the weekend while between those heavy bursts of rain it should feel | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
warmer. Our top story: A Welsh MP calls | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
for a review of fixed odds betting Tonight, in a special report, | :00:10. | :00:13. | |
one former gambler tells us My son watched me put ?1500 in the | :00:14. | :00:29. | |
machine one day. When you are in the zone nothing is more important. | :00:30. | :00:36. | |
Also tonight, this former scoutmaster is already in prison | :00:37. | :00:38. | |
The latest from court where he's been given a fresh sentence for sex | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
Are you one of the landlords who could soon be breaking the law? | :00:43. | :00:46. | |
With weeks to go, thousands still aren't registered | :00:47. | :00:53. | |
Considering I had no idea about the scheme I don't think they've had all | :00:54. | :00:59. | |
done a good idea about encouraging good landlord behaviour. | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
And, a rural job in need of 21st century technology. | :01:03. | :01:04. | |
One farmers' union says slow broadband is causing | :01:05. | :01:06. | |
In tonight's sport, it's one of the world's biggest sporting | :01:07. | :01:11. | |
events, but one expert warns there could have been NO economic | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
benefits to Wales hosting the 2026 Commonwealth Games. | :01:15. | :01:40. | |
Good evening and welcome to the programme. | :01:41. | :01:41. | |
They generate billions of pounds for the gambling industry, | :01:42. | :01:44. | |
but tonight there's a claim that some betting game machines | :01:45. | :01:46. | |
are causing serious damage to Welsh communities. | :01:47. | :01:48. | |
The Welsh MP who's leading an inquiry into the fixed odds | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
terminals is now calling for a UK government review of the machinesm | :01:53. | :01:58. | |
which are found in bookmakers across the country. | :01:59. | :02:00. | |
With this special report, here's Gareth Bryer. | :02:01. | :02:08. | |
They are essential part of the gambling industry, fixed or what | :02:09. | :02:16. | |
betting terminals. Touch screen machines where you can play casino | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
games, electronic slot games and virtual racing. But unlike other | :02:22. | :02:27. | |
slot machines you can stake up to ?100 bet. After almost 50 years of | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
problem gambling, this man who wanted to remain anonymous, they | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
proved his undoing. His words are spoken a member of our production | :02:37. | :02:43. | |
team. My son watched me put ?1500 in a machine one day and he was | :02:44. | :02:48. | |
physically shaking. It when you are in the zone nothing matters and | :02:49. | :02:51. | |
there's nothing more important than the machine. Nothing could have | :02:52. | :02:59. | |
stopped me. Now, a Swansea MP and chair of the Parliamentary group | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
looking at the machines says the government needs to do something. We | :03:03. | :03:08. | |
need an overhaul and hopefully come up with a solution which will not | :03:09. | :03:14. | |
suit the bookies but it will help the associated problems with these | :03:15. | :03:17. | |
machines. When the bookies were on the high street and they were just | :03:18. | :03:20. | |
doing horse racing and dog racing they were part of the fabric of a | :03:21. | :03:25. | |
community but now they've become the scourge of the community. The | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
terminal 's first appeared in 1999 and last year, customers across the | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
UK, lost a total of ?1.7 billion playing them. Betting shops are | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
restricted to four machines and as things stand there are over 1400 | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
terminals in Wales. The UK Government has indicated it will | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
conduct a review of the machines and the maximum stake people can bet. | :03:51. | :03:55. | |
The industry accepts the review is likely but says the bookies shop is | :03:56. | :04:03. | |
the safest place to gamble. We welcome the debate. It's easy for | :04:04. | :04:08. | |
the antigambling lobby to make quite strong false claims about the | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
industry. The shins have been in shops for 15 years and they've been | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
reviewed. When the evidence comes before government they come to the | :04:18. | :04:21. | |
same conclusion, that they should be there. He was using money he's saved | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
for Christmas presents that prompted this gambler to break his habit. | :04:26. | :04:30. | |
I've been gamble free for two years but the addiction below was be part | :04:31. | :04:34. | |
of my life. It will never disappear and the thought of going into a | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
betting shop is frightening because I know if I walk back into a betting | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
shop the machines will make me have that feeling again. He made a break | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
from his past but for other individuals it is still at the heart | :04:48. | :04:50. | |
of our high streets and the stakes are high. | :04:51. | :04:52. | |
A former scout leader, who's already in jail for abusing | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
boys in the 1960s and '70s, has been given a further 11-year sentence. | :04:56. | :04:58. | |
Mold Crown Court heard how more victims of 70-year-old Martyn Tucker | :04:59. | :05:02. | |
came forward after seeing news reports of the previous case. | :05:03. | :05:07. | |
Our reporter Chris Dearden joins us now. | :05:08. | :05:09. | |
Well, the church described his behaviour as deviant and wholly | :05:10. | :05:27. | |
representative -- reprehensible. He admitted to 28 offences of indecent | :05:28. | :05:34. | |
assault or gross indecency. It involved eight victims aged as young | :05:35. | :05:38. | |
as 12 and one of the victim said he was left with long-term injuries | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
after he was sexually assaulted by Martyn Tucker. Another victim said | :05:42. | :05:47. | |
he was on a canoeing holiday with Martyn Tucker who I work in a tent | :05:48. | :05:53. | |
in the middle of the night and found he was being sexually assaulted. | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
Another said he was groomed between the ages of 12 and 14 by Martyn | :05:58. | :06:02. | |
Tucker in the 1980s and he was indecently assaulted several times | :06:03. | :06:06. | |
as well. Martyn Tucker had been a canoe instructor and Scout leader | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
but the judge said the -- that he had inflicted things on his victims | :06:12. | :06:17. | |
that they would suffer for three years. Reminders of his previous | :06:18. | :06:22. | |
convictions. In 2014 he was given 12 years in jail for offences against | :06:23. | :06:28. | |
five other victims. The court heard today that one man saw a news report | :06:29. | :06:34. | |
about that case in 2014 and broke down in tears in his kitchen. He | :06:35. | :06:39. | |
rang the police and spoke about it for the first time because he too | :06:40. | :06:43. | |
had been abused by Martyn Tucker. These were the charges on the sheet | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
today for which he was sentenced. There was another man in court, | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
Malcolm Gould, who was sentenced for assault on one of Martyn Tucker's | :06:53. | :06:58. | |
victims and the police have welcomed the sentences saying they hope there | :06:59. | :07:01. | |
is some justice for the victims who can get some closure on this. | :07:02. | :07:04. | |
The design of Swansea's Kingsway was a contributory factor | :07:05. | :07:06. | |
in an incident which resulted in the death of a 41-year-old woman | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
Sergeant Louise Lucas died in March 2015 after being hit | :07:10. | :07:12. | |
from behind by a bus when she attempted to | :07:13. | :07:15. | |
Road safety expert, Mark Steventon, said it was likely | :07:16. | :07:22. | |
Mrs Lucas momentarily forgot about the unconventional | :07:23. | :07:29. | |
Since Mrs Lucas' death metal barriers have been placed along | :07:30. | :07:33. | |
The Caerphilly MP, Wayne David, is returning to the Labour front | :07:34. | :07:39. | |
He originally left the shadow cabinet, in protest | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
at Jeremy Corbyn's leadership, but has agreed to go back IF he can | :07:44. | :07:46. | |
continue to support the renewal of the Trident nuclear system, | :07:47. | :07:48. | |
A former police superintendent who is on trial for historical sex | :07:49. | :07:57. | |
offences has told Mold Crown Court he's the victim of a "conspiracy | :07:58. | :08:00. | |
Gordon Anglesea, who's 78, denies abusing two boys | :08:01. | :08:03. | |
There are fears that thousands of landlords will soon | :08:04. | :08:14. | |
be breaking the law, when a new central licensing | :08:15. | :08:17. | |
Welsh Government figures suggest only one in four landlords have | :08:18. | :08:22. | |
undertaken the Rent Smart Wales training, with the deadline | :08:23. | :08:25. | |
It's hoped the scheme will raise standards, | :08:26. | :08:32. | |
but opponents say rogue landlords will slip through. | :08:33. | :08:34. | |
Here's our economics correspondent, Sarah Dickins. | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
Ffion Paschalis works for a Cardiff letting agency and shows me | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
The landlord has ten or 12 properties altogether. | :08:44. | :08:49. | |
He's converted this building into eight self-contained flats. | :08:50. | :08:55. | |
A mixture of two and one bedroom flats. | :08:56. | :08:58. | |
So that's someone who would be counted as a professional landlord? | :08:59. | :09:01. | |
Landlords and agents have to register within six weeks. | :09:02. | :09:04. | |
A central licensing scheme, Rent Smart Wales, has been set up | :09:05. | :09:07. | |
The scheme involves landlords being trained about | :09:08. | :09:12. | |
and responsibilities online or in a classroom and they get | :09:13. | :09:17. | |
Another option is not do the training, pay for | :09:18. | :09:23. | |
a letting agent but still register as a landlord. | :09:24. | :09:26. | |
Many landlords do not see themselves as businesses. | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
They just let out a home they've inherited or grown out of. | :09:31. | :09:34. | |
I fully agree with protecting tenants but there's not an awful lot | :09:35. | :09:39. | |
sometimes to protect landlords because there's an assumption | :09:40. | :09:40. | |
every landlord is bad and they have multiple properties. | :09:41. | :09:44. | |
I don't think Rent Smart has done a good job in helping to encourage | :09:45. | :09:51. | |
This is one of many events in which landlords are being | :09:52. | :09:56. | |
It takes eight weeks to be trained and registered for the scheme | :09:57. | :10:02. | |
so with six weeks before the government's deadline and three | :10:03. | :10:04. | |
quarters of landlords in Wales not registered that's quite a challenge. | :10:05. | :10:21. | |
The Residential Landlords Association says it advised | :10:22. | :10:22. | |
the Welsh government against this type of licensing. | :10:23. | :10:24. | |
It's incredibly bureaucratic and has proven not to be successful | :10:25. | :10:27. | |
Scotland hasn't taken up more than 15% of the problems. | :10:28. | :10:30. | |
The Welsh government hopes the scheme will increase | :10:31. | :10:32. | |
the reputation of the private sector here and attract more | :10:33. | :10:34. | |
There are a fair few accidental landlords in particular who have | :10:35. | :10:45. | |
maybe inherited property who aren't aware they have the same obligation | :10:46. | :10:48. | |
as someone who has maybe a hundred properties. | :10:49. | :10:52. | |
The fear is those people may find themselves the wrong side | :10:53. | :10:55. | |
A man who claims he slept with a woman just days before | :10:56. | :11:03. | |
she was allegedly raped by footballer Ched Evans, | :11:04. | :11:05. | |
has told a court he was "shocked" by her sexual behaviour. | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
The former Wales international denies raping the 19-year-old woman, | :11:10. | :11:12. | |
at a Premier Inn in Rhuddlan in Denbighshire, five years ago. | :11:13. | :11:15. | |
He was found guilty of rape in 2012, but had his conviction | :11:16. | :11:19. | |
Jed Evans has always maintained his innocence. His retrial has heard in | :11:20. | :11:35. | |
graphic detail about consensual sexual relationships but it's | :11:36. | :11:41. | |
claimed his alleged victim had with other men on other occasions -- that | :11:42. | :11:47. | |
it's claimed. It was in 2011 that the 19-year-old went back to a held | :11:48. | :11:54. | |
-- hotel room after a night out. The prosecution say that Mr Evans also | :11:55. | :11:57. | |
had sex with the woman here but she was too drunk to be able to consent | :11:58. | :12:03. | |
with him. She remembers nothing. The court heard today from a witness who | :12:04. | :12:07. | |
can't be named for legal reasons but he explained he also went back after | :12:08. | :12:12. | |
a night out with a moment when she was also drank but on a separate | :12:13. | :12:16. | |
occasion. He explained the direction and the words she used with him. The | :12:17. | :12:21. | |
court heard those words and direction were similar or identical | :12:22. | :12:26. | |
to the ones that Chad Evans said she used during their encounter at that | :12:27. | :12:32. | |
hotel that weekend. The witness added the woman was expecting sex as | :12:33. | :12:36. | |
soon as they got into the house. "She Turned and said... You're not | :12:37. | :12:44. | |
even going to rip my clothes off". Another witness explained he also | :12:45. | :12:48. | |
went back after a night out. He told the court that the 19-year-old | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
didn't appear to be able to remember what happened between them the night | :12:54. | :12:58. | |
before either. Defending Mr Evans, the QC asked why he was giving | :12:59. | :13:05. | |
evidence? The answer was because he believed she was lying. This was | :13:06. | :13:10. | |
extra evidence given to the Chad Evans legal team after Woods. Mr | :13:11. | :13:21. | |
Evans denies rape and the trial continues. | :13:22. | :13:24. | |
A look at some of the more unusual ways of sparking interest among | :13:25. | :13:34. | |
girls to follow a career in science and technology. | :13:35. | :13:39. | |
And there was a record medal haul for Wales in Glasgow, | :13:40. | :13:42. | |
but a report sets out some of the reasons a bid to host | :13:43. | :13:45. | |
the Commonwealth Games HERE was dropped. | :13:46. | :13:53. | |
The head of National Museum Wales has warned that proposals to merge | :13:54. | :13:56. | |
some of its commercial work, would tie it "by the legs". | :13:57. | :14:00. | |
Director General David Anderson told the assembly's culture committee | :14:01. | :14:03. | |
he feared a loss of effectiveness, if the plans involving Cadw, | :14:04. | :14:08. | |
the body in charge of historic sites in Wales, went ahead. | :14:09. | :14:10. | |
The Welsh government says it wants the institutions to become | :14:11. | :14:13. | |
It is hard to beat effective as an entity even though it may look as | :14:14. | :14:29. | |
though only certain functions are being taken. In practice, commercial | :14:30. | :14:37. | |
activities and non-commercial call work are deeply integrated with each | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
other and require savage surgery to separate them out. | :14:43. | :14:43. | |
Let s speak to our Arts Correspondent, Huw Thomas, | :14:44. | :14:45. | |
who is at the National Museum for us tonight. | :14:46. | :14:48. | |
Huw, how strongly is the museum resisting this plan? | :14:49. | :14:54. | |
It's fair to say that the museum is raising questions about the proposal | :14:55. | :15:02. | |
while also accepting some form of collaboration could ultimately be | :15:03. | :15:06. | |
beneficial to the museum and other institutions like it in Wales. | :15:07. | :15:10. | |
They're raising questions about a plan that could ultimately see its | :15:11. | :15:14. | |
commercial operations merged -- merge with those of Cadw. And also | :15:15. | :15:22. | |
attention you with the National library in Aberystwyth. We heard | :15:23. | :15:26. | |
from Mr Anderson saying how hard it would be to separate the commercial | :15:27. | :15:30. | |
function of the museum from the call work it does and they are | :15:31. | :15:35. | |
essentially fairly intertwined. He hinted that in the long term it | :15:36. | :15:39. | |
could be damaging to the museum. But the government has said it's at the | :15:40. | :15:42. | |
beginning of a consultation process to work out what the role of | :15:43. | :15:47. | |
Historic Wales would be when it's created and once the discussion to | :15:48. | :15:53. | |
take place in the coming months. But national Museum Wales aren't the | :15:54. | :16:00. | |
only one to debate this. They all claim it could be a threat to the | :16:01. | :16:03. | |
museum 's independence if the merger went ahead. Creating Historic Wales | :16:04. | :16:10. | |
was a Labour manifesto, wasn't it? Yes. In a sense it helps explain a | :16:11. | :16:16. | |
bit of the museum's stance as they feel that perhaps some of the ideas | :16:17. | :16:20. | |
about what Historic Wales should do have already been taken. The | :16:21. | :16:27. | |
government say a group will look at the business case for Historic Wales | :16:28. | :16:30. | |
in the next few months. In the meantime, you can expect National | :16:31. | :16:36. | |
Museum Wales to put its case for its own independence. Thank you. | :16:37. | :16:42. | |
A minute's silence will be observed across Wales next Friday morning | :16:43. | :16:44. | |
to remember the victims of Aberfan exactly 50 years after the disaster. | :16:45. | :16:47. | |
Earlier today, pupils from three local schools planted a tree | :16:48. | :16:50. | |
On October 21st 1966 - a colliery waste tip collapsed | :16:51. | :17:02. | |
onto Pantglas Junior School, killing 144 people. | :17:03. | :17:13. | |
There's a widening digital divide between rural Wales and the west of | :17:14. | :17:18. | |
the community according to the managing director of the farmers | :17:19. | :17:24. | |
union of Wales. Davies says businesses in farming are suffering | :17:25. | :17:28. | |
and unable to diversify. The Welsh government says it remains committed | :17:29. | :17:32. | |
to offering fast reliable broadband to every property here. | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
Gareth Lloyd is a sheep farmer in Talgarreg in Ceredgion. | :17:38. | :17:39. | |
He was brought up on the farm so learnt the business | :17:40. | :17:42. | |
at a very early age, but it's changing quickly but it's | :17:43. | :17:45. | |
battle to keep up when his broadband is still painfully slow. | :17:46. | :17:47. | |
Gareth is also often without mobile signal which makes it hard to run | :17:48. | :17:50. | |
This widening digital divide between rural Wales and the rest | :17:51. | :17:55. | |
You register cattle online and more and more people are coming online so | :17:56. | :18:11. | |
it is being more technologically advanced -- advanced. The ability | :18:12. | :18:14. | |
isn't there for a lot of people to do that because they haven't got | :18:15. | :18:18. | |
broadband Internet connection or the speed they have got means it takes | :18:19. | :18:25. | |
an age. It is the slow Internet connection that farmers say it is | :18:26. | :18:29. | |
making things difficult as they look to expand what they do. With Ning a | :18:30. | :18:34. | |
living off the land becoming increasingly hard, many farmers look | :18:35. | :18:38. | |
to diversify but that can be virtually impossible if you have a | :18:39. | :18:42. | |
slow Internet connection as you need it to market your business and take | :18:43. | :18:46. | |
bookings and for customers to use Wi-Fi when they are staying. At in a | :18:47. | :18:51. | |
poor mobile signal and it becomes increasingly frustrating when you | :18:52. | :18:56. | |
see other parts of the country seeing vast improvements. Alan | :18:57. | :18:59. | |
Davies Is The Managing Director Of The Farmers Union of Wales. He is | :19:00. | :19:08. | |
asking for a review. We are not getting anything in terms of | :19:09. | :19:13. | |
investment on local development because the connectivity isn't | :19:14. | :19:15. | |
there. Something serious needs to change, not least of which should be | :19:16. | :19:20. | |
a review of technological options available within superfast broadband | :19:21. | :19:25. | |
programmes. The Welsh government says they are continuing to make | :19:26. | :19:30. | |
solid progress on their superfast programme. There are whole counties | :19:31. | :19:36. | |
in Wales who have nothing at all. So, through superfast, we got to the | :19:37. | :19:45. | |
end of June and properties did get superfast broadband. But with many | :19:46. | :19:49. | |
parts of rural Wales still failing to see improvements, this is a | :19:50. | :19:51. | |
digital divide which seems to be getting wider. | :19:52. | :19:55. | |
Why do many women decide not to pursue a career inside and | :19:56. | :20:04. | |
technology? Research shows it is often a lack of confidence putting | :20:05. | :20:10. | |
girls are. An event today aims to inspire 15 to 22-year-old. | :20:11. | :20:16. | |
Making music with a glass bottle, a piece of wood and a string. It's all | :20:17. | :20:25. | |
to try and get girls more interested in subjects like science, | :20:26. | :20:26. | |
technology, engineering and maths. This social enterprise supports | :20:27. | :20:47. | |
girls considering a Stem career. This young woman says you don't need | :20:48. | :20:51. | |
to be as gifted as heard to work in the sector. Actually, the myth has | :20:52. | :20:58. | |
got a lot to do in the way of getting in the way. There's a | :20:59. | :21:03. | |
perception you must be amazing at maths to do anything related to it | :21:04. | :21:06. | |
but there are semi-different options. At an event today, a | :21:07. | :21:15. | |
practical demonstration to get girls interested in science and | :21:16. | :21:19. | |
technology. This is just a guitar string which vibrates. The vibration | :21:20. | :21:27. | |
is then picked up on this. If they can see how things actually come to | :21:28. | :21:33. | |
life... And it's about practical applications. Many pupils here are | :21:34. | :21:40. | |
seriously considering a Stem career and say encouragement often begins | :21:41. | :21:44. | |
at home. My grandad is a doctor so I've been inspired by him to pursue | :21:45. | :21:48. | |
a career in medicine or other sciences. I'm thinking of something | :21:49. | :21:55. | |
to do with technology as I enjoy computer work and designing | :21:56. | :21:59. | |
products. But women are still underrepresented when it comes to | :22:00. | :22:04. | |
so-called Stem subjects. In sectors like engineering, Wales has some of | :22:05. | :22:07. | |
the lowest numbers of women working will stop in Wales, the number of | :22:08. | :22:17. | |
chartered engineers stands at 5.6%. Far lower than other European | :22:18. | :22:21. | |
countries such as Sweden where 25% of engineers are women. The Welsh | :22:22. | :22:27. | |
government says it has spent ?2.2 million over the last couple of | :22:28. | :22:31. | |
years on science academy and has funded over 20 major programmes of | :22:32. | :22:36. | |
work with the aim of getting young people, especially girls, interested | :22:37. | :22:42. | |
in science technology. It hopes that at events like this it's a path that | :22:43. | :22:46. | |
more of them choose in the future. And now for the sport. | :22:47. | :22:54. | |
Hosting the Commonwealth Games in Wales in 2026 may have had no | :22:55. | :23:02. | |
economic benefits according to the Welsh government's chief economist. | :23:03. | :23:07. | |
A study into a possible bid released to BBC Wales following a Freedom of | :23:08. | :23:11. | |
information requests also warns that dropping the bid could damage the | :23:12. | :23:15. | |
reputation of Wales. The big events just keep coming... | :23:16. | :23:21. | |
Glasgow 2014, showcasing Scotland and not just its athletes, to the | :23:22. | :23:29. | |
world at a cost of ?425 million. It was under budget and considerably | :23:30. | :23:32. | |
less than what Wales would have spent to host the games in 2026. The | :23:33. | :23:37. | |
Welsh government study looked at a range of options and prices. In | :23:38. | :23:44. | |
third place at ?1.3 billion was the games in south-east Wales with the | :23:45. | :23:48. | |
new athletics stadium and velodrome in Newport. The second most hotly | :23:49. | :23:54. | |
was the game is split between South and North Wales. In first place, the | :23:55. | :24:02. | |
ministers' preferred options was an all Wales game costing ?1.5 billion. | :24:03. | :24:08. | |
The report says the main economic return would be from building | :24:09. | :24:12. | |
facilities like these. But it says that can be done without hosting the | :24:13. | :24:17. | |
games. It also says there is no clear evidence that hosting big | :24:18. | :24:21. | |
sporting events will get many of us out on the track and participating. | :24:22. | :24:25. | |
Some disagree with putting a price on moments like these. A gold fall | :24:26. | :24:37. | |
cyclist Geraint Thomas. But those behind Commonwealth Games Wales says | :24:38. | :24:41. | |
there will be another bid in the future and now there's plenty of | :24:42. | :24:44. | |
time to bring the cost down. Glasgow built a lot of its venue going into | :24:45. | :24:51. | |
the games whereas that wasn't the case for Wales. Some venues could | :24:52. | :24:57. | |
still be built and host single sport competitions. If those are done and | :24:58. | :25:03. | |
we were to come back, as we would like to come it would bring the cost | :25:04. | :25:06. | |
down. The Welsh government dropped their bid in July citing high cost | :25:07. | :25:13. | |
and funding and uncertainties over Brexit but the report says that may | :25:14. | :25:17. | |
damage the sporting reputation of Wales around the world. But winning | :25:18. | :25:23. | |
on this occasion might just have been too high a price to pay. | :25:24. | :25:31. | |
Cardiff won't host a marathon until 2018, a year later than originally | :25:32. | :25:36. | |
announced. Ten days ago, run for Wales said they would announce a | :25:37. | :25:42. | |
marathon next April, saying they don't want to rush a route. | :25:43. | :25:43. | |
Now for the weather. Thank you. Beach weather in some | :25:44. | :26:01. | |
parts today. Not everywhere has date dried today with a few showers | :26:02. | :26:04. | |
drifting in from England this afternoon. One or two showers around | :26:05. | :26:09. | |
tonight but most of the country is dry. Cloud and missed in places. | :26:10. | :26:18. | |
Temperatures will be cool. Tomorrow morning, parts of the North will be | :26:19. | :26:27. | |
cloudy and misty. Much of the country will be dry with lovely | :26:28. | :26:34. | |
sunshine in the south and West. During the day cloud will spread | :26:35. | :26:38. | |
across the country bringing one or two showers in the afternoon. Most | :26:39. | :26:43. | |
of the showers will be in the North and East and the Marches. Cooler | :26:44. | :26:52. | |
than today. The breeze from the east or Northeast. In Pembrokeshire | :26:53. | :26:56. | |
tomorrow, dry with sunny spells. Tomorrow evening, a few showers will | :26:57. | :27:11. | |
die away so generally dry overnight. Ground frost in places. Saying -- | :27:12. | :27:18. | |
staying clear in parts of the South and West. On Friday, much of the | :27:19. | :27:22. | |
country will be dry with bright spells of sunshine. On Friday, the | :27:23. | :27:31. | |
chart shows low pressure in -- towards Ireland which will influence | :27:32. | :27:36. | |
our weather for the weekend. Heavy showers but some sunshine as well | :27:37. | :27:37. | |
and turning milder. | :27:38. | :27:42. |
