:00:00. > :00:07.BBC weather website. That is it all from the BBC's News at Six.

:00:08. > :00:11.Victory for the A14 campaigners in East Anglia tonight as the

:00:12. > :00:19.Government bows to pressure and scraps plans to charge a toll. It

:00:20. > :00:24.would have been an additional cost for not just us but the whole of the

:00:25. > :00:27.area, and as a growth area, the last thing we need is additional cost.

:00:28. > :00:30.Hello and welcome to Look East with Amelia and me. Also tonight: The

:00:31. > :00:34.death of a 12`year`old girl in a school gym. A coroner decides today

:00:35. > :00:38.it was a tragic accident with no`one to blame. The Prince of Wales pays

:00:39. > :00:43.tribute to the women who risked their lives as secret agents during

:00:44. > :00:46.the Second World War. And the bidding started at two million ` and

:00:47. > :00:48.climbed to four. A potential superstar is sold at the Newmarket

:00:49. > :01:03.sales. Campaigners in Suffolk are claiming

:01:04. > :01:04.a victory tonight after a controversial plan to charge drivers

:01:05. > :01:11.to use the A14 was thrown out. Government ministers have been under

:01:12. > :01:14.pressure for weeks over the proposal to introduce a toll road to pay for

:01:15. > :01:20.urgent improvements in Cambridgeshire. The official

:01:21. > :01:23.announcement is expected tomorrow. Today's climb`down follows weeks of

:01:24. > :01:27.pressure and lobbying from MPs and business groups. Our own recent

:01:28. > :01:31.reports have been pointing to a change of heart. And today, a leaked

:01:32. > :01:35.report in the Financial Times put things beyond doubt. The tolling

:01:36. > :01:39.plan is controversial because the A14 corridor is the main link

:01:40. > :01:46.between the Midlands and the port of Felixstowe. Some described it as a

:01:47. > :01:51.tax on Suffolk. The route is used by 40% of the UK's container trade. So

:01:52. > :01:54.how did it come about? Thirteen years ago, Tony Blair's government

:01:55. > :01:59.announced a new A14 would be built between Cambridge and Huntingdon.

:02:00. > :02:05.But in 2010, the newly`elected Coalition scrapped it saying there

:02:06. > :02:09.wasn't enough money. In September this year, the Government announced

:02:10. > :02:13.a ?1.5 billion scheme to upgrade the route. It would run for 12 miles

:02:14. > :02:19.between Ellington and the Cambridge services near Boxworth. Cars would

:02:20. > :02:24.have been charged between ?1 and ?1.50. Lorries, ?3. So let's start

:02:25. > :02:32.with Richard Daniel, and the campaign in Suffolk to stop the

:02:33. > :02:37.toll. In a huge warehouse outside Bury Saint Edmunds, goods exported

:02:38. > :02:42.through Felixstowe are sorted and stored. Almost everything goes on

:02:43. > :02:48.the A14 to the Midlands and the North. No surprise that they were

:02:49. > :02:51.opposed to the toll. What this company and many across Suffolk

:02:52. > :03:00.argued was that the toll amounted to attacks, `` a tax. It would have put

:03:01. > :03:04.them at a disadvantage. Any upgrade will be a benefit, but as soon as

:03:05. > :03:10.you start paying for that by way of a toll, you are taxing us as users

:03:11. > :03:16.of the A14, which makes us less competitive against rivals. Within

:03:17. > :03:21.weeks of the announcement, the backlash began. There was concern it

:03:22. > :03:26.would hit the port of Felixstowe and the thousands of jobs that depend on

:03:27. > :03:33.it. Jobs like these, where they were sourcing fruit. It is also one of

:03:34. > :03:39.the region's largest hauliers, and it would have meant a bill of six

:03:40. > :03:44.figures. We have approximately 300 loads in and out of this site, that

:03:45. > :03:53.doubles at Christmas, at least 300`401 cost, we would have to pay.

:03:54. > :03:58.At this truckstop, relief that the government has had a change of

:03:59. > :04:04.heart. Fantastic. Common sense. We pay enough on the roads. We would've

:04:05. > :04:10.had to stop and pay, it would have been even worse. It is bad enough.

:04:11. > :04:15.In order to have new infrastructure we needed to find ways of funding

:04:16. > :04:19.it. In this instance, this was not the right way to go. We made it

:04:20. > :04:23.plain to the Prime Minister and explained. They understood the

:04:24. > :04:28.argument and have taken it on board. Not everybody is happy. The new road

:04:29. > :04:34.will pass a few metres from this woman's home. She fears it will mean

:04:35. > :04:39.more vehicles. We won't be able to sleep at night, there will be more

:04:40. > :04:46.accidents, because they will just go mad like they always do, full. In

:04:47. > :04:54.Suffolk there is relief that this has been scrapped. Let's hear from

:04:55. > :04:57.our business correspondent Richard Bond. We've heard from the hauliers,

:04:58. > :05:00.but what's been the reaction from wider business community? Much

:05:01. > :05:04.relief ` the perception is we're going to get a new road for free,

:05:05. > :05:08.even though it won't be because we as taxpayers will have to pay for

:05:09. > :05:12.it. But business has been on an interesting journey with this road.

:05:13. > :05:15.When the original scheme was scrapped after the 2010 election,

:05:16. > :05:21.the CBI suggested tolling as a way of reviving this very important road

:05:22. > :05:28.project at a time of austerity. The government took up that idea. They

:05:29. > :05:34.expected the region to be grateful for that. What it got was a backlash

:05:35. > :05:42.from the business community. Because nobody wants a toll road? Indeed

:05:43. > :05:46.not. One of the problems in this country is that toll roads are so

:05:47. > :05:50.unusual. In France, there are loads of them, they cover thousands of

:05:51. > :05:53.miles. Possibly a region over there would feel left out if they did not

:05:54. > :05:59.have it. In Britain it is the opposite. There would be an

:06:00. > :06:05.attitude, why would we have to pay to use it when most regions don't?

:06:06. > :06:12.How big a player was Felixstowe in all of this? It was not happy with

:06:13. > :06:19.this proposal, it obviously faces competition from London Gateway in

:06:20. > :06:26.Essex. Had it gone ahead, hauliers using Felixstowe would have faced

:06:27. > :06:30.the toll. That would have been unfair. 30,000 jobs depend on

:06:31. > :06:33.Felixstowe, that might have had an influence. Thank you. The official

:06:34. > :06:37.announcement tomorrow represents a big victory for campaigners who

:06:38. > :06:40.argued that a toll road on the A14 in Cambridgeshire would effectively

:06:41. > :06:43.be a tax on drivers in Suffolk. That campaign was co`ordinated by the

:06:44. > :06:51.Suffolk Chamber of Commerce. Its spokesman, Stephen Britt, is in

:06:52. > :06:58.Felixstowe now. Isn't this really a case be careful what you wish for? A

:06:59. > :07:04.small toll is one thing but congestion will cost a lot more.

:07:05. > :07:08.Good evening. First thing I would say is we don't want to pre`empt any

:07:09. > :07:13.announcement that may or may not be made tomorrow, but if this is true,

:07:14. > :07:17.the news leaking out today, we are very pleased. As you say, the

:07:18. > :07:22.campaign, fronted by the Suffolk Chamber of Commerce, involving local

:07:23. > :07:31.businesses, local MPs and other business voices in the county, we

:07:32. > :07:38.are really pleased. I understand you are pleased. Just to go back to my

:07:39. > :07:41.question, wouldn't it be cheaper to pay a small toll land to sit for

:07:42. > :07:50.hours in traffic because we haven't got a good enough road? Doing it on

:07:51. > :07:54.this one small bit of the UK road network would be totally unfair. If

:07:55. > :07:58.the government wants to try it, they should do a programme across the

:07:59. > :08:02.country. Some people would say that if you use it you should pay for it,

:08:03. > :08:07.and you should not need to if you don't use it. That applies to every

:08:08. > :08:12.road in the country, so that argument does not really apply. Have

:08:13. > :08:20.you had any nods and winks from the government about where we stand now?

:08:21. > :08:27.None whatsoever. We woke up this morning to see the news in all the

:08:28. > :08:32.various broadcast, and it was a surprise to all of us. I don't think

:08:33. > :08:37.even our local MPs were aware of what was being announced by Danny

:08:38. > :08:44.Alexander. When did you get a feeling that things were moving your

:08:45. > :08:48.way? Did they tell you that? They have not said that at all at any

:08:49. > :08:51.point. All they have been doing is listening to our concerns, we have

:08:52. > :08:56.been making the point again and again, MPs saw the Prime Minister a

:08:57. > :09:03.few weeks ago, they have seen the Chancellor, I was at a meeting a few

:09:04. > :09:08.weeks ago where we lobbied the Chancellor again, and last week,

:09:09. > :09:13.some local businesses went to see Patrick McLoughlin, the transport

:09:14. > :09:17.Secretary, and we said the same thing to him. What do you think this

:09:18. > :09:22.means for the port of Felixstowe? It will be good news for the port. It

:09:23. > :09:25.keeps the port on a level playing field with all the other ports in

:09:26. > :09:30.the UK. Thank you for being with us this evening. We will be getting

:09:31. > :09:33.political reaction to that story from Westminster later in the

:09:34. > :09:36.programme. And I'll have more on tonight's Look East late news. Join

:09:37. > :09:40.me at 10:25 after the BBC Ten O'Clock News. In other news, tonight

:09:41. > :09:43.an inquest has been told that the death of a 12`year`old girl during a

:09:44. > :09:46.PE lesson was a "tragic accident". Trevyn Joslin, who lived in Thorpe

:09:47. > :09:49.Marriott near Norwich, died in hospital a week after she was

:09:50. > :09:56.injured by falling from a pommel horse at Taverham High School.

:09:57. > :10:05.Trevyn Joslin's mother arriving at the hearing, hugging the teacher at

:10:06. > :10:09.the centre of the tragedy. The teacher said she was enthusiastic

:10:10. > :10:13.and very confident, one of the better gymnast in the group. She

:10:14. > :10:18.said, she went to make the jump, ran up perfectly well, her feet were on

:10:19. > :10:22.the springboard, she reached for the handles, lifted her legs, her right

:10:23. > :10:29.fruit cop the front of the horse, she toppled forward. `` caught. She

:10:30. > :10:35.landed facedown on the mat. She was trying to most words. She was

:10:36. > :10:42.struggling to breathe. We realised that was serious. Another teacher

:10:43. > :10:46.said the school database included a note that she had a medical

:10:47. > :10:52.condition involving her neck, with a reduction of space between vertebra

:10:53. > :10:56.because of a previous infection. Her GP had voiced concern that there was

:10:57. > :11:00.potential weakness in her neck. Under the direction of the assistant

:11:01. > :11:07.coroner, the jury decided she had died as a result of the accident. We

:11:08. > :11:12.shall never forget her. The memorial garden is much loved and well

:11:13. > :11:19.tended. It is a quiet place where all can sit and reflect. The cherry

:11:20. > :11:25.tree planted in her memory will be an everlasting tribute to her and

:11:26. > :11:30.the contribution she may to our school and the lives of her fellow

:11:31. > :11:35.students. Investigations by the police and health and safety

:11:36. > :11:38.executive found no fault with the school or the teachers. They said

:11:39. > :11:43.they have carried out a comprehensive review of all health

:11:44. > :11:47.and safety procedures. The family left after hearing part of a report

:11:48. > :11:52.from the Home Office pathologist. He said what happened to their daughter

:11:53. > :11:53.could have caused fatal injuries even in someone with a perfectly

:11:54. > :12:05.normal neck. Plans for a new junction on the M11

:12:06. > :12:09.in Essex have been published for the first time. It would be at Harlow,

:12:10. > :12:14.where the local MP says it's desperately needed because gridlock

:12:15. > :12:20.is choking economic growth. From the M11, there is only one road into

:12:21. > :12:23.Harlow, and the traffic is often busy. Getting in and out of the tone

:12:24. > :12:31.can be frustrating. You only need one accident or breakdown going on

:12:32. > :12:36.the M11, or one accident on the end 25, and it becomes gridlocked. That

:12:37. > :12:43.is frustrating for companies like this. Lorries are often stuck in the

:12:44. > :12:46.traffic jams. Anything that would improve the logistics of getting in

:12:47. > :12:50.and out of Harlow would improve the business and we think it would

:12:51. > :12:55.improve the town. Planners did not help matters when it was built,

:12:56. > :13:00.thinking the M11 would go to the west of the tone, that is where they

:13:01. > :13:06.booed the industrial estates. The M11 actually went East. Today, plans

:13:07. > :13:12.for a new junction went on display. The MP says it will transform the

:13:13. > :13:16.economy. Surveys suggest there would be about 5000 new jobs created,

:13:17. > :13:22.because more companies would come into Harlow, and existing companies

:13:23. > :13:26.would expand. Because any new junction would be on the same side

:13:27. > :13:30.of tone, it seems some of the constituents need some convincing.

:13:31. > :13:37.It may solve it or help it for five years but then it will be like the

:13:38. > :13:43.M25, make it bigger and bigger. S I think it will make Harlow more

:13:44. > :13:45.gridlocked than it is already. It is a long way off. The plans still need

:13:46. > :14:03.government approval. Still to come: Famous Frankel's

:14:04. > :14:10.first child fetches a fortune. We search for our sporting unsung hero.

:14:11. > :14:14.The Prince of Wales has spent the day in Bedfordshire. He looked round

:14:15. > :14:18.a cereal factory and enjoyed a half pint of beer in a pub. He also

:14:19. > :14:22.unveiled a memorial to the women who were secret agents during World War

:14:23. > :14:25.Two. During the war, 75 women ` mainly British and from all over the

:14:26. > :14:28.country ` put their lives on the line. Most were dropped by parachute

:14:29. > :14:31.on moonlit nights behind enemy lines. Lots of them were captured.

:14:32. > :14:33.16 were killed. Our reporter Neil Bradford was with Prince Charles

:14:34. > :14:43.today. It was a very public celebration of

:14:44. > :14:46.this village's secretive past. The Prince of Wales was the guest of

:14:47. > :14:52.honour. He unveiled a memorial to the women who flew from nearby RAF

:14:53. > :14:57.bases during the Second World War. It was so secretive, not even the

:14:58. > :14:59.locals knew what happened there. It was so secret that even the

:15:00. > :15:05.villagers did not know what happened there. They knew that planes went in

:15:06. > :15:13.and out but did not know why. It has since become a farm and closed down.

:15:14. > :15:18.75 female agents flew, dropped behind enemy lines to take part in a

:15:19. > :15:23.variety of missions. Among them was this woman, who signed up to the

:15:24. > :15:30.special operations executive, to get her own back after her husband was

:15:31. > :15:37.killed in action. She was captured in France, after a battle. She

:15:38. > :15:43.killed at least one soldier and wounded others. Those who work for

:15:44. > :15:46.the special operations executive only felt able to share their

:15:47. > :15:53.secrets decades later. My mother thought I worked for the Ministry of

:15:54. > :15:57.fish. She died at almost 80 without ever knowing the truth. We were

:15:58. > :16:02.under the official secrets act and it was not until 2000 when the files

:16:03. > :16:08.were open to the public and she was allowed to talk. Most of us were

:16:09. > :16:13.dead by then. This was one of four in Gidman is for his Royal high. He

:16:14. > :16:22.met local artists and schoolchildren at an art gallery. He also called in

:16:23. > :16:22.on a Christmas tree Festival. He met factory workers and business

:16:23. > :16:33.leaders. Despite the busy itinerary, the

:16:34. > :16:38.Prince still had time for a swift half. He joined the veterans, to

:16:39. > :16:40.revel in their stories. Thanks to this memorial, they will now always

:16:41. > :16:49.be remembered. The search for the BBC East Sports

:16:50. > :16:53.Unsung Hero is almost at an end. We're down to a short list of three.

:16:54. > :16:56.We're looking for that special person who works tirelessly behind

:16:57. > :16:59.the scenes to make sure others enjoy their sport. Tonight the first

:17:00. > :17:02.person on our short list is the driving force behind a netball team,

:17:03. > :17:06.the Hertfordshire Mavericks. Gloria Keech gives up 50 hours a week to

:17:07. > :17:12.make sure hundreds of girls enjoy netball.

:17:13. > :17:23.For nearly 45 years, Gloria Keech has lived and breathed netball. You

:17:24. > :17:26.will find her courtside at the Hertfordshire Mavericks, the super

:17:27. > :17:31.league club she set up from scratch. I have played since I was nine. I

:17:32. > :17:39.find netball is a team sport, the camaraderie in netball is second to

:17:40. > :17:45.none. She gets her hands dirty, she has a range of skills.

:17:46. > :17:52.She is the heart and soul. We would not have a franchise, compete

:17:53. > :17:56.nationally, if it was not for her. This region did not have a netball

:17:57. > :18:01.team in the top division before Gloria Keech stepped in. Though they

:18:02. > :18:06.have won league titles, produced England players, and regularly

:18:07. > :18:16.attract crowds of nearly 1000 fans. It goes down to grassroots. It is

:18:17. > :18:20.not just the elite level. Gloria's role is in the background, just how

:18:21. > :18:23.she likes it. The forms get filled in, the club takes over, which

:18:24. > :18:31.operates thanks to a team of volunteers set up by, guess who?

:18:32. > :18:35.Development is our middle name. It is not just about developing

:18:36. > :18:40.players, it is officials, anybody associated, right down to match the

:18:41. > :18:44.volunteers. There is still time to cheer the Bedfordshire County

:18:45. > :18:52.committee. Seven days, 50 hours a week, netball is lucky to have her

:18:53. > :18:57.on the sidelines. The winner will be announced on Friday. Tomorrow we

:18:58. > :19:01.stay with netball and the coach from Essex who's given more than 40 years

:19:02. > :19:03.to the sport. Sheikh Mohammed has bought himself another very

:19:04. > :19:07.expensive piece of horse flesh. He has paid a near world record for a

:19:08. > :19:10.foal fathered by the undefeated champion Frankel. The Sheikh's

:19:11. > :19:13.latest acquisition came at a packed auction in Newmarket. But no`one

:19:14. > :19:16.today could admire the form of this potential superstar ` because the

:19:17. > :19:18.foal hasn't been born yet. Our sports reporter Tom Williams was

:19:19. > :19:32.there when the hammer went down. The energy, the excitement, the

:19:33. > :19:36.anticipation, palpable. Tattersalls is packed to the rafters. Every

:19:37. > :19:47.mover and shaker is eager to catch a glimpse of history in the making.

:19:48. > :19:52.Dancing Rain, in foal to Frankel, is it a match made in heaven? The

:19:53. > :19:56.beauty is nobody knows the answer, but if she inherits any of his

:19:57. > :20:00.class, and her class, it has a good chance. Dancing Rain's finest hour

:20:01. > :20:13.came two years ago at Epsom. Storming finish, the only winner

:20:14. > :20:23.carrying her first foal to be offered at public auction in the

:20:24. > :20:30.first 50 years. The world record for a brood mare currently stands at ?4

:20:31. > :20:34.million. An expectant hush. This was the first of Frankel's foals to be

:20:35. > :20:43.sold in the UK. John Ferguson entered at 4 million,

:20:44. > :20:50.bidding on behalf of Sheikh Mohammed, the ruler of Dubai. This

:20:51. > :20:55.was a horse he needed to have. S you can think it is a lot of money but

:20:56. > :21:01.you need to consider she will breed tend foals. It is rather like having

:21:02. > :21:05.a football team. If you want a striker from Barcelona, you will try

:21:06. > :21:13.and get him, no matter how good your strikers. For racing on the flat,

:21:14. > :21:18.you need to have a good horse. 4 million guineas, ?4.2 million, the

:21:19. > :21:24.second most expensive ever in Europe. Frankel was the decisive

:21:25. > :21:32.factor. Still the world's top`rated racehorse, no breeding. He has

:21:33. > :21:38.earned over ?50 million at start, five times more than he won on the

:21:39. > :21:44.track. `` at stud. He is a huge draw. Incredibly sought`after. He

:21:45. > :21:53.has not diminished in the public eye. The interest is overwhelming.

:21:54. > :22:00.That is the same in the bloodstock world. We cannot wait for his

:22:01. > :22:05.foals. The bloodstock market is buoyant. Racegoers will need to wait

:22:06. > :22:12.until 2016 for the next generation of Frankels to prove their worth. It

:22:13. > :22:15.is a lot of money. A reminder now of today's top story: the Government

:22:16. > :22:18.will confirm tomorrow that it is scrapping plans to impose a toll on

:22:19. > :22:21.the A14 in Cambridgeshire. The about`turn follows weeks of

:22:22. > :22:26.campaigning by MPs and business groups. The MPs from Suffolk played

:22:27. > :22:29.a very big part in the campaign. Let's go to Westminster now, and our

:22:30. > :22:33.political correspondent Andrew Sinclair.

:22:34. > :22:38.Tomorrow morning at 10am, Danny Alexander, the Chief Secretary to

:22:39. > :22:44.the Treasury, will give a speech just over there were he will unveil

:22:45. > :22:48.what is grandly being called the fourth national infrastructure plan.

:22:49. > :22:52.In that, he will confirm that the toll road is no more. Critics will

:22:53. > :22:56.say this is a U`turn, the government will say it was only plans, out for

:22:57. > :23:04.consultation, and they have listen to concerns. The government has

:23:05. > :23:08.always believed that if you make it easier for people to get around, it

:23:09. > :23:13.will boost the economy. Several years ago, the Chancellor identified

:23:14. > :23:19.the A14 as one of the country's main arteries, and pushed for it to be

:23:20. > :23:23.improved as quickly as possible. This road has been delayed too long

:23:24. > :23:27.in the past. I am determined it goes ahead. At first it was only the

:23:28. > :23:32.local Liberal Democrats who were opposed to the idea. But the line

:23:33. > :23:36.from the government was clear. Charging motorists was the only way

:23:37. > :23:41.to afford it. S I cannot be more plain. When you live in difficult

:23:42. > :23:52.economic circumstances, you want roads to be built. Singling out the

:23:53. > :23:55.A14 seems arbitrary and unfair. It was the involvement of MPs from

:23:56. > :23:59.Suffolk which changed the dynamic. They called for debates and they

:24:00. > :24:04.lobbied the Prime Minister. The chancellor visited the region.

:24:05. > :24:08.Wherever he went he was at about the A14. Suddenly, it became clear that

:24:09. > :24:11.the government was having to rethink. I hear loud and clear there

:24:12. > :24:17.are a lot of people worried about the tolls. I will take that very

:24:18. > :24:21.seriously. A lot of people will be pleased that the plans have been

:24:22. > :24:26.dropped. The question now, what goes on in its place? That is a very good

:24:27. > :24:32.question. What will be in the place? We will get the details. You

:24:33. > :24:37.should always look at the small print. In the last 30 minutes I have

:24:38. > :24:40.started to get some idea of what will be announced. It looks as if

:24:41. > :24:43.the plans will stay exactly the same, the Chancellor has just found

:24:44. > :24:51.some extra money from somewhere to pay for building the new road

:24:52. > :24:54.without any toll. The other thing the government will stress his plans

:24:55. > :25:02.are still on schedule. They want building to start in 2016. Do we

:25:03. > :25:06.know why? I understand the decision was taken by the Prime Minister. It

:25:07. > :25:12.seems that he made the decision after he was told that there would

:25:13. > :25:19.be no free alternative to motorists who did not want to pay to use the

:25:20. > :25:22.toll. They felt he had not been properly briefed. He was under the

:25:23. > :25:28.impression there was a choice. They said they were up for having the

:25:29. > :25:33.toll but you need a choice. The Prime Minister agreed with them. Now

:25:34. > :25:36.the weather. You will be glad to know the sunshine is going to make

:25:37. > :25:39.an appearance tomorrow. Today we have a lot of cloud. That is how it

:25:40. > :25:44.will remain through this evening and for much of the night. That should

:25:45. > :25:48.mean we will be free of frost. We should mostly stayed dry, but there

:25:49. > :25:53.is a weather front arriving later on which could produce rain. If there

:25:54. > :26:01.are any gaps, perhaps around the wash, on the whole, it will be

:26:02. > :26:07.3`4dC. We start tomorrow with this weather front approaching. That will

:26:08. > :26:13.mean a cloudy start. Sunshine is expected to come out mid to late

:26:14. > :26:17.morning. There is not a great deal of rain. Like and patchy rain

:26:18. > :26:20.clearing quickly to the south`east and then we will start to see that

:26:21. > :26:25.sunshine. It will not be particularly warm, seven degrees

:26:26. > :26:28.will be the highest. With the sunshine, it that will make a

:26:29. > :26:33.difference to how the weather feels. The light wind will help things

:26:34. > :26:38.along. It remains try and find. With clear skies, a much colder night

:26:39. > :26:42.follows. Looking ahead, the next weather front is on its way on

:26:43. > :26:47.Thursday. This is a cold front. It will not bring rain, but it will be

:26:48. > :26:52.accompanied by a strong wind. The significance for us in the East is a

:26:53. > :26:57.particularly strong wind across the Norfolk coast with some strong gusts

:26:58. > :27:02.into the evening time. That could coincide with high tides, producing

:27:03. > :27:07.problems. Then we have this cold air flooding southwards. A much colder

:27:08. > :27:15.day is expected on Friday. I'll be is not far away. It should push back

:27:16. > :27:19.by the weekend. `` the mild a. A very short lived cold snap. It is

:27:20. > :27:23.back to the bright start on Thursday, but it will turn cloudy.

:27:24. > :27:26.There will be some rain on that front but the strength of the wind

:27:27. > :27:31.is the concern. It will be windy across the region. Break but called

:27:32. > :27:39.on Friday. The cloud returns on Saturday. A sharp frost expected on

:27:40. > :27:41.Friday night. It is feeling like winter. Goodbye.
