:00:13. > :00:15.Air passengers were most likely to have been delayed
:00:16. > :00:19.if they flew from Gatwick Airport or with easyJet.
:00:20. > :00:22.Data from the Civil Aviation Authority for the last two summers

:00:30. > :00:32.Gatwick and easyJet say many of the delays
:00:33. > :00:37.were beyond their control, as Emma Simpson reports.
:00:38. > :00:42.Up, up and away, but how often do they take off on time?
:00:43. > :00:47.The BBC has been looking at the data.

:00:57. > :01:00.Gatwick has the single busiest runway in the world,
:01:01. > :01:04.with planes often taking off and landing every minute.
:01:05. > :01:08.Things are going smoothly here today, but if their schedule slips
:01:09. > :01:16.We absolutely recognise the inconvenience caused
:01:17. > :01:20.But most of our flights are ready to go, but simply cannot depart.
:01:21. > :01:23.We are up against the challenge of congested airspace over our head,
:01:24. > :01:26.bad weather across the European region, and European

:01:49. > :01:50.Airports like Gatwick need to think about building
:01:51. > :01:56.I think airlines like easyJet should have perhaps more resources
:01:57. > :02:01.for the schedule they are hoping to deliver, but ultimately it's us
:02:02. > :02:04.passengers say we want loads of cheap flights, please.
:02:05. > :02:10.The government reckons 30 minute delays could be the norm,

:03:45. > :03:47.party venue has not been Land - in where else but Waterloo -
:03:48. > :03:51.has been earmarked by a member of the band
:03:52. > :03:56.for a new restaurant and club. But campaigners say social housing
:03:57. > :03:59.should be built there instead. # I've been cheated by you since
:04:00. > :04:07.I don't know when #. They were once one of the most

:04:14. > :04:16.following the opening He wants to build a Mamma Mia
:04:17. > :04:24.inspired party venue where Abba fans But his plans for a 500-seater
:04:25. > :04:30.venue, in an area near the South Bank, haven't been
:04:31. > :04:36.well received by these locals. Noise levels are going
:04:37. > :04:39.to go through the roof. People dropping off,
:04:40. > :04:41.picking up late at night. It's going to be really horrendous
:04:42. > :04:44.for the local residents. And a wholly unacceptable use
:04:45. > :04:48.of the space that's been It's kind of scary thinking that I'm
:04:49. > :04:53.going to have to deal with five years of Abba music bursting
:04:54. > :04:57.into my ears. The proposed site is on derelict
:04:58. > :05:00.land next to a community The organisation who own it
:05:01. > :05:05.want to rent it out for five years We are working with the team behind
:05:06. > :05:16.it to arrange to have availability of it during the day when it's not
:05:17. > :05:20.open to the public. We're hoping young people will have
:05:21. > :05:23.access into it for training on light and sound equipment,
:05:24. > :05:28.so we feel there is a benefit. Well, Bjorn from Abba
:05:29. > :05:32.and the Mamma Mia company has been His PR tell me he was impressed
:05:33. > :05:37.by its location to the South Bank And these Abba lovers,
:05:38. > :05:44.in town for a fan club summer party, believe the Swedish company will be
:05:45. > :05:48.good for London. Having been to Mamma Mia The Party
:05:49. > :05:51.in Stockholm, I hope it's that. It will open up tourism and job
:05:52. > :05:54.opportunities for local residents It certainly has done
:05:55. > :06:00.so in Sweden, where Mamma Mia # Money, money, money...#
:06:01. > :06:06.The developers say the money paid to rent the land will be ploughed
:06:07. > :06:09.back into the local community, but for these residents,
:06:10. > :06:16.that comes at too high a price. That's it for now from me, but let's
:06:17. > :06:32.find out what the weather's After the week of weather we've had,
:06:33. > :06:35.don't we deserve a mainly fine weekend? Well, that's exactly what
:06:36. > :06:39.we're going to get. Today was a decent day. There was some sunshine
:06:40. > :06:42.around. For the weekend it will be largely dry with some spells of
:06:43. > :06:45.sunshine. At the moment there's a lot of cloud around and some
:06:46. > :06:49.outbreaks of rain. The rain light and patchy for the most part. It
:06:50. > :06:55.will turn misty and murky for some of the hills to the south and west.
:06:56. > :06:57.Temperatures dropping to 15-16. A bit of a slow start to Saturday.
:06:58. > :07:04.Grey skies and sunspot soft drizzle if you are out and about early on.
:07:05. > :07:06.The cloud should break up a bit we will see spells of sunshine.
:07:07. > :07:12.12-macro showers can't be ruled out but you will be lucky to catch one.
:07:13. > :07:16.The majority will stay dry. 21-22d will not feel too bad, if you get
:07:17. > :07:20.yourself into brightness. It will stay fine on Saturday night and
:07:21. > :07:25.Sunday is looking like a decent day. Some spells of sunshine, and after a
:07:26. > :07:29.fairly cool start, temperatures up to 22 degrees. I'll leave you with
:07:30. > :07:30.the outlook for the next few days. A decent weekend, more unsubtle than
:07:31. > :07:32.to the the outlook for the next few days. A
:07:33. > :07:38.decent weekend, more unsubtle than to the start of next week. Now Helen
:07:39. > :07:43.Willetts with the National forecast. Good evening. Despite the unsettled
:07:44. > :07:46.and often quite wet weather for some of us this week it looks like we
:07:47. > :07:49.have a window of fairly decent weather and it coincides with the
:07:50. > :07:52.weekend, but it's not plain sailing. We have this amalgamation of weather
:07:53. > :07:56.fronts across the country, so it means there's a lot of cloud, if you
:07:57. > :07:59.are hoping to view the meteor shower tonight, but it looks clearer
:08:00. > :08:04.tomorrow night. Best tonight in the north and west but even here there
:08:05. > :08:05.will be showers around on this weather front here, with splashes
