:00:00. > :00:08.Thank you. That's all from the BBC News at Six so it's goodbye from me,
:00:09. > :00:14.In Look East tonight, the woman lucky to be alive, after driving the
:00:15. > :00:17.wrong way down the A11 at more than 50 miles an hour. Hello and welcome
:00:18. > :00:24.to the programme. Also tonight. How old is too old to be an MP? The
:00:25. > :00:29.Essex Tory planning on fighting his 10th election at the age of 77. This
:00:30. > :00:36.busy in Cambridgeshire dedicated to Oliver Cromwell is threatened with
:00:37. > :00:42.closure due to council cuts. So can a museum 100 miles away in Norfolk
:00:43. > :00:47.provide them with any tips for survival? And how the Mr and Mrs of
:00:48. > :01:00.Badminton cleaned up at the National Championships.
:01:01. > :01:04.First tonight, the frightening moment when drivers found themselves
:01:05. > :01:09.facing a car driving the wrong way down the fast lane of the A11 at 50
:01:10. > :01:17.miles an hour. The driver came off the M11 heading north on the A11.
:01:18. > :01:20.Things started to go wrong when she took the first exit at Stumps Cross.
:01:21. > :01:23.Somehow she rejoined the A11 still heading north but on the southbound
:01:24. > :01:26.carriageway. She was now going the wrong way in the outside lane
:01:27. > :01:32.heading towards Newmarket at 50 miles an hour. Cambridgeshire Police
:01:33. > :01:36.did their best to warn other drivers before setting up a road block with
:01:37. > :01:39.a number of police cars right up here, near junction 37. The woman
:01:40. > :01:47.stopped with just inches to spare. Simon Newton is on the A14 now,
:01:48. > :01:50.Simon. When you look at this rush hour traffic it does not bear
:01:51. > :01:55.thinking about what could have have moved yesterday, with this
:01:56. > :01:59.81`year`old woman driving towards Newmarket on the westbound
:02:00. > :02:02.carriageway in the fast lane for 15 miles. It was only the bravery and
:02:03. > :02:10.expertise of two police officers that what her to a halt. Sunday
:02:11. > :02:15.afternoon on the A14 near is. Just across the barrier, they spot an
:02:16. > :02:18.elderly lady doing the same, only problem, she is on the wrong
:02:19. > :02:22.carriageway, heading straight towards incoming vehicles. Porn
:02:23. > :02:30.filmed this footage from the passenger seat. Cambridgeshire
:02:31. > :02:32.police were flooded with 999 calls. These two police officers were
:02:33. > :02:39.scrambled to stop the woman before she and anyone else was injured. We
:02:40. > :02:42.managed to slow down the traffic that was heading towards us so that
:02:43. > :02:48.they were safe and protected behind us, then we caused her to stop on
:02:49. > :02:52.the A14. This is the police footage of what happened next. With the road
:02:53. > :02:56.clear and a rolling road block in place, Ian and Chris put their own
:02:57. > :03:02.car and the path of the oncoming vehicle. She was not making any
:03:03. > :03:07.attempt to slow down up until this point here. It was a fairly nervous
:03:08. > :03:10.time, to be honest. We were potentially going to deliberately
:03:11. > :03:16.crashed into her to bring her to a stop. Fortunately, she stopped and
:03:17. > :03:21.then she was about 40 centimetres from us. She was very concerned that
:03:22. > :03:26.she had been driving the wrong way, she had tried to make up tents to
:03:27. > :03:37.come off the A14 and the A11, but had been unsuccessful, and we
:03:38. > :03:40.stopped her, . The woman is 81 and from Telford in Essex. She said she
:03:41. > :03:44.tried to get off the road several times without success. Police said
:03:45. > :03:49.she was suffering from mental health problems and was later returned
:03:50. > :03:54.safely home. She will not be prosecuted. Potentially, these
:03:55. > :04:00.officers would have had to create a collision to stop this lady. It
:04:01. > :04:05.ended with everyone's sake. In 2009 five people died on the M1 when a
:04:06. > :04:11.Polish registered car had them. A road worker has been hit on the A1
:04:12. > :04:14.by abandoning the wrong way. We say this woman will not be prosecuted
:04:15. > :04:26.but the DVLA may well revoke the licence. A steel frame which killed
:04:27. > :04:30.four men in a an industrial accident collapsed like "a picnic table", an
:04:31. > :04:35.inquest has heard. The four men were working at Claxton Engineering in
:04:36. > :04:38.Great Yarmouth in 2011. Two brothers, Daniel and Tom Hazelton,
:04:39. > :04:42.died at the scene along with Peter Johnson and Adam Taylor. On a wet
:04:43. > :04:48.morning the families and friends of the men arrived, hoping for answers.
:04:49. > :04:53.Peter Johnson, the Middleton, and Tom 's brother Daniel were killed at
:04:54. > :04:59.Claxton Engineering in January 2011. A steel cage they were working on
:05:00. > :05:04.collapsed and all four men died of asphyxia due to trauma. The families
:05:05. > :05:07.hope to finally get some answers to their questions this week. It will
:05:08. > :05:11.be very emotional for them. They have waited a long time to get here
:05:12. > :05:14.and they will be hearing for the first time some of the evidence
:05:15. > :05:18.directly from those involved in the incident. The inquest jury heard
:05:19. > :05:21.that Claxton Engineering was building a high`pressure test
:05:22. > :05:26.facility which needed a concrete bench 23 metres long. The four
:05:27. > :05:30.member working in a steel cage to provide reinforcement for the
:05:31. > :05:35.concrete. Jonathan Elfyn and the red tie for the health and safety
:05:36. > :05:39.executive described how the steel frame did what he called a racking
:05:40. > :05:43.movement. It collapsed like a pic table, he said. The weight of the
:05:44. > :05:50.cage around the men was taught to be around 13 tonnes. Also giving
:05:51. > :05:55.evidence was Mark alien, the project manager for Claxton Engineering.
:05:56. > :05:58.Questioned by the coroner, he told the jury he was worried that the men
:05:59. > :06:02.were not using hard hats safety goggles. But in cross examination,
:06:03. > :06:08.the barrister representing the families raised questions about his
:06:09. > :06:12.confidence. He said, he was not a project manager at all, he was only
:06:13. > :06:14.there to liaise between the different contractors. The inquest
:06:15. > :06:22.is expected to last until the end of the week.
:06:23. > :06:27.Flood`hit villagers in Essex are worried their homes are still at
:06:28. > :06:30.risk if there's more bad weather. Several properties in Newport, near
:06:31. > :06:33.Saffron Walden, were affected when a swollen stream burst its banks.
:06:34. > :06:38.Meanwhile, Essex County Council says it's making ?1 million available to
:06:39. > :06:46.tackle flooded roads. Abbie Stewart is making sure all the valuables are
:06:47. > :06:51.safe from any more floods, even the sofas art on bricks. We cannot move
:06:52. > :06:57.them so we thought it would be best to put them up so that the water
:06:58. > :07:01.comes in the would be less damage, because the ice going to be a lot of
:07:02. > :07:09.rain coming in, but if it rises any further than it does we going to be
:07:10. > :07:18.in trouble. Everything that is vital has been cleared up, upstairs.
:07:19. > :07:24.Fingers crossed, then. Yes, exactly. We are trying to stop the flooding
:07:25. > :07:29.by putting things up with bricks. Abbey took this footage on her
:07:30. > :07:34.mobile phone on Friday when water swamped the garden. A few doors up
:07:35. > :07:38.the road, Nicola Benson looks back on the photos she took when water
:07:39. > :07:44.flooded her brand`new kitchen. Got in through the back goals and it was
:07:45. > :07:51.probably up to four inches in certain areas. And what was it like
:07:52. > :07:56.for you to see that in your new kitchen? It was soul destroying.
:07:57. > :07:59.Meanwhile, as stranded drivers continue to be rescued, the County
:08:00. > :08:04.Council is going to spend ?1 million tackling flood hit roads. We should
:08:05. > :08:09.be doing something now and that is why we have introduced this ?1
:08:10. > :08:13.million to help highways deal with any flooded areas that are hotspots,
:08:14. > :08:20.wet spots, whatever you want to call them. Back in Newport, sandbags are
:08:21. > :08:31.in place, and villagers are hoping that the forecast heavy rain does
:08:32. > :08:37.not mean more floods. Another of our long standing MPs is facing
:08:38. > :08:40.questions about his future. The Conservative Association in Saffron
:08:41. > :08:43.Waldon will decide on Thursday if Sir Alan Haselhurst will be their
:08:44. > :08:47.candidate at the next election. By then he will be 77, and facing his
:08:48. > :08:49.tenth election. For the last 36 years, Sir Alan Haselhurst has
:08:50. > :08:52.represented saffron Borden. He has been returned as its MP with
:08:53. > :08:59.ever`increasing majorities. Unlike his colleague, Tim Yeo nobody
:09:00. > :09:03.complains about him being a bad local MP. He has campaigned against
:09:04. > :09:06.a second runway at Stansted and is fighting for improvers to the West
:09:07. > :09:13.Anglia rail line. This is about his age. As you become too old to serve
:09:14. > :09:18.his constituents? Age has nothing to do with that, if he is good enough.
:09:19. > :09:22.If he serves the community I would not be at all bothered. People in
:09:23. > :09:31.their 80s can do a good job. My husband retired at 60. Why do we
:09:32. > :09:33.need a younger person? No one in the party is speaking publicly about
:09:34. > :09:38.this but I understand that one or two people in the local association
:09:39. > :09:41.are questioning whether, at the age of 76, it is time for Sir Alan
:09:42. > :09:44.Haselhurst to retire. He has told his local newspaper, I cannot deny
:09:45. > :09:59.the age I am. The age of MPs has become something
:10:00. > :10:04.of an issue at Westminster. The 2010 intake brought in a large number of
:10:05. > :10:07.young members. The Labour MP Austin Mitchell recently complained that
:10:08. > :10:12.older MPs were becoming an endangered species. At 82, the
:10:13. > :10:17.Lincolnshire MP Sir Peter Tatchell is the oldest in Parliament, but
:10:18. > :10:23.Luton's Kelvin Hopkins will be 73 at the next election and Peter Lilley
:10:24. > :10:26.will be 71. Sir Alan Haselhurst told friends he hopes his party will back
:10:27. > :10:33.him on Thursday, because he still wants to do the job and believes he
:10:34. > :10:37.has a lot to offer. Another of the Old Guard is Sir Bob Russell, the MP
:10:38. > :10:42.for Colchester. He will be 69 come the 2015 election. Earlier he told
:10:43. > :10:44.me that his age is an asset, and he outpaces people 40 years younger
:10:45. > :10:48.than him. It is almost like a professional midfield footballer who
:10:49. > :10:55.gets well into his late 30s because he paces himself. I will not say
:10:56. > :10:58.that I am the Ryan Giggs of politics, I wouldn't dream of saying
:10:59. > :11:03.that, but there is an element of comparison then, that you use your
:11:04. > :11:09.age to your best use, and you pace yourself accordingly. You are a
:11:10. > :11:14.youthful 60`something. Can you imagine still doing this job in your
:11:15. > :11:20.80s? It depends what my health is like. At the moment it is fine, I
:11:21. > :11:23.believe. We have an medical MOT at the House of Commons every other
:11:24. > :11:29.year, if you want to take it up, and I have sailed through that. And my
:11:30. > :11:33.average week is an 80 hour week. But I have got a good team around me
:11:34. > :11:38.making sure that I am in the right place at the right time, and I am
:11:39. > :11:44.fine, and it is not a problem. MPs like yourself started being an MP
:11:45. > :11:49.later, coming into the Commons at an old age. Does it worry you, the
:11:50. > :11:56.trend towards younger MPs? Heavens, yes. The three party leaders are
:11:57. > :12:01.much of a muchness. The culture of youth is not what it is all about.
:12:02. > :12:05.In China, I would we a young person, because their leaders are much
:12:06. > :12:09.older. I think you need the balance and, through the centuries, older
:12:10. > :12:14.people have tended to be the leaders. Winston Churchill was a
:12:15. > :12:18.classic, in the Second World War. Not so good as a peacetime leader
:12:19. > :12:26.but a great wartime leader. Age is very important. We're going through
:12:27. > :12:30.a spasm in British political life, where are political leaders are all
:12:31. > :12:35.young people, but there was a time and place for older people, and I am
:12:36. > :12:40.pleased to say that I am still firing on all cylinders and, for as
:12:41. > :12:43.long as my electric pushes me to continue, I will continue. `` my
:12:44. > :12:58.electorate. Still to come, our British forces
:12:59. > :13:04.ending up in `` British horses ending up in the European abattoirs?
:13:05. > :13:14.And the players from our region who triumphed at the National Badminton
:13:15. > :13:17.Championships in MK at the weekend. The future of the Oliver Cromwell
:13:18. > :13:20.Museum in Huntingdon is in doubt tonight, despite a petition with
:13:21. > :13:23.3,000 signatures being handed in to the County Council in
:13:24. > :13:26.Cambridgeshire. The Council says it can't afford to keep the museum
:13:27. > :13:30.open. But campaigners say Oliver Cromwell is a hugely significant
:13:31. > :13:33.local figure. In a moment, Kim Riley on how another local museum for
:13:34. > :13:40.another local hero is battling with similar problems. But first Emma
:13:41. > :13:45.Baugh reports. Battle lines drawn. At Naseby, Cromwell defeats the
:13:46. > :13:50.king, but now for a fight he might not win. Today, campaigners in their
:13:51. > :13:56.key battle, making the case for his museum. The problem is, we
:13:57. > :13:59.contribute to the economy of the town and area by drawing in
:14:00. > :14:04.visitors, because of the location of the museum in Huntingdon. One of the
:14:05. > :14:10.key aims of the council is to promote the local economy and that
:14:11. > :14:13.is exactly what the museum does. This hat is something Cromwell is
:14:14. > :14:18.supposed to have worn when he dismissed the Long Parliament. Set
:14:19. > :14:21.in a small space, Cromwell's all school, but it is the largest
:14:22. > :14:26.collection in the world. Most people are impressed by how much we have,
:14:27. > :14:30.and not just how much but the quality of it, so some of the
:14:31. > :14:38.objects here are pieces which were almost certainly gifts of Cromwell
:14:39. > :14:42.when he was Lord protector, and true international importance. When was
:14:43. > :14:51.the last time you went to the museum? Never. I don't know where it
:14:52. > :14:57.is. It is behind you. Is it? I went 20 years ago. I know that it is in
:14:58. > :14:59.danger, isn't it, of closing? The County Council have given a
:15:00. > :15:03.statement saying that they welcome the petition and will assess it at
:15:04. > :15:08.their full council meeting. They say that they will continue to work with
:15:09. > :15:13.brains of the museum about the alternative management of it and
:15:14. > :15:19.hope that the interest shown locally will help them to achieve that goal.
:15:20. > :15:22.Closing the museum will save the council ?20,000 per year, but
:15:23. > :15:31.campaigners say that the collection could then be broken up for ever. So
:15:32. > :15:39.how do you turn a local museum around? Last year the Nelson Museum
:15:40. > :15:42.in Great Yarmouth found itself in a very similar situation. They did get
:15:43. > :15:45.a bail out from the local council but with strings very much attached.
:15:46. > :15:48.Here's our Chief Reporter Kim Riley. The museum dedicated to Norfolk's
:15:49. > :15:50.local hero almost went under after building up losses of thousands of
:15:51. > :15:54.pounds a year, but unlike Huntingdon, after a plea to the
:15:55. > :15:58.local Borough Council, it agreed to underwrite losses for five years,
:15:59. > :16:03.but the museum must then be able to pay its way. It easier stick team of
:16:04. > :16:07.volunteers have been working on a major revamp, aimed at attracting
:16:08. > :16:17.more visitors, with a new cafe and shop, and the focus on Nelson's
:16:18. > :16:23.scandalous love life. He was a very popular chap. He was England's first
:16:24. > :16:30.big celebrity. He was bigger than David Beckham. He was hugely famous
:16:31. > :16:36.internationally. There are monuments all round the world to him, just
:16:37. > :16:44.where he disembarked from a ship. He is the great man himself, sitting at
:16:45. > :16:49.a table in his cabin during the Battle of the Nile. It is rather an
:16:50. > :16:56.incredible likeness. His eyes for you around as you walk around the
:16:57. > :17:02.table. This is the bicorn hat, replica of the one that he used to
:17:03. > :17:13.wear. You're probably thinking that he can carry it off, but I can't.
:17:14. > :17:19.Volunteer Kerry Robinson helped win the new pledge from the council. We
:17:20. > :17:23.felt that this place needed to stay here, it is part of the heritage of
:17:24. > :17:29.Yarmouth, and the council are very receptive to that. We're saying to
:17:30. > :17:34.people, come and support the Nelson Museum. There is plenty for
:17:35. > :17:40.children, a flavour of life below decks, and a chance to walk the
:17:41. > :17:45.plank. In the rise of the volunteers, he was a Norfolk man
:17:46. > :17:53.through and through. `` the words of the volunteers. A year after the
:17:54. > :17:57.horse meat scandal, a charity in Norfolk says horses and ponies from
:17:58. > :18:01.the UK may still be ending up illegally in abattoirs in Europe.
:18:02. > :18:04.World Horse Welfare has spent months investigating whether a policy which
:18:05. > :18:06.allows some horses to be exported easily is being abused. David
:18:07. > :18:09.Whiteley followed their investigation for Inside Out. It is
:18:10. > :18:12.one year since the horse meat scandal broke. The summit was a
:18:13. > :18:16.shock that an animal which in this country is seen as a companion could
:18:17. > :18:21.end up in our food. We have discovered this murky trade in low
:18:22. > :18:26.value equines across Europe. It is not only a matter for equine
:18:27. > :18:30.welfare, it is a huge problem for equine health, and as you will see
:18:31. > :18:36.in relation to the food industry, it is an issue for human health, as
:18:37. > :18:41.well. It is August and over a weekend period at Dover, there are
:18:42. > :18:47.horses and ponies being taken to the continent on the ferries, being
:18:48. > :18:52.watched by a Norfolk charity. That one at has just come through... The
:18:53. > :18:54.charity World Horse Welfare has spent months trying to get to the
:18:55. > :18:57.bottom of what happens to be is horses once they are shipped abroad.
:18:58. > :19:04.Under an agreement with France, Ireland and the UK, sports horses
:19:05. > :19:09.can be moved freely. Low value ponies like this are certainly not
:19:10. > :19:12.covered by the agreement. World Horse Welfare believes some traders
:19:13. > :19:18.are abusing the law and exporting ponies and avoiding health, welfare
:19:19. > :19:21.cheques and other paperwork. At the time of the horse meat scandal, the
:19:22. > :19:25.Government said there was no evidence of horses and ponies being
:19:26. > :19:30.transported abroad for human consumption and, if there was, then
:19:31. > :19:33.surveillance at ports would pick this up, but this investigation has
:19:34. > :19:36.found that in most cases, these checks are not happening. The
:19:37. > :19:40.charity believes that live horses are being taken to the continent
:19:41. > :19:45.without any health checks or even the basic standards of welfare, and
:19:46. > :19:50.that this is going on under the radar. Animal health officers can
:19:51. > :19:54.and will undertake stringent checks at ports, where there are good
:19:55. > :19:59.grounds to believe that those being breached, which may represent a risk
:20:00. > :20:01.to the health and welfare of horses. Defra says it is tightening up the
:20:02. > :20:19.rules on horse exports from May. You can see the full story in Inside
:20:20. > :20:21.Out at 7:30pm on BBC One. The last time Norwich played Manchester City
:20:22. > :20:24.there were seven goals, and Manchester City got all of them.
:20:25. > :20:28.Many predicted a similar scoreline in the return game at Carrow Road on
:20:29. > :20:31.Saturday. But this time it ended goalless. The Norwich manager Chris
:20:32. > :20:36.Hughton hailed his team's "spirited performance" but said he felt they
:20:37. > :20:40.could have sneaked all three points. A really important point for
:20:41. > :20:46.Norwich, and unlike the and improbable point. But not
:20:47. > :20:51.undeserved, arguably, a game they could have one, against one of the
:20:52. > :20:53.most expensively assembled teams in the world, Norwich proved that a
:20:54. > :20:58.little spirit and determination can match players with heightened
:20:59. > :21:03.reputations and lofty ambitions. They carved out better chances, with
:21:04. > :21:08.Nathan Redmond and then Gary Hooper, whose effort was ruled out. In the
:21:09. > :21:15.closing minutes, Ricky Van Wolfswinkel just needed a touch, and
:21:16. > :21:18.Pilkington, little composure. After a seven ` zero defeat at the Etihad
:21:19. > :21:22.Stadium in November, this was an unexpected point, but it could be
:21:23. > :21:27.all important at the end of the season. It was a brilliant
:21:28. > :21:30.performance Monday stifled Manchester City, and did not let
:21:31. > :21:37.them play. It could be a turning point. It will get the fans back
:21:38. > :21:43.little bit. Did the manager need that performance and result? He
:21:44. > :21:48.probably needs a result every week. He's under a lot of pressure. A big
:21:49. > :21:51.game coming up against West Ham, fans are nervous about that. That
:21:52. > :21:54.will be much more potent to survival. Norwich in fact fell one
:21:55. > :22:02.place in the league, making tomorrow's trip to West Ham, not
:22:03. > :22:06.just above them, vital. We had some good opportunities to score, and
:22:07. > :22:11.certainly had far more in the Cardiff game away from home, so it
:22:12. > :22:17.is most definitely an endeavour from us to try and score. We have just
:22:18. > :22:22.got to find the right formula. 19 goals in 25 games, not a recipe for
:22:23. > :22:32.success also vital. It is up to him to find the winning ingredient. ``
:22:33. > :22:35.success or survival. The best badminton players in England battled
:22:36. > :22:39.it out for the crown of national champions this weekend and for the
:22:40. > :22:43.first time it was being held in Milton Keynes. There were five
:22:44. > :22:55.honours up for grabs. And three of the five were won by a married
:22:56. > :22:58.couple, Gabby and Chris Adcock. With top names and national titles at
:22:59. > :23:04.stake, the rallies were long, until someone blinked. Gabby Adcock
:23:05. > :23:08.completed her first bit of business firing Lawrence with the success
:23:09. > :23:13.with a fifth straight win in the event. Very happy that we won that
:23:14. > :23:18.match. It was my fifth title, so I wanted to really get it, and we
:23:19. > :23:27.played well in the first set. The game started well. Up next, her
:23:28. > :23:32.husband Chris, partnering Andrew Ellis. The world 's fastest racket
:23:33. > :23:36.sport showing is more delicate side. The competition was being staged at
:23:37. > :23:46.the first time in Northern Keynes, in the arena at Ashton Stadium MK. I
:23:47. > :23:53.am very pleased. This was a tough opponent. I trained with her for
:23:54. > :23:56.four years. So it was quite tough. Walker and the English team`mates
:23:57. > :24:01.have left Switzerland to take part in the European team Championships.
:24:02. > :24:06.Also on the plane, another MK resident, winning his seventh
:24:07. > :24:11.straight title, swatting away the challenge against Sarah Parsons.
:24:12. > :24:19.Hopefully in a couple of years time, we can show the same form.
:24:20. > :24:25.Gabby and Chris Adcock reclaimed the mixed doubles title they lost last
:24:26. > :24:31.year. I thought we were in control for much of the game. They are good
:24:32. > :24:34.players, number 16 in the world from a reason, but we played our game and
:24:35. > :24:40.dealt with what they brought us quite well. Gabby and Chris Adcock
:24:41. > :24:43.remain Badminton's top couple. They hope that you thousand and 14 will
:24:44. > :24:48.be a special year. It certainly started well. `` 2014.
:24:49. > :25:02.Lots to talk about. We had a band of showers moving up into the North
:25:03. > :25:06.Sea, and this band moving in behind, producing thundery downpours over
:25:07. > :25:12.the next few hours. Behind it, dry and clear, and underneath these
:25:13. > :25:18.clear skies temperatures fallen to around two Celsis, and in rural
:25:19. > :25:27.spots, down to around freezing, so there could be forced and icing
:25:28. > :25:32.places. `` frost and ice. Tomorrow, a wet `` weather front pushing in
:25:33. > :25:41.from the west bringing wet and windy weather. This rain is likely to be
:25:42. > :25:44.heavy at times. Given on by fresh to strong southerly winds, perhaps gale
:25:45. > :25:49.force at times around the coast. That should clear by 2pm, with the
:25:50. > :25:54.winds easing, but it will still feel blustery, and chilly with high
:25:55. > :26:00.temperatures of six Celsius. If anything, through the afternoon, it
:26:01. > :26:06.will be called behind, then we have some showers. Especially through the
:26:07. > :26:10.evening and overnight, some of these showers could fall as snow, giving a
:26:11. > :26:15.covering of two centimetres in places. It will not be for
:26:16. > :26:19.everybody, some of it will fall as rain, but there is definitely the
:26:20. > :26:26.chance of a couple of centimetres of snow in places. Heading into wet, we
:26:27. > :26:29.start to see milder air coming in. A dry start with a moderate to fresh
:26:30. > :26:33.south`west of wind, picking up through the morning, to a strong
:26:34. > :26:39.southerly, and then we see rain pushing in around mid`morning, and
:26:40. > :26:44.again some of that will be on the heavy side. Wet and windy during
:26:45. > :26:47.Wednesday, then on Thursday, a blustery south`westerly wind with a
:26:48. > :26:53.scattering of showers. And on Friday we do it all again, by mid`morning,
:26:54. > :26:58.another system bringing in more heavy rain and those south`westerly
:26:59. > :27:05.winds again picking up, reaching gale force at times round the coast.
:27:06. > :27:11.Between now and the end of Friday, up to two inches of rain, not great
:27:12. > :27:16.news with the saturated ground we have got. And some cold nights, two,
:27:17. > :27:19.we could see some frost and sheltered spots.
