:00:06. > :00:09.Tensions is high at Dale Farm as eviction looms at the illegal

:00:09. > :00:13.travellers site in Essex. The community secretary says the

:00:14. > :00:20.Government is behind the decision to send in the bailiffs.

:00:20. > :00:25.Everyone is equal before the law. Therefore these caravans, these

:00:25. > :00:28.semi permanent dwellings have to go. We have been to the town in Ireland

:00:28. > :00:32.where connections with Dale Farm run deep.

:00:32. > :00:37.They come back here and party for four or five weeks at Christmas and

:00:37. > :00:42.treat the town with little respect and that creates a divide between

:00:42. > :00:46.the settled and traveller community. The husband who killed his wife

:00:46. > :00:56.after a row over money is cleared of murder.

:00:56. > :01:03.

:01:03. > :01:06.It might have been a fine day, but The travellers at Dale Farm in

:01:06. > :01:11.Essex finally ran out of options today as the courts threw out an

:01:11. > :01:17.eleventh hour plea for a delay. There is now no doubt about it. The

:01:17. > :01:20.bailiffs will move on to the site on Monday morning. An Appeal Court

:01:20. > :01:23.judge rejected an application for the eviction process to be delayed

:01:23. > :01:25.on the grounds that one traveller is too ill to be moved. Elsewhere

:01:25. > :01:31.today, the Government placed itself firmly behind Basildon Council,

:01:32. > :01:35.paving the way for the re- possession of the site. Let's get

:01:35. > :01:39.the very latest from Dale Farm now and our reporter Alex Dunlop. Well,

:01:39. > :01:42.I have been coming down to Dale Farm pretty much every day for the

:01:42. > :01:47.last week. Until today, it has been laid back, but today we have

:01:47. > :01:51.noticed that tensions have wracked up a bit. Nerves up there in Dale

:01:51. > :01:55.Farm are beginning to get frayed. The police have kept a low profile.

:01:55. > :01:58.We have noticed Community Support Officers coming up and down here

:01:58. > :02:03.several times a day to keep an eye on things. This afternoon we have

:02:03. > :02:08.noticed a steady trickle, not a rush, a steady trickle of activists

:02:08. > :02:11.heading to Dale Farm. Look at this. For the last three days, the

:02:12. > :02:17.council had an army of security personnel and contractors building

:02:17. > :02:27.up for the eviction of the UK's largest travellers site.

:02:27. > :02:27.

:02:27. > :02:32.After ten years at Dale Farm Nelly Sheridan is leaving home.

:02:32. > :02:36.caravan is staying and we are going to wait until the end. We are going

:02:36. > :02:42.to wait. REPORTER: So you will stay? Yes. We

:02:42. > :02:46.are willing to stay. Yards away, a surreal position, as

:02:46. > :02:50.activists keep a close eye on the council's preparation for the

:02:50. > :02:56.eviction, travellers children return home from possibly their

:02:57. > :03:01.last day at the local primary. A judge rejected a bid to halt

:03:01. > :03:06.clearance of the site. This is a crazy, crazy situation. A

:03:06. > :03:13.crazy waste of taxpayers money. These people if they think they can

:03:13. > :03:16.get away, the country will not allow this to happen. It won't

:03:16. > :03:19.happen this week, but it will be a few years down the before this

:03:19. > :03:24.Government is prosecuted for what is happening.

:03:24. > :03:27.A man has weighed in on their side. Did the travellers know they were

:03:27. > :03:31.buying it without planning permission? Yeah.

:03:32. > :03:36.They knew they didn't have planning permission? We would use it as a

:03:36. > :03:42.scrapyard. We didn't think we needed planning

:03:42. > :03:47.permission for brown belt. The council gave this man permission to

:03:47. > :03:51.store greased up and scrapped cars, you wouldn't put cars like that on

:03:51. > :03:55.greenbelt. This is the site four miles away.

:03:55. > :03:59.12 months ago, I reported on the eviction of a handful of travellers

:03:59. > :04:04.from here. At the time the council insisted this would be returned to

:04:04. > :04:10.a green field site. A year on, a lot of the rubbish is still here

:04:10. > :04:15.and the site has not returned back to green field, more of a scrub

:04:15. > :04:18.land really. Local people I spoke to said their quality of life has

:04:18. > :04:26.improved a lot since the travellers left.

:04:26. > :04:32.A bailiff firm which evicts three to four travelling groups every few

:04:32. > :04:35.months. In a fixed site like this, you come up against a lot of

:04:36. > :04:39.problems. There is a lot of families and then you you get

:04:39. > :04:42.peacekeepers who have turned up and that's what is going to cause the

:04:42. > :04:45.trouble on Monday. REPORTER: Do you think? Absolutely.

:04:45. > :04:49.These people do this. It is what they do for a living. It is well

:04:49. > :04:53.planned. They know how to cause disruption and that's what they are

:04:53. > :04:58.going to do. While many at nearby Dale Farm are

:04:58. > :05:04.staying, some are resigned to a life in lay-bies.

:05:04. > :05:09.Earlier I spoke to Eric I canles and he said the -- Pickles and he

:05:09. > :05:13.said the issue is simple, the travellers have broken the law and

:05:13. > :05:18.they must move on. Lots of people looked at this and

:05:18. > :05:24.decided that the rule of law, that everyone is equal before the law

:05:24. > :05:29.and therefore, these caravans, these semi permanent dwellings is a

:05:29. > :05:33.to go. United Nations and the commission

:05:33. > :05:39.for racial equality weighed in on this. Shouldn't Human Rights

:05:39. > :05:42.transcend local planning laws. The planning laws stand and of

:05:42. > :05:46.courses, Basildon Council will be looking to offer alternative

:05:46. > :05:51.accommodation to the people. It is not culturally appropriate as

:05:51. > :05:55.the UN would call it? I am interested to to hear what the UN

:05:55. > :06:03.have to say and their contributions are welcome, but I think in Britain,

:06:03. > :06:06.that has a very consistent record on Human Rights, I think that we

:06:06. > :06:12.should really concentrate on treating everybody equally before

:06:12. > :06:17.the law. Local councils can't sort this out

:06:17. > :06:20.on their own, shouldn't the Government step in? There is an

:06:20. > :06:25.obligation on local authorities to provide pitches and places for

:06:25. > :06:29.travellers and as you know, we have a thing called a new homes bonus,

:06:29. > :06:37.we paid an additional sum to local councils if they provide it and it

:06:37. > :06:40.should be part of their normal Just in the last five seconds, we

:06:40. > :06:43.saw a caravan being taken out of the site. It doesn't mean that the

:06:43. > :06:49.travellers are leaving. Well, they may have failed in the High Court

:06:49. > :06:53.today, but even now, they are holding on to the last gasp attempt

:06:53. > :06:58.to succeed legally. They will take their fight to the High Court,

:06:58. > :07:01.court number 62 at 11.30am on Monday morning and they have served

:07:01. > :07:11.today emergency papers at the court of Human Rights in Strasbourg and

:07:11. > :07:14.that will come to fruition next Ten years ago, part of the Dale

:07:14. > :07:16.Farm complex was a scrap yard. Since then it has been transformed

:07:16. > :07:26.by the illegal development. Perhaps the best way to illustrate the

:07:26. > :07:29.changes is from the air. Sandwiched between the A127 and the village of

:07:29. > :07:33.Crays Hill from the north the two halfs of Dale Farm are clear. The

:07:33. > :07:38.eastern, illegal section is dotted with caravans and mobile homes,

:07:38. > :07:42.some with brick footings. Contrast that with the legal half, where

:07:42. > :07:46.planning permission was granted in the 70s. The homes appear more

:07:46. > :07:51.permanent. This was the site 15 years ago on the right, the

:07:51. > :07:54.scrapyard sold to a travelling family and today, divided into 52

:07:54. > :07:58.plots, all owned by by travellers, all without planning permission. In

:07:58. > :08:02.the last few days, the defences have been strengthened from the

:08:02. > :08:06.main gate, patrolled by protesters to the two watch towers which give

:08:06. > :08:12.travellers a view of the open fields to the east. A few pictures

:08:12. > :08:16.a-- pitches away, Camp Constant where activist have based

:08:16. > :08:20.themselves. The only buildings safe from the bailiffs will be there,

:08:20. > :08:24.the original Dale Farm house built before the travellers first moved

:08:24. > :08:30.in. Just about all the travellers at Dale Farm are Irish and many

:08:30. > :08:38.hail from a town in county limerick called Rathkeale. Some of the Dale

:08:38. > :08:40.Farm travellers own homes there. Some of the Dale Farm travellers

:08:40. > :08:43.own homes there. Sally Chidzoy has been to Rathkeale which is

:08:43. > :08:46.described by some as the "spiritual home" of many of the travellers.

:08:46. > :08:49.Visit Rathkeale and you see a ghost town, a place that is slowly dying.

:08:49. > :08:53.It is the first time in Ireland to be largely owned by travellers who

:08:54. > :09:01.have said to bought up over 80% of the property here. Most of it,

:09:01. > :09:06.reportedly paid for in cash. Seamus Hogan is a non traveller and he

:09:06. > :09:11.worries about what is going on in the town.

:09:11. > :09:16.The element that come back at Christmas and they use Rathkeale as

:09:16. > :09:19.their Blackpool. They come back and party for four or five weeks at

:09:19. > :09:23.Christmas time and treat the town with little respect and that

:09:23. > :09:27.creates a divide between the settled and traveller community.

:09:27. > :09:31.Links between Rathkeale and Dale Farm in Essex run deep. Many

:09:31. > :09:36.travellers who move between the two communities regard Rathkeale as

:09:36. > :09:40.their true home. When John and Kathleen McCarthy died at Dale Farm

:09:40. > :09:45.six years ago, their funeral was held in Rathkeale. They were buried

:09:45. > :09:49.here. Danny O'Brien is one of Kath keel's poorest travellers. He

:09:49. > :09:54.settled here after living in the Midlands for 30 years. In ill

:09:55. > :10:00.health he lives near the Spanish- style homes owned by the wealthy

:10:00. > :10:04.travellers. It is very much a travellers town. Do you think one

:10:04. > :10:11.day they will own it? They already own it.

:10:11. > :10:14.This is the BallyWilliam estate in Rathkeale. Every house is empty.

:10:14. > :10:19.Every window and door is barricade with metal sheeting and mesh. The

:10:19. > :10:22.houses are owned by travellers who have all gone travelling, but what

:10:22. > :10:25.riles many people living here is the contempt shown by some for

:10:25. > :10:30.planning laws and regulations. The council can't trace the owners.

:10:30. > :10:38.This house says it all. Probably the only house in Europe built on

:10:38. > :10:41.top of a telecommunications pole. You're flabbergasted.

:10:41. > :10:47.Local people are angry. They have set up their planning committee to

:10:47. > :10:51.monitor what is going on. It is as if Rathkeale is a forgotten town.

:10:51. > :10:56.It is unbelievable to think that the amount of unauthorised

:10:56. > :11:01.development could actually happen in civilised society without any

:11:01. > :11:05.actions being taken, money talks. It is the people that are breaking

:11:05. > :11:10.the law are the ones with the money. The wealthy travellers don't talk

:11:10. > :11:14.to the media, theirs is a closed and secret world. They appear to do

:11:14. > :11:18.what they want in the town. The disputes spill over into the local

:11:18. > :11:24.cemetery. People had run ins with the council over the size of their

:11:24. > :11:34.gravestones. Each costing tens of thousands of euros is said to be

:11:34. > :11:34.

:11:34. > :11:37.carved in matialg in in in marble. There is a sense of fear from the

:11:37. > :11:41.settled community that they are being forced out of town. There is

:11:41. > :11:50.a potential for an explosive conflict between the two

:11:50. > :11:53.Over the weekend, you can keep up- to-date with events at Dale Farm on

:11:53. > :11:55.BBC Essex. We'll have special coverage of the eviction

:11:55. > :11:59.proceedings here on Look East on Monday.

:11:59. > :12:03.Later on Look East we look ahead to the weekend sport and the first of

:12:03. > :12:06.the big party political conferences. On the eve of London Fashion Week,

:12:06. > :12:09.we meet the knitwear designer from Suffolk who is dressing some of our

:12:09. > :12:13.best known celebrities. And after some fine weather this

:12:13. > :12:23.week, rain sweeps towards us for the weekend. The full forecast

:12:23. > :12:25.

:12:25. > :12:28.coming up after a closer look at A former manager with the Crown

:12:28. > :12:31.Prosecution Service, who killed his wife in a row over debts, has been

:12:31. > :12:36.cleared of murder. A jury at Chelmsford was told the couple from

:12:36. > :12:44.Norfolk spent over �10,000 on a TV shopping channel. The husband had

:12:44. > :12:47.admitted manslaughter. It was at this house that Warren Gorring

:12:47. > :12:50.admitted killing his wife. Disputed what he intended to did and claimed

:12:50. > :12:56.he had no memory of what happened. A jury cleared him of murder.

:12:56. > :13:00.I saw him a few times when I was walking past, cutting his lawn

:13:00. > :13:04.usually, apart from that never met her. The court heard the couple

:13:04. > :13:08.were almost reclusive, they rented their house. Their accounts were

:13:08. > :13:15.overdrawn. They spent over �10,000 on a television shopping channel,

:13:15. > :13:20.bailiffs were due to evict them. Maeve Pierce knew the couple. They

:13:20. > :13:25.rented their house from Metfield Estates owing them thousands of

:13:25. > :13:29.pounds. He was a larger than life gentleman. If only he had come to

:13:29. > :13:35.us and explained that he had got problems, you know, we wouldn't

:13:35. > :13:40.have let it get as far as it got, but unfortunately I think he buried

:13:40. > :13:42.his head in the sand hoping that it would go away and come right in the

:13:42. > :13:47.end. The Crown Prosecution Service

:13:47. > :13:52.brought the trial on one of its former managers, Warren Gorring

:13:53. > :13:58.worked for them for 26 years. Essex County Court dealt with the case as

:13:58. > :14:03.so many people knew him. The CPS says it is a sad case in which a

:14:03. > :14:13.couple's compulsion to buy things resulted in them losing their home

:14:13. > :14:18.and Mrs Gorring losing her life and Mr Gorring faces risking losing his

:14:18. > :14:21.The owner of Stansted Airport, BAA, has launched a fresh appeal against

:14:21. > :14:24.a ruling that it has to sell the airport. In 2009, the Competition

:14:24. > :14:30.Commission ordered the company to sell Stansted, but BAA claims that

:14:30. > :14:33.there have been material changes More than 1,000 Elvis Presley fans

:14:33. > :14:36.from all Britain are in Great Yarmouth this week for the annual

:14:36. > :14:39.Elvis Festival. The star attraction at this year's festival is Dick

:15:06. > :15:11.the fans here still love him. day, we'll have two bands a day. We

:15:11. > :15:14.don't have Elvis impersonators because the genuine fans really

:15:14. > :15:22.don't like what I call the jumpsuit brigade.

:15:22. > :15:30.There is Elvis merchandise, this is a police badge given to Elvis.

:15:30. > :15:38.There is a best dresd caravan -- dressed caravan competition won by

:15:38. > :15:42.this Leicestershire family with their Jailhouse Rock theme. Maureen

:15:42. > :15:48.Bates is a die hard fan, she has been to Grace land eight times and

:15:48. > :15:58.always attends the festival. Have you got a favourite? The first one

:15:58. > :15:59.

:15:59. > :16:05.I bought which was Don't Be Cruel. The star attraction this year, Dick

:16:05. > :16:10.Grob head of security for Elvis. We were very close friends. Elvis

:16:10. > :16:14.heard me sing once and and made me promise not to sing on stage. I

:16:14. > :16:21.told him I wouldn't if he wouldn't screw with security and he never

:16:21. > :16:26.did. Dick Grob entertained the fans for

:16:26. > :16:34.over an hour. They were so pleased with year's event they have already

:16:34. > :16:37.There's an exciting day in store in Suffolk and Norfolk tomorrow as the

:16:37. > :16:43.Tour of Britain races into our region. With more on that, and the

:16:43. > :16:47.Yes the penultimate stage of the Tour of Britain starts in Bury St

:16:47. > :16:49.Edmunds at 10.15am. From Angel Hill, the cyclists will make their way to

:16:49. > :16:53.Hadleigh, then Ipswich. From there they head into Norfolk before

:16:53. > :16:58.finishing up at Sandringham at around 3pm. Thousands are expected

:16:58. > :17:01.to line the streets. To the football fixtures starting

:17:01. > :17:03.with our Essex clubs. In League One, Colchester who've drawn their last

:17:03. > :17:06.three head to Sheffield United. In League Two, Southend who've

:17:06. > :17:09.recently had their own financial problems, host Plymouth who are

:17:09. > :17:12.still in administration and struggling to pay their players.

:17:12. > :17:16.Ipswich aren't playing until Monday. They're at home to Coventry in the

:17:16. > :17:24.Championship. Town lost 2-0 at Blackpool last week. A fifth defeat

:17:24. > :17:28.in six outings. Certainly not the start fans were expecting. I think

:17:28. > :17:31.every game is a big match in this league whether you started well or

:17:31. > :17:35.started poorly. There is one million miles to go in this league

:17:35. > :17:38.and we realised that our results haven't been the way we would have

:17:38. > :17:48.wanted them, but we're not preparing for this game different

:17:48. > :17:54.to any other. Next up Bolton away, they have had

:17:54. > :17:57.an an indifferent start. A number of former Canaries are playing a

:17:57. > :18:07.charity match. I went to see them to chat about both big games this

:18:07. > :18:11.

:18:11. > :18:16.They have dazzled fans before, and they are about to take centre stage

:18:16. > :18:21.again as Dale's legends take on a team of soap stars for charity.

:18:21. > :18:23.They are unbeaten, raising money for the Alzheimer's Society and the

:18:23. > :18:27.Prince's Trust, today a gentle stroll before the drama begins on

:18:27. > :18:37.Sunday! We have got some fit lads. It is a

:18:37. > :18:42.

:18:42. > :18:44.mixture of Norwich and Ipswich players and the likes of Hucks. I'm

:18:44. > :18:49.sure he will be playing for us on the day.

:18:49. > :18:56.They have been keeping a close eye on Norwich and watched on as

:18:56. > :18:59.another error costs them dear against West Brom. The Canaries are

:19:00. > :19:03.waiting for lift-off in the Premier League.

:19:03. > :19:08.The goals haven't come and that will be the biggest problem. The

:19:08. > :19:12.teams who have gone up maybe will struggle for goals. Most teams have

:19:12. > :19:16.good strikers, even in an average team they have people who can cause

:19:16. > :19:18.problems. That is going to be a big problem this season because every

:19:18. > :19:23.team we face has world-class strikers.

:19:23. > :19:29.Penalties, conceding them, has become an unhappy habit, awarded

:19:29. > :19:33.against them in each of their four opening games. The boss backed

:19:33. > :19:36.calls for video technology to help referees.

:19:36. > :19:40.The referee decisions have been going against us. There is no way

:19:40. > :19:43.that is going to continue. The penalty decisions which you might

:19:43. > :19:47.have had against you, they are going against you as well at the

:19:47. > :19:51.minute. That's something that will even itself out.

:19:51. > :20:01.Battered and bruised, Norwich had little to celebrate so far, will

:20:01. > :20:07.

:20:07. > :20:11.Bolton away offer any respite? We will have the results tomorrow

:20:11. > :20:21.evening on Look East. Coming up:

:20:21. > :20:21.

:20:21. > :20:24.The Lib Dems gather for their annual conference this weekend with

:20:24. > :20:27.the polls showing them down in the dumps. It's a far cry from the

:20:27. > :20:31.heady days of the general election campaign when Nick Clegg was

:20:31. > :20:34.threatening a major breakthrough. Some members remain uneasy about

:20:34. > :20:40.the coalition which is why the annual conference could be a

:20:40. > :20:45.fractious affair. Here's Andrew Yes, it has been a torrid year for

:20:45. > :20:49.the Liberal Democrats. It culminated in them losing 114

:20:54. > :20:58.polls. Let me show you how much their poll ratings plunged. April

:20:58. > :21:02.last year, they were on 32% after Nick Clegg's performance in the

:21:02. > :21:06.leadership debate. A month later, the formation of the coalition,

:21:06. > :21:09.they are doing well, 26%, but the reality of Government. But the end

:21:09. > :21:13.of the party conference season, of the party conference season,

:21:13. > :21:19.they are down to 17%. Then we have the row over tuition fees, council

:21:19. > :21:24.cuts and the elections. According to a YouGov poll, they are on 9%.

:21:24. > :21:26.The fear is that if the party doesn't start shouting louder,

:21:26. > :21:32.doesn't start shouting louder, things will become terminal.

:21:32. > :21:36.There are a few out of work Liberal Democrats in the the region at the

:21:36. > :21:41.moment. Like Brian, five months ago, he was the leader of Northampton

:21:41. > :21:44.Council, but he lost his seat with all, but for of his colleagues.

:21:44. > :21:48.We're suffering from being the scapegoats to the bad decisions

:21:53. > :21:57.He still feels his party was right to go into coalition, but he says

:21:57. > :22:00.the party leadership leadership must flex its muscles now.

:22:00. > :22:07.The Liberal Democrats ensured that the lower paid are brought out of

:22:07. > :22:11.tax. The improvement in schooling, pupil pupil premium. We need to get

:22:11. > :22:15.the credit for it. This year's local election were

:22:15. > :22:19.awful for the Lib Dems. There will be no open rebellion, but many in

:22:19. > :22:23.the party want the leadership to get a grip. We have got to make

:22:23. > :22:26.sure we aren't the fall guys for the Conservative dominated

:22:26. > :22:30.Government. It is more their fault, if there are things going wrong as

:22:30. > :22:33.ours and we have got to make sure that it is not our spokes people

:22:33. > :22:38.who are put up as Liberal Democrat MPs too give the bad news and the

:22:38. > :22:41.Conservatives put up to give the good news.

:22:41. > :22:44.The Politics Show will be reporting from the Lib Dem's conference on

:23:06. > :23:11.wearing a version of something that sashays down the cat-walk in the

:23:11. > :23:13.next few days. All the big names will be there, including Vivienne

:23:13. > :23:17.Westwood and Paul Smith. There's also room for emerging talent like

:23:17. > :23:27.the Suffolk knitwear designer Craig Lawrence. Dawn Gerber has been to

:23:27. > :23:29.

:23:29. > :23:34.Bold, textured, colourful designs. These are the creation of Craig

:23:34. > :23:40.Laurence from Ipswich who draws inspiration from his childhood.

:23:40. > :23:46.I love Felixstowe and Great Yarmouth. We used to go on holiday

:23:46. > :23:51.to Great Yarmouth and fee licks stou is just up the road. There was

:23:51. > :23:56.loads of things to pick up, amazing colours. There is a great

:23:56. > :24:00.atmosphere there. He graduated from St Martin's

:24:00. > :24:04.College in London, internationally renowned for its creativity, now he

:24:04. > :24:14.is preparing for his 2012 spring/summer collection for London

:24:16. > :24:22.Fashion Week and his designs caught the eye of many celebrities.

:24:22. > :24:27.Tilda won that for a magazine cover. We have got this one which is a

:24:27. > :24:36.similar technique to the one GaGa was wearing and that was on the

:24:36. > :24:41.front of Grazia Magazine. We have pieces like this. These are more

:24:41. > :24:47.experimental pieces. Tomorrow's Craig's delicately

:24:47. > :24:57.crafted knitwear goes on the Walk. It is a nerve-wracking time, but

:24:57. > :24:57.

:24:57. > :25:05.great exposure and and we'll be I always think it is amazing how

:25:06. > :25:08.quickly things go from the catwalk I have my eye on that gold dress!

:25:08. > :25:12.Evening. Well, it has been a fine day today.

:25:12. > :25:15.There have been one or two showers and there are now. At the moment,

:25:15. > :25:19.we have got low pressure moving in, we have we have got this weather

:25:19. > :25:23.system here, this frontal system. That's going to bring rain later on

:25:23. > :25:26.tonight. If we look at the satellite chart, if you fix your

:25:26. > :25:31.eyes on that wedge of cloud there, that's where there are one or two

:25:31. > :25:34.showers affecting northern Cambridgeshire and and parts of

:25:34. > :25:38.Northamptonshire. They will track north-east wards and the commuter

:25:38. > :25:44.is not -- computer is not picking them up. The rest of us will start

:25:44. > :25:49.the night dry. It is the second half of the night towards 4am or

:25:49. > :25:52.5am where we could get patchy rain. A good covering of cloud means

:25:52. > :25:57.temperatures won't dip lower than 10 Celsius. The winds are south-

:25:57. > :26:02.westerly. Generally light to moderate in strength. Tomorrow, low

:26:02. > :26:06.pressure moves in and it anchors itself over Northern Britain. That

:26:06. > :26:11.does mean we are in for wet weather this weekend. Perhaps not as windy

:26:11. > :26:16.as we thought it would be, but it is going to be a story of showers

:26:16. > :26:21.or spells of rain. First thing tomorrow, some patchy rain to start

:26:21. > :26:25.with and then showers following it. They could be on the sharper side,

:26:25. > :26:30.but it should brighten up. In the sunshine temperatures could climb

:26:30. > :26:34.to 18 Celsius at best. In terms of wind speed, it is going

:26:34. > :26:41.to be moderate to fresh at times. So fairly blustery as the showers

:26:41. > :26:45.move through, but the advantage of the wind speed is they will move

:26:45. > :26:50.through quickly. Further showers expected for the

:26:50. > :26:54.afternoon, but I am running the chart through to the evening so if

:26:54. > :26:57.you are out and about, you will see most places end the day on a dry

:26:57. > :27:01.note. The next five days looks like there, patchy rain to start

:27:01. > :27:05.tomorrow, clearing up and then showers behind, but for Sunday a

:27:05. > :27:09.cool day can'ted. Very cloudy with spells of rain. It could be more

:27:09. > :27:13.persistent and set in. Monday looks like a dry start. The chance of

:27:13. > :27:18.showers later on and I have to say, Tuesday and Wednesday is really up

:27:18. > :27:21.in the air as to what will happen. It could be a dry day or we could

:27:21. > :27:27.get heavy showers. There is uncertainty for the beginning of

:27:27. > :27:31.next week. Overnight lows, they are just just dipping delow average for
