Amina Al-Jeffrey from Swansea claimed her father kept her locked | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
Now a UK court rules she's in peril and must be returned to Britain. | :00:10. | :00:20. | |
We are delighted. I can't tell you. My only concern is that I don't know | :00:21. | :00:27. | |
if Amina even knows. What are you really | :00:28. | :00:31. | |
eating this evening? Three years on from the horse meat | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
scandal, why Wales' food industry First day at work for | :00:35. | :00:37. | |
300 junior doctors. Tonight, why Wales could be | :00:38. | :00:44. | |
doing more to recruit And the family who scooped | :00:45. | :00:46. | |
?61 million on the lottery, two days after one of them | :00:47. | :00:55. | |
had cancer surgery. That's how a judge has described | :00:56. | :01:12. | |
Amina Al-Jeffrey, who, he says, must be brought back to Wales | :01:13. | :01:20. | |
from her father's The 21-year-old from Swansea has | :01:21. | :01:22. | |
claimed she's been mistreated and the High Court heard she had | :01:23. | :01:28. | |
been effectively "caged", with restrictions to where she could | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
go and what she could do. Tonight, her father has been told | :01:34. | :01:35. | |
he must facilitate her flight home. A photo sent to friends, | :01:36. | :01:41. | |
a metal mesh in the background. A 21-year-old with dual nationality, | :01:42. | :01:48. | |
British and Saudi Arabian. A young woman who says | :01:49. | :01:50. | |
she is being held against Amina Al-Jeffery went to a school | :01:51. | :01:53. | |
in Swansea until she was 16. Then, in 2012, her father | :01:54. | :01:59. | |
took her to the city He claimed it was to | :02:00. | :02:01. | |
save her life, to stop her going clubbing | :02:02. | :02:06. | |
and taking drugs. In the past year, she got in contact | :02:07. | :02:08. | |
again, pleading to leave Saudi Arabia, claiming | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
she was being deprived of food Her father admitted keeping her | :02:13. | :02:14. | |
in his apartment for her The dispute was brought before | :02:15. | :02:19. | |
the High Court heard in London. Royals arguing she was in dire need | :02:20. | :02:38. | |
of protection from our legal system. The judge initially felt that he | :02:39. | :02:44. | |
didn't have a lot of power over what went on in the Middle East. | :02:45. | :02:47. | |
Eventually deciding he had to intervene. The judge said... | :02:48. | :03:02. | |
My only concern is that I don't know if Amina even knows that | :03:03. | :03:12. | |
What I would really like to do is speak to | :03:13. | :03:19. | |
her and tell her what the judge said today. | :03:20. | :03:21. | |
What he has ordered to | :03:22. | :03:22. | |
The MP representing her part of Swansea has urged the | :03:23. | :03:28. | |
authorities to make sure today's ruling does make a difference. | :03:29. | :03:30. | |
It is important that the police and local | :03:31. | :03:32. | |
authorities are involved to secure her safety. | :03:33. | :03:36. | |
I hope very much she cameras a normal life in Swansea like everyone | :03:37. | :03:44. | |
else, with normal protections. And this case will mean that there is | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
not a green light so that other vulnerable people could be taken | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
abroad and held in captivity. For three hours today, the judge slowly, | :03:55. | :03:57. | |
cautiously but firmly explained his reasoning. Because Amina is both a | :03:58. | :04:04. | |
Saudi and British citizen, a citizenship in a UK is to mean | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
anything, they should mean help and protection from your own country. In | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
issuing this High Court order, yes told tet-mac's father to bring her | :04:13. | :04:18. | |
back to the UK by the 11th of September. -- he has told Amina 's. | :04:19. | :04:23. | |
What chance she'll return home to Wales from Saudi Arabia? | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
Earlier, I spoke to the BBC's diplomatic correspondent | :04:28. | :04:29. | |
James Robbins and began by asking him how much weight this | :04:30. | :04:32. | |
I think none of us knows, not least the Foreign Office, doesn't know | :04:33. | :04:41. | |
what attention the Saudi authorities will give to this. Relations with | :04:42. | :04:48. | |
Britain at the governmental level are regarded in Whitehall as being | :04:49. | :04:51. | |
extremely close. That is because Britain attaches enormous importance | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
to the role Saudi Arabia plays in, for instance, the fight against | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
so-called Islamic State and also the importance Britain attaches to the | :05:01. | :05:07. | |
immense scale of arms sales to Saudis in Britain, not least the | :05:08. | :05:11. | |
Eurofighter Typhoon and other weapons go with it. It is a | :05:12. | :05:14. | |
schizophrenic relationship because Britain is highly critical of Saudi | :05:15. | :05:21. | |
Arabia's human rights record. It recalls Saudi Arabia as a country of | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
concern. It is a very complicated relationship. How Saudi Arabia will | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
react is hard to say. It is important to stress that they will | :05:30. | :05:33. | |
not easily put any pressure on the ballot in this case if they think | :05:34. | :05:38. | |
that goes against what you might call traditional, hardline, Saudi | :05:39. | :05:47. | |
Arabian definitions of our father's right over his children. What | :05:48. | :05:51. | |
pressures can the UK Government put on Saudi Arabia? It is very | :05:52. | :05:56. | |
complicated. The Foreign Office, although they have not spoken | :05:57. | :05:59. | |
publicly, will do all that they can to try to bring this case to the | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
attention of the Saudi authorities, probably discreetly and behind the | :06:04. | :06:09. | |
scenes. They will be urging the Saudis to comply with this order and | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
make sure the father returns Amina within the deadline set by the | :06:15. | :06:20. | |
court. Having said that, I think there will be a realistic belief in | :06:21. | :06:23. | |
Whitehall that there is only so far that they can go in private, and so | :06:24. | :06:30. | |
far, that they can't have any expectations that the Saudis will | :06:31. | :06:33. | |
necessarily listen to them. Nevertheless, Britain is used to | :06:34. | :06:36. | |
making private representations in human rights cases and I think, | :06:37. | :06:39. | |
given the strength of what was said in the High Court, I am sure the | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
Foreign Office will do their utmost to try and get Amina savoured it on. | :06:45. | :06:49. | |
They call this privately very distressing case and have expended a | :06:50. | :06:52. | |
lot of effort and try to get home already. The BBC laws-mac diplomatic | :06:53. | :06:58. | |
correspondent. The Foreign Office has confirmed they have raised this | :06:59. | :07:01. | |
case with the Saudi ambassador in London and will continue to raise it | :07:02. | :07:08. | |
with the Saudi authorities. We will keep you posted. -- the BBC's | :07:09. | :07:10. | |
diplomatic respondent. Three years on from the horse meat | :07:11. | :07:13. | |
scandal, Wales' food and drink industry still faces a "real threat" | :07:14. | :07:16. | |
of exploitation by criminals. That's the warning from the head | :07:17. | :07:18. | |
of the National Food Crime Unit, who's told Wales Today | :07:19. | :07:21. | |
that the sector here is vulnerable to fraudsters who are looking | :07:22. | :07:23. | |
to short-change consumers Carwyn Jones has this | :07:24. | :07:25. | |
exclusive report. When it comes to the food on our | :07:26. | :07:37. | |
plates, who can we trust? Welsh councils are promised more vigorous | :07:38. | :07:41. | |
food testing after horse meat was found in burgers. Is it beef or | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
horse? Three years ago, the world woke up | :07:46. | :07:47. | |
to a new type of crime. News that horse meat was used | :07:48. | :07:50. | |
as a substitute for beef in some products sold in the UK revealed | :07:51. | :07:53. | |
that consumers weren't In the wake of the scandal, | :07:54. | :07:55. | |
the National Food Crime Unit was launched to investigate fraud | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
within the food industry. The head of the orgainsation has | :08:00. | :08:02. | |
told Wales Today that the scale There always be criminals will look | :08:03. | :08:14. | |
to exploit whatever check and balance is in place. In Wales, we | :08:15. | :08:18. | |
are talking about a 5 billion plus industry. In terms of its turnover. | :08:19. | :08:25. | |
Employing some 250,000 people in Wales. It is an important industry. | :08:26. | :08:29. | |
But where there are large profits, there is also the possibility of | :08:30. | :08:33. | |
making money criminally. If we don't deal with this in the next two or | :08:34. | :08:37. | |
three years and get on top of it, organised crime could become a key | :08:38. | :08:42. | |
feature. Food crime comes in many guises. There's substitution. For | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
example, making lamb with cheaper meat. Diversion. Animal waste is | :08:48. | :08:51. | |
used in products for human consumption. Misrepresentation. | :08:52. | :08:57. | |
Selling Argentinian meat is Welsh beef. And adulteration. Adding | :08:58. | :09:01. | |
methanol to vodka to increase volumes. | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
Earlier this year, North Wales Trading Standards took | :09:06. | :09:07. | |
100 samples of food from takeaways, supermarkets, retaillers | :09:08. | :09:09. | |
The results are in and the findings are stark. | :09:10. | :09:15. | |
There was an issue in nearly half of the samples. There were problems | :09:16. | :09:20. | |
with the labelling itself, some not saying something, or finding things | :09:21. | :09:27. | |
in the food that should not have been in there. | :09:28. | :09:30. | |
Food crime doesn't just mean consumers are getting ripped off. | :09:31. | :09:33. | |
It can also distort the market and undemine legitmate businesses, | :09:34. | :09:35. | |
Talgarth Bakery supplies 150 shops and food outlets with pies, | :09:36. | :09:39. | |
It's a business built on consumer trust. | :09:40. | :09:47. | |
It is key to us that everybody else a sickly comes in line, really. It | :09:48. | :09:54. | |
is encouraging that anything you buy from a customer's right of use going | :09:55. | :09:59. | |
to be safe. And that they can have confidence in what they buy and in | :10:00. | :10:00. | |
all it is coming from. The National Food Crime Unit says | :10:01. | :10:03. | |
it's still in the early stages of understanding the implications | :10:04. | :10:06. | |
of food fraud, but believes it could represent a ?1 billion | :10:07. | :10:08. | |
loss to the UK economy. The challenge is making | :10:09. | :10:11. | |
sure the food we eat For a small party, they have | :10:12. | :10:13. | |
an awful lot of disagreements. Battles about who runs Ukip | :10:14. | :10:21. | |
at a Welsh and UK level have rumbled on today and Nathan Gill, | :10:22. | :10:24. | |
the party's leader in Wales, Our political correspondent | :10:25. | :10:27. | |
James Williams is here. Another rollercoaster | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
day for Nathan Gill? Yes. He has had both good and bad | :10:32. | :10:42. | |
news today. The good news is that a group of Ukip party chairs in Wales, | :10:43. | :10:47. | |
12 in all, have written this letter to the party's ruling committee, the | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
NEC, calling on them to retract their threat to expel Mason Gill | :10:52. | :10:57. | |
from the party. The NEC has given him until Sunday to stand down from | :10:58. | :11:00. | |
one of those two elected positions but this is a letter of support for | :11:01. | :11:04. | |
Nathan Gill's stands that he should stay on as an Assembly Member and | :11:05. | :11:07. | |
member of the European Parliament. That is the good news. The bad news | :11:08. | :11:11. | |
is that Steven Woolfe, the candidate for leadership of the party | :11:12. | :11:16. | |
nationally, his campaign he was running, has been kicked out of the | :11:17. | :11:19. | |
leadership race for missing the application deadline. And so in an | :11:20. | :11:24. | |
Apple -- in what was already a fraught battle in the battle for | :11:25. | :11:30. | |
control this party, Nathan Gill has lost a key ally and is in a more | :11:31. | :11:38. | |
vulnerable position. The body which represents Welsh | :11:39. | :11:40. | |
councils has defended the help local authorities here have given | :11:41. | :11:43. | |
to Syrian refugees after a committee of MPs said many | :11:44. | :11:45. | |
aren't doing enough. The Home Affairs Select Committee | :11:46. | :11:47. | |
found five of the 22 Welsh councils had taken a total of 78 | :11:48. | :11:50. | |
refugees by March. But the Welsh Local Government | :11:51. | :11:56. | |
Association says around 100 more have been settled | :11:57. | :11:58. | |
here since the figures were calculated, and more councils | :11:59. | :12:02. | |
are ready to receive refugees. The number of British visitors | :12:03. | :12:07. | |
making overnight trips to Wales fell slightly in the 12 months to April, | :12:08. | :12:12. | |
according to the Great That's compared to a 3.8% increase | :12:13. | :12:14. | |
in visits across Britain. But the amount of money visitors | :12:15. | :12:22. | |
spent in Wales went up by nearly 2% The Welsh Government says | :12:23. | :12:25. | |
the increase in expenditure shows tourism in Wales is | :12:26. | :12:31. | |
"performing strongly". Wales could be doing more to recruit | :12:32. | :12:35. | |
and retain junior doctors. That's according to | :12:36. | :12:38. | |
the Medical Director of Cardiff and Vale University Health Board, | :12:39. | :12:40. | |
who believes Wales has Latest figures show there are more | :12:41. | :12:42. | |
than 300 unfilled trainee But in Cardiff today, | :12:43. | :12:48. | |
hundreds of junior doctors started work | :12:49. | :12:54. | |
at the University Hospital of Wales. Nicola Smith went to find out | :12:55. | :12:56. | |
what brought them here. This is where the children | :12:57. | :13:03. | |
have their blood taken. It's Matthew Jones' first day | :13:04. | :13:08. | |
in the paediatric unit at the University Hospital of Wales | :13:09. | :13:11. | |
in Cardiff and he's getting a tour He's worked in Wales and England | :13:12. | :13:14. | |
but has chosen to train I graduated from Cardiff University | :13:15. | :13:26. | |
and I thought I would come back to the hospital that I know reasonably | :13:27. | :13:31. | |
well. It is a very because that. It is a trauma centre. It is certainly | :13:32. | :13:36. | |
somewhere where you were learn an awful lot of medicine or so Julie | :13:37. | :13:37. | |
and a lovely city to live in. And for all those reasons, | :13:38. | :13:42. | |
Cardiff and Vale University Health Board has very few problems | :13:43. | :13:44. | |
with the recruitment - But, elsewhere, the picture | :13:45. | :13:46. | |
is rather different. Figures provided by | :13:47. | :13:50. | |
the Wales Deanery last month show that recently, | :13:51. | :13:51. | |
almost a quarter of posts were unfilled in the health boards | :13:52. | :13:53. | |
that cover both west and North The medical director here says | :13:54. | :13:56. | |
it's hard to establish whether the problems with the junior | :13:57. | :14:03. | |
doctors' contracts in England has boosted those applying | :14:04. | :14:06. | |
to train in Wales this year. We can always do more. My | :14:07. | :14:11. | |
perspective is that I think we should be pushing very hard what | :14:12. | :14:14. | |
Wales can offer because I do believe it is a great deal to offer. We have | :14:15. | :14:18. | |
a lot to offer in Cardiff, as do my other medical director colleagues | :14:19. | :14:19. | |
across the rest of Wales. He's from Shanghai, and after | :14:20. | :14:24. | |
studying at Cambridge University and Kings College London, | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
he told me there were several things Firstly, my seniors told me Cardiff | :14:30. | :14:32. | |
and Wales in general had a good teaching programme for junior | :14:33. | :14:36. | |
doctors, everyone is supportive. Secondly, at the time, the Junior | :14:37. | :14:45. | |
Doctor contract was quite a concern for doctors in England. I think that | :14:46. | :14:49. | |
is a big reason for why many of us chose Wales this year. Dudley, I was | :14:50. | :14:54. | |
feeling quite adventurous. I have never been to Cardiff and Wales, why | :14:55. | :14:56. | |
not come here and explore? A total of 315 junior doctors have | :14:57. | :15:02. | |
now started in Cardiff and Vale They will have chosen Wales | :15:03. | :15:05. | |
for a variety of reasons. What's clear is the need - | :15:06. | :15:08. | |
and the desire - Much more to come | :15:09. | :15:11. | |
before seven o'clock. A nice problem to have - | :15:12. | :15:14. | |
how to spend a ?61 million It's only just sinking in for this | :15:15. | :15:17. | |
family from Monmouthshire. And not much luck on the | :15:18. | :15:24. | |
weather front recently. Brighter today but windy with | :15:25. | :15:31. | |
blustery showers. Is there any sign of summer? | :15:32. | :15:33. | |
The battle for the Labour leadership has been somewhat bitter so far, | :15:34. | :15:40. | |
with supporters of Jeremy Corbyn and Owen Smith trading | :15:41. | :15:42. | |
But tomorrow night, the two men will debate with each other | :15:43. | :15:47. | |
Ahead of that showdown in Cardiff, our political reporter Cemlyn Davies | :15:48. | :15:55. | |
has been to meet party members in Swansea Bay with very different | :15:56. | :15:57. | |
views on the right man to take Labour forward. | :15:58. | :16:04. | |
Who should lead Labour? That is the question dividing party members as | :16:05. | :16:10. | |
the political sands shift yet again. Year in Swansea Bay, as across the | :16:11. | :16:15. | |
country, this disagreement over the direction of the party is heading | :16:16. | :16:20. | |
in. The Swansea East constituency Labour Party recently passed a | :16:21. | :16:22. | |
motion of confidence in the current leader. And his local members | :16:23. | :16:27. | |
believe that he should keep his job. I am a single mother, just left | :16:28. | :16:31. | |
university with over ?40,000 in debt. He voices everything that is | :16:32. | :16:39. | |
wrong in society that affects me, really. He speaks a lot of people in | :16:40. | :16:47. | |
terms of workers' rights, equality, justice, and listening to people who | :16:48. | :16:50. | |
otherwise haven't felt they have been listened to. Jeremy Corbyn has | :16:51. | :16:54. | |
only been in the job since last September when he was elected with | :16:55. | :16:58. | |
an overwhelming majority. His policies include reintroducing the | :16:59. | :17:02. | |
50p top rate income taxonomies over ?150,000. He is also against | :17:03. | :17:09. | |
renewing the UK's nuclear weapons. Further along Swansea Bay, local | :17:10. | :17:14. | |
Labour delegates Risley bashed -- recently passed a motion of | :17:15. | :17:19. | |
no-confidence in Jeremy Corbyn and his party members believe it is time | :17:20. | :17:25. | |
for a new. I work at the steelworks. Jamie was straight down here to give | :17:26. | :17:30. | |
me support a few months ago. -- Jeremy. Unless we are in Government, | :17:31. | :17:35. | |
which don't think he can deliver for us, he can't change anything. It is | :17:36. | :17:38. | |
all very well going to Labour heartland, but we need to win seats | :17:39. | :17:43. | |
of the Conservatives in 2020 if we want to get that power and change | :17:44. | :17:48. | |
people's lives. This is the man hoping to replace Jeremy Corbyn. | :17:49. | :17:53. | |
Owen Smith is the MP for Pontypridd. He wants to readjust the 50p rate | :17:54. | :18:00. | |
for income tax. But he is in favour of renewing Trident. This entire | :18:01. | :18:05. | |
process is further expose the deep divisions within Labour, from | :18:06. | :18:07. | |
grassroots members to elected politicians. How worrying time as | :18:08. | :18:13. | |
this for Labour? Incredibly worrying. What should've been a huge | :18:14. | :18:20. | |
success, the Tory party dealing each other apart, coming out of Europe, | :18:21. | :18:25. | |
Labour should have been taking on the Conservatives, who are racked | :18:26. | :18:29. | |
with a huge amount of internal strife will stop yet they have | :18:30. | :18:31. | |
managed to get through it and we have created our own. It is very | :18:32. | :18:35. | |
important, whoever wins the leadership on this, that we then | :18:36. | :18:38. | |
pull together to make sure we're doing things to help other people, | :18:39. | :18:44. | |
not internally fighting. As Labour members here and across the UK | :18:45. | :18:48. | |
decided who to elect as their leader, it is now down to the two | :18:49. | :18:51. | |
contenders to get their message across. Jeremy Corbyn and Don Smith | :18:52. | :18:56. | |
will go head-to-head in the first hustings tomorrow. The eventual | :18:57. | :19:00. | |
winner will be announced on the 24th of September. | :19:01. | :19:04. | |
Kate Morgan is at the Eisteddfod for us this evening. | :19:05. | :19:08. | |
The competitions are ongoing in the pavilion to find the best musician. | :19:09. | :19:20. | |
But aside from music and the arts, the Eisteddfod is also | :19:21. | :19:23. | |
Today, it was the turn of Brexit, and one leading academic says | :19:24. | :19:27. | |
the Welsh Government's response to Wales leaving the EU has been | :19:28. | :19:30. | |
Speaking here on the Maes this morning, Professor Richard Wyn Jones | :19:31. | :19:34. | |
described it as a serious crisis for public finances here. | :19:35. | :19:39. | |
It comes as many businesses have told us they're | :19:40. | :19:41. | |
Nine years ago, this would then gave up a job to start a run company. The | :19:42. | :19:54. | |
Welsh Language Commissioner heart of it. In the products and business. It | :19:55. | :19:58. | |
was European funding that enabled her to take the first steps to | :19:59. | :20:03. | |
running a shop and now employing a small team of staff. After Brexit, | :20:04. | :20:08. | |
they are worried that the future. We don't have major industries and big | :20:09. | :20:10. | |
companies and factories to give jobs to people. We had to create our own | :20:11. | :20:20. | |
jobs. So, yes, you know, I was a big Remain campaign because I really | :20:21. | :20:23. | |
think that we need that money in Wales. Curfew is not without | :20:24. | :20:28. | |
substance. This morning, packed audience was told that with Wales | :20:29. | :20:34. | |
being a major beneficiary of EU money, there is radical economic | :20:35. | :20:38. | |
uncertainty ahead. This is a really serious crisis for the Welsh | :20:39. | :20:42. | |
Government. It is a serious crisis for Welsh public finances. Wales is | :20:43. | :20:49. | |
a major net beneficiary of EU money. That is going to go. We don't know | :20:50. | :20:54. | |
what will follow from it. But they seem to be proceeding as if killing | :20:55. | :20:59. | |
London, well, we just want to keep the same amount of money coming to | :21:00. | :21:04. | |
Wales, is a realistic prospect. The Welsh Government seen at replacing | :21:05. | :21:07. | |
EU funding is a top priority but it is unclear whether that money will | :21:08. | :21:11. | |
come from. So far, the UK Government is not made any promises and if it | :21:12. | :21:15. | |
doesn't, will the Welsh governance step in and can't afford to? That is | :21:16. | :21:19. | |
already weighing on the mind of this charity, that helps promote the | :21:20. | :21:23. | |
Welsh language. After request from parents, a grant from the EU allowed | :21:24. | :21:29. | |
them to set up a Welsh line is child yourself was. It employs 70 people | :21:30. | :21:34. | |
and doesn't need funding, but organisers say that without the | :21:35. | :21:36. | |
initial funding, the service would not exist. -- Welsh language | :21:37. | :21:43. | |

are fluent Welsh speakers have their opportunity to speak it locally. | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
What have a career where they can speak in Welsh. Tonight, a | :21:55. | :22:00. | |
spokesperson for the Welsh Government said the First Minister | :22:01. | :22:03. | |
and Cabinet were committed to getting the best outcomes for Wales | :22:04. | :22:07. | |
following Brexit, adding that they were seeking a cast-iron commitment | :22:08. | :22:10. | |
that bills would not lose a penny of that you money budgeted to it up to | :22:11. | :22:17. | |
2020. The Welsh Language Commissioner has to make complaint | :22:18. | :22:21. | |
to the BBC following a tweet sent by a researcher. | :22:22. | :22:28. | |
a contributor to appear on Radio 5 Live to talk about "why the Welsh | :22:29. | :22:32. | |
The station has apologised and said it was for a "broad discussion | :22:33. | :22:36. | |
Meri Huws said the message was verging on racism. | :22:37. | :22:39. | |
Asking those states of questions about the language which is the | :22:40. | :22:43. | |
language which is alive and is our language, one of them in Wales, is | :22:44. | :22:46. | |
not appropriate. In other contexts, it would definitely be considered | :22:47. | :22:47. | |
racist. And that's all from the | :22:48. | :22:49. | |
Eisteddfod tonight. A family from Monmouth say they're | :22:50. | :22:52. | |
"living the dream" after winning more than ?61 million | :22:53. | :22:57. | |
on the EuroMillions lottery. The Davies' scooped the prize | :22:58. | :22:59. | |
by matching all seven numbers in Friday's draw, | :23:00. | :23:02. | |
two days after one of them Our reporter, Jordan Davies - | :23:03. | :23:04. | |

many of us would no But for the Davies', | :23:21. | :23:24. | |
there's no need, as they've all won. Mother, sisters and partners are now | :23:25. | :23:35. | |
more than ?61 million richer after 23-year-old sales | :23:36. | :23:37. | |
exec Stephanie bought the ticket at the last minute | :23:38. | :23:39. | |
from a garage in Monmouth. As soon as I found out, I was | :23:40. | :23:48. | |
shaking, crying, I didn't know what to do. I went straight to my partner | :23:49. | :23:52. | |
Steve, with the iPad and ticket on one hand, and in my mouth, crying, | :23:53. | :23:57. | |
just to get into to double-check it. Because we didn't feel was real. | :23:58. | :24:00. | |
And today the family explained the win had come at a particularly | :24:01. | :24:06. | |
poignant time, after Sonia Davies was given the all clear | :24:07. | :24:08. | |
after a cancer operation in Florida last Wednesday. | :24:09. | :24:11. | |
We just thought, why not buy a lottery ticket? If ever it happens, | :24:12. | :24:16. | |
it will be no. Not really thinking that it would. -- it will be now. | :24:17. | :24:20. | |
APPLAUSE There's no rest for a lottery winner | :24:21. | :24:26. | |

student Courtney, what's the first I stupidly said I was going to buy | :24:30. | :24:36. | |
myself an electric toothbrush because I never had the money to buy | :24:37. | :24:41. | |
one, spending ?50 on a toothbrush. That is my first comment and I | :24:42. | :24:47. | |
haven't lifted down yet. -- lived it down. | :24:48. | :24:48. | |
Even lottery winners have to brush their teeth. | :24:49. | :24:52. | |
They say good things come in threes - succesful treatment and now | :24:53. | :24:55. | |
Let's see if Derek's numbers have come up on the weather charts. | :24:56. | :25:01. | |
If only. I would be happy with some nice summer when there might well. | :25:02. | :25:10. | |
No chance of that just now. It has been brighter today but not great | :25:11. | :25:14. | |
for August. Sunshine and showers in Tenby, rainbow as well. Lastly, | :25:15. | :25:18. | |
rough seas off the coast of Anglesey with gale force winds and gusts of | :25:19. | :25:25. | |

Scotland and move away towards Norway tomorrow. Tonight, it stays | :25:34. | :25:39. | |
windy, especially on the coast. There will be some dry weather and | :25:40. | :25:42. | |
some or showers rifling through as well. Heavy showers, for example, in | :25:43. | :25:48. | |
mid Wales. A fresher night with temperatures in the mid-teens. Here | :25:49. | :25:53. | |
is the picture tomorrow morning. Less windy at this stage but still | :25:54. | :25:57. | |
noticeably easy. Some places stay dry with sunshine in Wrexham, but | :25:58. | :26:03. | |
not dry everywhere. Showers. The round, as you can see here. One to | :26:04. | :26:10. | |
heavy ones as well. Mixed bag tomorrow. You might catch a shower | :26:11. | :26:13. | |
or two but there will be dry weather, patches of blue sky and | :26:14. | :26:17. | |
sunshine. If you're lucky, you might avoid the showers. Colour and | :26:18. | :26:21. | |
fresher than today, highs of 17-20dC. If you're going to the | :26:22. | :26:27. | |
National Eisteddfod in Abergavenny tomorrow, I would not rule out a | :26:28. | :26:32. | |
shower. But most of the day, dry and cloudy at times, not as wind | :26:33. | :26:36. | |
yesterday. Tomorrow evening, any showers fade away to leave as all | :26:37. | :26:39. | |
with the dry and clear night. And cooler, down to 10 Celsius in parts | :26:40. | :26:46. | |
of Powys. Better on Friday. Worked to showers here and there, otherwise | :26:47. | :26:50. | |
dry with sunny spells and feeling warmer with lighter winds. The | :26:51. | :26:55. | |
weekend is at bit up and down. Someone sunshine. A little rain and | :26:56. | :26:58. | |
drizzle and planning unit for a while. In more detail, nice weather | :26:59. | :27:04. | |
likely on Saturday. Fine and warm. But it might dampen Maki later on in | :27:05. | :27:09. | |
the day. Sunday, dull and damp start with misty, low cloud but try and | :27:10. | :27:12. | |
