Independence Hello and welcome to Look East. In

:00:00.:00:11.

the programme tonight, the fight to keep vulnerable teenagers safe from

:00:12.:00:12.

sexual predators, how yesterday s keep vulnerable teenagers safe from

:00:13.:00:15.

sexual predators, how yesterday s conviction of a pita bread gang is

:00:16.:00:16.

just the start. Extending the M11, just the start. Extending the M 1,

:00:17.:00:21.

there is a plan to take it onto the Humber, but how realistic is that?

:00:22.:00:26.

We will be here later in the programme, Saint or sinner?

:00:27.:00:29.

Dylan Hartley on grabbing his last chance. And she liked it so much she

:00:30.:00:35.

bought the pub, and the Ivory Coast to East Anglia.

:00:36.:00:37.

`` from the Ivory Coast. First tonight, the fight to protect

:00:38.:00:47.

vulnerable children from sexual predators. Last night on Look East

:00:48.:00:52.

we reported on the sentencing of five people aged between 33 and 14

:00:53.:00:55.

who sexually abused five girls from Peterborough. It was the result of

:00:56.:01:00.

the authorities specifically targeting this type of offence. But

:01:01.:01:11.

experts say more needs to be done, as Louise Hubball reports.

:01:12.:01:29.

Five members of a gang who raped and abused vulnerable young girls have

:01:30.:01:35.

been jailed. The court heard the girls were seen as easy meat, sexual

:01:36.:01:39.

playthings. And all this happened here in Peterborough. What do

:01:40.:01:46.

shoppers here think? Shocking. Really shocking, that this is

:01:47.:01:51.

happening in Peterborough. It is disgusting. What can you say? I have

:01:52.:01:58.

a sister, if it happened to her, it a sister, if it happened to her, it

:01:59.:02:02.

would rate my heart. It is horrible to think that there is people like

:02:03.:02:04.

that walking about. One of the social workers supporting the girls

:02:05.:02:07.

agreed to talk to me. We've concealed her identity to protect

:02:08.:02:09.

the young people she works with. concealed her identity to protect

:02:10.:02:12.

the young people she works with How the young people she works with How

:02:13.:02:14.

important was the sentencing for the girls? Although the criminal process

:02:15.:02:18.

has come to an end, it's the start of the girls being able to live with

:02:19.:02:22.

what has happened to them. They were all pleased to know what the outcome

:02:23.:02:25.

was. The biggest milestone was giving their evidence. We have

:02:26.:02:28.

spoken about the impact on the girls, but how do you cope with

:02:29.:02:31.

listening to what they are telling you? It's really difficult. There

:02:32.:02:37.

are days when I drive home in the car and I'd be in tears, just

:02:38.:02:41.

thinking about what I'd heard and what the girls had said during the

:02:42.:02:45.

day. But you have to stay strong for them. They need to know they can

:02:46.:02:49.

rely on you to be there for them. This video is shown to young people

:02:50.:02:53.

at risk of sexual exploitation. Prevention is now key. And so is the

:02:54.:02:59.

need for youngsters at risk to talk. One of the most basic tools this

:03:00.:03:07.

charity uses is jewellery making. If you are making something, you can

:03:08.:03:11.

talk without having to make eye contact with your worker. And it

:03:12.:03:16.

increases confidence to talk about the things that have happened to

:03:17.:03:20.

you. Sometimes, these young people are very angry, and you commercially

:03:21.:03:26.

for all of this out and explain your feelings and discuss your feelings.

:03:27.:03:28.

And of course, yesterday, five abusers were jailed precisely

:03:29.:03:31.

because young girls had the strength to discuss their feelings.

:03:32.:03:38.

Well, earlier I spoke to Professor Jenny Pearce from the University of

:03:39.:03:41.

Bedfordshire, and asked her how widespread this kind of crime is.

:03:42.:03:51.

The office of the children's commission produced a report last

:03:52.:03:56.

year that said we know for sure that over 2000 young people are being

:03:57.:03:59.

sexually exploited by gangs and groups. That isn't under

:04:00.:04:03.

representation of the numbers, because young people do not report.

:04:04.:04:10.

In our research, only one in 12 in gang affected neighbourhoods said

:04:11.:04:12.

they would tell anybody about the sexual violence. They have no

:04:13.:04:16.

confidence that those they tell will be able to make any difference or do

:04:17.:04:22.

something about it. Until we improve the responses to young people who

:04:23.:04:25.

tell us about sexual violence, we will continue to have an

:04:26.:04:29.

underreporting of the amount and the scale. We know that in Peterborough,

:04:30.:04:34.

this was a proactive response by the police and social services, but what

:04:35.:04:38.

can professional wadis elsewhere do to try and better identify those at

:04:39.:04:44.

risk? What we do know is that young people who experience sexual

:04:45.:04:48.

violence, for example in the research we did, 41% of 188 young

:04:49.:04:55.

people talked about experiences of individual rape. 34% talked about

:04:56.:05:02.

multiple rape. If young people are experiencing social violence, they

:05:03.:05:04.

may be going to health professionals, sexual health

:05:05.:05:09.

clinics. Fashion is right across the board, not only child protection,

:05:10.:05:14.

need to get much better at identifying the signs and indicators

:05:15.:05:16.

of abuse, and share information between them about the experiences

:05:17.:05:22.

young people are telling them off. What are the main failings in the

:05:23.:05:28.

child protection system? We have examples of really good practice

:05:29.:05:32.

where police and children's protection workers are working

:05:33.:05:35.

together, that is where we get these prosecutions and that is where young

:05:36.:05:40.

people have confidence to talk. What needs to happen in child protection

:05:41.:05:43.

is that rather than see child protection as something that is only

:05:44.:05:45.

relevant for young children within the home experiencing the Malee

:05:46.:05:52.

abuse, `` familial, we needed to engage with teenager, that is a very

:05:53.:05:56.

different form of child protection. It means going out to whether young

:05:57.:05:59.

people are and recognising that a lot of them will not want to talk.

:06:00.:06:04.

So we need to get better at making sure child protection systems reach

:06:05.:06:06.

out into schools, into the areas where young people are, and improve

:06:07.:06:11.

the way they share that information between them.

:06:12.:06:13.

The partner of a man stabbed to death in his own home has told a

:06:14.:06:17.

court today how she pleaded with his assailants to leave him alone.

:06:18.:06:20.

Sharif Demirsay was attacked in the hallway of his home in Kempston last

:06:21.:06:24.

May. Neil Bradford spent the day at Luton Crown Court and joins me now.

:06:25.:06:32.

The court has heard how six to nine`year`old `` how a six to

:06:33.:06:37.

nine`year`old was left traumatised by the attack on her partner. They

:06:38.:06:42.

had been together for more than 20 years. `` a 69`year`old. She gave

:06:43.:06:48.

evidence from behind a screen. She broke down at various points as she

:06:49.:06:51.

went into detail about the attack on Sharif Demirsay at the home they

:06:52.:06:56.

shared in Kempston in Bedfordshire last May. She said it was later

:06:57.:07:01.

tonight on the 14th of May, when there was a loud knock at the door

:07:02.:07:07.

of their bungalow. Three young men, all wearing hooded tops, burst in,

:07:08.:07:13.

demanding cash and gold. She said they were armed with knives, and

:07:14.:07:16.

they began stabbing her partner She said, he put the knife everywhere.

:07:17.:07:22.

The courts and forwards. Blood came out from everywhere, she said. The

:07:23.:07:28.

prosecution say the attack on Sharif Demirsay was vicious and sustained,

:07:29.:07:31.

but it only lasted a matter of minutes. Today, we got a sense of

:07:32.:07:35.

just how long those few minutes must have felt to Sharif Demirsay's

:07:36.:07:41.

partner. She was also injured in the attack and required surgery at she

:07:42.:07:47.

tried to fend off the attackers. She described how she was stabbed

:07:48.:07:51.

through the arm. She said she tried to fend them off by hitting one of

:07:52.:07:56.

them over the head with a metal attachment from her vacuum cleaner.

:07:57.:07:59.

She told the court, he pushed me, I felt the floor. He said, where's

:08:00.:08:05.

your money and where is your gold? I said, take the money, take the cold,

:08:06.:08:11.

leave Sharif alone. `` take the gold. She said, they continued to

:08:12.:08:16.

stab him, even as he was on the floor. He was kicked and has hands

:08:17.:08:19.

were beaten with a metal pole. She said one of the attackers was even

:08:20.:08:23.

shouting, kill him, kill him, kill and! The accused all deny murder.

:08:24.:08:35.

The trial at Luton Crown Court is expected to last six weeks.

:08:36.:08:43.

The Government has floated the idea of extending the M11 motorway north

:08:44.:08:46.

from Cambridge. It's one of the ideas being considered for the next

:08:47.:08:50.

round of funding, which would start in 2020. Under the new scheme, the

:08:51.:08:54.

new road would run all the way up to Hull.

:08:55.:08:58.

Dennis Jones knows almost every road in and out of East End where. The

:08:59.:09:02.

nearer he is to motorway, the less stressed he is. The worst bit of my

:09:03.:09:10.

job is the A17. It would probably say was a good 45 minutes just to

:09:11.:09:19.

get to Newark. Ayes his boss runs 23 trucks on tight margins. For him,

:09:20.:09:22.

and extension cannot come soon enough to stop it could make a

:09:23.:09:29.

significant difference. Any movement in the road system where we can get

:09:30.:09:36.

onto dual carriageway or motorways, that improves our fuel economy and

:09:37.:09:41.

our journey times. The current 5 mile Stretch from London stops just

:09:42.:09:44.

north of Cambridge. Extended it could see it run through the fans

:09:45.:09:49.

into Lincolnshire and all the way up to the Humber Bridge. But it is only

:09:50.:09:53.

one idea in the plans for the next round of road funding, starting in

:09:54.:09:57.

2020. It is early days and nothing has been confirmed. The idea was

:09:58.:10:04.

around when very young looking Ken Clarke first opened the M11, but

:10:05.:10:08.

extending it was put on hold. Now it is back in the frame. Some say it

:10:09.:10:13.

will be a lifeline to Norfolk and Cambridge's economy. I think it will

:10:14.:10:19.

be great. It is a perfect opportunity to improve the economy

:10:20.:10:23.

of East Anglia. It would cost Williams of pounds and others say

:10:24.:10:26.

the money would be better spent on local roads. `` billions of pounds.

:10:27.:10:33.

We ought to concentrate on upgrading the roads. Aside from the local

:10:34.:10:38.

debate about the benefits or otherwise of a brand`new motorway,

:10:39.:10:42.

those who study Government policy and road spending say it is highly

:10:43.:10:47.

unlikely that an M11 extension will ever be built. I think this scheme

:10:48.:10:52.

is probably Dreamland, it is a scheme that many would argue is

:10:53.:10:57.

essential, but equally, there are other priorities, with the existing

:10:58.:11:00.

network that needs upgrading. So that need sorting out first. This

:11:01.:11:05.

scheme may be in a few years time, it might get more of a hearing. The

:11:06.:11:08.

new M11 debate is just underway but new M11 debate is just underway but

:11:09.:11:12.

on one point, all agree. The local routes must be upgraded before they

:11:13.:11:18.

can feed into any new motorway. It's been confirmed today that the

:11:19.:11:21.

body recovered from the River Ouzel in Layton Buzzard as that of the

:11:22.:11:25.

missing man Neil Devlin. The body was discovered on Monday. The

:11:26.:11:28.

36`year`old was last seen on New Year's Day. Extensive searches

:11:29.:11:35.

followed to try to find him. His route home would have been close to

:11:36.:11:44.

the river. An inquest will be held. Later, Alex has all the weather

:11:45.:11:46.

details, but first, broke out early this morning. Crews

:11:47.:11:47.

had to use a digger to create a firebreak. The woodchip pile

:11:48.:11:48.

measured 50 metres by 30 metres. Also coming up:

:11:49.:12:02.

Could you name your Police and Crime Commissioner? Is the new system

:12:03.:12:06.

really working? Also, from 2014 to 1914, a look

:12:07.:12:13.

ahead to look back at the impact of the First World War had on this

:12:14.:12:16.

region. The Six Nations returns tomorrow

:12:17.:12:19.

with England taking on Ireland at Twickenham. But who should be

:12:20.:12:23.

England's hooker? The contenders are both from this

:12:24.:12:26.

region. It's Northampton's bad boy Dylan Hartley versus Tom Youngs, the

:12:27.:12:30.

Norfolk lad who made the grade with the British Lions. James Burridge

:12:31.:12:34.

reports from the England training camp.

:12:35.:12:42.

COMMENTATOR: England make changes. Hartley comes on for Young's.

:12:43.:12:50.

Norfolk's Tom Youngs and another player are battling for one jersey

:12:51.:12:54.

between now and the Rugby World Cup in 2015. The seesaw of form and

:12:55.:12:58.

favour is as clear as ever. Hartley, frankly, is lucky to beat. Last May

:12:59.:13:04.

another moment of madness cost him a Premiership trophy and a Lions

:13:05.:13:09.

jersey. Tom Youngs to be his chance and the glory in a string.

:13:10.:13:13.

Hartley's list of indiscretions, the biting and gouging, was mounting.

:13:14.:13:18.

When the call came from the England head coach, he feared the worst.

:13:19.:13:23.

Instead, they met over a pint in a Northampton prop. He was given one

:13:24.:13:26.

last chance. It shows how quickly things can turn on its head and I am

:13:27.:13:33.

very realistic that you are only one game away from, you know, being back

:13:34.:13:36.

on the bench or, you know, until form. Or, in my case in the past,

:13:37.:13:44.

with a ban or something like that. And you're grateful that you have,

:13:45.:13:47.

like Stewart Lancaster giving you the chance? Yes and obviously Jim at

:13:48.:13:56.

the club. But, you know, I am on a chance here and I like to think I am

:13:57.:14:00.

repaying some of that faith shown in me. Hartley is back in favour partly

:14:01.:14:06.

because of his consistency. Take the line`out for instance. He has thrown

:14:07.:14:10.

30 times in this year's Six Nations. It has gone wrong just once. Youngs

:14:11.:14:14.

is now the one having to sit and stew. Dylan, for me, his errant the

:14:15.:14:22.

short at the moment. Youngs is desperate to get it back. Tom

:14:23.:14:25.

recognises that Dylan is playing well and will please the porting

:14:26.:14:30.

role from the bench. It is a great position to be in as a national

:14:31.:14:33.

coach to have two players fighting for the shirt. Tom Hall after week

:14:34.:14:37.

for the opportunity when he gets the chance to come on to show what he

:14:38.:14:41.

can do and through injury, form or whatever, he will get the chance

:14:42.:14:45.

again. I have no doubt that when he gets his shot, he will play well. It

:14:46.:14:49.

is nice to know that I have waited a year and I'm getting my shop.

:14:50.:14:53.

Hartley has been on trial and have had his fair share of two relations.

:14:54.:14:57.

He has channelled the intensity and it is serving him well. With terrier

:14:58.:15:01.

like Tom snapping at his heels, it is serving England also.

:15:02.:15:05.

Police and Crime Commissioners across the country have been in the

:15:06.:15:08.

firing line today over a concern they are not talking to the public

:15:09.:15:13.

enough. The first PCCs were elected in November 2012 when only 15% of

:15:14.:15:18.

people turned out to vote. The latest figures concern the

:15:19.:15:21.

police and crime panels, which were set up to hold the commissioners to

:15:22.:15:25.

count. Across the country, BBC News found that only 52 questions have

:15:26.:15:29.

been asked by members of the public at the 280 meetings held so far. In

:15:30.:15:35.

our region, no questions at all had been asked in Bedfordshire, Norfolk

:15:36.:15:39.

or the Thames Valley. In Suffolk, it was just three questions. So what's

:15:40.:15:44.

going on? Earlier today, I asked Tim Passmore, the Suffolk Commissioner,

:15:45.:15:47.

if the figures showed people just weren't engaging with the new

:15:48.:15:56.

system. I do not agree with that. That is one small part of the

:15:57.:16:00.

engagement. If you look at the public engagement sessions we have

:16:01.:16:02.

right across Suffolk, I can assure you that we have had hundreds of

:16:03.:16:06.

questions on our district and panels. I think you're referring to

:16:07.:16:13.

the Police and Crime Panel. They are organised by the County Council. I

:16:14.:16:18.

would like to reassure the list is that the last panel, I was

:16:19.:16:20.

questioned relentlessly for two and a half hours! You must remember that

:16:21.:16:25.

the members of the panel are there to represent the public. I think we

:16:26.:16:29.

are not quite hitting the right target that we see `` when we say

:16:30.:16:32.

there are no questions from the public. How can you convince people

:16:33.:16:35.

that this system is better than what we had before? It is certainly

:16:36.:16:41.

cheaper. It is certainly in Suffolk making for much quicker

:16:42.:16:45.

decision`making. Without being disrespectful to the old police

:16:46.:16:47.

authority, nobody had any idea who they were whatsoever. All I can say

:16:48.:16:51.

is that the huge number of public meetings I go to, I have one tonight

:16:52.:16:56.

and last Wednesday and three more next week, the number of questions

:16:57.:17:00.

and awareness is rising rapidly. We are doing our best with things like

:17:01.:17:04.

social media and Twitter. The website, e`mails, letters. Another

:17:05.:17:08.

statistic you may be interested in, in the first year, we had over 1000

:17:09.:17:12.

e`mails and letters sent directly to me. The police authority in its last

:17:13.:17:18.

year did not even have 50. We are on an upward trend and have a lot of to

:17:19.:17:22.

do. I am not complacent but we are getting there. Labour says the

:17:23.:17:25.

system is not working. It wants a reformed. Do you think we have

:17:26.:17:29.

another Labour Government that our jobs will be abolished? If you talk

:17:30.:17:34.

to some of the other commissioners, and there are some good people but

:17:35.:17:37.

our labour commissioners, the wind of change is blowing through the

:17:38.:17:41.

Labour Party. They realise that our job is about trust and

:17:42.:17:45.

accountability. Policing spends 12 volume pounds per year throughout

:17:46.:17:51.

the UK. What we need is a system for that accountability and

:17:52.:17:53.

transparency. `` ?12 billion. There have been some difficulties

:17:54.:17:57.

nationally in the last year. Part of the role of these commissions is to

:17:58.:18:04.

build trust and confidence in a good and important public service.

:18:05.:18:08.

All next week in Look East, we're looking at how people in this region

:18:09.:18:11.

were affected by the First World War. We'll be starting to tell 100

:18:12.:18:15.

stories selected to mark 100 years since the outbreak of World War One

:18:16.:18:19.

in 1914. A taster now from Shaun Peel.

:18:20.:18:32.

We begin the week in the trenches as we try to get a sense of the horrors

:18:33.:18:38.

of battle on the Western fronts. The sheer misery of the war they said

:18:39.:18:44.

would be over by Christmas. We take you back to a time when life

:18:45.:18:48.

expectancy for men was 52 and when the school leaving age was 12. But

:18:49.:18:54.

there were many ten`year`old who actually had jobs and it was very

:18:55.:18:57.

unusual for many children to go on to secondary school. We also find

:18:58.:19:02.

out how our region bore the brunt of the German Zeppelin attacks, as

:19:03.:19:07.

bombs rained down from the skies over Britain for the first time

:19:08.:19:10.

ever. This is Zeppelin crashed in the fields of Essex. All of the

:19:11.:19:16.

campers got burned and just left a bit of the piece of the relics, you

:19:17.:19:24.

see. That is aluminium for lightness. As the war raged, we find

:19:25.:19:28.

out how the shoemaking factories in Northamptonshire rose to the

:19:29.:19:31.

challenge of producing 50 million boots for the Allies. If attack from

:19:32.:19:37.

ships in the skies were not enough, what about the ships of the seas?

:19:38.:19:41.

The devastation wreaked upon Lowestoft as German vessels fired

:19:42.:19:47.

bombs on the Suffolk town. They realised what was happening and

:19:48.:19:51.

shouted bombardment, all downstairs now, as you are. Also, the Reverend

:19:52.:19:58.

Richard calls on Bernard van, the only ordained priest to win a

:19:59.:20:01.

Victoria Cross as a serving officer in the British Army. How could a man

:20:02.:20:09.

of God become a man of war? Van is actually killing. He at this point

:20:10.:20:14.

becomes a killing machine. On Friday, the tragedy of the 100 lost

:20:15.:20:19.

boys from a Norfolk school and headmaster who was said to have died

:20:20.:20:23.

from a broken heart. For him particularly, the war was utterly

:20:24.:20:28.

shattering. Extraordinary stories from the war they said would end all

:20:29.:20:34.

wars. World War I at home, all next one on BBC Look East and BBC local

:20:35.:20:40.

radio. And you're going to be in the

:20:41.:20:44.

trenches on Monday night but not the real trenches?

:20:45.:20:48.

Thank goodness for that. They're actually in Suffolk and used in a

:20:49.:20:52.

lot of film sets. You will have seen them in television programmes and

:20:53.:20:57.

movies. I have only seen the photographs but they look very wet

:20:58.:21:00.

and very uncomfortable and it is incredible to think that people

:21:01.:21:04.

spend weeks and months it is going to be fascinating.

:21:05.:21:07.

So that is the series that we will start on Monday, as Susie said. I

:21:08.:21:11.

shall be in the trenches in Suffolk. And our radio stations will also be

:21:12.:21:15.

looking at the First World War next week. Every morning, every breakfast

:21:16.:21:17.

show at 8.15. Now we often hear that the pub trade

:21:18.:21:22.

is having a really tough time at the moment. Around 20 pubs in Britain

:21:23.:21:25.

close every week. But not everybody has been put off. Eunice Wortley

:21:26.:21:28.

comes from the Ivory Coast and when she walked into The Crown at

:21:29.:21:32.

Smallburgh in Norfolk, she just knew she had to buy it. This from Mike

:21:33.:21:45.

Liggins. This is a village on the edge of the

:21:46.:21:51.

Norfolk Broads, a traditional English village with a very

:21:52.:21:53.

traditional English pub. But inside, there is something... Or someone

:21:54.:21:55.

very African. Her name is Younis and she is

:21:56.:22:11.

originally from the Ivory Coast. She met George at the start of 2010 and

:22:12.:22:15.

married him before the year was over. In December last year, they

:22:16.:22:26.

went for a drink in The Crown and Eunice decided she wanted to run it.

:22:27.:22:31.

They started coming but they were wondering if I had to have AIDS or

:22:32.:22:35.

if I bite! She did not, in fact she was lovely. Now, the locals are big

:22:36.:22:43.

fans. It is nice to have someone with a little bit of cultural

:22:44.:22:46.

difference, I think. Have you ever been to the Ivory Coast? No, but it

:22:47.:22:53.

has come to me! When you walk through the door, there is a huge

:22:54.:22:57.

smile which is lovely. Become over and stand with me and chat and

:22:58.:23:05.

families come and dogs and anything. And they are just lovely, lovely

:23:06.:23:09.

locals. But The Crown really is your traditional English pub. There is

:23:10.:23:16.

darts in the back and the snug has not been decorated in donkeys. It is

:23:17.:23:21.

about as far from the Ivory Coast as you can imagine but Eunice does not

:23:22.:23:26.

plan to change it. You would be lots of money to have this done. Lots of

:23:27.:23:30.

money to have chairs made of old barrels. Lots of money to have all

:23:31.:23:35.

of this wood and everything. She might be 3000 miles from home but

:23:36.:23:41.

Eunice is loving the wave of the pub landlady. There is official opening

:23:42.:23:45.

on the 1st of March she is promising African food and locals cannot wait.

:23:46.:23:54.

Issue not just great? Was my wonderful!

:23:55.:23:56.

If you're interested in what the BBC does in this region then you might

:23:57.:24:00.

:24:01.:24:04.

:24:18.:24:30.

I am always deeply impressed when you do that!

:24:31.:24:33.

One day I will get you to read the number. Let's have a look at the

:24:34.:24:35.

weather. number. Let's have a look

:24:36.:24:40.

Hello. It has been a pretty lovely day. It might have felt a little bit

:24:41.:24:43.

chilly in the wind, a little cooler and fresher but we reach highs of 10

:24:44.:24:48.

Celsius in the sunshine and plenty of that threw out the morning. This

:24:49.:24:53.

is our satellite picture of today. We did see a little bit more patchy

:24:54.:24:56.

cloud in the middle afternoon a lot of that has good away. Set a scene

:24:57.:25:01.

for quite a chilly night and there are some showers around as well. I

:25:02.:25:04.

am going to draw your attention to the radar. They are not on our part

:25:05.:25:10.

of the region but creeping into the Western counties. If you live in

:25:11.:25:12.

pieces like the western half of Cambridgeshire, Northamptonshire and

:25:13.:25:15.

into Hertfordshire, you might catch a showers rate this evening. In

:25:16.:25:19.

fact, the computer is predicting more showers than there may be will

:25:20.:25:23.

be. They will be very isolated. For most of us, it looks like a dry

:25:24.:25:27.

night with long, clear spells. The winds have been quite brisk through

:25:28.:25:32.

this evening. Still some gusts of 30 mph but they will continue to ease

:25:33.:25:37.

overnight. With those light winds, temperatures drop close to freezing.

:25:38.:25:41.

For some of us, there will be patchy frost around by the time we get to

:25:42.:25:43.

tomorrow morning. By the end of tonight, a south`westerly wind. The

:25:44.:25:49.

chilly start to the weekend. Out of the two days, Saturday looks like

:25:50.:25:53.

the best. There will be some rain spends sunshine and it will stay

:25:54.:25:57.

mainly dry throughout the day. `` some long spells of sunshine. Sunday

:25:58.:26:01.

will be cloudier and it may mean some light rain or drizzle but the

:26:02.:26:05.

feature of Sunday's weather will be the wind. Very windy expected on

:26:06.:26:11.

Sunday. We will start tomorrow with light winds and plenty of sunshine

:26:12.:26:14.

through the morning. Into the afternoon, was a bit more cloud

:26:15.:26:16.

feeding through into Western counties. `` a little bit more

:26:17.:26:23.

cloud. Highs comfortably claiming to 10 Celsius, 50 Fahrenheit. The wind

:26:24.:26:27.

will be coming from a south`westerly direction and will pick up through

:26:28.:26:30.

the afternoon and into the evening. Increasing amounts of cloud by the

:26:31.:26:35.

end of the day. It may well produce some light rain or drizzle. That is

:26:36.:26:38.

how Sunday ships up. The pressure pattern maker would be dramatic.

:26:39.:26:41.

There will be rain across the western half of the country, but not

:26:42.:26:46.

much for us but a brisk wind. Gusts of around 40 mph or possible and a

:26:47.:26:51.

lot of cloud around on Sunday. The figures across the West, producing

:26:52.:26:54.

some light rain and drizzle not significant amounts. The winds ease

:26:55.:26:58.

little for Monday but there will be some showers, staying pretty

:26:59.:27:01.

unsettled to start next week. Tuesday, little cooler. There will

:27:02.:27:06.

be some showers and windy once more. Thank you very much.

:27:07.:27:10.

Just when you think things are getting better, along comes the

:27:11.:27:12.

forecast! Had a great weekend. Goodbye.
