chilly old week, George. Rais thank you. That's all from the

:00:00.:00:00.

Clocking off in Corby. 900 jobs go as Solway announce it's closing its

:00:00.:00:14.

factory for good. It was shocking. It was a shock to everybody. Nobody

:00:15.:00:17.

thought it would shut compldtely. Hello and welcome to Monday's Look

:00:18.:00:20.

East. The report Kettering Hospital didn't want you to see. 43 drrors

:00:21.:00:24.

which lead to the death of teenager Victoria Harrison. We will be here

:00:25.:00:32.

later in the programme after decades of disappointment, Cambridgd United

:00:33.:00:36.

finally lift a trophy. And `t Luton Town, they are swapping headscarves

:00:37.:00:37.

for football scarves. First tonight, 900 jobs are to go in

:00:38.:01:02.

Corby as one of the town's biggest employers announces it will close

:01:03.:01:05.

down this Summer. Two weeks ago Solway Foods announced in would cut

:01:06.:01:09.

more than 500 jobs. But at lunchtime today, staff were told that the

:01:10.:01:12.

remaining 400 posts would also go. It's a huge blow for the town which

:01:13.:01:16.

already has one of the highdst rates of unemployment in the region. Our

:01:17.:01:19.

reporter Mike Cartwright is outside the factory now. And, Mike, you were

:01:20.:01:25.

actually there when the news broke. There has been a huge questhon over

:01:26.:01:28.

the future of this factory but nobody expected this news today You

:01:29.:01:34.

could sit on people's faces. They were stunned. Many emerged on

:01:35.:01:37.

mobiles telling their familx and friends the news. People have worked

:01:38.:01:41.

here for 30 years, help famhlies working together. But come the end

:01:42.:01:45.

of the summer, all the jobs will go. They filed from the factory moments

:01:46.:01:48.

after being told it was to close. They knew more than 500 had lost

:01:49.:01:54.

jobs here. Now all of them have We've just been told. So wh`t's your

:01:55.:01:59.

reaction to that? Well, of course, it's a shock. But I've taken

:02:00.:02:02.

voluntary redundancy so tod`y is actually my last day which hs very

:02:03.:02:05.

sad. People must be shocked, aren't they? Yeah, they are, totally. Did

:02:06.:02:08.

they think the factory might actually stay? Yes. They thought a

:02:09.:02:15.

solution would be sought. It was shocking. It was a shock to

:02:16.:02:18.

everybody. Nobody knew they were going to turn around and sax it was

:02:19.:02:21.

going to shut completely. They've asked for voluntary redundancy and

:02:22.:02:25.

people have put in for it. H haven't and I should have done maybd, and

:02:26.:02:29.

got out and got another job as soon as possible but it's frightdning.

:02:30.:02:33.

Yeah, they want to say they tried to get a buyer but nobody bought the

:02:34.:02:36.

factory and they are not getting any more products. So, we are hdre until

:02:37.:02:40.

the summer so that's about ht. The factory, which packs salad, was one

:02:41.:02:44.

of the largest employers in the town. Opened by Princess Anne in the

:02:45.:02:47.

'80s, three decades on, Solway Foods say the site must close. We have

:02:48.:02:51.

fully explored all the options available, they say.

:02:52.:02:57.

Handbrake. Come off the foot brake onto the accelerator. Until Friday,

:02:58.:03:04.

Sean Hall worked at Solway. He's walked straight into a new job. The

:03:05.:03:07.

trainer here helping youngsters learn new skills. Workers at Solway,

:03:08.:03:11.

he says, believed the factory had a strong future. The core staff have

:03:12.:03:17.

been here for more than 20 xears. They've done well. A lot of business

:03:18.:03:21.

has come out of the place. Then it was taken over and within 18 months,

:03:22.:03:25.

it's not viable so a lot of questions are being asked about how

:03:26.:03:29.

genuine it is. We haven't got no grounds to argue it really. A task

:03:30.:03:34.

force had tried to keep Solway Foods in Corby. But couldn't. It hs

:03:35.:03:37.

devastating. 913 people employed there. That's 913 families `ffected,

:03:38.:03:42.

so you can make the multiplx effect yourself. The workforce is loyal,

:03:43.:03:48.

hard`working. They have demonstrated that over many years to Solway. It's

:03:49.:03:52.

disappointing that Solway h`ven t been able to recognise the loyalty

:03:53.:03:56.

of the workforce here in Corby. For more than 500, today was thdir last

:03:57.:04:01.

day of work here. By the end of the summer, all of them, more than 00,

:04:02.:04:10.

will have gone. Members of the task force were surprised by tod`y's

:04:11.:04:13.

announcement and bitterly disappointed. They say they worked

:04:14.:04:17.

hard to try to keep them in this time. Unemployment has been creeping

:04:18.:04:22.

up in Corby. Clearly, there are jobs here. It will be difficult for any

:04:23.:04:25.

town to swallow more than 900 redundancies. Thanks very mtch,

:04:26.:04:30.

Mike. Let's go live to Westlinster and the MP for Corby Andy S`wford.

:04:31.:04:33.

You lobbied hard for this not to happen. But what we've now got is

:04:34.:04:40.

the worst case scenario, isn't it? Definitely. This is what we were

:04:41.:04:43.

trying to avoid with all thd hard work of the task force, the local

:04:44.:04:48.

partners and we were talking to the company in good faith and wd

:04:49.:04:51.

believed it might be possible to keep some jobs at Corby. And then

:04:52.:04:55.

the news came out a fortnight ago, 500 jobs. Today, just as thd

:04:56.:04:59.

consultation closes, they h`ve shocked everyone by saying the whole

:05:00.:05:04.

factory will close. I think there could be a different way forward and

:05:05.:05:07.

I'm incredibly disappointed. So you're telling me that you were

:05:08.:05:12.

genuinely shocked? You didn't think the writing was on the wall? They

:05:13.:05:18.

had two major contracts. We know they lost the biggest contr`ct a few

:05:19.:05:22.

weeks ago, the first big announcement. We met with l`st

:05:23.:05:26.

Monday. I talked of a company and they said they were looking to

:05:27.:05:29.

continue their other contract and in the long term, they could h`ve

:05:30.:05:33.

rebuilt the business. This hs really disappointing. Of course, it's

:05:34.:05:36.

particularly bad news for the families who are going to bd

:05:37.:05:40.

directly affected and all otr focus now has to be on helping people into

:05:41.:05:45.

new jobs. What kind of hope can you offer the workers and their families

:05:46.:05:49.

at home tonight thinking, in a few months, there won't be a job to go

:05:50.:05:55.

to? We were always doing two things with the task force, trying to save

:05:56.:05:58.

jobs and recognising, if jobs went, we had to support people so

:05:59.:06:02.

already, this week there is a jobs fair organised on Thursday. Just

:06:03.:06:06.

around the corner from the company. 30 jobs there, two major colpanies

:06:07.:06:13.

are going into the company with hundreds of vacancies betwedn them,

:06:14.:06:16.

and they are food companies, so people will have the relevant

:06:17.:06:20.

skills. Hopefully, they can find new jobs. I met the boy in a report

:06:21.:06:26.

there, was already found a new job. Unemployment in Corby is ond of the

:06:27.:06:31.

highest in the region. The National office of statistics say it is

:06:32.:06:37.

creeping up. I know you are hopeful but realistically, we are going to

:06:38.:06:39.

hundreds of more people join the dealt you, aren't we? `` dole

:06:40.:06:46.

queue. It is worrying for the workers and families. It shows

:06:47.:06:50.

what's happening across the region, ran the country, some parts are

:06:51.:06:53.

doing OK, the South of Engl`nd but, in Corby, we have very high youth

:06:54.:06:58.

unemployment and we have had this year, 160 more people on thd dole

:06:59.:07:03.

before the announcement. But we re working locally to attract

:07:04.:07:07.

investment. There are some jobs coming along. I hope people will

:07:08.:07:10.

come to the jobs fair, and hf we can support them through the task force,

:07:11.:07:14.

we will do our best. OK, th`nk you very much indeed. Kettering General

:07:15.:07:16.

Hospital has finally releasdd details of a catalogue of errors

:07:17.:07:20.

which led to a teenage girl bleeding to death. 17`year`old Victoria

:07:21.:07:23.

Harrison died after an appendix operation in 2012. The hosphtal

:07:24.:07:30.

carried out an investigation into her death but refused to publish the

:07:31.:07:33.

report, saying it could end`nger the mental health of staff. But a

:07:34.:07:39.

Freedom of Information requdst from the BBC has forced Kettering General

:07:40.:07:42.

to reveal details of 43 mistakes, oversights and errors. In a moment

:07:43.:07:51.

we'll be hearing from the hospital, but first this report from Neil

:07:52.:07:56.

Bradford. This is the Victoria Harris and her family remember. A

:07:57.:08:00.

teenager full of life and whth everything to live for. Last August,

:08:01.:08:05.

aged 17, she was admitted to Kettering General Hospital with

:08:06.:08:10.

appendicitis. A series of hospital blunders meant she never cale home.

:08:11.:08:17.

It just wasn't one mistake. It was 43 mistakes that started with the

:08:18.:08:20.

surgeon, right through to the nurse when she eventually died. The

:08:21.:08:27.

teenager suffered a damaged artery during the procedure. Surgeons had

:08:28.:08:33.

worked to stop the bleeding but not all nursing staff were made aware.

:08:34.:08:37.

Few formal observations werd recorded on the day of surgdry

:08:38.:08:40.

before nursing staff find Vhctoria unresponsive the following lorning.

:08:41.:08:46.

The hospital withheld details of the mistakes because managers fdared

:08:47.:08:49.

releasing them would have an impact on the mental health of the staff

:08:50.:08:54.

concerned. The BBC challengdd that under the Freedom of Inform`tion Act

:08:55.:08:57.

and today the hospital's internal enquiry has been released to the

:08:58.:09:03.

public. It reveals ten staff members were disciplined. There werd a total

:09:04.:09:07.

of 43 mistakes, errors and oversights. They included poor

:09:08.:09:11.

record`keeping, poor communhcation between staff and a failure to check

:09:12.:09:19.

Victoria's abdomen after surgery. And the list goes on with a string

:09:20.:09:22.

of inconsistencies, inaccur`cies and failures. There was no form`l pain

:09:23.:09:29.

assessment, vital signs werd not monitored. And there was no record

:09:30.:09:33.

of discussions with the famhly. Victoria's mother believes ht's

:09:34.:09:36.

important the public know what happened. We have a right to know

:09:37.:09:41.

what our hospitals are doing. If we are going into hospital, ard we

:09:42.:09:45.

going to come home? You know, they have a right to know. Patient groups

:09:46.:09:50.

say hospitals have a duty to be more transparent. Ideally, we wotld like

:09:51.:09:55.

to see them proactively discussing these incidents in public board

:09:56.:10:00.

meetings. As a real demonstration to the public that they serve that they

:10:01.:10:04.

are being open and honest and transparent and learning lessons to

:10:05.:10:09.

make things safer for all of us The hospital has since set up Vhctoria's

:10:10.:10:13.

Legacy. A programme of improvements to ensure the same mistakes are not

:10:14.:10:18.

made again. Victoria's family say it's important the public know the

:10:19.:10:20.

quality of the care they receive. So do the hospital feel thex got it

:10:21.:10:31.

wrong and should have released their report in the first place? @ short

:10:32.:10:35.

while ago, I put that questhon to Kettering's Director of Nursing and

:10:36.:10:44.

Quality, Clare Culpin. The decision wasn't made lightly. It was

:10:45.:10:49.

considered because the internal investigation describes every aspect

:10:50.:10:55.

of care and treatment that Victoria was given and we have to thhnk about

:10:56.:11:03.

protecting the dignity and respecting that patient. And

:11:04.:11:10.

thinking about the detail of that report on our staff, as well. In the

:11:11.:11:18.

words of Victoria's mother, though, she says we all have a right to know

:11:19.:11:24.

what our hospitals are doing. Her mother wanted that report ptblished.

:11:25.:11:34.

Absolutely. I agree. I agred that organisations, particularly

:11:35.:11:36.

hospitals, should be open and transparent. We are not dis`greeing

:11:37.:11:41.

with that. Why did it take ` BBC Freedom of information requdst to

:11:42.:11:45.

get you to publish this report, because the panel that conshdered it

:11:46.:11:49.

ruled that it was in the public interest? Well, what is in the

:11:50.:11:56.

public interest is that you are open and candid and transparent `bout

:11:57.:11:59.

what happened, which is exactly what we have done, what is in public

:12:00.:12:04.

interest is that you actually respond to a tragedy like the loss

:12:05.:12:09.

of Victoria. It was not a qtestion of not releasing it because we

:12:10.:12:14.

didn't want to share it. It is based on being a considered decishon

:12:15.:12:17.

because we actually felt th`t we had shared an awful lot of detahl and

:12:18.:12:22.

been very open around the f`ct that mistakes were made and errors were

:12:23.:12:26.

made and we have been very candid about that. Thank you very luch A

:12:27.:12:31.

man and a woman have been charged with stabbing two people in Wisbech

:12:32.:12:35.

at the weekend. The victims, two men, remain in a serious but stable

:12:36.:12:38.

condition. They were attackdd shortly after midnight on Stnday in

:12:39.:12:42.

Orange Grove. The area in the centre of the town was sealed off for a

:12:43.:12:46.

forensic examination. The ldader of Cambridgeshire County Counchl is

:12:47.:12:48.

council's decision to move from a cabinet to a committee systdm of

he'll step down in May. Now it's over to Stewart and Susie for the

And some wonderful scenes at Wembley, as Cambridge United

:13:26.:13:26.

celebrate winning the A question: what was the biggest

:13:27.:13:34.

airborne operation in World War II? If you said D`day, you would be

:13:35.:13:38.

wrong. The biggest in a single day happened nine months later. It was

:13:39.:13:42.

called Operation Varsity and it involved 40,000 troops. The

:13:43.:13:46.

objective ` securing a bridgehead over the Rhine. Today a service was

:13:47.:13:51.

held at Coggeshall in Essex to mark the anniversary. This report is from

:13:52.:14:00.

Alex Dunlop. Imagine this: Xou are strapped into a six tonne plywood

:14:01.:14:04.

glider, 28 soldiers crammed in the back. Four hours later, you will be

:14:05.:14:09.

to glide behind enemy lines. Survive that, and you will have to hit the

:14:10.:14:12.

ground, pick up your gun and start fighting. David Brooks did `ll of

:14:13.:14:19.

that and is here to tell thd tale. We saw the Rhine, which of course,

:14:20.:14:24.

is a very wide river, and there were smudges of fire around us, `nd

:14:25.:14:29.

several gliders got shot down. And 100 glider pilots were actu`lly

:14:30.:14:32.

killed, and that is why we're here today in of those pilots th`t we

:14:33.:14:38.

lost. It is poignant that the memorial to those menaces they

:14:39.:14:41.

stone's throw from the airfheld where some of those pilots took off

:14:42.:14:47.

60 years ago today. So willhngness to act, as much of their action

:14:48.:14:51.

that gives the state is that they should be remembered... Manx, of

:14:52.:14:58.

course, remember operation Larket Gardening, September 1934, the

:14:59.:15:06.

classic bridge too far. The viewer will remember Operation Varsity

:15:07.:15:09.

review be the most daring and successful airborne operation in

:15:10.:15:21.

history. The soldiers' job was to create a bridgehead to advance

:15:22.:15:24.

across the Rhine. It was dangerous, but it worked. Today, the Army Air

:15:25.:15:30.

Corps, still on active servhce in Afghanistan, organised the service

:15:31.:15:34.

and the Apache fly`past. Certainly through technology, we are `ble to

:15:35.:15:37.

protect ourselves more, but the fundamental basics are very much the

:15:38.:15:41.

same. We are still aviators, prepared to be soldiers on the

:15:42.:15:45.

ground, as they were, and they were soldiers on the ground. The pilot

:15:46.:15:50.

glider regiment no longer exists, but its memory and contribution to

:15:51.:15:52.

Allied victory in Europe is secured. In sport, great goals, great wins

:15:53.:16:01.

and day to remember at Wembley this weekend. Here's Tom.

:16:02.:16:04.

Good place to start. Some shlverware for non`league Cambridge Unhted who

:16:05.:16:08.

won the FA Trophy for the fhrst time. It ended a 45`year waht for

:16:09.:16:13.

victory in a cup competition. The U's hope their Wembley win will

:16:14.:16:16.

inspire them to a return to the Football League after nine xears

:16:17.:16:17.

away. Wembley! Wembley! Cambridge United

:16:18.:16:30.

fans were out in force yestdrday afternoon to see if their tdam could

:16:31.:16:33.

make it third time lucky Welbley Stadium. No promotion on offer this

:16:34.:16:37.

time, but silverware and ?50,00 prize. That combination will be

:16:38.:16:42.

music to their ears. I think they're the best team in the world, but who

:16:43.:16:47.

knows. I've been here twice before and got my heart broken. I don't

:16:48.:16:52.

want to do it again. Amber nation out in force today. That is what

:16:53.:16:56.

it's all about. They almost got off to a flyer inside four minutes.

:16:57.:17:02.

Despite struggling in the ldad below Cambridge, Gosport were out for the

:17:03.:17:05.

challenge, also having some early challenges. In the 39th mintte,

:17:06.:17:14.

though, Bird settle the nerves. Ryan Bird against the keeper! And United

:17:15.:17:21.

take the lead! And for the first time in three attempt, Unitdd are in

:17:22.:17:24.

front. After the break, Ryan Donaldson added goal number two and

:17:25.:17:28.

he was the right place at the right time to make it three zero. He could

:17:29.:17:32.

have had the rarest of Wembley hat`trick when a penalty was

:17:33.:17:36.

awarded. Luke Berry, however, slotted home from the spot. 4`0 the

:17:37.:17:43.

final score, and memories to savour forever. It's amazing. I can't

:17:44.:17:48.

explain how good it is. Adddd it to the rest of your footballing

:17:49.:17:52.

career? It is amazing. I can't even speak. I think we all deserve this,

:17:53.:17:59.

and hopefully, we can use it as a springboard for the rest of our

:18:00.:18:02.

season. If we can get back through the play`offs, it will do us good,

:18:03.:18:09.

but we've got a really tough line up now, want to make sure we are in the

:18:10.:18:13.

play`offs first of all. For a club that has laid a loss for thd last

:18:14.:18:19.

decade, prize of a hundred `nd ?50,000 would make a differdnce the

:18:20.:18:22.

promotion would you worth hhs weight in gold.

:18:23.:18:24.

Now, it's rare you ever see Chris Hughton as animated as this. The

:18:25.:18:28.

Norwich boss was quick to rdgain his composure. But he and the f`ns had

:18:29.:18:32.

just witnessed one of the goals of the season by Alex Tettey. @ 2` win

:18:33.:18:35.

over Sunderland handed them some breathing space in the Premher

:18:36.:18:38.

League. Norwich are seven points clear of the drop`zone with seven to

:18:39.:18:47.

play. It is vital for us pl`ying at home, winning 2`0, and the way we

:18:48.:18:53.

played today is huge for our team, and has brought us confidence as

:18:54.:18:55.

well. Ipswich manager Mick McCarthy admits

:18:56.:18:58.

this week's matches will go a long way to deciding their play`off fate.

:18:59.:19:02.

Town won 2`0 at Brighton, Slith and Murphy scoring, meaning thex're five

:19:03.:19:05.

points off the pace going into home games with play`off chasing Derby

:19:06.:19:07.

tomorrow night, then Nottingham Forest on Saturday. And thex sacked

:19:08.:19:11.

their manager today. For Late Kick Off tonight, I spoke to the Ipswich

:19:12.:19:14.

manager on the golf course `bout the club's progress despite the need to

:19:15.:19:18.

make huge cuts to the playing budget.

:19:19.:19:22.

I tell you what I thought when I came in 16 months ago. Make sure you

:19:23.:19:26.

get enough points to stay in the league. I didn't consider what I

:19:27.:19:29.

would be doing the following season. That was the remix. At the start of

:19:30.:19:33.

this season, I thought, I h`ve a good squad, I thought we had a

:19:34.:19:38.

chance. And we still have, but we must make sure we stay therd. If you

:19:39.:19:42.

have had a bit more money available, you think that would have m`de a

:19:43.:19:47.

difference? But it wasn't. H know what my room it is. That thd gate.

:19:48.:19:53.

That's the job I've got. People say we haven't spent anything, but we've

:19:54.:19:58.

put ?5 million in this year, just to keep is where we are. We ard

:19:59.:20:03.

adhering to financial fair play I'm not saying everybody else is. In

:20:04.:20:10.

fact, I'm certain they aren't. So within those parameters, we've done

:20:11.:20:14.

well. You mention financial fair play. Is that why things have been

:20:15.:20:18.

cut back, or the owner wishhng to keep a lid on things, or a bit of

:20:19.:20:24.

both? That policy is therefore everybody, supposedly to add here

:20:25.:20:29.

too. Queens Park Rangers can have a huge fine, and the rest of them but

:20:30.:20:33.

we are sticking to it, and within that, we have done really wdll. If

:20:34.:20:38.

it doesn't happen this year, do you think you'll be under more pressure

:20:39.:20:43.

next year to deliver promothon? Listen, the longer you're in the

:20:44.:20:49.

job, the more pressure it bdcomes. But I do worry about that. H would

:20:50.:20:53.

do my job under whatever circumstances I'm doing it. I think

:20:54.:20:56.

what people underestimated the amount of pressure I put on myself,

:20:57.:21:02.

and I get people patting me on back saying doing your job. We mhght miss

:21:03.:21:07.

out on the play`offs, howevdr. I think we've got a chance thhs year,

:21:08.:21:11.

and still have, but to get hn those play`offs, and I `` if I don't think

:21:12.:21:21.

I can do it, there'd be no point me being here, and if Marcus doesn t

:21:22.:21:24.

think I can do it, there'd be no point in being here either. So we

:21:25.:21:28.

continue to try and prove otrselves. They may have had their

:21:29.:21:31.

international stars back, btt it couldn't prevent a second stccessive

:21:32.:21:33.

defeat for Northampton. Saints director of rugby Jim Mallinder

:21:34.:21:36.

insists they're "not down and out", despite losing top spot going down

:21:37.:21:38.

at Sale. More sport on the website, where you

:21:39.:21:42.

can find tonight's team news ahead of Southend's league match with

Oxford. Thank you very much.

About 100 Asian women were `t Luton Town this weekend for the g`me

:21:49.:21:52.

against Chester. It was part of a campaign called "From Headscarves to

:21:53.:22:01.

Football Scarves". The club is trying to persuade more Asi`n and

:22:02.:22:04.

female supporters to go to games. Chettan Partak from the BBC's Asian

:22:05.:22:09.

Network went with them. For most of these women, who lived

:22:10.:22:12.

locally, it's the first timd they've been anywhere near a football match.

:22:13.:22:18.

They're coming to watch en lasse. I'm nervous. I don't know what's

:22:19.:22:21.

going to happen. I know will be very loud. The crowd is quite

:22:22.:22:26.

intimidating. You always here about football hooligans, but bec`use I

:22:27.:22:32.

think there is a large group of us, I think you'll be OK. Today is about

:22:33.:22:39.

these young ladies experiencing something of a haven't in the past,

:22:40.:22:43.

and a lot of them live quitd nearby, and they often see the supporters

:22:44.:22:46.

going up and down the streets, but today, they are going to go to the

:22:47.:22:50.

ground. I think it is about the misconceptions that this colmunity

:22:51.:22:53.

has about football, but also what football supporters have about this

:22:54.:22:57.

community, and I hope will be a real sharing experience. Same echo its

:22:58.:23:00.

really important to have people from the Asian community here, bdcause

:23:01.:23:03.

commercially, they form a significant part of the demographic

:23:04.:23:06.

of Luton, and the numbers attending a relatively small. We want to

:23:07.:23:10.

increase that because we want to increase our revenues. It is good

:23:11.:23:13.

commercially and socially. We want to achieve a better demographic mix.

:23:14.:23:18.

The match sees top of the t`ble Luton town face Chester. Despite the

:23:19.:23:22.

novelty of the experience, lost seem to be having a good time, and have

:23:23.:23:27.

had no problem fitting in. Ht's a really great buys an atmosphere Is

:23:28.:23:33.

actually quite unifying. It was boring at the beginning. But it is

:23:34.:23:38.

pretty cool. The atmosphere is awesome, and everyone is chdering.

:23:39.:23:44.

They are singing tunes, it's quite good. If their first time at the

:23:45.:23:49.

football today, and they bedn a little bit confused about some of

:23:50.:23:51.

the songs they have heard. We've been teaching them the words. The

:23:52.:23:55.

organisers hope seems like this will become less uncommon, and won this

:23:56.:23:59.

match to become one of many for these funds. `` fans.

:24:00.:24:08.

Very chilly overnight, wasn't it? It was. The average lowest temperature

:24:09.:24:15.

this time of year should be three Celsius.

:24:16.:24:17.

As you can see, last night got a lot colder than that. `5 in Norfolk and

:24:18.:24:25.

in many other places, below freezing. So a cold, frosty start to

:24:26.:24:30.

the day today. We have enjoxed a lot of sunshine. This frontal sxstem and

:24:31.:24:34.

the cloud and rain associatdd are still down to the south`west, so we

:24:35.:24:37.

saw a bit more about pushing through, but it stayed dry `nd lots

:24:38.:24:41.

of us enjoyed some sunshine. They are skies to start today, btt

:24:42.:24:44.

eventually, thicker cloud and rain pushes in from the south`west. Most

:24:45.:24:49.

of it is light and patchy, but we can't rule out some heavy btrsts,

:24:50.:24:53.

and even as I speak, there hs some uncertainty as to how far e`st this

:24:54.:24:55.

rain will get. So a good part of rain will get. So a good part of

:24:56.:25:00.

Norfolk and Suffolk could stage I overnight. Lowest temperatures by

:25:01.:25:03.

the end of the night underndath the clearer, drier skies are down to

:25:04.:25:06.

around two or three Celsius, so there might be a ground lost in some

:25:07.:25:11.

places. Elsewhere, if there is an earlier ground frost, it will be

:25:12.:25:15.

gone as the temperatures rise as the rain spreading. Tomorrow, a front

:25:16.:25:20.

brings thicker cloud and rahn, comes to a halt, and then starts to pull

:25:21.:25:24.

away again to the west. So the best of any brightness and sunshhne first

:25:25.:25:27.

thing in parts of Norfolk and Suffolk. Elsewhere, cloudy day with

:25:28.:25:31.

outbreaks of rain. At the France does the pull away to the wdst, it

:25:32.:25:34.

should start to take the thhcker cloud and rain with it. So we should

:25:35.:25:38.

see brighter skies from the east. Temperatures inland could gdt up to

:25:39.:25:45.

nine or 10 degrees. Where wd keep the thicker cloud and rain for

:25:46.:25:50.

longest, and along the coast, with onshore wind, temperatures will

:25:51.:25:54.

struggle up to about seven or eight degrees. Through the afternoon, the

:25:55.:25:57.

last of the thicker cloud and rain clears, with a view showers

:25:58.:26:02.

following. A largely dry end to the day. Into the middle of the week,

:26:03.:26:06.

Wednesday and Thursday, hopdfully some fine and dry weather, but those

:26:07.:26:12.

the chance of showers on both days. On Friday, a good deal of

:26:13.:26:16.

uncertainty, but as it stands, another cold day, perhaps more cloud

:26:17.:26:21.

and outbreaks of rain. Looks like a frost on Tuesday and Wednesday

:26:22.:26:23.

night. Thank you very much. If you took part in Sport Rdlief at

:26:24.:26:27.

the weekend, well done. ?53 million pounds raised so far. The atmosphere

:26:28.:26:34.

in Norwich, as I started up the Sport Relief raised there, was

:26:35.:26:39.

fantastic. Your daughter finished it? Yes, she's only little. So we'll

:26:40.:26:42.

leave you tonight with some pictures, including a speci`l video

:26:43.:26:45.

made for Sport Relief by Dance Matters, a dance school in

Cambridgeshire. Good night.
