Our headlines tonight: The first prisoners arrive

:00:00.:00:07.

at the new jail in Wrexham, now Britain's biggest prison.

:00:08.:00:09.

This is the first section of the prison to be opened. I will have a

look around to see Howard Webb prisoners will spend their

sentences. It opens as the prison service

is under pressure like never before. How can Berwyn avoid

the problems facing jails up Andrew Saunders, who murdered his

ex-girlfriend and her new partner outside the Matalan store in Cardiff

of crashes involving Is it time to stop them driving

why going underground maybe the solution to

:01:03.:01:06.

the daily congestion. It's Britain's biggest jail,

:01:07.:01:13.

and tonight the first prisoners have It has the capacity to house

:01:14.:01:23.

more than 2,000 inmates, There's been a long campaign to get

:01:24.:01:26.

a prison in North Wales, but the opening comes at a time

:01:27.:01:31.

when the Prison Service is under increasing pressure,

:01:32.:01:38.

and will the new site bring the economic benefits

:01:39.:01:40.

that it promised? The first of our reports tonight

:01:41.:01:42.

is from Matthew Richards, who spent In here this is a double room, you

:01:43.:01:55.

can obviously see there are two beds. Staff say that this is

:01:56.:02:08.

different prisons you have imagined. The living conditions were going to

:02:09.:02:11.

be superb here because it is brand-new but a lot of things have

:02:12.:02:14.

been thought out. There are advantages to a new build in that we

:02:15.:02:19.

can put Internet ports and so they can do education and things like

:02:20.:02:23.

that so it is a great tool to have if we want to rehabilitate someone

:02:24.:02:28.

rather than label them as being a prison. It opens at a time the

:02:29.:02:32.

prison service is under tremendous pressure. The majority of prisoners

:02:33.:02:38.

who come here will be category say, they have a lower locally good of

:02:39.:02:42.

escaping. They will be encouraged to work and gain qualifications and the

:02:43.:02:45.

design is meant to reduce tension. There are four flaws in this block

:02:46.:02:51.

divided by ceilings, which gives the men in a sense of a smaller

:02:52.:02:54.

community instead of the big imposing spaces you find in a

:02:55.:02:57.

Victorian jail. The government says the focus is setting prisoners of

:02:58.:03:03.

our positive future. It will be a readability of culture where the men

:03:04.:03:06.

here will have every opportunity to live law-abiding lives when

:03:07.:03:09.

released. Our staff understand their role is making sure we have that

:03:10.:03:14.

environment of rehabilitation and we will lead the men to have ambition

:03:15.:03:20.

and have a desire to lead their families in the future. The campaign

:03:21.:03:23.

to have a prison in Wales has been a long one with people arguing

:03:24.:03:28.

prisoner should be closer to their families.

:03:29.:03:36.

Michael Goldsmith from Menai Bridge was jailed for fraud in 2013

:03:37.:03:39.

and spent a year in Altcourse prison on Merseyside.

:03:40.:03:41.

He says family contact is crucial but not always easy to get.

:03:42.:03:44.

At the moment you can go anywhere in the country, they don't care. You

:03:45.:03:49.

get sentenced and you have done the crime and then you and your family

:03:50.:03:52.

are punished even more because they move you further away.

:03:53.:03:53.

The Welsh Secretary says there will be benefits

:03:54.:03:55.

It is about giving them opportunities when they leave they

:03:56.:04:02.

will have better skills and be more employable and if that can be

:04:03.:04:05.

delivered through the medium of the Welsh language them because it is in

:04:06.:04:08.

Wales and of course we will deliver on that and we are keen to answer

:04:09.:04:13.

the needs of every part of the United Kingdom and of course Wales

:04:14.:04:15.

is fundamental to that. But this protest by penal reform

:04:16.:04:18.

campaigners yesterday was designed to highlight the flaws they see

:04:19.:04:20.

in prisons like this. Building a way out of the current

:04:21.:04:30.

prison crisis is not the way forward. We actually need a

:04:31.:04:34.

full-scale programme of the castle Roshan and a reduction in the prison

:04:35.:04:38.

population because we know the vast majority of people in prison are not

:04:39.:04:40.

a danger to the community. The building work won't be

:04:41.:04:42.

completed until the summer. But the Ministry of Justice hopes it

:04:43.:04:44.

will play a key role In the last few hours the Ministry

:04:45.:04:47.

of Justice has won a High Court injunction blocking industrial

:04:48.:04:52.

action by prison staff, including those in Wrexham, which was due

:04:53.:04:53.

to begin tomorrow morning. It's the latest in a long list

:04:54.:04:58.

of issues to dog the prison service. post is part of the UK Government 's

:04:59.:05:17.

plan to update the prison estate because many prison date back to the

:05:18.:05:24.

Victorian era. Today's prison system is undoubtedly under pressure. What

:05:25.:05:27.

difference will this make? Well, complaints about

:05:28.:05:29.

overcrowding are widespread. Since 1991 the prison population

:05:30.:05:31.

in England and Wales has almost doubled from 45,000

:05:32.:05:34.

to more than 85,000. The vast majority of prisoners

:05:35.:05:37.

are housed in what the Ministry of Justice define as a good,

:05:38.:05:43.

decent standard of accommodation. There are more than 6,000

:05:44.:05:46.

inmates who aren't in such And, so Berwyn prison's more-than

:05:47.:05:48.

2,000 places isn't going to address We don't need new prisons, we need

:05:49.:06:08.

fewer prisoners. This is not going to help reduce crime, in fact it

:06:09.:06:11.

will probably make it worse. In the long run, in years to come, I will

:06:12.:06:16.

be talking to people in Wales to say that this prison is a disaster

:06:17.:06:22.

because it is overcrowded, under resourced and is infested with

:06:23.:06:23.

crime. Now, government ministers dispute

:06:24.:06:25.

that claim, but they can't argue with some of the problems seen

:06:26.:06:27.

in our prisons in recent months. These were the scenes

:06:28.:06:30.

at Birmingham Prison They were the worst prison

:06:31.:06:32.

riots seen for more Last year a record number of people

:06:33.:06:37.

killed themselves in Welsh and English prisons,

:06:38.:06:43.

self-harm incidents also reached a record high and assaults on staff

:06:44.:06:44.

were up 40% since the previous year. There is a correlation between

:06:45.:06:59.

reduce staffing levels and increasing violence and that

:07:00.:07:03.

combined with the introduction of psychoactive substances that get

:07:04.:07:07.

smuggled into Vales creates a tsunami of violence, drugs, weapons

:07:08.:07:12.

and instability. The positive thing is that this is on-time and on

:07:13.:07:14.

budget with a forward-thinking governor with ideas.

:07:15.:07:16.

And he'll need those fresh ideas if this new so-called super-prison

:07:17.:07:19.

Later we'll be looking at whether the building

:07:20.:07:25.

of the prison has delivered the economic benefits

:07:26.:07:26.

A man who murdered his ex-girlfriend and her new partner on Cardiff's

:07:27.:07:32.

main shopping street has been told he'll spend at least

:07:33.:07:34.

Andrew Saunders repeatedly stabbed 21-year-old Zoe Morgan

:07:35.:07:42.

and 33-year-old Lee Simmons outside the Matalan store where they worked

:07:43.:07:45.

The families of his victims say they feel the sentence is too lenient.

:07:46.:07:51.

Driven by jealousy, he spent days planning the attack. This CCTV shows

:07:52.:08:06.

Andrew Saunders making his way along Queen Street, intent on murder. The

:08:07.:08:11.

attack on the young couple was described by the judge today as a

:08:12.:08:18.

savage, senseless and sustained. This was a brutal, unprovoked and

:08:19.:08:23.

premeditated attack. Saunders attended the location well before

:08:24.:08:26.

Zoe Morgan and Lee Simmons that day, and ambushed them. The plastic bag

:08:27.:08:34.

conceals two knives bought from a supermarket. After days spent on the

:08:35.:08:39.

Internet researching how to kill. His actions left family is

:08:40.:08:43.

devastated. As a family we will never be able to express how we feel

:08:44.:08:46.

inside and the disappointment we feel at the leniency of the sentence

:08:47.:08:52.

passed day. We are all totally heartbroken and will miss our

:08:53.:08:55.

beautiful and intelligent governor rest of our lives. The whole family

:08:56.:09:00.

has been left devastated by this horrific and unprovoked crime. We

:09:01.:09:08.

have been deeply shocked by the violence of it. It has left a huge

:09:09.:09:15.

effect on both families. So we tried to protect a Liang Wen-chong failed

:09:16.:09:20.

she was chased by Saunders. She was a joy, a real joy. She was pretty

:09:21.:09:27.

with it. A terrible waste of life. On arrest Saunders told police he

:09:28.:09:30.

was sorry and he had stacked. His lawyers told police that at the time

:09:31.:09:34.

of the killings he was suicidal. The judge described his actions as

:09:35.:09:38.

savagely violent, telling him whatever your mental state, you took

:09:39.:09:43.

the lives of two people, you robbed the families of Lee Simmons and Zoe

:09:44.:09:47.

Morgan of a much loved son and a much loved daughter. Saunders was

:09:48.:09:55.

sentenced life and told he would serve a minimum of 23 years. The

:09:56.:09:56.

families say it is not enough. Friends of Trudy Jones

:09:57.:09:58.

from Blackwood, killed when a gunman open fire on a beach in Tunisia,

:09:59.:10:00.

have told BBC Wales more should have An inquest concluded today

:10:01.:10:03.

that she was unlawfully killed, along with 29 other

:10:04.:10:07.

British tourists. The court heard the Tunisian police

:10:08.:10:08.

response was shambolic at best. There was nothing to dislike about

:10:09.:10:25.

her because she was always just so lovely. You struggle all your life,

:10:26.:10:29.

bring your children up, have a little break, and sadly she didn't

:10:30.:10:34.

come back. Friends say more should have been done to try and save Trudy

:10:35.:10:38.

Jones, as a lone gunmen opened fire, trying to kill as many people as he

:10:39.:10:44.

could. The hotel she stayed at in a Tunisian resort was not ruled to

:10:45.:10:49.

have been neglectful today. The police response was described in

:10:50.:10:54.

court as shambolic at best and worst cowardly. The police have got a lot

:10:55.:11:00.

to answer for, the Tunisian police. Trudy 's family will never, ever

:11:01.:11:02.

come to terms with what has happened. Her friends, nobody. Some

:11:03.:11:08.

members of Trudy Jones family followed proceedings in London at a

:11:09.:11:11.

special private hearing here in Cardiff today, they told me they

:11:12.:11:17.

didn't want to comment. This is the nursing home where she used to work.

:11:18.:11:22.

She was remembered for bringing happiness and excitement to people's

:11:23.:11:26.

day. It is a lovely memory and it will always live on here. The

:11:27.:11:31.

residents to speak of her everyday. There is not one day she isn't

:11:32.:11:38.

mentioned here. By somebody. Matthew James was also shot that day, trying

:11:39.:11:43.

to protect his partner. Physical wounds may have healed but many are

:11:44.:11:49.

still suffering trauma. Trudy Jones was identified by distinctive nail

:11:50.:11:53.

varnish and dental records. It is not clear if her family will look to

:11:54.:11:57.

join others in pursuing further legal action against the holiday

:11:58.:12:02.

company. On this bench, her married name, just one reminder of a woman

:12:03.:12:07.

A Bangor University student who was threatened with deportation

:12:08.:12:11.

has been told she can remain in the UK temporarily.

:12:12.:12:13.

Shiromini Satkunarajah, who was born in Sri Lanka,

:12:14.:12:15.

She's been released from detention, but hasn't been given formal

:12:16.:12:21.

The Welsh Conservatives are calling for fundamental reform of the way

:12:22.:12:27.

the General Medical Council handles disciplinary and negligence cases.

:12:28.:12:29.

Five-year-old Ellie-May Clark from Newport died of an asthma

:12:30.:12:34.

attack two years ago, hours after a GP refused

:12:35.:12:36.

to see her because she was minutes late for an emergency appointment.

:12:37.:12:43.

Dr Joanna Rowe was given a warning by the GMC,

:12:44.:12:49.

which dealt with the case behind closed doors.

:12:50.:12:53.

The number of young people being killed or seriously injured

:12:54.:12:55.

on our roads has risen by 15% over the last three years.

:12:56.:12:58.

Wales has the highest proportion of crashes involving

:12:59.:13:00.

284 people between 16 and 24 have died or been injured since 2012

:13:01.:13:06.

It wants to introduce restrictions on new drivers until they build up

:13:07.:13:10.

This is Joe 's room. Pretty much untouched since it all happened.

:13:11.:13:27.

David and Andrea 's son Joe spent a month in a coma before he died

:13:28.:13:32.

following a car crash in Merthyr Tydfil in October 20 15. Two of his

:13:33.:13:37.

best friends were also killed in the crash, 18-year-old Rhys Jones at

:13:38.:13:40.

20-year-old Ryan Gibbons. The drive of their car, John Graham, was

:13:41.:13:47.

sentenced to ten months in jail, reduced to five, after admitting

:13:48.:13:49.

three counts of death by careless driving. The families are now

:13:50.:13:54.

campaigning for restrictions on new drivers as well as tougher

:13:55.:13:58.

guidelines and punishments. Whatever happens there has to be a deterrent

:13:59.:14:01.

to stop people doing it. I want my son to be remembered as a person, as

:14:02.:14:06.

with his friends, they were three fun loving kids with the whole world

:14:07.:14:12.

ahead of them. John Graham says he was deeply sorry but he didn't have

:14:13.:14:16.

any control over his sentence. The Welsh government wants to cut the

:14:17.:14:19.

numbers of people killed or seriously injured on the roads by

:14:20.:14:24.

40% by 2020. Good progress is being made but the latest figures show

:14:25.:14:28.

that 284 young people died or were seriously injured in 2015, and

:14:29.:14:35.

increasing 15% compared with 2012. The secretary responsible now wants

:14:36.:14:38.

to introduce graduated driver licenses to build up experience on

:14:39.:14:42.

the road before they carry passengers or drive at night.

:14:43.:14:48.

Graduated licences are the next big opportunity to drive down the number

:14:49.:14:51.

of young people that are killed or seriously injured, and we will be

:14:52.:14:57.

pressing, the UK Government, to enable us to introduce such a

:14:58.:15:02.

scheme. The UK Government is looking at changing the penalties for

:15:03.:15:04.

drivers who kill or injure but there are no plans to introduce graduated

:15:05.:15:09.

driver licenses at the moment. Any changes will come too late for the

:15:10.:15:12.

families of these boys but they still hope that something will be

:15:13.:15:14.

done to stop other young people being killed on the roads.

:15:15.:15:17.

Week In Week Out: Too Young, Too Fast, Too Soon?'

:15:18.:15:21.

Much more to come before 7.00pm: It's the biggest change

:15:22.:15:29.

The OECD says stick with the new curriculum.

:15:30.:15:37.

And the weather is looking pretty unsettled over the coming days,

:15:38.:15:39.

with a series of weather systems bringing rain in from the west.

:15:40.:15:47.

The M4 around Newport is not fit for purpose

:15:48.:15:50.

and problems will get worse, that's according to evidence heard

:15:51.:15:54.

at the opening of the public inquiry into the M4 relief road.

:15:55.:15:57.

It will consider a range of proposals to relieve congestion

:15:58.:16:00.

around the Brynglas Tunnels, including the Welsh Government's

:16:01.:16:02.

Our reporter Jordan Davies has been at the inquiry.

:16:03.:16:06.

Well, the inspector outlined the scale of the enquiry into this

:16:07.:16:22.

stretch of road behind me. There are now 22 separate proposals and the

:16:23.:16:25.

enquiry may take seven months -- five months, and it may take six

:16:26.:16:31.

months instead of five months. Some of these proposals are well

:16:32.:16:35.

publicised and others not so much, including a 40 mile tunnel which the

:16:36.:16:38.

inspector likened to the Channel Tunnel and the motorway would pass

:16:39.:16:42.

through that. The enquiry begins by looking at the Welsh government

:16:43.:16:46.

argument for the ?1 billion black crew, the new motorway that would

:16:47.:16:53.

run to the south of Newport. The Welsh government says the stretch of

:16:54.:16:55.

road behind me is not fit for purpose and the problems will only

:16:56.:17:00.

get worse. One witness for the Welsh government said they had already

:17:01.:17:05.

looked at 100 proposals over the years and none of those proposals

:17:06.:17:09.

before this have addressed the problem. The Welsh government says

:17:10.:17:14.

that the Black route will provide value for money and it will be

:17:15.:17:19.

essential to improving the Welsh economy and it will also improve the

:17:20.:17:24.

air quality in this area. What else do we expect to hear in

:17:25.:17:29.

the coming months? We expect to hear the many and

:17:30.:17:34.

varied opinions opposing the so-called black route, including

:17:35.:17:38.

from environmental and nature groups and large organisations like

:17:39.:17:43.

associated British Po -- port to own Newport docks. The black route will

:17:44.:17:50.

cross four sites of special scientific interest and nature

:17:51.:17:53.

groups are concerned that it will devastate the area. There is concern

:17:54.:17:59.

over the ?1 billion price tag and the sustainability of these

:18:00.:18:03.

so-called black route. The enquiry has begun a report in five or six

:18:04.:18:10.

months and it will be up to the Welsh government to make a decision

:18:11.:18:11.

based on that report. The organisation behind the PISA

:18:12.:18:13.

international school rankings says Wales should continue its radical

:18:14.:18:16.

reform of the school curriculum, but it needs to be supported

:18:17.:18:18.

by sustained investment in raising Our Education Correspondent

:18:19.:18:21.

Colette Hume reports. This is the new curriculum in

:18:22.:18:36.

action. It is a science lesson with a dash of maths and a side order of

:18:37.:18:40.

education in healthy eating added for good measure. This school is

:18:41.:18:46.

piloting the new curriculum. From 2021 this is what learning could

:18:47.:18:50.

look like across Wales. Education won't just be about what children

:18:51.:18:53.

know, it will also be about what they can do with what they know, and

:18:54.:18:57.

digital skills will take centre stage. The curriculum here in Wales

:18:58.:19:03.

is undergoing the biggest change in a generation, the way teachers teach

:19:04.:19:07.

and pupils learn is undergoing an massive overhaul. It is a massive

:19:08.:19:10.

change and a change that we are hoping will have positive effects on

:19:11.:19:14.

the students and allow them to develop skills which will be useful

:19:15.:19:19.

for employment in the future. Is the right thing to do? Last December the

:19:20.:19:24.

organisation for economic corporation and development unveiled

:19:25.:19:27.

the world School report, known as PISA. Every three years it ranks

:19:28.:19:34.

children from 60 cities and countries in reading, maths and

:19:35.:19:38.

science. For the past decade Wales has performed poorly, covering last

:19:39.:19:41.

out of the four home nations and below countries including Slovenia,

:19:42.:19:48.

Vietnam and Singapore. The Education Secretary asked the OECD to come to

:19:49.:19:52.

Wales and report on the changes in education, including the reform of

:19:53.:19:56.

the curriculum, plans to drive up teaching standards, and the creation

:19:57.:20:00.

of a new national academy to foster the next generation of headteachers.

:20:01.:20:05.

Today the OECD revealed its findings at a conference of headteachers from

:20:06.:20:09.

across the country. It says Wales is on the right track. The roof -- the

:20:10.:20:16.

move to a curriculum that is built around 21st-century skills, that is

:20:17.:20:19.

ambition, we don't see yet in the classroom but I think it is the

:20:20.:20:24.

right ambition to Wales to add to move forward. The OECD say our

:20:25.:20:28.

reforms and curriculum are exciting and exactly what our children need

:20:29.:20:33.

to do so our job now is to ensure the successful implementation.

:20:34.:20:45.

The planning phase. In a note of warning the OECD Council 's

:20:46.:20:55.

government ministers against trying to introduce yet more new education

:20:56.:20:59.

policies. You just four years' time learning in Wales could look very

:21:00.:21:00.

different. The office of Wales' best-selling

:21:01.:21:01.

daily newspaper, the Daily Post, will move from Llandudno Junction

:21:02.:21:03.

been told of the move, found out when the supermarket Lidl

issued a press release earlier saying it would be

in Wrexham has taken It's Britain biggest prison,

:21:39.:21:41.

but will it provide the sizeable boost to the local economy that has

:21:42.:21:46.

long been promised? Here's our Economics

Correspondent, Sarah Dickins. New cement lorries, ?1 million worth

of them, paid for by the contract this firm wants to supply concrete

:22:05.:22:09.

to build the present. It doubled its employees here to 24 when the prison

:22:10.:22:13.

work began and it is managing to keep them on because more work has

:22:14.:22:17.

followed. Paul Dunne has been buying vast amounts of concrete from here.

:22:18.:22:21.

He has had the job of making the concrete floors for the massive

:22:22.:22:26.

prison. This big job will come once so we wanted to keep it local and we

:22:27.:22:32.

have done with all the materials. We have kept everything local. Said the

:22:33.:22:36.

money goes round and round. The cement and sand and stone to make

:22:37.:22:40.

the concrete has all come from nearby businesses in North Wales. It

:22:41.:22:45.

has taken 2.5 years to build on a site big enough to house 65 football

pitches. From the start the developers of this prison promised

:22:50.:22:54.

that they would spend as much of the ?200 million as possible in the

:22:55.:22:59.

local economy and that is within 50 miles or one hour 's drive, anywhere

:23:00.:23:05.

between Stoke-on-Trent, Llandudno, Liverpool or Newtown. In reality

:23:06.:23:08.

more third -- more than a third of their spending has been with local

:23:09.:23:13.

businesses and in terms of small and medium-sized businesses they have

:23:14.:23:18.

spent ?80 million, not ?50 million. The challenge is to do that similar

:23:19.:23:21.

kind of spending when the prison is open. It seems very difficult at the

:23:22.:23:25.

moment to know how much the prison will be buying from local firms once

:23:26.:23:31.

it is fully up and running. This cafe was opened in the middle of

those prisoners will have families coming through to see them, they

:23:41.:23:43.

will not come through just to the prison, the train station is the top

:23:44.:23:48.

end of the town so they will travel through town to get to the train

:23:49.:23:51.

station on the bus station is around the corner so it has to benefit us,

:23:52.:23:58.

doesn't it? This firm has gained a reputation for supplying the prison

:23:59.:24:01.

and gained contracts on other projects but others may struggle to

:24:02.:24:05.

find similar work when the building is complete. The challenge for us as

:24:06.:24:11.

a region is to take the construction workforce and supply chain answers

:24:12.:24:14.

signpost them to other projects now in the region. Obviously we are

:24:15.:24:18.

seeing things like the new bypassing Caernarfon Underground work starting

:24:19.:24:23.

shortly and obviously if the tidal lagoon at Colwyn Bay comes off we

:24:24.:24:27.

have to programme is a region where these opportunities underlie within

:24:28.:24:32.

the supply chain. There will no doubt be some who think not enough

:24:33.:24:36.

money has been spent with businesses in North Wales but among those who

:24:37.:24:40.

have won contracts there seems to be a determination to keep as much of

:24:41.:24:43.

the work as possible with local Welsh businesses.

:24:44.:24:45.

Thank you. It has been out and we started the day on and we started

:24:46.:24:55.

the day on an icy note with frost and even snow at places. Tonight we

:24:56.:24:59.

have wintry showers to deal with but gradually they will clear and we can

:25:00.:25:04.

look forward to dry conditions overnight but it will be another

:25:05.:25:08.

cold night ahead. A few showers still lurking around, some heavy and

:25:09.:25:12.

wintry, but already something dry conditions overnight but it will be

:25:13.:25:14.

another cold night ahead. A few showers still lurking around, some

:25:15.:25:16.

heavy and wintry, but already something driver Anglesey. As we go

:25:17.:25:19.

through the night we will see frost forming and the potential for icy

:25:20.:25:22.

stretches. You will need to take care, especially on untreated

:25:23.:25:27.

services and it is a cold night but it shouldn't be as cold as the night

:25:28.:25:32.

just gone. Tomorrow is St David's Day and a dry start to the day and

:25:33.:25:35.

we look forward to sunshine but grab the umbrella as you had out because

:25:36.:25:38.

we have a weather front which will bring rain with it from the South as

:25:39.:25:43.

we head into the afternoon. It is also the first day of meteorological

:25:44.:25:47.

spring but it won't feel like it. It is chilly first thing and we have

:25:48.:25:50.

frost to deal with and some sunshine and then the rain pushes up from the

:25:51.:25:56.

south. Across parts of Wrexham and Denbighshire and Flintshire there I

is the best of the day and temperatures are nothing to write

:26:05.:26:08.

home about. The winds are lighter than today. Tomorrow night we have

:26:09.:26:13.

heavy rain to deal with and the potential for snow, especially on

:26:14.:26:17.

higher ground. Further south it is dry and the sky is clear and it will

:26:18.:26:21.

be another chilly night and where the skies do clear there is

:26:22.:26:25.

potential for frost form. Overnight lows get down about one. Towards the

:26:26.:26:30.

end of the week it is a messy picture. A series of weather systems

:26:31.:26:36.

bring with it wind and rain so it is looking rather unsettled towards the

:26:37.:26:39.

end of the week but it will feel less cold than recent days. As we

:26:40.:26:44.

head into Thursday it is a dry and bright star but a bit of a chilly

:26:45.:26:47.

start the morning and it won't last very long. We have more rain coming

:26:48.:26:52.

in from the West and the only positive is that it will feel less

:26:53.:26:55.

cold. Temperatures back up to double figures and reaching a high of ten.

:26:56.:26:59.

A blustery day as well and if that wasn't enough by the time we headed

:27:00.:27:03.

to Friday we have another band of rain coming in and this one is even

:27:04.:27:07.

heavier with the potential we could see some warnings released by the

:27:08.:27:10.

time we get to the end of the week. A mixture of sunshine and showers

:27:11.:27:12.

for the weekend. Back to you. The coroner at the inquest

been done to prevent her death. I'll have an update

:27:27.:27:33.

for you here at 8.00pm, From all of us on the

:27:34.:27:35.

programme, good evening. So, apparently Red Nose Day

:27:36.:27:46.

is back... Cool. So, we...

:27:47.:27:47.

We love Red Nose Day. Yes. So, Comic Relief have asked

:27:48.:27:49.

if we can help with a bit a reboot of the show.

:27:50.:27:53.

OK, cool. So, we... Like Brown Nose Day.

:27:54.:27:56.

Well, no, hang on. Apparently, the big thing this year

:27:57.:27:58.

is that it will actually be funny.
