:00:00. > :00:07.A woman who alleges she was raped

:00:08. > :00:11.by footballer Ched Evans in a hotel room tells a jury she did

:00:12. > :00:17.Another blow for the Welsh steel industry - 100 jobs go

:00:18. > :00:22.And we're underground with the latest on the Severn

:00:23. > :00:34.It's costing ?10 million, but bosses say work is right on track.

:00:35. > :00:41.You can understand the scale of the work, working 24 hours with 200

:00:42. > :00:44.people around condensing five years of work into six weeks.

:00:45. > :00:46.In tonight's sport: It's arguably their toughest

:00:47. > :00:48.World Cup qualifier - the Wales team arrive in Vienna

:00:49. > :01:01.ahead of their clash against Austria tomorrow night.

:01:02. > :01:06.A court has heard that a woman allegedly raped by the former Wales

:01:07. > :01:09.footballer Ched Evans woke up naked and alone in a hotel room and

:01:10. > :01:16.The prosecution say the woman was too drunk to consent.

:01:17. > :01:19.The Chesterfield striker denies raping her at the Premier Inn

:01:20. > :01:22.in Rhuddlan in Denbighshire five years ago.

:01:23. > :01:25.His re-trial was ordered after a successful appeal

:01:26. > :01:40.For a second day, Ched Evans listened in court that the woman he

:01:41. > :01:45.is accused of raping. It is alleged to have happened five years ago in

:01:46. > :01:49.Denbighshire. The court heard the 19-year-old woman was out drinking

:01:50. > :01:54.with friends in real during the second Maybank holiday weekend in

:01:55. > :01:57.2011. The jewellery were shown recorded a lease video interviews

:01:58. > :02:02.with the alleged victim from 2011. In them, she explains how she

:02:03. > :02:05.remembers nothing after leaving a nightclub last night save for

:02:06. > :02:09.holding a piece of pizza at some point in a takeaway. She described

:02:10. > :02:13.waking up alone in a hotel room without her clothes on, unable to

:02:14. > :02:17.explain how she got there. She said even her friends would say she does

:02:18. > :02:21.go out and drink, but not to the extent where she doesn't remember

:02:22. > :02:30.anything. CCTV shown in court showed the woman at this takeaway, she is

:02:31. > :02:32.seen stumbling and falling over. She met a friend of Chad Evans here,

:02:33. > :02:35.too. Follow football at Clayton McDonald's. The jury was shown CCTV

:02:36. > :02:43.showing the pair of getting a taxi back to the hotel. Previous trial,

:02:44. > :02:45.great Donnal was admitted of rape -- cleared of rape, there is no

:02:46. > :02:50.suggestion he has done anything wrong. The defence team of Ched

:02:51. > :02:53.Evans say he went into the room while the woman was having

:02:54. > :03:00.consensual sex and joined in with her permission. The QC put it to the

:03:01. > :03:03.alleged victim, I'm suggesting you were disinherited, you lost your

:03:04. > :03:07.inhibitions because you had been drinking? I don't no, said the

:03:08. > :03:10.woman. Later she said, a memory blackout does not mean unconscious,

:03:11. > :03:16.not capable of making decisions, would you agree with that? Yes, the

:03:17. > :03:20.woman replied. It was put several times to the alleged victim that she

:03:21. > :03:25.took the lead and directed things at the hotel that night. She maintains

:03:26. > :03:27.that's not something she would do. Chad Evans denies one count of rape.

:03:28. > :03:30.The trial continues. Around 100 workers have lost their

:03:31. > :03:33.jobs at a Newport steel firm. AIC Steel Limited, which has only

:03:34. > :03:36.been operating since 2014, 29 people are left

:03:37. > :03:41.working at the plant - and their future is unknown,

:03:42. > :03:43.as our Economics Correspondent Right in the heart of

:03:44. > :03:58.Newport's Docklands, they've been putting together

:03:59. > :04:00.structures made from steel Just two years ago, AIC celebrated

:04:01. > :04:03.a ?10 million investment But yesterday lunchtime,

:04:04. > :04:09.130 workers were called in the canteen, and told

:04:10. > :04:11.that the business was going 101 of them were made redundant,

:04:12. > :04:21.and those that are still left here are keeping the business

:04:22. > :04:24.ticking over while the administrator AIC has been buying steel

:04:25. > :04:27.and drilling and welding it and cutting it into whatever

:04:28. > :04:30.structure their clients order. The sheer size of the site means

:04:31. > :04:33.this team can work on vast projects. The site has helped build some

:04:34. > :04:35.of the most high-profile sporting venues in the UK,

:04:36. > :04:41.including the roof at the London Olympics Aquatics Centre,

:04:42. > :04:43.stadia in Cardiff and Swansea, Most recently, AIC had a contract

:04:44. > :05:00.with Bristol City Football Club It is very unfortunate for the

:05:01. > :05:04.workforce and the steel company. Unfortunately, it's not a great

:05:05. > :05:08.surprise, because the fabrication industry is facing a number of

:05:09. > :05:12.difficulties. Firstly, the demand, which was predicted to increase

:05:13. > :05:14.through 2016, is still flat-lining, there is very the full increase in

:05:15. > :05:26.demand in the fabrication industry. Working here for more than 40 years,

:05:27. > :05:31.and at one time, more than 1000 workers were there. It is only 2.5

:05:32. > :05:34.years since AIC took it over, when the company went into

:05:35. > :05:40.administration, hitting the local community hard. It has come as quite

:05:41. > :05:45.a shock, really. Only one year ago, they laid quite a few people off.

:05:46. > :05:52.And now have, you know, but in all of them go, is, yeah, it is going to

:05:53. > :05:55.be big in Newport, 100 people, lots of people, yeah, a sad day, a sad.

:05:56. > :06:00.How vulnerable is the Welsh steel industry right now?

:06:01. > :06:07.Well, really this isn't the steel industry as we might think of it in

:06:08. > :06:12.terms of Tata Steel, this company does not make steel, it buys steel

:06:13. > :06:14.and make things from them, it is a fabricator, we have got lots of

:06:15. > :06:18.fabricators across Wales but that doesn't mean they are having an easy

:06:19. > :06:22.time. They are the kind of business that do badly in a downturn or a

:06:23. > :06:26.recession, and it is very competitive out there. In fact,

:06:27. > :06:31.somebody who's applies that sector told me today that it is very quiet

:06:32. > :06:33.in Wales in that field. That is particularly dangerous because you

:06:34. > :06:38.could go out as a business tendering, trying to get work, get

:06:39. > :06:42.too much work in and not be able to deliver in the time because you

:06:43. > :06:46.don't have the capacity, you have only got 130 workers after all. But

:06:47. > :06:50.the other thing is special bespoke tailored products like this are very

:06:51. > :06:54.hard to cost. You want to offer a cost that is cheap so that you get

:06:55. > :06:57.the business, the lowest you can to get the business, but you might find

:06:58. > :07:06.there is no room for any profit there. We don't know the reasoning

:07:07. > :07:08.behind this, the administrators and saying what, but it is a fragile,

:07:09. > :07:09.delicate kind of business. Thank you, Sarah.

:07:10. > :07:12.A 33-year-old man from Cardiff has appeared in court charged

:07:13. > :07:14.with six terrorism offences, including membership of so-called

:07:15. > :07:15.Islamic State, and possessing a missile guidance book.

:07:16. > :07:18.Samata Ullah was arrested in the city last Tuesday

:07:19. > :07:19.by the Metropolitian Police Counter Terrorism Command.

:07:20. > :07:25.He was remanded in custody to appear at the Old Bailey later this month.

:07:26. > :07:28.An investigation's underway into an oil spill which has entered

:07:29. > :07:32.Natural Resources Wales says it's working to contain the spill

:07:33. > :07:39.Kerosene from the pipeline which carries aviation fuel

:07:40. > :07:41.and diesel from the Valero refinery in Pembroke has

:07:42. > :07:46.Anglers in the area say they've seen a large number of dead

:07:47. > :07:52.You know, the river's bad enough as it is.

:07:53. > :07:55.You can smell it in the air now, I can feel it on my hands.

:07:56. > :08:00.If this is happening here, what's it going to be like once it

:08:01. > :08:04.And then it's floating up and down with the tides.

:08:05. > :08:06.We don't know what effect that's going to have.

:08:07. > :08:09.The leader of Ukip in the Assembly, Neil Hamilton, has ruled himself out

:08:10. > :08:12.of the running to become the party's new UK leader.

:08:13. > :08:15.Diane James, who'd only held the post for 18

:08:16. > :08:19.Nigel Farage, whom she took over from, described the prospect

:08:20. > :08:23.of Mr Hamilton leading the party as a "horror show",

:08:24. > :08:32.I do not see any prospect of that horror story coming to pass.

:08:33. > :08:36.He is the leader of Ukip in the Welsh Assembly?

:08:37. > :08:46.Because I'm afraid he doesn't do our public image a whole

:08:47. > :08:51.Our Political Reporter, Paul Martin, has been following another lively

:08:52. > :09:06.Yes, it was just last week that Diane James was here in Cardiff Bay,

:09:07. > :09:11.meeting Ukip AM to tell them about her plans for the future of the

:09:12. > :09:15.party. Nine days later, she is out of the job at Nigel Farage is back,

:09:16. > :09:21.temporarily at least. As for who is going to take over from Diane James

:09:22. > :09:25.here in the longer term, Neil Hamilton ruled himself out, and he

:09:26. > :09:29.had this response to that big from Nigel Farage. I suppose different

:09:30. > :09:35.things Bright and different people. In the cause of a long political

:09:36. > :09:39.life, criticism is rarely inhibited by ignorance. As for who is in the

:09:40. > :09:43.running for the drop, Steven Woolfe, an MEP who fail to get his

:09:44. > :09:47.nomination papers in in time, he confirmed this afternoon he is going

:09:48. > :09:53.to go to the job again, and he is very close to form the Ukip Wales

:09:54. > :09:56.leader Nathan Gill. A rival, of course, of Neil Hamilton. People who

:09:57. > :09:59.followed the Ukip Wales or will not be surprised to hear that Neil

:10:00. > :10:04.Hamilton is backing a different candidate. He wants another MEP,

:10:05. > :10:07.Paul Nuttall, deliver the job. Mr Hamilton feels that Paul Nuttall

:10:08. > :10:13.will be the best man to develop the presence that Ukip as in traditional

:10:14. > :10:14.Labour areas like the Welsh valleys. Thank you, Paul.

:10:15. > :10:15.It's emerged the six-week electrification work

:10:16. > :10:18.in the Severn Tunnel is costing Network Rail ?10 million.

:10:19. > :10:19.Engineers at the partly taxpayer-funded body say

:10:20. > :10:23.they are on track to finish by their October 21st deadline.

:10:24. > :10:25.The tunnel is closed during the engineering,

:10:26. > :10:37.The future's arrived in the dark, damp Severn Tunnel.

:10:38. > :10:44.A 21st-century rail anchored in Victorian brick.

:10:45. > :10:48.But while engineers are ferried to their subterranean work,

:10:49. > :10:53.This work has caused misery for thousands of commuters,

:10:54. > :10:55.who've had to travel the long way round using

:10:56. > :11:04.Transport planners are hoping it's worth it.

:11:05. > :11:08.The Swiss-made rail will power faster trains to South Wales.

:11:09. > :11:11.The England to Wales line has already been finished.

:11:12. > :11:14.Those working here say it's the most intensive rail project

:11:15. > :11:22.These six weeks are costing Network Rail, which is

:11:23. > :11:29.Within the six weeks' working, we're spending circa ?10 million.

:11:30. > :11:31.So you can understand the scale of the work,

:11:32. > :11:34.working 24 hours with 200 people round-the-clock, condensing five

:11:35. > :11:40.Commuters are travelling the long way round while

:11:41. > :11:45.Trains between South Wales and London are taking the scenic

:11:46. > :11:47.route via Gloucester, adding around 35

:11:48. > :11:54.And passengers have been sharing their experiences online.

:11:55. > :11:56.Emma from Newport posted this picture, pleased

:11:57. > :12:01.with her new commute along the River Severn.

:12:02. > :12:03.But others, like Nathan Cready, are frustrated with

:12:04. > :12:10.Electrification will allow these to operate in Wales -

:12:11. > :12:12.they should cut 30 minutes off a journey to London.

:12:13. > :12:18.Engineers say working the tunnel is going to plan,

:12:19. > :12:20.but exactly when electrified trains will arrive here

:12:21. > :12:26.Network Rail say they should be in Cardiff by 2019,

:12:27. > :12:35.And more bad news for commuters tonight -

:12:36. > :12:37.the railway line between Newport and Cardif has been closed

:12:38. > :12:41.because an unexploded bomb from the Second World War has been

:12:42. > :12:50.We'll be in Vienna, as Wales prepare to take on Austria

:12:51. > :12:55.in arguably their toughest World Cup Qualifier.

:12:56. > :12:57.And it's been a beautiful autumn day.

:12:58. > :13:00.Sunny and breezy, but how long will the fine weather last,

:13:01. > :13:12.The Prime Minister Theresa May has promised to help ordinary working

:13:13. > :13:14.class people in a speech to the Conservative Party

:13:15. > :13:19.conference, claiming they'd been hit hardest by the financial crisis.

:13:20. > :13:23.But what do the blue-collar workers of Wales make of her message?

:13:24. > :13:25.Our Political Correspondent, James Williams, has been

:13:26. > :13:40.A speech delivered to the party faithful in Birmingham, but one

:13:41. > :13:45.directed to the country at large. This is a bold plan to bring Britain

:13:46. > :13:50.together, to build a new united Britain, rooted... The test, as

:13:51. > :13:52.always with these beaches, is whether they resonate outside of the

:13:53. > :13:58.conference hall in places like Bridgend. A lot of water has flowed

:13:59. > :14:04.under the bridge since this area last turned blue. It was 1983, in

:14:05. > :14:07.fact, when spread end back the Conservatives. But the party has

:14:08. > :14:11.been chipping away at the majority of Labour here in recent years, and

:14:12. > :14:17.has the seat firmly set in its sights. So, what are the people of

:14:18. > :14:20.the town make of Theresa May's hotly contested pitch that the

:14:21. > :14:27.Conservatives can reclaim the new centre ground of British politics?

:14:28. > :14:30.Well, I've never been impressed with the Conservative Party, to be

:14:31. > :14:36.honest. I think she's possibly got more qualities to help most people

:14:37. > :14:40.in the country than Mr Cameron before her. Do you think she is a

:14:41. > :14:45.strong leader? Yeah, I'm just glad there is another woman in, to be

:14:46. > :14:51.honest. Would you consider voting for her? Yes. She didn't vote for

:14:52. > :14:56.Brexit. I voted out, and I'm glad to see now that she is trying to keep

:14:57. > :15:02.it going, you know, do the best she can for the country. Brexit will

:15:03. > :15:07.undoubtedly defying Theresa May's time in Downing Street. She called

:15:08. > :15:10.the vote to leave the EU we quiet revolution, urging people to seize

:15:11. > :15:15.the day. She will do the best that she can. And she is in a difficult

:15:16. > :15:20.position. In reality, it's probably a no-win situation on a personal

:15:21. > :15:24.site. It has been six months since this councillor left the

:15:25. > :15:28.Conservatives. But he thinks other people in the area may go the other

:15:29. > :15:32.way. In the last election, we had the unknown quantity that is Ukip.

:15:33. > :15:38.And as they are currently seeking the votes back from Ukip by really

:15:39. > :15:42.adopting there are gender, it is quite possible, of course, that they

:15:43. > :15:48.will chip away at Labour's majority little bit more -- there agenda.

:15:49. > :15:53.Whether it is enough to turn its blue, that is going to depend very

:15:54. > :15:56.much on how Brexit really does affect Bridgend. Three months into

:15:57. > :15:58.her premiership, Theresa May is still enjoying her honeymoon. But

:15:59. > :16:05.there is a very rocky road ahead. A drop-in session has been held

:16:06. > :16:07.for people to find out more about plans for a ?7.5 million

:16:08. > :16:09.flood-defence scheme 91-year-old Margaret Hughes died

:16:10. > :16:13.and 400 homes were flooded when the River Elwy burst its banks

:16:14. > :16:16.in St Asaph in November 2012. Work to protect the city from future

:16:17. > :16:24.flooding is due to start next week. Plans for a ?12 million renewable

:16:25. > :16:26.energy project at a waterfall in the Snowdonia National Park

:16:27. > :16:30.have been withdrawn. Innogy Renewables UK Limited had

:16:31. > :16:32.proposed a hydro-electric scheme on the River Conwy,

:16:33. > :16:36.near Betws y Coed. But it says it's decided

:16:37. > :16:39.to shelve the project. It had attracted opposition

:16:40. > :16:41.from environmentalists, Let's get tonight's

:16:42. > :16:50.sport now with Kate. More money than ever

:16:51. > :16:58.before is being spent on rugby in Wales, according

:16:59. > :17:00.to the Welsh Rugby With a 13% increase in its turnover,

:17:01. > :17:04.the WRU says it will continue to increase funding

:17:05. > :17:07.for the game at all levels. But some community clubs claim

:17:08. > :17:22.they're struggling to survive. Nurturing the rugby stars of the

:17:23. > :17:27.future. Today, this club welcomed Gower College. This is on the 18th

:17:28. > :17:30.elite college rugby. The young players at Galer College, like many

:17:31. > :17:35.other schools around Wales, are coached by a rugby officer,

:17:36. > :17:38.appointed as part of the school choir Pup programme. Its purpose is

:17:39. > :17:44.to boost the number of children playing the game. We are trying to

:17:45. > :17:49.promote rugby, encourage kids to play, we can start filtering them

:17:50. > :17:53.into the clubs. Last year, we had year sevens, a lot of them coming to

:17:54. > :17:57.school, never played rugby before, we worked really hard to get the

:17:58. > :18:02.team up and running. We created and under 12 is. If we can do that every

:18:03. > :18:05.year, we can have a full junior section in three or four years,

:18:06. > :18:09.which is great for the club. Expanding this kind of initiative

:18:10. > :18:13.has been possible due to what the Welsh Rugby union claims is a record

:18:14. > :18:18.investment in the national game. If we take a look at that investment in

:18:19. > :18:21.a bit more detail we can see that regional rugby gets the biggest

:18:22. > :18:28.portion of the money, more than ?19 million. Around ?200,000 more has

:18:29. > :18:32.been invested in premiership rugby, and further to that, an extra ?1

:18:33. > :18:38.million has gone back into the game at the grassroots level. We always

:18:39. > :18:43.try and encourage the club to be sort of like the hub of society. I

:18:44. > :18:47.think we're all aware in Wales that many of these institutions are

:18:48. > :18:51.struggling, if you like, in terms of attracting people. So it's

:18:52. > :18:57.important, you know, villages the length and breadth of Wales have

:18:58. > :19:00.rugby clubs, it is important they have sustainable futures.

:19:01. > :19:03.Encouraging words for the likes of this club. They had to pull out of

:19:04. > :19:08.the league this season because they were not able to arrange a team.

:19:09. > :19:12.This is a unique situation. Over the past few years, many clubs have

:19:13. > :19:18.struggled. We have been struggling for a few years. But at the start of

:19:19. > :19:22.the season, we were hopeful that we would have a decent season. First

:19:23. > :19:28.training session we had 20-odd players out. But from there it

:19:29. > :19:32.declined. I come up here two or three weeks later, coming in the

:19:33. > :19:35.dressing room and there five or six players. They said that players have

:19:36. > :19:40.transferred into other clubs. I just don't know what the reason is. Many

:19:41. > :19:44.of these young players have their sights set in a career on

:19:45. > :19:48.professional rugby. To ensure more young players can have the same

:19:49. > :19:51.aspirations, the W Y dew says it will look for new ways of generating

:19:52. > :20:03.revenue to allow the game to to grow.

:20:04. > :20:07.Let's start with Cardiff City - they've appointed Neil Warnock

:20:08. > :20:09.as manager after Paul Trollope was sacked yesterday.

:20:10. > :20:10.The 67-year-old helped Rotherham avoid relegation

:20:11. > :20:13.from the division last season, but turned down the chance to stay.

:20:14. > :20:16.Trollope was dismissed after only two wins in 11 games.

:20:17. > :20:21.The Wales team have arrived in Vienna, head of arguably their

:20:22. > :20:25.toughest World Cup qualifier against Austria tomorrow night. Chris

:20:26. > :20:31.Coleman's side will be looking to continue their good run of form. In

:20:32. > :20:36.the city famous for Mozart and Strauss and calculus concert halls.

:20:37. > :20:42.It is Wales' turn to perform in Vienna. It's all on tomorrow night.

:20:43. > :20:49.It's the night we've been waiting for, we'll see who is ready and who

:20:50. > :20:52.is prepared. Whether they've got strength and weaknesses the same as

:20:53. > :20:56.us, it's who is ready for the night and ready for the game tomorrow

:20:57. > :21:00.night. The Austria manager said the night two or three of his players

:21:01. > :21:07.will be tasked with marking Gareth Bale. The manager also claimed Wales

:21:08. > :21:10.were lucky to reach the semifinals of Euro 2016. After success in the

:21:11. > :21:15.summer, the demand for tickets has been higher than usual. Around 4000

:21:16. > :21:20.supporters are expected to travel here. But some fans won't have to

:21:21. > :21:23.travel too far to get to the game. John Morgan was brought up in

:21:24. > :21:29.Newcastle Emlyn, but Vienna has been his home for 40 years. Having

:21:30. > :21:35.clocked up thousands of miles in his car following the national side,

:21:36. > :21:38.this game is on his doorstep. This is marvellous, because we're still

:21:39. > :21:43.recovering from the French trip, even the bank account are being

:21:44. > :21:49.slowly repaired. At the moment everybody wants to see Gareth Bale,

:21:50. > :21:54.he is the superstar, he is the local hero in Austria. Everybody wants to

:21:55. > :21:59.see him play. And who would bet against it Wales side with bail on

:22:00. > :22:04.form? But tomorrow's match is possibly Chris Coleman's toughest

:22:05. > :22:11.test of the campaign, taking all aside seeded second behind Wales in

:22:12. > :22:12.the group. -- taking on a side. We will of course have all of the

:22:13. > :22:13.build-up. We'll have all the build-up

:22:14. > :22:16.to Wales' World Cup qualifier against Austria

:22:17. > :22:17.in tomorrow's programme. For now, that's all

:22:18. > :22:18.your sport, Nicky. ?7 million a year is spent

:22:19. > :22:23.clearing drains in Wales, because people are flushing things

:22:24. > :22:25.they shouldn't down the loo. Now Welsh Water is launching

:22:26. > :22:28.a new campaign to get people to clean up their act,

:22:29. > :22:32.as Caroline Evans reports. Yet another blockage

:22:33. > :22:36.for the Welsh Water team to tackle. And there's a stone

:22:37. > :22:42.in there as well, I think, Wet wipes by the bucketload

:22:43. > :22:47.are having to be pulled out Steve has been doing

:22:48. > :22:54.this job for 15 years, The worst thing I found

:22:55. > :22:59.in the drains was a small kids' paddling pool,

:23:00. > :23:00.which someone had obviously just stuffed on the line

:23:01. > :23:05.and used it as a bin. His colleague, Gareth,

:23:06. > :23:07.just a few months into the job, has A kids' toy, and I've seen

:23:08. > :23:14.a football before now. It seems people will throw

:23:15. > :23:22.anything down the drain. But even rinsing oil down the sink

:23:23. > :23:26.can lead to major problems. Just remember this fatberg

:23:27. > :23:31.found under Cardiff. With 2000 call-outs to blocked

:23:32. > :23:33.sewers every month, Welsh Water has today launched a campaign hoping

:23:34. > :23:36.to make people realise the damage they can cause by flushing a cotton

:23:37. > :23:44.bud or putting food down the sink. If we just stick to putting paper,

:23:45. > :23:48.poo and pee down the toilet and not wet wipes and cotton buds

:23:49. > :23:50.and plastic and all sorts of manner of other things,

:23:51. > :23:53.then the sewers will block far less So, really, it's all

:23:54. > :23:56.about working with customers so that they understand what not

:23:57. > :24:02.to put down the toilet. A recent survey found Welsh Water

:24:03. > :24:04.customers would rather see investment in our water system

:24:05. > :24:08.than money off bills. It is hoped that by highlighting

:24:09. > :24:11.the cost of work like this, ?7 million per year,

:24:12. > :24:30.it will help change habits. There is plenty more dry weather to

:24:31. > :24:36.come this week, that's for sure, although it will turn a bit cooler

:24:37. > :24:40.and Claudio. No sign yet of any significant rain, just one or two

:24:41. > :24:46.showers. Lots of sunshine and cloud in Welshpool today with a gusty

:24:47. > :24:50.wind, sunny and breezy in Tonypandy. High pressure over Scandinavia at

:24:51. > :24:54.the moment, that's the reason for the dry spell. Quite a few isobars

:24:55. > :24:59.across the UK, that's why it has been a bit windy today. We also have

:25:00. > :25:03.some cooler air lurking David Germany, and that blob of cooler air

:25:04. > :25:08.is heading our way, it's going to reach us tomorrow, bringing in

:25:09. > :25:15.temperature. In the meantime, fine and clear this evening. -- bringing

:25:16. > :25:18.a cooler temperature. The South and West stays clear, and cooler than

:25:19. > :25:23.last night, temperatures falling as low as six or seven Celsius. Here is

:25:24. > :25:28.the picture for tomorrow morning at 8am, it will feel chilly, but dry.

:25:29. > :25:35.Cloudy in parts of the South East. Some cloud likely in Wrexham and

:25:36. > :25:41.Flintshire. I'll swear, fine and bright, should be sunny in the West.

:25:42. > :25:45.-- elsewhere. During the day, some cloud will spread from the east,

:25:46. > :25:51.still a few sunny intervals in the afternoon but not as sunny as today.

:25:52. > :25:56.Generally dry and cooler. Temperatures lower than today, 12 to

:25:57. > :26:00.15 Celsius. The wind not quite so strong, but still a noticeable

:26:01. > :26:07.breeze. In Monmouthshire tomorrow, cloudier than today, cooler as well

:26:08. > :26:15.with the breeze. Turning a bit cloudier in the afternoon. Tomorrow

:26:16. > :26:20.evening and overnight, the cloud may be thick enough for one or two

:26:21. > :26:25.passing showers here and there, and feeling on the cool side. Friday is

:26:26. > :26:29.fairly cloudy, showers in places, otherwise a lot of dry weather and

:26:30. > :26:34.bright and sunny towards Pembrokeshire. Temperatures a degree

:26:35. > :26:40.also higher, 16 Celsius in Aberystwyth. The weekend, not agree

:26:41. > :26:45.deal of change. -- not a great deal of change. One or two showers,

:26:46. > :26:49.otherwise dry, bright spells of sunshine, wind light, similar on

:26:50. > :26:55.Sunday, the risk of a sharp too, slightly cooler. Make the best of

:26:56. > :27:01.the sunshine in parts of the South and West. That's all for me. Thanks,

:27:02. > :27:05.Derek. A reminder of our top story tonight. A court has heard that a

:27:06. > :27:13.woman allegedly raped by the formal Welsh footballer Ted Evans -- Ched

:27:14. > :27:18.Evans said that the woman was too drunk to consent. The Chesterfield

:27:19. > :27:21.striker denies raping her in Denbighshire in 2011. I'll be back

:27:22. > :27:27.I'll be back with a quick update at 8pm, and a full round-up

:27:28. > :27:30.From all of us on the programme, have a lovely evening.
