:00:05. > :00:15.Welcome to Wales Today. Our top story - Queues at filling stations
:00:15. > :00:16.
:00:16. > :00:20.as motorists stock up fearful of a tanker driver strike. I am topping-
:00:20. > :00:25.up because of what I heard on venues, I live on the farm and I
:00:25. > :00:35.need my car. I just filled it up today instead of keeping his at my
:00:35. > :00:40.
:00:40. > :00:46.Our other headlines tonight - Your doctor's surgery should open for
:00:46. > :00:48.longer and on Saturdays - the message to GPs.
:00:48. > :00:51.Also tonight - A man is being questioned on suspicion of
:00:51. > :00:56.attempted murder following a collision between a cab and eight
:00:56. > :00:59.men in Cardiff. Casey Breese from Caersws died
:00:59. > :01:05.after a goal post fell on him - now new guidelines to prevent another
:01:05. > :01:15.tragedy. And it's seen better days, now
:01:15. > :01:17.
:01:17. > :01:20.Good evening. There've been queues at some filling stations across
:01:20. > :01:26.Wales as apparent panic buying kicked in ahead of concerns there
:01:26. > :01:29.may be a strike by tanker drivers. There's been criticism of a UK
:01:29. > :01:35.government minister who urged motorists to store spare fuel at
:01:35. > :01:40.home. Some filling stations are now running short with their operators
:01:40. > :01:50.saying it's because of the increase in demand, not supply problems.
:01:50. > :01:54.Roger Pinney reports. These days you can't get far on a
:01:54. > :01:58.10 pound. At this filling station they have restricted how many
:01:58. > :02:04.customers can buy. Just down the road they queue for fuel back up
:02:04. > :02:12.onto the road. Only a few motorists would own up to panic buying.
:02:12. > :02:15.Everybody is panicking so you can't win. That is it. I am topping-up
:02:15. > :02:21.because what I heard on the news at lunchtime, I thought, living on a
:02:21. > :02:26.farm, I need my car. I filled it up today instead of keeping it at my
:02:26. > :02:31.normal half fall. It has been really busy today and yesterday. We
:02:31. > :02:36.ran out of these so yesterday and petrol today. There's not enough to
:02:36. > :02:39.go around. I have been to half-a- dozen filling stations are the last
:02:39. > :02:44.hour and they all say they have been -- there's been a big increase
:02:44. > :02:48.in demand. Some say they are running short on diesel and others
:02:48. > :02:52.say petrol is getting low. It isn't because of any distribution
:02:52. > :02:57.problems, it is because of this rush to buy. What has kicked this
:02:57. > :03:01.off? There was this strike vote by tanker delivery drivers although
:03:01. > :03:07.any distraction it is a week away. There was this from a senior UK
:03:07. > :03:13.Government minister. There is no need for everybody to rest to the
:03:13. > :03:17.petrol station. The great extent that people have fewer when their
:03:17. > :03:21.vehicles, maybe a little bit in the garage as well, the long go will be
:03:21. > :03:31.able to keep things going. That advice has been criticised by the
:03:31. > :03:38.
:03:38. > :03:44.The UK Government advice has not gone down well with some motorists
:03:44. > :03:49.either. I think it is stupid. I really do. They haven't given
:03:49. > :03:54.notice of a strike. We have got a government coming on this morning
:03:54. > :04:00.and BBC News saying Phil a jerry can. And they're wondering why
:04:00. > :04:05.everybody is panic-buying. Absolute rubbish. Not handled well.
:04:05. > :04:11.Everybody was always going to start panic-buying. Once it came out on
:04:11. > :04:16.the news, everybody suffers. just isn't here in Wales. Demand is
:04:16. > :04:20.up by 45% across the UK. Government in Westminster and Cardiff are
:04:20. > :04:22.planning what to do if there is a strike. Motorists have reacted
:04:22. > :04:26.before then. Your GP surgery should open later
:04:26. > :04:29.in the evening and on Saturday mornings. That's what the Welsh
:04:29. > :04:33.Government wants. It published figures for opening hours for the
:04:33. > :04:37.first time today. Just under a third of surgeries are open for
:04:37. > :04:40.appointments throughout their core opening hours of 8am to 6.30pm.
:04:40. > :04:47.Another 26% came within an hour of that but 43% of practices, that's
:04:47. > :04:57.205 in Wales, were open for even shorter hours. More from Aled ap
:04:57. > :05:01.
:05:02. > :05:06.Dafydd. Good afternoon. This surgery near
:05:06. > :05:09.Caerphilly is amongst the minority in Wales. There is a doctor here to
:05:09. > :05:15.see patients between 8 o'clock in the morning at half-past six in the
:05:15. > :05:19.evening. We try to be available over the phone. The door is open as
:05:19. > :05:25.8 o'clock and we will offer appointments for blood to be taken
:05:25. > :05:31.early in the morning. We offer a ray chance for patients to make
:05:31. > :05:36.appointments on wine. We try to be as available as we can. -- online.
:05:36. > :05:40.Contracts for our doctors came into force nearly 10 years ago. The way
:05:40. > :05:46.they are implemented varies dramatically across the country.
:05:46. > :05:51.Fewer than one in three surgeries are open throughout the core hours,
:05:51. > :05:58.one health board was the worst performer. Wallace 6% of practices
:05:58. > :06:03.them at the targets. Better access to GPs was one of the headline
:06:03. > :06:11.pledges in labour's manifesto. They are trying to ease the burden on
:06:11. > :06:15.GPs. There is a great emphasis on pharmacies to provide services. It
:06:15. > :06:21.is an expectancy that doctors' surgeries will be open later in the
:06:21. > :06:24.evening and on weekends. The health minister says progress is well
:06:24. > :06:28.under way to eliminate half day closing surgeries and to extend
:06:28. > :06:34.opening hours. From April next year the Welsh Government wants greater
:06:34. > :06:38.access outside those core hours. I'm having discussions with the BMA
:06:38. > :06:43.and general practitioners, I talk to GPs all the time. We need to
:06:43. > :06:49.make sure that the News of the patients across Wales are met.
:06:49. > :06:52.Rejigging appointments can do that. The last government will not
:06:52. > :07:00.renegotiate the GP contract to try to force surgeries to open on
:07:00. > :07:05.Saturday morning. -- the Welsh Government. It will be up to health
:07:05. > :07:10.boards. The body representing doctors warning a Saturday you
:07:10. > :07:15.openings will mean cuts in other areas. There are lots of practices
:07:15. > :07:18.where the at providing a well- rounded diabetic service. More
:07:18. > :07:24.important for patients is that. It is a question of local health
:07:24. > :07:29.boards making those choices in terms of priorities. Juggling daily
:07:29. > :07:32.life with an appointment that the doctor isn't anything new. What is
:07:32. > :07:39.now being debated is how best to balance the needs of patients with
:07:39. > :07:45.the working life of doctors. Dr Peter Saul is a GP based in
:07:45. > :07:51.Wrexham and he joins me now. Good evening. For a lot of patience will
:07:51. > :07:56.wonder why all GPs' surgeries are not open for the full day.
:07:56. > :08:00.poise that the Health Minister was making are valid. There are calls
:08:00. > :08:06.opening hours and there before 8 o'clock and have parsecs. It does
:08:06. > :08:13.not mean there will be surgeries operating but there should be a
:08:13. > :08:19.doctor you can speak to. In most areas there is. Doctors don't just
:08:19. > :08:25.sit around doing surgeries. They do house calls, they do reports for
:08:25. > :08:29.patients, they have to do a lot of administrative work in line with
:08:29. > :08:33.meeting a lot of the targets of government has set, making sure
:08:33. > :08:38.that patients get the right treatment. The job has changed. If
:08:38. > :08:43.any of our viewers watched the Indian doctor, they would not
:08:43. > :08:47.recognise the way it is now. There are different ways of working.
:08:47. > :08:57.Let's pick a pub that point. Everybody is working in different
:08:57. > :09:00.ways including your patience. What about Saturday openings? Many GP
:09:01. > :09:06.practices would be quite happy to open on a Saturday morning provide
:09:06. > :09:11.the we get the resources. What when you buy resources? It needs to have
:09:11. > :09:15.to employ staff to cover the practice, there is heating bills,
:09:15. > :09:19.there is talking to the hospital, making sure somebody is at the end
:09:19. > :09:26.of the phone when you have a problem you want to discuss. Is
:09:26. > :09:31.there somebody there? This Saturday is is is a whole packet. I am not
:09:31. > :09:37.sure that in every practice the majority of patients want that.
:09:37. > :09:41.Some practices, if they're commuter tie practices, it may be important.
:09:41. > :09:44.It is much less importance for rural areas. Many thanks.
:09:44. > :09:49.A man in his fifties has been taken to hospital after a gas explosion
:09:49. > :09:52.destroyed his flat. The man, who hasn't been named, was at home in
:09:52. > :09:55.the first floor flat in the Saint Mellons are of Cardiff this
:09:55. > :09:57.lunchtime when the explosion happened. He was treated for burns
:09:57. > :10:02.to his hand. Neighbouring properties were evacuated and an
:10:02. > :10:04.investigation has begun. The Conservatives and Liberal
:10:04. > :10:07.Democrats in the National Assembly have said they're against
:10:07. > :10:13.introducing regional pay in Wales despite their UK parties' plans for
:10:13. > :10:16.it. During a debate in the Assembly, concerns were raised that thousands
:10:16. > :10:18.of public sector workers would be disadvantaged. Last week the
:10:18. > :10:27.Chancellor said some government departments could introduce
:10:27. > :10:31.regional pay deals from April. An elderly woman and her son from
:10:31. > :10:32.Cardiff, who were found dead at the bottom of cliffs, have been named.
:10:32. > :10:37.81-year-old Elizabeth Gosling and 58-year-old Christopher Gosling
:10:37. > :10:40.were discovered at Beachy Head in East Sussex last week. Two days
:10:40. > :10:50.before they died, Mr Gosling had been arrested on suspicion of

:10:54. > :10:57.A taxi driver is being questioned on suspicion of attempted murder
:10:57. > :10:59.following a collision between a cab and eight men in Cardiff. The 28-
:10:59. > :11:02.year-old was arrested yesterday near the city centre. One man
:11:02. > :11:06.remains in hospital with burns following the incident outside the
:11:06. > :11:10.Millennium Stadium. Police are appealing for witnesses. Matt
:11:10. > :11:13.Murray reports. It was a scene which shocked and
:11:14. > :11:17.scared people passing by. It's believed a street row between a
:11:17. > :11:19.group of rail workers and a taxi driver ended with this cab mounting
:11:20. > :11:25.the pavement and ploughing into the men just outside the Millennium
:11:25. > :11:30.Stadium. Many people in the capital on their way home stopped to help
:11:30. > :11:33.before paramedics tended to the injured on roads and pavements.
:11:33. > :11:41.Gaegam Cognard lives near to where it happened. He was the first
:11:41. > :11:45.person to alert the police. I saw and altercation. I saw
:11:45. > :11:51.someone being beaten up in front of the train station. He just walked
:11:51. > :12:00.away from the sea and the next thing I saw his a taxi cab running
:12:00. > :12:03.over them on the street. It was just here where it's
:12:03. > :12:06.believed taxi hit the group. The damage here is clear to see.
:12:06. > :12:11.Everyone I've spoken to has described it as a violent scene and
:12:11. > :12:14.police are appealing for witnesses. Eight people were taken to hospital.
:12:14. > :12:18.Only one 35-year-old man still remains and is being treated for
:12:18. > :12:21.burns. Paul Duffy is visiting Cardiff from Monaghan in Ireland.
:12:22. > :12:30.Last night he was walking past the stadium and described the scenes as
:12:30. > :12:35.chaotic. There are about six police cars, it
:12:35. > :12:39.was bedlam. I thought the bomb had gone off because they were so many
:12:39. > :12:42.people, ambulances and police were here. A taxi driver is still being
:12:42. > :12:45.held on suspicion of attempted murder while police examine CCTV.
:12:45. > :12:49.A report by MPs into the breast implant scandal has questioned the
:12:49. > :12:52.Welsh Government's policy on replacing them. The government here
:12:52. > :12:55.has offered to pay to remove and replace banned PIP breast implants
:12:55. > :13:02.for those treated privately, while in England the NHS will remove but
:13:02. > :13:06.not replace them. Of the 1,000 women affected in Wales, around 300
:13:06. > :13:12.have already been referred for treatment here. Let's talk to our
:13:12. > :13:17.parliamentary correspondent David Cornock.
:13:17. > :13:21.What is the nature of this criticism? This goes back to the
:13:21. > :13:27.decision when the scandal broke by the Welsh Government that it would
:13:27. > :13:33.not only pay to remove the implants but also pay to replace them. At
:13:33. > :13:37.the time the Health Secretary in England said that risk letting
:13:37. > :13:41.private companies of the up. That is an argument that found favour
:13:41. > :13:47.with the MPs who published their report today. The chair of the
:13:47. > :13:53.committee, an all-party committee of English MPs, says that as far as
:13:53. > :13:57.he is concerned the taxpayer should not end up picking up the bill for
:13:58. > :14:03.what is cosmetic surgery. What we're saying is that in England it
:14:03. > :14:07.should be for the women's choice and the woman's risk to have a
:14:07. > :14:12.replacement implants inserted as part of the same operation. It
:14:12. > :14:17.should be very clear, this is a new private sector procedure carried
:14:17. > :14:22.out in an NHS hospital like many private sectors procedures are. The
:14:22. > :14:26.responsibility for that should rest with the woman not with the NHS.
:14:26. > :14:31.How has the Welsh Government responded? The Health Minister has
:14:31. > :14:35.issued a statement today weight she points out health is devolved
:14:35. > :14:39.matter and says her response to the PA p issue has been based entirely
:14:39. > :14:43.on what is best for women in Wales needing help from the health
:14:43. > :14:48.service in Wales. A Welsh Government on theirs can do its own
:14:48. > :14:52.thing. Far fewer people affected in less than in England so the overall
:14:52. > :14:57.cost will not be as great. Much more to come before seven
:14:57. > :15:03.o'clock. This was Colwyn Bay in the good old days. Can the pier's new
:15:03. > :15:05.owner turn back the clock? Face to face with the past. Scientists in
:15:05. > :15:15.Swansea investigate if these are the remains of Welsh archers who

:15:16. > :15:19.The Football Association of Wales has written to every football club
:15:19. > :15:24.in the country with new guidelines following the death last July of
:15:24. > :15:28.12-year-old Casey Breese. Casey died after goalposts fell on him
:15:28. > :15:33.while playing football in Caersws. The FAW hopes it'll help prevent
:15:33. > :15:37.another tragedy. Cemlyn Davies reports.
:15:37. > :15:42.A star who'll never be forgotten. That was one of the tributes paid
:15:42. > :15:45.to Casey Breese after his death. A keen footballer, he was playing on
:15:45. > :15:50.this recreational field next to his village team's home ground when the
:15:50. > :15:58.goalposts fell on him. The 12-year- old was flown to hospital in
:15:58. > :16:03.Shrewsbury where he pronounced dead shortly afterwards. After what
:16:03. > :16:09.happened here the FAW launched an inquiry and even though he was not
:16:09. > :16:13.playing on this pitch, the chief executive of the FAW has sent this
:16:13. > :16:16.report to every club in the country with a series of new goalpost
:16:16. > :16:19.guidelines. They include banning the use of so-called homemade
:16:20. > :16:22.goalposts. These are posts which have been altered in some way. John
:16:22. > :16:26.Ford's letter also says portable goalposts should be properly stored
:16:26. > :16:31.when they aren't being used. All goalposts must be regularly
:16:31. > :16:39.inspected. Phil Woosnam helps run a league in mid Wales. He hopes
:16:39. > :16:42.others will follows the FAW's lead. We need to get the other bodies on
:16:43. > :16:50.board such as the county councils, the town and community councils, to
:16:50. > :16:56.help us. Cades arcades and they will play anywhere. -- cates
:16:56. > :17:01.arcades. That is difficult to stop but hopefully with these ideas that
:17:01. > :17:04.have come out from the FAW that will solve some issues. Casey's mum,
:17:04. > :17:06.Sian, told me she hopes what happened to her son never happens
:17:06. > :17:09.again. The FAW's aim, through its new
:17:09. > :17:12.guidelines, is to help ensure that's the case.
:17:12. > :17:15.Former workers at the Visteon UK car parts factory in Swansea have
:17:15. > :17:20.been demonstrating in Westminster to mark the third anniversary of
:17:20. > :17:22.the company entering administration. The group claim the value of their
:17:22. > :17:28.pensions dropped substantially when previous owner Ford transferred
:17:28. > :17:33.their retirement funds to the care of Visteon UK. Ford say it's an
:17:33. > :17:38.issue for Visteon to settle. A �40 million fund to support small
:17:38. > :17:41.and medium sized businesses has been set up. It's hoped it will
:17:41. > :17:43.create 4,000 jobs, with the money coming from the Welsh Government
:17:43. > :17:46.and the private sector. During a visit to Bridgend pharmaceutical
:17:46. > :17:48.company Biotec, business minister Edwina Hart said it would help
:17:48. > :17:56.businesses which sell directly to consumers, who are barred from
:17:56. > :18:04.accessing other funds. Where we had our last economic
:18:04. > :18:09.growth fund, the competition was intense. We allocated �50 million.
:18:09. > :18:12.We hope very much says people will want to access this fund as well.
:18:12. > :18:15.The future of Colwyn Bay's Victoria Pier looks a little more certain
:18:15. > :18:19.tonight, with Conwy Council taking over as its owner. The pier has
:18:19. > :18:21.been closed for four years and has fallen into disrepair. But it's
:18:22. > :18:26.hoped it will be refurbished as part of major coastal redevelopment
:18:26. > :18:30.in the town. Matthew Richards is there for us.
:18:30. > :18:33.Thanks Jamie. A shadow of its former self, there's been growing
:18:33. > :18:37.concern at the safety of the pier with pieces falling to the beach
:18:37. > :18:43.below. But controversy still surrounds the sale with the former
:18:43. > :18:47.owner claiming it still belongs to him.
:18:47. > :18:50.Built in 1900, Victoria Pier has had a turbulent history. Destroyed
:18:50. > :18:52.by fire in 1922 and badly damaged once again in 1933 it's had a
:18:52. > :18:58.number of private owners, most recently Cambridgeshire businessman,
:18:58. > :19:03.Steve Hunt, who took over in 2003. But he was declared bankrupt after
:19:03. > :19:06.a dispute with Conwy Council and lost control of it in 2008. But
:19:06. > :19:10.while he insists he still owns the pier and is challenging the council
:19:10. > :19:16.in court next month, it says it's now the owner and is working with a
:19:17. > :19:20.campaign group to attract �10 million in investment.
:19:20. > :19:27.People are starting to buy into that. They can see something to
:19:27. > :19:34.happen here so there is a lot of notice. In fairness, even those who
:19:34. > :19:39.say polyp down, they do wish us well. -- pour it down. They are not
:19:39. > :19:42.bought over that we can turn it around. The council says it wants
:19:42. > :19:45.to include the pier as a focal point of the major redevelopment of
:19:45. > :19:52.the town's seafront. That will prove expensive but the local
:19:52. > :19:56.tourist industry thinks its worth If you add a fully functioning
:19:56. > :19:59.paean and excellent opportunities for nightlife as well, you're doing
:19:59. > :20:02.something to put Colwyn Bay back on the map. Down along the promenade
:20:02. > :20:07.the day-trippers and dog walkers all agree that its past its best
:20:07. > :20:14.and needs urgent work. It would be lovely to see it done.
:20:14. > :20:18.Really nice. It isn't finished once they put his right, it will need
:20:18. > :20:23.lot of maintenance. It would be a shame to knock it down. Does the
:20:23. > :20:26.lick of paint! It should be renovated, definitely. It is part
:20:26. > :20:29.of this area. An announcement about Heritage Lottery money is due
:20:29. > :20:34.shortly, which could encourage more investment, that is if all the
:20:34. > :20:40.legal hurdles are overcome. If the development does go ahead, what is
:20:41. > :20:45.being proposed? Once you get past the basic repairs, as a cost enough
:20:45. > :20:50.in itself, they are talking about a modernised approach. They want to
:20:50. > :20:55.reopen the pavilion which was badly damaged in the fire in 1933. That
:20:55. > :21:00.could be used as it confirmed -- concert venues. They want to bring

:21:03. > :21:07.interpretation centre as well as a renewable energy section because
:21:07. > :21:12.there is a wind farm off the coast. Why has it taken so long to get the
:21:12. > :21:18.plans moving? In short it is because over the last five or six
:21:18. > :21:22.years there has been a lot of black -- at bled between the previous
:21:22. > :21:27.owner and Conwy County Council. He says it isn't fair their pier has
:21:27. > :21:31.been taken out of his hands and sold without his permission.
:21:31. > :21:39.Whoever is involved, most people think there is still life left in
:21:39. > :21:42.the pier. Many thanks. She was the pride of King Henry
:21:42. > :21:45.VIII's fleet, but in 1545 his warship, the Mary Rose, sank with
:21:45. > :21:48.the loss of nearly 400 lives. Now a team of sport scientists at Swansea
:21:48. > :21:52.University are analysing bones recovered from the wreck. They're
:21:52. > :21:57.hoping to learn more about life in the 16th century and to find out if
:21:57. > :22:02.some of the remains belong to Welsh archers. Carwyn Jones has more.
:22:02. > :22:06.Coming face to face with the past. This skull belongs to one of the
:22:06. > :22:10.hundreds of sailors and soldiers who died on board the Mary Rose.
:22:10. > :22:13.But just who was he? That's what Dr Nick Owen has to find out. He's a
:22:13. > :22:15.sports scientist at Swansea University so he's used to
:22:15. > :22:20.analysing the bodies of the living, not the dead, usually elite
:22:20. > :22:23.athletes. But the Mary Rose conservation trust asked for his
:22:23. > :22:30.help and that's because they needed to know if these remains belonged
:22:30. > :22:34.to archers who were on board the vessel when it sank.
:22:34. > :22:39.We had to think a little bit laterally. If these were living
:22:39. > :22:45.people, how would we deal with them? We were able to get living
:22:45. > :22:50.Archers down here and make predictions as to the effect of a
:22:50. > :22:56.lifetime of using longbow would have on their skeleton. What we
:22:56. > :23:01.found was looking at the top bit of this year, this is head that forms
:23:01. > :23:05.the elbow joint. On the right side this is about 50% larger in surface
:23:05. > :23:08.area than the left side. So these bones belong to someone whose arms
:23:08. > :23:11.and upper body experienced years of strain, most likely thorough the
:23:11. > :23:14.use of a heavy longbow. It's been documented that a company of
:23:14. > :23:18.archers were on board the Mary Rose when she capsized in 1545, off the
:23:18. > :23:21.south coast of England. The wreck was eventually salvaged in the
:23:21. > :23:25.1980's and on the sea bed archaeologists found hundreds of
:23:25. > :23:34.human bones. Those bones still contain traces of DNA, which are
:23:34. > :23:39.now being analysed by Nick's team. All of the information about these
:23:39. > :23:44.individuals is contained inside that DNA. These are 500-year-old
:23:44. > :23:47.bones, we can look at hair colour, I colour, perhaps Welshness.
:23:47. > :23:53.Tudor times, Welsh archers were the cream of the English army and were
:23:53. > :24:00.an important part of medieval warfare.
:24:00. > :24:04.You have the pike men, you have Archers providing covering fire. We
:24:04. > :24:07.did have a tradition of providing archers in Wales. It is likely that
:24:07. > :24:11.some of the marchers on the Mary Rose were Welsh. These boats
:24:11. > :24:15.represent just 1% of the total number of remains recovered from
:24:16. > :24:18.the Mary Rose. The techniques developed here at Swansea
:24:18. > :24:23.University of the potential to build a fuller picture of just who
:24:23. > :24:27.was on board that ship when it sank in 1545.
:24:27. > :24:37.Derek's out and about tonight for the forecast. Can we expect another
:24:37. > :24:39.
:24:39. > :24:47.It's a gorgeous evening here. A little bit hazy but wonderful views
:24:47. > :24:51.inland and down to the coast. So the weather today is the same as
:24:51. > :24:56.yesterday and the day before and it's not often you can say that in
:24:56. > :25:02.this country. Mind you, there is a change on the way. By the end of
:25:02. > :25:07.this week it will be cooler and cloudier. Now with a clear sky we
:25:07. > :25:10.have seen a huge rise and fall in temperature this week. A touch of
:25:10. > :25:19.frost in Knighton last night but John Goodger who runs a weather
:25:19. > :25:22.station at Velindre near Glasbury recorded 21C this afternoon. That's
:25:22. > :25:29.11 degrees above average and the highest temperature John has
:25:29. > :25:34.recorded in March for 40 years. It's beginning to cool down again
:25:34. > :25:36.now and tonight will stay dry. The sky clear so turning chilly inland.
:25:36. > :25:42.Temperatures in rural areas falling close to freezing again with
:25:42. > :25:47.another ground frost. If you look to the west you can see the planets
:25:47. > :25:50.Jupiter and Venus near the moon. Venus is really bright at the
:25:50. > :25:55.moment. Tomorrow's chart shows high pressure centred to the west of
:25:55. > :25:59.Ireland and that means cooler north-westerly winds for Britain.
:25:59. > :26:02.So tomorrow another fine day but with one difference. Some high
:26:02. > :26:09.cloud is likely so the sky won't be crystal clear and the sunshine will
:26:09. > :26:14.be hazier. Nevertheless another lovely day. Top temperatures in the
:26:14. > :26:19.south. 18 to 20C. Cooler in the north and west, especially on the
:26:19. > :26:24.coast with a breeze off the sea. In Caerphilly tomorrow, another fine
:26:24. > :26:27.spring day. Lots of sunshine and cirrus clouds. Temperatures in
:26:27. > :26:31.Blackwood rising to 19 Celsius with a light breeze. Friday - more cloud
:26:31. > :26:34.around. The odd spot of drizzle on the north coast but otherwise dry.
:26:34. > :26:39.Some sunshine and cooler, especially on the north and west
:26:39. > :26:42.coast with a breeze off the sea. The weekend cooler and cloudier.
:26:42. > :26:48.The odd spot of rain or drizzle otherwise dry. Temperatures nearer
:26:48. > :26:51.average. Hopefully some sunshine on Sunday. It looks like there's more
:26:51. > :26:54.dry weather to come next week. Further into April, though, there
:26:54. > :26:58.are signs it will turn more unsettled with some rain and
:26:58. > :27:01.showers. So more fine weather and hazy sunshine tomorrow. Cooler and
:27:01. > :27:11.cloudier everywhere by the weekend but I think we'll have to wait a
:27:11. > :27:14.
:27:14. > :27:16.while before we see any useful rain It is coming up to 7 o'clock.
:27:16. > :27:21.Tonight's headlines. The Prime Minister has suggested that
:27:21. > :27:26.motorists should top up on fuel encase the strike by tanker drivers
:27:26. > :27:30.goes ahead. Another minister advise family to keep a jerry can in the
:27:30. > :27:34.garage. In part of wears motorists had been queuing up for petrol.
