:01:22. > :01:28.into its reserve savings to pay for ?6 million worth of kit,
:01:29. > :01:31.but it says it needs the cash back to avoid a huge amount of debt,
:01:32. > :01:34.and the resulting cuts. Our political correspondent
:01:35. > :01:43.Karl Mercer has the story. VOICEOVER: It reached just halfway
:01:44. > :01:50.up Grenfell Tower, the aerial platform used by firefighters had to
:01:51. > :01:53.be borrowed from Surrey. Firefighters heading into the blaze
:01:54. > :01:58.had breathing apparatus that lasted just 30 minutes. And drones used to
:01:59. > :02:03.help in the aftermath of the fire had to be borrowed from Kent. The
:02:04. > :02:09.mayor asked the Fire Commissioner to draw up a list of the new kit the
:02:10. > :02:13.brigade needs, she has, it is a long and costly one, they asked for three
:02:14. > :02:19.higher aerial appliances at a cost of ?2.4 million, 1200 new breathing
:02:20. > :02:24.apparatus sets, they will last longer, 45 minutes instead of the
:02:25. > :02:29.current 30, two .8 million. It has asked former pro. New drones, new
:02:30. > :02:38.masks and shirts and pop-up tents. The total bill, ?6.2 million.
:02:39. > :02:41.Michael Fleck Denise spent 30 years working for the brigade, he says

:02:46. > :02:51.happy to see this, especially pleased to see proposal for extended
:02:52. > :02:54.duration breathing apparatus, a lot of people don't realise our
:02:55. > :02:59.firefighters have only 30 minutes air in their standard sets, the
:03:00. > :03:04.proposal for 40 minutes is a great increase in capacity. Also the
:03:05. > :03:08.question of who will pay, the government is -- the brigade is
:03:09. > :03:11.raiding reserves for the new kit but once the government to pay in the
:03:12. > :03:15.long term. I have said to the commission, undertake a serious
:03:16. > :03:18.review, I have promised my Commissioner that she will get what
:03:19. > :03:21.she needs but the government must provide the resources to make sure
:03:22. > :03:25.brave firefighters have the equipment they need. There are
:03:26. > :03:28.worries that extra run is costs of ?6 million a year will leave the
:03:29. > :03:33.brigade facing a huge black hole in its budget in three years' time. It
:03:34. > :03:36.could be as much as ?30 million Winnie to find, that is around the
:03:37. > :03:41.scale of the cut that we saw under Boris Johnson where we saw ten fire
:03:42. > :03:46.stations close, we saw the removal of a large number of fire appliances
:03:47. > :03:51.and fire engines and the loss of 500 firefighter jobs. -- it could be ?30
:03:52. > :03:55.million that we need to find. We are determined that will not happen. We
:03:56. > :03:58.ask the Home Office for an interview, they declined. London's

:04:08. > :04:10.waiting in accident and emergency after having a miscarriage,
:04:11. > :04:12.with her dead baby in her handbag. Tammy Anderson, who lives
:04:13. > :04:15.in Dagenham, went to Queens hospital in Romford after losing her
:04:16. > :04:17.baby that morning. Caroline Davies has
:04:18. > :04:18.been speaking to her. What does the mother
:04:19. > :04:25.say happened Carrie? I spoke with her earlier today,
:04:26. > :04:29.she's has been speaking with newspapers and radio about this, she
:04:30. > :04:32.says she feels this distressing experience she does not want any
:04:33. > :04:37.body else to go through it, Tammy says that she found out in April
:04:38. > :04:42.this year that she was pregnant, she then miscarried on the 13th of June,
:04:43. > :04:46.at home. She called Queens Hospital in Romford and was originally told
:04:47. > :04:50.to wait at home, later they said to come into the hospital, to come into
:04:51. > :04:53.the maternity ward. Tammy said she did not want to go into the
:04:54. > :04:58.maternity ward, she felt she could not make the journey, up a flight of
:04:59. > :05:01.stairs, along a corridor, and for whatever reason, in her current
:05:02. > :05:06.state, did not want to make the journey, she wanted to go to A
:05:07. > :05:10.She went to Accident and Emergency, when she turned up there, she was
:05:11. > :05:15.asked to wait in line. She called the maternity ward to let them know,
:05:16. > :05:20.she subsequently waited in A for three hours. We have spoken to the
:05:21. > :05:23.hospital as well, who have said that they really felt she should have
:05:24. > :05:27.moved to the maternity ward, should have been treated there, that was
:05:28. > :05:31.the best place for her, they tried to persuade her to move at the time.
:05:32. > :05:36.The other thing to bear in mind, ANC is busy at the best of times, and
:05:37. > :05:41.queens in Romford is known for having a particularly busy ANC. --
:05:42. > :05:48.A This is a hospital that has come under scrutiny in the past. It
:05:49. > :05:53.has come out of special measures because of A In 2013 they were
:05:54. > :05:56.put under special measures, which means the hospital is not performing
:05:57. > :06:00.to the level the inspectors would want, they brought in specialists
:06:01. > :06:04.from outside to train them up. They decided as of March this year that
:06:05. > :06:07.the hospital was in a state where it could continue on its own.
:06:08. > :06:14.Historically people may remember the fact there was concerns over the
:06:15. > :06:17.maternity wards there, several mothers died, it was found that
:06:18. > :06:21.nurses could have done more to save them. Again, they have said those
:06:22. > :06:24.services have turned around and they do not have concerns about them at
:06:25. > :06:28.the moment. We do have a statement from the hospital as well, they have
:06:29. > :06:30.said they are sorry to hear she had poor experiences and they continue
:06:31. > :06:41.to monitor her situation. Lots more to come tonight,
:06:42. > :06:45.including: the five-year-old fined by the Council for serving lemonade
:06:46. > :06:55.to the neighbours, all because she did not have a licence.
:06:56. > :07:00.Waterloo is the country's busiest rail station
:07:01. > :07:03.but around half of it is going to be closed for almost
:07:04. > :07:06.Passengers are being warned to expect major disruption
:07:07. > :07:09.while improvement work is carried out and they've even been
:07:10. > :07:14.Here's our Transport Correspondent Tom Edwards.
:07:15. > :07:24.VOICEOVER: Waterloo deals with 99 million journeys a year.
:07:25. > :07:27.But this August, nearly half of its platforms will be shut.
:07:28. > :07:29.Commuters are being told to if possible change
:07:30. > :07:35.Literally all I'm going to do is take the first train
:07:36. > :07:37.and see what happens, and see how it goes from there.
:07:38. > :07:41.Beyond that, if it means me taking a holiday, I will take a holiday.
:07:42. > :07:44.I can work from home, so we can stay out of the way.
:07:45. > :07:47.I'd rather not, but it will be a nightmare.
:07:48. > :07:50.Some people will have to use it, it's a shambles, really.
:07:51. > :07:52.And the impact will be felt down the line, stations
:07:53. > :07:57.Clapham Junction will be much busier.
:07:58. > :07:58.Upgrades to stations have hit problems previously,
:07:59. > :08:01.Network Rail was heavily criticised after commuters suffered months
:08:02. > :08:08.The mayor says the same thing can't happen here.
:08:09. > :08:10.My message to the government is two things, one, properly
:08:11. > :08:16.supervise these works, I'm afraid there are examples
:08:17. > :08:18.where Network Rail has not provided a good service
:08:19. > :08:21.Two, if it is the case that they overrun, the government
:08:22. > :08:24.must provide speedy compensation to commuters, that is the incentive
:08:25. > :08:26.for proper supervision and the incentive for these works
:08:27. > :08:31.Waterloo is getting longer platforms.
:08:32. > :08:36.So, it will be able to deal with thousands more passengers every
:08:37. > :08:37.rush-hour, and to ease the congestion,
:08:38. > :08:41.the old Eurostar platforms will be used for the first time in years.
:08:42. > :08:49.There's never a good time to carry out such a large-scale project,
:08:50. > :08:52.but we chose August because more people are away on holiday anyway.
:08:53. > :09:01.The mayor has concerns it will not be.
:09:02. > :09:04.We are working really hard and have comprehensive plans in place,
:09:05. > :09:07.one of the most well planned projects that you come across,
:09:08. > :09:09.we are really confident it will be delivered on time.
:09:10. > :09:22.Waterloo is due to be finished by the end of 2018.
:09:23. > :09:25.Passengers at Euston station are facing major disruption tonight
:09:26. > :09:28.after someone was struck and killed by a train at Bletchley. Its
:09:29. > :09:30.affecting some trains in and out of the station. Our reporter, Emma
:09:31. > :09:30.North is at Euston and can tell us more.
:09:31. > :09:36.At the moment ago we heard that there is disruption of the planned
:09:37. > :09:39.kind at Waterloo but here it is unplanned, only a couple of hours
:09:40. > :09:43.since schools broke up in London, inside Houston, very much the
:09:44. > :09:48.feeling people want to get away for their holidays, in addition to the
:09:49. > :09:51.usual hustle and bustle of Euston on a Friday night. Early on this
:09:52. > :09:57.afternoon someone at Bletchley station was struck by a train and
:09:58. > :10:01.died and Network Rail closed all of the lines coming into and out of
:10:02. > :10:04.London, leading to huge delays at Euston, looking at the boards,
:10:05. > :10:10.nothing coming in and nothing coming out. Network sale said a few moments
:10:11. > :10:16.ago often the option is to cancel trains and start again. At about
:10:17. > :10:20.6:10pm, one or two trains were announced, you saw people charging
:10:21. > :10:23.to the platform to get to the first one they could. What should you do
:10:24. > :10:27.if travelling tonight? Come to the station and try your luck or Network
:10:28. > :10:31.Rail are saying, if you have a ticket out of Euston getting out or
:10:32. > :10:35.coming into London, if you go to somewhere like King's Cross St.
:10:36. > :10:40.Bankers, walk up the road, they will be accepting tickets, if you can
:10:41. > :10:44.find a different way to make a journey, please do so. They say the
:10:45. > :10:48.delays to the schedule will apply until 9pm tonight, but it does not
:10:49. > :10:53.mean that everything will be back to normal. In actual fact, you will be
:10:54. > :10:58.experiencing delays right until the end of today's service. Happy
:10:59. > :11:04.holidays(!) -- if you go to somewhere like King's Cross St

:11:52. > :11:55.Five months later her body was found on a golf course in Edinburgh.
:11:56. > :11:58.Today it was confirmed one senior police officer is to face
:11:59. > :12:01.Two other officers will face sanctions.
:12:02. > :12:09.She was a very kind, caring person, kept herself to herself, it was
:12:10. > :12:13.completely out of character for her to leave home and not come home by
:12:14. > :12:17.nine, 10pm, never out later than that, always let her parents know
:12:18. > :12:24.where she was. VOICEOVER: To this day, Saima Ahmed's brother has no
:12:25. > :12:28.idea why his sister disappeared, she was a librarian who cared for her
:12:29. > :12:31.elderly parents, when she did not return home, the family reported her
:12:32. > :12:35.missing the following morning. It was not until months later that her
:12:36. > :12:39.remains were found here, in the grounds of a mansion, by a golf club
:12:40. > :12:45.in Edinburgh, last year. Her brother told me how the Met failed to take
:12:46. > :12:49.her disappearance seriously enough, they even had to find this CCTV
:12:50. > :12:53.image, the last time she was seen alive, by himself, using his own
:12:54. > :12:57.initiative, contact and perseverance. Today the police
:12:58. > :13:00.regulator said that the fact that CCTV and other material was not
:13:01. > :13:05.seized from the outset is reason enough to consider misconduct. It
:13:06. > :13:11.may be the case that because the Met police refused to get it open, that
:13:12. > :13:17.we may never know what happened. How does that leave the family?
:13:18. > :13:20.Devastated. Ever since the body was found, police Scotland has led the
:13:21. > :13:25.investigation and Martin Maclean has been the detective in charge, this
:13:26. > :13:31.was his reaction to an acting chief inspector at the Met facing a
:13:32. > :13:37.meeting, one less than a hearing, it means the officer will not be
:13:38. > :13:41.sacked. Clearly mistakes may have been made but it is not for me to
:13:42. > :13:45.comet upon them. It is easy with hindsight to say that if CCTV had
:13:46. > :13:48.been gathered, that may have helped with the investigation and we may
:13:49. > :13:52.have been in a different place but it was not and I am faced with a set
:13:53. > :13:58.of circumstances I am faced with, and I have two proceed and execute
:13:59. > :14:03.an effective investigation as best I can faced with whatever I am faced
:14:04. > :14:07.with. For her brother, any recrimination is pointless, all that
:14:08. > :14:13.remains important now is finding out how and why his sister died.
:14:14. > :14:18.Still to come: playing video games is a sport in its own right, with
:14:19. > :14:23.millions of people watching top gamers compete online. Tonight we

:14:50. > :14:51.It's not exactly a good outcome for a
:14:52. > :15:04.That's what happened to a five-year-old girl in Mile End,
:15:05. > :15:06.who'd been selling cups of lemonade to festival goers.
:15:07. > :15:08.Her father says his daughter burst into tears
:15:09. > :15:10.when trading enforcement officers told her off not having a licence.
:15:11. > :15:15.Yes this a story that's done incredibly well on social media,
:15:16. > :15:17.and it's all over the news websites today.
:15:18. > :15:19.It's this little girl who was selling 50p cups of lemonade
:15:20. > :15:25.to Love Box festival goers in east London over the weekend.
:15:26. > :15:27.She was approached by council enforcement officers
:15:28. > :15:30.and they gave her dad the ?150 fine for trading without a licence.
:15:31. > :15:32.Well he spoke to BBC Radio London earlier
:15:33. > :15:34.and said he was shocked his daughter's lovely little
:15:35. > :15:43.She was really proud of herself, she was really happy that she had made
:15:44. > :15:46.other people happy, I think. And then, four enforcement officers
:15:47. > :15:50.approached from the other side of the road, I was quite shocked, what
:15:51. > :15:54.are they going to do, they turned on the mobile camera and began reading
:15:55. > :16:01.through a legal script and saying, you have do have a trading permit,
:16:02. > :16:06.etc, etc. My daughter ran in screening and said, daddy, I have
:16:07. > :16:18.done a bad thing. The story has quite the reaction online:
:16:19. > :16:23.I went out earlier and got reaction from people near Oxford Circus.
:16:24. > :16:30.I don't know what to say, I'm speechless, ridiculous. She might
:16:31. > :16:34.end up being one of our leading businesswomen, this is what we want,
:16:35. > :16:40.we should be in courage in it. They did not need to be so harsh to her,
:16:41. > :16:46.she is a little girl. Just having fun, and experience, just trying to
:16:47. > :16:53.learn. That is an entrepreneur's dream ruined, now, what a shame.
:16:54. > :17:02.Now Tower Hamlets Council has since cancelled the fine and apologised.
:17:03. > :17:09.Let's get to the bottom of this, did she do anything wrong. Individual
:17:10. > :17:11.council set their own rules, the government does give guidelines, it
:17:12. > :17:15.says you have to contact the council to find out if you need a license to
:17:16. > :17:18.trade, you then have two apply for it, telling them where and when you
:17:19. > :17:23.want to trade, you might have do pay a fee. Tower Hamlets, the fee is
:17:24. > :17:27.?75. The council can refuse to give you a license but if they grant one,
:17:28. > :17:36.and you don't obey the conditions, you can be fined up to ?1000. In
:17:37. > :17:38.summary, the council were well within their rights to issue that
:17:39. > :17:41.fine but as they've admitted themselves, this was a bit of a
:17:42. > :17:44.common sense fail. Does rather sound like it.
:17:45. > :17:47.Now thousands of cricket fans will be at Lords this
:17:48. > :17:51.and millions more will be tuning in from around the world.
:17:52. > :17:54.England will play India in front of a sold out Lords on Sunday.
:17:55. > :17:57.And a lot of the crowd will be women and young girls too.
:17:58. > :18:06.VOICEOVER: If you want to see just how exciting women's World Cup
:18:07. > :18:10.cricket can be, you only need to look back to England's semifinal
:18:11. > :18:17.against South Africa, a match they won with just two balls to spare.
:18:18. > :18:21.COMMENTATOR: Bold... She has done Ed! Shrub soul has done it for

:18:29. > :18:33.Shrubsole has done it! VOICEOVER: And they will be playing India, who
:18:34. > :18:37.they were beaten by in the opening match. Nice to be able to play them
:18:38. > :18:40.again, we want to be able to put that right, the only team who have
:18:41. > :18:45.lost here, to be able to play out here on Sunday and put that right
:18:46. > :18:50.would be a really citing thing to do. Lord's has hosted a women's
:18:51. > :18:54.World Cup final in the past, in 1993, England beat New Zealand here
:18:55. > :18:58.to lift the trophy in front of an estimated crowd of 4500, this
:18:59. > :19:04.Sunday, as well as millions tune in from around the world, this ground
:19:05. > :19:09.is sold out, there will be over 26,000 cricket fans here, cheering
:19:10. > :19:13.on both teams. Half of all of the tickets sold for the World Cup have
:19:14. > :19:16.been bought by women, over one third have gone to fans under the age of
:19:17. > :19:23.16, they have all been thoroughly entertained. Big scores, records
:19:24. > :19:28.broken, the highest chases, highest runs scored, that is the kind of
:19:29. > :19:32.cricket we want to portray, it shows women's cricket across the globe is
:19:33. > :19:37.in a great state. England's women have a long history of winning
:19:38. > :19:44.trophies in cricket, might they also win a few more fans by lifting
:19:45. > :19:48.another World Cup this Sunday? Hopefully so!
:19:49. > :19:51.Now, if you've got a teenager who spends endless hours
:19:52. > :19:54.in their bedroom playing computer games, fear not, they may one day
:19:55. > :19:59.E-sports is now considered a sport in its own right and some
:20:00. > :20:02.of the very best gamers are here in London competing
:20:03. > :20:04.for hundreds of thousands of pounds in prize money.
:20:05. > :20:06.Chris Slegg joined some of them earlier, ahead of tonight's
:20:07. > :20:15.It may seem strange to you why anybody would want to watch other
:20:16. > :20:18.people playing video games, but believe me, many hundreds will be
:20:19. > :20:23.here tonight, thousands more will be watching online, the teams
:20:24. > :20:27.themselves will be competing on these consoles behind me, and the
:20:28. > :20:32.players will be making quite an entrance out of this tunnel behind
:20:33. > :20:39.me. We can meet one of the game is now, a lot of money at stake, one of
:20:40. > :20:43.those competing, Confs, 24 years old, from Leyton, you will be
:20:44. > :20:48.playing streetfighter five. Doesn't look like the healthiest sports to
:20:49. > :20:54.me(!) you must spend many hours staring at a screen. Yes, and, well,
:20:55. > :20:59.you could say there is a lot of repetitive strain injury, so you are
:21:00. > :21:04.literally in the same position over and over again, repeating the same
:21:05. > :21:10.moves, it can be detrimental to your health, but, it... You should know
:21:11. > :21:14.when to take a break. Good luck tonight, I am sure you will have
:21:15. > :21:24.many people cheering you on, this is a converted cinema, in full, the
:21:25. > :21:30.G-Finity Arena, and it looks fantastic, Martin, the main
:21:31. > :21:33.organiser, I understand football, rugby supporting, but I don't know
:21:34. > :21:39.why you would follow this, how do you entice fancier. Same reasons,
:21:40. > :21:42.the reason people go mad over people like Eric Cantona is because they
:21:43. > :21:45.were fans of the way they played the game, like the guy you have just
:21:46. > :21:49.met, people love him and watching because of the way he plays the
:21:50. > :21:53.game, his personality, the easiest way to wrap your head around it,
:21:54. > :21:57.think of your favourite sport, favourite team, apply the same
:21:58. > :22:00.logic. Thank you very much. May seem quite odd to get your head around
:22:01. > :22:04.for many of us but experts believe that by the turn of the decade,
:22:05. > :22:06.e-sports could well be one of the top five most followed sports in the
:22:07. > :22:15.world. STUDIO: A golfer from Bexleyheath
:22:16. > :22:18.playing at The Open, is in a strong position to become
:22:19. > :22:20.the top amateur. The former Dartford postman begins
:22:21. > :22:24.his second round this afternoon. The 25-year-old who won
:22:25. > :22:26.the European Amateur Championship to qualify needs a good
:22:27. > :22:28.round if he's to continue More than 150 members
:22:29. > :22:41.of his family and friends We are all together, all supporting
:22:42. > :22:44.each other, it is just fantastic, people come out to watch them, they
:22:45. > :22:46.have followed him for years. Family, friends, everyone around, it has
:22:47. > :22:51.been amazing. Since 1993, the state rooms
:22:52. > :22:53.at Buckingham Palace have opened to the public over summer,
:22:54. > :22:56.and it happens again from tomorrow. This year, for the first
:22:57. > :22:58.time there is a display dedicated to Princess Diana,
:22:59. > :23:00.with rarely seen items It's to mark 20 years
:23:01. > :23:03.since her death. Along with them, gifts
:23:04. > :23:05.that The Queen has received on her travels around the world
:23:06. > :23:08.in her 65-year reign. The exhibition reveals some
:23:09. > :23:09."interesting" presents from world heads of states,
:23:10. > :23:22.as Wendy Hurrell reports. VOICEOVER: Millions come from all
:23:23. > :23:29.over the world, and most will stop off here. Chances are, our Queen has
:23:30. > :23:34.visited their country. She has made 250 overseas trips in her reign, and
:23:35. > :23:39.it is custom to give and receive gifts, so there are thousands of
:23:40. > :23:44.them, whittled down to 200 on show this summer. The box was full of
:23:45. > :23:48.Pakistani sweets, I wonder how many Her Majesty eight. I like little
:23:49. > :23:54.gurgle jugs, my dad got me one of those for Christmas. Not quite as
:23:55. > :24:00.grand as those. -- ate. Financial wealth of the country's they come
:24:01. > :24:06.from or shown off by these ornate gifts. Quite at home here under the
:24:07. > :24:11.chandeliers. Some gifts are simple, a prayer shawl blessed by the Dalai
:24:12. > :24:16.Lama. That is from Tibet. Elsewhere, handcrafted pieces from remote parts
:24:17. > :24:20.of the globe, mapping the history of a well travelled Queen. The first
:24:21. > :24:24.objects are from the Coronation and very early tours of the Commonwealth
:24:25. > :24:27.in the 1950s right up to objects presented this year including just
:24:28. > :24:33.last week, the most recent state visit, the 100 she has welcomed to
:24:34. > :24:36.the United Kingdom. Gift-giving, as you will know at Christmas and on
:24:37. > :24:41.birthdays, is not without its Harrell. A famous equation, the
:24:42. > :24:51.president of South Africa presented her with a chess set which had been
:24:52. > :24:56.lubricated, she did not know, by the predecessor, Nelson Mandela. --
:24:57. > :25:00.which had been duplicated. That is not the only problem she may have
:25:01. > :25:03.had, some of them were alive...! One of the disappointments of the
:25:04. > :25:08.exhibition is there is no live animals, she had been given some 20
:25:09. > :25:19.horses, apparently kangaroos, a ball, and even a sloth. -- bull. We
:25:20. > :25:23.will never know what she thinks of any of them, she has had 65 years to
:25:24. > :25:26.practice that polite smile one as when one receives a gift not to
:25:27. > :25:30.one's taste(!) fairly pleasant day out there today,
:25:31. > :25:40.reasonably warm, decent sunshine. This was taken by one of our weather
:25:41. > :25:43.Watchers earlier on in the afternoon, we will see similar skies
:25:44. > :25:48.through the afternoon, sunshine but also cumulus cloud around, and with
:25:49. > :25:52.that, the chance of showers at times, some of them potentially
:25:53. > :25:56.blustery and heavy, but not all the time, certainly some sunshine
:25:57. > :25:59.around. Through this evening, we will see cloud thickening, and
:26:00. > :26:06.overnight, some outbreaks of rain moving from West to East, tending to
:26:07. > :26:14.Peter out, temperatures around 14, 15 degrees. Fresh start to Saturday.
:26:15. > :26:18.Sunny spells, largely dry, by the afternoon, as the cloud increases,
:26:19. > :26:22.chance of seeing some of those showers, even a rumble of thunder
:26:23. > :26:26.possible by the time we get to the afternoon, in the morning, your best
:26:27. > :26:30.bet in getting dry and bright weather, temperatures around 22
:26:31. > :26:34.degrees. Moving through Saturday evening, chance of showers around,
:26:35. > :26:38.they will be hit and miss, not everyone seeing the showers. Low
:26:39. > :26:42.pressure in charge of the weather through the course of the weekend,
:26:43. > :26:45.staying around on into Sunday but drifting further towards the
:26:46. > :26:50.north-east. Sunday will probably see the better day of the weekend,
:26:51. > :26:54.sunny, largely dry the course of the morning, fairly similar to Saturday,
:26:55. > :26:57.again, chance of showers building jury the afternoon, the odd rumble
:26:58. > :27:02.of thunder, perhaps some of the heavier showers. 22 degrees in the
:27:03. > :27:07.sunshine should feel pleasant in between the showers. Looking through
:27:08. > :27:12.into Monday, likely to start off a little bit cloudy and damp, breezy
:27:13. > :27:15.as well, rain clearing away, and so on improving day for Monday,
:27:16. > :27:19.returning to slightly sunnier, warmer conditions, 23 degrees. This
:27:20. > :27:24.is how it is looking the next few days, if you showers, particularly
:27:25. > :27:31.and Sunday afternoon, drying up and warming up a little bit into Monday
:27:32. > :27:34.and Tuesday. A bit mixed, not too bad.
:27:35. > :27:41.Always seems to get better on a Monday! That is all for now, I will
:27:42. > :27:43.be back later on the 10pm news, but from all of the team, please do have
:27:44. > :27:55.a lovely evening. What's she saying?
:27:56. > :28:12.Let's get her on some O2 Join us live, and follow
:28:13. > :28:40.the world's wildest animals... ..across the most
:28:41. > :28:44.challenging of terrains...
