Hello and welcome to Look East. In the programme tonight, counting the

:00:09.:00:14.

cost of the East Coast storm surge. Local councils say government

:00:15.:00:16.

compensation may not be enough. Grieving together. How RAF

:00:17.:00:19.

Lakenheath is dealing with the tragic loss of four of their own.

:00:20.:00:23.

The great thing is that we are pulling together. People are helping

:00:24.:00:28.

each other. Leaning on each other. When they see somebody is hurting,

:00:29.:00:32.

they come up to them and put their arm around them and say, I'm here

:00:33.:00:34.

for you. The world number one in darts aiming

:00:35.:00:39.

for the world title. And Sam Smith, the singer who's

:00:40.:00:42.

following in the footsteps of stars like Adele and Jessie J.

:00:43.:00:53.

Hello. First tonight, the bill for cleaning up after the biggest North

:00:54.:01:02.

Sea storm surge in 60 years. The BBC has learned that councils on the

:01:03.:01:05.

East coast have paid out ?3.5 million. But there are fears they'll

:01:06.:01:10.

be left out of pocket. The North Norfolk coast bore the

:01:11.:01:13.

brunt of the storms on December fifth. Nearly all of the total has

:01:14.:01:17.

been run up by just one authority, North Norfolk District Council. But

:01:18.:01:20.

councils and MPs are worried that government compensation will not

:01:21.:01:23.

cover the full amount. Our political correspondent Andrew Sinclair

:01:24.:01:25.

reports. Along the North Norfolk coast, they

:01:26.:01:30.

are still hard at work. 1.5 miles of promenade in North Norfolk was

:01:31.:01:35.

ruined in the storm. More than 200 beach huts and seafront properties

:01:36.:01:40.

destroyed or badly damaged. So far, we reckon we have spent about ?3

:01:41.:01:44.

million and we are only expecting to get about ?1.6 million through

:01:45.:01:48.

insurance. North Norfolk's bill is by far the largest. But Waveney and

:01:49.:01:52.

Suffolk Coastal are looking at costs of ?140,000. West Norfolk at

:01:53.:02:00.

?97,000. For the last 30 years, there has been something called the

:02:01.:02:05.

Bellwin scheme. It is a form of emergency government financial

:02:06.:02:07.

assistance to help councils that have incurred unforeseen expenses in

:02:08.:02:09.

dealing with emergencies, particularly weather emergencies.

:02:10.:02:15.

But there are restrictions. Councils have to spend over a certain

:02:16.:02:19.

threshold before they can claim. Even then, they only get back 85% of

:02:20.:02:23.

their costs. And only temporary repairs are covered by the scheme.

:02:24.:02:27.

Something that is impractical when it comes to sea defences. It is for

:02:28.:02:32.

doing emergency repairs. Plugging the gap in the short`term. And we

:02:33.:02:39.

did not see the point of doing that. We could not do that, because some

:02:40.:02:43.

of the breaches and defences, it was a matter of getting them actually

:02:44.:02:46.

repaired in case it happened again. And all the work has to be done

:02:47.:02:50.

within two months, another problem when contractors are so stretched.

:02:51.:02:53.

And with so much demand on the scheme, MPs wondered if there will

:02:54.:02:57.

be enough money available. There are only two years that Bellwin hasn't

:02:58.:03:00.

been used somewhere in the country for a weather`related incident. I am

:03:01.:03:03.

concerned whether it is completely fit for purpose. Today, one of our

:03:04.:03:07.

Euro MPs suggested councils look to Brussels for help. The EU has a fund

:03:08.:03:12.

for areas badly hit by weather. Local authorities, as we know, are

:03:13.:03:19.

now extremely stretched. And we need to exploit all sources of revenue

:03:20.:03:24.

that we can. Because unless more money can be found, the storm surge

:03:25.:03:28.

will have left many councils out of pocket.

:03:29.:03:35.

This afternoon, I spoke to the Great Yarmouth MP and Local Government

:03:36.:03:38.

Minister Brandon Lewis. I asked him if councils were right to be worried

:03:39.:03:42.

that the huge costs of the clear`up won't be covered by the Bellwin

:03:43.:03:45.

scheme. Well, the Bellwin scheme is a long and tried and tested scheme

:03:46.:03:49.

that has been around for just over 30 years now. It worked very, very

:03:50.:03:53.

well in 2007 and 2012, when we had even more severe flooding. So we've

:03:54.:03:57.

got about 22 authorities around the country now that have put in an

:03:58.:04:01.

indication. They have not yet put their figures in. They are still

:04:02.:04:04.

calculating those figures. So once we got those, the government can

:04:05.:04:08.

look at it and get that money out to the councils who do need it. But we

:04:09.:04:13.

heard in Andrew's report that, in North Norfolk for example, they are

:04:14.:04:16.

saying that the Bellwin scheme is not applicable to anything that

:04:17.:04:20.

isn't a temporary appear. `` repair. And of course, sea defences need to

:04:21.:04:24.

be permanent, don't they? The sea defences come within the Environment

:04:25.:04:28.

Agency. They are looking at the moment at the repair works they need

:04:29.:04:32.

to do. We have already started at a lot of areas around doing those

:04:33.:04:35.

repair works from early December. And obviously the ongoing work now

:04:36.:04:39.

from the floods we have had around the country in the last couple of

:04:40.:04:42.

weeks. But with anything like this, if local authorities believe they

:04:43.:04:46.

have a very specific issue and a really key issue, I always say to

:04:47.:04:50.

them to come and see us. Come and talk to us at the Department for

:04:51.:04:53.

Communities and Local Government about what the issue is and how we

:04:54.:04:57.

can help them work through it and deal with it. But if the councils

:04:58.:05:01.

are right, and the Bellwin scheme is not going to cover for the majority

:05:02.:05:04.

of what they are spending, are there any other places that they can get

:05:05.:05:08.

money from that you would suggest? Or is the government going to come

:05:09.:05:12.

up with any other money for them? There is a range of things. First of

:05:13.:05:15.

all, councils themselves have a responsibility and duty to their

:05:16.:05:18.

area, and will have budgeted. Particularly where there are areas

:05:19.:05:22.

of risk, to be able to cover that kind of thing. Bellwin is therefore

:05:23.:05:24.

those exceptional circumstances, like with these floodings, where it

:05:25.:05:28.

goes over and above. And to give protection of over and above the

:05:29.:05:31.

norm. The Department of Environment as well look at how they deal with

:05:32.:05:34.

these things through the Environment Agency. And they can bid through

:05:35.:05:38.

them for some of those works as well. So a range of options out

:05:39.:05:41.

there. There is also the Coastal Communities Fund. And if anybody in

:05:42.:05:44.

a local authority is having issues, then we always say to come and talk

:05:45.:05:49.

to us and we will help work with them through the situation they've

:05:50.:05:52.

got. Brandon Lewis, thank you very much. There will be more reaction to

:05:53.:05:55.

that on the Sunday Politics. Plus the hike in rail fares and the

:05:56.:05:58.

mix`up in the vote for a Conservative candidate for

:05:59.:06:01.

parliament. That's on Sunday at 11 o'clock on BBC One.

:06:02.:06:03.

The chaplain at RAF Lakenheath in Suffolk has told Look East today

:06:04.:06:07.

that a sense of brotherhood has helped the base through a week

:06:08.:06:10.

that's been marked by tragedy. On Tuesday, a Pave Hawk helicopter

:06:11.:06:12.

crashed on the Norfolk coast, killing the four airmen on board.

:06:13.:06:16.

Our Chief reporter Kim Riley is at Lakenheath now. A very difficult

:06:17.:06:19.

week is drawing to a close, with many personnel from here still

:06:20.:06:21.

deployed to that crash site on the North Norfolk coast, and you can

:06:22.:06:23.

imagine that challenge has not been easy, and they are getting support

:06:24.:06:28.

from the team of chaplains here. It will be weeks, though, before the

:06:29.:06:32.

conclusions of the accident in the instigator is unknown `` conclusions

:06:33.:06:37.

of the accident investigators are known.

:06:38.:06:41.

An F`15 taxis to the runway. To all appearances, it is Lakenheath

:06:42.:06:45.

business as usual. But the fence of the public viewing area is decked

:06:46.:06:48.

with flowers and tributes to the lost aircrew. Airman's wife, Dana

:06:49.:06:51.

Loux, is here with her young son. We are pulling together as a community.

:06:52.:06:56.

I didn't know any of them, but it is still a sad loss. These guys go to

:06:57.:07:03.

war all the time and come back fine. And then this happens. It's pretty

:07:04.:07:08.

sad. Captain John Ritter is one of six chaplains on station. They've

:07:09.:07:10.

been supporting the bereaved families and Lakenheath personnel

:07:11.:07:15.

working at the crash site. This scene is one of those that is

:07:16.:07:18.

difficult for anyone to be there. What we really try to do is help

:07:19.:07:22.

folks. Help them deal with what they're going through at the moment.

:07:23.:07:27.

The response that we've had from this country, and the people that

:07:28.:07:31.

surround us here at Lakenheath. It has been wonderful. It has been a

:07:32.:07:36.

blessing to all of us. Supporting us, letting us know they are praying

:07:37.:07:41.

for us. Praying for the families. It's been a great comfort knowing

:07:42.:07:45.

that we have such support from neighbours. We will get there

:07:46.:07:50.

eventually. Yeah, we will. I'm so sorry. You know what, it's OK. It's

:07:51.:07:56.

what he wanted to do. Back in Vancouver, in Washington state,

:07:57.:07:59.

Captain Chris Stover's parents, Rick and Mary, have been speaking of

:08:00.:08:02.

their pride in a distinguished air force career. When their son spoke

:08:03.:08:06.

to students, they learned of the extent of the challenge he faced

:08:07.:08:09.

during tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. Their crew had 100

:08:10.:08:15.

rescues attributed to them. And all the kids were like, wow! And in my

:08:16.:08:20.

mind, I'm thinking, damn, that's... One a day. One a day. That's going

:08:21.:08:26.

into fire, and that's going into situations. Knowing it was 100 was

:08:27.:08:30.

good enough for me. I didn't need to have all the details. The bereaved

:08:31.:08:35.

families of the four crew members will be the first to be briefed when

:08:36.:08:38.

the Accident Investigation Board reaches its conclusions in the next

:08:39.:08:42.

two to three months. Its official report will then be published.

:08:43.:08:49.

The bodies of the four aircrew are at the Norfolk and Norwich

:08:50.:08:52.

Hospital, where postmortem examinations are due to be carried

:08:53.:08:57.

out. A special service is being held at Saint Nicholas Church on Sunday,

:08:58.:09:01.

close to the crash site. There will be prayer is that many churches in

:09:02.:09:04.

the region on Sunday for the families who are mourning tonight,

:09:05.:09:09.

for the victims themselves, and of course everyone else touched by the

:09:10.:09:11.

tragedy. Kim, thank you very much.

:09:12.:09:17.

Ryanair has claimed that passengers at Stansted Airport could lose out,

:09:18.:09:21.

because of a change in the way the airport charges airlines. Stansted

:09:22.:09:26.

has had its charges set in the past. But from April, it will be allowed

:09:27.:09:31.

to decide them itself. Ryanair says costs will go up, but the airport

:09:32.:09:35.

insists that won't happen. Today's announcement from the Civil

:09:36.:09:38.

Aviation Authority has been welcomed by Stansted. It means the money the

:09:39.:09:42.

airport charges airlines to operate will no longer be controlled. The

:09:43.:09:46.

Civil Aviation Authority says Stansted does not have substantial

:09:47.:09:50.

market power. So therefore it should be free to compete with other

:09:51.:09:53.

airports without the need for price regulation. But Ryanair say this

:09:54.:09:59.

will harm passengers, leaving Stansted able to increase airport

:10:00.:10:02.

charges whenever it wishes. But this is something bosses say won't

:10:03.:10:07.

happen. Can you guarantee passengers will not pay more because of this

:10:08.:10:12.

announcement? If you put prices up, or lower service standards, then

:10:13.:10:18.

obviously that puts growth agenda at risk, so we are trying to grow this

:10:19.:10:22.

airport, making sure it can maximise its potential. The only way to do

:10:23.:10:27.

that is compete on price and service. The agreement to drop

:10:28.:10:33.

regulation is all linked to long term growth plans Stansted's drawn

:10:34.:10:36.

up with airlines to increase passenger numbers. They've fallen

:10:37.:10:38.

since their peak of nearly 24 million in 2007 and are now at just

:10:39.:10:44.

under 18. It's hoped numbers will increase to around 30 million in ten

:10:45.:10:47.

years' time. The decision is the result of a two year review. And,

:10:48.:10:52.

come April, the airport can freely negotiate its charges with airlines.

:10:53.:10:55.

Ryanair has described the CAA's decision as an example of regulatory

:10:56.:10:59.

failure. But Stansted's owners say passengers won't be hit and the

:11:00.:11:02.

airport will continue to grow over the next decade.

:11:03.:11:09.

A man from Suffolk has been sentenced to 20 years in prison

:11:10.:11:15.

after stabbing a man to death. Barry Estabrook, who's 44, pleaded guilty

:11:16.:11:18.

to murdering Brian Knock. Both had been drinking separately in the

:11:19.:11:21.

local pub at Bildeston. Brian Knock was killed outside his home. He'd

:11:22.:11:26.

been stabbed 21 times. A soldier based at Colchester

:11:27.:11:28.

Barracks has been charged with attempting to import five kilos of

:11:29.:11:33.

cocaine. Daryl Archer of 13 Air Assault Support Regiment The Royal

:11:34.:11:36.

Logistics Corps was arrested at Heathrow Airport on Wednesday. He's

:11:37.:11:41.

due in court later this month. He was arrested by Border Force

:11:42.:11:44.

officers after arriving on a flight from Sao Paulo in Brazil.

:11:45.:11:54.

Still to come on the programme tonight, the weekend weather, the

:11:55.:12:06.

sport, and tips for the top in part. We will talk to Sam Smith, the thing

:12:07.:12:10.

from Cambridgeshire who is the BBC's Sound of 2014.

:12:11.:12:17.

If new technology is your thing, you'll probably have heard of 3D

:12:18.:12:23.

printing. Instead of printing ink onto paper, it's a way of scanning

:12:24.:12:27.

an object and then printing it in 3D in plastic. What you get should be

:12:28.:12:30.

an exact copy of the original. Now that technology is being used on

:12:31.:12:34.

Tornado jets at their base at RAF Marham in Norfolk. It's a way of

:12:35.:12:38.

making spare parts on site and it saves a lot of time and money.

:12:39.:12:43.

In an aircraft hangar in Norfolk, something is changing. Where once

:12:44.:12:49.

parts were manufactured miles away. Now they are being printed. This

:12:50.:12:53.

part is used to protect the radio in a cockpit. First, a model is

:12:54.:12:59.

scanned. The stickers allow the computer to track where the laser is

:13:00.:13:04.

being applied to the surface. That surface is captured then transmitted

:13:05.:13:09.

to the computer. Then a 3D image is created ready to send to the printer

:13:10.:13:12.

to make. But instead of using ink, it uses plastic. It builds up

:13:13.:13:20.

layers, so it wastes nothing and saves time. A tool for an aircraft

:13:21.:13:25.

component can take anything from a few weeks to several months to

:13:26.:13:31.

manufacture. With the combination of 3D scanning and 3D printing we use,

:13:32.:13:34.

we can reduce those timescales down to a matter of days. For small

:13:35.:13:39.

parts, even hours. The plastic for these casings is made specifically

:13:40.:13:43.

to protect the aircraft. Then after around 24 hours in this printer, the

:13:44.:13:50.

component should be ready to fit. To be able to turn what we see in

:13:51.:13:53.

two`dimensions on our computer screens into the real

:13:54.:13:55.

three`dimensional construct. Get it in our hands, take it to the

:13:56.:13:58.

aircraft. Marvellous, absolutely fantastic. And this is the actual

:13:59.:14:05.

part fitted in the cockpit. Made out of the 3D printer, it costs a couple

:14:06.:14:09.

of hundred pounds. But if it was manufactured the traditional way, it

:14:10.:14:13.

would cost up to 2000. There were concerns about 3D printers in

:14:14.:14:16.

America being used to make guns. But more and more businesses are using

:14:17.:14:22.

them. This year, NASA wants to launch one into space to help

:14:23.:14:25.

astronauts manufacture parts. And in the future, it is hoped they could

:14:26.:14:32.

be used by air personnel abroad. There is no reason to suspect that,

:14:33.:14:35.

into the future, this kind of technology can be part of a deployed

:14:36.:14:38.

operation in support of maintaining and repairing those aircraft away

:14:39.:14:44.

from the main base such as this. The Tornado aircraft are due to be

:14:45.:14:48.

retired in 2019. By then, who knows which components will be made using

:14:49.:14:52.

a 3D printer? The future is in the imagination of the designers.

:14:53.:15:01.

It is amazing. So clever. Sport now. And with news of the

:15:02.:15:05.

darts World Championships and a great run for Ipswich Town, here's

:15:06.:15:08.

Tom. Yes, there's a fight to stay in the

:15:09.:15:12.

Premier League in this region plus a battle to get in it. Mick McCarthy

:15:13.:15:15.

today missed out on December's Manager of the Month award. But

:15:16.:15:19.

after a long unbeaten run dating back to November, Ipswich look

:15:20.:15:22.

well`placed to challenge for a play`off spot. Town host QPR

:15:23.:15:25.

tomorrow. It's sixth versus third in the Championship.

:15:26.:15:28.

For over a decade, it switched to have been going nowhere. 12 years in

:15:29.:15:32.

the same league, the Championship's longest Irving club, but after

:15:33.:15:39.

several seasons, Mick McCarthy has the club looking up. Yeah, I talk

:15:40.:15:45.

about it all the time, being in the promotion, we want to be in the top

:15:46.:15:53.

six. And I think we have probably deserved to be there. They were

:15:54.:15:58.

relegated in 2002, managers coming and going, in fact they were last

:15:59.:16:04.

challenging the play`offs six years ago, but since Marcus Evans took

:16:05.:16:07.

over, they have barely threatened promotion. We have not finished as

:16:08.:16:14.

high as expected, but we have had a great little run. We believe they

:16:15.:16:18.

are good enough to be in the top six, which is where we have aimed

:16:19.:16:22.

from day one. What would it mean for the club and town at its rich could

:16:23.:16:27.

get up this year? It has been a long time since the town has been up to

:16:28.:16:31.

those heady heights, but fantastic, not just the club, staff, but give

:16:32.:16:38.

the town a huge boost. It costs a lot of money to play football in the

:16:39.:16:42.

championship, and a golden egg in the Premiership, something we have

:16:43.:16:46.

been chasing, and the sooner we get there, the better. Certainly for the

:16:47.:16:51.

club 80 million in debt, but they have transformed and is deadly claim

:16:52.:16:57.

the league, raising expectation. When he came in common he inspired

:16:58.:17:00.

the players, but confidence to the first`team squad. So we are not

:17:01.:17:05.

surprised that he has worked so well. And the players love playing

:17:06.:17:11.

for him. And knocking on your doer looking for money? We have

:17:12.:17:19.

strengthened squad this Christmas. He has not not yet, but the door is

:17:20.:17:26.

open. Attendances down, averaging 16,500, nearly 25,010 years ago, but

:17:27.:17:32.

a fan's group as dons a survey to find out why. `` has launched a

:17:33.:17:39.

survey. Attendances down dramatically, a lot down to price, a

:17:40.:17:42.

cost of living crisis in the country, and people having to pick

:17:43.:17:47.

and choose those that it is price, football needs to realise that. But

:17:48.:17:53.

Ipswich are worth watching again, contenders, can they stay there? And

:17:54.:17:58.

you can see more on Mick McCarthy at noon tomorrow on BBC One on Football

:17:59.:18:05.

Focus. For Norwich, it's back to the

:18:06.:18:08.

Premier League away to Everton. City drew 1`1 with Crystal Palace on New

:18:09.:18:12.

Year's Day. But having gone five games without a win in the league,

:18:13.:18:15.

they've dropped to 15th, three points above the drop`zone. Players

:18:16.:18:18.

take full responsibility for what happens on the pitch, and we get set

:18:19.:18:21.

out to win a game of football. If we do not do that, it is on our heads.

:18:22.:18:25.

The manager and staff take the brunt, but players have to take

:18:26.:18:28.

responsibility. Start running it round.

:18:29.:18:32.

In Rugby, Northampton play the first of two make or break games in the

:18:33.:18:36.

Heineken Cup this weekend. Ospreys first on Sunday. Saints are still

:18:37.:18:40.

hoping to reach the quarter finals. The world darts championship

:18:41.:18:44.

finishes this weekend. We have two ladies still in it. 19`year`old

:18:45.:19:01.

Fallon Sherrock from Milton Keynes. And Deta Hedman. James Barrett has

:19:02.:19:09.

been to meet her. You want to put on a good performance. I do not worry

:19:10.:19:13.

about who I am playing, just play the dartboard. Meet Deta Hedman, the

:19:14.:19:20.

postie with the deadly delivery. At 54 years of age, nearly 30 years of

:19:21.:19:23.

competition, the adrenaline's still pumping. You just see the crowd, get

:19:24.:19:30.

so excited, and once your music comes on, you cannot help but dance,

:19:31.:19:36.

and give someone the hive. You see friends as you come along. Your

:19:37.:19:44.

heart is pumping. `` give someone the high`five. 1100 people will be

:19:45.:19:51.

packed in here, making a racket. If you support someone on the oche, it

:19:52.:20:00.

can be excruciating. An absolute nightmare. Excruciating. You want to

:20:01.:20:04.

do well, but you cannot guarantee it. Depending on whether she is

:20:05.:20:08.

successful, or beaten, depends on the mood for the rest of the night.

:20:09.:20:12.

The women's field has grown to 16 this year for the first time. A

:20:13.:20:16.

?12,000 cheque lies in wait for the winner. But Deta won't be feeling

:20:17.:20:19.

the strain of the increasing competition. It really is just

:20:20.:20:24.

another day. The pressure is not on me. I do have a job, this is a hobby

:20:25.:20:30.

I thoroughly enjoyed. If I did not win, or do not do well, I have a

:20:31.:20:35.

wage coming in, so no pressure, really. Deta's semifinal is

:20:36.:20:38.

tomorrow, with a possible final on Sunday. Whatever happens, it's back

:20:39.:20:44.

to work at the Royal Mail depot in Chelmsford on Monday. With the title

:20:45.:20:47.

hopefully signed, sealed and delivered.

:20:48.:20:53.

Best of luck to have. The views to all this we can's football on the

:20:54.:20:59.

BBC sport website well as coverage on BBC local radio. `` this

:21:00.:21:03.

weekend's football. Good luck to her, she is great.

:21:04.:21:11.

Now if you haven't already heard the name Sam Smith, the chances are you

:21:12.:21:14.

will soon. That's because Sam, who's from Cambridgeshire, is tipped to be

:21:15.:21:18.

one of the biggest names in British pop music. He's been named as the

:21:19.:21:22.

BBC's Sound of 2014, the singer most likely to succeed in the coming

:21:23.:21:25.

year. Previous winners include Adele and Jessie J. In a moment, we'll

:21:26.:21:28.

hear from the man himself. But first, here's Sam Smith doing what

:21:29.:21:36.

he does best. # I'm covering my ears! # # I lay by

:21:37.:21:56.

your side! # I'm latching onto you! # an amazing voice.

:21:57.:22:01.

He BBC's Sound of 2014 is decided by a range of music industry experts.

:22:02.:22:04.

When we spoke to Sam earlier, I asked him how it felt to be

:22:05.:22:08.

recognised in this way. It kind of means everything. I have been locked

:22:09.:22:11.

away in the last year writing my album, surrounded by industry

:22:12.:22:15.

people, making friends, and just to have they nod is really special.

:22:16.:22:20.

Really special. You joined quite a while of Fame, Jessie J, Adele, how

:22:21.:22:28.

does it feel to be amongst those names? It means a great deal. I was

:22:29.:22:39.

16 when I saw Adele win the Brit. But I would go mad if I thought

:22:40.:22:43.

about it too much. I saw on Twitter, you said you were an

:22:44.:22:47.

emotional wreck today. And this comes after being the critics choice

:22:48.:22:54.

for the Brits as well. An incredible few months? Gill macro editor has

:22:55.:22:56.

been incredible. The most emotional thing about it is...

:22:57.:23:05.

It has been incredible. The most emotional thing about it is the

:23:06.:23:12.

fans. My mother sending me pictures. It is crazy. Your mother is very

:23:13.:23:19.

proud, as are your friends, but looking back, going to school in

:23:20.:23:22.

Bishops Stortford, did you think at 21 you would be doing this? No, I

:23:23.:23:29.

moved to London when I was 18, worked in a bar for two years, and

:23:30.:23:33.

literally about a year and a bit ago, about two years ago, I said to

:23:34.:23:38.

myself, one more year, and if I do not do anything, I have to stop and

:23:39.:23:42.

stop I was cleaning toilets, getting so sick of it. And I had good

:23:43.:23:51.

A`levels. Thank God I stuck with it. And your first solo single is coming

:23:52.:23:56.

out next month. But I know you are interested in exploring different

:23:57.:24:01.

genres of music. Basically, what is important is, I grew up listening to

:24:02.:24:07.

massive diva voices, and an obsession in the industry with

:24:08.:24:15.

putting people in boxes, that is that person's zone, and I want to

:24:16.:24:19.

break that for men, missing the likes of George Michael, Prince,

:24:20.:24:25.

Elton John, all these people who could float in and out of genres,

:24:26.:24:31.

singing whatever I want to think. Which is what I have tried to do

:24:32.:24:36.

with these various songs that I have released. Every song has been

:24:37.:24:39.

different. That is important for me to make that point. Thank goodness

:24:40.:24:44.

you give yourself that extra year, because your single comes out next

:24:45.:24:51.

month. Yes, and my video comes out on Monday. Great to talk to you and

:24:52.:24:57.

congratulations from everyone at Look East. Thank you. What a start

:24:58.:25:03.

for 2014. Nice man. How is the weather?

:25:04.:25:07.

All right if you like it cold and crisp. A weather front at the moment

:25:08.:25:13.

moves in from the West, bringing a band rain across the country. Not a

:25:14.:25:18.

lot of rain left when it gets to us, but turning things cloudier, and

:25:19.:25:23.

over the next few hours, some patchy rain, moving eastwards through this

:25:24.:25:28.

evening. And then later tonight for the eastern half. Most of it out to

:25:29.:25:32.

sea by the end of the night. Most of us three of cost. `` free of frost.

:25:33.:25:42.

Attach a growing frost possible in rural spots. A moderate

:25:43.:25:49.

south`westerly wind as well. Into tomorrow morning, across the eastern

:25:50.:25:54.

half, it may be cloudy with rain, but essentially high pressure

:25:55.:25:58.

building, meaning we will see a day that will be cold, crisp and with

:25:59.:26:02.

long spells of sunshine, a fine winter's day. Into tomorrow, long

:26:03.:26:08.

spells of sunshine through much of the day. High temperatures of around

:26:09.:26:14.

or seven degrees. Not warm, but alike when from an north`westerly

:26:15.:26:22.

direction. `` light wind. When the sun goes down, it will get very cold

:26:23.:26:28.

indeed. Some sharp frost following for tomorrow night, quite widely

:26:29.:26:31.

temperatures dropping below freezing, so expect sharp frost,

:26:32.:26:37.

probably the sharpest we have seen this winter. The high pressure that

:26:38.:26:40.

would bring cold beer is looking like a double move to the East, a

:26:41.:26:44.

line weather that macro will bring cold beer to the East. `` cold air.

:26:45.:26:54.

Just to deal with Sunday, it looks like there will be some mist and fog

:26:55.:26:59.

forming for Saturday night, and lingering into Sunday morning. Then

:27:00.:27:04.

lifting into low`level cloud, so lots of Sunday quite cloudy and

:27:05.:27:08.

therefore cold. The left, some brighter spells. Then overnight rain

:27:09.:27:13.

moving through on Sunday night. Some heavy. Match of it out of the way by

:27:14.:27:22.

Monday, largely dry and bright, before the next weather system comes

:27:23.:27:26.

through Monday night into Tuesday, some showers around.

:27:27.:27:32.

Overall not bad. We can live with that. That is all for this evening.

:27:33.:27:35.

Have a very good weekend. Goodbye.
