The sun shall never set on so glorious a human | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
This is East Midlands Today, with Dominic Heale. And me, Anne Davies. | :00:00. | :00:12. | |
Tonight: A global figure who touched our lives. | :00:13. | :00:19. | |
The day after his death, we reflect on this region's surprising | :00:20. | :00:23. | |
connections with Nelson Mandela. We will do better, so says the new | :00:24. | :00:28. | |
boss of our under fire ambulance service. | :00:29. | :00:31. | |
Staff are said to me, we don't want to be in this position but in a | :00:32. | :00:35. | |
stronger place, back to being an organisation we can be proud of. The | :00:36. | :00:41. | |
man who paid out hundreds for a photo of an Xbox on eBay. | :00:42. | :00:49. | |
I was expecting it to be more bulky, it was a bit slim. I was conned out | :00:50. | :00:53. | |
of my money. Look who is on the programme | :00:54. | :01:03. | |
tonight. Sorry, yes! He's good, isn't he! | :01:04. | :01:15. | |
. Good evening. Welcome to Friday's programme. | :01:16. | :01:20. | |
The influence of Nelson Mandela as a world figure reaches far and wide. | :01:21. | :01:27. | |
Today, the day after his death, it turns out that people in this region | :01:28. | :01:31. | |
have the most 0 turns out that people in this region | :01:32. | :01:33. | |
have the most surprising connections with a man who spent his life | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
fighting racism. Countless others who never met him have been deeply | :01:37. | :01:39. | |
marked by Mandela's life, even though it was lived thousands of | :01:40. | :01:41. | |
miles away. Eleanor Garnier reports. | :01:42. | :01:48. | |
Welcome to Leicester's Nelson Mandela Park. A city that celebrates | :01:49. | :01:54. | |
diversity and one where the life and work of Mr Mandela, a freedom | :01:55. | :01:59. | |
fighter, prisoner, turned president, is extremely significant. | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
I have been talking to one student here from South Africa. She told me | :02:04. | :02:08. | |
how important he is to her and her country. | :02:09. | :02:14. | |
He opened so many doors for even our parents who were unable to work the | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
jobs they wanted to work during apartheid. He has given us hope. He | :02:19. | :02:24. | |
has given us a future. We look forward to doing great things as | :02:25. | :02:27. | |
well. It was that gift of hope that | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
inspired Shirley, a political exile who left South Africa in 1968, and | :02:32. | :02:36. | |
now lives in Derby. I feel ashamed of myself because I | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
had a lot of anger and bitterness because I had to give up my country. | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
But, the more I got to know about Mandela, the more I thought about | :02:48. | :02:53. | |
it, I was ashamed of myself. I was with the American civil rights | :02:54. | :02:56. | |
activist Jesse Jackson yesterday as he visited Leicester. We spoke about | :02:57. | :03:02. | |
Mr Mandela in the hours before he died. The genius of Mandela, 27 | :03:03. | :03:08. | |
years in jail, he chose reconciliation over retribution. | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
Reconciliation over retribution, followed by hope, not fear. In | :03:13. | :03:21. | |
1995, but then not in South MP Alan Simpson met Mr Mandela in South | :03:22. | :03:27. | |
Africa. He said, I'm terribly sorry for being delayed. I've been saying | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
goodbye to the Pope. You felt, fair enough. He made us feel the | :03:32. | :03:40. | |
shortcomings were from him. But actually his was the gift of just | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
being in the room. Books of condolence have been opened in | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
Leicester, Nottingham and Derby. Flags across the region are flying | :03:51. | :03:54. | |
at half`mast. People in the East Midlands are joining the rest of the | :03:55. | :03:59. | |
world in marking the death of men `` Nelson Mandela. | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
Next tonight: A service in turmoil? Or a victim of unfair public and | :04:04. | :04:11. | |
media criticism? East Midlands Ambulance Service is rarely out of | :04:12. | :04:15. | |
the headlines. Its ability to respond to cases in a timely way has | :04:16. | :04:19. | |
been under particular scrutiny. Tonight, we're asking the woman in | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
charge just what's going on with our ambulance service. Is it in crisis? | :04:24. | :04:29. | |
But first, here's our health correspondent Rob Sissons, with some | :04:30. | :04:36. | |
of the hard facts about EMAS. East Midlands ambulances are | :04:37. | :04:39. | |
supposed to get to 95% of all life`threatening emergencies within | :04:40. | :04:42. | |
19 minutes. But EMAS missed this target this year by more than 3%. | :04:43. | :04:45. | |
Instead of 95% of cases, EMAS managed only 91.8%. It led to the | :04:46. | :04:51. | |
service's third fine in as many years for missing response targets. | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
On top of that, a separate report by the Care Quality Commission found | :04:56. | :04:58. | |
EMAS had failed to meet three CQC standards, on its care of people who | :04:59. | :05:01. | |
use the service, its staffing, and its training and support. At the | :05:02. | :05:07. | |
time, the service insisted it was on top of the issues, and was | :05:08. | :05:10. | |
improving. But only last month, senior management were summoned to a | :05:11. | :05:13. | |
meeting with NHS England about, again, poor response times. And also | :05:14. | :05:23. | |
this time, patient safety. There'd even been a day when EMAS was unable | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
to handle even the most urgent 999 calls. Let alone those that didn't | :05:28. | :05:32. | |
threaten life. Bradley Watson was playing Sunday | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
football last month in Nottingham when a tackle left him facedown on | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
the ground with a broken leg. What he did not realise what he would be | :05:40. | :05:42. | |
left there for hours before ambulance crew Majak Daw arrived. It | :05:43. | :05:50. | |
was agony, it felt like forever. The pitch was soaking wet, I was worried | :05:51. | :05:55. | |
about myself getting hypothermia. When it came to two hours, I was | :05:56. | :06:03. | |
getting agitated. Two hours and 49 minutes, though, that is not | :06:04. | :06:07. | |
acceptable. The operation the surgeon carried out was three hours. | :06:08. | :06:14. | |
To repair his leg. I understand there are more | :06:15. | :06:18. | |
life`threatening situations. But I don't want anybody to go through | :06:19. | :06:21. | |
pain that that that that amount of time. It was horrendous. | :06:22. | :06:24. | |
Today, I met with Sue Noyes who's in charge of EMAS. 0 | :06:25. | :06:26. | |
Today, I met with Sue Noyes who's in charge of EMAS. I asked her what she | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
made of Bradley's case? I can recognise from a patient point | :06:33. | :06:37. | |
of view that isn't an acceptable level of service. I offer my | :06:38. | :06:40. | |
apologies. We keep hearing about these cases. | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
One thing within our quality improvement programme is coming yes, | :06:45. | :06:50. | |
it's about response times, and clinical safety. On a personal | :06:51. | :06:56. | |
basis, I hear and I respond to every complaint we receive. We hear | :06:57. | :07:00. | |
patients and their stories, but we are taking direct action. From next | :07:01. | :07:05. | |
week, we will have a GP within our control centre, and a consultant | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
paramedic in the control centre, to make sure we are providing the right | :07:10. | :07:15. | |
resource to the right incident. And to watch how, when people are not | :07:16. | :07:20. | |
receiving an emergency ambulance, if their situation is deteriorating | :07:21. | :07:24. | |
over a length of time, we can pick that up and respond sooner. How does | :07:25. | :07:31. | |
it feel to be in charge of one of the worst performing trusts in the | :07:32. | :07:33. | |
country? I am enjoying the challenge but I recognise fully that EMAS | :07:34. | :07:42. | |
macro needs rejuvenating. `` EMAS need rejuvenating. People in the | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
East Midlands pay their taxes. When will they get the quality service | :07:47. | :07:50. | |
they want? We are working on a quality improvement programme on | :07:51. | :07:56. | |
better patient care, and we are planning to deliver on our response | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
targets by the end of next quarter, March. And in the meantime to | :08:01. | :08:06. | |
improve. That is our focus. Are you still committed to the controversial | :08:07. | :08:12. | |
sell`off of ambulance stations? That was part of a previous strategy. We | :08:13. | :08:18. | |
have put a short pause on that because we need to concentrate on | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
improving response times. We have winter coming up as well. | :08:23. | :08:27. | |
We'll be updating you on the performance of the Ambulance Service | :08:28. | :08:31. | |
over the coming months. A man who groomed teenage girls for | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
sex over the internet has been jailed for ten years, and condemned | :08:36. | :08:39. | |
as a predator. Ian Sluggett, from Whetstone in Leicestershire, | :08:40. | :08:44. | |
admitted 23 charges. Sluggett befriended the girls on social media | :08:45. | :08:47. | |
sites. He also forced some, as young as 13, to send him explicit photos | :08:48. | :08:51. | |
by threatening them. Quentin Rayner reports. | :08:52. | :08:59. | |
Using several pseudonyms, 40`year`old Ian Sluggett posed as a | :09:00. | :09:06. | |
16`year`old, sending friend requests and making contact with 3000 teenage | :09:07. | :09:12. | |
girls on Facebook. He convinced to 15`year`olds to meet up and have sex | :09:13. | :09:16. | |
with him several times in his van. He demanded explicit photos from | :09:17. | :09:22. | |
313`year`olds by using threats. Sluggett made 5000 calls to | :09:23. | :09:27. | |
113`year`old on his phone. He threatened another that if she went | :09:28. | :09:30. | |
to the police, her life would be over and he would send her naked | :09:31. | :09:36. | |
photos to her friends. He was clearly an organised person, he made | :09:37. | :09:40. | |
concerted efforts to contact young girls using false information, in a | :09:41. | :09:46. | |
very organised manner. That does concern us. The judge told the | :09:47. | :09:51. | |
father of three who is separated from his wife that he is a predator | :09:52. | :09:56. | |
who had cynically deceived and exploited young girls with no | :09:57. | :10:00. | |
concern for the damage he caused. The judge said the case highlighted | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
dangers posed by the misuse of the Internet, and the utter folly of | :10:05. | :10:09. | |
some young people and their attitude towards it. My concern is that there | :10:10. | :10:15. | |
are several thousand contacts on his phone, Facebook account and Skype | :10:16. | :10:19. | |
account. My concern is there are potentially other victims who we | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
would like to speak to. The Internet grooming only came to light because | :10:25. | :10:27. | |
one victim was overheard by a teacher talking about being | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
blackmailed. Sluggett was sentenced to ten years and is said to have | :10:32. | :10:32. | |
been disowned by his family. Still to come: In sport, Colin | :10:33. | :10:40. | |
reflects on the rise and rise of Derby County. | :10:41. | :10:48. | |
We are at Derby County surrounded by these fans enjoying the fact that | :10:49. | :10:51. | |
club is on a roll. And, Hi`de`Hoff! Anne schmoozes the | :10:52. | :10:59. | |
stars of Peter Pan, a panto that's sure to get you hooked. | :11:00. | :11:04. | |
People in Lincolnshire, who were evacuated from their homes last | :11:05. | :11:07. | |
night due to 0 evacuated from their homes last | :11:08. | :11:09. | |
night due to flooding, are facing a second night in temporary | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
accommodation. Flood waters swept through the town of Boston, after | :11:14. | :11:17. | |
yesterday's storm. More than 200 people had to spend the night at an | :11:18. | :11:21. | |
army barracks and a holiday camp just outside Grantham. The county | :11:22. | :11:24. | |
council says a number of them are facing a second night there, as | :11:25. | :11:26. | |
they're still unable to return home. A predatory rapist who attacked | :11:27. | :11:32. | |
seven women, six of them in one night, has been jailed for life. | :11:33. | :11:36. | |
Harbinder Khatkar, from Derby, was described by the judge as a highly | :11:37. | :11:40. | |
dangerous man who, if at liberty, would undoubtedly attack women | :11:41. | :11:44. | |
again. Khatkar, who terrorised six victims in the Normanton area of | :11:45. | :11:47. | |
Derby this year, had also subjected a seventh woman to a similar ordeal | :11:48. | :11:51. | |
two years before. The police say all the victims have been severely | :11:52. | :11:53. | |
traumatised. In court, we heard a statement from | :11:54. | :12:10. | |
one victim. She said how prior to the effect she had been a confident | :12:11. | :12:14. | |
person bringing up her children in a stable home in Derby. Her life has | :12:15. | :12:19. | |
been shattered, she has lost all her confidence. She fears going out | :12:20. | :12:23. | |
alone, she fears a knock at the door, always looking behind her. | :12:24. | :12:28. | |
Hopefully this sentence will be the beginning of her rebuilding her | :12:29. | :12:29. | |
life. The funerals have taken place of a | :12:30. | :12:34. | |
mother and her two children who were killed in a house fire in north | :12:35. | :12:38. | |
Derbyshire. Josie Leyton and her sons Tyler and Jordan died when the | :12:39. | :12:41. | |
property caught fire in the village of North Wingfield last month. | :12:42. | :12:44. | |
Josie's friend Claire James also died. Her funeral was held on | :12:45. | :12:46. | |
Wednesday. A multi`vehicle pile`up caused big | :12:47. | :12:51. | |
delays on the M1 this afternoon. One person was taken to hospital | :12:52. | :12:53. | |
following an accident involving as many as 13 vehicles. Elsewhere this | :12:54. | :12:56. | |
morning, two lorries were involved in a crash on the A38 outside Derby. | :12:57. | :13:01. | |
One of them fell on a car. It took four hours to clear the road. No one | :13:02. | :13:03. | |
there was hurt. Next, a warning to consumers about | :13:04. | :13:12. | |
ordering goods over the internet, from a man who thought he'd bought | :13:13. | :13:16. | |
an Xbox, but only got a photo of one instead. Peter Clatworthy from | :13:17. | :13:19. | |
Nottingham paid more than ?450 for what he believed was a gaming | :13:20. | :13:22. | |
console, even though the advert on eBay actually didn't promise that. | :13:23. | :13:25. | |
Luckily for Peter, he's now got a refund. Mike O'Sullivan reports. | :13:26. | :13:38. | |
He has learned a harsh lesson and now he wants others to beware. Peter | :13:39. | :13:45. | |
Clatworthy from Nottingham is warning people to check the fine | :13:46. | :13:51. | |
print when they buy online. After ordering an Xbox, paying more than | :13:52. | :13:58. | |
?450, this is what he got back. A picture of an Xbox. That is actually | :13:59. | :14:05. | |
what had been advertised online. I was flabbergasted at first. I was | :14:06. | :14:10. | |
expecting the Xbox to be a bit more bulky than it was. It was very slim. | :14:11. | :14:15. | |
I thought, I have been conned out of money. I had to laugh at first. You | :14:16. | :14:21. | |
can't be angry, it's your own fault. What did you say to the person who | :14:22. | :14:27. | |
sold it to you? At first, I said, very funny. He got back to me and | :14:28. | :14:32. | |
said you got what you bought. The auction site was eBay. | :14:33. | :14:45. | |
Very misleading. It says photo but in the description it says 500 bed | :14:46. | :14:55. | |
debates, hard drive, Bluetooth, Wi`Fi. You thought you were buying | :14:56. | :15:03. | |
an Xbox. I really did. In the run`up to Christmas, Peter hopes consumers | :15:04. | :15:08. | |
will check and check again before the order. | :15:09. | :15:13. | |
That would have been a bit of a disappointment. Just a little bit. A | :15:14. | :15:18. | |
little envelope. Time for sport. And some important | :15:19. | :15:25. | |
games this weekend. Colin's been out to Derby County where things are | :15:26. | :15:29. | |
going well for the new man in charge. | :15:30. | :15:32. | |
The Rams, not short of attention. Head coach Steve McClaren has | :15:33. | :15:35. | |
catapulted the Rams up the table! Since he took charge nine games ago, | :15:36. | :15:39. | |
the Rams have won six, drawn two, and only lost one. They are the | :15:40. | :15:42. | |
in`form team, fourth in the Championship, the ones to watch. So | :15:43. | :15:45. | |
this week, Angela Rafferty has been charting the rise o f the Rams. | :15:46. | :15:50. | |
From 14th to fourth in just nine league games, McClaren's men are | :15:51. | :15:54. | |
enjoying a meteoric rise of the Championship table. | :15:55. | :16:26. | |
The whole town is buzzing again. Yes. I wouldn't rule out automatic | :16:27. | :16:35. | |
promotion. When anybody is doing well, no | :16:36. | :16:39. | |
matter who it is, it is a good time. Penmanship, definitely. I | :16:40. | :16:44. | |
would say so, this season or next. Derby County is on the up. We have | :16:45. | :16:49. | |
to make sure we maintain it. That is our job, the players's job, and | :16:50. | :16:54. | |
performance. And about points and not letting people get carried away. | :16:55. | :16:59. | |
We are not even dreaming of promotion, play`offs. In March, | :17:00. | :17:05. | |
April, if we are in the same position, you can say, Derby County | :17:06. | :17:10. | |
are genuine contenders. At present, we are on a very good run with a lot | :17:11. | :17:16. | |
to prove. McClaren has led the team to the top and the feeling there is | :17:17. | :17:23. | |
plenty more `` is that there is plenty more to come. | :17:24. | :17:25. | |
An exceptional start to Steve McClaren. The Steve McClaren era has | :17:26. | :17:29. | |
started in impressive style. But it coincides with a new start for the | :17:30. | :17:51. | |
stadium here. Tomorrow, Pride Park will be re`named the iPro Stadium in | :17:52. | :17:54. | |
a sponsorship deal worth ?7 million. Look, the signs are already | :17:55. | :17:58. | |
up. More on that is a minute but the team Derby and everyone is chasing | :17:59. | :18:01. | |
at the top is of course near neighbours Leicester City. | :18:02. | :18:03. | |
Leicester manager Nigel Pearson says many of his team have an extra | :18:04. | :18:06. | |
incentive to perform to stay at the top of the league. 11 first`team | :18:07. | :18:10. | |
players are out of contract in the summer, including Kasper | :18:11. | :18:15. | |
Schmeichel, Wes Morgan and David Nugent. We will have to see if it | :18:16. | :18:22. | |
has an impact. Hopefully it doesn't. Players have focused very well so | :18:23. | :18:29. | |
far in doing the job. Like anybody else, they will want to get their | :18:30. | :18:33. | |
future is sorted out but they have a better chance of doing that if we | :18:34. | :18:38. | |
remain successful. Pearson's contract expires in the summer. | :18:39. | :18:44. | |
Football management is not exactly these most secure job in the world. | :18:45. | :18:49. | |
I don't really think, in some ways, the contract situation is something | :18:50. | :18:56. | |
that I need to be overly concerned about. And it's not going to affect | :18:57. | :19:00. | |
how I do the job one way or the other. I am just cracking on. The | :19:01. | :19:05. | |
next test, a game at Brighton tomorrow. | :19:06. | :19:11. | |
We have come back inside. As have all of these people, to see a proper | :19:12. | :19:20. | |
hero. We will be talking to him in a minute and revealing who that is. | :19:21. | :19:28. | |
First, the rest of the action. Nottingham Forest are eighth in the | :19:29. | :19:32. | |
Championship and a way to Sheffield Wednesday. In league one, Notts | :19:33. | :19:41. | |
County have jailing them. Mansfield are in FA Cup second round action. | :19:42. | :19:46. | |
In rugby, Leicester Tigers have a crucial game in the European cup. I | :19:47. | :19:50. | |
hope you saw our feature yesterday building up to that. And our best | :19:51. | :19:56. | |
wishes to Mark Selby, the defending UK champion. The semi finals this | :19:57. | :20:01. | |
weekend, he is defending his title. Let us meet the man all these people | :20:02. | :20:07. | |
are here to meet. Former club captain at Derby County. A legend. | :20:08. | :20:13. | |
Welcome back! Are you pleased to be back? I am always pleased to be back | :20:14. | :20:18. | |
here. It was a special place for you, what are your best memories? It | :20:19. | :20:23. | |
brings memories back, only good ones. I never had any bad memory | :20:24. | :20:29. | |
from here. Even when I left a long time ago, this club, these people, I | :20:30. | :20:36. | |
always have it in my heart. Wherever I am, Derby County is with me. | :20:37. | :20:41. | |
Walking back in with a lot of people you were around, they are running | :20:42. | :20:49. | |
the place! That is why I am here. I have a strong feeling good and | :20:50. | :20:52. | |
positive things are happening here. I came actually to be a good | :20:53. | :20:59. | |
supporter to my old friends come in improving their home run. | :21:00. | :21:05. | |
What next view, there are some job openings in England. We will see. It | :21:06. | :21:09. | |
is too soon. It is interesting. But... What I intend to do is spend | :21:10. | :21:16. | |
Christmas and New Year with my family, then look for another | :21:17. | :21:20. | |
challenge. If they invited you to be part of things at Derby County, | :21:21. | :21:25. | |
would you jump? We will see. No rush. We will let you get to these | :21:26. | :21:34. | |
people. A real legend here at Derby County. Lots going on at the | :21:35. | :21:40. | |
weekend. Follow it on BBC local radio for commentary. | :21:41. | :21:42. | |
It's that time of the year when men dress as women, women dress as men, | :21:43. | :21:48. | |
and usually everyone lives happily ever after. Yes, the panto season is | :21:49. | :21:52. | |
upon us and, at the Theatre Royal in Nottingham, Peter Pan is littered | :21:53. | :21:58. | |
with star names. I spent a little time this afternoon backstage with a | :21:59. | :22:01. | |
magical mermaid and Captain Hook, aka the lovely Sue Pollard, and the | :22:02. | :22:04. | |
legend that is the Hoff, David Hasselhoff. It was mad. | :22:05. | :22:15. | |
Can I enter a moment. Hi, how are you. It is lovely to see you both. | :22:16. | :22:26. | |
Tuesday sitting down. How is it going, it sounds fabulous. It is | :22:27. | :22:30. | |
going better than last year. Last year, we had no full dress | :22:31. | :22:35. | |
rehearsal. I have heard technical rehearsal is so difficult with so | :22:36. | :22:42. | |
much flying. Do you fly? Not at all. But, each gentleman helping with the | :22:43. | :22:50. | |
flying in the wings, it is almost choreographed, like bell`ringing. It | :22:51. | :22:57. | |
has got to be precise. Health and safety. We've only lost two cast | :22:58. | :23:02. | |
members. They weren't very nice anyway! You seem to be get along | :23:03. | :23:07. | |
like a house on fire. We are old school. We earned our fame! We | :23:08. | :23:14. | |
started off very young. We hit the boards early. That's why we love | :23:15. | :23:17. | |
each other. We have been around the block. I have a co`presenter, | :23:18. | :23:23. | |
Dominic. I wouldn't say he is old but he's not young. He wanted a bit | :23:24. | :23:29. | |
of advice how to retain this ability to be eye candy. Surround yourself | :23:30. | :23:34. | |
with beautiful women. You want to look good for the girls and | :23:35. | :23:38. | |
yourself. You were here 30 years ago. You look as if you must have | :23:39. | :23:46. | |
been two years old. I was ten. I was the youngest! I can't believe I have | :23:47. | :23:53. | |
had to wait all this time to come back to Nottingham to do a panto. | :23:54. | :24:03. | |
You broken all the records already. We haven't even opened up yet! One | :24:04. | :24:09. | |
last thing, how are you finding the area. Do you love it here? I love it | :24:10. | :24:16. | |
here. I am a real fan. I have a little disguise, as walk around and | :24:17. | :24:23. | |
see, and embrace the past because it's still here. It still feels like | :24:24. | :24:28. | |
a medieval city. Will you come back? Absolutely. The main thing is, | :24:29. | :24:33. | |
when he comes back again, he will have deciphered all the accents. " | :24:34. | :24:39. | |
??FORCEDCAPNEXT what was that? What are you talking about? ! " | :24:40. | :24:44. | |
I just wait for my cube if I don't understand anything. I know you have | :24:45. | :24:53. | |
a dress rehearsal. Good luck with the opening night. Don't you just | :24:54. | :24:55. | |
love us! Yes, they do. Fabulous. It was such fun. I could have | :24:56. | :25:09. | |
chatted with all afternoon. I have taken the advice of surrounding | :25:10. | :25:13. | |
myself with beautiful women. Thankfully, things have calmed down | :25:14. | :25:17. | |
after the disruptive weather yesterday. The Atlantic storm has | :25:18. | :25:24. | |
cleared away to Scandinavia. Over the weekend, high`pressure moves in | :25:25. | :25:30. | |
to the south. That will dominate, keeping us really quite settled. The | :25:31. | :25:35. | |
winds will be light at the weekend. Less cold. Generally dry. We may see | :25:36. | :25:40. | |
some sunshine tomorrow. Do you get out and about. | :25:41. | :25:47. | |
Tonight, still fairly cold at the moment. We start to see showers | :25:48. | :25:51. | |
moving in from the north`west with the risk of ice early this evening. | :25:52. | :25:56. | |
The showers may be witchy over higher ground. Then, milder air from | :25:57. | :26:01. | |
the West and temperatures will start to rise in the early hours. | :26:02. | :26:07. | |
Temperatures down to three degrees. A frost free start to Saturday. Less | :26:08. | :26:13. | |
cold tomorrow, feeling milder. Cloud around first thing but that should | :26:14. | :26:15. | |
break 0 around first thing but that should | :26:16. | :26:17. | |
break up. Some lovely sunny intervals the day. Dry for most of | :26:18. | :26:24. | |
us will stop one or two rogue showers in the Peak District. A high | :26:25. | :26:29. | |
of eight degrees in the south`west. Looking further ahead at Sunday. Not | :26:30. | :26:34. | |
too bad. Generally, a bit of cloud around. It looks like a dry day. A | :26:35. | :26:42. | |
high of 10 degrees on Sunday. Two or three degrees higher than what we | :26:43. | :26:47. | |
would expect. A good compromise after the cold day today. The | :26:48. | :26:52. | |
outlook, Saturday, bright spells, more cloud on Sunday. Staying mild | :26:53. | :26:59. | |
on Monday, 10 degrees again. In the middle of next week, it is set to | :27:00. | :27:04. | |
get a little bit colder. A brief cold snap today but milder for the | :27:05. | :27:06. | |
weekend. Finally from us, you may remember on | :27:07. | :27:11. | |
last night's programme, we told you about the two`year`old girl from | :27:12. | :27:13. | |
Southwell in Nottinghamshire, who suffers from muscular dystrophy. And | :27:14. | :27:17. | |
who, this year, was asked to turn on her town's Christmas lights. This | :27:18. | :27:20. | |
was the moment Iris Jaworski waved her magic wand to switch on the | :27:21. | :27:27. | |
lights. She was joined by dozens of local school children. Her parents | :27:28. | :27:36. | |
have said they hope the event will help raise money for research into | :27:37. | :27:38. | |
her condition. That's all from us. Join us again | :27:39. | :27:44. | |
during the ten o'clock news. Goodbye. | :27:45. | :27:46. |
