:01:05. > :01:08.death of a Welsh MI6 officer has heard that a senior counter-

:01:08. > :01:13.terrorism officer had failed to examine some evidence in the case

:01:13. > :01:16.or pass it on to the investigation team. The detective leading the

:01:16. > :01:21.inquiry into the death of Gareth Williams from Anglesey said she was

:01:21. > :01:28.told only yesterday about the evidence found by MI6. From

:01:28. > :01:33.Westminster Coroners Court, here's Roger Pinney.

:01:33. > :01:36.Today this inquest attempts to get under the skin of the relationship

:01:36. > :01:41.between the murder squad detectives and the secret intelligence

:01:41. > :01:48.services. Gareth Williams work was so sensitive, a go-between was

:01:48. > :01:53.needed linking the woman investigating his death with his

:01:53. > :01:58.employers at MI6 and GCHQ. The coroner has questioned whether that

:01:58. > :02:04.system broke down. The headquarters in London. An inventory of Gareth

:02:04. > :02:08.Williams belongings were kept here, including a black bag of the same

:02:09. > :02:14.make that the one his later hit -- the his body was later found in and

:02:14. > :02:17.nine memory sticks. The detective only learned of the infantry in the

:02:17. > :02:22.last 24 hours. The inquiry into the death is still being treated as a

:02:22. > :02:27.murder hunt, 21 months after he died. Today the coroner has been

:02:28. > :02:32.told officers at another department of Scotland Yard did know about the

:02:32. > :02:37.infantry, the counter-terrorism command, the supposed go-between in

:02:37. > :02:41.the investigation. The detective superintendent from the counter-

:02:41. > :02:46.terrorism team was giving evidence and the clarinet made an outburst.

:02:46. > :02:50.I suggest you have not been impartial in the case, she said.

:02:50. > :02:54.Then she suggested the inquiry had been hampered because not all the

:02:54. > :02:58.him fit the -- the in affirmation was passed over to the

:02:58. > :03:03.investigators. I passed on all the information I felt was relevant, he

:03:03. > :03:09.replied. This image shows the inside of Gareth Williams London

:03:09. > :03:13.flat where his body was found in 2010. It was lying in a foetal

:03:13. > :03:18.position inside a padlocked bag. The bag had been locked on the

:03:18. > :03:27.outside. Last week an expert who'd tried to do it said he thought it

:03:27. > :03:31.was almost impossible to block the back from Wigan -- the sports bag

:03:31. > :03:35.from within. She said there would be submissions from a lawyer

:03:35. > :03:39.representing Gareth Williams's family. From their reaction, it is

:03:39. > :03:43.clear they are far from happy with the way his investigation has been

:03:43. > :03:46.handled. A 40-year-old man from Cardiff has

:03:46. > :03:50.been arrested on suspicion of money laundering and funding terrorism in

:03:50. > :03:53.Somalia. He is one of seven people being questioned by the

:03:53. > :04:00.Metropolitan Police. The arrests, which are related to a smuggling

:04:00. > :04:04.operation, also involved US A convicted murderer has been found

:04:04. > :04:07.guilty of strangling his neighbour with a TV lead. 65-year-old David

:04:07. > :04:13.Cook from Cardiff tied up Leonard Hill before killing him and

:04:13. > :04:18.stealing money. Cook was jailed for life in 1988 for strangling Sunday

:04:18. > :04:23.school teacher Beryl Maynard in a violent robbery. He'll be sentenced

:04:23. > :04:27.Nine people from Wales have been arrested by North Wales Police

:04:27. > :04:30.investigating the naming of the victim in the Ched Evans rape case.

:04:30. > :04:34.The Wales and Sheffield United footballer was jailed for raping a

:04:34. > :04:38.19-year-old woman at a hotel near Rhyl. Her name was subsequently

:04:38. > :04:46.published on Twitter. Victims of sexual offences are entitled to

:04:46. > :04:49.Opposition parties have accused the Welsh Government of a cover up over

:04:49. > :04:52.plans to reorganise the health service. Ministers have thrown

:04:52. > :04:54.their weight behind a report setting out the case for

:04:54. > :05:00.centralising health services, saying that the current system is

:05:00. > :05:10.too expensive to run. Here's our political correspondent Aled ap

:05:10. > :05:16.

:05:16. > :05:19.Campaigns have been a frequent occurrence at the steps of the

:05:19. > :05:22.Assembly but following months of protests against possible

:05:22. > :05:29.centralisation, there Welsh government is developing a new

:05:29. > :05:32.strategy, to sell the controversial plans to the public. It turned into

:05:32. > :05:37.a controversial issue at First Minister's Questions.

:05:37. > :05:41.Were you admit you have tried to keep it under wraps until after the

:05:41. > :05:45.local elections and now you have been caught out? It is time for

:05:45. > :05:50.some honesty. If you government is making the case, what exactly are

:05:50. > :05:55.you making the case for? I'm amazed to hear her say this is

:05:55. > :06:01.secret because we published it on the website. It is not even our

:06:02. > :06:05.report. This is scaremongering. Plaid Cymru were handed out

:06:05. > :06:09.leaflets saying that we were closing hospitals in Llanelli. Let

:06:09. > :06:14.me say something to the people of Llanelli and Aberystwyth, there is

:06:14. > :06:17.no threat to those hospitals. The Welsh Institute for Health and

:06:17. > :06:21.Social Care was commissioned to articulate a national case for

:06:21. > :06:26.change. The report published next week will say that centralising

:06:26. > :06:31.emergency services enables a mortality rate consistent with the

:06:31. > :06:38.average peer performance in England. Rationalising major trauma services

:06:38. > :06:41.can reduce mortality by 25% and that mortality in functional

:06:41. > :06:45.outcomes of patients with heart attack and major trauma were

:06:45. > :06:49.improved when services were centralised. All parties are in

:06:50. > :06:52.favour of centres of excellence but say they shouldn't be at the

:06:52. > :06:56.expense of services at district general hospitals.

:06:56. > :07:03.There is clearly a case for elective surgery to be done at

:07:03. > :07:07.centres of excellence but what we can't tolerate is some district

:07:07. > :07:11.general hospitals not being sufficient to back up accident and

:07:11. > :07:16.emergency departments. It is openly and transparently

:07:16. > :07:20.about the future of the health service. Don't say that on one hand

:07:20. > :07:26.we will have a health consultation and the other, care plans to

:07:26. > :07:32.railroad changes through. Each of the health boards have

:07:32. > :07:37.legally-binding financial targets this year, despite 150 year -- one

:07:37. > :07:43.and and �50 million bail-out. Some argue some changes have to be made.

:07:43. > :07:46.Most clinicians will have to be doing things as close as possible

:07:46. > :07:54.to the patient. Those things that really do need a very specialised

:07:54. > :07:59.team around you, the very expensive, the very complex end where there

:07:59. > :08:02.are a few people with those skills to do those things, I think we have

:08:02. > :08:06.to face reality. The Welsh government wants

:08:06. > :08:09.clinicians to play a more active role in describing the reasons for

:08:09. > :08:15.change and the nature of the proposals but not everyone is on

:08:15. > :08:19.board. Least of all Chris Overton, who was suspended in 2005 after

:08:19. > :08:22.raising concerns over the future of services.

:08:22. > :08:27.Doctors who work in centralised services already, the bigger

:08:27. > :08:32.hospitals, will be keen to have more doctors working their and

:08:32. > :08:36.their management will be keen to see a centralisation of services.

:08:36. > :08:43.The doctors who work in the rural community will be aghast.

:08:43. > :08:47.Final plans could be agreed in August. They are the latest set of

:08:47. > :08:49.reforms to the health service but no others have proved so

:08:49. > :08:52.controversial. Police investigating the death of

:08:52. > :08:55.Cardiff pensioner have arrested a 31-year-old man on suspicion of

:08:55. > :08:58.murder. 68-year-old Peter Lewis, who had learning difficulties, died

:08:58. > :09:01.after being stabbed in a communal hallway outside his flat in the

:09:01. > :09:03.Roath area of the city at the weekend.

:09:03. > :09:06.The future of this year's Brecon Jazz festival has been secured with

:09:06. > :09:09.the announcement that a Cardiff- based company has been chosen to

:09:09. > :09:12.promote the event. Orchard, who have previously organised Ponty's

:09:12. > :09:15.Big Weekend will be funded for this year's festival, and in the Autumn

:09:15. > :09:19.will submit plans for next year. A mother from Cardiff is standing

:09:19. > :09:24.trial for the murder of her seven- year-old son and for setting fire

:09:24. > :09:34.to their home to cover up the crime. The boy's father is also on trial

:09:34. > :09:50.

:09:50. > :09:53.for failing to protect him. Yaseen Ege died in 2010 after being beaten.

:09:53. > :09:56.Yaseen Ali edge was just seven years old when he died. A fire set

:09:56. > :09:59.around his body to cover up the crime started with fluid used to

:09:59. > :10:02.light barbeques. At Cardiff Crown Court today his mother mother Sara

:10:02. > :10:06.Ege stands accused of his murder and starting the fire and his

:10:06. > :10:09.father Yousuf Ali edge of failing to protect him. It was Sara Ege who

:10:09. > :10:12.dialed 999. At first she claimed that the fire at their home in

:10:12. > :10:15.Severn Road in Canton was an accident. But a post mortem exam

:10:15. > :10:25.showed had died before the fire had started, he'd suffered abdominal

:10:25. > :10:33.

:10:34. > :10:37.injuries and there were multiple injuries on his body. Later Sara

:10:37. > :10:41.Ege admitted to the police that she had started the fire after he died

:10:41. > :10:45.and that she had regularly beaten him. Most of the time I beat him,

:10:45. > :10:48.she said. This afternoon the jury was shown a video of a police

:10:48. > :10:51.interview with Sara Ege in which she said she'd heard voices telling

:10:51. > :10:54.her to hit Yaseen. But after that interview she changed her account

:10:54. > :10:57.blaming her husband Yousuf for all Yaseen's injuries and said she'd

:10:57. > :11:00.taken he blame because she feared violence from him. The prosecution

:11:00. > :11:06.say he must have known about the beatings his son was receiving and

:11:06. > :11:09.known that his son was suffering pain. They shared a room because of

:11:09. > :11:13.renovations that were going on in the house and he drove his son

:11:13. > :11:16.everywhere but he failed to protect him. Both Sara And Yousuf Ali Ege

:11:16. > :11:22.deny the charges against them. The case is set to last around five

:11:22. > :11:28.The heavy metal singer Bruce Dickinson is creating at least 250

:11:28. > :11:31.jobs at the St Athan military base in the Vale of Glamorgan. He's

:11:31. > :11:41.setting up a company to overhaul commercial airliners, as well as

:11:41. > :11:42.

:11:42. > :11:49.training engineering and flight staff. Our business correspondent

:11:49. > :11:53.Nick Servini has more. We are more used to seeing Bruce Dickinson as

:11:53. > :11:57.the lead singer of a heavy metal band. Today he was back in front of

:11:57. > :12:01.a microphone but this time fielding questions about his new business.

:12:02. > :12:07.It will start by maintaining aircraft with a few hundred staff.

:12:07. > :12:10.The longer term plan is to train pilots and engineers as well. He is

:12:10. > :12:14.already a qualified pilot and has a team behind him that he freely

:12:14. > :12:20.admits to not having done anything on this scale before.

:12:20. > :12:25.I'm not an engineer. In fact, I know enough about Engineering to

:12:25. > :12:29.know that I don't want to put a spanner anywhere near an aircraft.

:12:29. > :12:33.I will have him do it. I do understand what engineers do. I

:12:34. > :12:40.understand the nature of the problems the business will face.

:12:40. > :12:44.St Athan is a 1,000 acre site and it is full of empty hangars like

:12:44. > :12:49.this one. This one has been empty since March when the RAF stopped

:12:49. > :12:54.repairing aircraft here after 75 years. It will now have a different

:12:54. > :13:00.future, maintaining commercial airliners. Will this idea get out

:13:00. > :13:04.of the hangar? St Athan is in one of Wales enterprise zones, given

:13:04. > :13:08.potential tax breaks. It has seen more than its fair share of

:13:08. > :13:12.projects come and go, including plans for a defence training

:13:12. > :13:16.academies. We would like to have done it

:13:16. > :13:21.differently. Perhaps you would have done it differently. I think this

:13:22. > :13:25.is quite real and on the back of this, we have had other interest on

:13:25. > :13:29.the site. All we have to do now is market the size.

:13:29. > :13:32.Bruce Dickinson believes there is a gap in the market but we will soon

:13:32. > :13:37.see that if he is right when the keys to the hangar are handed over

:13:37. > :13:40.in the summer. Much more to come before 7 o'clock:

:13:40. > :13:50.It'll be a Welsh medal whoever wins at the Olympics and Paralympics.

:13:50. > :13:52.

:13:52. > :13:55.Local election candidates are gearing up for the final day of

:13:55. > :13:57.campaigning before voters go to the polls on Thursday. While there are

:13:57. > :14:00.around a thousand local battles being fought, the election is being

:14:00. > :14:05.seen as a key test for the political parties at a national

:14:05. > :14:09.level. Our Welsh Affairs Editor Vaughan Roderick reports.

:14:09. > :14:14.Rain or not, alas leaflets are being delivered and the last doors

:14:14. > :14:19.are being knocked. Over 3,000 candidates are fighting for 1,200

:14:19. > :14:24.seats. He Labour want to reclaim as many as possible of the seats on

:14:24. > :14:31.councils lost in 2008. Atypical target is Flintshire. A former

:14:31. > :14:37.stronghold lost four years ago. A poll suggests a victory could be

:14:37. > :14:40.within their grasp. 48 % of those interviewed across Wales told the

:14:40. > :14:47.poult they would be voting for Labour on Thursday. The

:14:47. > :14:57.Conservatives were on 17 %, Independent on 15 %, Plaid Cymru on

:14:57. > :15:00.

:15:00. > :15:05.14 % and the Liberal Democrats on 7%. In counties like Conwy, where

:15:05. > :15:08.Labour is less of a force, they could be good news for the

:15:08. > :15:13.Conservatives. Gains from independence and other parties

:15:13. > :15:17.could offset losses to labour elsewhere. We are mid-term and

:15:17. > :15:21.there has been traditionally some impact as a consequence of tough

:15:21. > :15:25.decisions that governments tend to take in mid-term. But people have

:15:25. > :15:28.got to realise in Wales that they have got to governments. They have

:15:28. > :15:33.also got the Welsh Government and it is the Welsh Government that has

:15:33. > :15:37.taken an awful lot of decisions that have impacted very badly.

:15:37. > :15:41.Plaid Cymru hope that gains in rural areas may offset losses in

:15:41. > :15:46.the east. Beating off Labour to hold on to power in Caerphilly will

:15:46. > :15:50.be a tough ask. The new leader dropped by to lend a hand at a

:15:50. > :15:54.local crisp factory. Labour have been complacent in some of these

:15:54. > :15:56.communities and we need to make sure we have got a strong team of

:15:56. > :16:01.community activists in every community throughout Wales so that

:16:01. > :16:07.we can start building our economies and communities from the grassroots

:16:07. > :16:10.up. Her but what to the voters make of other new Plaid Cymru leader?

:16:10. > :16:17.She is second in popularity to Carwyn Jones, ahead of Kirsty

:16:17. > :16:23.Williams and Andrew Davies. But in the valleys, Labour can hardly hide

:16:23. > :16:26.their optimism. The last council elections took place against a very

:16:26. > :16:32.negative backdrop of a Labour government introducing policies

:16:32. > :16:35.that were not popular at the time. It was largely because of the

:16:35. > :16:39.national scenario that we lost control in the first place. With

:16:39. > :16:43.almost 100 fewer candidates than last time, the Liberal Democrats

:16:43. > :16:49.are fighting a defensive battle, hoping local strength in places

:16:49. > :16:53.like Cardiff will see them through. We are focusing our resources. We

:16:54. > :16:59.are not standing as many candidates. In areas where we are strong, we

:16:59. > :17:06.have seen an increase in the number of candidates. We are focusing our

:17:06. > :17:09.resources. It is quality, not quantity that matters. He it will

:17:09. > :17:13.be tee-time on Friday before the full picture across Wales is known.

:17:13. > :17:16.With local government battles coming down to a handful of votes,

:17:17. > :17:22.campaigning will go down to the wire.

:17:22. > :17:25.How seriously should we take this polling data? There are some

:17:25. > :17:30.caveats. It is difficult to poll because not everyone stands

:17:30. > :17:33.everywhere. There may be people who say they will go Plaid Cymru or

:17:33. > :17:38.Conservative, but then get to the polling station and find there are

:17:38. > :17:42.no candidates for that party. This was also about a fortnight ago. But

:17:42. > :17:47.it does show that Labour is strong. What has happened since should make

:17:47. > :17:51.Labour even stronger with what is going on at the UK level. It is a

:17:51. > :17:56.good indication of the Labour recovery that started in the

:17:56. > :18:00.Assembly elections last year. seems to be a question of how well

:18:00. > :18:04.will Labour do. I think it is entirely that. I think the party

:18:04. > :18:07.will be trying to contain expectations. They will be trying

:18:08. > :18:13.to get back outright control of councils. Some are easier than

:18:13. > :18:20.others. Swansea and Newport might be low-lying fruit. If they can win

:18:20. > :18:22.Cardiff, that would be the real test.

:18:23. > :18:25.Give us back our bus service. That's the call from angry

:18:25. > :18:27.residents of a Carmarthenshire village who travelled to the

:18:27. > :18:30.Assembly today to make themselves heard. People living in Pencarreg

:18:31. > :18:33.say the decision to re-route the Arriva bus in the Lampeter area has

:18:33. > :18:36.left them stranded. Abigail Neal reports.

:18:36. > :18:44.Ruth Jones' house has become campaign headquarters for a bus

:18:44. > :18:51.service that's desperately missed. I was going to Lampeter getting my

:18:51. > :18:53.shopping, pension, Dr, hospital. For 55 years, Ruth Jones caught the

:18:53. > :18:58.hourly bus that stopped just outside her house in Pencarreg,

:18:58. > :19:03.until two months ago, when Arriva took her village off route. The new

:19:03. > :19:07.bus route turns off here in Llanybydder. Arriva say it changed

:19:08. > :19:10.because they became a completely commercial service. Instead of

:19:11. > :19:15.continuing along the main road to Lampeter, the bus now cuts up

:19:15. > :19:18.towards Llanwnen and then back along the main route to Aberaeron.

:19:18. > :19:28.That's left Pencarreg and Cwmann in the south and Cribyn to the north

:19:28. > :19:33.

:19:33. > :19:39.cut off. Arriva say it enables them to run a faster and more effective

:19:39. > :19:42.bus service. Fed up residents from Pencarreg paid for their own

:19:42. > :19:51.minibus and set off for Cardiff Bay this morning, hoping political

:19:51. > :19:59.pressure might change things. think they could have a partial

:19:59. > :20:02.reintroduction at the very least. We see no reason why they can't

:20:02. > :20:07.split. We are not asking for the hourly service we used to have, but

:20:07. > :20:11.some sort of Schedule service four times a day would be a lifeline.

:20:11. > :20:17.Bwcabus service run by the council was intended to fill the gap, but

:20:17. > :20:22.it hasn't impressed some. I said, if I want someone to come with me,

:20:22. > :20:25.or will they be able to? Not unless they are registered. It is

:20:25. > :20:28.ridiculous. Meanwhile, in Llanybydder, the bus did eventually

:20:28. > :20:30.turn up for the eleven o'clock service. Arriva told me the 10.04am

:20:31. > :20:34.suffered a breakdown. The Pencarreg party got to their destination on

:20:34. > :20:38.time, handing over a petition of 500 names and a message to the

:20:38. > :20:41.Welsh Government to put them back on route.

:20:41. > :20:45.The athletes are training hard and the medals they're hoping to win

:20:45. > :20:48.this summer are being made a the Royal Mint in Llantrisant. The

:20:48. > :20:50.Olympic medals are ready and the Paralympic medals are in their

:20:51. > :20:58.final stage of production. Claire Summers has been given sneak

:20:58. > :21:02.preview. It takes huge dedication to win a

:21:02. > :21:06.medal and it takes a huge effort to make one. With thousands of Olympic

:21:06. > :21:10.and Paralympic medals needed this summer, has a team of experts are

:21:10. > :21:15.working on what will be the biggest and heaviest medals ever to be seen

:21:15. > :21:20.at the Games. Colin will have been working at the Royal Mint 40 years

:21:20. > :21:26.next week. He is responsible for a soldier in the amount to the metal

:21:26. > :21:31.and he said it is a huge honour. Brilliant. Out of this world. It is

:21:31. > :21:36.a one-off occasion. By the metal to make the medals comes from a copper

:21:36. > :21:41.mine in America. They had shipped over more than eight tonnes of gold,

:21:41. > :21:44.silver and copper. The medal shows any image of an outstretched wing

:21:44. > :21:50.of the Greek goddess of victory and there is Braille on the edges for

:21:50. > :21:54.the Paralympic medal. The Olympic medals, 4,700 and needed this

:21:55. > :22:01.summer, and each medal will go through 22 processes before it is

:22:01. > :22:05.finished. When we saw the designs on paper, it was exciting. When you

:22:05. > :22:09.progress down the road of the project, we thought, we really have

:22:09. > :22:13.to make these medals. We are still having sleepless nights because we

:22:13. > :22:17.are still in production and the games is not moving. Thankfully we

:22:17. > :22:21.are on track with the medals. The Olympic medals are competed well

:22:21. > :22:26.ahead of the games and we are now into the Paralympic medals as well.

:22:26. > :22:29.Her this is the striking room. This is where they get their impression

:22:29. > :22:33.this stamp is very heavy. These are some of the medals that will

:22:33. > :22:39.eventually become gold Paralympic medals when they are finished. Just

:22:39. > :22:46.up there, that is the machine that does it is the plant in the centre

:22:46. > :22:54.of the collar. They have got the top tier. We close the guard. Press

:22:54. > :23:00.the buttons for it to go. We are here in the river in a room. The

:23:00. > :23:06.final process. Here are the purple Paralympic ribbons and do you get

:23:06. > :23:11.nervous putting the final touches to these metals? Nerve-racking,

:23:11. > :23:14.absolutely nerve-racking. They are all as special as the other.

:23:14. > :23:19.are you going to feel this summer watching the games and letting them

:23:19. > :23:24.put their medals around their neck? Her really proud. I will tell my

:23:24. > :23:32.son, that is what I did. athletes like Dai Green has been

:23:32. > :23:37.working so hard to try and achieve this. The Olympic medal is the

:23:37. > :23:41.dream and this summer one could be his. This is how it starts out and

:23:41. > :23:45.22 processes later this is the end result. It feels quite an honour to

:23:45. > :23:51.be holding this right now. In just under four months, it will be round

:23:51. > :23:53.the neck of a worthy winner. Snooker, and Ryan Day has the upper

:23:53. > :23:57.hand in the all-Welsh quarter-final at the World Championships in

:23:57. > :24:04.Sheffield. It's brightened up a bit after the

:24:04. > :24:08.I think we've seen the worst of the rain for the time being. It's dry

:24:08. > :24:11.here at the moment, which makes a change. But after all the rain

:24:11. > :24:16.we've had recently, the River Taff is still quite high. April in Wales

:24:16. > :24:22.was one of the wettest in 100 years. We had about 75% more rainfall than

:24:22. > :24:25.normal and five times more rain than April last year. Meanwhile,

:24:25. > :24:29.John Goodger, who runs a weather station at Velindre near Glasbury

:24:29. > :24:35.in Powys, recorded his wettest April on record. 236mm of rain,

:24:35. > :24:43.almost three and half times the average. John's records go back 40

:24:43. > :24:49.years. Some rivers are swollen. At the moment, there are two flood

:24:49. > :24:53.warnings in force on the River Monnow and five flood alerts. The

:24:54. > :24:58.next 24 hours, though, are looking much drier. So,. This evening rain

:24:58. > :25:03.in parts of Mid Wales and the northwill die away. Most of the

:25:03. > :25:07.country will be dry overnight. Plenty of cloud and some hill fog.

:25:07. > :25:10.A few mist and fog patches forming. Clear in parts of the south and

:25:10. > :25:13.west. The wind light with lowest temperatures around six degrees

:25:13. > :25:17.Celsius. Tomorrow will be much drier than today. A grey start in

:25:17. > :25:21.places with mist and fog patches. Bright in others. The best of the

:25:21. > :25:25.sunshine in parts of the south and west. I wouldn't rule out the odd

:25:25. > :25:29.shower but most places dry. Top temperatures between 12 and 16

:25:29. > :25:31.degrees Celsius. It will feel pleasant in the sunshine with light

:25:31. > :25:35.winds. Tomorrow night, a few showers, but otherwise dry. However,

:25:35. > :25:39.rain may spread into the south later in the night. On Thursday,

:25:39. > :25:42.the south could be wet with heavy rain for a time. The rain may

:25:42. > :25:45.spread into Mid Wales but northern parts may stay dry, bright and

:25:45. > :25:48.sunny. As for the Bank Holiday weekend, don't bank on it being

:25:48. > :25:51.warm. It looks like turning cooler. A few showers but some dry and

:25:51. > :25:54.bright weather likely as well. Temperatures nothing special and

:25:54. > :25:58.cold enough at night for a touch of frost inland. So, much drier for a

:25:58. > :26:03.change tomorrow. But there is a risk of more rain in the south on
