Welcome to Wales Today. Our top stories: | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
A media scrum at Cardiff Crown Court for the retrial for rape | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
of former Wales international footballer Ched Evans. | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
Your council, the services we use and their future - | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
tonight the latest attempt at reform. | :00:15. | :00:22. | |
It is a public service. The public is entitled to know that we are | :00:23. | :00:28. | |
actually trying to deliver the best service. You can only do that if you | :00:29. | :00:31. | |
are talking to each other. Another day and another Welsh | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
football coach is fired. This time, Cardiff City sack | :00:35. | :00:36. | |
Paul Trollope after less than It has been their worst start to a | :00:37. | :00:38. | |
season for more than a decade. And we've been to Pontypridd | :00:39. | :00:48. | |
as the Conservatives claim the Welsh Government mismanaged | :00:49. | :00:50. | |
?4 billion of EU grants intended The retrial of former Wales | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
international footballer Ched Evans Evans is accused of raping a woman | :00:54. | :01:12. | |
after a night out in Rhyl in 2011. He denies the offence | :01:13. | :01:18. | |
and was in court today having won an appeal against his original | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
conviction back in 2012. The jury was told the alleged victim | :01:23. | :01:25. | |
remembered practically nothing of the night and was | :01:26. | :01:29. | |
too drunk to consent. Supported once again by his partner, | :01:30. | :01:43. | |
Ched Evans is back in court to try to clear his name once and for all. | :01:44. | :01:50. | |
He started his professional career at Manchester city in 2002. 13 Wales | :01:51. | :01:57. | |
caps followed. In 2009 he signed for Sheffield United for ?3 million. But | :01:58. | :02:05. | |
in 2012 that career pause. He and a fellow footballer were charged and | :02:06. | :02:09. | |
stood trial for rape. The jury at Caernarfon Crown Court acquitted the | :02:10. | :02:14. | |
other player but found Ched Evans guilty. He served half of a | :02:15. | :02:20. | |
five-year sentence. But new evidence emerged. His conviction was quashed. | :02:21. | :02:27. | |
A retrial was ordered. Ched Evans is extremely grateful that the Court of | :02:28. | :02:30. | |
Appeal has ruled that his conviction for rape was unsafe and should be | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
quashed. For the first time in four years, Ched Evans is playing | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
football once again with the League 1 side Chesterfield. There is no | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
prospect of Ched Evans going back to jail. He has already served a | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
custodial sentence as part of that first trial but he has always | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
maintained his innocence in all of this and that this retrial over the | :02:52. | :02:55. | |
next two weeks he will hope the jury will agree. It is the prosecution's | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
case that after a night out in May 2011, click on McDonald took a woman | :03:02. | :03:06. | |
back to a hotel to have sex but the court was told today that Ched Evans | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
also had sex with the woman in that hotel room. It is alleged she was | :03:11. | :03:14. | |
too drunk to be able to consent to sex with Mr Evans. Prosecution said | :03:15. | :03:23. | |
"We submit that she was so intoxicated, for whatever reason, | :03:24. | :03:27. | |
that she did not know what was happening. Sex without consent is | :03:28. | :03:30. | |
rape. She remembers practically nothing of the events of that | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
night." The prosecution also told the jury that although Ched Evans | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
steel is a well-known footballer, they should put aside any media | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
commentary or the views of anyone else during this retrial. The court | :03:44. | :03:48. | |
heard that some comments, especially those made online, were one-sided | :03:49. | :03:49. | |
and often unhelpful. Councils here will be | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
forced to work together, pooling their resources | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
with neighbouring authorities, to provide key services | :03:56. | :03:58. | |
like education and social care. This is the latest attempt at reform | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
after the Welsh Government dropped plans to redraw the map by cutting | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
the existing 22 councils Here's our political editor | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
Nick Servini. Regional partnerships don't sound | :04:09. | :04:22. | |
particularly dramatic but this would be a fundamental change. Big | :04:23. | :04:28. | |
spending services like social care, educational improvement, planning, | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
economic development and transport would be shared. Collaboration has | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
happened before but it has been done on a voluntary basis. The difference | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
now is that for the first time councillors will be forced to work | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
together. Even though the 22 councils would continue to exist, it | :04:45. | :04:49. | |
would mark the end of them being entirely self-contained bodies, able | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
to work independently. But there are concerns that adding a newly of | :04:54. | :05:01. | |
government would mean a lack of accountability, with confusion over | :05:02. | :05:04. | |
who is responsible for what. Local authorities work together in all | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
sorts of ways already. What we don't have is a systematic approach to | :05:09. | :05:12. | |
weight and we don't have an approach where local authorities know that | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
this is required of them. It is optional and it is very mixed. But | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
they do it and there is no suggestion this is somehow a new | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
tier of local government or you can't have accountability in it. One | :05:26. | :05:32. | |
of the big names is to help council's social services | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
departments to have better working relationships with hospitals. The | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
regional partnerships covering social care would mirror health | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
board boundaries with the aim of easing pressure on the NHS. | :05:42. | :05:44. | |
You cannot do this on the cheap to start it all off. | :05:45. | :05:47. | |
There are real efficiencies to be made about these organisations | :05:48. | :05:49. | |
working together, different social services departments working | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
But sometimes you just need that bridging money, | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
that finance, and we have got to make sure the Welsh Government | :05:59. | :06:01. | |
understands we may have to put up some money at the front | :06:02. | :06:04. | |
The last attempt at reorganising councils failed. | :06:05. | :06:10. | |
Are today's plans going to fare any better? | :06:11. | :06:16. | |
It was a striking feature of the last attempt which involves merging | :06:17. | :06:22. | |
local authorities that it was fiercely resisted right from the | :06:23. | :06:26. | |
start. This time around, the prospects are pretty good. Labour | :06:27. | :06:30. | |
does not have an overall majority. But a number of these policies were | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
very similar to the kind of things Plaid Cymru were talking about in | :06:36. | :06:39. | |
the Assembly campaign. They could get support there. And with the | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
councils themselves, this would not make -- involve major upheaval, a | :06:45. | :06:49. | |
major round of redundancies, and the 22, even though the door is open to | :06:50. | :06:54. | |
potentially some voluntary mergers, would continue to exist. But the | :06:55. | :06:58. | |
point about council reorganisation is that it can be deeply unpopular | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
with the grass roots party members around the country and none of the | :07:04. | :07:06. | |
parties are going to want to be involved in that at the moment | :07:07. | :07:10. | |
because guess what we have got in the spring of next year, council | :07:11. | :07:11. | |
elections. Thank you very much. A 33-year-old man from Cardiff has | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
been charged with six terrorism offences, including membership | :07:16. | :07:19. | |
of so-called Islamic State. Samata Ullah was arrested last | :07:20. | :07:22. | |
Tuesday by the Met Police Counter Terrorism Command supported | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
by the Wales Extremism Two houses in the city were searched | :07:26. | :07:27. | |
as part of the investigation. An employment tribunal has heard | :07:28. | :07:46. | |
that a former managing director of a Welsh food company referred | :07:47. | :07:48. | |
to a transgender employee as "it" and said she wasn't wanted | :07:49. | :07:51. | |
in the organisation. Chris Morton denies making | :07:52. | :07:54. | |
the comments while at His former head of Human | :07:55. | :07:56. | |
Resources Jackie Atkinson has accused him of unfairly | :07:57. | :08:07. | |
dismissing her after she criticised his behaviour in relation to two | :08:08. | :08:09. | |
members of staff who can't be named After just five months in the job, | :08:10. | :08:12. | |
Cardiff City have sacked their head The Bluebirds are second from bottom | :08:13. | :08:18. | |
in the Championship after only This has been the club's worst start | :08:19. | :08:23. | |
to a season in over a decade. Our reporter Ben Price is live | :08:24. | :08:29. | |
at the Cardiff City Stadium Sports fans watching tonight might | :08:30. | :08:40. | |
find it hard to recall a time quite like this in Welsh football. Paul | :08:41. | :08:45. | |
Trollope became the third Welsh club site manager to be sacked. He was | :08:46. | :08:50. | |
brought into the club back in May to replace Russell Slade but after just | :08:51. | :08:54. | |
two wins in the league this season, the club decided it was time for him | :08:55. | :09:00. | |
to go. Cardiff City is a club with big expectations. The owner Vincent | :09:01. | :09:04. | |
Tan wants them back in the Premier League as soon as possible so | :09:05. | :09:07. | |
whoever comes here next as manager will have a mammoth sized task on | :09:08. | :09:09. | |
will have a mammoth sized task on their hands. | :09:10. | :09:16. | |
It has been three seasons since Cardiff City rubbed shoulders with | :09:17. | :09:21. | |
the elite but a return to the Premier League is all but a distant | :09:22. | :09:26. | |
dream. It was all change once again at Cardiff City at the start of the | :09:27. | :09:31. | |
season. " Trollope, once a coach at the club he was soon handed the top | :09:32. | :09:36. | |
job back in May. This is a club with big expectations and so an eighth | :09:37. | :09:41. | |
place finish last year was not enough to satisfy the bosses. The | :09:42. | :09:44. | |
new head coach promised to deliver the goods. We are going to try and | :09:45. | :09:49. | |
hit the ground running, we are going to try and give the fans a team they | :09:50. | :09:53. | |
are proud of and proud to support. But that has not quite happened. | :09:54. | :09:59. | |
They are in a shocking position, second from bottom in the | :10:00. | :10:07. | |
Championship, they have only scored in a couple of matches. It is not | :10:08. | :10:11. | |
look like a man or manager who could turn things around so the club had | :10:12. | :10:15. | |
to react. Despite very little activity in the summer transfer | :10:16. | :10:19. | |
window, some may argue the current team has enough experience to get | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
themselves back up the table. It has been a tumultuous few years for the | :10:24. | :10:26. | |
bluebirds faithful, both on and off the field. They have been fallouts | :10:27. | :10:32. | |
and protests over changes to club colours and other big decisions. It | :10:33. | :10:37. | |
has left many fans feeling fed up. We have got a lack of experience | :10:38. | :10:42. | |
within the football world on the board, we have got people who are | :10:43. | :10:49. | |
good financial backgrounds but no football experience and that is | :10:50. | :10:52. | |
proved in the way we were rebranded. I think the coach has got a lot to | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
do with the result so something has got to be had by him. With an | :10:57. | :11:01. | |
international break this weekend, Cardiff have ten days to find a | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
replacement. The question is, who will be ready for such a challenge? | :11:06. | :11:07. | |
The question is, who will be ready for such a challenge? | :11:08. | :11:12. | |
Unlike Swansea City, Cardiff City are yet to name their replacement | :11:13. | :11:18. | |
manager. There has been quite a bit of speculation. The bookies | :11:19. | :11:22. | |
favourite is Neil Warnock, a man with a lot of experience in the | :11:23. | :11:27. | |
championship. He has also taken close to the Premier League. But | :11:28. | :11:31. | |
this is a situation we will have to watch closely over the next few | :11:32. | :11:32. | |
days. Much more to come before | :11:33. | :11:34. | |
seven o'clock: Frank Kitt has benefitted | :11:35. | :11:36. | |
from talking therapy but mental health charities say the waiting | :11:37. | :11:39. | |
lists are too long. When people do get access | :11:40. | :11:42. | |
to psychological therapies early, there is a reduction in the use | :11:43. | :11:44. | |
of prescriptions, a reduction Six members of staff have been | :11:45. | :11:47. | |
suspended at a mental health unit The action was taken | :11:48. | :12:03. | |
at Bryn Hesketh Unit after concerns were raised by another member | :12:04. | :12:07. | |
of staff over some Chris Dearden is in | :12:08. | :12:09. | |
our Bangor newsroom. The unit is run by the Betsi | :12:10. | :12:23. | |
Cadwaladr Health Board. It said it acted quickly when these concerns | :12:24. | :12:28. | |
came to light last week. It has not given as much detail about what the | :12:29. | :12:32. | |
problem is. A member of staff came forward with concerns about the | :12:33. | :12:36. | |
quality of care last week. The health board says it has reacted to | :12:37. | :12:40. | |
that, it has followed all the official guidelines on how it deals | :12:41. | :12:45. | |
with a case like this. It has also called in an independent outside | :12:46. | :12:48. | |
investigator and suspended six members of staff, although it | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
describes those suspensions as a neutral act. The unit is one of the | :12:54. | :12:57. | |
places where staff and patients were transferred to back in 2013 when | :12:58. | :13:00. | |
they were problems with another psychiatric ward. These | :13:01. | :13:07. | |
investigations are not connected at all, this is completely separate, | :13:08. | :13:10. | |
but they have still been calls from the Welsh Conservatives for some | :13:11. | :13:15. | |
reassurances in this case, firstly to people in North Wales that the | :13:16. | :13:19. | |
mental health service is being well-run, but also patients and | :13:20. | :13:22. | |
relatives at the unit that there would be any disruption while this | :13:23. | :13:27. | |
investigation is going on. Thank you very much. We will have more on this | :13:28. | :13:29. | |
during the course of the evening. One in four of us will suffer some | :13:30. | :13:34. | |
kind of mental health issue during our lives but when it comes | :13:35. | :13:37. | |
to getting psychological help people That's the view of a new coalition | :13:38. | :13:40. | |
of mental health charities. We Need to Talk Wales says half | :13:41. | :13:45. | |
of all people wait more than three months before their first | :13:46. | :13:49. | |
talking therapy session. He suffered from severe | :13:50. | :13:50. | |
depression and anxiety. At times he thought | :13:51. | :13:58. | |
about ending his life. Frank believes talking therapy | :13:59. | :14:01. | |
in the form of cognitive behavioural therapy changed his thinking | :14:02. | :14:05. | |
and saved his life. If I hadn't had that timely | :14:06. | :14:09. | |
intervention and a considerable amount of cognitive behavioural | :14:10. | :14:15. | |
therapy sessions, I don't think I would be here today | :14:16. | :14:20. | |
because I think that gradual decline into a depressive state, | :14:21. | :14:24. | |
I probably would have One in four of us will experience | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
some kind of mental health issue during our lifetimes and talking | :14:30. | :14:37. | |
therapies are widely seen as one of the most effective ways | :14:38. | :14:40. | |
to treat conditions such Earlier today, a new coalition | :14:41. | :14:43. | |
representing mental health charities Those behind it say all patients | :14:44. | :14:51. | |
should have access to talking It makes economic sense to do it | :14:52. | :14:57. | |
because it is going to cost the health service more if we don't | :14:58. | :15:03. | |
see people in a timely fashion. What research has shown is that | :15:04. | :15:06. | |
when people get access to psychological therapies early, | :15:07. | :15:09. | |
there is a reduction in the use of prescriptions, hospital | :15:10. | :15:12. | |
stays and GP visits, so it does make economic sense | :15:13. | :15:16. | |
to make it happen. The coalition has set | :15:17. | :15:19. | |
this target of 28 days. The Welsh Government has worked | :15:20. | :15:22. | |
on a new delivery plan and that has been done in partnership | :15:23. | :15:28. | |
with members of the coalition and people affected directly | :15:29. | :15:30. | |
by mental ill health as well. The new delivery plan will set | :15:31. | :15:34. | |
a target of 80% of people How soon before that | :15:35. | :15:38. | |
becomes a reality? The Minister will be launching this | :15:39. | :15:43. | |
delivery plan on World Mental Health Day, the 10th of October, | :15:44. | :15:47. | |
and we hope to see progress The cost of mental health problems | :15:48. | :15:50. | |
in Wales is estimated at ?7.2 billion a year | :15:51. | :15:55. | |
and prescriptions for The coalition warns if patients | :15:56. | :15:59. | |
continue to face long waits, the cost for Wales | :16:00. | :16:04. | |
will continue to rise. The Secretary of State for Wales has | :16:05. | :16:16. | |
launched a fierce attack on the Welsh Government's handling | :16:17. | :16:18. | |
of European Union funds Alun Cairns told the Conservative | :16:19. | :16:21. | |
Party conference in Birmingham that the Labour-run administration | :16:22. | :16:25. | |
in Cardiff had "mismanaged" grants Our Parliamentary Correspondent | :16:26. | :16:27. | |
David Cornock is at the conference Alun Cairns is very critical of the | :16:28. | :16:43. | |
way the EU funds have been spent in Wales but what he is not doing is | :16:44. | :16:48. | |
naming names. He won't tell us those projects he thinks have failed. | :16:49. | :16:52. | |
Instead he challenged us to go out and talk to people and to find out | :16:53. | :16:55. | |
whether they think they have got value for money, so that is what we | :16:56. | :16:57. | |
did. Restored to its former glory | :16:58. | :16:58. | |
and making a splash, the Pontypridd lido reopened last | :16:59. | :17:01. | |
year thanks in part to ?3 million And it is not the only part | :17:02. | :17:04. | |
of the town to get EU cash. Pontypridd, like much of Wales, | :17:05. | :17:09. | |
has received money for things like town centre regeneration, | :17:10. | :17:12. | |
improvements to its railway station The lido is now closed | :17:13. | :17:16. | |
for the winter but as politicians reflect on the summer's Brexit vote, | :17:17. | :17:22. | |
many are still asking why so many people in areas like this that have | :17:23. | :17:27. | |
qualified for European funding for so long decided to take | :17:28. | :17:31. | |
the plunge and vote to leave the EU. A big message of the Leave campaign | :17:32. | :17:37. | |
was there is no such But the Remain camp in Wales | :17:38. | :17:40. | |
used EU spending as one ?10 million for Pontypridd station, | :17:41. | :17:48. | |
the Church Village bypass. Pontypridd's AM made this video | :17:49. | :17:54. | |
listing EU backed projects, but the Welsh Secretary told | :17:55. | :17:58. | |
the Conservative conference today that the Leave vote in areas | :17:59. | :18:03. | |
like Pontypridd is in part down to Welsh Labour's handling | :18:04. | :18:06. | |
of the EU money. If you talk to people | :18:07. | :18:10. | |
in those communities, have they really felt an uplift | :18:11. | :18:12. | |
in their well-being, an uplift in their economic prosperity | :18:13. | :18:15. | |
because of the European aid? I would suggest the referendum | :18:16. | :18:19. | |
outcome tells you they didn't. Despite there being plenty of signs | :18:20. | :18:22. | |
like this in Rhondda Cynon Taff, People who live in the poverty | :18:23. | :18:28. | |
of the Valleys, as much as the money goes into these projects, | :18:29. | :18:36. | |
which is great, that I think once they get things sorted, | :18:37. | :18:40. | |
there will be more money for Wales. One Valleys Labour AM says | :18:41. | :18:52. | |
Alun Cairns is wrong to criticise You can't just put money | :18:53. | :18:56. | |
in for a short period of time They really are long-term projects | :18:57. | :19:03. | |
and it is not over yet. As Brexit gets closer, | :19:04. | :19:08. | |
the argument is now turning to the extent to which the UK | :19:09. | :19:14. | |
Government will deliver replacement funding and how that | :19:15. | :19:18. | |
funding will be spent. Well, also speaking at | :19:19. | :19:24. | |
the conference today was the leader of the Welsh Conservatives | :19:25. | :19:29. | |
Andrew RT Davies. Mr Davies reminded members here | :19:30. | :19:33. | |
that he had campaigned for Brexit - But his speech may be | :19:34. | :19:40. | |
remembered for other reasons. Conference, mark my words, we will | :19:41. | :19:47. | |
make breakfast...Brexit a success. That is one word that was not meant | :19:48. | :20:06. | |
to come out like that, was it? I will have a word with | :20:07. | :20:10. | |
the autocue at the back. Mark my words, plenty of food for | :20:11. | :20:23. | |
thought from the Welsh Conservative leader. | :20:24. | :20:31. | |
We are just getting news of a fire on a train in Caerphilly station. | :20:32. | :20:35. | |
The train was evacuated and crews were called around an hour ago. | :20:36. | :20:40. | |
National rail say it is causing delays of up to two hours and a real | :20:41. | :20:45. | |
replacement service will be available. We will bring you more on | :20:46. | :20:46. | |
this in our later bulletins. Every child in Wales | :20:47. | :20:50. | |
should be given the chance to play football, according | :20:51. | :20:52. | |
to the Assistant Wales Osian Roberts believes it's the only | :20:53. | :20:55. | |
way to develop another Gareth Bale or Aaron Ramsey and he's calling | :20:56. | :20:59. | |
for more investment in sport There are plans to install 100 | :21:00. | :21:02. | |
all-weather artificial But those who run children's clubs | :21:03. | :21:06. | |
say they are often Even at this level, football can be | :21:07. | :21:10. | |
an expensive business. And those at the top | :21:11. | :21:19. | |
of the game are warning, as a result, Wales could fail | :21:20. | :21:24. | |
to nurture future talent. Wales midfielder Joe Allen, | :21:25. | :21:29. | |
for one, says he has seen talent We had examples of kids in my team | :21:30. | :21:32. | |
at Swansea or even in the local teams and local clubs | :21:33. | :21:41. | |
in Pembrokeshire that had talent but it was difficult | :21:42. | :21:44. | |
for the families to provide That is another area, | :21:45. | :21:47. | |
that is what I am hoping that The FAW made ?3 million | :21:48. | :21:53. | |
through Wales' success in the Euros There are already plans to install | :21:54. | :22:00. | |
100 3G pitches across Wales by 2020. But running costs can be up | :22:01. | :22:08. | |
to ?50,000 a year. So some clubs can't | :22:09. | :22:13. | |
afford to use them. The 3G pitches, it is ?89, | :22:14. | :22:17. | |
that is four or five week's subs for us, and that is if we get subs, | :22:18. | :22:22. | |
because it's voluntary. A lot of them say, we'll give it | :22:23. | :22:26. | |
next week, and then we've Wales assistant manager | :22:27. | :22:29. | |
Osian Roberts has his own idea I was speaking recently | :22:30. | :22:35. | |
to our colleagues in Iceland where they give a ?150 voucher | :22:36. | :22:40. | |
to each child to spend on any sports that they want to get | :22:41. | :22:47. | |
involved in every year. You decide how you want to exercise | :22:48. | :22:50. | |
and be involved in sport but we will remove the obstacle | :22:51. | :22:54. | |
and that is what we have got to do. We have got to remove those | :22:55. | :22:57. | |
obstacles that deter children Sport Wales says while it can't help | :22:58. | :23:00. | |
clubs pay for the hire of pitches long term, it does provide grants | :23:01. | :23:07. | |
for equipment and training. The Welsh Government says it invests | :23:08. | :23:11. | |
more than ?20 million every year in sport to support ambitions | :23:12. | :23:16. | |
and that is allocated to all levels, You can see more on this story | :23:17. | :23:21. | |

grassroots football can help keep the Euros dream alive, | :23:30. | :23:33. | |
tonight at 10.40pm on BBC One Wales. In rugby, Sam Warburton has | :23:34. | :23:43. | |
undergone surgery for a fractured cheekbone today and is expected | :23:44. | :23:47. | |
to be out of action for two to four weeks, according | :23:48. | :23:51. | |
to the Cardiff Blues. He sustained the injury | :23:52. | :23:54. | |
after clashing heads with Josh Van der Flier during a defeat | :23:55. | :23:58. | |

store for the next couple of days. October is normally a wet month | :24:12. | :24:14. | |
but little if any rain Misty and cold in Llandrindod this | :24:15. | :24:21. | |
morning. But the cloud did lift | :24:22. | :24:32. | |
and break with a little Dry this evening and most | :24:33. | :24:36. | |
parts dry overnight. Just the odd spot of drizzle | :24:37. | :24:43. | |
on the hills. A few breaks in the cloud and milder | :24:44. | :24:47. | |
than last night with a breeze. Lowest temperatures, | :24:48. | :24:53. | |
nine, ten or 11 Celsius. Tomorrow's chart shows high pressure | :24:54. | :24:57. | |
over Norway and that means The high acting like a block, | :24:58. | :25:07. | |
keeping these fronts away from us. Here's the picture for | :25:08. | :25:16. | |
eight in the morning. A lot of cloud around but bright | :25:17. | :25:18. | |
in places with a breeze. So another dry day tomorrow | :25:19. | :25:25. | |
and during the day more More sunshine in the afternoon | :25:26. | :25:34. | |
than we saw today. Top temperatures | :25:35. | :25:44. | |
of 14 to 17 Celsius. A little cooler than today | :25:45. | :25:46. | |
and breezy with a moderate to fresh In Caerphilly tomorrow, | :25:47. | :25:49. | |
dry and breezy. Sunnier than today | :25:50. | :25:54. | |
and a little cooler. A cloudy start but cheering-up | :25:55. | :25:56. | |
with some sunshine. A bit breezy on the golf | :25:57. | :26:03. | |

with subtle differences One or two showers, colder | :26:35. | :26:38. | |
nights with ground frost The headlines again. The retrial of | :26:39. | :26:57. | |
former Wales international footballer Ched Evans has begun. He | :26:58. | :27:03. | |
is accused of raping a woman after a night out in 2011. He was in court | :27:04. | :27:07. | |
today having won an appeal against his original conviction. The jury | :27:08. | :27:11. | |
was told the alleged victim remembered drastically nothing of | :27:12. | :27:15. | |
the night and was too drunk to consent. Mr Evans denies the charge. | :27:16. | :27:22. | |
And after five months in the job, Cardiff City have sacked head coach | :27:23. | :27:25. | |
Paul Trollope. The bluebirds are second from bottom in the | :27:26. | :27:28. | |
