These are Tuesday's headlinds. it. Now on BBC One we | :00:00. | :00:13. | |
Multi-million pound consult`nts for Jersey's government - | :00:14. | :00:15. | |
Womack is big costs to the public purse that perhaps on some occasions | :00:16. | :00:22. | |
could be avoided. From a ?15 million deficit | :00:23. | :00:25. | |
to balancing the books. Guernsey's financial fortunds | :00:26. | :00:27. | |
appear to be turning. the award-winning classes | :00:28. | :00:29. | |
for people with dementia. And after the 1819 breeze over the | :00:30. | :00:42. | |
last couple of days, quite ` big change come the weekend with a big | :00:43. | :00:47. | |
temperature drop. I will have all the details later in the programme. | :00:48. | :00:49. | |
I will have all the details later in the programme. | :00:50. | :00:53. | |
Next tonight, millions of pounds could have been saved by Jersey s | :00:54. | :00:56. | |
government if it had thought twice about hiring consultants. | :00:57. | :00:58. | |
The auditor's report also stggests the States isn't getting value | :00:59. | :01:00. | |
for money from experts and hsn't checking its homegrown talent | :01:01. | :01:03. | |
Big projects - like the new police station, changes to passports | :01:04. | :01:13. | |
and future hospital need expert help but it comes at a cost - | :01:14. | :01:24. | |
3.9 million spent last year on consultants alone | :01:25. | :01:26. | |
and I haven't seen evidence to suggest to enough research | :01:27. | :01:28. | |
was done to see if the resotrces and skills already existed | :01:29. | :01:31. | |
In the four years between 2011 and 2015 the States spent almost | :01:32. | :01:35. | |
The Chief Minister's department spent ?1.6 million | :01:36. | :01:38. | |
Health and Social services spent ?2 million. | :01:39. | :01:41. | |
The biggest spender was Infrastructure - | :01:42. | :01:44. | |
10 and a half million for projects including replacing the Bellozanne | :01:45. | :01:46. | |
When we're spending multio lillion pounds of taxpayers money its vital | :01:47. | :01:54. | |
we get the project right so the time spent with those consultants | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
who have the expertise is vhtal to deliver on time and on btdget | :01:58. | :02:00. | |
But according to the Audit office, it's not all been money well spent. | :02:01. | :02:08. | |
There isn't always the need to bring in a consultant. | :02:09. | :02:14. | |
An example today the environment minister asked about the public | :02:15. | :02:24. | |
states are hiding people without checking if civil servants have the | :02:25. | :02:33. | |
same skills. Many thousands of pounds will be spent on an hnspector | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
or consultants to look at an issue, it has already been discussdd by the | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
department, and the Departmdnt has the skill set to adjudicate. ( | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
suggested that millions of pounds could have been saved at a time of | :02:48. | :02:52. | |
austerity. The Chief ministdr declined an interview and the BBC | :02:53. | :02:55. | |
was told the states are not in the position to respond. | :02:56. | :02:58. | |
Guernsey's States will return tomorrow as they try to thr`sh | :02:59. | :03:00. | |
out the island's budget for the next year. | :03:01. | :03:03. | |
Today's debate began with ndws that what had looked like a bleak | :03:04. | :03:05. | |
financial outlook six months ago, is looking considerably | :03:06. | :03:07. | |
Our Political Reporter, Simon Fairclough has been | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
A financial picture that's looking brighter now | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
Initial fears that Guernsey could fall some ?15 million | :03:17. | :03:23. | |
into the red have been proved wrong, | :03:24. | :03:25. | |
mainly thanks to increased property sales and cutbacks | :03:26. | :03:28. | |
All of that is contributing to a much improved position for 20 6, | :03:29. | :03:37. | |
and it could even be that wd have a balance for 2016 which, | :03:38. | :03:40. | |
considering that we were looking at nearly 15 million in Jund | :03:41. | :03:42. | |
The news put the States on a positive footing | :03:43. | :03:47. | |
Responsible, fair, progressive and realistic. | :03:48. | :03:53. | |
The words use by Deputy Gavhn St Pier to describe the 2017 btdget. | :03:54. | :03:59. | |
And it looks as if Deputy St Piers largely going to get | :04:00. | :04:02. | |
things his own way - with an amendment placed thhs | :04:03. | :04:04. | |
morning to look at the posshbility of introducing motor tax narrowly | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
defeated and another propos`l to introduce some form of t`x | :04:10. | :04:12. | |
Attempts were made to fly the flag for pensioners, by keeping | :04:13. | :04:21. | |
a higher personal tax allowance for the over 65's. | :04:22. | :04:30. | |
The cost of living is higher for elderly islanders in Gudrnsey - | :04:31. | :04:33. | |
They do spend more on heating, they do spend more on medic`l | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
services, they do spend mord on house maintenance hat thdy can no | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
longer do themselves - and if we're not going to rdcognise | :04:41. | :04:43. | |
that, then what sort of society are we becoming? | :04:44. | :04:46. | |
It's hoped the 2017 budget will continue to keep Guernsey | :04:47. | :04:48. | |
on the right financial path for the next year. | :04:49. | :04:51. | |
Simon Fairclough, BBC Channel Islands News, Guernsey. | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
Jersey's government has dechded not to introduce a new voting | :04:57. | :04:58. | |
States Members felt that two systems ranking candidates in order | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
of preference on the ballot paper would be too complicated. | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
But as Lucy Bickerton reports, members of the public thought | :05:08. | :05:09. | |
It would be much worse in sxnc stand a better way of choosing people who | :05:10. | :05:24. | |
because at the moment I don't think because at the moment I don't think | :05:25. | :05:26. | |
the states represent the people The government may not | :05:27. | :05:29. | |
think it's a good idea - but these people in St Helidr today | :05:30. | :05:31. | |
wanted to see change. It might give a better picttre of | :05:32. | :05:39. | |
how people want to vote and how the candidate they are going to vote for | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
might stand a better chance than just first past the post. It allows | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
you to vote for someone you wouldn't normally vote for because it would | :05:49. | :05:51. | |
almost feel like a wasted vote. But what exactly was | :05:52. | :05:52. | |
the government voting on? Alternative Voting and Single | :05:53. | :05:54. | |
Transferable Voting see people rank their chosen candidates | :05:55. | :05:56. | |
in order of preference. If no candidate receives a certain | :05:57. | :05:58. | |
percentage of first choice votes - then second choices are considered - | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
and so on. Some believe it's fairer - | :06:04. | :06:05. | |
and could see different Crucially you would get less wasted | :06:06. | :06:13. | |
votes, people would not havd to vote tactically and they would sde some | :06:14. | :06:15. | |
getting elected and the -- that getting elected and the -- that | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
would be a much more common phenomenon on, so you would have | :06:20. | :06:22. | |
more enthusiasm for politics and greater representation. | :06:23. | :06:23. | |
But, critics argue that AV `nd STV can be misunderstood by votdrs. | :06:24. | :06:27. | |
But, despite much enthusiasl for change - when voters go | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
to cast their vote in the ftture, they'll be choosing just | :06:31. | :06:32. | |
Now, a sense of well-being, less pain and more confidence - | :06:33. | :06:42. | |
those are some of the benefhts reported by people with | :06:43. | :06:45. | |
dementia after they joined a Jersey swimming group. | :06:46. | :06:50. | |
The Splash Chat project combines therapy with conversation - | :06:51. | :06:52. | |
and it's been such a success, that it's won a major award. | :06:53. | :06:55. | |
These may be small strokes but this swimming group havd | :06:56. | :07:01. | |
People living with dementia and their carers spend 30 mhnutes | :07:02. | :07:06. | |
We've had feedback telling ts about how the group has bendfitted | :07:07. | :07:15. | |
physical health so people h`ve reported walking better, | :07:16. | :07:17. | |
reduced levels in pain, sleeping better, but overriding has | :07:18. | :07:19. | |
been the mental health improvements there's been observed levels | :07:20. | :07:22. | |
of increased happiness in pdople we have a lot of fun, | :07:23. | :07:24. | |
but a sense of well being so people are getting put socialising. | :07:25. | :07:27. | |
And that "living well" is pleasing the Jersey Alzheimer's Association. | :07:28. | :07:30. | |
Once the 'Splash' is over, the group go for a 'chat' and this | :07:31. | :07:33. | |
As a charity we're really campaigning for a dementia friendly | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
community and what that means is a community that accepts | :07:38. | :07:39. | |
and is inclusive for people with dementia so the fact that we're | :07:40. | :07:44. | |
using two community areas Aquasplash and then The bar | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
is a real true sense of that dementia friendly community. | :07:49. | :07:54. | |
Diana and Craig have been coming since July, | :07:55. | :07:56. | |
Craig's swimming has now improved and they are both | :07:57. | :07:58. | |
We used to swim a lot and lhke most people you bring up your falily | :07:59. | :08:06. | |
You come for the chat and the couples Coffey afterwards. The | :08:07. | :08:19. | |
Coffey encourages you, doesn't it? The Coffey encourages | :08:20. | :08:21. | |
you, doesn't it? And with the accolades heapdd | :08:22. | :08:22. | |
upon this award-winning swilming group, hopefully more smiles will be | :08:23. | :08:24. | |
created in future. Alderney's President | :08:25. | :08:30. | |
has been re-elected, Stuart Trought was the only name | :08:31. | :08:31. | |
on the ballot paper by the time Mr Trought - who has been | :08:32. | :08:37. | |
President of the States will enter his third | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
term in December. Sport now and Jersey's | :08:42. | :08:48. | |
cricketers hope to boost their chances of staying | :08:49. | :08:50. | |
in World League Four this evening. They're up against Italy | :08:51. | :08:52. | |
in their third match of the tournament in Los Angeles, | :08:53. | :08:54. | |
with both sides trying to gdt Our sports editor Tim Pryor sent | :08:55. | :08:57. | |
this report from California. Jersey's cricketers have re`d the | :08:58. | :09:13. | |
Hollywood script just yet, just a mile up the road. And opening-day | :09:14. | :09:18. | |
defeat to Oman by six wickets. It was followed a day later, again a | :09:19. | :09:24. | |
six wickets defeat, this tile against Denmark. Now jersey have a | :09:25. | :09:28. | |
big game against Italy next as the battle to survive in this dhvision. | :09:29. | :09:33. | |
And we will bring you the l`test result in the 1013 years. Whether | :09:34. | :09:39. | |
now and it definitely feels like it has been the mildest Novembdr day | :09:40. | :09:43. | |
that I can remember but how the next few days looking? | :09:44. | :09:49. | |
You're quite right, we have had some pretty good temperatures today. | :09:50. | :09:55. | |
Yesterday we got to 90 degrdes and I think we have had a similar sort of | :09:56. | :10:00. | |
day today. Perhaps not quitd warm. Tomorrow it is definitely going to | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
feel colder, quite misty conditions and perhaps we will get somd | :10:05. | :10:09. | |
sunshine. 18 degrees today `nd by Sunday we are back down with a bump | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
to just 10 degrees and I thhnk we will notice that big drop in the | :10:15. | :10:17. | |
territories. The reason for the changes the high pressure is | :10:18. | :10:21. | |
beginning to move away from us, not apparent for the next 24 hotrs or so | :10:22. | :10:25. | |
with a week whether from coling in around the head of that are` of high | :10:26. | :10:28. | |

weather front is break across the more central part of Britain, | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
already introducing more mohsture so misty in places. But denied the | :10:57. | :11:00. | |

will clear and it could takd until mid-morning till it is gone. The | :11:14. | :11:18. | |
more in the way of sunshine and the rest of the date dry with stnny | :11:19. | :11:22. | |
spells but for all of us temperatures at about 12 or 13 | :11:23. | :11:26. | |
degrees. Here are the times of high water, said Helier is 7:31al and St | :11:27. | :11:34. | |
Peter Port 7:44am. The coastal waters forecast the winds whll be in | :11:35. | :11:42. | |

somewhat persistent rain for a time on Friday, blustery winds of cold | :11:46. | :11:53. | |

How would you feel if gener`l waste was collected only once a fortnight? | :12:12. | :12:14. | |
There are fears that if these plans go ahead in Plymouth, | :12:15. | :12:17. | |
it will lead to more rubbish in the street and more flythpping. | :12:18. | :12:19. | |
The Conservative administration say those concerns are unfounded | :12:20. | :12:21. | |
as the service will be modernised with bins and cleansing teals | :12:22. | :12:24. | |
It's bin day in this part of Plymouth but these rounds probably | :12:25. | :12:32. | |
And some people think that plans to get rid of these weekly | :12:33. | :12:40. | |
It's going to be a bit tough because the bins | :12:41. | :12:47. | |
The only problem I can find is that it makes a mess in the | :12:48. | :12:51. | |
We have been sheds, but it would still smell. | :12:52. | :12:54. | |
Obviously, you would stack the bin bags are up, | :12:55. | :12:57. | |
It's just going to create more problems, | :12:58. | :13:02. | |
like, rats in the area. It's going to create bad smdlls | :13:03. | :13:05. | |
Councils will vote on the ndw scheme in the next week. | :13:06. | :13:09. | |
It will mean we cycle bulls being picked up one week | :13:10. | :13:12. | |
According to the woman in charge of bringing | :13:13. | :13:25. | |
the same, there were similar concerns when they introducdd it | :13:26. | :13:27. | |
For the first few months, people are unsure and that's | :13:28. | :13:31. | |
where we just need to make sure that we are working | :13:32. | :13:34. | |
We think this is the right step to take to get Plymouth | :13:35. | :13:38. | |
in the right place, to incrdase recycling and make | :13:39. | :13:40. | |
The project aims to save ?750,000 per year. | :13:41. | :13:43. | |
main goal is to make the city more green. | :13:44. | :13:50. | |
Currently, Plymouth's recycling rate is 33%, way below the | :13:51. | :13:52. | |
Here in Plymouth, people rely heavily | :13:53. | :13:56. | |
Areas such as this absolutely depend on it. | :13:57. | :14:00. | |
Cutting it will mean more w`ste out in the streets, more fly-tipping, | :14:01. | :14:02. | |
less hygiene, and that's something nobody wants. | :14:03. | :14:04. | |
Meanwhile, the Conservatives running the council | :14:05. | :14:06. | |
They're putting out leaflets against this, | :14:07. | :14:10. | |
Don't put out leaflets that are against it. | :14:11. | :14:17. | |
Come and work with others to see what you | :14:18. | :14:20. | |
want for your area, work for your local people and gdt better | :14:21. | :14:22. | |
Most English councils are further down | :14:23. | :14:25. | |
the road than Plymouth when it comes to fortnightly collections. | :14:26. | :14:29. | |
Threequarters already do it and some, | :14:30. | :14:31. | |
like East Devon, are rolling out three weekly collection. | :14:32. | :14:33. | |
We're going to jail in a molent - in fact you could go too with plans | :14:34. | :14:41. | |

It's not often that Bodmin Loor is the warmest place | :14:51. | :14:52. | |

All the details later in the programme. | :14:55. | :15:04. | |
The Environment Agency says many farmers are adding to flood risks | :15:05. | :15:06. | |
because they're not doing enough to care for the soil. | :15:07. | :15:09. | |
It says almost forty per cent of sites they have tested | :15:10. | :15:12. | |
across the region have problems with the earth | :15:13. | :15:15. | |
becoming too compressed, forcing rainwater onto | :15:16. | :15:17. | |
Our Environment Correspondent Adrian Campbell has been to | :15:18. | :15:22. | |
This is a familiar sight during a typical Southwest winter. | :15:23. | :15:34. | |
Water running off a muddy fheld straight onto a nearby road. | :15:35. | :15:37. | |
It's something the Environmdnt Agency says farmers | :15:38. | :15:39. | |
Richard Smith is one of the agencies soil experts. | :15:40. | :15:48. | |
It is a popular crop with f`rmers but one which involves the | :15:49. | :15:53. | |
use of heavy farming machindry, even when the soil is wet. | :15:54. | :15:57. | |
That can compact the soil, causing water to run off. | :15:58. | :16:01. | |
What we've got here is comp`ct soil and there's no air in | :16:02. | :16:04. | |
the soil. Very little air. | :16:05. | :16:07. | |
And, as a result, water hits the top and | :16:08. | :16:09. | |
It's difficult for it to soak into the soil. | :16:10. | :16:14. | |
and you will see how dense it is. | :16:15. | :16:19. | |
This kind of soil is hard for the roots of crops to pdnetrate, | :16:20. | :16:23. | |
meaning farmers often have to rely on more fertiliser to help dstablish | :16:24. | :16:26. | |
This is what they are growing in the field here. | :16:27. | :16:31. | |
This is what we're going to use to demonstrate the problem. | :16:32. | :16:35. | |
If I pour this, the water, see how quickly it flows over the | :16:36. | :16:41. | |
That could be going downstrdam, down the valley and | :16:42. | :16:44. | |
flooding someone's home, couldn't it? | :16:45. | :16:48. | |
It certainly could be running out the gateway | :16:49. | :16:51. | |
Ultimately, yes, it could go into people's houses. | :16:52. | :16:57. | |
We do the same here on this loose and bit, OK. | :16:58. | :16:59. | |
This crumbly, healthy soil is what farmers want. | :17:00. | :17:07. | |
The National farmers union says it's helping them to | :17:08. | :17:10. | |
We do know that from some of the sensitive | :17:11. | :17:13. | |
farming events that over 96$ of those that have attended have | :17:14. | :17:16. | |
looked to make changes as a result of what | :17:17. | :17:18. | |
they've learned, particularly with crops like maize. | :17:19. | :17:20. | |
The Environment Agency acknowledges the importance | :17:21. | :17:24. | |
of maize but says it must bd carefully managed to protect | :17:25. | :17:26. | |

a lot of time getting on the wrong side of the law. | :17:39. | :17:41. | |
Hence a large number of scenes, like this one, | :17:42. | :17:43. | |
take place inside Cornwall's most notorious prison - | :17:44. | :17:45. | |
I wish you justice, if there's any to be found. | :17:46. | :17:51. | |
Which there ain't. As we both know. | :17:52. | :17:55. | |
So luck it must be. For us both then. | :17:56. | :18:05. | |
Well, now, just like Ross, you could have the chance | :18:06. | :18:08. | |
of an extended stay at the real Bodmin Gaol. | :18:09. | :18:10. | |
The historic building has bden bought by a Russian businessman | :18:11. | :18:12. | |
Jane Chandler's been for a look around. | :18:13. | :18:19. | |
In opposing, ominous, an inviting. This was the county jail of Cornwall | :18:20. | :18:28. | |
for many years. It's thick `nd it was housed 200 prisoners. Now there | :18:29. | :18:35. | |
are plans to create 65 guest rooms in the prison cells. The lower two | :18:36. | :18:41. | |
floors will be transformed hnto a new museum attraction and the upper | :18:42. | :18:47. | |
three floors will be part of a 5 room hotel. I arrived on a wet day | :18:48. | :18:53. | |
and walked into this space. It just captivates you, really. It's a | :18:54. | :18:58. | |
cathedral like space but for prisoners so it has a strange, eerie | :18:59. | :19:04. | |
feel. It's an amazing space. A vision of how the jail could thrive | :19:05. | :19:08. | |
in the modern world came during a family visit by a Russian | :19:09. | :19:15. | |
businessman. It inspired hil to buy it. He wants to preserve history and | :19:16. | :19:25. | |
for guests to enjoy it. At last there is somebody around thhs with | :19:26. | :19:31. | |
the will and the gumption to preserve history. If all gods | :19:32. | :19:40. | |
according to plan, it could be open within five years. Better book now. | :19:41. | :19:47. | |

Many of us will remember a teacher from school - | :19:50. | :19:51. | |
someone who influenced us, and sometimes we remember them, | :19:52. | :19:53. | |
But a head teacher from Devon has been hailed as one of | :19:54. | :19:58. | |
Jane English picked up a prdstigious Pearson teaching award | :19:59. | :20:03. | |
at a ceremony in London, after 34 years at Paignton Community | :20:04. | :20:06. | |
Scott Bingham went along to find out why she's dedicated her carder | :20:07. | :20:10. | |
The winner, from Paignton community and sports academy... | :20:11. | :20:17. | |
As soon is they said Paignton, I knew instantly | :20:18. | :20:20. | |
that I had won. I mean, I was so excited. | :20:21. | :20:22. | |
It was just such a privilege and a pleasure. | :20:23. | :20:30. | |
After last week's glittering ceremony, Jane English | :20:31. | :20:34. | |
where it all began as a PE teacher | :20:35. | :20:41. | |
She proudly showed me some of those achievements, including the | :20:42. | :20:45. | |
If you ask me about what do I think of most when I | :20:46. | :20:50. | |
think of the achievements we've made, it's the young people. | :20:51. | :20:53. | |
I can go walking in the supermarket, | :20:54. | :20:56. | |
or in the town of and somebody will tap | :20:57. | :21:05. | |
me on the shoulder and say, | :21:06. | :21:13. | |
"I just need to speak to you for a minute." | :21:14. | :21:15. | |
I just need to tell you and I feel wonderful stories of young people | :21:16. | :21:18. | |
Ad one of those young peopld is Hugh Maynard, now a | :21:19. | :21:24. | |
Jane English has taught three generations of some | :21:25. | :21:27. | |
local families and staff, p`rents and pupils are rightly proud of her | :21:28. | :21:30. | |
She's not like other headteachers who just sit in an | :21:31. | :21:33. | |
You can actually see her and she's walking | :21:34. | :21:36. | |
around and she's really friendly to people. | :21:37. | :21:38. | |
I haven't seen many teachers that have been at one school for so | :21:39. | :21:41. | |
long and how much determination and passion she is put into one school, | :21:42. | :21:44. | |
I can honestly say, I've enjoyed every single d`y. | :21:45. | :21:47. | |
Jane plans to retire next E`ster but won't quit education | :21:48. | :21:50. | |
She hopes to continue her work overseas with the British | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
What lovely tributes from the pupils. Obviously very proud of | :21:55. | :22:05. | |
their headteacher and rightly so. It's Exeter's biggest horse race | :22:06. | :22:10. | |
of the year and today the Haldon Gold Cup produced | :22:11. | :22:12. | |
a finish to match its status. A 10/1 outsider beat the favourite | :22:13. | :22:19. | |
by the narrowest of margins. That was good news for | :22:20. | :22:21. | |
the bookies but also for those We sent Hamish Marshall to sample | :22:22. | :22:24. | |
Gold Cup day at Exeter. All roads lead to the races. | :22:25. | :22:28. | |
And trying to beat the bookhe. This is the most prize monex | :22:29. | :22:31. | |
for any fixture all year. Obviously, as you can see, we get | :22:32. | :22:43. | |
plenty of people to come and enjoy it as well | :22:44. | :22:49. | |
so it's a great day for us. As the form's assessed, | :22:50. | :22:52. | |
there's a big question, It's a lovely day. | :22:53. | :22:54. | |
Always good racing up here. So, yes. | :22:55. | :22:57. | |
Looking forward to it. You've got your race card there | :22:58. | :22:58. | |
what do you think? I think Resolution Bay | :22:59. | :23:03. | |
will win this today. Backing him with a decent alount | :23:04. | :23:05. | |
of money? I may be. | :23:06. | :23:07. | |
We'll have to see. I better not say as | :23:08. | :23:10. | |
the wife might hear. And others were backing a previous | :23:11. | :23:13. | |
winner of the top This is the one they are | :23:14. | :23:16. | |
putting their faith in. Dodging Bullets was in great form | :23:17. | :23:20. | |
two seasons ago, not so much last season, will it be able | :23:21. | :23:23. | |
to repay the faith Just over a lap of a track | :23:24. | :23:25. | |
saw Dodging Bullets finished third, two others fought | :23:26. | :23:34. | |
out a titanic battle for first place Not a lot. | :23:35. | :23:38. | |
About 25 quid, or so. I thought it wouldn't be | :23:39. | :23:59. | |
out of the first three. And it was a first big win | :24:00. | :24:04. | |
for Sir Valentino's I wasn't too confident when I passed | :24:05. | :24:06. | |
the line but Richard said well done, I thought he'd h`ve more | :24:07. | :24:12. | |
experience than I but... Yeah. | :24:13. | :24:15. | |
It's tough. No matter how confident you are | :24:16. | :24:18. | |
It's always tough. I think Hamish was tipping Dodging | :24:19. | :24:36. | |
Bullets. I hope you didn't put any money on it. A lovely day today | :24:37. | :24:45. | |
Not often that Cornwall gets the highest temperature of anywhere in | :24:46. | :24:52. | |
the country but it did todax. Unusual to CDs temperatures on the | :24:53. | :24:57. | |
first day of November. Sadlx, it's the last time we're going to CDs | :24:58. | :25:03. | |
figures for some time. Colddr air is heading our way. By the timd we get | :25:04. | :25:11. | |
to Sunday, back down with a bump. Just nine degrees. We've got an area | :25:12. | :25:16. | |
of low pressure developing over the next 24 hours, or so. Tomorrow, a | :25:17. | :25:23. | |
cold start. A touch of Frost but mostly fine weather. The ch`nge is | :25:24. | :25:29. | |
being brought about by this weather front. It sinks steadily sotth | :25:30. | :25:34. | |
tonight. Moving steadily into northern France. All the whhle, | :25:35. | :25:44. | |
followed by colder air. Pretty good until the next weather systdm | :25:45. | :25:49. | |
arrives. It brings them patchy rain. By the time we get to Fridax, we've | :25:50. | :25:54. | |
got an area of low pressure across the British Isles and colder air | :25:55. | :25:58. | |
will follow for the weekend. Saturday and Sunday, colder air for | :25:59. | :26:04. | |
all abuzz and quite blusterx conditions. There's that laxer of | :26:05. | :26:12. | |
cloud in more detail continting its journey southwards. A lot of low | :26:13. | :26:18. | |
cloud and misty conditions for a time. The last three hours before | :26:19. | :26:24. | |
light in the morning we see the cloud clear and where we get that | :26:25. | :26:31. | |
clear sky, it means temperatures will quickly tumbled to between one | :26:32. | :26:39. | |
and three degrees, cold enotgh for some frost to form. Tomorrow, | :26:40. | :26:45. | |
certainly a day when we will need a jumper. Quite a drop in | :26:46. | :26:52. | |
temperatures. A top figure of just 11-12 Celsius. For the Isles of | :26:53. | :26:59. | |
Scilly, bright and dry but feeling colder. Not much for our surfers. | :27:00. | :27:21. | |
We are back to normal by thd end of the week and into the weekend. | :27:22. | :27:28. | |
Northerly winds and temperatures between ten and 12 Celsius. Have a | :27:29. | :27:36. | |
good week. Thanks for your d-mails on bin collections. Many of you | :27:37. | :27:40. | |
saying fortnightly collections aren't a problem. We will sde you | :27:41. | :27:46. | |
later this evening in the l`te bulletin. Until then, good night. | :27:47. | :27:48. |
