Hello and welcome to Look East. In the programme tonight: | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
what next for two of our hospitals as they face escalating costs? | :00:07. | :00:12. | |
Another horse doping revelation shakes Newmarket ` | :00:13. | :00:15. | |
this time, the horse under investigation is owned by the Queen. | :00:16. | :00:22. | |
As the Commonwealth Games get under way, | :00:23. | :00:25. | |
we look at where we can expect to pick up medals. | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
And it needs some TLC, but this seaside pier could be all yours | :00:29. | :00:32. | |
First tonight, the dilemma facing the NHS. | :00:33. | :00:47. | |
and still provide the care patients deserve. | :00:48. | :00:52. | |
Change is needed and fast, say doctors, | :00:53. | :00:55. | |
the Bedfordshire risks overspending by ?50 million. | :00:56. | :01:01. | |
greater demands on healthcare and an aging population. | :01:02. | :01:06. | |
And hospitals in Bedford and Milton Keynes are feeling the pressure. | :01:07. | :01:10. | |
But local people are worried the push for change and cutting costs | :01:11. | :01:14. | |
will mean facilities at their nearest hospital will be downgraded. | :01:15. | :01:18. | |
Neil Bradford's at Bedford Hospital now. | :01:19. | :01:27. | |
Since this review began in to both hospitals, has been speculation | :01:28. | :01:35. | |
about Accident and Emergency services here at Bedford Hospital. | :01:36. | :01:42. | |
32 different solutions have been considered, they have been whittled | :01:43. | :01:45. | |
down to five. All five options are being looked at and contain some | :01:46. | :01:50. | |
form of emergency care at Bedford Hospital. Some are better, some are | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
worse than the service currently provided. What is sure that the | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
services provided now cannot stay. With rising costs and falling | :01:59. | :02:01. | |
budgets, health care provision in Milton Keynes | :02:02. | :02:03. | |
and Bedford needs urgent attention. The Clinical Commissioning Groups | :02:04. | :02:05. | |
responsible for that care say the current provision | :02:06. | :02:08. | |
is unsustainable. In January, they began reviewing | :02:09. | :02:11. | |
emergency services in both towns. Unions are worried about | :02:12. | :02:17. | |
the outcome for Bedford Hospital. It looks | :02:18. | :02:20. | |
like a de`escalation or downgrading of A services at Bedford Hospital | :02:21. | :02:22. | |
in favour of another trust locally. Very worrying and disconcerting, not | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
only for the stakeholders but obviously conversely employees | :02:28. | :02:30. | |
and users at Bedford Hospital. The CCGs are looking at five | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
possible models of emergency care. Three out of the five scenarios | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
involve an enhanced A department in Milton Keynes | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
while the other two include All scenarios include some level | :02:44. | :02:45. | |
of emergency care at both sites. The clinical commissioning groups | :02:46. | :02:52. | |
for Bedfordshire and Milton Keynes say there are no | :02:53. | :02:54. | |
preconceived outcomes. The preferred options go to public | :02:55. | :02:58. | |
consultation later this year. The patient watchdog says it is | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
important that people take part. We always have concerns | :03:03. | :03:05. | |
because any change is worrying for people, people always have | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
concerns about changes. But I think the important thing | :03:10. | :03:14. | |
is we have to have a say The review is also looking | :03:15. | :03:18. | |
at community`based care and ways of reducing | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
emergency admissions. The Clinical | :03:22. | :03:24. | |
Commissioning Groups say So will patients notice the | :03:25. | :03:50. | |
depends on the outcome of this depends on the | :03:51. | :03:52. | |
review. Those conducting it says review. Those conducting it says | :03:53. | :03:53. | |
most patients will not. For example, if you turned up at Accident and | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
Emergency, you're still be treated. What happens next? If it is a minor | :03:58. | :04:01. | |
injuries unit or something on that scale, you'll be treated and then | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
transferred to a bigger unit. To a certain degree, that is all ready | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
happening with things like heart attacks. Thank you. | :04:09. | :04:11. | |
Dr Dianne Bell is from | :04:12. | :04:12. | |
the Bedfordshire Clinical Commissioning Group, | :04:13. | :04:14. | |
at the same time as improving the service. | :04:15. | :04:20. | |
It is about the fact that the models of care we have | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
actually are not suitable for the population's needs these days. | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
But money here is the most important thing, isn't it? | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
And you you've got millions and millions of pounds | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
This is about getting value for the money we have. | :04:35. | :04:40. | |
So, yes, we do have limited resources, that is an inevitability. | :04:41. | :04:45. | |
It is in our personal budget, it is in our NHS budgets as well. | :04:46. | :04:48. | |
But we know we can do more with the money we are given. | :04:49. | :04:51. | |
And that is what this review is about. | :04:52. | :04:53. | |
The thing that people are really worried about here is that, | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
will their local hospital, whether it is in Bedford or | :04:58. | :05:00. | |
Milton Keynes, be different than it is now ` be downgraded, if you like? | :05:01. | :05:09. | |
I think the one thing we can say is that the model of health care | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
will be different because we know the status quo is not an option. | :05:14. | :05:16. | |
But this is not just about hospital`based services. | :05:17. | :05:18. | |
We are looking at really beefing up and improving the quality of care | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
That means you never need to use the hospital in the first place. | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
OK, but let's just talk about the hospitals for a moment. | :05:27. | :05:34. | |
Let's talk about the thing that everyone wants | :05:35. | :05:35. | |
to have on their doorstep and that is a good A Department. | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
Can you guarantee that after this consultation period has | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
finished, that both hospitals will retain their A departments? | :05:42. | :05:43. | |
The options we are looking at all include an A Department | :05:44. | :05:47. | |
in each of Bedford and Milton Keynes hospitals. | :05:48. | :05:50. | |
Well, as I said, the status quo is not an option. | :05:51. | :05:56. | |
So we are looking at different types of hospital models, | :05:57. | :05:58. | |
Some of those models mean more services provided in one of those | :05:59. | :06:06. | |
hospitals than are currently provided and the other options | :06:07. | :06:08. | |
are looking at where we can link or network hospitals together | :06:09. | :06:11. | |
to provide better quality but it means linking with other hospitals | :06:12. | :06:13. | |
I know we are not in the formal public consultation period | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
at the moment but you are wanting to hear people's views. | :06:19. | :06:22. | |
And people will simply tell you they want the best quality of care | :06:23. | :06:26. | |
You are not necessarily going to be able to deliver that, are you? | :06:27. | :06:31. | |
Well, we are not able to deliver that today, | :06:32. | :06:33. | |
So, for example, if you have a heart attack today and you are | :06:34. | :06:37. | |
right next to Bedford Hospital, the ambulance that picks you up will not | :06:38. | :06:41. | |
take you to Bedford Hospital, it'll take you straight to a heart attack | :06:42. | :06:44. | |
And when you talk to people about what they really want, | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
"I will travel to the ends of the world | :06:49. | :06:51. | |
"to know I will get the best possible care | :06:52. | :06:53. | |
"that gives me the best possible outcomes." | :06:54. | :06:57. | |
Senior racing figures in Newmarket have described | :06:58. | :07:00. | |
the latest doping controversy to hit the town as a "genuine mistake". | :07:01. | :07:04. | |
The sport was thrown back into the headlines | :07:05. | :07:06. | |
after it emerged the Queen's horse, Estimate, | :07:07. | :07:08. | |
failed a drugs test after the recent Gold Cup at Ascot. | :07:09. | :07:11. | |
Mike Liggins sent us this report from Newmarket. | :07:12. | :07:19. | |
This is Sir Michael Stoute's yard in Newmarket, Freemason Lodge. The | :07:20. | :07:27. | |
gates remain close. This is not a doping scandal but it is clearly an | :07:28. | :07:34. | |
embarrassment for one of Britain's's best`known trainers. A | :07:35. | :07:37. | |
string of horses returning to Freemason Lodge this morning. Sir | :07:38. | :07:46. | |
Michael Stoute would have woken up to some very uncomfortable headlines | :07:47. | :07:53. | |
but it was business as usual in the yard. As we were filming, Sir | :07:54. | :07:56. | |
Michael drew up in his car. Waiting Michael drew up in his car. Waiting | :07:57. | :07:58. | |
for samples, nothing more to say at this stage. He was friendly enough | :07:59. | :08:03. | |
but he was not stopping for a chat. When Estimate won last year, the | :08:04. | :08:13. | |
Queen was delighted. But then Estimate tested positive for poppy | :08:14. | :08:21. | |
seeds. They were not too thrilled to see our cameraman today because they | :08:22. | :08:24. | |
have a Royal warrant. The company issued a statement saying the | :08:25. | :08:29. | |
contamination did not take place at their side but from a supplier. Back | :08:30. | :08:36. | |
in Newmarket, a trainer said he had concern for all concerns will stop | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
their progress in making sure those things do not get in. But a poppy | :08:41. | :08:45. | |
seed is the size of a pinhead and it does not take too many poppy seeds | :08:46. | :08:49. | |
to come up with a positive sample. Sue Dyson is an expert in equine | :08:50. | :08:57. | |
medicine. The testing is very rigorous, so they can pick up a tiny | :08:58. | :09:00. | |
amounts of any foreign substance at all. We have no idea of the | :09:01. | :09:07. | |
concentration identified. If it was tiny, it would have a negligible | :09:08. | :09:12. | |
effect on the performance. It is an embarrassment for the Queen, for so | :09:13. | :09:14. | |
Michael Stoute, who is one of the most experienced trainers as well as | :09:15. | :09:20. | |
being a leading trainer. No blame to be attached to him for this. An | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
embarrassment for Sir Michael Stoute and for the Queen. What is also | :09:25. | :09:30. | |
clear is that when it comes to ban `` to band substances, the authority | :09:31. | :09:34. | |
has a zero tolerance approach. The first piece | :09:35. | :09:39. | |
in a transport jigsaw which promises to make it easier | :09:40. | :09:41. | |
to travel from Cambridge to London Work has started on new stretch | :09:42. | :09:44. | |
of the guided busway that will link up to | :09:45. | :09:47. | |
the new railway station being built to the north | :09:48. | :09:50. | |
of Cambridge. Drivers and cyclists | :09:51. | :09:52. | |
are being warned the work but the council says | :09:53. | :09:53. | |
it will be worth it. In less than a year, the digger | :09:54. | :10:00. | |
will be replaced by buses, carrying passengers to a new railway | :10:01. | :10:02. | |
station just north of Cambridge. It is being built at | :10:03. | :10:05. | |
the old Chesterton rail sidings. From there, direct trains to London | :10:06. | :10:08. | |
or North to King's Lynn. This new stretch of busway and | :10:09. | :10:12. | |
a cycle track will cost ?6 million, paid for with a grant | :10:13. | :10:17. | |
from the Government. It is a good opportunity for local | :10:18. | :10:19. | |
business and local people and also for the future people who | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
might come and live in this area. It will have a direct access | :10:25. | :10:29. | |
into the busway. It will be ten minutes up the road, | :10:30. | :10:31. | |
where 10,000 homes will be built. All of that together in the longer | :10:32. | :10:36. | |
term, the benefits are enormous. The latest big show that | :10:37. | :10:40. | |
around 30,000 people a month That is 10,000 more than it | :10:41. | :10:44. | |
when it first opened two years ago. That is where the current section | :10:45. | :10:51. | |
of guided busway ends. That is where | :10:52. | :10:54. | |
the new section will begin. As you can see, | :10:55. | :10:56. | |
work has already begun. It is due to be completed | :10:57. | :10:58. | |
early next year. In the meantime, | :10:59. | :11:00. | |
it will mean some disruption. Construction work will now | :11:01. | :11:04. | |
be happening during the day. Milton Road will still be open | :11:05. | :11:07. | |
to traffic in both directions but may be narrowed in places with | :11:08. | :11:10. | |
cars being directed use bus lanes. From later this month, until | :11:11. | :11:14. | |
December, the cycleway underpass Cyclists will have to cross | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
and use the park on the other side. I think it is a bit | :11:19. | :11:24. | |
of a problem that cyclists Cyclists and pedestrians will have | :11:25. | :11:27. | |
to cross the road two or three times when at the moment | :11:28. | :11:31. | |
they don't have to I am working as closely | :11:32. | :11:34. | |
as possible with the project team to see if we can | :11:35. | :11:36. | |
mitigate that but, frankly, we have to deliver this station because it | :11:37. | :11:41. | |
is so important for the wider area. The new section of busway is due | :11:42. | :11:45. | |
to be complete by March next year, in plenty of time | :11:46. | :11:48. | |
for the new railway station, It's thought that | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
the Conservative Party will make | :11:52. | :11:59. | |
an official statement shortly over the future of | :12:00. | :12:01. | |
Bury St Edmunds MP David Ruffley. It follows publication | :12:02. | :12:05. | |
of a letter referring to his recent | :12:06. | :12:09. | |
police caution for assault Now it's over to Stewart and Susie | :12:10. | :12:11. | |
for the rest of the programme. Coming up, the appliance of | :12:12. | :12:33. | |
bioscience. Plus a rare opportunity to buy your own seaside pier. | :12:34. | :12:41. | |
The reputation of this region as a powerhouse for bio sciences | :12:42. | :12:44. | |
Today, two major projects were unveiled which will boost | :12:45. | :12:47. | |
The Euro MP Richard Howitt was shown plans for a multimillion pound | :12:48. | :12:52. | |
science park at Downham Market in Norfolk which hopes to attract | :12:53. | :12:54. | |
so`called "Big Data" companies and build research links with | :12:55. | :12:56. | |
And earlier, the minister for Life Sciences opened | :12:57. | :13:03. | |
Alex Dunlop has tonight's special report. | :13:04. | :13:15. | |
Bioscience and Lakeside it seems are the new school. Cambridge and | :13:16. | :13:21. | |
Norwich have become international house where you can learn a whole | :13:22. | :13:28. | |
new world. This is just a glimpse. They call this molecular farming. | :13:29. | :13:33. | |
This is just one aspect. It simply this branch of science use with | :13:34. | :13:39. | |
advances in the world of food, medicine and energy. This new centre | :13:40. | :13:44. | |
is key to the campers, it will be the beating heart of the technology | :13:45. | :13:51. | |
cluster here at Norwich Research Park. More than 3000 researchers | :13:52. | :13:54. | |
worked at the park and soon there will be more. These laboratories | :13:55. | :13:57. | |
will be leased out to scientists and academics who want to pursue new | :13:58. | :14:02. | |
ideas. Across the road there is a new ?11 million building. It offers | :14:03. | :14:05. | |
space for new companies, meeting people who want to share your ideas. | :14:06. | :14:10. | |
The government is aware that if we can beat the way in advanced | :14:11. | :14:13. | |
scientific research it will have major benefits for the economy. That | :14:14. | :14:18. | |
is why it is ploughing millions of pounds into places like this and has | :14:19. | :14:22. | |
just created the new post of life sciences minister. A job that George | :14:23. | :14:28. | |
Freeman said he will relish. He used to drive himself to the research | :14:29. | :14:31. | |
Park but now that a minister he is dropped at the front door. The | :14:32. | :14:36. | |
belief is to tell the world that Britain is investing heavily in and | :14:37. | :14:40. | |
believes in the appliance of bioscience to tackle the problems | :14:41. | :14:43. | |
facing the world is to unlock the power of technology to create new | :14:44. | :14:47. | |
products and companies to do business. The government is | :14:48. | :14:53. | |
investing a total of ?26 million year, Mr Freeman told the audience | :14:54. | :14:56. | |
that it is now one of the most important scientific clusters in | :14:57. | :15:01. | |
Europe. We punch above their weight globally and it is a great | :15:02. | :15:04. | |
opportunity to work in this environment. 14 miles west the | :15:05. | :15:12. | |
region's labours new MP Richard Hart was shown ambitious plans for a | :15:13. | :15:16. | |
multi`million pound science Park, it will look to attract world leading | :15:17. | :15:19. | |
companies in the field of so`called big data. Big money, big ideas and | :15:20. | :15:26. | |
big words. Those leading the charge to say that research in this region | :15:27. | :15:28. | |
will transform the 21st`century. The Opening Ceremony | :15:29. | :15:32. | |
of the Commonwealth Games will burst into life in just over an hour | :15:33. | :15:34. | |
in Glasgow. Athletes from | :15:35. | :15:36. | |
our region will be taking part. So, | :15:37. | :15:38. | |
after months and months of training Our sports reporter Tom Williams | :15:39. | :15:40. | |
has just sent this from Glasgow. We have been here a couple of days, | :15:41. | :15:46. | |
Glasgow was busy yesterday, it is positively bursting | :15:47. | :15:49. | |
at the seams today as we build`up Not long to go, | :15:50. | :15:52. | |
it kicks off at 20:14 this evening, that is 14 | :15:53. | :15:57. | |
minutes past eight o'clock. That is the preshow, and the main | :15:58. | :16:00. | |
ceremony starts at nine o'clock. Look who I have bumped into, | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
our very own Gail! Look at it, bathing in sunshine, it | :16:06. | :16:08. | |
is absolutely glorious, isn't it? I am so excited about the next | :16:09. | :16:13. | |
week and a half, I can't wait. We will hear more from a very | :16:14. | :16:18. | |
excited Gail shortly, it is your All of the athleteswhile are here, | :16:19. | :16:21. | |
most of them stay in the athletes village, and we have | :16:22. | :16:28. | |
been taking a sneaky look A spectacular Scottish welcome | :16:29. | :16:31. | |
for Team England, After all, these are billed | :16:32. | :16:35. | |
as the ?friendly games?. The village is filling up , | :16:36. | :16:45. | |
71 nations familiarising themselves When we got here it was | :16:46. | :16:47. | |
a bit sparse, but now it is getting more occupied | :16:48. | :17:01. | |
so the atmosphere is growing. The boys have got their house | :17:02. | :17:04. | |
together and have been playing cards a lot and the girls have | :17:05. | :17:06. | |
been painting each other's nails! I have done read with an England | :17:07. | :17:09. | |
flag and everyone is all the same so I think we were all up till ten | :17:10. | :17:13. | |

Scottish, we have black pudding Team England is the biggest team, | :17:34. | :17:36. | |
over 400 athletes and there has been a huge investment in sports science, | :17:37. | :17:43. | |
physio and recovery requirement. The athletes are moving towards | :17:44. | :17:46. | |
the limits of human performance, we try to eke out these marginal | :17:47. | :17:52. | |
gains we talk about. This type of area is what delivers | :17:53. | :17:56. | |
that and we can move people from off the podium onto the podium | :17:57. | :18:00. | |
but importantly we can move them 4,500 athletes are here, | :18:01. | :18:03. | |
the venues are ready and with over 1 billion people are | :18:04. | :18:08. | |

a university halls of residence. That is the best | :18:25. | :18:27. | |
and easiest way to describe it. It is not glamorous , | :18:28. | :18:29. | |
it is not a 5`star hotel luxury You have made the Commonwealth Games | :18:30. | :18:33. | |
pretty much your own, I only did two Commonwealth Games, | :18:34. | :18:40. | |

a lot to take it into Athens, Enjoy your media role over | :18:48. | :18:50. | |

Max Whitlock. The target, team gold. Scotland stand in their way. On the | :20:13. | :20:18. | |
track anything is possible in the 110 meter hurdles final. After | :20:19. | :20:31. | |
heartbreak in London, there will be a big return to the javelin from our | :20:32. | :20:38. | |

We swing into action tomorrow, hopefully news of the medals as the | :21:37. | :21:37. | |
other one. This summer the average price | :21:38. | :21:39. | |
of a house in this region is ?273,000, an increase of 20,000 | :21:40. | :21:42. | |
on this time last year. For a lot less than that you could | :21:43. | :21:44. | |
buy your very own pier in Suffolk. The Victorian pier is at Shotley | :21:45. | :21:48. | |
on the River Stour. It's bursting with history | :21:49. | :21:50. | |
but it does require a lot of TLC. Kevin Burch has been | :21:51. | :21:53. | |
for a look round. We bought the pier two years ago, | :21:54. | :21:57. | |
from a gentleman down Ian Newman presently has | :21:58. | :22:00. | |
the keys to what is known as the Bristol Pier at Shotley, but he?s | :22:01. | :22:07. | |
decided to sell because he says his firm, an award`winning development | :22:08. | :22:10. | |
company, has other projects on There have been no offers so far | :22:11. | :22:13. | |
but it is early days, so who could be in the market to take on this 600 | :22:14. | :22:21. | |
foot long Victorian landmark? It could really be open to | :22:22. | :22:24. | |
a wide variety of people. It could be anyone from a very keen | :22:25. | :22:30. | |
fisherman who wants his own private pier where he can be 600 foot off | :22:31. | :22:34. | |
the shore or it could be, probably And then again it might be | :22:35. | :22:37. | |
a conservation group who want to come along | :22:38. | :22:41. | |
and wish to restore it and keep it for the local people but we are | :22:42. | :22:47. | |
interested to see who comes along. The pier was built in 1894 | :22:48. | :22:51. | |
as a landing stage for a ferry, formerly owned by the Marquise | :22:52. | :22:54. | |
of Bristol, a link still noted in It once served the old HMS Ganges | :22:55. | :22:57. | |
naval training base in Shotley. Of course, whoever takes this | :22:58. | :23:03. | |
on won?t simply need vision, Sadly, | :23:04. | :23:05. | |
this has fallen into disrepair. But then again, and then there's | :23:06. | :23:11. | |
the agent would tell you... It has to be sensitive but again it | :23:12. | :23:19. | |
has to be realistic, it has to have That is probably why | :23:20. | :23:25. | |
nothing has happened. Two locals, Jo and Claire, | :23:26. | :23:29. | |
happened to be passing as we were filming , heading off | :23:30. | :23:33. | |
for their daily swim in the river. What do they think | :23:34. | :23:36. | |
about possible redevelopment? If it is not too commercialised, | :23:37. | :23:39. | |
if it was back the way it used to be for barges | :23:40. | :23:42. | |
and things in the old days. In the long run I suppose I | :23:43. | :23:48. | |
think it is better to do Because if that disappears, you | :23:49. | :23:51. | |
think, it will get very boring here. This morning, | :23:52. | :23:57. | |
the big question as Jo and Claire showed no hesitation in taking | :23:58. | :24:00. | |
the plunge is who would dip their Ian Newman says, | :24:01. | :24:02. | |
perhaps not surprisingly, that it is Kevin Burch, | :24:03. | :24:06. | |
BBC Look East at Shotley. If you have just joined us, some | :24:07. | :24:26. | |
breaking news the Bury Saint Edmunds MP David roughly has broken his | :24:27. | :24:29. | |
silence about an assault he has committed on a former partner, he | :24:30. | :24:33. | |
says he has apologised and she has accepted. Let's speak to a local | :24:34. | :24:38. | |
member of the party. Is this enough to save them? I am very pleased to | :24:39. | :24:44. | |
hear that something has been set. It has been a very long time. This is | :24:45. | :24:50. | |
what we have been waiting for and thank goodness something is going | :24:51. | :24:53. | |
forward. We now need to realise there is just the seriousness of the | :24:54. | :24:56. | |
problem and for many of us we believe that he should not continue | :24:57. | :25:04. | |
at his position, it is untenable. You would agree with the Police and | :25:05. | :25:07. | |
Crime Commissioners, such behaviour is inexcusable whoever you are? This | :25:08. | :25:14. | |
is a very serious matter, and it cannot be condoned in any way at all | :25:15. | :25:19. | |
particularly by a leader of the constituency, the member of | :25:20. | :25:23. | |
Parliament and the silence for all these months has been crazy. He | :25:24. | :25:30. | |
should go. I know that you know him reasonably well, your message to him | :25:31. | :25:34. | |
this evening? Stand down or Eagle sack you? Stand down with grace and | :25:35. | :25:41. | |
we will see thank you for what you have done. You have worked well and | :25:42. | :25:45. | |
hard for 17 years but what has happened now is not something that | :25:46. | :25:51. | |
is acceptable, now or in the future. Thank you very much. Then for the | :25:52. | :25:53. | |
weather. It has been a glorious day. The | :25:54. | :26:03. | |
sunshine has been raked across the region. The cloud is gone from | :26:04. | :26:08. | |
yesterday with long spells of sunshine this afternoon. | :26:09. | :26:10. | |
Temperatures up to 27 and 28 degrees. On the coast it was a few | :26:11. | :26:15. | |
degrees lower from places like Essex and Norfolk. There were long spells | :26:16. | :26:21. | |
of sunshine and a dry day. There will be long clear spells overnight | :26:22. | :26:24. | |
and there could be patchy cloud coming and going with mist patches | :26:25. | :26:29. | |
into the early hours of the model. Temperatures anywhere between 14 and | :26:30. | :26:36. | |
17 degrees. The wind will ease overnight with a much lighter | :26:37. | :26:40. | |
pleased by the end of the night. It will pick up by tomorrow, which will | :26:41. | :26:44. | |
be a rather warm and sunny day. There will be a long spells of | :26:45. | :26:48. | |
sunshine, the breeze once more picks up and that will mean truly | :26:49. | :26:51. | |
temperatures on the course. Further inland that will be welcome, the | :26:52. | :26:58. | |
breeze, like it was today. We could record 27 or 28 degrees. Possibly | :26:59. | :27:04. | |
lower for Essex and Suffolk. It stays fine with one spells of | :27:05. | :27:08. | |
sunshine for the afternoon. Looking ahead there are some subtle changes | :27:09. | :27:12. | |
on the way, a cold front is sleeping through for Saturday and cool, fresh | :27:13. | :27:18. | |
air. But we have high pressure behind that will keep things | :27:19. | :27:22. | |
relatively settled. As for the next few days, increasing cloud into the | :27:23. | :27:26. | |
afternoon could produce an isolated shower, and there is still the risk | :27:27. | :27:31. | |
introduced for Sunday and introduced for Sunday and | :27:32. | :27:33. | |
temperatures getting cooler into the mid`20s. | :27:34. | :27:37. | |
Thank you very much. That's all for now. Goodbye. | :27:38. | :27:39. |
