0:00:00 > 0:00:01back at 10.05 with the late news but now on BBC One,
0:00:14 > 0:00:15Good evening.
0:00:15 > 0:00:18Preparations are underway to help protect homes and motorists,
0:00:18 > 0:00:21as more bad weather is being forecast for the coming days,
0:00:21 > 0:00:23this time in South Wales.
0:00:23 > 0:00:26There was chaos in parts of North Wales over the weekend,
0:00:26 > 0:00:33with homes evacuated and the A55 dual carriageway shut for hours.
0:00:33 > 0:00:35The Welsh Government says flood management is a key priority
0:00:35 > 0:00:38and it's already invested significantly.
0:00:38 > 0:00:41Nick Palit reports.
0:00:41 > 0:00:44Sifting through the flood-damaged memories of a lifetime.
0:00:44 > 0:00:50This man is having to throw out many of his mother's treasured
0:00:50 > 0:00:52photographs after water ravaged these homes in this
0:00:52 > 0:00:56village near Bangor.
0:00:56 > 0:00:57Unfortunately, householders here know what to do
0:00:57 > 0:01:00in these circumstances.
0:01:00 > 0:01:03It is the second time this has happened in three years.
0:01:03 > 0:01:08We decided to lift the three-piece and the two chairs onto the table.
0:01:08 > 0:01:13And then within half an hour, the water was about 18 inches high
0:01:13 > 0:01:18throughout the house.
0:01:18 > 0:01:22Villagers say that they are nowhere a river but that they are
0:01:22 > 0:01:25the victims of flood water running off the nearby A55 dual carriageway.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28The local assembly member says that the last time this happened,
0:01:28 > 0:01:30the Welsh Government pledged to take action to ensure it
0:01:30 > 0:01:31would never happen again.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34There is a scheme, it is a 1.5 million scheme, but the Welsh
0:01:34 > 0:01:37Government has so far refused to supply the funds necessary
0:01:37 > 0:01:40to protect these homes and to protect the A55, of course,
0:01:40 > 0:01:42which is a vital artery not only to Northwest Wales
0:01:42 > 0:01:48but to Ireland as well.
0:01:48 > 0:01:51The Welsh Government say that they have committed almost ?300
0:01:51 > 0:01:53million to managing flood risk, which includes significant
0:01:53 > 0:01:54investment in North Wales.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56They say that they will work with local authorities to see
0:01:56 > 0:02:00what additional action can be taken to protect homes.
0:02:00 > 0:02:05With water and showery rain forecast, householders in southern
0:02:05 > 0:02:07parts of Wales are now on alert.
0:02:07 > 0:02:13We are predicting...
0:02:13 > 0:02:16We are getting forecasts of a lot of rain on Wednesday,
0:02:16 > 0:02:19so with the ground already quite wet because of the rain we have had,
0:02:19 > 0:02:21river levels could rise quite quickly, so we are monitoring
0:02:21 > 0:02:24the situation quite closely but as I said, it will be mostly
0:02:24 > 0:02:27South Wales that will get affected and not North Wales.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29Tonight, Natural Resources Wales have one flood warning for part
0:02:29 > 0:02:32of the lower Dee Valley and 13 flood alerts across North,
0:02:32 > 0:02:33South and West Wales.
0:02:33 > 0:02:35Revenge porn victims are often wrongly blamed for bringing
0:02:35 > 0:02:37the offences on themselves.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40That's according to the charity Revenge Porn Helpline,
0:02:40 > 0:02:44which claims some police forces don't take the crime seriously.
0:02:44 > 0:02:50It comes as figures show 56 reports have been made to police in Wales
0:02:50 > 0:02:52since specific legislation came in in April.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55All four Welsh forces said they took allegations seriously and had
0:02:55 > 0:02:59dedicated staff to tackle the crime.
0:02:59 > 0:03:02A terminally ill mother has made a plea to her son's killers
0:03:02 > 0:03:05to tell her where his remains are buried.
0:03:05 > 0:03:07Kyle Vaughan from Newbridge, near Caerphilly, vanished
0:03:07 > 0:03:08three years ago.
0:03:08 > 0:03:16Anna Bailey reports.
0:03:16 > 0:03:17Kyle Vaughan's family are spending their third
0:03:17 > 0:03:18Christmas without him.
0:03:18 > 0:03:20The 24-year-old disappeared in 2012.
0:03:20 > 0:03:25A police search quickly turned into a murder investigation.
0:03:25 > 0:03:27His body was never found and eight people arrested in connection
0:03:27 > 0:03:29with the enquiry were all released without charge.
0:03:29 > 0:03:32It is likely to be his mother Mary's last Christmas.
0:03:32 > 0:03:35Her liver cancer has progressed and doctors say that she could have
0:03:35 > 0:03:38weeks left to live.
0:03:38 > 0:03:42I know that somebody has done something to him.
0:03:42 > 0:03:45They know what has happened to him.
0:03:45 > 0:03:48And I would just like them to come forward and say.
0:03:48 > 0:03:52Put themselves in my shoes.
0:03:52 > 0:04:01What would they feel like if they were going to die
0:04:01 > 0:04:07and their son or daughter was dead and it did not know where they were.
0:04:07 > 0:04:10Kyle was last seen at around 11pm on the 30th of December,
0:04:10 > 0:04:11three years ago.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13His silver Peugeot was found crashed between Risca and Crosskeys
0:04:13 > 0:04:14on the A467.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17It is not known if he was driving at the time.
0:04:17 > 0:04:19Police believe several people know what happened to Kyle.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22I would appeal to those individuals that are currently spending time
0:04:22 > 0:04:27with families to stop, take a moment and put themselves
0:04:27 > 0:04:29in Mary's shoes.
0:04:29 > 0:04:35And to think about the next few months that this family are facing.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38Detectives have collected nearly 400 statements over the course
0:04:38 > 0:04:41of their investigation and are asking for any witnesses
0:04:41 > 0:04:44to call Crimestoppers.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46For Kyle's family, time is of the essence.
0:04:46 > 0:04:50Just come forward and say where Kyle's body is so that she can
0:04:50 > 0:04:52at least bury him before she goes.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55That is her biggest fear, that she's going to die before
0:04:55 > 0:05:02she finds out where Kyle is or what has happened to him.
0:05:02 > 0:05:03Anna Bailey reporting.
0:05:03 > 0:05:04Operators of Wales' largest shopping
0:05:04 > 0:05:07centre say retail sales have been buoyant over the festive season.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09More than 1 million shoppers a week have been visiting
0:05:09 > 0:05:11the St David's Centre in Cardiff, with retailers saying they're
0:05:11 > 0:05:13holding up well against online competition.
0:05:13 > 0:05:15This year, we have had a fantastic year.
0:05:15 > 0:05:18Sales have been in line with last year as well,
0:05:18 > 0:05:19sales and customer visits.
0:05:19 > 0:05:22We have had up to 1 million customers a week, spending ?2
0:05:22 > 0:05:25million per day, so we are really pleased with that and also
0:05:25 > 0:05:30with online competition, our customers have been using click

0:05:45 > 0:05:48It shows Signor Foresti - an Italian racing driver -
0:05:48 > 0:05:50who crashed his car at 150mph but escaped
0:05:50 > 0:05:51with only minor injuries.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53The press photograph was sold for ?45 to a volunteer
0:05:53 > 0:05:56from the Pendine Museum of Speed until the antiques dealer discovered
0:05:56 > 0:06:00where it would be going.
0:06:00 > 0:06:04We decided as a business to give the money back to the lady
0:06:04 > 0:06:06and donate the picture to the Museum of Speed.
0:06:06 > 0:06:09She had made the effort to come and buy it, that was the least
0:06:09 > 0:06:13we could do.
0:06:13 > 0:06:15And, secretly, I'm quite pleased not to have lost it.
0:06:15 > 0:06:18It is a nice, rare thing and I will be glad to go down
0:06:18 > 0:06:21to Pendine now and again to have a look at it.
