:00:56. > :01:08.sending addicts to sail this ship. Hello, welcome to Thursday's

:01:09. > :01:11.programme. First tonight, a controversial free school at the

:01:12. > :01:14.centre of a storm over teaching practices and standards has been

:01:15. > :01:21.branded as dysfunctional and in chaos by government inspectors. Now

:01:22. > :01:24.the Prime Minister has even got involved, saying the Al`Madinah

:01:25. > :01:28.school in Derby should close unless it immediately improves. It's

:01:29. > :01:32.sparked a wider row about schools outside local authority control. But

:01:33. > :01:36.despite it all, some parents appear to remain supportive. The man in

:01:37. > :01:40.charge of Al`Madinah has said he believes it will stay open. Eleanor

:01:41. > :01:49.Garnier is in Derby now. Eleanor, another day another damning report

:01:50. > :01:54.for this school? Yes, that is right. We should remember that the

:01:55. > :01:59.school has only been open since last September. That is when it

:02:00. > :02:04.officially opened. Now labelled as dysfunctional and in chaos by

:02:05. > :02:08.Ofsted, who have given it an inadequate rating in every category.

:02:09. > :02:13.That is the lowest possible inspectors can give. So, what

:02:14. > :02:20.started as a problem at one local school has now sparked a national

:02:21. > :02:25.debate, as my colleague reports. Pupils arrive at the secondary

:02:26. > :02:28.school campus at the Al`Madinah free school in Derby this morning. Even

:02:29. > :02:31.staff learned from the media the school had been described as

:02:32. > :02:35.government inspectors as dysfunctional. Significant and

:02:36. > :02:41.serious problems in the school but we are already beginning to address

:02:42. > :02:47.them... The man in charge for the time being says the issues can be

:02:48. > :02:51.resolved. The children need to be educated somewhere and this is a

:02:52. > :02:54.good place for them to be educated. I think the school will still be

:02:55. > :03:01.here in six months time, 12 months time. I will do everything to try to

:03:02. > :03:04.win sure that. Ofsted found the school inadequate in all areas and

:03:05. > :03:10.said it needed to be placed in special measures. The school's

:03:11. > :03:12.opening body is condemned as ineffective and that they have

:03:13. > :03:18.failed to make sure children stay safe. They also say the school's

:03:19. > :03:23.finances are not properly managed to make sure the money is properly

:03:24. > :03:27.spent. A school Governor gave this reaction to the report. We are aware

:03:28. > :03:30.of the areas we need to improve and we are making every effort to make

:03:31. > :03:35.sure we continue to develop in line with the findings of Ofsted

:03:36. > :03:41.recommendations and external supporting agencies. Many staff and

:03:42. > :03:47.parents remain supportive of the school. There aren't many schools

:03:48. > :03:52.around here and for me it suits my lifestyle because it is a Muslim

:03:53. > :03:56.school. The Ofsted report says you have to give every school a chance

:03:57. > :04:01.and it is open now, so what is the point in closing it down? We're

:04:02. > :04:07.taking the right actions and are not allowed to lead Bob prepared to

:04:08. > :04:13.allow a school to fail its parents and pupils.

:04:14. > :04:21.Eleanor, a huge reaction from all quarters today and even the Prime

:04:22. > :04:26.Minister's got involved now? That is right. David Cameron was speaking on

:04:27. > :04:33.BBC radio Derby earlier today and he stood by and defended this

:04:34. > :04:37.Government's flagship free school policy, but he did send out a clear

:04:38. > :04:44.warning to the school. If they don't take immediate action to improve

:04:45. > :04:49.these things then action will be taken. But let's not use this as a

:04:50. > :04:52.stick with which to beat the whole free school movement because

:04:53. > :04:57.actually there are now hundreds of schools around the country set up as

:04:58. > :05:00.free schools, and on average, they more have outstanding and good

:05:01. > :05:04.ratings than established schools, so they are good things. But when it

:05:05. > :05:09.goes wrong, you have to get in there and sort it out or close it down,

:05:10. > :05:22.just as with a state school. I am joined with `` by the MP for Derby

:05:23. > :05:27.North. How are you going to sort this out? First of all, I am

:05:28. > :05:31.astonished the Prime Minister is continuing to defend an ideological

:05:32. > :05:41.experiment which has failed. It is putting political dogma ahead of the

:05:42. > :05:44.learning of the children. You are blaming the Government and David

:05:45. > :05:48.Cameron and the Education Secretary, but what about the governors of this

:05:49. > :05:52.school? Don't they have a significant amount of

:05:53. > :05:56.responsibility? Should not they be held to account? The only one who

:05:57. > :06:01.should be held to account is the Secretary of State for education,

:06:02. > :06:08.and that is Michael Gove. He has made these free schools possible and

:06:09. > :06:13.stood by... So you stand by all of these? No, but he must take

:06:14. > :06:17.responsibility for creating a system which has clearly failed the

:06:18. > :06:23.children in Derby. And my fear is this will be repeated up and down

:06:24. > :06:27.the country. Do you think it is right to have girls sitting on one

:06:28. > :06:33.side of the classroom and boys on another? Of course not. I have

:06:34. > :06:37.written to the Secretary of State asking him to, at the very minimum,

:06:38. > :06:41.ensure that all schools in every part of the country are subject to

:06:42. > :06:46.scrutiny by the local education authority. Thank you. That is Chris

:06:47. > :06:50.William, the Labour MP for Derby North. This school could now be in

:06:51. > :06:54.special measures for up to two years and will have regular inspections,

:06:55. > :06:57.and some of those could be without warning. The interim head teacher

:06:58. > :07:03.says he believes the school does have a future and that it has

:07:04. > :07:11.already begun tackling some of those major areas of concern. Thank you.

:07:12. > :07:14.Scientists in Leicester have discovered bacteria`eating viruses

:07:15. > :07:17.that can be used to fight superbugs. Phage therapy, as it's called, could

:07:18. > :07:20.be the breakthrough that helps prevent patients dying and hospitals

:07:21. > :07:25.being closed due to infectious outbreaks. In a moment we'll find

:07:26. > :07:28.out more about the scale of hospital infections in the East Midlands, but

:07:29. > :07:33.first, Simon Ward has been speaking to the team behind the project.

:07:34. > :07:36.Hospitals work hard to prevent the spread of highly infectious

:07:37. > :07:43.superbugs that are becoming more resistant to antibiotics. Bugs like

:07:44. > :07:47.this. They can be killers. Now scientists believe they may have the

:07:48. > :07:52.answer. Phage there appears being developed here at the University of

:07:53. > :07:57.Leicester. We have been isolating viruses that kill bacteria and the

:07:58. > :08:03.idea is to use them as an alternative to antibiotics to treat

:08:04. > :08:07.this organism in patients. The University has signed a deal with

:08:08. > :08:11.American backing and it could be a major victory against infections in

:08:12. > :08:14.hospitals. Many thousands of deaths could be prevented around the world

:08:15. > :08:19.in future if it works and the enormous cost of closing wards and

:08:20. > :08:21.hospitals could be avoided. The team is already working out how people

:08:22. > :08:28.could take the virus which could save them. We are thinking it could

:08:29. > :08:33.be a capsule that passes through the stomach and then moves into the

:08:34. > :08:37.colon when the virus is replicating the bacteria there. Possibly it

:08:38. > :08:42.could be a drink as well. More studies will now be conducted in

:08:43. > :08:44.collaboration with the University of Glasgow to develop a commercially

:08:45. > :08:48.available treatment available within five to ten years time.

:08:49. > :08:51.Our health correspondent, Rob Sissons, is here. Interesting

:08:52. > :08:58.developments in Leicester, so where does research go from here? Simon

:08:59. > :09:03.mentioned there was still a way to go. Clinical trials will be next.

:09:04. > :09:05.There is huge interest in this. And when it comes to the superbug

:09:06. > :09:09.clostridium difficile, how big a problem is it these days in our

:09:10. > :09:14.hospitals? Not as bad as it once was. Let's take a look at the

:09:15. > :09:18.figures for the East Midlands. These are from Public Health England. They

:09:19. > :09:26.show what a difference three years makes.

:09:27. > :09:33.It has now nearly halved and I suppose the big question is why? I

:09:34. > :09:37.have been to Kingsmill hospital. They have got an advantage.

:09:38. > :09:43.Purpose`built, brand`new hospital with lots of single rooms, which

:09:44. > :09:47.makes it easier to isolate patients and stop the spread of infection,

:09:48. > :09:57.and I spoke to one of their micro boiler just. `` microbiologists.

:09:58. > :10:05.This hospital has had a huge impact on the infection rate. And the

:10:06. > :10:10.biggest impact is hand hygiene and isolation of patients and also

:10:11. > :10:13.antibiotic prescribing. But one of the problems is, there are so many

:10:14. > :10:17.initiatives to bring down the figures that it is hard to know

:10:18. > :10:20.precisely what has worked and what hasn't, but collectively, they

:10:21. > :10:23.appear to have worked. Still to come, we join the

:10:24. > :10:31.recovering addicts on a special voyage of self`discovery of open sea

:10:32. > :10:35.and blue skies. It has been lovely to see the sunshine again today, and

:10:36. > :10:38.if you have enjoyed the warmer temperatures, they will be staying

:10:39. > :10:45.for the weekend, but it won't all be plain sailing.

:10:46. > :10:50.A woman is in hospital after being attacked in Loughborough. It

:10:51. > :10:53.happened at around 9:30am this morning on a path that runs

:10:54. > :10:57.alongside a brook between Braddon Road and the A6. Officers were

:10:58. > :11:00.called to the scene following reports of an assault, where they

:11:01. > :11:06.found a 46`year`old woman with stomach and face injuries. Her

:11:07. > :11:10.condition tonight isn't yet known. Police have named a man found dead

:11:11. > :11:14.in a Nottinghamshire flat at the weekend. The body of Simon Hay, who

:11:15. > :11:17.was 47, was discovered in the property on Villa Street in Beeston

:11:18. > :11:22.on Sunday. Officers say he was beaten to death. Two men aged 23 and

:11:23. > :11:28.32 are still being questioned on suspicion of murder.

:11:29. > :11:32.Police say studies of human remains found in the garden of a Mansfield

:11:33. > :11:35.home suggest they are those of a missing elderly couple. Detectives,

:11:36. > :11:39.who've begun a murder enquiry, say tests show the bones are from an

:11:40. > :11:43.older man and a slightly younger woman. Previous owners of the house

:11:44. > :11:49.William Wycherly would now be 100 and his wife Patricia, 79. Tests

:11:50. > :11:53.show that some of the remains point to them being Mrs Wycherly. Officers

:11:54. > :11:58.want to hear from anyone who knew her by her maiden name, Moore.

:11:59. > :12:02.The era of high`rise living for some tenants in one of our cities is

:12:03. > :12:05.coming to an end. Within months, eight of Nottingham's eye`catching

:12:06. > :12:09.blocks of flats will be demolished to make way for the first new

:12:10. > :12:12.council houses since the 1960s. The council's Labour leadership is

:12:13. > :12:22.pressing the Government to allow it to build more homes for rent. Here's

:12:23. > :12:26.our political editor, John Hess. 40 years ago, high`rise living was

:12:27. > :12:32.thought to be a solution to a city's housing crisis, but not any

:12:33. > :12:35.more. From the 13th floor, a birds eye view. Demolition work started

:12:36. > :12:41.here in Nottingham. Soon, all five blocks will be gone and Eileen and

:12:42. > :12:49.Allen, tenants here for 37 years, will miss them. It is going to be a

:12:50. > :12:53.bit of a wrench, isn't it? Yes, it will be an upheaval. I'll have to

:12:54. > :12:59.get rid of a lot of stuff. Vary warm. Apparently they are all

:13:00. > :13:04.crumbling, though, so it is just one of those things. Most of the rubble

:13:05. > :13:14.will end up under pinning another project, dualling the A453 to

:13:15. > :13:22.another local road. But was this project necessary? The views of

:13:23. > :13:26.tenants meant it was a much more sensible option to redevelop

:13:27. > :13:32.completely. This is one of 13 sites in Nottingham being cleared to

:13:33. > :13:38.develop new homes. It is the biggest council housing project in many,

:13:39. > :13:42.many years. The latest figures for England reveal that one in five

:13:43. > :13:47.families are now renting from a private landlord. That is 1.2

:13:48. > :13:51.million households. That has doubled since 2001. The city wants to build

:13:52. > :13:56.more council houses to meet that demand. It is pressing for extra

:13:57. > :14:01.government cash help, but is the coalition receptive? We will

:14:02. > :14:05.certainly see more housing coming up and the Government is keen to

:14:06. > :14:12.incentivise more house`building and keep the cash in council is that it

:14:13. > :14:16.generates. High`rise block is demolished and, with it, a

:14:17. > :14:19.20th`century dream that these would solve the housing crisis.

:14:20. > :14:23.An inquest has recorded a verdict of accidental death on a woman who died

:14:24. > :14:25.after being crushed by her horse. 22`year`old Aimee Edwards, from

:14:26. > :14:29.Draycott in Derbyshire, was an experienced rider. She was on a

:14:30. > :14:33.cross`country course in Leicestershire with friends at the

:14:34. > :14:37.time of the accident in September last year. The inquest heard her

:14:38. > :14:42.horse slipped and fell on her chest. She died a month later in hospital.

:14:43. > :14:46.More people in the East Midlands say they've been targeted by thieves. In

:14:47. > :14:50.the latest figures, for last year, the region's police forces recorded

:14:51. > :14:55.a 10% increase in personal thefts. Many victims had smartphones stolen.

:14:56. > :14:59.The police also recorded a 9% rise in sexual offences. But the region's

:15:00. > :15:13.overall crime figure continued to fall, down by 10% last year.

:15:14. > :15:20.Governors of Leicester junior school have won the first step in their

:15:21. > :15:23.battle against City Council. The school was stripped of its powers

:15:24. > :15:27.and the headteacher was suspended after strikes over plans to

:15:28. > :15:32.restructure. Now the High Court has approved a judicial review in a move

:15:33. > :15:35.saying this was unlawful. Next tonight, helping addicts tackle

:15:36. > :15:39.their demons and stay off drink and drugs can be a challenge but is one

:15:40. > :15:43.which a Leicestershire rehab centre thinks it may have cracked. They've

:15:44. > :15:47.adopted an unusual approach. It involves sending a group out to sea

:15:48. > :15:50.to crew a sailing ship. And for some, it's been a life`changing

:15:51. > :15:53.experience. Our social affairs correspondent, Jeremy Ball, joined

:15:54. > :16:04.them on board for this special report.

:16:05. > :16:14.The beginning of a voyage of self`discovery on the Morning Star

:16:15. > :16:22.of Revelation. This isn't just about sailing a ship, it is about tackling

:16:23. > :16:29.the debt is of addiction. Eye was on cocaine every day, probably getting

:16:30. > :16:34.two or three hours of sleep before work. `` I was. I'd then lost my job

:16:35. > :16:38.and got put in prison. Drugs will readily available in prison and from

:16:39. > :16:47.that I'd just lost everything. They had nothing. Did you ever expect to

:16:48. > :16:50.pick up again? No. Which it is learning to crew this ship as part

:16:51. > :16:56.of a team from Loughborough, where all the sailors are on a tough detox

:16:57. > :17:01.programme at a Christian rehab centre called the Carpenters Arms.

:17:02. > :17:07.Ryan is desperate to turn away from a life which began when he joined a

:17:08. > :17:20.children's home. He went on a downward spiral after taking drugs

:17:21. > :17:21.which ended up behind bars. It is just pure darkness when you are

:17:22. > :17:39.sailing. I was in a mess. But how does a week learning to sail

:17:40. > :17:43.steer lives back on course? It is all about proving themselves.

:17:44. > :17:51.Building confidence and working as a team. Below deck, it is Daniel's

:17:52. > :17:55.turned to do the cooking. He is a reformed heroin addict from Hinckley

:17:56. > :18:03.and he has done so well that the organisation has employed him

:18:04. > :18:09.permanently as a chef on board. We have two chefs alternating. Four

:18:10. > :18:13.hours on, four hours off. So you are up on deck, the rain hitting you,

:18:14. > :18:19.the wind hitting you, three and a half hours sleep. People recovering

:18:20. > :18:26.from addiction, getting that mentality, it is so important. 12

:18:27. > :18:31.hours later, they are back for breakfast and ready for a pep talk

:18:32. > :18:36.from the captain. Mike Ling is a volunteer and he is from Nuneaton in

:18:37. > :18:40.Derbyshire. I believe it can make all the difference in the world and

:18:41. > :18:45.they are on a programme where they are working off their addictions and

:18:46. > :18:49.back into normal life. And it gives them confidence in themselves,

:18:50. > :18:54.confidence in being able to relate to other people. They almost a month

:18:55. > :19:01.course won't be easy, but by the end of this week, they will have the

:19:02. > :19:12.skills to set their lives on an even keel, and Richard wants to succeed.

:19:13. > :19:18.`` after almost a month's course. Really excited about the future now

:19:19. > :19:24.and really enjoying this boat trip, so it is cracking. Out on the ocean,

:19:25. > :19:33.it is brilliant. It looks amazing. Really positive comments from the

:19:34. > :19:36.people involved. You're watching East Midlands Today

:19:37. > :19:40.with Sarah and Maurice tonight. The sport is coming up shortly.

:19:41. > :19:43.And any excuse to shop. I'll be nosing around the historic arcade

:19:44. > :19:54.which has re`opened after years of standing empty. As promised, Colin

:19:55. > :19:57.is here and ready to go! Some football news to start, and

:19:58. > :20:01.Leicester City manager Nigel Pearson says he's expected speculation about

:20:02. > :20:04.moves in and out of the club but nothing's arranged yet. Recently,

:20:05. > :20:07.Sean St Ledger's been suggested as lining up a loan out, while

:20:08. > :20:10.Manchester City youngster Kieran Kennedy is being watched by

:20:11. > :20:14.Leicester. Already on loan is Martyn Waghorn and current club Millwall

:20:15. > :20:21.are keen to keep him. But Pearson says he's not even spoken to Waghorn

:20:22. > :20:24.about it. It will be one of the things that will be resolved over

:20:25. > :20:29.the next two or three months but there's no hurry for us to do

:20:30. > :20:33.anything yet. The plan was with him to go away and get some games and

:20:34. > :20:36.then we will assess it as we go along, so enough said on that one, I

:20:37. > :20:39.think! Derby striker Chris Martin has

:20:40. > :20:43.praised new manager Steve McClaren for how little he's done. Martin

:20:44. > :20:47.says there's been plenty of work on the training ground and a new shape

:20:48. > :20:52.for the team but that McClaren has been careful not to undo good work

:20:53. > :20:56.done by former boss Nigel Clough. I think he was a bit wary of the fact

:20:57. > :21:00.that he had quite a successful club and quite a good squad he inherited

:21:01. > :21:05.and he didn't want to change too much. I'd think the fact that he has

:21:06. > :21:08.thought about that and taken us into consideration is also a positive

:21:09. > :21:11.thing for the players. Leicester Tigers chief executive

:21:12. > :21:16.Simon Cohen has given his support for the idea of a new arena next to

:21:17. > :21:19.the club's Welford Road ground. The old Granby Halls site is one of

:21:20. > :21:22.several possible homes for the Leicester Riders basketball team.

:21:23. > :21:24.Cohen says the spot would have significant merit for the Tigers.

:21:25. > :21:26.Onto ice hockey, and 0 significant merit for the Tigers.

:21:27. > :21:29.Onto ice hockey, and a big, big weekend for Nottingham Panthers

:21:30. > :21:32.fans. The Panthers host a round of Europe's top competition, the

:21:33. > :21:35.Continental Cup, right here in Nottingham. So can the Panthers add

:21:36. > :21:42.a European Crown to last year's record breaking season? Jessica

:21:43. > :21:47.Creighton reports. Last year, the Nottingham Panthers

:21:48. > :21:52.just couldn't stop winning. The league... The Challenge Cup and the

:21:53. > :21:55.play`offs. This season, they want to raise the bar again and at the

:21:56. > :22:03.Continental cup to their trophy cabinet. I don't see why we can't

:22:04. > :22:08.continue to progress to the later stages so we will be looking to do

:22:09. > :22:12.that this weekend and move onto the next phase. It will be the biggest

:22:13. > :22:17.ice hockey event Britain has ever hosted and a chance for the sport to

:22:18. > :22:20.increase its fan base. This is a huge tournament for us and a

:22:21. > :22:24.prestigious event. It is good for the club and the arena to be hosting

:22:25. > :22:29.it and fabulous for the city, but it is important for the sport in the UK

:22:30. > :22:36.as well. Even after such a prolific season last year, the Nottingham

:22:37. > :22:39.Panthers are still fine tuning. They know the teams involved will have a

:22:40. > :22:44.different playing style to what they are used to, though. It is going to

:22:45. > :22:49.be down to skills but we have a lot of skilled guys out there. You can

:22:50. > :22:53.see them in the background. If you have skilled guys, they can adapt to

:22:54. > :22:57.the European style. Even in our league, our sport, you can get away

:22:58. > :23:01.with a bit more and be a bit more physical. The boys will have to be a

:23:02. > :23:11.bit less physical than usual and take it out on the pub rather than

:23:12. > :23:15.the opposition! They move on to the Latvians after the Dutch. It might

:23:16. > :23:19.be their first outing in Europe since 2006 to win here would put

:23:20. > :23:28.them through to the next round and show they can compete with the

:23:29. > :23:31.continent 's best. Semifinals has been the limit for

:23:32. > :23:36.British ice hockey, so any further would be cracking. Let's hope they

:23:37. > :23:39.can achieve more this year! After years of standing empty and

:23:40. > :23:43.neglected, a historic shopping arcade in Leicester has re`opened.

:23:44. > :23:47.It's being hailed as an important part of the regeneration of the city

:23:48. > :23:50.centre. And it was a real ordeal but I've been out talking to the

:23:51. > :23:58.shopkeepers and sampling some of their wares.

:23:59. > :24:02.Once a landmark feature in Leicester, this historic Victorian

:24:03. > :24:08.building has stood empty for over a decade. But today, after a ?3

:24:09. > :24:14.million refurbishment, the Silver arcade has reopened. How important

:24:15. > :24:17.is it for this area of the city that this arcade is up and running again

:24:18. > :24:24.as a shopping centre? We very much see it as being the Gateway to the

:24:25. > :24:28.lanes, which is a unique part of Leicester which most cities don't

:24:29. > :24:32.have. If people actually got off their backsides and walked around

:24:33. > :24:38.the city, they would see so much more with regards to the variety of

:24:39. > :24:44.the eclectic shops Leicester has to offer. Up to 75 of the units have

:24:45. > :24:48.been let out to a range of different businesses. Including a

:24:49. > :24:55.hairdressers... A ladies boutique... A lingerie shop, and my personal

:24:56. > :25:02.favourite, a yummy chocolate shop. And the entire third`floor will be

:25:03. > :25:07.taken up by an Italian restaurant. The local community, assess

:25:08. > :25:11.shopkeepers and the local area, it is great to have stores providing

:25:12. > :25:16.something different on the high street. There are a lot of original

:25:17. > :25:21.features here. You have really merged the old with the new, haven't

:25:22. > :25:25.you? That was very much the intention. The building is very old

:25:26. > :25:28.but the type of retailers we have attracted to date and those we are

:25:29. > :25:33.still speaking to going forwards, I think it will bring a modern twist

:25:34. > :25:38.to a historic building. That is great but Mike the cameraman has had

:25:39. > :25:45.several attempts trying to either chocolate. How many did you have?

:25:46. > :25:47.Not that many but the chocolate was nice! Perfect for shopping this

:25:48. > :25:58.weekend, isn't it? Yes, because it will be blustery and

:25:59. > :26:01.showery this weekend. But warned today. The downside tonight with the

:26:02. > :26:07.clear skies and the moisture means we will start to see things turning

:26:08. > :26:10.very misty, with fairly dense fog patches into the early part of

:26:11. > :26:17.tomorrow morning. We still have clearer slots at the moment. Any

:26:18. > :26:21.showers have died away so we will start to see the mist and fog

:26:22. > :26:25.developing. More so across the eastern side of the region with more

:26:26. > :26:30.cloud around across Derbyshire, but into the early hours, we could still

:26:31. > :26:33.see the odd dense fog patch developing and a night`time

:26:34. > :26:38.temperatures of nine degrees, so a mainly mild night due to the wind

:26:39. > :26:42.direction coming from the South. Tomorrow morning, a very foggy

:26:43. > :26:49.start, but the wind will pick up, which will make the fog lift. At the

:26:50. > :26:54.moment, the heavy rain is pushing further West, so what we are seeing

:26:55. > :26:58.is showery outbreaks of rain into the afternoon, so a damp day with

:26:59. > :27:01.slightly drier conditions across Leicestershire and Rutland and

:27:02. > :27:07.across Lincolnshire as well, with temperatures very similar to today.

:27:08. > :27:12.There is rain around over the weekend. This is what is happening

:27:13. > :27:17.on Saturday. These are lines of showers emerging for a time. Quite a

:27:18. > :27:22.blustery day but temperatures not too disappointing and any brighter

:27:23. > :27:28.moments could bring 16 degrees. The showers could move quite quickly due

:27:29. > :27:31.to the winds. The low pressure is certainly controlling the weather

:27:32. > :27:35.this weekend but the wind becomes lighter on Sunday but the downside

:27:36. > :27:41.to that is that showers are slow`moving.

:27:42. > :27:43.Still quite warm for the time of year. We will be back later.

:27:44. > :27:46.Goodbye.
