:01:22. > :01:23.

:01:23. > :01:26.Good evening. A 31-year-old man has appeared in

:01:26. > :01:31.court charged with murder and 13 counts of attempted murder

:01:31. > :01:35.following a series of hit and run incidents in Cardiff on Friday.

:01:35. > :01:43.Matthew Tvrdon has been remanded in custody. Six people are still in

:01:43. > :01:47.hospital tonight, including three children. After the chaotic scenes

:01:47. > :01:54.in the west side of the city, everyone involved is still coming

:01:54. > :02:00.to terms with what happened. Nick Palit reports. 31-year-old Matthew

:02:00. > :02:04.Tvrdon was in court this morning to face 19 charges of hit and runs on

:02:04. > :02:09.Friday afternoon. In court he spoke only to confirm his name and was

:02:09. > :02:13.remanded in custody. He was charged with one count of murder, 13 of

:02:13. > :02:23.attempted murder, four of occasioning actual bodily harm and

:02:23. > :02:24.

:02:24. > :02:29.The community of Ely are still reeling after the events of Friday

:02:29. > :02:34.afternoon, a tragedy which claimed the life of a young woman and left

:02:34. > :02:38.13 as a this -- others including seven children in hospital.

:02:38. > :02:41.Yesterday the committee came together at the spot where Karina

:02:41. > :02:46.Menzies died. This is not a plea to the community

:02:46. > :02:52.but Cardiff and the whole of the UK. We need to raise funds. The

:02:52. > :03:00.children have been left with no mother and no future, nobody. I

:03:00. > :03:05.can't express... Nearly �2,000 has already been

:03:05. > :03:09.raised. It was a good send-off. We raised

:03:09. > :03:12.loads of money, in the thousands already, and it wasn't even a

:03:12. > :03:16.fundraiser. Police say their investigation is

:03:16. > :03:21.ongoing and they are keen to gather as much CCTV footage of the ban as

:03:21. > :03:26.possible. From that they had ticket -- piece together the sequence of

:03:26. > :03:29.events. They also want information on a black Renault Cleo speeding

:03:29. > :03:34.along the wrong side of the road along Western Avenue towards Ely a

:03:34. > :03:37.few minutes before the band began its journey on Friday. Police say

:03:37. > :03:42.the white van was involved in five separate collisions spread out over

:03:42. > :03:49.an area of around three miles. They had their first call from a member

:03:49. > :03:52.of the public from Ely, where two children suffered arm, leg and head

:03:52. > :03:56.injuries and 29-year-old woman was injured.

:03:56. > :04:02.I was worried about my own children because my sister was looking after

:04:02. > :04:07.my son. I was really worried. There were also called to Cowbridge

:04:07. > :04:11.Road West, where 22-year-old woman suffered leg injuries and to 24-

:04:11. > :04:21.year-old man and to-year-old goal were also injured.

:04:21. > :04:21.

:04:22. > :04:26.As a parent, the streets have got to be safe for them. I just want to

:04:26. > :04:31.pay my respects, that saw. Police believe the incident lasted

:04:31. > :04:35.around 30 minutes. It was a Ely fire station with 32-year-old

:04:35. > :04:40.Karina Menzies was killed. Hill also the youngest victim, a toddler,

:04:40. > :04:44.was heard alongside another goal. On this fire station forecourt

:04:44. > :04:49.where Karina Menzies was knocked down and killed, there is a scene

:04:49. > :04:54.of floral tributes. Three days on, the outpouring narrow -- of grief

:04:54. > :04:58.continues with flowers, candles and soft toys arriving by the minute.

:04:58. > :05:06.The grey, wet, miserable day matches the sombre mood of this

:05:06. > :05:11.community in mourning. A 32-year-old man and two girls

:05:11. > :05:15.were also injured. Over Leckwith retail park, the oldest victim, a

:05:15. > :05:19.49-year-old woman, who is still in hospital with multiple injuries.

:05:19. > :05:23.The 27-year-old woman was also injured next to Cardiff City

:05:23. > :05:27.stadium. At the stadium itself they are raising money at tomorrow's

:05:27. > :05:32.game against Watford and happen to special T-shirts to remember Karina

:05:32. > :05:38.Menzies. As a parent it is just hard to

:05:38. > :05:42.understand what people are going through. Anything that anyone can

:05:42. > :05:45.do, ourselves included, it is only a small thing we can do that

:05:45. > :05:49.anything will help. Meanwhile, Matthew Tvrdon is back

:05:49. > :05:53.in court tomorrow, due to appear via video link before a court --

:05:53. > :05:57.judge at Newport Crown Court. And our reporter, Sian Lloyd, is in

:05:57. > :06:01.Ely for us this evening. Sian, what more can you tell us about those

:06:01. > :06:05.injured? We have the latest condition check

:06:05. > :06:10.from the University Hospital of Wales. Six people remain in

:06:10. > :06:13.hospital tonight, three adults and three children, but two adults

:06:13. > :06:19.described as being in a critical but stable condition over the

:06:19. > :06:23.weekend, we are told that they are improving tonight. Of course, a

:06:23. > :06:27.great sense of shock here in Ely. The community that has been struck

:06:27. > :06:32.by this. Since I have been here, the amount of flowers has been

:06:32. > :06:38.growing steadily. People have been pausing to read the messages,

:06:38. > :06:43.candles have been left here at this evening as well, people remembering

:06:43. > :06:48.particularly Karina Menzies, who was knocked down in this spot. The

:06:48. > :06:53.chief executive of the Cardiff and vale University Health Board has

:06:53. > :06:57.spent his staff, saying they work round the clock over the weekend --

:06:57. > :07:03.thanked his staff, treating those who were injured on Friday evening

:07:03. > :07:06.at the accident and emergency unit, which had to be shut, such was the

:07:06. > :07:10.scale of this incident. A number of people have been discharged since

:07:10. > :07:14.then, but this evening, the thoughts here are very much with

:07:14. > :07:18.the families of those who have been hurt.

:07:18. > :07:21.Sian Lloyd in Ely, thank you. Tributes have been paid to the

:07:21. > :07:24.victims of a fire in Prestatyn which killed a mother, her baby boy,

:07:24. > :07:27.niece and nephew. The baby's father is still critically ill in hospital.

:07:27. > :07:32.A man and woman who live in the flat below are still being

:07:32. > :07:35.questioned on suspicion of murder. As this neighbourhood continues to

:07:35. > :07:38.ask the question, why, police and fire investigators are still

:07:39. > :07:41.looking for their own answers. 20- year-old Lee Anna Shiers, described

:07:42. > :07:43.as friendly and caring, was looking after her nephew, Bailey, a happy,

:07:44. > :07:46.loud, outdoor-loving four-year-old, his two-year-old sister, Skye, who

:07:46. > :07:55.loved butterflies and dressing up as a princess, and her 15-month-old

:07:56. > :07:59.son, Charlie. All four died as a result of the intense fire in this

:07:59. > :08:02.first floor flat. The two older children went to playgroup and

:08:02. > :08:06.nursery here. Their parents wanted fellow pupils to know what had

:08:06. > :08:12.happened. A youth pastor from the local church is on hand to address

:08:12. > :08:17.their concerns. They have come up and just said, we

:08:18. > :08:23.don't understand it. We as a church and myself as be used Pastor are

:08:23. > :08:27.here to serve the community and these young people -- a youth

:08:27. > :08:30.pastor. I have to be here for them. Charlie's father, Liam Timbrell, is

:08:30. > :08:33.in a critcial condition in hospital. Until recently, he worked at this

:08:33. > :08:36.cafe in Prestatyn's Scala Cinema. He was a popular member of staff,

:08:36. > :08:42.and still visited regularly with his baby boy.

:08:42. > :08:47.Always so considerate, always used to bring us drinks and things. We

:08:47. > :08:49.used to call him Harry because he looks like Harry Potter. A nice man.

:08:49. > :08:53.A fundraising event is being planned for next month to support

:08:53. > :09:01.his recovery. We will be showing films in the

:09:01. > :09:05.cafe where he worked, and also have some food, to do something nice for

:09:05. > :09:08.him and raised some money, we will do raffles, anything we can to

:09:08. > :09:13.raise money. Prayers have been said at local

:09:13. > :09:18.church services for the victims. We had 30 teachers and staff

:09:18. > :09:24.members who came together for special prayers and consolation. It

:09:24. > :09:30.was a very difficult service. Everybody feels something like this.

:09:30. > :09:34.For the children involved, it really is a sad thing. Members of

:09:34. > :09:37.the church here were very concerned. A 45-year-old man and a 42-year-old

:09:37. > :09:45.woman who lived in the ground floor flat below Lee-Anna Shiers and Liam

:09:45. > :09:48.Timbrell have been arrested on suspicion of murder. Relatives have

:09:48. > :09:52.released a statement thanking all those who have sent cards and

:09:52. > :09:57.messages of condolence and Friday, and thank members of the public who

:09:57. > :10:00.attempted to rescue the family. They have also given their

:10:00. > :10:05.gratitude to members of the emergency services and medical

:10:05. > :10:07.teams who did will they could during this tragic incident. -- all

:10:07. > :10:10.they could. The author of an independent report

:10:10. > :10:12.which recommended the merger of three of South East Wales's

:10:12. > :10:14.universities has denied threatening budget cuts against Cardiff

:10:14. > :10:17.Metropolitan University unless it agrees to merge. The Chair of

:10:17. > :10:19.Governors at Cardiff Met, Barbara Wilding, claimed that Professor Sir

:10:19. > :10:23.Steve Smith had threatened "a thousand cuts" against the

:10:23. > :10:28.institution. But he denies the claim in a letter to the Education

:10:28. > :10:32.Minister. One in four of us will suffer some

:10:32. > :10:35.form of mental illness - more money is spent on it than any other part

:10:35. > :10:38.of the health service. Today, the Welsh Government launched its 10-

:10:38. > :10:42.year plan to make sure that everybody with a condition can live

:10:42. > :10:45.as full a life as possible. Some of the priorities are that people, no

:10:45. > :10:48.matter what age, get a continuous level of support. Negative

:10:48. > :10:51.attitudes of some employers to mental illnesses should be tackled,

:10:51. > :10:52.and patients and their families should have more say about the care

:10:52. > :11:02.they receive. Our health correspondent, Owain Clarke,

:11:02. > :11:04.

:11:04. > :11:07.reports. Here in Port Talbot, they are

:11:07. > :11:11.preparing for Christmas, sanding down wooden reindeer to sell in

:11:11. > :11:17.local shops. But this isn't a business, it is a support centre

:11:17. > :11:21.run by a mental health charity. It is somewhere to go rather than

:11:21. > :11:25.stay in a house. When you are not well it is better to go outside,

:11:26. > :11:29.and I come here to socialise. This place also gives advice on the

:11:29. > :11:32.type of care available, and one of the big priorities of the new

:11:32. > :11:38.strategy will be to give people with mental illnesses more power to

:11:38. > :11:42.decide what type of treatment is right for them. It was in this room

:11:42. > :11:47.about this time last year that I received some cognitive behavioural

:11:47. > :11:51.therapy. That choice was crucial in putting Mark Smith from Talbot

:11:51. > :11:58.Green on the road to recovery after severe depression and anxiety.

:11:58. > :12:02.It has been a combination of trying different types of medication and

:12:02. > :12:07.talking therapies, such as the cognitive behaviour therapy I

:12:07. > :12:11.received in this room. But you can't get that support without

:12:11. > :12:14.tackling the problem head-on and talking about it in the first place.

:12:14. > :12:20.And those choices could make a big difference.

:12:20. > :12:25.If the policy is put into practice, people would see quite a big change.

:12:25. > :12:28.What they would see it is that the one in 30 people who gets us as --

:12:28. > :12:32.serious mental illness needing significant care, instead of them

:12:32. > :12:36.remaining unproductive and often lonely with damaged lives, those

:12:36. > :12:41.people would get better, get into education and get back to work and

:12:41. > :12:45.enjoy a social life, being, as they fully deserved, for members of

:12:45. > :12:50.society. That is the objective. But others are struggling. Even

:12:50. > :12:56.though the sun is shining, she won't go out. I met this 37

:12:56. > :12:59.agemacro look has that anorexia and bulimia since her teens two 37-

:12:59. > :13:04.year-old. She says she needs specialist treatment which is not

:13:04. > :13:07.available. She says another thing is stopping her recovery, and it is

:13:07. > :13:12.the reason she doesn't want to show herself on camera. Stigma.

:13:12. > :13:17.I have had one woman tell me, you make me feel sick looking at you,

:13:17. > :13:21.that was when I was extremely anorexics. Another woman said to me,

:13:21. > :13:27.do you know what, if you swallowed a pickled onion whole, people would

:13:28. > :13:31.think you were pregnant. You think yourself, I can't get left alone no

:13:31. > :13:35.matter what I am. According to the health minister,

:13:35. > :13:38.getting to grips with prejudice is critical.

:13:38. > :13:42.Service users have had a great input into the consultation we had

:13:42. > :13:47.over the summer and I am grateful to them. When you hear their

:13:47. > :13:50.stories about how they have had 100 job applications and not one

:13:51. > :13:54.interview because they feel they have to put that they have a mental

:13:54. > :13:58.health problem on their application, you realise it is very much alive

:13:58. > :14:03.and kicking in Wales and we must do more to overcome that.

:14:03. > :14:08.Back in Port Talbot, the reindeer are shaping up nicely. The Welsh

:14:08. > :14:14.Government hopes that its new strategy will not only reshape

:14:14. > :14:16.services but also changed attitudes. You are watching Wales Today.

:14:16. > :14:18.Much more to come before 7:00pm, including:

:14:18. > :14:22.Why pensioners like Heti Davies might enjoy different benefits

:14:22. > :14:25.under Labour in Scotland and Wales. And the new face in the Wales squad

:14:25. > :14:34.- Ospreys prop, Aaron Jarvis, is called up by Rob Howley for the

:14:34. > :14:36.An inquest has heard how a football goal which toppled over and killed

:14:36. > :14:41.a 12-year-old boy hadn't been designed in accordance with any

:14:41. > :14:44.guidelines or standards. Casey Breeze died after being struck by

:14:44. > :14:54.the goalposts on his local playing field in Caersws last July. Cemlyn

:14:54. > :14:55.

:14:55. > :14:59.Davies reports. Casey Breeze's family arrived at

:14:59. > :15:04.this morning's inquest to piece together the final moments of their

:15:04. > :15:08.son's life. The 12-year-old died after being struck by a set of

:15:08. > :15:12.goalposts whilst playing football with friends on his local

:15:12. > :15:15.recreation ground in Caersws. His mother wept as the court heard and

:15:15. > :15:20.number of statements taken from children who were playing with him

:15:20. > :15:24.at the time. Many of them described how he was playing in goal, and

:15:24. > :15:29.after diving to make a save, he got his foot caught in the neck which

:15:29. > :15:33.hadn't been paid back. As he tried to free himself, the goal frame

:15:34. > :15:39.toppled over and landed on his back. One of the friends said he was

:15:39. > :15:42.crying out at first, but then he went quiet. In this -- in their

:15:42. > :15:47.statements, some children also claimed the posts fell the previous

:15:47. > :15:50.week, but no one was hurt on that occasion. And one of the first

:15:50. > :15:54.police officers at the scene said there was nothing to hold the goal

:15:54. > :15:59.frame in place. The jury later heard that the goalposts had not

:15:59. > :16:03.been designed in accordance with any guidelines or standards. In the

:16:03. > :16:07.days after Casey Breeze's death, scarves and shirts were left on the

:16:07. > :16:11.pitch as a tribute to him. What happened he didn't just shock the

:16:11. > :16:15.people of Caersws, it also had an impact on the wider football

:16:15. > :16:20.community and prompted the Football Association of Wales to issue new

:16:20. > :16:24.guidelines relating to the use of goal posts, including one rule that

:16:24. > :16:29.states that goalposts of any size, including portable ones, must

:16:29. > :16:34.always be securely anchored to the ground when they are being used. It

:16:34. > :16:38.seems lessons are being learned from what happened in Caersws last

:16:38. > :16:41.summer, but exactly how and why Casey Breeze died it is still

:16:41. > :16:44.becoming clear. The inquest into his death is due to conclude

:16:44. > :16:46.tomorrow. Free parking should be on offer to

:16:46. > :16:49.encourage shoppers into Wales's town centres. That's according to

:16:49. > :16:51.the Conservatives, who were visiting Barry High Street today.

:16:51. > :16:54.The Welsh Government admits the recession and the changing role of

:16:54. > :16:57.town centres is a "major challenge" for regeneration policies. Now the

:16:57. > :17:05.Tories want councils to publish annual reports showing how much

:17:05. > :17:11.they make from parking charges. They have not provided costings for

:17:11. > :17:15.the proposals. Parking is an issue. Bringing

:17:15. > :17:19.vehicles into town is an issue, so we have to bear in mind that

:17:19. > :17:23.elderly people have to come into town centres, and we have to look

:17:23. > :17:26.at cycling routes as well, park and ride is also an aspect we are

:17:26. > :17:28.looking at. A former Welsh Government finance

:17:28. > :17:31.minister is standing down as Labour's representative on an

:17:31. > :17:34.inquiry into the future of devolution. Sue Essex is leaving

:17:34. > :17:37.the Silk Commission as it prepares to publish a report on whether tax-

:17:37. > :17:40.varying powers should be devolved to Wales.

:17:40. > :17:43.Free bus passes and free prescriptions - just some of the

:17:43. > :17:46.benefits that have come to Wales and Scotland since devolution. Not

:17:46. > :17:50.everyone thinks it's money well spent, and now with budgets tighter

:17:50. > :17:53.than ever, can we still afford them? The Labour Party here and

:17:53. > :18:03.north of the border are taking a very different attitude towards the

:18:03. > :18:04.

:18:04. > :18:09.issue, as Brian Meechan reports. Dr Heti Davies was born and bred in

:18:09. > :18:12.Wales, but for the last 50 years, she has called Edinburgh home.

:18:12. > :18:16.Older residents in Scotland enjoy access to benefits including free

:18:16. > :18:23.prescriptions, bus passes and free personal care.

:18:23. > :18:28.In some cases I think they are life-saving, and what people don't

:18:28. > :18:34.realise is the emotional aspect of its and the feeling of well-being

:18:34. > :18:37.and the independence you get, older people especially.

:18:37. > :18:41.The Scottish Labour leader has raised the prospect of scrapping

:18:41. > :18:45.some universal benefits if elected as the Scottish First Minister.

:18:45. > :18:51.There are debates which will take place across the UK, not just in

:18:51. > :18:56.Scotland and Wales, about the appropriate level of public

:18:56. > :19:01.provision in this era of austerity. But I do think it is a difficult

:19:01. > :19:04.message to sell in particular in Scotland and Wales, that have

:19:04. > :19:08.traditionally savoured a more social democratic approach.

:19:08. > :19:12.This is the capital city of a country which has become accustomed

:19:12. > :19:15.to universal benefits. Scottish Labour is banking on being able to

:19:15. > :19:20.convince the public that that is a luxury Scotland can no longer

:19:20. > :19:24.afford. But that could be a gift to the SNP and cause a headache for

:19:24. > :19:27.Welsh Labour. In government, Welsh Labour's at -- was Labour has

:20:01. > :20:05.morally wrong to defend free prescriptions on a basis. Free

:20:20. > :20:23.risks to taking away benefits people have grown used to.

:20:23. > :20:26.Wales rugby coach, Rob Howley, says the fortunes of the international

:20:26. > :20:29.side will not be affected by the regions' poor form in Europe. All

:20:29. > :20:32.four teams lost this weekend, and now face a uphill task to qualify.

:20:32. > :20:38.There's a return to the Wales squad for Ospreys fly-half, Dan Biggar,

:20:38. > :20:45.and for uncapped prop, Aaron Jarvis. Here is Ashleigh Crowter.

:20:45. > :20:50.It was a winless Welsh weekend. The pattern was set on Sasa -- on

:20:50. > :20:54.Friday as the Scarlets lost to Leinster. Then the dragon's were

:20:55. > :20:58.beaten at home by a French side, Bayonne. On Sunday, the Blues

:20:58. > :21:03.started well with a try from Leigh Halfpenny, but Toulon had the

:21:03. > :21:08.answers to close a victory at the Arms Park. Finally, the ospreys

:21:08. > :21:13.drew with Leicester at 70 minutes and then conceded three tries to

:21:13. > :21:16.hand Leicester a winning bonus point. Collectively, that is one

:21:16. > :21:20.win from eight matches. It is no secret that the success of the

:21:20. > :21:25.national team is a key pillar of the Welsh Rugby Union's business

:21:25. > :21:28.strategy. They believe Wales can still be a winning side even if the

:21:28. > :21:34.regions are struggling. On the back of 2012, winning the

:21:34. > :21:41.Grand Slam, yes we lost in Australia, but the national jersey

:21:41. > :21:48.is important are the players and their care -- and sure they can

:22:09. > :22:12.Delegates were told that the idea of central contracts could still be

:22:12. > :22:17.resurrected after initial proposal was pushed back by the regions.

:22:17. > :22:21.I think this is something we have to return to because the model does

:22:21. > :22:24.work well in the Nations, it works well in Ireland, the New Zealand

:22:24. > :22:28.model works well, and I think we can achieve something unique for

:22:28. > :22:32.ourselves. Players' minds may be more on

:22:32. > :22:38.cryotherapy than central contracts. Wales fly out to them out arrears

:22:42. > :22:45.to winning ways with victory over former manager, Roberto Martinez's

:22:45. > :22:48.Wigan side. The 2-1 result was the Swans' first win in six league

:22:48. > :22:52.games, taking them back up to 10th. In the Championship, Cardiff City,

:22:52. > :22:54.in blue, lost top spot with a 3-1 defeat at Nottingham Forest.

:22:54. > :22:59.They're at home tomorrow night against Watford. Craig Bellamy is

:22:59. > :23:02.expected back from injury. Newport County will face Cheltenham in the

:23:02. > :23:05.first round of the FA Cup should they win their replay against Yate

:23:05. > :23:10.Town tomorrow. Wrexham's win over Southport means they'll face fellow

:23:10. > :23:13.Conference side, Alfreton Town. Whether you're Olympic Champion or

:23:13. > :23:16.the best in bowls at a local club, there's often someone giving up

:23:16. > :23:19.their own time to help people develop a love for sport. We're

:23:19. > :23:21.looking for nominations, for this year's BBC Wales Sports Personality

:23:21. > :23:31.Unsung Hero Award. This year's Ambassador is Olympic champion,

:23:42. > :23:46.in this Olympic champion, the 19- year-old winning gold in dramatic

:23:46. > :23:50.fashion this summer as she threw her helmet in the air. There were

:23:50. > :23:53.celebrations back home in Flint as well. Her grandad, Martin, has

:23:53. > :23:58.believed in her censure was a little girl, and Jake says without

:24:02. > :24:06.me hours to the best training sessions, take the all over the

:24:06. > :24:10.country for competitions, then when I changed to Olympic style, he

:24:10. > :24:14.drove me four times a week to Manchester, once a week to Cardiff,

:24:14. > :24:19.and I could see in his face he was so tired from his work.

:24:19. > :24:23.What does he say to in -- to you now Euro Olympic champion. He says

:24:23. > :24:27.he is the proud has grander than the world and I thank him for have

:24:27. > :24:31.you got me there. So Jade will be always -- will

:24:31. > :24:35.always be grateful to her unsung hero. Do you know someone who goes

:24:35. > :24:39.that extra mile to help others take part in sport? We are looking for

:25:14. > :25:16.though, we enjoyed some lovely weather. Lots of sunshine in

:25:16. > :25:21.Snowdonia yesterday. This picture is by Ray Davies in the Ogwen

:25:21. > :25:24.Valley. Aberporth was the sunniest place in the UK yesterday, and

:25:24. > :25:28.Eglwyswen in Pembrokeshire the warmest, but of course it was all

:25:28. > :25:32.change today with a blanket of cloud. This picture was taken in

:25:32. > :25:35.Newgale by Tracy Hughes. Tonight, the cloud stays with us, thick

:25:35. > :25:39.enough in places for a little rain or drizzle, but not a cold night,

:25:39. > :25:45.the lowest temperatures 8 to 13 Celsius, but mist and fog will be a

:25:45. > :25:48.problem. In fact, there is a Met Office warning in force for fog for

:25:48. > :25:53.tonight and tomorrow morning. So here's the picture for breakfast

:25:53. > :25:56.time. Grey in the west with low cloud and mist. The worst of the

:26:06. > :26:10.higher ground, so take extra care if you're travelling. During the

:26:10. > :26:13.day, the fog will slowly lift into low cloud with hill fog in the

:26:13. > :26:17.afternoon, and like today, a bit damp in places with light rain and

:26:17. > :26:20.drizzle. Cloudy for most, but it may brighten up in parts of the

:26:20. > :26:23.west. A little sunshine on the Cardigan Bay coast and the Lleyn

:26:23. > :26:30.Peninsula. Top temperatures around 16 Celsius with a light north-

:26:30. > :26:33.easterly breeze. In Flintshire tomorrow, another grey day. Misty

:26:33. > :26:37.with fog lifting onto the Clwydian hills and Halkyn Mountain.

:26:37. > :26:43.Temperatures in Buckley 13 Celsius, with hardly a breath of wind.

:26:43. > :26:47.Tomorrow night generally cloudy, with more mist and hill fog forming.

:26:47. > :26:51.A little light rain or drizzle in places too. Wednesday and Thursday

:26:51. > :26:54.not much change - mostly cloudy and grey. Mist, hill fog and a few

:26:54. > :26:58.spots of drizzle. The best chance of sunshine in the south-west. But

:26:58. > :27:01.on Friday it's all change - Arctic winds will bring a big drop in

:27:01. > :27:03.temperature. So a cold and breezy end to the week, but at least it

:27:03. > :27:04.end to the week, but at least it will become much brighter with

:27:04. > :27:07.sunshine and frost. The headlines:

:27:09. > :27:12.into Jimmy Savile, has stepped aside. Peter Rippon will be off
