13:02. | :13:07. | |
as possible. Today's report is the second in a week to point at big | :13:07. | :13:13. | |
job losses. For Jenny and David Davies and for tens of thousands | :13:13. | :13:15. | |
working in the public sector in Wales that is the harsh reality of | :13:15. | :13:19. | |
the decisions taken by the Chancellor | :13:19. | :13:23. | |
Still to come on the programme - They saved a man's life with a | :13:23. | :13:28. | |
credit card. The soldiers who put their battlefield training to the | :13:28. | :13:34. | |

at the World Cup, hoping to clinch An application to test-drill for | :13:47. | :13:50. | |
gas in the Vale of Glamorgan is being discussed by the local | :13:50. | :13:54. | |
council tonight. There has been much local opposition to the plans | :13:54. | :13:58. | |
at Llandow over safety fears. Our environment correspondent, Iolo ap | :13:58. | :14:00. | |
Dafydd, is outside that meeting tonight A 39-year-old man accused | :14:00. | :14:03. | |
of driving a 4x4 up Snowdon has been charged with another similar | :14:03. | :14:09. | |
offence. What is the latest on the gas | :14:09. | :14:12. | |
drilling decision? You may remember three weeks ago | :14:12. | :14:17. | |
that they deferred the decision because they felt the councils on | :14:17. | :14:20. | |
the planning committee didn't have enough information. They went down | :14:20. | :14:25. | |
to the side this afternoon in the Llandow Business Park, where this | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
application for test drilling has been put forward. They will not be | :14:29. | :14:35. | |
an extraction of gas, only looking to test drill. The concerns are | :14:35. | :14:38. | |
that this business park, there are people who live near by and | :14:38. | :14:43. | |
businesses who might be affected by the drilling. It might be going for | :14:43. | :14:48. | |
six weeks. You referred to some of the history. | :14:48. | :14:54. | |
Consistently strong opposition. Of their safety fears as well? | :14:54. | :15:02. | |
Thereof. Quite numerous protesters outside the Vale of Glamorgan | :15:02. | :15:07. | |
headquarters. There are other protesters inside. They are quite | :15:07. | :15:14. | |
allowed in fear concerns about the process. If gas is extracted under | :15:14. | :15:18. | |
ground here in South Wales, they fear this hydraulic fracturing of | :15:18. | :15:26. | |
Wales -- of rocks, there are concerns about that because of what | :15:26. | :15:30. | |
has happened in North America. That is why these people are out here | :15:30. | :15:34. | |
now. Does this decision come down to an | :15:34. | :15:38. | |
argument between potential pollution and potential economic | :15:38. | :15:43. | |
benefit? I think the argument is about that. | :15:43. | :15:47. | |
The decision tonight will be to allow or not to allow test drilling. | :15:47. | :15:53. | |
The argument is actually much wider than that. Does it bring jobs? Does | :15:53. | :15:58. | |
it bring extra revenue for the Treasury? That is the pro argument. | :15:58. | :16:02. | |
The counter argument says there could be held fears with polluting | :16:02. | :16:05. | |
water and they could be dangers would like the earth tremors like | :16:05. | :16:10. | |
we saw in Lancashire. There is a connection between drilling for gas | :16:10. | :16:14. | |
insure and also of the tremors that were seen in the north-west of | :16:14. | :16:20. | |
England. Thirties the situation and those of the two main arguments. | :16:20. | :16:29. | |
Thank you for the latest. A 39-year-old man accused of | :16:29. | :16:33. | |
driving a utility vehicle up Snowdon has been charged with a | :16:33. | :16:36. | |
similar offence. Earlier this month Craig Williams from Cheltenham | :16:36. | :16:39. | |
pleaded not guilty to dangerous driving. He's now also been charged | :16:39. | :16:42. | |
in connection with a second incident when the same vehicle was | :16:42. | :16:45. | |
abandoned at the summit. Traders in Caerphilly town centre | :16:45. | :16:48. | |
are warning their businesses are at risk because part of one of the | :16:48. | :16:51. | |
main roads into the town has been shut for essential gas works. | :16:51. | :16:55. | |
They're planned to last until the end of November. One market trader | :16:55. | :17:00. | |
has told us she made just �11 last week. | :17:00. | :17:04. | |
Diversions, digging, and disruption. This is the scene on Cardiff Road | :17:04. | :17:08. | |
at the top of Caerphilly town centre. Old metal gas pipes run | :17:08. | :17:11. | |
underneath the roads and pavements here - they need to be replaced | :17:11. | :17:19. | |
with safer plastic ones. The indoor market is just around the corner. | :17:19. | :17:21. | |
It's normally bustling in here, today, just like many others now, | :17:21. | :17:25. | |
the customers have stayed away. Lisa Linnard's takings in her gift | :17:25. | :17:34. | |
shop are down 80%. On a good day, possibly 100, �120. | :17:34. | :17:40. | |
Last Saturday I took 22. Monday to Friday and took �11. I am worried. | :17:40. | :17:45. | |
I have three children so I am very worried. I have to go with it and | :17:45. | :17:50. | |
see what happens. I can't shut, as a gift shop, these are the most | :17:50. | :17:54. | |
important months. I can't shirt and I've got to try it. That's because | :17:54. | :17:58. | |
the months leading up to Christmas are normally the busiest. The | :17:58. | :18:04. | |
owners here have dropped rents to keep businesses afloat. | :18:04. | :18:11. | |
Retailers are struggling so we have helped them in this crucial time. | :18:11. | :18:15. | |
As a company, we are suffering but we have to do this to sustain them | :18:15. | :18:18. | |
through this difficult time. The market traders are hoping for a | :18:18. | :18:21. | |
boost next week, when the roadworks are moved further into town. But | :18:21. | :18:24. | |
it's the overall disruption that seems to be keeping shoppers away - | :18:24. | :18:31. | |
something the council is keen to reverse. I have got no doubt at all | :18:31. | :18:37. | |
that shoppers will be coming back in large numbers to Caerphilly. We | :18:37. | :18:42. | |
have been working to get a sense of momentum and get new activities | :18:42. | :18:47. | |
coming in. New shops have opened and the message is that Caerphilly | :18:47. | :18:50. | |
is very much open for business. Wales and West Utilities says it's | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
had detailed communications with everyone affected by the work - | :18:53. | :18:59. | |
which includes people living close to the town too. | :18:59. | :19:03. | |
The company has a representative on site to insure deliveries can get | :19:03. | :19:07. | |
through and says it is doing everything it can to minimise | :19:07. | :19:11. | |
inconvenience to local businesses and the public. Work should be | :19:11. | :19:14. | |
completed by the end of November. Lisa Linnard hopes that by then, | :19:14. | :19:16. | |
her business will be on the road to recovery. | :19:16. | :19:19. | |
To the Rugby World Cup and Wales have made their final preparations | :19:19. | :19:23. | |
ahead of tomorrow's 3rd place play off against Australia. After the | :19:23. | :19:26. | |
heartbreak of their semi-final defeat Wales are aiming to end the | :19:26. | :19:35. | |
tournament in style. From Auckland, here's Ashleigh Crowter. | :19:35. | :19:38. | |
Back at Eden Park for the final training session of the World Cup. | :19:39. | :19:42. | |
With empty stands and sunshine on the players' backs, it was hard to | :19:42. | :19:47. | |
believe this was the same stadium were tears were shed and Anderson's | :19:47. | :19:51. | |
crushed last Saturday. The pain of that semi-final defeat won't | :19:52. | :19:55. | |
disappear for a while. Finishing third in the World Cup will | :19:55. | :19:58. | |
certainly help. The support from everyone back home | :19:58. | :20:05. | |
has been class. We are gutted as much as everyone is at home. We | :20:05. | :20:11. | |
have to go this weekend to get the win and it is a thank you for all | :20:11. | :20:15. | |
the fans at home for supporting us. No one disputes Wales have played | :20:15. | :20:18. | |
well at the World Cup but the squad are aware that results are the | :20:18. | :20:23. | |
thing that matters. At the moment, island are the only top gear nation | :20:23. | :20:28. | |
they have beaten in this tournament. Tomorrow is a chance for them to | :20:28. | :20:31. | |
prove they are one of the top sides in the world by beating the | :20:31. | :20:35. | |
Wallabies. Tomorrow's much bite be the last time Shane Williams and | :20:35. | :20:39. | |
other stars will put on a Welsh shirt. This could be a long goodbye | :20:39. | :20:43. | |
as Welsh rugby bosses are trying to persuade Shane Williams to appear | :20:43. | :20:48. | |
one more time when Australia visit Cardiff in December. | :20:48. | :20:51. | |
I would love to finish off in the Millennium Stadium. There is no | :20:51. | :20:56. | |
better place to play. I would have my family and kids there. That is a | :20:56. | :20:59. | |
long way away. There is no doubt to the New | :20:59. | :21:02. | |
Zealanders will be supporting tomorrow. This would be club in | :21:02. | :21:08. | |
particular. Tonight this team is the home of former All Blacks and | :21:08. | :21:15. | |
they hosted a dinner for the Welsh club. Jimmy Robert's father was on | :21:15. | :21:19. | |
the guest-list. I spoke to him and he is fired up, | :21:19. | :21:23. | |
ready to press the button. We will see a good performance tomorrow. | :21:23. | :21:27. | |
Tomorrow will also mark the end for an emotional few weeks for the | :21:27. | :21:30. | |
President of the club. He was christened Barrie-Jon because of | :21:30. | :21:34. | |
his father's love of Welsh rugby but sadly, his father died before | :21:34. | :21:39. | |
the tournament began. He would have attended every Wales game. He is | :21:39. | :21:43. | |
now carrying out his father's last wish by sprinkling his ashes at the | :21:43. | :21:48. | |
ground where Wales played. Every World Cup, he was convinced, | :21:48. | :21:52. | |
as was I, that Wales would win the tournament. This year he was very, | :21:52. | :22:00. | |
very hopeful. We were only a little bit short. I know that this would | :22:00. | :22:05. | |
have been a very, very special tournament for dead to witness. | :22:05. | :22:09. | |
Unfortunately, the only way he could do so is by any taking him | :22:09. | :22:14. | |
with them. In 1987, Wales won this fixture in | :22:14. | :22:18. | |
the First World Cup. Adrian Hadley's last-minute try and a | :22:18. | :22:23. | |
touchline conversion snatching third place. 24 years on, Wales | :22:23. | :22:26. | |
will be disappointed with anything less than the same result. They | :22:26. | :22:30. | |
want to go out with a bang. Tomorrow, we'll be with fans across | :22:30. | :22:34. | |
the country as they watch the game. The Millennium Stadium was packed | :22:34. | :22:36. | |
for last week's semi-final and 15,000 fans have snapped up tickets | :22:36. | :22:41. | |
to watch tomorrow's match there too. We'll also be live in Auckland for | :22:41. | :22:47. | |
all the reaction. That's at 6:30pm tomorrow night. | :22:47. | :22:49. | |
The Football Association of Wales have re-affirmed their stance on | :22:49. | :22:52. | |
the Great Britain Olympic Team despite the appointment of Stuart | :22:52. | :22:56. | |
Pearce as its manager. The FAW say a joint-GB team is a threat to | :22:56. | :22:59. | |
their national identity and they don't want their players taking | :22:59. | :23:09. | |
:23:09. | :23:10. | ||
part. Pearce says he wants to pick players from all the home nations. | :23:10. | :23:13. | |
All of the home nations should come forward and put their players up | :23:13. | :23:17. | |
for selection. A lot of it will depend on the players' mentality, | :23:17. | :23:21. | |
if they want to be part of it, that would be fantastic. I think they | :23:21. | :23:26. | |
will be excited. This is a showcase of football. A solider who helped | :23:26. | :23:30. | |
save a man's life with a credit cared has been honoured by Canadian | :23:30. | :23:33. | |
police. Private Cai Thomas was on a night out with a group of soldiers | :23:33. | :23:36. | |
in Calgary when he was forced to put his battlefield training to the | :23:36. | :23:42. | |
test. Kate Morgan explains. They could be describing a scene | :23:42. | :23:49. | |
straight from the battlefield. Multiple stab wounds. Two at the | :23:49. | :23:52. | |
rear of his back... But it was a night out in Canada | :23:53. | :23:57. | |
that forced these soldiers to use their army instincts. | :23:57. | :24:01. | |
There was a man in trouble. He had been stabbed several times in the | :24:01. | :24:05. | |
back. He needed first-aid quite quick and he needed an ambulance as | :24:05. | :24:12. | |
soon as possible. The privates treated the casualty. They covered | :24:12. | :24:15. | |
up the wounds with a credit card. Improvising quickly, they used a | :24:15. | :24:23. | |
credit card to save the man's life. The normally you would be used a | :24:23. | :24:25. | |
chest seal for this kind of operation. | :24:25. | :24:31. | |
We used a card, putting slight pressure on it to create a seal and | :24:31. | :24:34. | |
stop any debris getting back into the lungs. | :24:34. | :24:37. | |
And it worked. They've now been honoured by Calgary Police Service | :24:37. | :24:40. | |
with an Exceptional Recognition Award. But for the soldiers it's | :24:40. | :24:43. | |
all part of the job as they prepare for future battle, and more life | :24:43. | :24:51. | |
and death emergencies. Derek is here. A real drop in | :24:51. | :24:58. | |
Well last night was the coldest night of the autumn so far for most | :24:58. | :25:02. | |
of Wales but the cold snap is on its last legs. It's going to turn | :25:02. | :25:11. | |
milder over the next few days. The wind picking-up as well. Tonight a | :25:11. | :25:13. | |
cloudy picture. A little patchy light rain and drizzle, especially | :25:13. | :25:16. | |
in the northwest. Monmouth may stay dry. Now last night, most places | :25:16. | :25:20. | |
had a slight frost. The temperature in Usk, Bala and Newbridge on Wye | :25:20. | :25:24. | |
dropped to -1 C. But it's a different story tonight. Temps | :25:24. | :25:27. | |
staying well above freezing with more cloud and a freshening south- | :25:27. | :25:34. | |
westerly wind. Tomorrow's chart shows high pressure over Germany. | :25:34. | :25:39. | |
South-westerly winds for Britain. This front will bring rain to | :25:39. | :25:41. | |
Scotland and northern Ireland. Tomorrow morning a milder start | :25:41. | :25:44. | |
compared today. Temperatures much higher so no frost but there will | :25:44. | :25:47. | |
be plenty of cloud. The odd spot of light rain or drizzle otherwise dry. | :25:47. | :25:50. | |
Breezy on the Lleyn Peninsula. Brighter skies in northeast. So a | :25:50. | :25:53. | |
good deal of cloud tomorrow. Spots of drizzle, mainly in the west and | :25:53. | :26:00. | |
southwest. Elsewhere dry. A few bright intervals. The best chance | :26:00. | :26:03. | |
of seeing the sun to the in the northeast, the north coast, | :26:03. | :26:06. | |
Monmouthshire and the Marches. Milder than today. Top temperatures | :26:06. | :26:12. | |
13 or 14 Celsius with a south- westerly breeze. In Wrexham | :26:12. | :26:15. | |
tomorrow. Mainly dry. Bright at times. Temperatures in Coedpoeth 14 | :26:15. | :26:17. | |
Celsius. For the rugby in Auckland. The weather fine and breezy. | :26:17. | :26:21. | |
Temperatures around 14 Celsius. Saturday breezy. Mostly dry. Some | :26:21. | :26:25. | |
sunshine but some rain is possible in the west. Sunday more uncertain. | :26:25. | :26:28. | |
There is a risk of rain but it may hold-off. Temperatures higher but | :26:28. | :26:37. | |
windy with strong to gale force Tonight's news is dominated by the | :26:37. | :26:41. | |
death of Colonel Gaddafi. There have been celebrations in Libya | :26:41. | :26:45. | |
after its former leader was shot dead. Graphic images of his body | :26:45. | :26:50. | |
have been broadcast around the world. He was captured and shot | :26:50. | :26:54. | |
dead in his home city of Sirte. The Prime Minister, David Cameron, said | :26:54. | :26:57. | |
he was proud of the role Britain had played in bringing about the | :26:57. | :27:07. | |
:27:07. | :27:08. | ||
end of Gaddafi's regime. I think today is the day to | :27:08. | :27:13. | |
remember all of Colonel Gaddafi's victims from stop for those who | :27:13. | :27:17. | |
died in the flight over Lockerbie, to live on Fletcher in a London | :27:17. | :27:21. | |
street. All of the victims of IRA terrorism who died through their | :27:22. | :27:29. | |
use of Lillian -- the Libyan Semtex. We should also remember the Libyans | :27:29. | :27:33. |
