Children in care being moved all over the country. One girl's story | :00:40. | :00:43. | |
of a broken system failing vulnerable people. I met some people | :00:44. | :00:53. | |
in a car park. These people were taking me to Manchester. I refuse | :00:54. | :00:56. | |
that first but then they told me if I did not go with these people, the | :00:57. | :01:01. | |
police would take me in handcuffs to Manchester instead. They were some | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
of the defining images of the decade. The man who photographed the | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
miners' strike goes back to meet his subjects 30 years on. | :01:09. | :01:16. | |
Good evening and in tonight's sport: 13 defeats in a row now against | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
South Africa. But Wales still believe they took a step forward. | :01:20. | :01:24. | |
Good evening. An inquest into the death of a | :01:25. | :01:27. | |
seven-year-old boy after heart surgery in Bristol has heard his | :01:28. | :01:30. | |
father's claims he repeatedly pleaded with staff to take his son's | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
condition more seriously. Luke Jenkins from Cardiff died after | :01:35. | :01:36. | |
being discharged early from intensive care onto a cardiac ward | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
at Bristol Children's Hospital. A hospital review at the time said | :01:41. | :01:43. | |
there were not enough nurses on ward 32, and a failure to recognise his | :01:44. | :01:51. | |
deteriorating condition. Luke Jenkins from Cardiff was born | :01:52. | :01:55. | |
with only half of his heart working properly but despite his difficult | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
start to life, he wanted to be a doctor, to help people like him. His | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
cardiologist said he was deeply affected by the seven-year-old | :02:05. | :02:14. | |
willpower and determination. The surgery went well but the following | :02:15. | :02:17. | |
day, his parents notice something was wrong and asked doctors to move | :02:18. | :02:24. | |
him back to intensive care. He started deteriorating and we were | :02:25. | :02:30. | |
raising concerns. He could not even get out of bed. He was completely | :02:31. | :02:36. | |
drained. With as raising concerns, they were not listening. Luke later | :02:37. | :02:42. | |
died at the developing brain injuries, losing nearly two litres | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
of blood. His parents had to make the agonising decision to turn off | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
his life-support. A report by the health board later found there was a | :02:51. | :02:52. | |
failure to listen to concerns. The health board says these problems | :02:53. | :03:04. | |
have now been addressed and have since published a second report. It | :03:05. | :03:11. | |
has been extreme difficulty. They had been waiting for this inquest to | :03:12. | :03:14. | |
get to the bottom of what has happened to their son. His parents | :03:15. | :03:21. | |
are still waiting for answers as the inquest into his death started | :03:22. | :03:24. | |
today. His father was too unwell to be there. Luke 's father described | :03:25. | :03:32. | |
readily having to ask for painkillers for his son. When he | :03:33. | :03:35. | |
questioned how much blood was being drained from Luke 's chest after his | :03:36. | :03:46. | |
operation, he was told not to worry. The inquest into his death is due to | :03:47. | :03:52. | |
last another two weeks. 95 years ago the guns fell silent | :03:53. | :03:56. | |
bringing to an end the slaughter of the Great War. Around Wales today | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
thousands paused for the Armistice Day two minute silence, remembering | :04:02. | :04:04. | |
all those who've died in conflict then and since. The Royal Mint at | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
Llantrisant has struck a special commemorative Remembrance coin. | :04:09. | :04:16. | |
Roger Pinney reports. There were no marching bands or big | :04:17. | :04:21. | |
raids today, simply groups of people gathering. In cities, towns and | :04:22. | :04:29. | |
villages, shops, offices, schools. BUGLE PLAYS. | :04:30. | :04:36. | |
In Wrexham town centre, the last post was sounded and then an air | :04:37. | :04:38. | |
raids Ireland. -- side run. And around Wales, people united in | :04:39. | :04:46. | |
the simple dignity of silence. They shall not grow old. Age shall | :04:47. | :05:14. | |
not weary them, nor the years condemn. We well remember them. It | :05:15. | :05:24. | |
was at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918 that the | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
armistice was declared. The guns fell silent after four years of | :05:30. | :05:36. | |
slaughter. Inevitably at war memorials like | :05:37. | :05:41. | |
this one, there is a focus on the first and Second World War is. I | :05:42. | :05:44. | |
spoke to one elderly lady earlier whose brother was killed in 1943 but | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
here there is a reminder of sacrifice in more recent conflicts. | :05:50. | :05:56. | |
Llywelyn Evans, died in Iraq in 2003. It is an important day for | :05:57. | :06:04. | |
everybody. It is an important day to remember everybody who has given | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
everything for the country. Just a mark of respect for those who are | :06:08. | :06:13. | |
still fighting in a war. They sacrificed an awful lot for us. At | :06:14. | :06:20. | |
the Royal Mint in Llantrisant near Cardiff, the Secretary of State for | :06:21. | :06:23. | |
Wales struck a new ?5 per member did coin. -- commemorative coin. Next | :06:24. | :06:31. | |
year, we have the anniversary of the outbreak of the start of the First | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
World War. It is important day that we come | :06:36. | :06:39. | |
here and actually see this kind being produced which will have such | :06:40. | :06:41. | |
a great deal of importance for so many people. The tradition of a | :06:42. | :06:47. | |
two-minute silence emerged out of a conflict so terrible they said it | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
would be the war to end all wars. But service men and women continue | :06:53. | :06:55. | |
to lose their lives to this day. Their sacrifice is not forgotten. | :06:56. | :07:00. | |
A man who went on the run after posting abusive remarks online about | :07:01. | :07:03. | |
murdered schoolgirl April Jones has appeared in court. Gordon Mullen | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
made the comments on the social networking site Facebook after April | :07:08. | :07:09. | |
went missing in Machynlleth in October last year. Mullen admitted | :07:10. | :07:14. | |
breaching the Communications Act. He was bailed and will be sentenced | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
next month. Some people are gambling with their | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
lives by not having the flu jab, even though they can get it for | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
free. That's according to doctors at the Abertawe Bro Morgannwg | :07:27. | :07:28. | |
University Health Board. They're encouraging patients in high risk | :07:29. | :07:31. | |
groups, including pregnant women and older people, to have the vaccine. | :07:32. | :07:39. | |
Wales' most vulnerable children are at risk of being targeted by | :07:40. | :07:42. | |
paedophiles because councils are not informing the appropriate people | :07:43. | :07:45. | |
when they move them from one area to another. That's according to a | :07:46. | :07:48. | |
leading children's charity. Tros Gynnal Plant says some children in | :07:49. | :07:52. | |
care can be invisible to social services, schools and health | :07:53. | :08:03. | |
workers. India Pollock reports. 20-year-old Lucy was taken into care | :08:04. | :08:08. | |
when she was 13 and moved more than ten times in the five years she was | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
in the system. While she was in care, she took drugs, slept in parks | :08:13. | :08:16. | |
and on one occasion, drank so much she was hospitalised. I felt like I | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
was being rescued but then I realised that it is exactly the same | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
as being at home. I thought that me being taken away from my mother | :08:26. | :08:29. | |
would give me a better life but it actually made it worse. On one | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
occasion, Lucy thought she would be moving to another home but actually | :08:35. | :08:37. | |
she was taken to a car park and told she would be moving to Manchester. | :08:38. | :08:43. | |
I refused at first but then they told me, if I did not go with these | :08:44. | :08:46. | |
people, the police would take me in handcuffs to Manchester. I had no | :08:47. | :08:51. | |
choice. They took me to a residential home and they spoke to | :08:52. | :08:57. | |
the workers there. And after about ten minutes, they just left me | :08:58. | :09:02. | |
there. I just had the clothes on my back and the contents of my handbag. | :09:03. | :09:08. | |
They had ?11 for me to buy some clothes. She was 14 at the time. She | :09:09. | :09:15. | |
says she was not visited once by a social worker during the time she | :09:16. | :09:19. | |
was living there. She says her life was turned upside down in the car | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
park that day. The care Lucy received here was not up to scratch | :09:24. | :09:26. | |
and she's not alone. There are around 6000 children in | :09:27. | :09:35. | |
care in Wales. Plans should be put in place to make sure the child is | :09:36. | :09:38. | |
looked after properly. However, councils often flout guidance and | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
there are fears that children are becoming lost in the system. There | :09:44. | :09:48. | |
is a lot of evidence to suggest they are very vulnerable and at risk. A | :09:49. | :09:52. | |
lot of the time, they are placed in private residential homes, again we | :09:53. | :09:58. | |
know that often these establishments are targeted by paedophiles and | :09:59. | :10:03. | |
again, people just want to be accepted. I think they can be very | :10:04. | :10:10. | |
vulnerable. The Association of directors of social services Cymru | :10:11. | :10:13. | |
denies that these children are neglected or lost in the system | :10:14. | :10:17. | |
editors say that there are inconsistencies when it comes to | :10:18. | :10:20. | |
note local authorities -- but it does say. The Welsh local government | :10:21. | :10:23. | |
Association says that reducing unnecessary out of area at | :10:24. | :10:28. | |
placements continues to be a priority. | :10:29. | :10:32. | |
A disproportionate number of children were targeted by paedophile | :10:33. | :10:38. | |
gangs recently. One of the five victims of the grooming wreck -- | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
networking Rochdale had been placed in a home by the local authority. | :10:44. | :10:50. | |
But for Lucy, life has improved. She wants to make sure what happened to | :10:51. | :10:53. | |
her does not happen to another child. Children are lost in the | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
system and they are neglected. I am one of the better off ones. Some of | :10:58. | :11:03. | |
my friends from care are in really bad positions, as we speak. They | :11:04. | :11:07. | |
don't get any help. Helen Mary Jones is the Chief Executive of Youth | :11:08. | :11:10. | |
Cymru, and a former chair of the Children's Committee in the | :11:11. | :11:13. | |
Assembly. This is quite worrying isn't it, so what should be done | :11:14. | :11:16. | |
immediately now to reduce the risk for these children in care? | :11:17. | :11:19. | |
Immediately, I think all county councils in Wales need to review | :11:20. | :11:22. | |
practices. It simply is not good enough to say there are | :11:23. | :11:25. | |
inconsistencies. There is Cleo national guidance. There is a need | :11:26. | :11:35. | |
for a joint plan. It is not a difficult thing to do. Then we need | :11:36. | :11:38. | |
to look further down the line at some of the capacity issues and some | :11:39. | :11:43. | |
of the things we need to do to make sure that children do not have to be | :11:44. | :11:47. | |
moved. It is a J compact problem. There are not enough carers, there | :11:48. | :11:54. | |
are not enough social workers and local authorities do not follow the | :11:55. | :12:00. | |
rules. There are complexities, we know that we need to recruit more | :12:01. | :12:04. | |
foster carers, Welsh speaking foster carers, we know that we need more of | :12:05. | :12:11. | |
them. The Welsh Government is taking wolves to create a single national | :12:12. | :12:14. | |
fostering and adoption service for Wales. That will help because we | :12:15. | :12:20. | |
will be able to identify the right basements for people. -- placements. | :12:21. | :12:28. | |
In the end, this is a question of priorities. Local authorities have | :12:29. | :12:31. | |
known for years what they need to do about this. These children are | :12:32. | :12:34. | |
really vulnerable or they would not be in the system in the first place. | :12:35. | :12:39. | |
It is not good enough for them to say things are inconsistent. There | :12:40. | :12:43. | |
is a strong national guidance. Local authorities need to share | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
information. And they need to be much more proactive. Inconsistencies | :12:48. | :12:58. | |
are not good enough. Much more to come before 7pm. | :12:59. | :13:02. | |
Despite losing again to South Africa. Captain Sam Warburton says | :13:03. | :13:05. | |
he's confident they'll win against Argentina on Saturday. | :13:06. | :13:09. | |
And the man who photographed the miners' strike goes back to meet his | :13:10. | :13:17. | |
subjects 30 years on. Public safety could be under threat | :13:18. | :13:21. | |
in some parts of the country because of spending cuts. That's the warning | :13:22. | :13:25. | |
tonight from the Fire Brigades Union in Wales. Mid and West Wales Fire | :13:26. | :13:30. | |
Service plans to save ?4.1 million over the next two years. The Union | :13:31. | :13:34. | |
has told BBC Wales that some fire stations could be closed. But fire | :13:35. | :13:39. | |
service managers say no decisions have been made. Our reporter Cemlyn | :13:40. | :13:43. | |
Davies is at a fire station in Port Talbot for us tonight. | :13:44. | :13:55. | |
Yes, this is one of the fire stations the union says could be | :13:56. | :13:59. | |
downgraded from a 24-hour station to one that is only open during the | :14:00. | :14:03. | |
day. The aim of course would be to save cash. I am joined by Barry | :14:04. | :14:14. | |
Davies. What is your concern? Should the ?4.1 million worth of | :14:15. | :14:17. | |
cuts be passed on to the service in the next two years, we will be | :14:18. | :14:21. | |
seeing a number of part-time stations closing and a number of | :14:22. | :14:25. | |
full age -- full-time stations being downgraded. | :14:26. | :14:31. | |
And what would the impact will that be # basically, if you close a fire | :14:32. | :14:38. | |
station or downgrade a fire station, you will be increasing the | :14:39. | :14:41. | |
response time, which will mean it will take longer for I fire station | :14:42. | :14:51. | |
to get -- we are in a time of cuts. The fire service has to make cuts. | :14:52. | :14:55. | |
Tough decisions need to be taken. Yes, they do need to be taken and I | :14:56. | :14:58. | |
understand we are in times of austerities. My answer to that would | :14:59. | :15:07. | |
be, would you rather pro is a library or pro a fire station? -- | :15:08. | :15:13. | |
would you rather close a library or close a fire station. | :15:14. | :15:19. | |
HSBC is closing three of its branches in North Wales next | :15:20. | :15:32. | |
February. As companies still struggle to access credit from | :15:33. | :15:35. | |
banks, firms in Wales are being encouraged to lend money directly to | :15:36. | :15:39. | |
each other. One of the UK's biggest so-called peer to peer lending | :15:40. | :15:41. | |
companies, says the Welsh Government and councils could use the service | :15:42. | :15:45. | |
to invest in small businesses. It follows a ?23 million scheme by the | :15:46. | :15:48. | |
UK Government to bypass banks and get money directly to firms. Here's | :15:49. | :15:51. | |
our business correspondent, Brian Meechan. | :15:52. | :15:52. | |
As the financial crisis deepened, ranks became less willing to lend to | :15:53. | :15:56. | |
what they decided were riskier businesses. That led to some to | :15:57. | :16:00. | |
search for innovative ways to find credit. This man turned to | :16:01. | :16:10. | |
peer-to-peer lending and borrowed ?30,000 from a large number of small | :16:11. | :16:16. | |
investors. You notice the main difference when you start asking for | :16:17. | :16:19. | |
the money because this many years lent to you from a huge spectrum of | :16:20. | :16:26. | |
private investors. And that enables the interest rate to be more | :16:27. | :16:29. | |
flexible and crucially it means that we did not need to offer security to | :16:30. | :16:39. | |
receive the funding. The company doubled its employees and put more | :16:40. | :16:40. | |
fans on the road. What the government is doing is it | :16:41. | :16:52. | |
is actually helping business owners who need it when they needed and | :16:53. | :16:58. | |
that is fantastic. I think there are lots of options for local councils | :16:59. | :17:02. | |
and the Welsh Government to get involved as well. Peer-to-peer | :17:03. | :17:05. | |
lending will never be able to replace the set -- sale of the | :17:06. | :17:10. | |
funding previously available from banks. But research suggests it will | :17:11. | :17:15. | |
become ?1 billion industry in the future. Critics warn it is not | :17:16. | :17:20. | |
regulated and therefore is a riskier investment but moves are already | :17:21. | :17:22. | |
underway to change that as it becomes an increasing part of the | :17:23. | :17:25. | |
credit market. I'm afraid we're still waiting for | :17:26. | :17:28. | |
Wales to claim that Southern Hemisphere scalp. Ashleigh's here | :17:29. | :17:32. | |
with tonight's sport. That's 13 defeats in a row now | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
against South Africa. But Wales still believe they took a step | :17:38. | :17:40. | |
forward despite losing again to one of rugby's South Hemisphere | :17:41. | :17:43. | |
superpowers. Captain Sam Warburton says he's confident they'll win the | :17:44. | :17:46. | |
next three matches this autumn, starting against Argentina on | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
Saturday. But the task has been made that little bit harder, after key | :17:50. | :17:53. | |
players were crocked during a brutal Test match. | :17:54. | :18:03. | |
It feels a bit like Groundhog Day. Wales play well, matching the | :18:04. | :18:07. | |
Springboks in every area, except the one that really matters. The | :18:08. | :18:11. | |
scoreboard. South Africa were ruthless when they sniffed a chance, | :18:12. | :18:15. | |
scoring three tries, even if one did look a little bit offside. Wales | :18:16. | :18:19. | |
believe their level of performance would have beaten most teams in the | :18:20. | :18:23. | |
world was against the big three, they are still not seizing the | :18:24. | :18:28. | |
moment. Years ago, we could not have held on in that game. We would have | :18:29. | :18:33. | |
rolled over and lost by 20 points. They are the most physical team on | :18:34. | :18:38. | |
the planet. I thought it was a sterling effort from the lads. We | :18:39. | :18:45. | |
will continue in that vein. Good times will be ahead. Another story | :18:46. | :18:49. | |
repeating itself is Wales is mounting injury list. Jonathan | :18:50. | :18:56. | |
Davies look at his sharpest in the year exchanges but now will play no | :18:57. | :19:01. | |
further part after tearing a muscle in his chest. Liam Williams, Adam | :19:02. | :19:06. | |
Jones and Scott Andrews are still being assessed by medics. Wales have | :19:07. | :19:10. | |
called in extra players to make sure numbers are not too depleted. It | :19:11. | :19:16. | |
means Warren Gatland will make changes for next weekend 's game | :19:17. | :19:21. | |
against Argentina. James Hogg could be in line to start his first test | :19:22. | :19:24. | |
for more than two years. Argentina should be less -- lesser opponents. | :19:25. | :19:31. | |
They will come to be put away by England at Twickenham. But the pumas | :19:32. | :19:37. | |
do have a good record in Cardiff. But if Wales can play like they did | :19:38. | :19:40. | |
against the Springboks, they will be confident of victory. I still feel | :19:41. | :19:45. | |
like we are closing the gap and I think we are on par with them. I | :19:46. | :19:52. | |
think we matched them. I think competing with any southern | :19:53. | :19:54. | |
hemisphere side, we will be confident we can get a result. The | :19:55. | :19:59. | |
Millennium Stadium pitch was badly cut up during the match, drawing | :20:00. | :20:05. | |
criticism from Warren Gatland. It is a long-standing problem and the | :20:06. | :20:08. | |
Welsh Rugby Union are now considering whether to replace it | :20:09. | :20:11. | |
with an artificial surface. A final decision is likely to come before | :20:12. | :20:15. | |
Christmas. Swansea City manager Michael Laudrup says referees should | :20:16. | :20:17. | |
apologise publicly for their mistakes. He was speaking after | :20:18. | :20:21. | |
official Robert Madley gave a late penalty for hand-ball against Wayne | :20:22. | :20:24. | |
Routledge in yesterday's 3-3l Premier League draw against Stoke. | :20:25. | :20:27. | |
Laudrup described it as a poor decision, which allowed Stoke to | :20:28. | :20:30. | |
equalise after the Swans had fought back from two goals down to take the | :20:31. | :20:39. | |
lead. I can admit I made a mistake in this | :20:40. | :20:43. | |
or that, the referee never. It is like they do not exist. They are not | :20:44. | :20:48. | |
allowed to speak. I have to be careful what I say. Otherwise I get | :20:49. | :20:55. | |
a fine. And I don't want that. That I will always defend them because | :20:56. | :20:59. | |
they are humans like rest of us. They make mistakes, but at least | :21:00. | :21:02. | |
admit you make a mistake. Golfer Jamie Donaldson is almost half a | :21:03. | :21:05. | |
million pounds richer tonight, after enjoying the biggest pay day of his | :21:06. | :21:09. | |
career. He finished second at the Turkish Open after a stunning final | :21:10. | :21:11. | |
round which included this hole-in-one at the 16th. He ended | :21:12. | :21:15. | |
the tournament 22 under par, two shots behind the winner, France's | :21:16. | :21:18. | |
Victor Dubuisson. Wales rugby league coach Iestyn | :21:19. | :21:20. | |
Harris says he's still optimistic about the national team's future, | :21:21. | :21:23. | |
despite losing all three of their matches in the World Cup. They went | :21:24. | :21:27. | |
down 28-24 to the Cook Islands in Neath, having already lost to Italy | :21:28. | :21:31. | |
and the USA. Harris insists the current crop of players will be more | :21:32. | :21:35. | |
competitive at the next World Cup in four years' time. | :21:36. | :21:40. | |
Athletes who'll be representing Wales in next year's Commonwealth | :21:41. | :21:43. | |
Games are visiting Cardiff this week to be measured up for their new kit. | :21:44. | :21:47. | |
Swimmer Jazz Carlin was selected for Team Wales last week. Glasgow 2014 | :21:48. | :21:52. | |
will be her third Commonwealth Games. But for some athletes, like | :21:53. | :21:57. | |
Paralympic discus champion Aled Sion Davies, it's a brand new experience. | :21:58. | :22:05. | |
It is an emotional time for me. I have only ever competed for Great | :22:06. | :22:09. | |
Britain. To get this opportunity to compete for Wales, I am very | :22:10. | :22:14. | |
excited. It is a different thing when you represent Wales. The team | :22:15. | :22:18. | |
might not be as big as some of the others but we definitely have great | :22:19. | :22:23. | |
team spirit. It is really great. I cannot wait. | :22:24. | :22:30. | |
Only 254 days to go. Award winning photographer Roger | :22:31. | :22:33. | |
Tiley was just 24 years old when the South Wales miners walked out on | :22:34. | :22:38. | |
strike in 1984. His photographs were published around the world and | :22:39. | :22:41. | |
became some of the defining images of the decade. Now, he's returned to | :22:42. | :22:45. | |
the people and places he documented nearly 30 years ago to explore the | :22:46. | :22:50. | |
legacy of that strike. Here's Carwyn Jones. | :22:51. | :22:56. | |
March 1984, the minds and communities across South Wales were | :22:57. | :23:02. | |
about to be transformed for ever. The year-long strike that followed | :23:03. | :23:06. | |
was bitter and brutal. A young photographer from the Gwent valleys | :23:07. | :23:09. | |
captured every angle of the dispute. Not from afar, but up close and | :23:10. | :23:14. | |
personal. In 1984, I was 24 years old. It was a massive new story | :23:15. | :23:22. | |
breaking basically in my backyard. And I was starting to work for | :23:23. | :23:24. | |
national newspapers, producing photographs. It was a real learning | :23:25. | :23:30. | |
curve for me at the time to be thrown into this cauldron, if you | :23:31. | :23:37. | |
like. Today, Roger has returned for a new photographic project. He is | :23:38. | :23:41. | |
revisiting the people and places he documented 30 years ago. His first | :23:42. | :23:43. | |
stop is the site of the old colliery. This is where the canteen | :23:44. | :23:50. | |
was. Just up the way there, a few hundred yards, was the shafts and | :23:51. | :23:56. | |
the pithead winding gear. It is just derelict now. Roger was there on the | :23:57. | :24:05. | |
cold morning of March in 1885 when the miners marched back to work. He | :24:06. | :24:10. | |
knew these men well. He had photographed them before and during | :24:11. | :24:13. | |
the strike. Now, they are in his viewfinder again. His new series of | :24:14. | :24:22. | |
portraits reveal that the men retain vivid memories of the strike. You do | :24:23. | :24:37. | |
not have the community spirit now, I don't think, like you had before. | :24:38. | :24:41. | |
Everybody knew each other. We worked with each other, we were belonging | :24:42. | :24:45. | |
to each other. That has all gone now. It is not the same, I don't | :24:46. | :24:51. | |
think so. For this retrospective project, | :24:52. | :24:54. | |
Roger is using the same black and white film stock he captained his | :24:55. | :24:59. | |
camera bag in 1984. His photographs will be exhibited next year to mark | :25:00. | :25:02. | |
30 years of the miners' strike, and event that's shaped the landscape of | :25:03. | :25:09. | |
South Wales and turned him into an award-winning photographer. | :25:10. | :25:11. | |
Let's get the weather forecast now with Derek. | :25:12. | :25:16. | |
Good news. It's been a bit dreary today. Dull and damp, but better | :25:17. | :25:22. | |
weather is on the way. Tomorrow much drier and clearer. Some lovely | :25:23. | :25:27. | |
sunshine and good visibility too. In the meantime, more rain and drizzle | :25:28. | :25:31. | |
this evening and into the night. Misty and murky too with fog | :25:32. | :25:34. | |
patches. During the early hours, dry and clearer weather will spread from | :25:35. | :25:37. | |
the northwest. A mild night, especially in the south but in the | :25:38. | :25:41. | |
north the temperature will fall as low as six Celsius inland. | :25:42. | :25:44. | |
Tomorrow's chart shows a front moving through South Eeast England | :25:45. | :25:47. | |
with a ridge of high pressure across southern Britain. And if you have a | :25:48. | :25:50. | |
barometer, you will notice the pressure rising. So here's the | :25:51. | :25:55. | |
picture for 8am. Much nicer compared to today. Dry and bright with some | :25:56. | :26:01. | |
high cloud. Good visibility too and not too cold. Nine Celsius in | :26:02. | :26:04. | |
Carmarthen. During the day, staying dry with fewer clouds and generally | :26:05. | :26:08. | |
more sunshine in the afternoon. Top temperatures nine to 12 Celsius with | :26:09. | :26:12. | |
a wet north-westerly breeze. In mid Wales tomorrow, a nice day. Dry with | :26:13. | :26:18. | |
a mixture of cloud and sunshine. Ideal for a walk on the coast or in | :26:19. | :26:24. | |
the Elan Valley. The high in Rhayader nine Celsius with a light | :26:25. | :26:26. | |
breeze. Tomorrow night dry and fairly clear. The wind falling light | :26:27. | :26:31. | |
and turning cold with a widespread ground frost. Even an air frost | :26:32. | :26:36. | |
inland in some rural areas. So a chilly start to Wednesday. Some | :26:37. | :26:40. | |
sunshine but the wind will gradually freshen. Most of the day dry but | :26:41. | :26:44. | |
rain will spread from the northwest later in the afternoon and evening. | :26:45. | :26:48. | |
Thursday windy and feeling colder with a mixture of sunny intervals | :26:49. | :26:52. | |
and scattered blustery shower. Friday should be dry and calmer with | :26:53. | :26:57. | |
lighter winds. Our picture tonight is from Colin | :26:58. | :27:02. | |
Cormack. Taken on Sunday, it shows a covering of snow on Snowdon. Thanks, | :27:03. | :27:04. | |
Colin. Winter is on its way. A reminder of | :27:05. | :27:13. | |
our top stories. The father of seven-year-old Luke Jenkins from | :27:14. | :27:16. | |
Cardiff says he pleaded with hospital staff to take his young | :27:17. | :27:18. | |
son's condition more seriously. An inquest has heard how Luke had a | :27:19. | :27:21. | |
successful heart operation at Bristol Children's Hospital last | :27:22. | :27:24. | |
year, but died a week later. Thousands of people have taken part | :27:25. | :27:27. | |
in Armistice Day commemorations around Wales to honour those who | :27:28. | :27:31. | |
have died since World War I. A two-minute silence was held, while | :27:32. | :27:34. | |
at the Royal Mint a new ?5 Remembrance Day coin was made. | :27:35. | :27:37. | |
X-Ray's coming up at 7:30pm. Here's Lucy and Rhodri with a preview. | :27:38. | :27:41. | |
Tonight, we are going behind the counter at your local fast food | :27:42. | :27:44. | |
outlet, finding out if the food they sell really matches the menu. We are | :27:45. | :27:49. | |
delving deeper into those green companies that are not delivering on | :27:50. | :27:53. | |
their promises. And I am solving a problem with the railways. We will | :27:54. | :28:01. | |
have an update at 8pm. Thank you for watching. Good | :28:02. | :28:02. | |
evening. | :28:03. | :28:06. |
