Louise, thank you. That's all from the BBC | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Hello and welcome to Thursday's Look East. In the programme tonight: | :00:07. | :00:11. | |
Jailed for life. Anxiang Du will serve a minimum of | :00:12. | :00:15. | |
40 years for murdering a family of four. Today, justice has been | :00:16. | :00:26. | |
served. The murder, Anxiang Du, will spend the rest of his life in | :00:27. | :00:28. | |
prison. Idiots, not terrorists. The two men | :00:29. | :00:31. | |
at the centre of an emergency landing at Stansted Airport are | :00:32. | :00:39. | |
cleared of any wrongdoing. We will be here later, hearing about the | :00:40. | :00:43. | |
plan to create 65,000 new jobs and targeting training to prepare young | :00:44. | :00:49. | |
people for the world of work. And we meet Laura Banks, four months after | :00:50. | :00:59. | |
the transplant changed her life Good evening. | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
First tonight, a man who murdered an entire family has been told it is | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
almost inevitable he will die in prison. Anxiang Du has been jailed | :01:07. | :01:10. | |
for a minimum of 40 years for killing Jeff and Helen Ding and | :01:11. | :01:13. | |
their two daughters at their home in Northampton. In sentencing the | :01:14. | :01:17. | |
54`year`old businessman today, the judge said he was clearly carrying | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
out pre`meditated acts of revenge. Neil Bradford was in court today and | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
joins us now. Neil, it was always going to be a long sentence. | :01:25. | :01:40. | |
That's right, in case this CD is the judge has no option but to impose a | :01:41. | :01:45. | |
life sentence, and I think many people were hoping this would be one | :01:46. | :01:48. | |
of the red occasions where life really does mean life, but Judge | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
says that despite the gravity of this case he said he did not think | :01:53. | :01:57. | |
that would be appropriate. But by imposing a minimum tariff of 40 | :01:58. | :02:00. | |
years he is saying that Anxiang Du will spend the rest of his life in | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
prison. He would be eligible for parole until his 94th birthday. | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
Anxiang Du showed no emotion as the judge sentenced them. | :02:09. | :02:15. | |
Alice Ding was just 12 years old, her sister was 18. Anxiang Du | :02:16. | :02:19. | |
moderate them both, just minutes after killing parents. On the day of | :02:20. | :02:26. | |
the royal wedding two years ago he travelled to Northampton seeking | :02:27. | :02:28. | |
revenge. After losing a long`running legal dispute, he was facing | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
financial ruin. The judge said he was calm and methodical, a man on a | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
mission. Today he was jailed for life. The family have asked me to | :02:38. | :02:43. | |
see the following on their behalf. Today, justice has been served, the | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
matter Anxiang Du will spend the rest of his life in prison. No | :02:48. | :02:53. | |
sentence, however long, can ever replace our loved ones. Nothing the | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
judge could have done today would remove the pain we feel. Near where | :02:59. | :03:05. | |
the family lived, there is relief among their friends and neighbours. | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
It is closure. My daughter had months of sleepless nights, | :03:10. | :03:14. | |
psychologists getting involved, and then when we went through the trial | :03:15. | :03:20. | |
process, reading on the Internet what happened at court, it affected | :03:21. | :03:26. | |
her. Now that justice has been served she hopefully has drawn a | :03:27. | :03:30. | |
line under it and can move on with her life. Sentencing of a minimum | :03:31. | :03:37. | |
term of 40 years, the judge said that these were cold blooded | :03:38. | :03:40. | |
murderers which in my judgement were premeditated and were considered act | :03:41. | :03:44. | |
of revenge in which you wiped out the entire family of the couple | :03:45. | :03:46. | |
would you consider how rude you financially. He told Anxiang Du that | :03:47. | :03:52. | |
it was not his mental health, as he had claimed, but he could and anger | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
and a desire for revenge that motivated him to kill. | :03:58. | :04:07. | |
Helen Ding's mother and father had followed the trial, but Julie | :04:08. | :04:10. | |
translation was not necessary as they give their reaction. The | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
emotions they are suffering are the same in any language, I met with the | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
family earlier this week and it is clear what the devastating impact | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
this few weeks has had on them. They have had some harrowing and | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
distressing evidence. It is clear that they have taken straight from | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
the neighbours in the area and other members of the community. Tomorrow, | :04:34. | :04:38. | |
it will be two years and seven months exactly since the family were | :04:39. | :04:44. | |
murdered, their relatives travel back to China knowing that justice | :04:45. | :04:47. | |
has been done at last. Campaigners against plans for a toll | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
road on the A14 say they believe they're winning the argument. MPs | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
and business leaders lobbied the Transport Secretary this afternoon, | :04:56. | :04:58. | |
telling him the proposed new road to the north of Cambridge would stunt | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
the region's economy. A decision on whether or not to go ahead with the | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
scheme could be taken as early as next week. Our political | :05:08. | :05:10. | |
correspondent Andrew Sinclair is at Westminster ` and the opposition to | :05:11. | :05:13. | |
this scheme just seems to keep growing. Yes, motoring | :05:14. | :05:20. | |
organisations, local councils, hauliers, business organisations, | :05:21. | :05:26. | |
today we had MPs and business leaders from Suffolk in at the | :05:27. | :05:31. | |
Department of Transport, lobbying the Transport Secretary, telling him | :05:32. | :05:34. | |
that they believe a tall in such a vital road to the region's economy | :05:35. | :05:40. | |
was wrong. If the coal is imposed it will be damaging on the Suffolk | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
economy and of the economy of the country as a call. Some businesses | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
are talking about leading software for other counties. Well this thread | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
hangs over us. We are making headway, we are putting together a | :05:53. | :05:58. | |
very articulate ration Alan Whitehead is wrong for the Suffolk | :05:59. | :06:02. | |
economy and to remind ministers that we should not be restricting our | :06:03. | :06:09. | |
growth areas with arbitrary halls. Is the government really going to | :06:10. | :06:12. | |
change their mind? Officially we're being told nothing, | :06:13. | :06:17. | |
but the feeling among campaigners is that things are moving the way. This | :06:18. | :06:21. | |
has become a big issue, there have been meetings with the Prime | :06:22. | :06:24. | |
Minister, the Chancellor, transport managers. The issue gets raised in | :06:25. | :06:29. | |
Parliament. My experience from things like this is that if the | :06:30. | :06:34. | |
government was not going to do anything he is campaigning MPs would | :06:35. | :06:37. | |
have been taken to one side by Miller that all very quietly, please | :06:38. | :06:42. | |
pipe down. Nothing will happen. On top of that, the language from | :06:43. | :06:46. | |
ministers has changed, we are listing, we understand, we share | :06:47. | :06:51. | |
your concerns. That is what is making people think that we might | :06:52. | :06:54. | |
just be about to see some sort of change of heart, perhaps in the | :06:55. | :06:58. | |
Autumn statement, which is next week. What will that be? Erode like | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
this is such a key plank of government policy, it would be a | :07:03. | :07:05. | |
larger U`turn if they change their mind altogether but we are told the | :07:06. | :07:10. | |
economy is improving. Perhaps the Chancellor can complete the road | :07:11. | :07:15. | |
without having to impose the tall. Watch this space. | :07:16. | :07:19. | |
Two men have been cleared of threatening to blow up a plane | :07:20. | :07:22. | |
forced to land at Stansted Airport. A judge at Chelmsford Crown Court | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
has ruled there's no case to answer. Tayyab Subhani and Mohammed Safdar | :07:27. | :07:29. | |
were arrested in May after a Boeing 777 heading from Pakistan to | :07:30. | :07:32. | |
Manchester was forced to make an emergency landing. Our chief | :07:33. | :07:43. | |
reporter Kim Riley was in court It was an emergency in which no one was | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
injured, amidst a big security operation, all passengers and crew | :07:48. | :07:52. | |
were safety `` safely taken off the plane. A detailed search of the | :07:53. | :07:55. | |
aircraft revealed nothing significant. One of the suspects was | :07:56. | :08:06. | |
held in custody for 73 days. The airline did not disclose the | :08:07. | :08:08. | |
findings of their internal investigation into the incident to | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
the British authorities until ordered by the court. The | :08:13. | :08:15. | |
prosecution originally claimed that the court accused had made threats | :08:16. | :08:22. | |
to kill passengers and crew and blow up the plane. During the trial a | :08:23. | :08:26. | |
different picture emerged. One passenger, the trivial incident The | :08:27. | :08:31. | |
prosecutor said that together with the police and Crown Prosecution | :08:32. | :08:34. | |
Service would have considered whether it was appropriate to seek | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
to resist a defence application of no case to answer. In the light of | :08:39. | :08:42. | |
some of the evidence he said, and issues of disclosure, the decision | :08:43. | :08:46. | |
was made not to seek convictions in this case. The judge said that some | :08:47. | :08:51. | |
of the evidence before the Julie against the two men have been | :08:52. | :08:54. | |
tenuous and peppered with inconsistency. He instructed them to | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
return a verdict of not guilty on both men. Outside court, solicitors | :08:59. | :09:06. | |
for the parent redshirt statements. On behalf of my client, he is | :09:07. | :09:11. | |
relieved his ordeal is over. Due to the misinformation is applied to UK | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
authorities by members of the crew of the flight, the UK was put to | :09:16. | :09:20. | |
considerable expense. My client was wrongly vilified as a terrorist | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
based on this information. This is a victory for us, his loved ones and | :09:25. | :09:29. | |
those who knew he was innocent of the allegations he was facing. This | :09:30. | :09:33. | |
case has collapsed after it became clear that witnesses against them | :09:34. | :09:36. | |
had not told the truth. It is also clear that have the documents held | :09:37. | :09:42. | |
by the airline 's been disclosed to the prosecution at the outset then | :09:43. | :09:45. | |
these two men would never have had to face this protracted ordeal of a | :09:46. | :09:58. | |
crown Court trial. The defence said they were gaping holes in the | :09:59. | :10:00. | |
evidence against the two men who had endured months of stress well being | :10:01. | :10:08. | |
falsely branded as terror suspects. A specialist in airport planning has | :10:09. | :10:11. | |
been appointed to carry out an independent review of plans to | :10:12. | :10:14. | |
expand Luton airport. The move comes as a new company takes over the site | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
in a ?300 million deal. The airport's managing director says the | :10:19. | :10:21. | |
new owners Ardian, have an impressive track record in the | :10:22. | :10:29. | |
industry. The country might have emerged from | :10:30. | :10:32. | |
recession, but councils across our region are still having to cut | :10:33. | :10:35. | |
millions of pounds from their budgets. In Cambridgeshire alone, | :10:36. | :10:38. | |
the county council is trying to save ?149 million over the next five | :10:39. | :10:42. | |
years. It is on target to save 7 million in the next financial year. | :10:43. | :10:45. | |
However that means one famous attraction is in the firing line, | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
the Cromwell Museum in Huntingdon. It costs the council just ?20,0 0 a | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
year to run. Campaigners say it s a huge sacrifice for very little | :10:54. | :11:03. | |
savings. Stuart Ratcliffe reports. Cromwell's government papers, his | :11:04. | :11:08. | |
boots and even his death mask, everything from oil is here in the | :11:09. | :11:11. | |
building where he went to school, in the town where he was born. He left | :11:12. | :11:16. | |
over half his life year, his family were rooted here, Cromwell was MP | :11:17. | :11:24. | |
for Huntingdon in the late 16 2 s. But it is truly his role as a | :11:25. | :11:29. | |
national figure where he becomes most significant. The museum | :11:30. | :11:33. | |
attracts 11,000 visitors per year, and with annual running costs of | :11:34. | :11:38. | |
just ?20,000, campaigners say the museum does provide value for money. | :11:39. | :11:43. | |
Such as from abroad will spend here and may even stay here and they will | :11:44. | :11:46. | |
contribute to the local economy and none of that seems to be factored in | :11:47. | :11:52. | |
to the county council's decision about the potential closure. The | :11:53. | :11:55. | |
council says the size of the museum's grant is irrelevant, | :11:56. | :12:00. | |
savings must be found. We are clearly looking at the very small | :12:01. | :12:04. | |
figure with regard to the museum. All services are looking at small | :12:05. | :12:10. | |
sums of money and those are small sums of money at up to much larger | :12:11. | :12:16. | |
sums. It is a non`statutory service we are talking about. The statutory | :12:17. | :12:18. | |
services together with her priorities must come first. No | :12:19. | :12:23. | |
decision has been made in the council says it is now urging the | :12:24. | :12:26. | |
museum to find new finance and new ways to operate. If it does not | :12:27. | :12:30. | |
this priceless collection could be sold off at Cromwell's heritage lost | :12:31. | :12:35. | |
forever. Staff at Addenbrooke's Hospital have | :12:36. | :12:38. | |
written a letter of complaint to the University of Cambridge after it's | :12:39. | :12:41. | |
A department was inundated with a group of drunken students. It is | :12:42. | :12:44. | |
understood the group in fancy dress arrived at the hospital at around | :12:45. | :12:48. | |
6pm on Tuesday night in a drunken state and some with injuries. The | :12:49. | :12:51. | |
hospital says doctors continued to treat students until around 4am and | :12:52. | :12:54. | |
their behaviour was rude and disruptive for other patients. A | :12:55. | :12:57. | |
spokesman for the university said an investigation is underway. | :12:58. | :13:02. | |
A major route into and through the centre of Peterborough could be | :13:03. | :13:05. | |
transformed over the next year. If plans by the city council are | :13:06. | :13:08. | |
approved, Bourges Boulevard is set to become a pedestrian`friendly | :13:09. | :13:12. | |
tree`lined avenue. The work will cost ?4.5 million and could be | :13:13. | :13:17. | |
complete by next October. It will include creating two pedestrian | :13:18. | :13:20. | |
crossings and planting 30 London Plane trees. Those | :13:21. | :13:30. | |
escaped from their enclosure escaped themselves. Management say they are | :13:31. | :13:32. | |
struggling to understand how they got through the fence. | :13:33. | :13:40. | |
Still to come: The UK Snooker Championship. We speak to the world | :13:41. | :13:50. | |
number one. The extraordinary bond between a mother and daughter. Four | :13:51. | :13:53. | |
months after a transplant changed both their lives. | :13:54. | :14:04. | |
Here's the problem ` our workforce is getting older, we lose lots of | :14:05. | :14:09. | |
skilled people to jobs outside our region and training courses for | :14:10. | :14:12. | |
young people don't prepare them fully for the world of work. But | :14:13. | :14:15. | |
what is the solution? According to the New Anglia local Enterprise | :14:16. | :14:18. | |
Partnership, one solution is to get businesses, schools and colleges | :14:19. | :14:21. | |
talking to each other to make sure courses are tailored to provide the | :14:22. | :14:24. | |
right training. It wants to create 65,000 more jobs across Norfolk and | :14:25. | :14:28. | |
Suffolk by 2025, where more than 60% of the population is of working age | :14:29. | :14:32. | |
and more than a quarter of those have a degree of some kind. They | :14:33. | :14:41. | |
have been welding, bricklaying, even operating a bigger. Organised by | :14:42. | :14:49. | |
Norfolk county council, this event was designed to give students some | :14:50. | :14:54. | |
ideas and to get the firms involved with people they need for the | :14:55. | :14:59. | |
future. It is good to see the opportunities around this area. Lots | :15:00. | :15:05. | |
of stuff to look at. What advice have people been giving you? It is a | :15:06. | :15:10. | |
good thing to choose when you leave school. It can get your lot of | :15:11. | :15:16. | |
money. 1200 schoolchildren, 70 exhibitors. Among them is this man | :15:17. | :15:24. | |
who started his company 24 years ago. They made a robot for the take | :15:25. | :15:31. | |
that tour. He says it needs to be much easier for small businesses to | :15:32. | :15:38. | |
employ young people. They need to support and engage with them more. | :15:39. | :15:44. | |
The colleges and providers are not delivering what the businesses | :15:45. | :15:48. | |
need. That is the problem and today in Ipswich the start of the | :15:49. | :15:54. | |
solution. The new partnership launched what it calls a skills | :15:55. | :15:59. | |
manifesto. We need to do more to get business and educators working | :16:00. | :16:05. | |
together. That way, the educators understand that business is | :16:06. | :16:09. | |
required, businesses understand the challenges that educators face. | :16:10. | :16:13. | |
Talking to companies here, it is clear that more needs to be done | :16:14. | :16:16. | |
with youth unemployment. More help from government, more coordination, | :16:17. | :16:22. | |
less red tape. Get all that right and the future is good. This | :16:23. | :16:30. | |
afternoon, I spoke to the skills Minister Matthew Hancock. He | :16:31. | :16:34. | |
believes in better education and giving young people what he calls | :16:35. | :16:39. | |
get up and go. Is that something you can teach? You can teach those sort | :16:40. | :16:45. | |
of character traits. It is about making sure they know what it takes, | :16:46. | :16:49. | |
lots of it comes from doing work experience, making sure people know | :16:50. | :16:58. | |
what it is like in the workplace. The big complaint we are hearing is | :16:59. | :17:05. | |
there is too much red tape. I understand that concern. I was in | :17:06. | :17:10. | |
small business before I came into politics. That point was raised. We | :17:11. | :17:16. | |
have made it easier. You cannot be taken to a tribunal for two years | :17:17. | :17:22. | |
rather than one year, which helps, and we are simplifying those rules | :17:23. | :17:29. | |
by making the insurance clearer and the guidance simpler and removing | :17:30. | :17:34. | |
some of the regulations. I completely accept that there is more | :17:35. | :17:41. | |
to do, and it is my job to do it. I listen to business because I want to | :17:42. | :17:44. | |
make sure life is easier for them. Ultimately, it is small businesses | :17:45. | :17:49. | |
who create prosperity. You have been in power for three years. Why have | :17:50. | :17:58. | |
you not done it? This is a never`ending process. We have done a | :17:59. | :18:04. | |
lot. We have also made sure it is easier to comply with health and | :18:05. | :18:09. | |
safety regulations, so as long as you are not negligent you cannot be | :18:10. | :18:13. | |
done for health and safety. It is an important change that only came into | :18:14. | :18:17. | |
force six months ago. Communicating to small businesses that as long as | :18:18. | :18:20. | |
you behave reasonably you will get through, they will not hold you | :18:21. | :18:27. | |
back. You accept that business and education do not work together as | :18:28. | :18:32. | |
well as they should. How do you solve that? There is a number of | :18:33. | :18:36. | |
things you can do. The first is making sure colleges and schools | :18:37. | :18:39. | |
interact with the local business community so there is more work | :18:40. | :18:43. | |
experience, but one very direct way is through the growth of | :18:44. | :18:47. | |
apprenticeships. They are training and job. There is a series of ways | :18:48. | :18:55. | |
we can do it, and I am very keen to make sure that we do. It has | :18:56. | :19:02. | |
benefits on both sides of the fence, motivating kids in schools, making | :19:03. | :19:06. | |
sure when they leave they are ready to take on the jobs that are | :19:07. | :19:11. | |
available. Thank you. The UK Snooker Championship is underway. The | :19:12. | :19:13. | |
sport's undergone a period of radical change and it's also had to | :19:14. | :19:17. | |
deal with a match fixing scandal which led to one of the top players | :19:18. | :19:20. | |
being banned. Two players who have not let all of that spoil their form | :19:21. | :19:24. | |
are Neil Robertson and Joe Perry. They're good friends and practice | :19:25. | :19:27. | |
together in Cambridge. Tom Williams has been to meet them. A final few | :19:28. | :19:45. | |
frames. They are friends in practice and rivals in games. There are more | :19:46. | :19:54. | |
tournament, more travelling, and more opportunities, but both have | :19:55. | :19:58. | |
claimed titles, demonstrating change has not snookered them. We did at | :19:59. | :20:10. | |
the start of the season... It is probably the first time in a few | :20:11. | :20:13. | |
seasons that we have started off the season really well together. I think | :20:14. | :20:19. | |
it is great for the snooker clubs to have both of us doing really well. | :20:20. | :20:26. | |
Fully can continue. You help each other? We picked little bones out of | :20:27. | :20:33. | |
each other's stuff. I have all was been critical of his preparation but | :20:34. | :20:42. | |
this season I am learning from him. Snooker has gone a long way to | :20:43. | :20:45. | |
enhancing its appeal. Its reputation has been tarnished in the worst case | :20:46. | :20:50. | |
of corruption in the sport's history. Stephen Lee was found | :20:51. | :20:53. | |
guilty of match fixing, and given a 12 year ban. Devastated. Absolutely | :20:54. | :21:00. | |
devastated. I have done nothing wrong. They said, if you want to fix | :21:01. | :21:07. | |
matches, go against the rules of the game, you will be suspended and it | :21:08. | :21:15. | |
will cost you a career. Do you think integrity has been restored? | :21:16. | :21:21. | |
Definitely. It is showing the public that they are not going to stand for | :21:22. | :21:30. | |
it. Both players want to win. Jonathan Trott's decision to quit | :21:31. | :21:34. | |
the Ashes tour once again highlighted the strain on our top | :21:35. | :21:39. | |
sports stars. Other snooker players have battled depression. We can be | :21:40. | :21:44. | |
away for six weeks. It is tough to spend time away from your family. | :21:45. | :21:49. | |
There is no middle ground in sport. You are either really happy when you | :21:50. | :21:54. | |
win really sad when you lose. If you are missing your family, who knows | :21:55. | :22:00. | |
what is happening? Only one will pop the winning ball this week. Revamps | :22:01. | :22:05. | |
snooker hopes it will be the major winner. `` the revamped snooker. | :22:06. | :22:09. | |
Under five months ago I went to meet a mother and daughter in the centre | :22:10. | :22:12. | |
of the next story. Laura Banks badly needed a kidney transplant and her | :22:13. | :22:16. | |
mum Felicity was going to be her donor. We're pleased to report the | :22:17. | :22:20. | |
operation was a success ` now they are both looking to the future. We | :22:21. | :22:23. | |
sent Mike Cartwright back to see them. Wishing you all the best. Four | :22:24. | :22:36. | |
months after her transplant, Laura Banks is healthy, happy and here. | :22:37. | :22:41. | |
That is thanks to her mum, who brought her into this world and | :22:42. | :22:45. | |
prevented her from leaving it. To have done what she has done is | :22:46. | :22:49. | |
really amazing. Hopefully life can carry on as normal because she | :22:50. | :22:52. | |
accompanied me to the hospital with all my appointments. Hopefully | :22:53. | :22:58. | |
things can change for her as well. She will be less worried about me. | :22:59. | :23:04. | |
Laura was five when Doctors discovered kidney problems. 22 years | :23:05. | :23:08. | |
after her first transplant, she needed another. Her mother was the | :23:09. | :23:13. | |
perfect match. I remember it being a beautiful summer as I woke up, it | :23:14. | :23:20. | |
was very hot, and I was worried about getting across to the main | :23:21. | :23:28. | |
building. I was on time, and I got there, but I felt very calm, which | :23:29. | :23:35. | |
is amazing for me. And I knew that everything that I was doing was | :23:36. | :23:39. | |
right. I tried not to be too nervous. There was a lot of waiting | :23:40. | :23:48. | |
around, moments before going to theatre. I remember being quite | :23:49. | :23:53. | |
worried about those who were waiting for the news of me. Laura is looking | :23:54. | :23:59. | |
to build a life with her partner and continue to build her career back in | :24:00. | :24:03. | |
HR. I love being back in work because I enjoy my job but it also | :24:04. | :24:11. | |
means a sense of normality for me. It is lovely to see her full of | :24:12. | :24:15. | |
energy and laughing and joking. Normality, really. That is the thing | :24:16. | :24:19. | |
you forget. You lose track. You go to hospital appointments, you seem | :24:20. | :24:24. | |
to be at the hospital so much. We are free of that now. We have | :24:25. | :24:29. | |
normality in our lives. The bond between most mothers and their | :24:30. | :24:33. | |
daughters is strong. The bond is unbreakable. It is lovely to see | :24:34. | :24:40. | |
them looking well. Now the weather. unbreakable. It is lovely to see | :24:41. | :24:46. | |
them looking well. Now the If you got fed up with the cloud today the | :24:47. | :24:50. | |
good news is the weather is changing tomorrow and it will be much | :24:51. | :24:52. | |
brighter but will also feel quite a bit colder. The current situation is | :24:53. | :24:57. | |
we have quite a lot of widespread mist and fog patches forming, and if | :24:58. | :25:09. | |
anything, visibility is not great. With this blanket across us, it will | :25:10. | :25:13. | |
not get too cold tonight. Temperatures overnight anything | :25:14. | :25:15. | |
between four and seven Celsius. The wind will be south`westerly. They | :25:16. | :25:22. | |
will be coming from the north. By the end of the night, these light | :25:23. | :25:36. | |
south`westerly winds will see us with the current conditions. This | :25:37. | :25:41. | |
will bring a brisk north`westerly wind which will make it feel a lot | :25:42. | :25:45. | |
colder. At the day progresses it will be brighter. We should see some | :25:46. | :25:50. | |
sunny spells. Quite a different feel. The mist and fog will clear | :25:51. | :25:56. | |
first thing, showers will be isolated. They will affect coastal | :25:57. | :26:02. | |
parts of Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex. Sunny spells will develop into the | :26:03. | :26:05. | |
day and afternoon and it will be quite bright. Factoring in the | :26:06. | :26:11. | |
north`westerly wind, it will feel quite cold. This wind will be | :26:12. | :26:14. | |
particularly gusty around the coast. Into the afternoon, it is | :26:15. | :26:22. | |
looking largely dry. Perhaps the odd coastal shower but plenty of | :26:23. | :26:28. | |
sunshine. It will be so windy overnight that it should be free of | :26:29. | :26:35. | |
frost. This is the pressure pattern by the end of the weekend. I | :26:36. | :26:39. | |
pressure moves back in. This is what we have had for the last week. `` | :26:40. | :26:45. | |
high`pressure. By the end of the weekend it will be cloudy. We will | :26:46. | :26:48. | |
be back to the conditions we have been experiencing when wind is | :26:49. | :26:52. | |
light. Before then we have some brighter weather. For Friday and | :26:53. | :26:56. | |
Saturday expect some sunny spells, expected to the bit colder. It will | :26:57. | :27:04. | |
get lighter in the afternoon and there is a risk of frost. Cloud will | :27:05. | :27:13. | |
return on Sunday and Monday. Quick barometer check. | :27:14. | :27:19. | |
Just before we go, time to tell you about a chance to see a special | :27:20. | :27:26. | |
programme made by the BBC. The flying archaeologist who's a former | :27:27. | :27:29. | |
policeman from Cambridgeshire has helped reveal that people lived | :27:30. | :27:31. | |
around Stonehenge 5,000 years earlier than first thought. You can | :27:32. | :27:34. | |
see the full story tonight in Stonehenge: The Missing Link at 8:30 | :27:35. | :27:36. | |
on BBC Four. | :27:37. | :27:52. |
