:00:00. > :00:00.military activity in the area tonight. That is all from us,
:00:00. > :00:08.Welcome to Wales Today. Tonight's headlines. As the owner of a
:00:09. > :00:11.car-wash firm is fined for failing to pay the minimum wage, a union
:00:12. > :00:24.warns companies here are cheating workers out of a legal pay-packet.
:00:25. > :00:27.My friend works in a pub and she earns ?3. I think it is a bit of a
:00:28. > :00:31.shame because I was on ?6 and I was doing the same job as her. Thousands
:00:32. > :00:36.of workers in Wales are paid the basic minimum wage and finds are to
:00:37. > :00:52.increase for employers caught underpaying their staff.
:00:53. > :01:01.As you all know, I sometimes wonder why I bought Cardiff football club.
:01:02. > :01:04.A stark warning for fans from Vincent Tan - unless they get behind
:01:05. > :01:07.him, Cardiff City can find a new owner. Prince Charles visits Wales
:01:08. > :01:15.to celebrate St David's Day and receives a special gift for his new
:01:16. > :01:20.grandson. That will go down very well with someone. And a rare sight,
:01:21. > :01:24.caught on camera - the spectacular Northern Lights illuminating the
:01:25. > :01:28.skies above Wales. Good evening. A Carmarthenshire
:01:29. > :01:32.business is one of the first in the UK to be named and shamed - for
:01:33. > :01:36.failing to pay the minimum wage. The car wash firm will now be fined, but
:01:37. > :01:39.as the UK Government warns tougher penalties are on the cards, a union
:01:40. > :01:44.has warned larger companies are also cheating many more staff out of a
:01:45. > :01:50.legal wage. Our business correspondent, Brian Meechan
:01:51. > :01:53.reports. It was a landmark piece of
:01:54. > :01:57.legislation, the introduction of the minimum wage was top of the agenda
:01:58. > :02:03.for the Labour government had swept to power in 1997. But enforcing the
:02:04. > :02:07.minimum wage has always been the challenge. Now the UK Government is
:02:08. > :02:12.clamping down on bosses who failed to pay it. Five have been named and
:02:13. > :02:19.shamed, including this one, a car wash operator in Carmarthen. The
:02:20. > :02:26.minimum wage is ?6 31 for everyone 21 years and over. 7% of workers in
:02:27. > :02:31.Wales earn that amount with 6% being the figure for UK wide workers. And
:02:32. > :02:37.from next week, employers will be the figure for UK wide workers. And
:02:38. > :02:42.fined up to ?20,000 per underpaid worker. There are calls for a higher
:02:43. > :02:48.rate, known as the living wage. Workers under 21 get less. I
:02:49. > :02:53.actually work at a restaurant last summer and they paid me ?3 75 an
:02:54. > :02:59.hour. And on top of that, they taxed me as well, which meant I was on
:03:00. > :03:06.about ?3 an hour. My friend works in a pub and she earns ?3. I think it
:03:07. > :03:12.is a shame because I was on ?6 and I was doing the same job as her. I
:03:13. > :03:17.have never been on the living wage, for example. It has always been the
:03:18. > :03:24.minimum wage. Minimum wage barely covers everything. There is not a
:03:25. > :03:29.day goes by that I am not in my overdraft. But the unions say the UK
:03:30. > :03:34.garment is not even scratching the surface of the problem. It is
:03:35. > :03:43.claimed larger companies are yet to be caught. Interviewed at times,
:03:44. > :03:48.bosses often try to their wage bill. The irony of the situation is that
:03:49. > :03:51.generally organisations know that it is through people that they can
:03:52. > :03:56.achieve the sustainable advantage they are looking for. However, it is
:03:57. > :04:01.ironic that these people practices that tend to get cut initially
:04:02. > :04:05.because of the attitude of them being a cost, not so much an asset.
:04:06. > :04:12.Cracking down on employers with heavier fines is not with macro
:04:13. > :04:19.likely to be -- is likely to be welcomed by most. Fewer than one in
:04:20. > :04:24.five Welsh voters say they would like to see an independent Scotland.
:04:25. > :04:27.That's one of the results from the annual St David's Day poll,
:04:28. > :04:31.commissioned by BBC Wales. Our Political Editor Nick Servini has
:04:32. > :04:36.the details. Nick, what more can you tell us? Lucy, the issue of whether
:04:37. > :04:39.Scotland should be made independent is obviously high on the political
:04:40. > :04:42.agenda at the moment and this is the first time we've been given an
:04:43. > :04:46.indication of what people here think. The poll indicates that 19%
:04:47. > :04:49.here back the idea of independence, compared with 69% who believe
:04:50. > :04:55.Scotland should remain in the union in the referendum in September.
:04:56. > :05:04.1,000 people were questioned over the phone and just 5% support
:05:05. > :05:08.independence for Wales. The poll also looked at what difference a yes
:05:09. > :05:17.vote would make in Scotland and the answer is very little. In fact the
:05:18. > :05:25.numbers supporting independence here rises to just 7% in the event of a
:05:26. > :05:28.yes vote. It also gives us some indication of how people feel
:05:29. > :05:37.towards the National Assembly, as we've been finding out. Good
:05:38. > :05:48.morning. And it is a very good morning in Wales. And so the
:05:49. > :05:55.devolution process got underway. The way Wales is governed was changing.
:05:56. > :05:59.That devolution vote back in 1997 was a pretty close-run thing and the
:06:00. > :06:05.intervening have seen attitudes change but still a significant
:06:06. > :06:12.number of us asked -- would like to see the assembly abolished, but why?
:06:13. > :06:19.I have come here to find out. The county voted no 17 years ago. Many
:06:20. > :06:22.sketch ticks remain. In our Saint Davids Day poll, we asked people
:06:23. > :06:26.across Wales what they thought of the assembly. 37% supported the
:06:27. > :06:33.proposition that it should have more powers. 28% said it should remain as
:06:34. > :06:38.it is now. But 23%, almost a quarter, want the assembly
:06:39. > :06:43.abolished. 5% said Wales should become fully independent. On the
:06:44. > :06:48.streets, I found a measure of that support and disenchantment. I think
:06:49. > :06:54.we have got it good now. I do not see the point in scrapping it. I
:06:55. > :07:02.would properly scrap it. I just don't think it is necessary. In this
:07:03. > :07:05.butcher shop, the business is now a household name. His products are on
:07:06. > :07:12.supermarket shelves everywhere. He says it has happened in part with
:07:13. > :07:17.help from the Welsh Government. I think it is politicians in general
:07:18. > :07:21.in the UK at the moment. There is a malaise really. It is that love hate
:07:22. > :07:25.relationship that we sometimes have with politicians. But there are
:07:26. > :07:28.specific rumbles, some blame the semi for what they think are Welsh
:07:29. > :07:37.Government failings in the NHS and schools. -- the assembly. Across the
:07:38. > :07:42.street, you will find the regional offices. But many here will tell you
:07:43. > :07:46.that North Wales is promote from the dealings of the assembly and
:07:47. > :07:56.government. You will read all about it in letter columns in the local
:07:57. > :08:00.paper. We are 15 years in since the first Welsh assembly. In 50 years
:08:01. > :08:05.time, will be levied a bit more? I think everything improves with time.
:08:06. > :08:09.We will have different generations coming through. They won't have
:08:10. > :08:19.known a time before the assembly. I am sure that in 15 years time, there
:08:20. > :08:23.may be a minority of distance, but the majority of people will be
:08:24. > :08:29.completely used to the idea of having devolved government. Time is
:08:30. > :08:34.the great healer. For now, it seems the assembly is more understood than
:08:35. > :08:37.it was. But not yet entirely loved. And we've also got some indications
:08:38. > :08:41.of how people are going to vote in the general election? Yes, this was
:08:42. > :08:46.how Wales looked after the last general election in 2010. Let's look
:08:47. > :08:52.at Labour first. Back then they had 36% of the vote. The lowest for the
:08:53. > :08:57.party in Wales since the war. The poll suggests that now stands at
:08:58. > :09:03.42%. They're still the dominant party then but not where they were
:09:04. > :09:06.back at their peak in 1997. So if they can continue to increase
:09:07. > :09:09.support and these figures are repeated on polling day, they really
:09:10. > :09:14.start to threaten a number of Conservative held seats. They'd win
:09:15. > :09:23.Cardiff North from the Conservatives, which is a highly
:09:24. > :09:29.marginal seat. And they would also win Cardiff Central from the Liberal
:09:30. > :09:33.Democrats. That would also be down to a fall in support which the poll
:09:34. > :09:40.has indicated is happening for the Liberal Democrats. But it suggests
:09:41. > :09:44.that this is the only change we'd see to the political map. And what
:09:45. > :09:48.about the other parties? The poll suggests that the Conservatives now
:09:49. > :09:53.have 24% of the vote. Down slightly on four years ago. But it means the
:09:54. > :09:56.Tory vote has held fairly steady and if that continues, they could just
:09:57. > :09:59.about hold on to other marginal seats like the Vale of Glamorgan,
:10:00. > :10:02.Aberconwy, Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire. It's also been quite
:10:03. > :10:07.a strong showing for Plaid Cymru, particularly in the context of a
:10:08. > :10:13.general election. They're up three to 14% of the vote. But that
:10:14. > :10:16.wouldn't be enough for them to win more than the current three seats
:10:17. > :10:20.they have. So for example take a target seat for Plaid like Llanelli
:10:21. > :10:26.which they would hope to win from Labour, the swing wouldn't be
:10:27. > :10:29.enough. UKIP have 7% of the vote. So under these results, we're not
:10:30. > :10:32.seeing a wholesale redrawing of the political map but there will be an
:10:33. > :10:37.unusually high number of highly competitive seats. Of course it's a
:10:38. > :10:40.poll, and doesn't take into account local issues and the strengths and
:10:41. > :11:00.weaknesses of the candidates, which will be hugely important.
:11:01. > :11:03.New figures show that nearly half the money spent making NHS staff
:11:04. > :11:06.redundant in Wales over the past three years was paid out by the
:11:07. > :11:10.Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board in North Wales. Almost ?1
:11:11. > :11:13.million was spent making six people redundant. ?800,000 of which was for
:11:14. > :11:15.three members of staff in 2010 to 2011. The Welsh Conservatives, who
:11:16. > :11:19.got hold of the figures, said were eye-watering. Betsi Cadwaladr
:11:20. > :11:21.health board said redundancies are only made under exceptional
:11:22. > :11:29.circumstances, and pay outs follow nationally agreed terms and
:11:30. > :11:32.conditions that apply UK wide. Traditionally, NHS workers were
:11:33. > :11:38.possibly earning less than people in the private sector but by now,
:11:39. > :11:45.salaries have called up and yet this policy is still in existence. That
:11:46. > :11:49.is why it now seems to a lot of people quite unfair. Even though it
:11:50. > :11:55.is not the fault of the individuals involved. Three officers from Gwent
:11:56. > :11:58.Police have been arrested on suspicion of perverting because of
:11:59. > :12:01.justice. They were suspended from duty following an investigation by
:12:02. > :12:05.the professional standards unit. All three have been released on police
:12:06. > :12:12.bail third -- pending further enquiries.
:12:13. > :12:16.Plans to giving Tim Parks towers to Wales should be put to the people in
:12:17. > :12:20.a referendum, according to MPs on the Welsh affairs committee. They
:12:21. > :12:24.also agreed that the way funding is allocated to Wales from the UK
:12:25. > :12:28.Government should be examine before the general election. The committee
:12:29. > :12:32.has been looking at the draft Wales Bill. It sets out packs and
:12:33. > :12:35.borrowing powers. The leader of Cardiff Council has announced she's
:12:36. > :12:39.standing down because of her husband's ill health. Heather Joyce,
:12:40. > :12:42.Labour councillor for Llanrumney, will formally resign once a new
:12:43. > :12:47.leader has been elected. Mrs Joyce said it was a difficult decision.
:12:48. > :12:54.Celebrations have already started ahead of St David's Day on Saturday.
:12:55. > :12:58.First Minister Carwyn Jones rang the opening bell at the New York stock
:12:59. > :12:59.exchange to signal the start of trading. Closer to home, Prince
:13:00. > :13:02.Charles has trading. Closer to home, Prince
:13:03. > :13:05.Wales, seeing first-hand how a Georgian Mansion has been
:13:06. > :13:13.transformed, following a ?7 million restoration project. From Llanelli,
:13:14. > :13:16.Nicola Smith reports. It's a song synonymous with Llanelli
:13:17. > :13:20.and today, school children sang Sosban Fach to welcome the Prince of
:13:21. > :13:33.Wales to a place the town is now very proud. The Grade one listed
:13:34. > :13:36.Llanelly House was once on the point of collapse, but thanks to a high
:13:37. > :13:39.profile TV campaign, a decade of restoration, and funding totalling
:13:40. > :13:46.?7 million, Prince Charles was able to take a look around. From the
:13:47. > :13:50.great hall, to the bedroom of the one time lady of the house, to the
:13:51. > :13:55.housemaid's quarters, he was treated to stories of ghosts, of scandal,
:13:56. > :14:01.and of determination. Because just a few years ago, Llanelly House looked
:14:02. > :14:04.like this. Derelict. Crumbling. Then in 2003, it featured on the BBC's
:14:05. > :14:12.Restoration programme, It didn't win, but it sparked renewed efforts
:14:13. > :14:15.to save it. For more than a decade, this restoration project has been a
:14:16. > :14:18.labour of love for more than 100 people, from the town council, the
:14:19. > :14:22.architects, and the craftsmen who helped put this place back together.
:14:23. > :14:33.People like John James, who's team of joiners made the main staircase.
:14:34. > :14:40.Virtually all of the stairs Kim Little the one tree. -- came out of
:14:41. > :14:47.the one tree. That came from a different source. One of the amazing
:14:48. > :14:50.things about the project as it came to one end was the glow that the
:14:51. > :14:56.building had and it really made you appreciate the quality of craft and
:14:57. > :15:00.set -- craftsmanship. We have still got a lot of work to do. Before he
:15:01. > :15:04.left, there was time to sign the visitor book, the first of many

:15:10. > :15:13.Still to come tonight. Some fans have painted him as the villain of
:15:14. > :15:18.Cardiff City - but Vincent Tan has a stark warning for them. And caught
:15:19. > :15:27.on camera - the spectacular Northern Lights illuminate our skies.
:15:28. > :15:30.Immigration continues to lead UKIP's agenda. At the party's spring
:15:31. > :15:37.conference today, leader Nigel Farage said it had caused areas of
:15:38. > :15:41.the UK to become unrecognisable. The issue was also a concern for the
:15:42. > :15:44.lead Welsh candidate in the European elections, who thinks UKIP can top
:15:45. > :15:46.the polls in Wales. From Torquay, here's our political reporter James
:15:47. > :15:49.Williams. Make no bones about it, UKIP
:15:50. > :15:54.gathering in Torquay today for its Spring Conference has its eyes
:15:55. > :15:58.firmly set on the prize of the upcoming European elections. Their
:15:59. > :16:01.breakthrough in Wales came in 2009 and the party believes it has the
:16:02. > :16:07.right message to retain one of the four Welsh seats. We are told that
:16:08. > :16:10.people do not want to know about the European Union, they do not want to
:16:11. > :16:15.talk about immigration. But this election is all about the European
:16:16. > :16:21.Union, or about immigration, people can control immigration in this
:16:22. > :16:31.country. It was a pitch echoed by leader Nigel Farage. BBC Wales'
:16:32. > :16:37.Saint Davids Day poll say 70% of people think that immigration to the
:16:38. > :16:42.UK is too high. Over half of correspondence want to stay in the
:16:43. > :16:45.European Union. The party was out canvassing in Swansea over the
:16:46. > :16:51.weekend. UKIP believes it has momentum in Wales, having seen its
:16:52. > :16:58.membership double over the last year. One of my concerns in getting
:16:59. > :17:02.together this branch was that people could get to know each other and
:17:03. > :17:06.realise that they were not alone. Having colleagues was really
:17:07. > :17:10.important. Now they can see today that we have got hundreds, thousands
:17:11. > :17:15.of colleagues. It is the party 's aim to top the election in Wales. No
:17:16. > :17:18.mean feat given that a recent opinion poll has them trailing
:17:19. > :17:25.Labour in second place by some distance. But UKIP is a party with
:17:26. > :17:30.the wind in its sales. Cardiff City's owner making all the
:17:31. > :17:36.headlines today. Here's Claire with tonight's sport.
:17:37. > :17:39.Good evening. He's the controversial owner of Cardiff City, that's not
:17:40. > :17:42.shy is expressing his views. Vincent Tan has launched a staunch defence
:17:43. > :17:46.of his actions, saying he believes he's been unfairly portrayed as a
:17:47. > :17:49.villain. In an exclusive interview with the BBC, the 62-year-old says
:17:50. > :17:53.critical fans owe him an apology and although he plans to stay at the
:17:54. > :18:02.club, he could be forced out if supporters turn on him. Matthew
:18:03. > :18:07.Murray reports. Kuala Lumpur, the capital of
:18:08. > :18:10.Malaysia and home to Vincent Tan. Here the businessman is celebrated.
:18:11. > :18:14.Hundreds turn out to mark his birthday and his achievements and in
:18:15. > :18:17.the birthday speeches as well as thanking well-wishers, there is
:18:18. > :18:19.the birthday speeches as well as always a mention of Cardiff City. As
:18:20. > :18:24.you all know, I bought Cardiff football club. Sometimes I wonder
:18:25. > :18:27.why I did that. It is a far cry from his reception in Cardiff. After
:18:28. > :18:32.changing the club colours from blue to red and sacking manager Malky
:18:33. > :18:37.Mackay, some supporters have painted him as a villain but he believes
:18:38. > :18:42.they are in the minority. The problem is that you have 10% or 5%
:18:43. > :18:47.or maybe a few hundred people they are not supportive, they are more
:18:48. > :18:54.vocal. And then you have the British press who has been misled. The
:18:55. > :18:57.working relationship between Vincent Tan and Malky Mackay was obviously
:18:58. > :19:00.strained. The man he has appointed to keep Cardiff City in the Premier
:19:01. > :19:03.league is more than happy with how their roles are defined. He wants to
:19:04. > :19:08.know the ins and outs of it. It has to be transparent and there has to
:19:09. > :19:12.be a structure and he's involved in that structure. Football decisions,
:19:13. > :19:19.obviously, are mine. But with Cardiff in the relegation zone, fans
:19:20. > :19:23.are worried this is all about ego. Today is the final day for many fans
:19:24. > :19:28.to renew their season tickets and I know that a few people have come to
:19:29. > :19:35.me and they are a bit undecided. This could send them over the edge.
:19:36. > :19:38.Many have been exposing their views on social media. One fan wrote it is
:19:39. > :19:42.ironic that Vincent Tan is making Cardiff play in red because it is
:19:43. > :19:47.lucky yet they are consistently getting beaten by teams wearing
:19:48. > :19:53.blue. Another says without Vincent Tan, Cardiff City would be millions
:19:54. > :19:57.in debt. A view of course shared by the owner. He believes he saved this
:19:58. > :20:00.club and should be praised for it. He warns that if the criticism
:20:01. > :20:04.club and should be praised for it. continues, he will walk away from
:20:05. > :20:10.the Cardiff City Stadium. I would stay, unless the fans are really
:20:11. > :20:17.annoying me so much then I will leave. No way I would change it back
:20:18. > :20:28.to blue. Perhaps they can find an owner that likes blue. He can buy me
:20:29. > :20:32.out. I will go to another club. Vincent Tan speaking. Swansea City
:20:33. > :20:35.fans have demanded answers from UEFA, after hundreds missed the
:20:36. > :20:37.first half hour of their side's Europa League match against Napoli
:20:38. > :20:40.last night. There's been trouble involving Napoli fans in previous
:20:41. > :20:44.European matches against teams and Swans fans were bussed into the game
:20:45. > :20:48.under a police escort - it meant a 15 minute journey took an hour and a
:20:49. > :20:50.half. Many of them missed Jonathan de Guzman's away goal as the Swans
:20:51. > :20:53.looked to have done de Guzman's away goal as the Swans
:20:54. > :20:57.progress to the last 16. But two goals in the last 12 minutes for the
:20:58. > :21:03.home side put the Italian team through.
:21:04. > :21:06.Swansea play Crystal Palace in the Premier League on Sunday. Cardiff
:21:07. > :21:12.City are away to Tottenham on Sunday, looking to bounce back after
:21:13. > :21:17.the humiliating defeat to Hull. We have to go there in a positive
:21:18. > :21:22.frame of mind and get a result. For the first time, we have lots that
:21:23. > :21:28.belief. You cannot do that in this league. If you do that, you will get
:21:29. > :21:32.turned over. The most important aspect of going into this game is
:21:33. > :21:35.belief. We have to believe we can get a good result. That is what we
:21:36. > :21:40.have been trying to build this week. Rugby. There's Pro12 action this
:21:41. > :21:43.evening. The Ospreys and Dragons both away from home. The Ospreys are
:21:44. > :21:46.in Edinburgh, Welsh internationals Justin Tipuric and Dan Biggar back
:21:47. > :21:49.in their starting line up. The Dragons are at Ravenhill, hoping to
:21:50. > :21:53.do the double over Ulster. The Ospreys match is live on Scrum V
:21:54. > :21:56.Live tonight - that's from 7.30pm over on BBC Two Wales.
:21:57. > :21:59.Cardiff's Elinor Barker and her team-mates won gold for Great
:22:00. > :22:01.Britain in the team pursuit at the Track Cycling World Championships in
:22:02. > :22:05.Colombia overnight. The quartet nearly crashed-out on the final lap,
:22:06. > :22:09.as Barker's legs gave up, but she steered out of the way, to let her
:22:10. > :22:11.team-mates bring them home ahead of Canada. She races in the individual
:22:12. > :22:16.event later, whilst Abergavenny's Becky James starts the defence of
:22:17. > :22:20.her World Sprint Title. There are no Welsh players left in
:22:21. > :22:24.the last eight of the Welsh Open Snooker. Former World Champion Mark
:22:25. > :22:31.Williams is out after losing to Marcu Fu 4-2 last night. The
:22:32. > :22:33.quarterfinals are underway. You can watch the action over on BBC Two
:22:34. > :22:36.Wales from 7pm and later at 10pm. watch the action over on BBC Two
:22:37. > :22:40.And a great result for Wales' netballers last night - they beat
:22:41. > :22:43.Scotland 42-34 to win the Northern Cup. It was revenge after being
:22:44. > :22:46.beaten by the Scots earlier in the week, and hugely important in the
:22:47. > :22:52.run-up to the Commonwealth Games this summer.
:22:53. > :22:55.People across Wales were treated to a spectacular light show last night
:22:56. > :22:59.with the rare appearance of the Aurora Borealis or Northern Lights.
:23:00. > :23:01.Many of you have sent us your pictures of the phenomenon and
:23:02. > :23:16.Matthew Richards has been looking through them.
:23:17. > :23:19.From the Brecon Beacons in the South to Penmon on Anglesey in the North,
:23:20. > :23:24.plenty of people captured the glow of the Northern Lights. Social media
:23:25. > :23:27.sites alerted people to their appearance between eight and 10pm
:23:28. > :23:30.last night. Usually seen above the magnetic pole in the Northern
:23:31. > :23:34.hemisphere we got the chance to see them here thanks to a solar event
:23:35. > :23:38.which threw charged particles into our atmosphere that light up when
:23:39. > :23:42.they hit other gas particles. If you have a bigger burst of energy from
:23:43. > :23:48.the sun, it throws up lots of particles into space and if the
:23:49. > :23:52.solar wind passes by the year, those particles get roaring towards the
:23:53. > :23:55.years and they radiate, causing what we call the Northern lights,
:23:56. > :23:59.essentially it is like a fluorescent tube. Rural and coastal areas with
:24:00. > :24:04.less light pollution got the best display. Rob Price took these
:24:05. > :24:07.pictures near Machynlleth and these were taken by Ross Davies on
:24:08. > :24:10.Prestatyn promenade and from a lofty vantage point above the town. The
:24:11. > :24:14.amateur photographer had always wanted to snap this particular
:24:15. > :24:17.spectacle. I have never seen it before. I did not think I would see
:24:18. > :24:20.it in Wales. It was on the bucket list, so I problem we would have
:24:21. > :24:26.gone to Finland or Iceland or somewhere like that to go and see it
:24:27. > :24:30.but to have it here on your home turf, is amazing. John Rowlands, a
:24:31. > :24:33.fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society, was stargazing at Cemaes
:24:34. > :24:38.Bay on Anglesey when he took these photos. I cannot believe I missed it
:24:39. > :24:41.and last night was a rare opportunity for people right across
:24:42. > :24:45.Wales to get incredibly clear views. Goodness knows what we will have a
:24:46. > :24:47.chance to see it again. The only chance I will get to see it is
:24:48. > :25:00.through other peoples photographs. Never mind. Nice change from rain
:25:01. > :25:03.and cloud in the skies. It is looking like the best day of
:25:04. > :25:09.the weekend, tomorrow. We are looking OK. The tomorrow, it is a
:25:10. > :25:12.day of sunny spells and just a few coastal showers but they will become
:25:13. > :25:19.more widespread through the afternoon. This evening, very few
:25:20. > :25:24.showers. For the most of us, it is dry and a cold night. Temperatures
:25:25. > :25:32.dipping away under the cold skies. We will cease Frost and fog forming
:25:33. > :25:39.along the border. A brief ridge of high pressure building in just in
:25:40. > :25:43.time for Saint Davids Day. Remaining unsettled through next week as well.
:25:44. > :25:48.First thing tomorrow morning for the first day of March, we can look
:25:49. > :25:51.forward to a cold start. We will cease in dense fog first thing but
:25:52. > :25:57.it will clear as we go through the day. We will see some brightness in
:25:58. > :26:02.Gwynedd. But equally there will be some showers. And in the Pembroke
:26:03. > :26:06.sure, there is a risk of a few showers. As we go through the day,
:26:07. > :26:13.they will be some bright and sunny intervals. Those showers coming in
:26:14. > :26:16.rolling in from the West. Confined to coastal areas at first but
:26:17. > :26:21.gradually they will come further inland as we go into the afternoon.
:26:22. > :26:23.Top temperature eight agree Celsius. More persistent showers merging into
:26:24. > :26:31.longer spells of rain for Saturday night. But we will see some dry
:26:32. > :26:37.intervals. Temperature is no lower than two Celsius. On Sunday,
:26:38. > :26:42.starting cloudy. Maybe some brightness along the border but not
:26:43. > :26:46.for very long. The rain will reach Pembrokeshire and gradually spread
:26:47. > :26:52.to most parts by Sunday afternoon. By Sunday evening, the rain will
:26:53. > :26:55.clear and then we have more showers. Remaining fairly unsettled as we go
:26:56. > :26:58.into next week. Showers with longer spells of rain. But we can look
:26:59. > :27:01.into next week. Showers with longer forward to something a little milder
:27:02. > :27:08.as we go into the middle of next week. Today's picture is a beautiful
:27:09. > :27:11.sight. Our top story tonight, a
:27:12. > :27:14.Carmarthenshire business is one of the first in the UK to be named and
:27:15. > :27:20.shamed for failing to pay the minimum wage. The firm will now be
:27:21. > :27:25.fined. The UK Government warns tougher penalties are on the cards.
:27:26. > :27:27.And the owner of Cardiff City Vincent Tan have defended his
:27:28. > :27:33.actions since taking over the club, saying he's believes he has been
:27:34. > :27:37.unfairly betrayed as a villain. He says critical fans owe him an
:27:38. > :27:41.apology. I'll be back with an update at 8pm and a full round up on the
:27:42. > :27:45.day's news at 10:25pm. That's Wales Today. From all of us on the team,
:27:46. > :27:47.enjoy St David's Day tomorrow and goodnight.
