Inspectors dish the dirt on failing GP surgeries. This small part this | :00:14. | :00:20. | |
has been at the centre of the national attention all day after | :00:21. | :00:27. | |
maggots were discovered there. A retrial in the spring for a | :00:28. | :00:30. | |
Loughborough teenager accused of terrorism offences. | :00:31. | :00:36. | |
Plus, councillors here will decide tonight the fate of a much loved | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
area of Nottingham which has been at the heart of a controversial | :00:41. | :00:45. | |
development plan for years. How these wacky winter warmers are | :00:46. | :00:50. | |
putting Leicester back on the Mac as the home of many fat drink `` on the | :00:51. | :01:05. | |
map as the home of manufacturing. Good evening and welcome to the | :01:06. | :01:08. | |
programme. First tonight, dirty rooms, maggots, cobwebs and sticky | :01:09. | :01:12. | |
surfaces. Hardly a clean bill of health for a GP surgery. | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
And the problems don't stop there. At other practices in the East | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
Midlands, spot checks by the Care Quality Commission uncovered drug | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
errors and failures in the way sensitive, personal information is | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
protected. Our health correspondent Rob Sissons reports. | :01:26. | :01:32. | |
This small local practice has been at the centre of the national | :01:33. | :01:37. | |
attention all day after maggots were discovered there by inspectors. Most | :01:38. | :01:42. | |
patients did not seem all that worried today. The surgery insists | :01:43. | :01:49. | |
they have cleaned up their racks following October's inspection. | :01:50. | :01:52. | |
Dirt, maggots, it is not what you expect down the doctors. Not nice. I | :01:53. | :02:00. | |
might go back to my old surgery. It seems pretty clean to me. I have | :02:01. | :02:08. | |
been coming here for ten, 15 years. It has always been clean. I come | :02:09. | :02:13. | |
here to collect and order prescriptions and it seems | :02:14. | :02:19. | |
marvellous. In Leicestershire, out of 900 inspected across England, | :02:20. | :02:22. | |
this surgery is one of ten where problems were so serious enforcement | :02:23. | :02:28. | |
actions were taken. This surgery was not doing enough to protect | :02:29. | :02:34. | |
vulnerable people from abuse. Another East Midlands surgery is | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
also on the list of ten. Mistakes were found in the supply of | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
medicines. For the doctor leading the new GP inspection regime, it is | :02:43. | :02:46. | |
all about the patient getting more information. One of the problems | :02:47. | :02:53. | |
this patients do not know what a bad or dangerous surgery years. One of | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
the things we are going to do is learn from the inspections and start | :02:59. | :03:04. | |
rating surgeries. The criticised actresses say they have put things | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
right. The maggots have gone but people lost all talking about it. `` | :03:09. | :03:15. | |
people are still talking about it. Earlier, I spoke to Jill Matthews of | :03:16. | :03:18. | |
NHS England. She concedes that examples of dirty surgeries will | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
grab the headlines, but such cases are extremely rare. The vast | :03:22. | :03:29. | |
majority of our GP practices are they really high standard. We have | :03:30. | :03:35. | |
over 800 in the East Midlands. The vast majority are providing | :03:36. | :03:38. | |
excellent services to patients every day. The inspections have showed | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
that a third were not up to the required standard. What we have to | :03:44. | :03:49. | |
remember is those first inspections have been targeted where they think | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
the worst problems are rather than across the board. We are confident | :03:53. | :03:59. | |
the vast majority of working really hard to provide excellent services | :04:00. | :04:02. | |
in safe and clean buildings. What can NHS England do to support those | :04:03. | :04:08. | |
who are struggling? As soon as NHS managers become aware there are | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
issues, we work with the practices to point out what the problems are | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
and describes the ways we would expect them to improve. We regularly | :04:18. | :04:21. | |
work with them to make sure the improvements are made. At the | :04:22. | :04:26. | |
inspections useful? The BMA are talking about them as being | :04:27. | :04:31. | |
simplistic and a blunt instrument. I think they are part of a whole range | :04:32. | :04:37. | |
of things that are in place to ensure we can guarantee the quality | :04:38. | :04:42. | |
of services to the population. Yes, they are useful tool alongside other | :04:43. | :04:46. | |
quality assurance tools. This is just the start of the process. The | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
inspections will continue and cover a broader range of services as they | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
develop. We will be looking at out of our services as well as the in | :04:56. | :05:06. | |
our services. Thank you. Two Loughborough teenagers who were | :05:07. | :05:09. | |
arrested as part of a terror investigation have been given | :05:10. | :05:11. | |
community sentences. They both admitted helping a friend make | :05:12. | :05:12. | |
bombs. The friend, who can't be named, is | :05:13. | :05:15. | |
accused of preparing a Columbine`style school massacre. But | :05:16. | :05:20. | |
last month a jury failed to agree on whether he was guilty of terrorist | :05:21. | :05:23. | |
offences. Today he was ordered to stand trial again. | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
Our social affairs correspondent, Jeremy Ball, has been at the Old | :05:28. | :05:31. | |
Bailey. Jeremy, what happened at the Old Bailey today? There were two | :05:32. | :05:38. | |
separate court hearings today. The first involved with the teenager on | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
trial in London for several weeks. He admitted possessing explosives | :05:42. | :05:48. | |
but the jury could not agree on whether he was guilty of more | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
serious terrorism charges. Today the judge ordered a retrial to begin on | :05:53. | :05:57. | |
the 3rd of March. Here's to nine `` he is denying possessing a poison 's | :05:58. | :06:05. | |
manual that is banned and also a list of weapons and plans which the | :06:06. | :06:10. | |
prosecution say work intentions to commit an act of terrorism. What | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
about his two friends? They appeared in the dock for sentencing. They | :06:16. | :06:20. | |
looked pretty nervous. We heard that one of them was videoed helping | :06:21. | :06:26. | |
their friend to test Molotov cocktails. We heard the other one | :06:27. | :06:33. | |
was caught on CCTV at a DIY store in Loughborough helping the friend by | :06:34. | :06:39. | |
piping to make an improvised bomb. The judge said both of them were | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
followers rather than instigators. Neither of them wanted to take part | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
in any attack. Because of that, he gave them a community sentence, a | :06:48. | :06:55. | |
youth rehabilitation order. How did they get involved? They became | :06:56. | :07:01. | |
friends at school because they had been bullied. They are still 17 and | :07:02. | :07:04. | |
that is why we cannot identify them. The judge said there chats contained | :07:05. | :07:12. | |
racist and anti`Muslim comments and they had been searching the Internet | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
for information about explosives. The judge said that any | :07:18. | :07:21. | |
experimentation with weapons or bombs had to be taken very | :07:22. | :07:29. | |
seriously. Police have named a woman who was | :07:30. | :07:33. | |
found dead at her home on Tuesday night. 70`year`old Sandra Bainbridge | :07:34. | :07:36. | |
was discovered at the house on Short Row at Belper in Derbyshire. Police | :07:37. | :07:39. | |
are appealing for anyone who may have seen people visiting Sandra in | :07:40. | :07:42. | |
the days before her death to contact them. A 37`year`old woman has been | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
arrested on suspicion of murder and remains in custody. | :07:47. | :07:49. | |
A follow`up report about the controversial Muslim free school in | :07:50. | :07:52. | |
Derby says there are still no signs of improvement in the school. It | :07:53. | :07:55. | |
comes just weeks after the Al`Madinah was placed in special | :07:56. | :07:58. | |
measures for failing its pupils. A new inspection on 29th November | :07:59. | :08:01. | |
found tensions between the governing body and senior leadership team. The | :08:02. | :08:04. | |
report says governors are working hard, but are too busy with | :08:05. | :08:07. | |
day`to`day running of the school to monitor senior leaders. | :08:08. | :08:18. | |
One of our air ambulances is on stand`by to help another region | :08:19. | :08:20. | |
following the sudden grounding of some of the national fleet of | :08:21. | :08:23. | |
helicopters today. The Derbyshire, Leicestershire and Rutland Air | :08:24. | :08:26. | |
Ambulance is ready to fly to North West England after its air ambulance | :08:27. | :08:29. | |
was grounded. Checks are needed on the North West Air Ambulance | :08:30. | :08:32. | |
following the recent helicopter crash in Glasgow. None of our police | :08:33. | :08:35. | |
helicopters, however are affected by safety checks and are all operating | :08:36. | :08:38. | |
normally, although some are having their operating fuel levels | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
increased as a precaution. Still to come: The feeding of the | :08:44. | :08:48. | |
5,000. Actually, it's more than that. We | :08:49. | :08:51. | |
find out what goes into producing 32,000 school Christmas dinners. | :08:52. | :09:02. | |
Next tonight, it's decision time. Controversial plans to build | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
thousands of new houses around Nottingham could be agreed this | :09:07. | :09:09. | |
evening. 2,500 homes are planned at Gamston and an extra 300 on | :09:10. | :09:12. | |
Sharphill Woods within the next 15 years. | :09:13. | :09:17. | |
Protestors have gathered outside Rushcliffe Borough Council for the | :09:18. | :09:20. | |
meeting where the plans are expected to be approved. Our reporter Navtej | :09:21. | :09:30. | |
Johal is there. Good evening. Protesters are | :09:31. | :09:34. | |
starting to gather here. It must feel a little bit like deja vu. This | :09:35. | :09:39. | |
issue has been rumbling on for a number of years. Plans have been put | :09:40. | :09:46. | |
forward at turndown. By the end of this evening, we should be closer to | :09:47. | :09:51. | |
a resolution `` put forward and turned down. Protecting the green | :09:52. | :09:58. | |
belt has become a divisive issue. Tonight the council is expected to | :09:59. | :10:03. | |
approve changes for plans to build more homes than originally intended. | :10:04. | :10:07. | |
Last year the planning inspector turned down the proposal for | :10:08. | :10:14. | |
building 9500 homes in the borough. Now it is increasing the number to | :10:15. | :10:23. | |
over 13,000. 2500 will be in a town were originally none were planned. | :10:24. | :10:31. | |
An extra 300 homes are planned for Edward and 500 more for an area | :10:32. | :10:34. | |
south of Clifton. If the changes are approved, they will be sent to the | :10:35. | :10:39. | |
planning inspector. There will be public hearings in the spring. | :10:40. | :10:44. | |
Earlier this evening I spoke to the leader of the borough council and I | :10:45. | :10:47. | |
asked him why the plans were likely to go ahead despite strong local | :10:48. | :10:53. | |
opposition. It is important we approve the plan so it can go | :10:54. | :10:55. | |
forward to the inspector because without a plan we would have no | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
control at all over any unwanted development. Whilst nobody is happy | :11:01. | :11:04. | |
about making these decisions tonight, nevertheless, as a | :11:05. | :11:09. | |
responsible council, we must make these decisions so we can have some | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
control over facilities, infrastructure and then we can also | :11:15. | :11:17. | |
control where we do not want developments taking place. Joining | :11:18. | :11:26. | |
me now is a lady from the campaign. Why are you so opposed to the | :11:27. | :11:31. | |
building of the homes? It is a very beautiful area. On the ridge line, | :11:32. | :11:40. | |
you can see for miles around. We are worried that the additional houses | :11:41. | :11:44. | |
they are planning to put there would put extreme pressure on the area we | :11:45. | :11:47. | |
want to preserve. We are hoping there will be a park there that | :11:48. | :11:52. | |
would be an amenity for everybody. This housing plan would put pressure | :11:53. | :11:58. | |
on the woods, on the facilities around and about. The council said | :11:59. | :12:03. | |
earlier that despite that, there is still urgent need for new housing. | :12:04. | :12:07. | |
Is this a case of not in my backyard? I think the council will | :12:08. | :12:16. | |
continue to build around the area. But I am saying we need to preserve | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
some green spaces for all of the people from all of those houses to | :12:21. | :12:24. | |
use in the future. People have been wise in the past and they have left | :12:25. | :12:30. | |
places as an open space for people to use. I am suggesting we do the | :12:31. | :12:36. | |
same here. The meeting in which the changes to the plans are likely to | :12:37. | :12:39. | |
be approved is going to start in about 20 minutes. If it gets the | :12:40. | :12:45. | |
go`ahead, building work should begin in 2015. In other news tonight: A | :12:46. | :12:58. | |
patient helpline opened today for anyone concerned about the | :12:59. | :13:00. | |
performance of a liver surgeon who worked in Leicester. | :13:01. | :13:03. | |
Professor David Berry who moved to Cardiff in 2011 was suspended there | :13:04. | :13:09. | |
in January. A recent review concluded eight patient deaths in | :13:10. | :13:19. | |
his care in Wales were avoidable. Leicester's NHS Hospitals Trust is | :13:20. | :13:23. | |
now looking into his work here. The Princess Royal has planted the | :13:24. | :13:27. | |
final tree for the Jubilee Woods project in Grantham. There are now | :13:28. | :13:30. | |
88,000 trees at Grantham's Barracks at Old Somerby Hill. The scheme, to | :13:31. | :13:33. | |
mark the Queen's Diamond Jubilee, has been overseen by the Woodland | :13:34. | :13:36. | |
Trust. It's one of 60 new Diamond Woods across the country. | :13:37. | :13:42. | |
An East Midlands researcher believes she's taken a big step forward in | :13:43. | :13:45. | |
the treatment of Tourette's syndrome. Around of third of young | :13:46. | :13:48. | |
people affected by uncontrolled tics never get better as they reach | :13:49. | :13:54. | |
adulthood. Now though, a magnetic field treatment being developed in | :13:55. | :13:56. | |
Nottingham offers hope for sufferers. Simon Ward reports. | :13:57. | :14:05. | |
This machine passes a magnetic field through the brain. The research team | :14:06. | :14:10. | |
at the University of Nottingham have discovered the mechanism in the | :14:11. | :14:14. | |
brain that controls the physical movements and vocal sounds made by | :14:15. | :14:19. | |
children with Tourette's. The promise of this approach is that we | :14:20. | :14:22. | |
might be able to reduce cortical excitability for long periods of | :14:23. | :14:30. | |
time based on a simple, safe, noninvasive brain stimulations | :14:31. | :14:32. | |
technique. A very mild electric current is passed through the brain | :14:33. | :14:37. | |
full 20 minutes. As a result, the suggestion is it might reduce the | :14:38. | :14:43. | |
text. It could help children who suffer from the condition at a | :14:44. | :14:48. | |
crucial time in their lives. It would be very helpful for them | :14:49. | :14:53. | |
because it can be very debilitating, especially in social situations and | :14:54. | :14:58. | |
at school and at such a critical age. It would be very portable for | :14:59. | :15:03. | |
them be able to have treatment that works. Sophia who is a member of the | :15:04. | :15:10. | |
research team describes how it feels. The first few times is a bit | :15:11. | :15:16. | |
funny. Your muscle contracts. It is not unpleasant at all. It is quite | :15:17. | :15:22. | |
strange. It is hoped it could lead to new drug`free treatments. | :15:23. | :15:35. | |
Still to come: Sport's on the oche. We'll have Jamie Caven in the studio | :15:36. | :15:38. | |
ahead of the World Darts Championships which start tomorrow | :15:39. | :15:48. | |
and he's bringing his dartboard. In fact, I think he has a woody | :15:49. | :15:52. | |
brought it! Still to come: Next, it was a | :15:53. | :16:02. | |
household name in the 1970s and '80s, but it folded after being sold | :16:03. | :16:05. | |
off. Now in a sign that the economy in | :16:06. | :16:09. | |
the East Midlands is starting to recover, Sweater Shop is back. | :16:10. | :16:11. | |
Eleanor Garnier's been finding out how much of the company's success is | :16:12. | :16:15. | |
down to the popularity of the Christmas jumper. | :16:16. | :16:21. | |
This factory is the home of the Christmas knitted jumper. The | :16:22. | :16:30. | |
Sweater Shop started life as a company in the 1970s. It was based | :16:31. | :16:36. | |
up the road and had two factories in the Leicester area. 22 years later, | :16:37. | :16:43. | |
it was sold for ?150 million. Within 24 months, the company had folded. | :16:44. | :16:48. | |
Now despite being in his 80s, the original owner has relaunched the | :16:49. | :16:53. | |
business. It is his grandson who was in charge. Lester was where we were | :16:54. | :17:00. | |
the first time round. We know it well. The skilled labour is here. | :17:01. | :17:05. | |
These people make the best jumpers in the world. Over the past two | :17:06. | :17:11. | |
years, sales have rocketed. But how much is the popularity of the | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
Christmas jumper part of that boom? Christmas jumpers are huge part but | :17:17. | :17:22. | |
it is the feel`good factor. They are loving the name coming back. Is it | :17:23. | :17:29. | |
the proper Sweater Shop? Yes, it is. The British Chambers of Commerce | :17:30. | :17:32. | |
have said next year the UK economy will bounce back from the recession. | :17:33. | :17:38. | |
Is that something you recognise? We are confident the orders we have and | :17:39. | :17:41. | |
the way things are going, we are already looking for bigger premises. | :17:42. | :17:46. | |
People who have been on benefits are so glad to be learning the trade. It | :17:47. | :17:51. | |
is brilliant. This factory can churn out more than 1700 pieces of | :17:52. | :17:56. | |
clothing a week. As demand increases, so does the pressure to | :17:57. | :18:05. | |
move into a bigger factory. I have not got a Christmas jumper. | :18:06. | :18:11. | |
It is Christmas jumper date tomorrow. | :18:12. | :18:17. | |
You could knit us one, dear viewer. On our Facebook page, you can see | :18:18. | :18:21. | |
some of the team wearing the Christmas jumpers. Why don't you | :18:22. | :18:30. | |
send us a picture of you wearing your favourite Christmas jumper so | :18:31. | :18:33. | |
we can put it up as part of our Facebook gallery? It is time for | :18:34. | :18:45. | |
sport now. I do not have a Christmas jumper | :18:46. | :18:52. | |
either! The eagle`eyed may have spotted a | :18:53. | :18:55. | |
dartboard behind me there. We'll explain why that's here in a moment. | :18:56. | :18:58. | |
But starting tonight with football because Leicester City may be | :18:59. | :19:01. | |
looking to strengthen their squad after striker Chris Wood has been | :19:02. | :19:05. | |
sidelined for at least a month. With that and the rest of the sports | :19:06. | :19:09. | |
news, here's Angela. Frustration ahead of a massive week | :19:10. | :19:16. | |
of fixtures. This could be the man to replace Chris Wood. No official | :19:17. | :19:23. | |
confirmation yet but Pearson admitted they may need cover. You | :19:24. | :19:28. | |
would like all of your players to be available but unfortunately from | :19:29. | :19:34. | |
time to time people pick an injury. For Chris, it is doubly disappointed | :19:35. | :19:38. | |
because he has not been in the starting line. In rugby, uncertainty | :19:39. | :19:44. | |
about Toby Flood. His contract is coming to an end. He could be | :19:45. | :19:48. | |
tempted by a big`money move. Of course we want to keep him. He is | :19:49. | :19:54. | |
instrumental to what we do. We will do whatever we can to make it | :19:55. | :19:59. | |
happen, financially, personally. Nottingham ice dancers have been | :20:00. | :20:06. | |
named in the GB Winter Olympic team. They are the current British | :20:07. | :20:08. | |
champions. But as we heard and programme macro last month, the fact | :20:09. | :20:12. | |
they are competing is quite something dash back on East Midlands | :20:13. | :20:19. | |
Today. He has been diagnosed with a life`threatening heart condition. | :20:20. | :20:22. | |
Time to explain the dartboard and introduce today's special guest. | :20:23. | :20:26. | |
This is Jamie Jabba Cavan, one of the world's top players. He was born | :20:27. | :20:30. | |
in Leicester, he lives in Derby and on Sunday he gets his campaign under | :20:31. | :20:34. | |
way in the PDC World Championships, darts' biggest and certainly | :20:35. | :20:42. | |
noisiest event. Jamie, we met earlier in the year and you told me | :20:43. | :20:46. | |
2013 would be your year. Are you still on track? It has been good so | :20:47. | :20:54. | |
far. I think I just won the two pro events when we spoke last. I have | :20:55. | :20:59. | |
had good runs in some of the big majors since then. Tell us about the | :21:00. | :21:09. | |
PDC championship. It is massive. The worlds is the biggest. Everybody | :21:10. | :21:13. | |
gets dressed up and enjoys themselves. It is rock 'n' roll. It | :21:14. | :21:19. | |
makes dads what it is. We can have a look at some pictures. `` it makes | :21:20. | :21:27. | |
the arts what it is. You get Prince Harry turning up. You also get Phil | :21:28. | :21:35. | |
Taylor, the champion, here's a darting machine. Astonishing. He is | :21:36. | :21:41. | |
the best. He is what everybody has to chase. He sets the level and | :21:42. | :21:45. | |
raises the bar all of the time. That is why everybody else's aim is | :21:46. | :21:50. | |
getting better. It attracts massive crowds. How do you build it from | :21:51. | :22:00. | |
those massive crowds and turned it into a sport? I think it has been | :22:01. | :22:06. | |
known as a well`known sport now for the last few years. The crowds have | :22:07. | :22:09. | |
got bigger because of the popularity and the TV. Everybody likes to get | :22:10. | :22:15. | |
dressed up and enjoy the atmosphere. It generates the buzz. You have got | :22:16. | :22:26. | |
plans to bring an young players `` bring on. Blimey! That was a good | :22:27. | :22:35. | |
140. I have got an Academy starting in Derby. Open day on the 8th of | :22:36. | :22:42. | |
January. It is for kids from six to 16. Hopefully we will branch out. | :22:43. | :22:46. | |
The talent is to be nurtured and that is what we will do. You tried | :22:47. | :22:52. | |
to teach me. If I remember correctly, you were not complement | :22:53. | :22:55. | |
tree about my stance. It was not great. Can I have another go? Of | :22:56. | :23:03. | |
course you can. No warm up. These are different... I hit the board. A | :23:04. | :23:12. | |
good start! Not bad. I will take that. Thank you very much. I missed | :23:13. | :23:20. | |
you as well which is always good. I was very relieved that you missed | :23:21. | :23:24. | |
us. You have not got the right shoes on. We have got to move on. | :23:25. | :23:30. | |
Now, making Christmas dinner can be a stressful affair. But imagine | :23:31. | :23:36. | |
making it for 32,000. I can't think of anything worse! | :23:37. | :23:39. | |
Well, that's the number of primary children who've been tucking into | :23:40. | :23:42. | |
their Christmas school meal in Nottinghamshire this week. And | :23:43. | :23:45. | |
here's the good news. The people who plan those meals, buy food from | :23:46. | :23:48. | |
local suppliers wherever possible. Angelina Socci reports. Hello. These | :23:49. | :24:01. | |
schoolchildren have dropped into a butchers in Nottinghamshire to find | :24:02. | :24:06. | |
out where their school dinners come from. The turkey was bigger than I | :24:07. | :24:12. | |
expected. It smells really good. The meat comes from near here. We can | :24:13. | :24:20. | |
make a cost saving going to local producers. We can buy better quality | :24:21. | :24:25. | |
ingredients. After the horse meat scandal, there is more demand than | :24:26. | :24:30. | |
ever for knowing exactly where meters from. We source carcass meat | :24:31. | :24:37. | |
so we do not buy anything that could be disguised as anything else. Back | :24:38. | :24:43. | |
at the school, these books are feeling the heat. Christmas lunch | :24:44. | :24:51. | |
for 160. It is really stressful. The ingredient budget is around 70p per | :24:52. | :24:58. | |
meal. Around five and had 40 calories and `` around 540 calories. | :24:59. | :25:08. | |
It is so busy. We have good start. It is like it is Christmas. I like | :25:09. | :25:18. | |
the mashed potato. Why? It has all of my favourite things on it. Lots | :25:19. | :25:25. | |
of other children are trying school lunch for the first time. We | :25:26. | :25:28. | |
normally have 100. Hopefully more will have it on a regular basis. | :25:29. | :25:37. | |
Happy Christmas, everyone! So sweet. | :25:38. | :25:42. | |
That little boy said, I only like pudding. A more wholesome weather | :25:43. | :25:47. | |
Outlook now. It has been cloudy and overcast | :25:48. | :25:58. | |
today. All of the cloud stays with us. We are expecting there to be a | :25:59. | :26:05. | |
spell of rain. This weather picture was taken earlier today. You can | :26:06. | :26:08. | |
just about see the castle in the background. If you would like to see | :26:09. | :26:12. | |
your picture used, e`mail them to us. Something else you may have | :26:13. | :26:18. | |
noticed, it has been feeling rather mild. Temperatures are unusually | :26:19. | :26:24. | |
high for this time of year tonight. The averages only two degrees. Not | :26:25. | :26:30. | |
too bad at all. It is nine degrees tonight. The wind direction is | :26:31. | :26:36. | |
driving in much milder air. Looking at this Atlantic front, all of the | :26:37. | :26:40. | |
weather fronts pushing their way in, bringing rain over the next few | :26:41. | :26:44. | |
days. At the moment, we have all of the cloud. A little mist and fog | :26:45. | :26:50. | |
forming. In the early hours, we start to see the rain pushing its | :26:51. | :26:54. | |
way through. A spell of rain for a time. Heavy over higher ground. | :26:55. | :26:59. | |
Temperatures, as I mentioned, eight or nine degrees. Tomorrow morning, | :27:00. | :27:06. | |
rain around first thing. For a while it eases. Another band of rain will | :27:07. | :27:10. | |
push its way east as we go into the afternoon. Again, there might be | :27:11. | :27:15. | |
heavy bursts. Temperatures tomorrow, 11 or 12. Breezy with the | :27:16. | :27:23. | |
south`westerly wind. The weekend, a lot of dry weather to be had. Rain | :27:24. | :27:30. | |
arriving Saturday night and clearing Sunday morning. Dry on Sunday. | :27:31. | :27:34. | |
Hanky. I reckon you would get good odds on | :27:35. | :27:37. | |
a white Christmas this year. Are you serious? Not having a white | :27:38. | :27:43. | |
Christmas no, good odds. Never mind. | :27:44. | :27:47. |
