In Look East tonight. Now the United Nations condemns the | :00:05. | :00:12. | |
eviction plans at Dale Farm. Hello and welcome to the programme. | :00:12. | :00:16. | |
Also tonight. Living afloat. The latest Government plan to help | :00:16. | :00:19. | |
solve the housing crisis. Rude and unacceptable behaviour. | :00:19. | :00:23. | |
Why Jim Davidson has been banned from a theatre. | :00:23. | :00:27. | |
And watch the birdy. Sam Torrance is among the big names sinking the | :00:27. | :00:37. | |
:00:37. | :00:44. | ||
First tonight, support from a United Nations committee for people | :00:44. | :00:51. | |
living on the illegal Dale Farm travellers site in Essex. First a | :00:51. | :00:54. | |
reminder of the geography of the site near Basildon. About 500 | :00:54. | :00:57. | |
travellers live there at Crays Hill on a legal site. But another 500 | :00:57. | :01:02. | |
who live in this part of the site don't have planning permission. The | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
plots are on land which is officially green belt. After a | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
planning row going back more than ten years, the council deadline for | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
people to move off the site has now passed. Eviction will follow and it | :01:12. | :01:22. | |
:01:22. | :01:22. | ||
could be weeks or it could be days. Gareth George is there now, Gareth. | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
There was a great cheer here this morning find it news came through | :01:26. | :01:32. | |
of a statement that had been made by a United Nations committee. It | :01:32. | :01:35. | |
was the committee for the elimination of Racial | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
discrimination and after has called for the evictions are to be | :01:37. | :01:42. | |
suspended because it believes it will disproportionately affect the | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
lives of traveller families, particularly of women, children and | :01:46. | :01:51. | |
older people. Meanwhile the entrance to Dale Farm keeps getting | :01:51. | :01:59. | |
bigger. New signs appearing all the time. The media are not usually | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
allowed past that barrier. This is the media reception centre they | :02:03. | :02:10. | |
have set up here at the entrance. But earlier today, we were allowed | :02:10. | :02:19. | |
in and taken to the protest camp that has been set up in Dale Farm. | :02:19. | :02:24. | |
We were taken there for a press conference. With media minders | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
never far away, reporters were escorted him. We were led to the | :02:28. | :02:38. | |
:02:38. | :02:41. | ||
protest camp set up by it -- set up by so-called human rights monitors. | :02:41. | :02:48. | |
Reports that Dale Farm has been hijacked by anarchists were denied. | :02:48. | :02:54. | |
There is great support. It is very stressful here at the moment. When | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
he gets too much, we come down here and have a cup of tea with these | :02:58. | :03:05. | |
people. They are here to give our support. Speaker after speaker said | :03:05. | :03:11. | |
both travellers and activists stood together. We are peaceful. Any | :03:11. | :03:17. | |
group can come down and help us. The press corps was interrupted for | :03:17. | :03:23. | |
an important announcement. News are just in half an our ago that the | :03:23. | :03:26. | |
United Nations Committee for the elimination of Racial | :03:26. | :03:34. | |
discrimination has called for a complete stop to the evictions. | :03:34. | :03:41. | |
Dale Farm's closest neighbour add most outspoken critic said why he | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
thinks the evictions should still go ahead. The judges have made | :03:45. | :03:52. | |
their decisions. It has to be turned back to a greenfield site. | :03:52. | :03:58. | |
Back at Dale Farm, more desperate pleas to the council. We are crying | :03:58. | :04:07. | |
and crying every night. I had cancer, I have diabetes. Where can | :04:07. | :04:14. | |
be go on the road? I am begging you. The travellers post for a | :04:14. | :04:19. | |
photograph under the United Nations flag. | :04:19. | :04:25. | |
Our government responded very quickly to that statement. They | :04:25. | :04:30. | |
said that the British courts have found that the developments at the | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
Dale Farm are in breach of planning law. Basildon council is with them | :04:33. | :04:41. | |
is right to evict travellers from the Dale Farm side. | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
So that's the situation from the travellers' point of view. But of | :04:44. | :04:47. | |
course many local people back the council, including the local MP | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
John Baron who is at Westminster now. What do you think of the | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
United Nations getting involved? I'm they get it wrong and | :04:53. | :04:57. | |
irrelevant. This is not about racial discrimination, this is | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
about the breaking of planning regulations. It is as simple as | :05:01. | :05:07. | |
that. We would not allow the 4000 people waiting on Basildon's has | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
enlisted to break the rules, why should we allow the travellers to | :05:11. | :05:16. | |
break the rules? If that we did, people would ask why is the one law | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
for travellers and another for local residents? When I spoke to | :05:21. | :05:24. | |
the council leader yesterday, he said that he had offered housing to | :05:24. | :05:30. | |
the travellers who needed it. The travellers has said that housing is | :05:30. | :05:35. | |
not up to the standard that anybody would want to move into. Should | :05:35. | :05:39. | |
they be offering better accommodation to the travellers? | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
The council has his obligations up to offer the week, were vulnerable, | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
we done and the old suitable accommodation. I do not see why | :05:48. | :05:53. | |
travellers should be given preferential treatment. All we have | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
ever asked of this community is that those who live in this | :05:56. | :06:04. | |
community abide by this the rules. The law courts have decided that | :06:04. | :06:11. | |
the law has been broken and that this land has to be returned to do | :06:11. | :06:17. | |
greenfield site. What about these people in the camp? It is the usual | :06:17. | :06:24. | |
mixture. If local reports are true and if there are a large number of | :06:24. | :06:28. | |
so-called anarchists tos where, I would expect of the law to take | :06:28. | :06:32. | |
action if they cross the line and if they did anything unlawful. It | :06:32. | :06:36. | |
is very straight forward. You cannot stop people congregating, | :06:36. | :06:43. | |
but you can stop people breaking the law. Is this a more hard-nosed | :06:43. | :06:49. | |
response? We have always believed to that rule of law and lot are for | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
-- floor and order. I have never changed my view on that. Whoever it | :06:53. | :06:59. | |
is, traveller or none traveller, if you break the law, the law should | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
take its course. Equity and fairness when it comes to law and | :07:03. | :07:09. | |
order. A bag you very much for being with us. | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
It's the latest attempt to ease the housing crisis The government wants | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
more people in this region to be able to live on the water. The new | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
homes bonus, where the government rewards councils which allow new | :07:18. | :07:22. | |
housing developments, will now apply to houseboats too. Off the | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
River Story at Harrow sits the Moorhen Marina, home to some three | :07:25. | :07:28. | |
dozen narrowboats, about a third of them residential. Maths teacher Ian | :07:28. | :07:31. | |
McDowell bought the 90 year-old Water Witch for �35,000 earlier | :07:31. | :07:40. | |
this year. Now together with his cats, it is home sweet home. I am | :07:40. | :07:45. | |
here most of the time, I can go up on the river whenever I want. Space | :07:45. | :07:52. | |
is a bit constricted, but you get used to that. I love it. It is my | :07:52. | :07:56. | |
own little home. Self-contained, I have got everything on there that I | :07:56. | :08:03. | |
need and I live life just as normal, but on a boat. New narrowboats can | :08:03. | :08:05. | |
cost from around �60,000 to more than 100,000. Moorings here are | :08:05. | :08:11. | |
around �3,000 a year. The Government accepts that many more | :08:11. | :08:19. | |
marinas will be needed if their aim is to be realised. Throughout our | :08:19. | :08:25. | |
region, there are a lot of canals and possibilities for moorings. We | :08:25. | :08:27. | |
are reminding people and the local authorities that the new homes | :08:27. | :08:35. | |
bonus does pay out for a houseboat. It is a dramatically under-used | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
resource, particularly around major cities. There is a huge housing | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
problem in the country and there are tremendous opportunities to | :08:41. | :08:51. | |
:08:51. | :08:52. | ||
bring the waterways back into use for that purpose. The government | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
hopes its scheme will allow more people to live in areas where they | :08:55. | :08:59. | |
could not afford traditional bricks-and-mortar. The Labour | :08:59. | :09:06. | |
opposition has labelled it a desperate gimmick. | :09:06. | :09:10. | |
Still to come tonight. A full weekend forecast. And the start of | :09:10. | :09:13. | |
the rugby season with a new man pulling the strings at Northampton | :09:13. | :09:23. | |
:09:23. | :09:32. | ||
Saints. An exclusive interview A pilot has died after his light | :09:32. | :09:35. | |
aircraft came down in fields near the A1 in Peterborough. The crash | :09:35. | :09:37. | |
early this afternoon damaged overhead power lines and brought | :09:37. | :09:40. | |
traffic to a standstill. A section of the A1 remains closed in both | :09:40. | :09:43. | |
directions near Water Newton by Sibson Airfield. Police say it's | :09:43. | :09:45. | |
likely to stay closed till midday tomorrow. | :09:45. | :09:48. | |
The comedian Jim Davidson has been banned from performing at the | :09:48. | :09:50. | |
Theatre Royal in Norwich over accusations of rude and | :09:50. | :09:54. | |
unacceptable behaviour. He has even published a letter from the theatre | :09:54. | :10:04. | |
:10:04. | :10:09. | ||
giving their reasons for the ban. Love him or love him or loathe him, | :10:09. | :10:13. | |
Jim Davidson makes no apologies for his behaviour. | :10:14. | :10:19. | |
But he does suggest that Norwich's Theatre Royal has lost his sense of | :10:19. | :10:24. | |
humour. He says, I had been asked by many people why I do not play | :10:24. | :10:30. | |
Norwich, they think I am snubbing the time, that is not the case. | :10:30. | :10:34. | |
There is no denying that Jim Davidson is great Box Office. For | :10:34. | :10:41. | |
three years running, he had to sell out shows here. But management says | :10:41. | :10:45. | |
he was rude it to staff. In a letter to the comedian, the | :10:45. | :10:55. | |
:10:55. | :10:55. | ||
theatre's boss said he was of them said to staff. Would you have them | :10:55. | :11:02. | |
in your office, in your house? did he say that was so offensive? | :11:02. | :11:06. | |
will not repeat it, it was so offensive. If he apologised, would | :11:06. | :11:16. | |
:11:16. | :11:19. | ||
you have Kemback? No. It is a form of censorship. If somebody takes | :11:19. | :11:24. | |
what I say as offensive, there is nothing I can do about it. If he | :11:24. | :11:30. | |
was that would, I think he should stay banned. Should he be allowed | :11:30. | :11:39. | |
to perform? No, not if he has insulted people. As to why he has | :11:39. | :11:46. | |
it reopened at this issue, when your on a nationwide tour, all | :11:46. | :11:53. | |
publicity is good publicity. The Norfolk showground near Norwich | :11:53. | :11:56. | |
has been turned into a music venue for the weekend. 40,000 fans are | :11:57. | :12:00. | |
expected to turn up for two days of artists from the urban music scene. | :12:00. | :12:07. | |
Our entertainment reporter Dawn Gerber is here with the details. | :12:07. | :12:17. | |
:12:17. | :12:17. | ||
Who is performing. On Saturday, Eliza Doolittle, and | :12:17. | :12:27. | |
:12:27. | :12:30. | ||
Professor Green. On Sunday, N-Dubz and Tinie Tempah. Also, Tinchy | :12:30. | :12:39. | |
Stryder. Lots of entertainment. What's happening. Around 4000 fans | :12:39. | :12:44. | |
have decided to camp there. There is entertainment for them as well. | :12:44. | :12:51. | |
It is a brand new festival, there are a lot of around, but the | :12:51. | :12:56. | |
organisers feel this is special. felt that there was a beach in the | :12:56. | :13:02. | |
market for this type of festival to be placed in Norfolk. There are | :13:02. | :13:09. | |
concerts nearby, but those are just one Act and a support. We are | :13:09. | :13:17. | |
bringing up to 60 Act. Are there tickets still available? | :13:17. | :13:23. | |
Camping tickets have sold out, but there are around 2000 at day | :13:23. | :13:31. | |
tickets available for Saturday and Sunday. The roads will be busy in | :13:31. | :13:41. | |
:13:41. | :13:42. | ||
the area, sought stay away unless you are going to the festival. | :13:42. | :13:46. | |
The Ipswich tennis player Elena Baltacha is out of the US Open. She | :13:46. | :13:49. | |
started well, winning the first three games in the opening set. She | :13:49. | :13:51. | |
was beaten by former champion Svetlana Kuznetsova 6-4, 6-3. After | :13:51. | :13:54. | |
the match, Baltacha refused to shake the umpire's hand. She was | :13:54. | :13:55. | |
unimpressed by some of his decisions. | :13:55. | :13:58. | |
The Sizewell B nuclear power station was switched off today for | :13:58. | :14:01. | |
routine maintenance. It happens every 18 months. It will be | :14:01. | :14:03. | |
refuelled and a number of maintenance projects will be | :14:03. | :14:06. | |
carried out at the same time. 1,200 specialist workers will be brought | :14:06. | :14:09. | |
onto the site. Local companies will share contracts worth �3 million. | :14:09. | :14:11. | |
The station generates power for two million homes and employs 500 | :14:11. | :14:13. | |
people. The trust that runs the new | :14:13. | :14:16. | |
hospital in Peterborough has been given the lowest possible rating by | :14:16. | :14:21. | |
an independent regulator. City Hospital opened last December. The | :14:21. | :14:25. | |
trust is forecast to be in debt by �21 million by the end of this | :14:25. | :14:32. | |
financial year. This state of the art hospital has revolutionised | :14:32. | :14:38. | |
health care in Peterborough. But this has come at a cost. With a | :14:38. | :14:41. | |
debt of over �20 million, the Peterborough NHS Trust has been | :14:41. | :14:43. | |
given the lowest possible rating by the monitor, the independent trust | :14:43. | :14:49. | |
regulator. The Monitor rating uses a set of financial indicators which | :14:49. | :14:52. | |
rates us as a one, the worst possible rating. There are another | :14:52. | :14:55. | |
11 trusts which are in very serious financial difficulties and so I | :14:55. | :14:59. | |
think there will be other trusts coming in this direction. The trust | :14:59. | :15:03. | |
has already announced that 300 jobs will need to be lost as part of its | :15:03. | :15:07. | |
plan to save up to �14 million this year. The Trust's financial | :15:07. | :15:10. | |
problems have been made worse because it is yet to sell the city | :15:10. | :15:14. | |
centre site of the former Peterborough District Hospital. It | :15:14. | :15:19. | |
is hoping a deal can be struck soon. We are in negotiations with a | :15:19. | :15:22. | |
number of parties looking at various options to see where we can | :15:22. | :15:26. | |
get best value from the site which is what we have got to do as a | :15:26. | :15:29. | |
public body. If the financial situation at the hospital does not | :15:29. | :15:31. | |
improve, the regulator has the power to intervene in the | :15:31. | :15:34. | |
management of the hospital. The trust insists it is on track to | :15:34. | :15:37. | |
reduce its deficit and, in doing so, patient care will not be | :15:37. | :15:47. | |
:15:47. | :15:56. | ||
You're watching Look East from the BBC. Coming up: some warmth at last. | :15:56. | :16:06. | |
:16:06. | :16:09. | ||
But for how long? Alex will have the weekend forecast. | :16:09. | :16:13. | |
We had just been talking about your response! | :16:13. | :16:16. | |
The new rugby season begins this weekend for both Northampton Saints | :16:16. | :16:18. | |
and Bedford Blues. And the Saints have a new chairman. | :16:18. | :16:24. | |
His name is Barwell. And if that sounds familiar, it's because Leon | :16:24. | :16:27. | |
Barwell is taking over from his father Keith. He's given his first | :16:27. | :16:29. | |
interview to Look East and says he's determined the transition will | :16:29. | :16:32. | |
be a smooth one. At Franklin's Gardens, not even the chairman's | :16:32. | :16:35. | |
parking space is sacrosanct. Keith Barwell had made way for son Leon, | :16:35. | :16:39. | |
for years there heir apparent on the board, now the new kid on the | :16:39. | :16:44. | |
block. Just how easy has it been for his father to let go? These | :16:44. | :16:47. | |
conversations have been going on for a little while. It wasn't a one | :16:47. | :16:52. | |
Sunday lunchtime type conversation. He is ready to hand over now. I | :16:52. | :16:56. | |
think we can take the club forward. He has put us in a brilliant | :16:56. | :17:03. | |
position. And we need to build on that. Your father loved getting | :17:03. | :17:09. | |
stuck in. He loved meddling to an extent. He enjoyed his clashes with | :17:09. | :17:13. | |
the RFU, didn't he? Are you going to continue like that, or have you | :17:13. | :17:16. | |
got a quieter way of going about your business? I am quieter, but | :17:16. | :17:20. | |
just as passionate. It is just about getting the job done at the | :17:20. | :17:23. | |
end of the day. If you are not prepared to fight for what you want, | :17:23. | :17:31. | |
you can be sidelined. That won't change. He has always been prepared | :17:31. | :17:34. | |
to stand up and fight for what he wanted. One of his top priorities | :17:34. | :17:36. | |
has been the redevelopment of Franklin's Gardens, which appears | :17:36. | :17:40. | |
to be a step closer, even if it is still unclear how it will be | :17:40. | :17:43. | |
financed. We will be putting in for planning permission in a matter of | :17:43. | :17:48. | |
months. If we can get the finance in place, we may be able to start | :17:48. | :17:53. | |
that redevelopment at the end of the season. The manager has turned | :17:53. | :18:00. | |
this place around. How was your relationship with him? He wants to | :18:00. | :18:05. | |
do a good job. There is no hidden agendas there. He's very straight | :18:05. | :18:10. | |
speaking as am I. We can sit down over a glass of wine and talk about | :18:10. | :18:16. | |
various different issues. We are not far away from winning the | :18:16. | :18:19. | |
biggest competition in the environment that we play in and the | :18:19. | :18:28. | |
aspiration is always to go a step further and win. | :18:28. | :18:30. | |
And Northampton play Gloucester at Franklin's Gardens on Sunday, | :18:30. | :18:33. | |
whilst in the Championship Bedford Blues start their campaign away at | :18:33. | :18:37. | |
Nottingham. Last year, they made the semi-final play-offs and are | :18:37. | :18:40. | |
confident that come the end of the season, they'll be pushing for | :18:40. | :18:50. | |
:18:50. | :18:56. | ||
promotion. It is important to get alter a good start, a winning start. | :18:56. | :19:05. | |
We want to make an assault on the play-offs. Our sports reporter is | :19:05. | :19:14. | |
very happy today. It is one of the great events. | :19:14. | :19:17. | |
The seniors might all be over 50, but they haven't lost their touch. | :19:17. | :19:21. | |
Today the likes of Sam Torrance, Ian Woosnam and Mark James have all | :19:21. | :19:24. | |
been in the field, and faring pretty well. Tom Williams has spent | :19:24. | :19:34. | |
:19:34. | :19:35. | ||
What an opening day we have had. It is quite turning down now. All 73 | :19:35. | :19:40. | |
players have completed their opening round and the scoring has | :19:40. | :19:45. | |
been fantastic. A third of the field under par. Hardly surprising | :19:45. | :19:49. | |
given at the weather we have enjoyed it today. Perfect | :19:49. | :19:56. | |
conditions for players and spectators. Barry Lane and Sam | :19:56. | :20:00. | |
Torrance are leading the way. I caught up with some after his round | :20:00. | :20:04. | |
and discovered his good start was against the odds. I could not get | :20:04. | :20:10. | |
up the stairs last night, I was in a struggling. But I strapped it up, | :20:10. | :20:20. | |
had a bit of Visio. The problem with a saw the is it your tentative. | :20:20. | :20:26. | |
But it has clearly helped to. He did not get off to the best start, | :20:26. | :20:34. | |
but caught fire as you read through. Yes, I must about four, they picked | :20:34. | :20:44. | |
:20:44. | :20:45. | ||
up from there. Very nice. Very pleased. What is it that keeps you | :20:45. | :20:50. | |
coming back and competing at this level? You have one in most things. | :20:50. | :20:55. | |
It is amazing. This is my 40th year on tour, and I was honestly looking | :20:55. | :21:01. | |
forward to this event as to my first event in 1971. It is a great | :21:01. | :21:08. | |
game, I love the challenge. I will never master it, or perfect it. | :21:08. | :21:16. | |
Very well played. Best of luck for the next few days. Thank you. | :21:16. | :21:22. | |
is one of Ryder Cup captain, a former Ryder Cup captain. Ian that | :21:22. | :21:31. | |
wisdom and Mark James shot 70 today. -- Ian Woosnam. I played pretty | :21:31. | :21:37. | |
good. I left a few on the greens and really. That was the first time | :21:37. | :21:45. | |
on at the short putter. I left a few short on the back nine. How did | :21:45. | :21:53. | |
you find the course? This is a third or 4th year that and a played | :21:53. | :21:56. | |
in the seniors and this is the best I have seen it. They have worked | :21:56. | :22:06. | |
:22:06. | :22:06. | ||
very hard on it. The greens are a good, the fair wares are perfect. | :22:06. | :22:11. | |
If you start playing badly, it will bounce back. If you play well, it | :22:11. | :22:18. | |
is not too bad. If you play badly, you will get punished. Perhaps Ian | :22:19. | :22:23. | |
was some was inspired by Stuart after they played here. In football, | :22:23. | :22:29. | |
a break for the Premiership and the Championship will this weekend. But | :22:29. | :22:35. | |
there are games in Vicks 1 and 2. MK Dons are still top of the pile | :22:35. | :22:43. | |
in League One. Goals have not been part to come by -- hard to come by, | :22:43. | :22:53. | |
:22:53. | :22:56. | ||
apart from from this penalty spot. Carlisle trouble to Scunthorpe. | :22:56. | :23:01. | |
Stevenage to take on Rochdale. There have been 11 goals scored in | :23:01. | :23:11. | |
:23:11. | :23:11. | ||
the last two league games at home. In League Two, soured -- Southend | :23:11. | :23:21. | |
he... I enjoyed my time as Southend. I had a good connection with | :23:21. | :23:25. | |
players and management. They will go there in confident mood after | :23:25. | :23:35. | |
:23:35. | :23:39. | ||
And you can for your team this weekend on your local BBC Radio | :23:39. | :23:45. | |
station. Another two days to go at this senior masters. Hopefully, the | :23:46. | :23:52. | |
weather is set fair. Sam Torrance and Barry Lane at Reading on day | :23:52. | :23:57. | |
one. The action is sure to hot up over the weekend. | :23:57. | :24:04. | |
Thank you very much indeed. Back now to the pilot who has died after | :24:04. | :24:07. | |
his light aircraft came down in fields near the A1 in | :24:07. | :24:10. | |
Cambridgeshire closing the A1. Our reporter Jozef Hall is there now. | :24:10. | :24:12. | |
Jozef, what can you see from where you are? | :24:12. | :24:15. | |
From where I am now, I cannot see very much at all. Earlier, I | :24:15. | :24:21. | |
managed to get within yards of a light aircraft. The wreckage was | :24:21. | :24:26. | |
lying upside-down in a field just yards from the road. I could see | :24:26. | :24:30. | |
from the wreckage of the deceased pilot, but we have had no | :24:30. | :24:35. | |
confirmation of identity. We know that the plane hit the power cables | :24:35. | :24:40. | |
directly above the road. Those cables are no longer live, but they | :24:40. | :24:45. | |
are severely damaged. National Grid is say they cannot work on the | :24:45. | :24:48. | |
cables in the dark so they will not be able to make them safe until | :24:48. | :24:52. | |
tomorrow morning. The police say that as a consequence, the road | :24:52. | :24:55. | |
will not be open until at least midday tomorrow. | :24:55. | :25:01. | |
Thank you very much. We saw some sun today, will it | :25:01. | :25:09. | |
We saw some sun today, will it Actually, no. Another fine day | :25:09. | :25:19. | |
:25:19. | :25:19. | ||
expected for tomorrow. It has been a very warm humid day. We have got | :25:19. | :25:29. | |
:25:29. | :25:33. | ||
some pictures for you taken in long Barton. It has been warm and humid. | :25:33. | :25:36. | |
It is going to stay like that until tomorrow with temperatures climbing | :25:36. | :25:39. | |
to 26 Celsius at their highest, they could even get even higher. | :25:39. | :25:42. | |
Let's take a look at the top temperatures in the region today. | :25:42. | :25:45. | |
Ranging from 21-26 Celsius. At the moment, we have got high pressure | :25:45. | :25:48. | |
in control of things. But we have a weather system on the way which | :25:48. | :25:52. | |
will change the weather on Sunday. For this evening, a fine end to the | :25:52. | :25:55. | |
day with long spells of evening sunshine. And fairly humid as well. | :25:55. | :25:58. | |
It got so warm today. We might see the odd mist patch forming, but | :25:58. | :26:03. | |
fairly clear skies over night generally. These are our low | :26:03. | :26:08. | |
expected temperatures, perhaps of 13 Celsius at the lowest. Tomorrow, | :26:08. | :26:12. | |
here is the weather system. It is very slow-moving. It is this cold | :26:12. | :26:16. | |
front being pushed towards us. But it should not spoil things for | :26:16. | :26:22. | |
tomorrow, we are expecting a really find, warm day. The sunshine could | :26:22. | :26:30. | |
turn hazy at times. Temperatures are expected to get as high as 26 | :26:30. | :26:40. | |
:26:40. | :26:41. | ||
Celsius, possibly higher in some locations. Really warm. The wind | :26:41. | :26:50. | |
speed may increase through the afternoon. The west of the region | :26:50. | :26:53. | |
might get a little bit more cloud developing towards the end of the | :26:53. | :26:59. | |
day. A low-pressure weather system is bringing wet weather with that. | :26:59. | :27:05. | |
This is how the outlook looks, fairly changeable after Sunday. | :27:05. | :27:07. | |
Potentially getting up to 27 degrees tomorrow, then we are in | :27:07. | :27:13. | |
for a fairly cloudy day with outbreaks of showery rain. It does | :27:13. | :27:16. | |
not look like it will get into the East until later in the day. Cooler | :27:16. | :27:26. |
