:03:51. > :03:53.cars, helicopters and castles, but a tale which ultimately
:03:54. > :03:55.descended with a blackmail At this level, there will be
:03:56. > :04:09.an emergency exit... Peter Morgan made his money in steel
:04:10. > :04:11.agricultural buildings, but by his mid-40s, he had sold up
:04:12. > :04:14.and developing a successful property portfolio, which included cottages,
:04:15. > :04:17.a castle and of course that windmill But in 2012, going through something
:04:18. > :04:20.of a midlife crisis, the married father of two
:04:21. > :04:22.started seeing escorts. Georgina Symonds became
:04:23. > :04:24.the centre of his world. For more than three years,
:04:25. > :04:26.he pampered with luxury gifts and fast cars,
:04:27. > :04:28.took her on helicopter flights, paid for full body lyposuction,
:04:29. > :04:31.and gave her an income of up He moved her into a bungalow
:04:32. > :04:35.in the grounds of a castle Holed up in the grounds
:04:36. > :04:43.of Pencoed Castle, she descended into a spiral of drug and alcohol
:04:44. > :04:46.abuse, following the suicide of her She became abusive towards Morgan,
:04:47. > :04:49.she threatened to blackmail him, He put a covert recording
:04:50. > :04:53.device in the bungalow, With the device in place,
:04:54. > :05:08.Morgan accessed the bug 514 times between November 2015 and Georgina's
:05:09. > :05:18.death in January. He could call it directly from his
:05:19. > :05:22.phone, he'd called it Isobel. He would listen into conversations
:05:23. > :05:25.in the lounge between Georgina and her new boyfriend,
:05:26. > :05:27.Thomas Ballinger, for up But the prosecution say one
:05:28. > :05:36.particular conversation enraged him. He heard her say, once
:05:37. > :05:39.he signs the bungalow over, I'm going to London
:05:40. > :05:42.to work as an escort. The court heard that conversation
:05:43. > :05:46.is a possible catalyst for the chain The day before he killed her,
:05:47. > :05:51.Morgan was caught on his own CCTV picking up equipment from a barn
:05:52. > :05:53.in his 4X4. A note found by police
:05:54. > :05:56.on his iPhone was a shopping list of what he'd need to carry out
:05:57. > :05:58.what the prosecution called a premeditated
:05:59. > :06:00.and well-planned murder. He admitted strangling her
:06:01. > :06:02.with a home-made ligature made of bailing twine as he sat next
:06:03. > :06:05.to her on the sofa He then placed her body in his car
:06:06. > :06:09.and drove her to his former CCTV footage from this property
:06:10. > :06:15.was shown to the jewellery. It shows Peter Morgan arriving
:06:16. > :06:17.here at Beech Hill farm The prosecution say he made a secure
:06:18. > :06:27.package of Georgina's body, using plastic sheeting and tape
:06:28. > :06:30.and they say the video shows him removing her body
:06:31. > :06:32.from the back of his car, bound and trussed up,
:06:33. > :06:35.and attached to a metal pole to enable him to carry it
:06:36. > :06:37.into the barn. At first, he told police he did not
:06:38. > :06:40.know where Georgina was. But within hours, he was
:06:41. > :06:42.confessing to killing her. I had the intention
:06:43. > :06:52.to kill her, didn't I? The trouble is, once I'd sort
:06:53. > :07:03.of attempted to murder her, I'd be in a hell of a lot of trouble
:07:04. > :07:07.for that, and she would still have gone on and
:07:08. > :07:10.blackmailed me, couldn't she? Peter Morgan committed a cold,
:07:11. > :07:12.calculated and violent crime. He's very deliberate
:07:13. > :07:14.actions resulted in a young His relationship with Georgina had
:07:15. > :07:17.become an obsession for him, which ultimately led to the events
:07:18. > :07:19.of January 12th. The actions he took the day before
:07:20. > :07:22.clearly demonstrated his intentions and his preparation for the crime
:07:23. > :07:28.was careful and meticulous. Peter Morgan had always admitted
:07:29. > :07:31.the killing but his defence said he was only guilty of manslaughter
:07:32. > :07:33.because he was on the Today, that was dismissed
:07:34. > :07:39.by the jury who found him guilty As her family continue to grieve,
:07:40. > :07:47.they say her death has left them broken and devastated and no
:07:48. > :07:49.sentence will be long enough The judge acknowledged
:07:50. > :08:00.that Morgan had suffered provocation that was vicious,
:08:01. > :08:02.persistent and extreme, and accepted that the threat of
:08:03. > :08:05.blackmail was gross and appalling. However he said, you ended
:08:06. > :08:07.the life of a woman, who, whatever her faults,
:08:08. > :08:21.was greatly loved. Meanwhile at Cardiff Crown Court

:09:09. > :09:19.over whether a deal to guarantee steel-making at Tata sites in Wales,
:09:20. > :09:22.including at the UK's largest works The two biggest unions
:09:23. > :09:26.at Port Talbot say they will leave it to workers to decide
:09:27. > :09:28.whether to accept the proposals The deal would see changes
:09:29. > :09:32.to the pension scheme but would also include a billion
:09:33. > :09:38.pounds of investment. Here's our business
:09:39. > :09:45.correspondent, Brian Meechan. Only two weeks ago, Port Talbot's
:09:46. > :09:48.future looked a little more certain, as the deal between bosses
:09:49. > :09:50.and unions was announced. But it's emerged that it's a much
:09:51. > :09:52.tougher agreement to sell The sticking point could prove to be
:09:53. > :09:56.the changes to pensions, which would mean ending the current
:09:57. > :09:58.final salary scheme. It will be replaced by a less
:09:59. > :10:01.generous defined contribution scheme, involving maximum
:10:02. > :10:03.contributions of 10% from Tata Tata and the unions are holding
:10:04. > :10:14.a series of meetings with workers to explain what the changes
:10:15. > :10:16.will mean for them. But there still seems to be a lot
:10:17. > :10:19.of confusion and a concern over The unions believe that ultimately,
:10:20. > :10:23.it's up to Tata to explain to the workforce why they think
:10:24. > :10:27.these changes are needed. The two biggest unions,
:10:28. > :10:29.Community and Unite, say they want to be recommending
:10:30. > :10:35.which way members should vote. One of those who will have
:10:36. > :10:38.to decide is David Edwards, who has worked for Tata
:10:39. > :10:47.for 11 years. There are pension roadshows
:10:48. > :10:49.going on at the moment but I don't know how much information
:10:50. > :10:52.we are going to get from them. People are just worried
:10:53. > :10:54.for their future. Because, I mean, you need a job,
:10:55. > :10:57.yes, but when you finish that job, you need to be able to live
:10:58. > :10:59.when you've retired According to pensions experts,
:11:00. > :11:08.the deal on offer is a good one, compared to what other companies
:11:09. > :11:15.give their staff. They will pay 10% salary
:11:16. > :11:18.contribution to the pension arrangement, which is very generous
:11:19. > :11:20.compared to my experience of the market and also the Office
:11:21. > :11:23.for National Statistics today survey recently and the average employer
:11:24. > :11:24.contribution was 2.5%. You can see what Tata Steel
:11:25. > :11:27.is offering is far, far better But obviously, compared
:11:28. > :11:31.to what members and employees had Tata says the pension
:11:32. > :11:41.changes are essential. It's pledged to invest ?1 billion
:11:42. > :11:44.over ten years and keep both blast furnaces going for five years,
:11:45. > :11:46.if it gets the change. Tony Taylor had been a steelworker
:11:47. > :11:49.at Port Talbot for over four decades and he is now a councillor
:11:50. > :11:56.for the area. I think they feel that
:11:57. > :11:58.they have been a little I spoke to a lot of people over
:11:59. > :12:02.the weekend and they said, we don't really think this is really
:12:03. > :12:06.a good deal, but I think this is the only game in town,
:12:07. > :12:09.to be honest, and it's given a lifeline of five, seven,
:12:10. > :12:10.ten years, whatever. At least it has given secure
:12:11. > :12:14.long-term jobs and it is going to be But the local Assembly Member says
:12:15. > :12:19.the staff's decision cannot We are as concerned today
:12:20. > :12:25.as we were 12 months ago because at this point in time,
:12:26. > :12:27.there is no deal, What we want to try and do
:12:28. > :12:32.is to ensure that we get UK steel and particularly this plant
:12:33. > :12:34.in as strong a position as possible. But we need the steelworkers
:12:35. > :12:37.to have the confidence. In the last 12 months,
:12:38. > :12:39.we have seen confidence eroded a little bit and they need to regain
:12:40. > :12:44.the confidence once again. Workers here and across Tata's Welsh
:12:45. > :12:47.sites will have the final decision. A ballot is expected
:12:48. > :13:02.early next year. So, if the workforce votes against
:13:03. > :13:09.the deal on the table, what is plan B? I think the short answer, Lucy,
:13:10. > :13:15.is that no one is clear that there is a plan B. Two weeks ago when this
:13:16. > :13:18.deal was announced, I ask the community union that very question
:13:19. > :13:23.and they said ultimately there is no better deal on the table from Tata.
:13:24. > :13:28.The question is, if they go back to them, will they be able to negotiate
:13:29. > :13:32.something better? These chances of that seem quite slim. There is
:13:33. > :13:36.potentially a return to that sales process that was halted. There are
:13:37. > :13:42.still two companies that are interested in the site but there is
:13:43. > :13:46.no suggestion they will offer a better pension deal to the workers.
:13:47. > :13:52.It has to be said they are not that that point yet. Tata Steel has about
:13:53. > :13:56.a month to speak to workers and explain to them why this is
:13:57. > :14:00.necessary but they came back 18 months ago and they asked for this
:14:01. > :14:04.change and that actually was rejected by the workers then and it
:14:05. > :14:08.has been 12 months of difficulties since then. It is going to be key
:14:09. > :14:12.what kind of relationship Tata has with its workforce now.
:14:13. > :14:14.Unreliable mobile phone signal can be hugely frustrating,
:14:15. > :14:17.so spare a thought for people who live in areas where
:14:18. > :14:20.Now planning rules could be changed to help tackle mobile not-spots.

:14:48. > :14:49.You have to drive any direction out of the village,
:14:50. > :15:00.Synod Inn sort of area, to get a mobile phone signal.
:15:01. > :15:05.Yes, if you need to contact anybody or you are waiting for any phone
:15:06. > :15:11.The local pub has Wi-Fi but no mobile signal.

:15:41. > :15:42.In Talgarreg, if you need to make a phone call,
:15:43. > :15:45.you'd be better off using one of these than one of these.
:15:46. > :15:48.It's a frustration felt by many people across Wales and now
:15:49. > :15:50.there are calls to change the planning rules so more
:15:51. > :16:00.Taller masts send the signal further.

:16:19. > :16:21.Mobile phone companies can put masts of up to 25 metres
:16:22. > :16:23.in England and it's only now the Welsh Government
:16:24. > :16:27.They then need to decide on their policy and then they need
:16:28. > :16:29.to legislate in order to bring about those changes.
:16:30. > :16:33.So I fear that Wales could be maybe up to 12 months behind England again
:16:34. > :16:37.The Welsh Government says it is taking a responsible approach
:16:38. > :16:39.and has commissioned research on the planning rules.
:16:40. > :16:41.It says it wants robust, reliable evidence before consulting

:20:00. > :20:01.for the sign for their Foodhall because it's not bilingual.
:20:02. > :20:08.Their planning chairman Jeff Smith says it has to be in both languages.
:20:09. > :20:10.Although it's one sign, it's very important in setting
:20:11. > :20:12.a toning giving an image of what M is about.
:20:13. > :20:16.And as a main part of the town, we'd like M to put up this sign
:20:17. > :20:18.bilingually and they will reap the benefits, like other
:20:19. > :20:27.businesses in the town, who also have bilingual signage.
:20:28. > :20:30.Marks and Spencer say The term "Foodhall" is part of their brand
:20:31. > :20:33.signage and is not translated in any of their stores, in Wales
:20:34. > :20:41.or overseas, as this picture from France shows.
:20:42. > :20:42.Many major stores have turned individual departments
:20:43. > :20:45.into their own shops and brands, not just Marks and
:20:46. > :20:51.Here in Aberystwyth, you have a Next Home,
:20:52. > :20:53.a recognised brand, so no Welsh translation.
:20:54. > :20:56.In Aberystwyth, I took a picture of the branded sign and asked
:20:57. > :20:58.people if they thought it needed translating.
:20:59. > :21:00.In this community, there's like a mixture of Welsh
:21:01. > :21:08.It should be in both, it would make it fair.
:21:09. > :21:12.But if I show you this, the argument now, M Foodhall is now a brand.
:21:13. > :21:14.So you'd have to put that in both languages.
:21:15. > :21:16.So you are thinking differently now then?
:21:17. > :21:23.It is a brand, that changes everything, doesn't it?
:21:24. > :21:27.They should have signs in English and Welsh.
:21:28. > :21:29.But the argument is, this is now a brand.
:21:30. > :21:31.Do you think that will work in Welsh as well?
:21:32. > :21:38.It's a small thing to do to keep a lot of people happy.
:21:39. > :21:40.Ceredigion Council will make a decision on the "Foodhall" sign
:21:41. > :21:46.before the store opens in the spring next year.
:21:47. > :21:48.A big night of FA Cup football for Newport County
:21:49. > :21:54.And what an incentive for County - if they win their replay
:21:55. > :21:56.tonight against Plymouth, they'll head to Anfield
:21:57. > :21:58.for a lucrative third round tie against Liverpool.
:21:59. > :22:00.The club says that game could be worth half a million pounds.
:22:01. > :22:02.Tonight's match is being held at Rodney Parade,
:22:03. > :22:05.but after problems with the pitch, the club isn't ruling out moving
:22:06. > :22:25.Rooted to the bottom of League 2, the FA Cup is a welcome distraction.
:22:26. > :22:30.A win against Plymouth tonight would guarantee Newport County a glamorous
:22:31. > :22:34.game against a Premier League side. A first-ever match against
:22:35. > :22:37.Liverpool. The manager has pulled off a giant-killing before,
:22:38. > :22:43.masterminding Newcastle United 's downfall when he was at Stevenage. I
:22:44. > :22:47.think you learn the FA Cup as a player and a manager and you learn
:22:48. > :22:52.what it takes to succeed. The most important things are give the car
:22:53. > :23:03.port it deserves and it deserves adventurous, forward-thinking
:23:04. > :23:08.football,. A good cup run can be a financial boost for a club of
:23:09. > :23:12.Newport 's size. Tonight 's game is televised. A win and then it is a
:23:13. > :23:16.trip to Anfield to face Liverpool where they will receive 45% of all
:23:17. > :23:22.the money generated from ticket sales. That could mean making half
:23:23. > :23:26.?1 million in just one night. Not bad for a club that turns over ?2
:23:27. > :23:32.million per year. Crucial them that tonight 's game goes ahead. The
:23:33. > :23:35.pitch is a real problem at Rodney Parade. Two rugby teams play
:23:36. > :23:41.year-round games have been abandoned. While it is committed to
:23:42. > :23:46.Rodney Parade for a further seven years, the club has not ruled out
:23:47. > :23:50.moving elsewhere if problems assist. I don't think you can rule out any
:23:51. > :23:54.options at the end of the day. We need to make sure we are doing the
:23:55. > :23:57.right thing. And if that right thing is going somewhere else and
:23:58. > :24:02.everything stacks up from a business case perspective, we will make the
:24:03. > :24:06.right decision for the club. Newport are taking no risks. A dome has been
:24:07. > :24:12.inflated to ensure the game is not a victim of the weather. A pivotal
:24:13. > :24:13.night ahead. A win could transform their finances and help turn around
:24:14. > :24:15.their season. Wales wing George North should not
:24:16. > :24:19.have been allowed back to the field of play after a his latest head
:24:20. > :24:21.injury while playing The player landed on his head
:24:22. > :24:25.during the game against Leicester and appeared to be lying motionless
:24:26. > :24:27.on the ground. After being assessed,
:24:28. > :24:29.he returned to the pitch. A review found it did not
:24:30. > :24:32."intentionally ignore The huge problem here
:24:33. > :24:42.is that the protocol that these players go through when they go off
:24:43. > :24:45.the field is not worth If you have to take
:24:46. > :24:49.a player off because... To have a concussion assessment,
:24:50. > :24:51.you must suspect concussion and he has to stay off
:24:52. > :24:53.and the regulations say that he must stay off the map
:24:54. > :24:56.but they are experimenting in that part of the game which is the most
:24:57. > :24:59.brutal, so when the player goes back, the impacts
:25:00. > :25:11.are going to be huge. Wales head coach Robyn
:25:12. > :25:13.McBride will be helped by Cardiff Blues head coach
:25:14. > :25:15.Danny Wilson and attack coach Matt Sherratt,
:25:16. > :25:17.as well as Scarlets backs coach, Stephen Jones, on next summer's tour

:25:36. > :25:39.solstice. Shortest daylight hours today. The weather is not very
:25:40. > :25:44.wintry but it will turn wet and very windy over the next few days.
:25:45. > :25:48.Especially on Friday. Tonight, anyway well clear. The odd spot
:25:49. > :25:53.possible but most places dry, allowing temperatures to drop
:25:54. > :26:02.further than recent nights. Falling close to freezing inland. Tomorrow,
:26:03. > :26:08.a lot of dry weather but a few scattered showers as well. Heavy in

:26:15. > :26:17.cooler than recent days. Five Celsius on Anglesey, nine in
:26:18. > :26:21.Cardiff. Overnight, winds will pick up and a deep area of low pressure
:26:22. > :26:27.will start to track between Iceland and Scotland. These are the first
:26:28. > :26:31.signs of Storm Barbara, the north and west of Scotland will bear the
:26:32. > :26:40.brunt of the severe gales but Northwest Wales is in the warning
:26:41. > :26:46.zone. Gusts of 70 mph are likely with the potential for travel
:26:47. > :26:49.destruction. These are the average wind speeds for Friday morning.
:26:50. > :26:58.Guests will be stronger. Outbreaks of heavy rain pushing in from the
:26:59. > :27:02.North West. That system should all clear through Friday night into
:27:03. > :27:07.Saturday morning. Still very blustery. Not quite as windy on
:27:08. > :27:11.Christmas Eve. Largely dry and breezy with sunny spells and just
:27:12. > :27:15.the odd shower and then more rain and a warning of strong winds
:27:16. > :27:20.overnight into Christmas Day. Mostly mild but wet and very windy at
:27:21. > :27:24.times. Turning drier, clear and colder later in the day. Very
:27:25. > :27:27.changeable weather heading into the Christmas weekend. Worth noting if
