To sleep is alleged to Christmas the BBC's news teams where you are. | :00:07. | :00:08. | |
To sleep is alleged to Christmas about the LDAP is well and truly | :00:09. | :00:13. | |
upon us. In shops, registers or ringing as the last minute shopping | :00:14. | :00:18. | |
gathers pace. We don't want to go out tomorrow because it will be | :00:19. | :00:20. | |
really busy tomorrow so hopefully we will get everything today. Also | :00:21. | :00:25. | |
tonight, how the Anne Boleyn service is bracing for one of the busiest | :00:26. | :00:32. | |
nights of drinking in the year. What now for cricketer James Taylor after | :00:33. | :00:35. | |
the heart condition that forced him from the field. I'm really happy, as | :00:36. | :00:41. | |
happy as I can be. I'm not playing cricket but it's not all doom and | :00:42. | :00:47. | |
grim. The panto marking 50 years of performing for the brothers of | :00:48. | :00:48. | |

Maurice Flynn. It's our last full show before | :01:02. | :01:02. | |
Christmas and it has We'll be hearing from | :01:03. | :01:05. | |
the Highways Agency as millions of us take to the roads and head off | :01:06. | :01:09. | |
on our holidays. Our heath correspondent | :01:10. | :01:12. | |
Rob Sissons is in Derby - he's been talking to people who've | :01:13. | :01:14. | |
finished work for the weekend and are enjoying | :01:15. | :01:16. | |
a night out in the city. This fantastic Christmas display | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
is lighting-up Nuthall in Nottingham and we'll be talking to the man | :01:20. | :01:23. | |
responsible for it. And we've an interview | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
with panto hardy perennials But we start with last | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
minute shopping. Simon Ward is at Leicester's High | :01:30. | :01:31. | |
Cross centre where he's been watching customers pick up | :01:32. | :01:33. | |
the final presents. It is looking good and we are on the | :01:34. | :01:43. | |
bridge overlooking the pedestrianised area. It has been | :01:44. | :01:47. | |
helping down with rain a few minutes ago so that might have amp and some | :01:48. | :01:52. | |
shoppers enthusiasm but experts are quite divided on this. Will sales be | :01:53. | :01:57. | |
up on this time last year or down? Now we have the Black Friday | :01:58. | :02:01. | |
pre-Christmas sales firmly established here in the UK, how much | :02:02. | :02:05. | |
difference could they make? We have been chatting to shoppers here and | :02:06. | :02:08. | |
they seem to be getting what they want. We're going round and round | :02:09. | :02:15. | |
trying to nick sure we get everything we want. We don't want to | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
go out tomorrow because it will be really busy tomorrow so hopefully we | :02:19. | :02:22. | |
will get everything today. We normally do it on Christmas Eve but | :02:23. | :02:25. | |
we decided a day early this year. We've just about got everything. | :02:26. | :02:32. | |
Lots of places have been quite cheap. You are from Poland, are you | :02:33. | :02:41. | |
going to stay you? Mostly I am in Europe and this is the first time I | :02:42. | :02:44. | |
am in England and I will stay for more. It is busy all the time. The | :02:45. | :02:56. | |
other party afterwards. Going quick in and out. Normally not this quick. | :02:57. | :03:02. | |
We got money lots of gifts. It's really busy. I didn't think it would | :03:03. | :03:08. | |
be this busy. We've found everything she wants. Did you spend in the | :03:09. | :03:14. | |
pre-Christmas sales? A bit of both. I come to town quite a lot. It seems | :03:15. | :03:23. | |
very busy here at the shopping centre but let's get some details on | :03:24. | :03:29. | |
that. Joe is the manager. What about football, you have some cult leaders | :03:30. | :03:31. | |
to work out how many people are coming? We have, we have an app now | :03:32. | :03:38. | |
so we have instant, accurate results. Today so far we have had | :03:39. | :03:45. | |
over 80,000 visitors and hopefully another 5,000 still to come in. Is | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
that up on previous years? It is and we need to remember that this week | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
is a longer week leading into Christmas as well so we benefit from | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
that clearly because from when the schools broke up until Christmas | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
Eve, there's that longer period so families can come out and shop | :04:03. | :04:05. | |
together, which is really nice to see. We have the pre-Christmas | :04:06. | :04:10. | |
sales, the Black Friday sales, how much difference does that make? It | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
has changed the way that Christmas shopping and trends happen. What we | :04:16. | :04:23. | |
find is, Black Friday tends to land -- last about ten days. Then we find | :04:24. | :04:30. | |
that there is a dip and you go into that panic mode and then pick up | :04:31. | :04:36. | |
again. It is all spread out? Yes, very different now. It is Saturday | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
tomorrow so there is expected to be lots of sales across the region in | :04:42. | :04:45. | |
places like this and they are open here tonight until 10pm if you still | :04:46. | :04:48. | |
want to keep shopping. Staying with shopping - | :04:49. | :04:50. | |
and trading standards officers here are warning us not to be | :04:51. | :04:52. | |
tempted by the lure of cheap goods Teams from Nottinghamshire | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
have seized fake branded items from a warehouse; | :04:56. | :04:59. | |
while in Leicestershire, hundreds of dangerous objects | :05:00. | :05:01. | |
have been confiscated, that were being imported | :05:02. | :05:04. | |
through East Midlands Airport. In a warehouse at County Hall | :05:05. | :05:10. | |
in Glenfield in Leicestershire, officers from the county's | :05:11. | :05:12. | |
Trading Standards department checked These piles of goods are just two | :05:13. | :05:15. | |
months' worth of poor quality objects seized as they passed | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
through East Midlands Airport, Electrical chargers | :05:22. | :05:27. | |
pose a particular risk. They can be an electrocution | :05:28. | :05:33. | |
risk or a fire risk One thing we would say | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
is definitely do not leave your charger on overnight | :05:40. | :05:47. | |
because of fire risk reasons. In Mansfield, Nottinghamshire County | :05:48. | :05:49. | |
Council's Trading Standards team recently seized potentially unsafe | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
counterfeit electrical items They recovered 450 pieces | :05:54. | :06:00. | |
covering 56 different brands, from a property | :06:01. | :06:08. | |
in Kirkby in Ashfield. They will break, for a partner | :06:09. | :06:16. | |
best, at worst they can kill them | :06:17. | :06:18. | |
because these electrical items are | :06:19. | :06:20. | |
We are in a protest of | :06:21. | :06:23. | |
-- Process of testing but we believe | :06:24. | :06:25. | |
In Leicestershire, the officers will have a smashing | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
time after Christmas, continuing to destroy items | :06:30. | :06:33. | |
to ensure they are unsaleable before they are recycled. | :06:34. | :06:37. | |
James Robeson, BBC EAst Midlands Today. | :06:38. | :06:42. | |
You're watching the last full East Midlands Today of the year, | :06:43. | :06:45. | |
and still lots ahead tonight including this cheeky pair. | :06:46. | :06:53. | |
Hello! Join as later for all the festive fun at the panto. It's | :06:54. | :07:00. | |
great. I was going to say that. Really? | :07:01. | :07:08. | |
But before that, Christmas is already underway for many people | :07:09. | :07:11. | |
who finished work earlier this evening heading for a night out. | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
There's always a danger that revellers will enjoy | :07:16. | :07:18. | |
themselves too much so the East Midlands | :07:19. | :07:20. | |
Ambulance Service is putting on mobile treatment centres, | :07:21. | :07:23. | |
Our health correspondent Rob Sissons is in Derby. | :07:24. | :07:31. | |
Are you having a good time? Yes, there's lots of people having a | :07:32. | :07:40. | |
great time here, a great Christmas atmosphere. This car behind me is | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
being used by a doctor who is out on the road tonight and I can show you | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
over here, the ice rink, lots of people skating and enjoying the | :07:49. | :07:53. | |
build-up to Christmas. We have been around the pubs in Derby today and I | :07:54. | :07:56. | |
can tell you, they have been really busy with great party atmosphere is. | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
It promises to be one of the busiest nights of the year but the emergency | :08:01. | :08:05. | |
services and of course the pubs as well. It has been the busiest day of | :08:06. | :08:13. | |
the year so far. We started getting people in at 11:30. We don't | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
actually open until 12. We have all worked hard so all year and we get | :08:19. | :08:23. | |
together for a drink. Best time of the year. But having a good time. I | :08:24. | :08:28. | |
am here develop it Christmas because I am travelling to Spain on | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
Christmas Day. Celebrating Christmas and today is my last day working in | :08:33. | :08:38. | |
Derby, I'm off to work in London. In search of more money? In search of | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
more money. The Derby people really know how to enjoy themselves, like | :08:44. | :08:55. | |
the Welsh. Happy Christmas! This doctor is a former GP who will be | :08:56. | :08:58. | |
out and about tonight helping people cope with too much to drink. We have | :08:59. | :09:06. | |
people who have just fallen over, people who have been assaulted but | :09:07. | :09:09. | |
the ones that cause is the problems are the ones who have had too much | :09:10. | :09:13. | |
to drink and should have stopped earlier on and gone home. Aggressive | :09:14. | :09:18. | |
drunks, amorous drunks? It's all of those, the competition to see who | :09:19. | :09:23. | |
can be kissed most in the night is the favourite one. Our perspective | :09:24. | :09:27. | |
is looking after yourself and make you sure that you don't get into a | :09:28. | :09:30. | |
situation where you are not in charge. I am out tonight with the | :09:31. | :09:44. | |
doctor. We want to provide an emergency service to the revellers | :09:45. | :09:48. | |
who are out in the city centre. We want to urge people to be sensible | :09:49. | :09:51. | |
and we couldn't continue to provide a service in the area. My advice is | :09:52. | :10:00. | |
to drink slowly, have some soft drinks in between and make sure you | :10:01. | :10:02. | |
and your friends get home safely. Don't abandon people. It's a big | :10:03. | :10:08. | |
night in store for you, good luck with it all. We will have more on | :10:09. | :10:11. | |
that in the coming weeks. The ambulance crews out | :10:12. | :10:13. | |
and about helping people tonight. Among the many charities | :10:14. | :10:17. | |
offering people a place to shelter over Christmas | :10:18. | :10:19. | |
is Framework in Nottingham. They offer emergency accommodation | :10:20. | :10:22. | |
to the homeless and say the number of people in need | :10:23. | :10:25. | |
of their support is growing. Rough sleeping in creased, it | :10:26. | :10:37. | |
doubled actually in the five years to 2015 and we know it has gone up | :10:38. | :10:42. | |
more since then. It is increasing and if you are sleeping rough, there | :10:43. | :10:46. | |
is a greater chance of you being attacked and they would be if you | :10:47. | :10:49. | |
were just tucked up in your own home. | :10:50. | :10:51. | |
You might remember us telling you about Mo Fayose from Nottingham | :10:52. | :10:59. | |
who put an advert online inviting anyone alone on Christmas Day | :11:00. | :11:01. | |
Well today she's been out shopping for the nearly 200 people | :11:02. | :11:06. | |
Needless to say she's also had to find somewhere a little | :11:07. | :11:11. | |
Is a mental health nurse, I find that people get festive loneliness | :11:12. | :11:24. | |
and that got me thinking that we can bring people together and it sounds | :11:25. | :11:31. | |
mad but to me, it's awesome because that will be 200 people smiling | :11:32. | :11:35. | |
which makes me happy. That is a Christmas present for me. | :11:36. | :11:37. | |
Unlike Mo, some of you are choosing to have your Christmas dinner away | :11:38. | :11:40. | |
East Midlands Airport is expecting to see a 14% rise in passengers over | :11:41. | :11:45. | |
the Christmas period compared to 12 months ago. | :11:46. | :11:47. | |
Almost 80,000 people are due to travel from the region's airport | :11:48. | :11:51. | |
over the next week - many of them in search | :11:52. | :11:53. | |
We are going to celebrate Christmas in a different way this year. We are | :11:54. | :12:06. | |
going to Tenerife Island. I am going to see my family in Poland. Jersey. | :12:07. | :12:13. | |
I am spending Christmas with my friend and I am looking forward to | :12:14. | :12:17. | |
it very much. I am hoping it is going to be a lot warmer than here. | :12:18. | :12:23. | |
Today we will see it doesn't people come through the doors and getting | :12:24. | :12:27. | |
on flights to either the family, enjoy summer sun or just get away. | :12:28. | :12:32. | |
Advice for passengers is to end a enough time to get here, make sure | :12:33. | :12:37. | |
you have looked online and know what you cannot have any different pieces | :12:38. | :12:41. | |
of luggage and make you get in time and structure holiday in the right | :12:42. | :12:42. | |
way. Of course many of us will be | :12:43. | :12:44. | |
driving this Christmas - so for the latest news on the state | :12:45. | :12:46. | |
of the roads we can talk to Frank Bird who's an emergency | :12:47. | :12:49. | |
planning officer with the Highways However the major routes looking at | :12:50. | :13:01. | |
the moment? Things are looking really good at the moment. They are, | :13:02. | :13:05. | |
touch wood, quieter than anticipating. We are very grateful | :13:06. | :13:12. | |
for motorists for doing a certain amount of planning and preparing for | :13:13. | :13:16. | |
this Christmas getaway. What is the wider picture of people travelling | :13:17. | :13:22. | |
further out of the region? The further north you go, the roads are | :13:23. | :13:29. | |
still a bit of a challenge. The remains of the storm is still | :13:30. | :13:32. | |
affecting the north of the country and the further east you go, you | :13:33. | :13:36. | |
will go into the tail end of storm of Barbara. Those are the main areas | :13:37. | :13:45. | |
being affected by storm Barbara? Yes, that is very much the case now. | :13:46. | :13:50. | |
Certainly some of the ports on the east coast are experiencing very, | :13:51. | :13:55. | |
very choppy waters so if you are going out tonight on the ferry, do | :13:56. | :13:59. | |
expect unfortunately do have a rough ride as. | :14:00. | :14:04. | |
But if you're not away this Christmas there's still plenty | :14:05. | :14:07. | |
Like visiting one of the many displays of festive lights people | :14:08. | :14:12. | |
That's just what our reporter Navtej Johal is doing right now. | :14:13. | :14:26. | |
Good evening. Welcome to one of the most festive houses you will see | :14:27. | :14:32. | |
anywhere in the East Midlands. But the past 13 years, this family home | :14:33. | :14:37. | |
has been covered in lights and decorations and all the money raised | :14:38. | :14:40. | |
through visitors coming to look at it is going to charity. This year, | :14:41. | :14:45. | |
they have had a particularly record-breaking year and one of the | :14:46. | :14:48. | |
organisers is with me now. This is your family home, you decorate it | :14:49. | :14:52. | |
every year, you had a record-breaking year, how much money | :14:53. | :14:58. | |
have you raise? We have raised ?15,500 as of last night and we will | :14:59. | :15:01. | |
give half to Haywood house and have two when you wish upon a star. What | :15:02. | :15:08. | |
does all of this do to your C Bell? It increases its likely during the | :15:09. | :15:15. | |
month of December, definitely! We put it into our donation box. What | :15:16. | :15:23. | |
do the neighbours make that? Now, our neighbour is absolutely love it. | :15:24. | :15:27. | |
They are here every evening helping us. There are here tonight with | :15:28. | :15:31. | |
their little boy and he helps Santa out, dressed as a little else. The | :15:32. | :15:37. | |
atmosphere here has been amazing. What do you have to say to anyone | :15:38. | :15:41. | |
who has visited or donated? We thank them very much and hope to see them | :15:42. | :15:46. | |
again next year. I've been told that this takes four weeks to set up but | :15:47. | :15:54. | |
just a single day to take down. From here, very Christmas. | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
This time of year wouldn't be complete, I'm told, | :15:59. | :16:00. | |
without a trip to the panto and tonight to me to you to me. | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
You get the idea, the brothers who've been making people chuckle | :16:06. | :16:09. | |
Barry and Paul, best known as the Chuckle Brothers are heading | :16:10. | :16:15. | |
the cast of Jack and the Beanstalk at Nottingham's Theatre Royal. | :16:16. | :16:19. | |
Jo Healey's been to meet the dynamic duo. | :16:20. | :16:33. | |
What did you think of the Chuckle Brothers? Really funny. I like them | :16:34. | :16:38. | |
because they were really funny. We couldn't stop laughing, we had tears | :16:39. | :16:45. | |
streaming down our face. We were watching our grandson and he was in | :16:46. | :16:48. | |
hysterics. They say silly words and that makes me laugh. A great | :16:49. | :17:01. | |
performance! Hello. 50 years in panto. It seems like a long time to | :17:02. | :17:09. | |
me. To you it is. But seriously, do you still love it? Yes, it is | :17:10. | :17:15. | |
enjoyable. It is the one time it year when you work with all sorts of | :17:16. | :17:19. | |
people, actors, singers and dancers and have fun with the audience. We | :17:20. | :17:24. | |
have always liked Nottingham. We're not just saying that because we are | :17:25. | :17:28. | |
here. They have always been a great audience. Doing the clubs in the old | :17:29. | :17:35. | |
days, the best in the country. This is our favourite theatre. You also | :17:36. | :17:41. | |
been to the married jury shop. What does that mean to you? They made us | :17:42. | :17:45. | |
ambassadors earlier this year. They've done great stuff and really | :17:46. | :17:51. | |
look after people very well. You must have loads of memories over bad | :17:52. | :17:58. | |
time. We do, yes. The second one we ever did, we played our part as | :17:59. | :18:02. | |
ourselves but we also played the Cal. I know you got to get off and | :18:03. | :18:12. | |
get back on stage again. Thanks for talking to us. From me, to you. Do | :18:13. | :18:16. | |
you, not to me. To me! To you! Coming up a look ahead | :18:17. | :18:32. | |
to the festive fixture list but first an exclusive interview | :18:33. | :18:35. | |
with the former Nottinghamshire Last year at this time | :18:36. | :18:38. | |
he was playing for England - this Christmas he feels lucky | :18:39. | :18:43. | |
to be alive. Back in April, at the age of 26, | :18:44. | :18:45. | |
a serious heart condition It was one of the most shocking | :18:46. | :18:49. | |
sports stories of the year. Now he's revealed to us that | :18:50. | :18:54. | |
a defibrilator fitted inside his chest has helped | :18:55. | :18:58. | |
to save his life once again. It was a day that changed his life | :18:59. | :19:14. | |
forever, a day when he nearly died but somehow, he survived. A lot of | :19:15. | :19:20. | |
these cases are found in post-moderns, that is the only way | :19:21. | :19:24. | |
they are detected, and it is too late by then but luckily my body did | :19:25. | :19:27. | |
its job and my heart certainly did its job. Yes, I'm very lucky but | :19:28. | :19:34. | |
also unlucky in a lot of ways. I cannot dwell on what could have | :19:35. | :19:36. | |
happened or what should have happened. No one could have | :19:37. | :19:41. | |
predicted how life has turned out. Taylor was in his cricketing primer, | :19:42. | :19:45. | |
playing for England, playing his dream. All I wanted was to play for | :19:46. | :19:53. | |
England and I thought I should have played far more than I did and I | :19:54. | :19:57. | |
just grabbed it with both hands and was just coming good. Then it was | :19:58. | :20:02. | |
altogether away from me again. The best moment I've ever had was one of | :20:03. | :20:07. | |
the last days I ever played cricket for England, catching those catches | :20:08. | :20:13. | |
and winning a game for England. Amongst some great guys in the team, | :20:14. | :20:16. | |
playing for your country, it doesn't get better than that. I achieved my | :20:17. | :20:24. | |
dream but did it less than I had hoped. His health, and ongoing | :20:25. | :20:28. | |
challenge, he is learning a new normal. If art is regulated by a | :20:29. | :20:34. | |
disability. Just because the operation, it saved his life. When | :20:35. | :20:38. | |
most people have an operation, they have it to make something better. I | :20:39. | :20:47. | |
operation was not, but if something was to go wrong, it is a safety net. | :20:48. | :20:50. | |
It has happened again and it certainly did its job and it gave me | :20:51. | :20:55. | |
a shock to say the least. A massive shock. Coming to terms with life | :20:56. | :21:00. | |
after cricket has been tough but a smile is never far away from the man | :21:01. | :21:03. | |
who believes the support from social media helped him through the darkest | :21:04. | :21:09. | |
days. You would be lying in bed being a bit cynical thinking, if I | :21:10. | :21:14. | |
did die, I wonder who would miss me. It was like I had died and was | :21:15. | :21:19. | |
overwhelming. I had 26 million tweets to me about me in the first | :21:20. | :21:27. | |
two hours. Then I think it after 24 hours which is phenomenal and the | :21:28. | :21:31. | |
positivity coming towards my way, I dread to think I would be mentally | :21:32. | :21:36. | |
that support was not there. No longer able to play the games he has | :21:37. | :21:41. | |
devoted his life to, he has developed a new-found love of golf | :21:42. | :21:45. | |
and he is also coaching youngsters, helping to make a difference. I love | :21:46. | :21:51. | |
it. I'm trying to help others and living it through them, to see what | :21:52. | :21:53. | |
they can achieve. Reflecting on the year that so easily could have been | :21:54. | :21:59. | |
his last, he knows he is lucky to be alive. I have always been | :22:00. | :22:04. | |
invincible, the fittest and the strongest and good at cricket. One | :22:05. | :22:09. | |
of the best and then I realised, I'm not in the sport. I'm happy as I can | :22:10. | :22:15. | |
be. I'm not playing cricket or doing what I love but I am more chilled | :22:16. | :22:22. | |
out and I was. Forced upon me but I realised the important things in | :22:23. | :22:23. | |
life and it is not too bad. More from the inspirational | :22:24. | :22:26. | |
James Taylor on the BBC Sport website and there is great news out | :22:27. | :22:31. | |
of Trent Bridge today. Nottinghamshire and England fast | :22:32. | :22:33. | |
bowler Stuart Broad has signed a new three-year contract | :22:34. | :22:36. | |
with the club. Onto football and Claudio Ranieri | :22:37. | :22:39. | |
says the whole world thinks the FA got it wrong over | :22:40. | :22:43. | |
Jamie Vardy's red card. The England striker will miss three | :22:44. | :22:45. | |
key games over Christmas after failing to get his sending off | :22:46. | :22:49. | |
at Stoke last week over turned. All in England, all the world watch | :22:50. | :23:08. | |
fall and all the world said it was not a fall, not a red card. I am and | :23:09. | :23:14. | |
all our club is very surprised. Here's confirmation of those | :23:15. | :23:16. | |
Boxing Day fixtures. Leicester City, Mansfield Town | :23:17. | :23:21. | |
and Notts County fans Meanwhile Nottingham Forest | :23:22. | :23:23. | |
supporters are on their travels Derby County's fans have to wait | :23:24. | :23:26. | |
till Tuesday though for their first In rugby the Leicester Tigers | :23:27. | :23:31. | |
Christmas Eve clash at Exeter will decide which side spends | :23:32. | :23:39. | |
the festive season in And in ice hockey the festive period | :23:40. | :23:42. | |
starts tonight with a game against Dundee Stars | :23:43. | :23:49. | |
at the National Ice Centre and kicks off a Christmas campaign of six | :23:50. | :23:52. | |
matches in just 11 days. And from all the sports team here, | :23:53. | :23:58. | |
we wish you a very Merry Christmas. 80,000 shoppers in Leicester | :23:59. | :24:13. | |
tonight. 80,000 passengers will go out over the weekend through the | :24:14. | :24:17. | |
airports. The weather is next. | :24:18. | :24:26. | |
Stormer Barbara has given us some heavy rain and squally winds as | :24:27. | :24:32. | |
well. The good news is, she has now cleared. Let's take a look at this | :24:33. | :24:37. | |
morning. Some of us managed to get some sunshine as the sun rose this | :24:38. | :24:42. | |
morning. But then Stormer Barbara introduced a lot more in the way of | :24:43. | :24:47. | |
cloud. A lot of rain in there as well but that has now cleared down | :24:48. | :24:51. | |
to the south-east so clearing skies as we head to overnight tonight. It | :24:52. | :24:56. | |
will do is stay quite breezy. We have had gusts of around 50 miles an | :24:57. | :24:59. | |
hour as the storm continues to sink down to the south-east. A lot of | :25:00. | :25:05. | |
surface water on the road but now we are dry and as we head overnight | :25:06. | :25:08. | |
tonight, most of us will stay dry with clearing skies. Ordinarily, | :25:09. | :25:12. | |
that would mean we're looking at Frost and fog but because of the | :25:13. | :25:18. | |
breeze, it shouldn't the bad cold. 4 degrees will be below. John Charles | :25:19. | :25:21. | |
Guy to start Christmas Eve but it will be dry and bright. Quite breezy | :25:22. | :25:25. | |
as well. Through the morning you are at risk of catching the odd isolated | :25:26. | :25:31. | |
shower or two. Many of us will avoid it and through the afternoon, we | :25:32. | :25:34. | |
should be largely dry and bright. Look at the speed of the wind. Still | :25:35. | :25:39. | |
a strong south-westerly breeze with temperatures around eight or 9 | :25:40. | :25:44. | |
degrees. The big night, overnight into Christmas Day, I think Father | :25:45. | :25:48. | |
Christmas is going to be on the mild side and that is thanks to storm on. | :25:49. | :25:57. | |
Introducing strong winds Day. Christmas Day itself, we should be | :25:58. | :26:00. | |
mostly dry. Maybe the odd spot of rain but on the whole, we should be | :26:01. | :26:04. | |
dry but it is very windy and very mild with 13 degrees. Then we go | :26:05. | :26:15. | |
over into Boxing Day. You can see the rain here. That will continue to | :26:16. | :26:19. | |
sink down as we head overnight into Boxing Day. Boxing Day is probably a | :26:20. | :26:24. | |
better day to get out and about with plenty of sunshine and will feel | :26:25. | :26:28. | |
fresher. I pressure starts to build some things will settle down as we | :26:29. | :26:29. | |
go towards dues did. Well that's all from us this | :26:30. | :26:32. | |
evening, we will of course have bulletins throughout | :26:33. | :26:35. | |
the festive period. From everyone at East Midlands Today | :26:36. | :26:37. | |
we'd like to wish you We'll leave you with a special | :26:38. | :26:40. | |
