Good evening, I'm Charlie McArdle. had then we would not them. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Welcome to BBC Channel Islands. These are Thursday's headlines. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
The cost of living in Jersey - food, fuel and household bills | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
are pushing up inflation to a five year high. | :00:08. | :00:14. | |
My bill at the Co-op seems to have gone up from 42 sometimes ?60. I | :00:15. | :00:24. | |
think people are buying food on the Internet now! | :00:25. | :00:25. | |
Meanwhile the size of these buses in Guernsey | :00:26. | :00:27. | |
is shrinking and becoming more environmentally friendly. | :00:28. | :00:29. | |
And an act of God creates an opportunity: | :00:30. | :00:30. | |
a watertight future for Alderney's St Anne's church. | :00:31. | :00:39. | |
And this Easter weather looks like it will be quite kind to us. Rather | :00:40. | :00:44. | |
cool, mainly dry and generally quiet. All the details later in the | :00:45. | :00:47. | |
programme. Food, fuel and household bills have | :00:48. | :00:51. | |
all driven up the cost Inflation is at 3%, the highest | :00:52. | :00:55. | |
for almost five years. Although it's always | :00:56. | :01:00. | |
influenced by global prices, it's thought Brexit could be | :01:01. | :01:03. | |
the driving factor, Living in Jersey has | :01:04. | :01:05. | |
got more expensive. But are people on the street | :01:06. | :01:10. | |
feeling the pinch? I think things are getting more | :01:11. | :01:22. | |
expensive. Particularly food. Definitely. Having people's wages | :01:23. | :01:28. | |
don't reflect that. My bill at the Co-op seems to have gone up from 40 | :01:29. | :01:31. | |
to ?50 and sometimes 60. Overall inflation is 2.9%, | :01:32. | :01:32. | |
the highest rate since 2012. The driving factors | :01:33. | :01:34. | |
behind the increase are: A hike in domestic oil made fuel | :01:35. | :01:38. | |
costs rise by ten percent. Telephone bills and school fees | :01:39. | :01:41. | |
helped push up the price And we've seen a rise in food such | :01:42. | :01:44. | |
as fish and vegetables Retailers and businesses | :01:45. | :01:48. | |
are blaming it on Brexit. Unfortunately what we are seeing | :01:49. | :01:58. | |
is those cost prices being increased because of the impact | :01:59. | :02:00. | |
of the devaluation of the sterling. We import a lot of goods, | :02:01. | :02:03. | |
not only into the island but into the UK and a lot of people | :02:04. | :02:06. | |
are trading currencies whether they are purchasing | :02:07. | :02:08. | |
those from overseas. That's making it more difficult, | :02:09. | :02:10. | |
suppliers are passing on those cost Which end up more often than not | :02:11. | :02:13. | |
passed on to the customer. Citizen's advice say islanders may | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
need to shop around more. You can shop and be | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
competitive and find That's something you can control | :02:24. | :02:24. | |
is exactly how much you spend, but of course inflation is very | :02:25. | :02:29. | |
rarely driven by one factor there's normally a number of factors and it | :02:30. | :02:33. | |
seems to be a couple of external factors that are driving | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
inflation up that really No-one was available | :02:39. | :02:40. | |
from the Treasury Department to comment on camera, | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
but in a statement they said: It is slightly disappointing | :02:46. | :02:49. | |
that it is as high as it is. It is slightly higher than | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
the Fiscal Policy Panel predicted. But they were not | :02:54. | :02:55. | |
significantly wrong. I think in the long term, | :02:56. | :02:58. | |
once we know where we are going with Brexit, it might | :02:59. | :03:01. | |
come back down. But until then, people in Jersey may | :03:02. | :03:03. | |
have to navigate through more cost increases predicted | :03:04. | :03:06. | |
in the near future. New buses are set to roll out | :03:07. | :03:15. | |
on Guernsey's roads next month. They're shorter and narrower | :03:16. | :03:18. | |
than the existing fleet. And it's claimed the 12 vehicles | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
will be more environmentally friendly even though they'll | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
still be pumping out diesel fumes. When it comes to Guernsey's | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
buses, size matters. And the island's newest arrivals | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
will be 7cm narrower and over Here's one of them, | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
a new look for a new fleet. These smaller buses are promising | :03:39. | :03:44. | |
to improve the passenger experience with high-backed seats, | :03:45. | :03:47. | |
USB chargers and increased headroom They'll be running on diesel | :03:48. | :03:50. | |
at a time when many see the end Milton Keynes has been | :03:51. | :03:57. | |
using electric buses And the Mayor of London has pledged | :03:58. | :04:01. | |
to stop buying pure diesel In fact the company providing | :04:02. | :04:07. | |
Guernsey's new buses is testing a double decker hydrogen powered | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
bus in London. The 12 buses cost more | :04:12. | :04:19. | |
than ?1.5 million pounds. They're the first part | :04:20. | :04:21. | |
of a phased replacement And the man responsible | :04:22. | :04:23. | |
for Guernsey's buses says zero emission buses may be purchased | :04:24. | :04:26. | |
in the next phase. What we want to do the next time is | :04:27. | :04:37. | |
find an electric vehicle and technology has moved on from 2013, | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
we know that battery life has increased so it is a real | :04:41. | :04:43. | |
possibility even at stage to stage three. | :04:44. | :04:44. | |
So what do bus users make of the new vehicles? | :04:45. | :04:47. | |
Well they're very happy about the prospect. | :04:48. | :04:49. | |
If you're a cyclist behind current diesels it's a pretty unpleasant | :04:50. | :04:55. | |
experience. There should be a marked improvement. | :04:56. | :04:56. | |
If everything goes according to plan then the new buses will be | :04:57. | :04:59. | |
A 39-year old man has been jailed for six years | :05:00. | :05:06. | |
by the Royal Court for smuggling nearly three thousand pounds worth | :05:07. | :05:09. | |
of ecstasy into Jersey Andrew David Edward Jones from Liverpool told | :05:10. | :05:11. | |
customs officers he was visiting the island to deliver Christmas | :05:12. | :05:14. | |
An X-ray revealed a package in his stomach containing | :05:15. | :05:24. | |
Jersey's Chief Minister is to meet the St Helier lifeboat crew | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
to discuss their dispute with the RNLI. | :05:29. | :05:31. | |
All 25 volunteers resigned in support of their skipper | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
Former crew member Paul Battrick wrote to the Council of Ministers | :05:36. | :05:40. | |
The Assistant Chief Minister, Senator Paul Routier says | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
the council fully supports the lifeboat crew and is arranging | :05:46. | :05:49. | |
Senator Ian Gorst's meeting with them. | :05:50. | :05:56. | |
A ?1 million project to repair storm damage at St Anne's Church | :05:57. | :05:59. | |
The roof was extensively damaged during a particularly | :06:00. | :06:02. | |
While the damage was covered by insurance, | :06:03. | :06:05. | |
the States of Alderney, which owns the church, | :06:06. | :06:07. | |
took the opportunity to renovate the roof, | :06:08. | :06:09. | |
For the past six months St Anne's Church has been | :06:10. | :06:16. | |
shrouded in scaffolding - but the extensive renovations have | :06:17. | :06:19. | |
It's taken around 10,000 slates, and nearly a million pounds | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
to restore the historic building that is owned by the | :06:25. | :06:27. | |
While this is the most expensive renovation but it is certainly | :06:28. | :06:33. | |
Following the German Occupation, Islanders returned to find | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
St Anne's Church in a sorry state of repair. | :06:39. | :06:45. | |
My father and my father who were running the building business at the | :06:46. | :06:51. | |
time actually offered the Labour free where the states actually | :06:52. | :06:56. | |
funded the repairs and the materials, but there was a great | :06:57. | :06:59. | |
deal to do after the war to put it back. And my father, it was his | :07:00. | :07:04. | |
driving ambition to see the church restored as it was when it was | :07:05. | :07:09. | |
built. And he did that up until his dying day. | :07:10. | :07:10. | |
For many people, St Anne's is still the centre | :07:11. | :07:12. | |
The community events he, births, marriages and deaths of course but | :07:13. | :07:22. | |
also concerts, and I think everybody at some point will be utilising the | :07:23. | :07:28. | |
church for either enjoyment or family reasons, so yes it is still | :07:29. | :07:31. | |
the hub of the community. Having made it wind and watertight, | :07:32. | :07:32. | |
the next phase of the restoration is to make good the damage | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
to the interior of the church. A rare pistol - which had been | :07:36. | :07:42. | |
undiscovered for almost 350 years - has been found by a metal | :07:43. | :07:45. | |
detectorist in Jersey. And even more surprisingly - | :07:46. | :07:50. | |
it's in remarkably good condition. Tony Collins made the discovery | :07:51. | :07:53. | |
on a cold Sunday in February but it has taken until now | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
to understand its significance. Well, not today but perhaps four | :07:58. | :07:59. | |
centuries ago this pistol would have been in the hands of a wealthy | :08:00. | :08:09. | |
merchant. At the time they were so expensive | :08:10. | :08:14. | |
they would always have been cared for far more than something | :08:15. | :08:17. | |
from the army. So there are certainly tens of these | :08:18. | :08:19. | |
at least in collections in Britain but it's the first one I know | :08:20. | :08:22. | |
of that's been recovered from a shipwreck or well | :08:23. | :08:25. | |
from the beach at least. And that discovery was | :08:26. | :08:27. | |
made by Tony Collins. He was out in St Aubins bay | :08:28. | :08:30. | |
when he found the pistol deep in the airlocked sand | :08:31. | :08:33. | |
and covered by crusteations. He knew immediately | :08:34. | :08:35. | |
that it was significant. What gave it was the octagonal | :08:36. | :08:42. | |
barrel normally the barrels are round like I was thinking later | :08:43. | :08:44. | |
musket pistols about 1700's - 1800's And the wooden stock of the actual | :08:45. | :08:47. | |
pistol is all carved and I thought better leave that as it is and don't | :08:48. | :08:54. | |
knock it anymore let's pass Since then it's been | :08:55. | :09:00. | |
in a saline solution It was later confirmed it was likely | :09:01. | :09:03. | |
to be from the early 17th century. If you asked me to list ten things | :09:04. | :09:08. | |
you'd never find that The idea of a pistol 350 - | :09:09. | :09:12. | |
400 years old with it's iron mechanism and barrel surviving | :09:13. | :09:16. | |
in sea water that time I would have said was incredibly rare | :09:17. | :09:19. | |
and there really aren't that many So it look like this gun will go | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
down in history as another great Well, it's finally the bank holiday | :09:24. | :09:30. | |
weekend and if like me you want to know what the weather | :09:31. | :09:39. | |
will be like, David, no pressure this the one | :09:40. | :09:41. | |
we've all been waiting for. hello. To start with we have some | :09:42. | :09:58. | |
calm weather, some cloud around, predominantly dry not particularly | :09:59. | :10:03. | |
good news for farmers and growers but sunshine as well. You've been | :10:04. | :10:07. | |
taking pictures again. This is one of our Weather Watchers, some | :10:08. | :10:10. | |
glorious sunrises and sunsets over the last couple of days. More cloud | :10:11. | :10:13. | |
coming our way, taking its time to arrive. Tomorrow is another bright | :10:14. | :10:18. | |
and dry day and becomes rather cloudy and, late in the day, we will | :10:19. | :10:23. | |
see a view shower so most of Good Friday is likely to be bright and | :10:24. | :10:25. | |
dry. The reason for the settled weather is this area of high | :10:26. | :10:30. | |
pressure. It moves around a bit over the next few days, opening the door | :10:31. | :10:33. | |
to a couple of weather fronts coming from the north-west late in the day | :10:34. | :10:36. | |
tomorrow but it's still has an influence and is back again by the | :10:37. | :10:42. | |
time we get to Saturday. A couple of weather systems claiming us first | :10:43. | :10:45. | |
thing on Saturday morning, cloud breaking up to sunny spells and a | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
cool breeze, no doubt about that from the north-west, and Easter Day | :10:50. | :10:52. | |
Easter Sunday, at high pressure going to be reasonably close by. | :10:53. | :10:57. | |
Quite weather, settled weather, and some sunshine. The cloud is patchy | :10:58. | :11:04. | |
upwind of us at the moment so overnight that will continue. Patchy | :11:05. | :11:07. | |
cloud, some clear skies, and temperatures just getting into | :11:08. | :11:09. | |
single figures of eight or 9 degrees. Maura breeze on the | :11:10. | :11:15. | |
north-west developing. Tomorrow a largely fine day, maybe more cloud | :11:16. | :11:19. | |
than we would like, some sunny spells through the morning into the | :11:20. | :11:23. | |
afternoon, and then thicker cloud coming from the north-west very late | :11:24. | :11:28. | |
in the day. 13th of the top amateur, that's 55 Fahrenheit. Here are times | :11:29. | :11:34. | |
of five or -- high water. Not much for our surfers, choppy as well with | :11:35. | :11:38. | |
the wind is coming in from the north-west, and coastal waters | :11:39. | :11:43. | |
forecast west north-west elite force for, backing Westerly later. The | :11:44. | :11:46. | |
forecast will be weakened to were cloudy at first on Saturday, | :11:47. | :11:49. | |
brightening up on Sunday and Monday look fine. | :11:50. | :11:52. | |
Remember throughout the bank holiday weekend the BBC will keep up to date | :11:53. | :11:55. | |
with your local news weather and travel. | :11:56. | :11:57. | |
There'll be regular bulletins and any breaking news | :11:58. | :11:59. | |
on BBC Radio Guernsey and Jersey from six in the morning. | :12:00. | :12:03. | |
Also online - find your local page at bbc.co.uk. | :12:04. | :12:08. | |
I'll be back with an update at eight and 10.30 and this programme will be | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
This would be the icing on the cake. To do it at 31, it has come later | :12:12. | :12:24. | |
than I hoped, but it would be fantastic for me to get a promotion. | :12:25. | :12:27. | |
Mathematically, Torquay could be relegated from the National League | :12:28. | :12:29. | |
this weekend if they lose both their games and other | :12:30. | :12:31. | |
They're at leaders Lincoln tomorrow and then at home | :12:32. | :12:35. | |
to Braintree on Monday, who're one place above them. | :12:36. | :12:37. | |
Last year the Gulls were in a similar position and survived, | :12:38. | :12:40. | |
and their manager thinks they can do it again. | :12:41. | :12:48. | |
Right now it looks like the penny has dropped, they are picking things | :12:49. | :12:54. | |
up, taking on board the information I am giving them, they are | :12:55. | :12:58. | |
executing. If they can do that for the next four games, they have | :12:59. | :13:02. | |
learned from that experience, and we will have a fighting chance. But it | :13:03. | :13:07. | |
is fine margins. We need to take it one at a time, which is why you will | :13:08. | :13:09. | |
always get that same answer. After sealing a play-off place last | :13:10. | :13:11. | |
weekend, the Exeter Chiefs now want to secure a home semi-final | :13:12. | :13:13. | |
with a top-two finish. We have got a semifinal place now, | :13:14. | :13:25. | |
sometimes we need to remember that, and a lot of what needs to happen is | :13:26. | :13:30. | |
is making sure that mentally and physically we are where we need to | :13:31. | :13:34. | |
be. Whether that is home or away is not the biggest issue. I would love | :13:35. | :13:39. | |
it to be at home, primarily because it is able board for the players and | :13:40. | :13:40. | |
the supporters. And it's the last game of the season | :13:41. | :13:42. | |
for our Championship sides. The Pirates are at home to Bedford, | :13:43. | :13:45. | |
while Jersey host Richmond. And, where one season ends, | :13:46. | :13:47. | |
another one starts. Somerset begin their County | :13:48. | :13:49. | |
Championship campaign tomorrow. If they can go one better | :13:50. | :13:51. | |
than last summer and bring the title back to Taunton, | :13:52. | :13:54. | |
Devon will have played its part, Ben Green, 19, from Exeter. Jamie | :13:55. | :14:17. | |
over ten, from North Devon. I had to think about it! Lewis Gregory, 24, | :14:18. | :14:25. | |
from Plymouth. Don Bass, 19, from Sid Worth. Greg Overton, 22, also | :14:26. | :14:30. | |
from North Devon. I want to find out who the best | :14:31. | :14:41. | |
all-rounder is, on and off the field. It is up to you to decide. | :14:42. | :14:52. | |
It is very easy. Jamie Overton, hands down, terrible. The Flymo? You | :14:53. | :15:09. | |
do well! Not the nicest bunch of lads. I will have to go with Jamie, | :15:10. | :15:21. | |
just to get a bit of own back. I fancy my chances, because I do not | :15:22. | :15:29. | |
turn the ball. I give myself it. Probably Lewis, he is so short. | :15:30. | :15:42. | |
Massive melon, mate, no one else can fit in. If it is a standard | :15:43. | :15:49. | |
elevator, probably him, because nothing much can fit in apart from | :15:50. | :15:50. | |
his head. The results are in. Good news for | :15:51. | :16:02. | |
one of the, bad news for one of you, and the bad news is for Ben Green. | :16:03. | :16:10. | |
According to your team-mates, you are the worst all-rounder on and off | :16:11. | :16:16. | |
the field. The winner, he has a century, Lewis Gregory. | :16:17. | :16:25. | |
He is pretty proud of that. They are lovely. Five from Devon. | :16:26. | :16:29. | |
It is great that the cricket season is back. | :16:30. | :16:30. | |
You know it is summer. As the Easter weekend approaches, | :16:31. | :16:32. | |
David White has been out and about, tracking down events to keep | :16:33. | :16:35. | |
the family entertained Tonight he joins us from the Maundy | :16:36. | :16:37. | |
Day service at Truro Cathedral, the first of a series of services | :16:38. | :16:40. | |
being held to mark Easter. We are having a quick game of spot | :16:41. | :16:54. | |
the odd one out. I hope it is not too difficult. They said, you can | :16:55. | :16:59. | |
stand with the choir, but absolutely no singing. No syncing. Last week I | :17:00. | :17:07. | |
was in a big top, this week I am indeed beautiful surroundings of | :17:08. | :17:10. | |
Truro Cathedral, and there is a service taking place denied. This | :17:11. | :17:17. | |
kicks off your Easter celebrations. Yes, it is the Maundy Thursday | :17:18. | :17:22. | |
celebrations, the celebration of the institution of the Last Supper, | :17:23. | :17:24. | |
where Jesus began the holy Communion. It is followed by the | :17:25. | :17:29. | |
watch, which resembles the watch that Jesus had in Gethsemane, with | :17:30. | :17:34. | |
his disciples will stop tomorrow we have all of the drama of the Good | :17:35. | :17:38. | |
Friday services, and that leads up to the joy of Easter Day itself on | :17:39. | :17:43. | |
Sunday. The breaking of the bread and wine tonight, and everybody has | :17:44. | :17:46. | |
to leave in silence. That is what happens in the Bible. They go to | :17:47. | :17:53. | |
Gethsemane and Jesus prays. We tried to resemble that, because that is | :17:54. | :17:57. | |
what our Lord did on that night. That will happen very soon. | :17:58. | :18:02. | |
Elsewhere, there are a view ideas if you are looking to do something. At | :18:03. | :18:08. | |
Tavistock, the Passion play is taking place on Good Friday morning, | :18:09. | :18:12. | |
a dramatic open-air retelling of the Easter story. There is a new tonic | :18:13. | :18:19. | |
for Easter stress in Torquay. In Somerset, lavender and coal are | :18:20. | :18:32. | |
opening their field. You sure I cannot sing? OK. I am | :18:33. | :19:07. | |

so rude! He knows you so well! | :19:09. | :19:10. | |
Now, aside from it being the most-important festival | :19:11. | :19:12. | |
in the Christian calendar, for most of us Easter also | :19:13. | :19:14. | |
means eggs, of the large chocolate variety. | :19:15. | :19:16. | |
Yes, but on the edge of Exmoor in Dulverton, | :19:17. | :19:18. | |
something else is fast becoming an Easter tradition. | :19:19. | :19:20. | |
Dulverton library, home once a month to the knit and meta group, and they | :19:21. | :19:37. | |
do both well. In the run-up to Easter, docks of their delight. It | :19:38. | :19:43. | |
involves knitting a straightforward little neck piece and head, then | :19:44. | :19:48. | |
there are wings and a beak. And a pocket. And a baby. If you are | :19:49. | :19:56. | |
Rosemary, feet as well. They started knitting Easter ducks four years ago | :19:57. | :19:59. | |
and have a different design each year. This year, they have a cheque | :20:00. | :20:06. | |
in the pocket, we take the chick out of the pocket and we popped a little | :20:07. | :20:12. | |
Easter egg in. Ready to go to its new home. I wondered how much the | :20:13. | :20:19. | |
ducks are. They are sold in the thrift shop to help raise money for | :20:20. | :20:25. | |
the town hall. I will have this one. So far, so straightforward. But | :20:26. | :20:33. | |
then, something crackers happened. They have been travelling the world, | :20:34. | :20:40. | |
amazing places, and they have been sending postcards, which we have | :20:41. | :20:44. | |
here on display. From Cambodia, South America, Venice, and so on. | :20:45. | :20:51. | |
The volunteers who also run this shop have been delighted. Hello, | :20:52. | :20:54. | |
thrift shop... Christmas 2016 was quite a cold | :20:55. | :21:11. | |
one... The Christmas market was just across the river? We have had a | :21:12. | :21:17. | |
wonderful trip to Vietnam. We started in Hanoi... So many | :21:18. | :21:23. | |
motorbikes! Alex Hales continue and have brought us to Malaysia. She | :21:24. | :21:31. | |
thought it was hilarious to bury me in the sand. It is fantastic, such | :21:32. | :21:40. | |
good fun. We have been so interested, following their | :21:41. | :21:43. | |
progress, and they are kind enough to send us postcards, so we enjoy | :21:44. | :21:47. | |
reading about them. We are delighted with their stories. They now have | :21:48. | :21:53. | |
their own Facebook page, where their ventures can be followed by | :21:54. | :21:56. | |
everyone. Easter is their birthday, and they are keeping tight beat | :21:57. | :22:02. | |
about any surprise travel plans, but promised to keep sending postcards | :22:03. | :22:03. | |
back to the place they were born. And tonight we'd like to | :22:04. | :22:09. | |
welcome the knitted chicks Following in the footsteps | :22:10. | :22:11. | |
of our Christmas knitted robins, Brenda and John Joynes sent us | :22:12. | :22:16. | |
these from Somerset. They're being knitted | :22:17. | :22:21. | |
for the League of Friends shop at Yeovil District Hospital, | :22:22. | :22:23. | |
where they've already Like the ducks, they are well | :22:24. | :22:25. | |
travelled, with apparently two There is some good news, because the | :22:26. | :22:45. | |
weather looks like it will be promising for the Easter weekend. If | :22:46. | :22:51. | |
you need rain, there is not a great deal in the forecast at the moment. | :22:52. | :22:55. | |
There might be a few showers, but for the next three or four days | :22:56. | :22:59. | |
there is dry weather to be had. Tomorrow will be rather cloudy. The | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
risk of patchy rain later, but it is light. There will not be a huge | :23:05. | :23:11. | |
amount. It is also quite breezy, the wind picking up from the West, | :23:12. | :23:18. | |
Northwest. The high pressure is close enough to keep a lot of these | :23:19. | :23:22. | |
weather fronts to the North. The cloud associated with them will come | :23:23. | :23:26. | |
across us, but there is not much left by the time it gets to us. | :23:27. | :23:32. | |
Eventually, they will bring some light and intermittent rain. Gone by | :23:33. | :23:38. | |
Saturday. The same area of high pressure just about holes therefore | :23:39. | :23:43. | |
Easter day. Even though the weather fronts try to come in from the | :23:44. | :23:45. | |
north. It will not get to us, really. Even by Monday, even though | :23:46. | :23:51. | |
there is a risk of showers, still a lot of usable weather. We have had | :23:52. | :23:56. | |
some sunshine today, not everywhere. This was earlier today. We got some | :23:57. | :24:04. | |
good shots of people out enjoying some reasonable weather, and trying | :24:05. | :24:09. | |
to gather sheep. Very busy for our sheep farmers. And now into | :24:10. | :24:15. | |
Plymouth. A lot of clout in the sky today, but it has not spoil the day. | :24:16. | :24:20. | |
If we were really fussy about the weather, you will need to wrap up | :24:21. | :24:24. | |
warm, it will not be overly warm. But if the sun comes out just for an | :24:25. | :24:28. | |
hour or so, it will help lift the temperatures. This cloud will begin | :24:29. | :24:35. | |
through the night. Still clear skies at times in places, so in a few | :24:36. | :24:40. | |
shots, sheltered parts of East Devon, Somerset and Dorset, we could | :24:41. | :24:47. | |
see four or 5 degrees. Tomorrow, the cloud will come and go. Eventually | :24:48. | :24:51. | |
it. To produce showers of rain across the northern half of our | :24:52. | :24:53. | |
region. A bit more of a breeze. Bright to | :24:54. | :25:08. | |
start with on the Isles of Scilly, then cloudier. If you are heading to | :25:09. | :25:13. | |
high water. Some usable surf. A bit high water. Some usable surf. A bit | :25:14. | :25:21. | |
choppy on the north Coast, though. Saturday starts a bit cloudy, but it | :25:22. | :25:36. | |
should brighten up. Fine weather on Sunday, a small chance of a shower. | :25:37. | :25:39. | |
We hold onto the bright with for Monday. | :25:40. | :25:41. | |
Well, the choir from Truro Cathedral are now going to play us out | :25:42. | :25:44. | |
with a song specially written for Maundy Thursday, | :25:45. | :25:46. | |
Have a lovely Easter. Good night. | :25:47. | :25:58. |
