:00:00. > :00:00.Hello welcome to a special edition of Look East -

:00:07. > :00:07.celebrating Milton Keynes 50th birthday.

:00:08. > :00:09.We're at Bletchley, famed home of the World

:00:10. > :00:11.War Two Code Breakers, and a foundation for

:00:12. > :00:19.We'll trace the history and growth of MK -

:00:20. > :00:24.and meet the people who made it their home.

:00:25. > :00:27.We also ask what next for MK - with pressures for more housing,

:00:28. > :00:35.And find out how a thriving sporting scene has evolved -

:00:36. > :00:41.and why the local Ice Hockey team is hitting the big time.

:00:42. > :00:44.The mother of a Hertfordshire author whose body was found

:00:45. > :00:46.in a septic tank tells a court her

:00:47. > :01:03.daughter had complained of feeling spaced out before she went missing.

:01:04. > :01:09.You join me at the biggest birthday party Milton Keynes has ever seen.

:01:10. > :01:11.50 years ago today, MK was formed from a collection

:01:12. > :01:14.of rural villages and it's grown to a town of over

:01:15. > :01:25.It was a government plan to tackle a housing shortage - and it worked!

:01:26. > :01:27.Well, the great and the good have gathered here at

:01:28. > :01:32.Bletchley is one of the oldest parts of MK,

:01:33. > :01:34.famous for the World War II code breakers who cracked

:01:35. > :01:40.And tonight we'll be decifering what the future holds for MK,

:01:41. > :01:53.We'll hear from some of the people here in a moment.

:01:54. > :01:56.The first little to the beginning and speak to those who take their

:01:57. > :02:09.turns and made this place the home. When millions first got a glimpse of

:02:10. > :02:12.Milton Keynes, a boy and a bowling, a trip through the new town. An ad

:02:13. > :02:17.campaign to tempt more people to move your. No building should be

:02:18. > :02:23.higher than the tallest tree, that is what the planners first set but

:02:24. > :02:29.of course there would be a lot of buildings and that would not change.

:02:30. > :02:37.Diane Sutton moved four times in 40 years, the last to hear from the --

:02:38. > :02:41.ready world an exhibition was held. Kill my neighbour built by

:02:42. > :02:46.architect, the left-hand one for his own home on the right-hand one was

:02:47. > :02:50.his office. It was a new way to build. She lives in one of the first

:02:51. > :02:57.estate. She worked at the university based here. For how NK is a place of

:02:58. > :03:01.firsts. I could see Milton Keynes would be a great place to live, it

:03:02. > :03:10.is a place that was not scared to do things that other people have not

:03:11. > :03:13.done before, we have the first big shopping centre in central Milton

:03:14. > :03:21.Keynes. We have the first multiscreen cinema at the point.

:03:22. > :03:26.From a handful of houses and became the most ambitious new term project.

:03:27. > :03:30.Built on a grid system, roads and pathways -- Rose and pathways apart.

:03:31. > :03:35.But this is where the formal ground-breaking happened in January

:03:36. > :03:42.1967 next to the old A5, only 16 people here, businessmen Jim White

:03:43. > :03:48.one of them. The only reason it is here is that the main trunk road

:03:49. > :03:55.limitation of what was behind us. Everything behind as was basically

:03:56. > :03:59.feels right to Newport Pagnell. Warehouses here are now super-sized,

:04:00. > :04:05.more than 10,000 businesses are tastier. Among them is this

:04:06. > :04:08.business, small to start but its reach is global. It is a shop

:04:09. > :04:12.window, you have many customers coming from right to see us into

:04:13. > :04:18.that is quite important that we are in a dynamic working environment

:04:19. > :04:27.like Milton Keynes. It has been very good to us here. We employ something

:04:28. > :04:31.in the order of 450 people now, and 55% of output was abroad. They made

:04:32. > :04:35.fun of its roundabouts but today it is one of the fastest-growing towns

:04:36. > :04:37.in the country. The new kid on the block has grown up. Hasn't it aged

:04:38. > :04:42.well? Well thoughts now turn

:04:43. > :04:44.to the next 50 years, many of the people here tonight

:04:45. > :04:47.will be making decisions about how It's already one of the fastest

:04:48. > :04:51.growing places in the UK. And what does all that mean

:04:52. > :04:53.for jobs and infrastructure. Stuart Ratcliffe has been

:04:54. > :05:09.looking at MK's future. Milton Keynes disguised as

:05:10. > :05:14.Metropolis, its futuristic buildings selected to double as Clark Kent's,

:05:15. > :05:21.city but 30 years on from Superman's flying visit, MK has grown into its

:05:22. > :05:28.own mini metropolis. But in the next 50 years: that growth continue? The

:05:29. > :05:30.choice under discussion is there is Milton Keynes with the wonderful

:05:31. > :05:35.grid pattern and grid squares of development, as that keep spreading

:05:36. > :05:42.out or do we draw the stop in some places? And maybe have some baby

:05:43. > :05:48.tends her daughter attends? Which way do you think it will develop? My

:05:49. > :05:51.personal view is that there are certain points were Milton Keynes

:05:52. > :05:56.has spread far enough and we should have daughter towns. These areas are

:05:57. > :06:01.apparently being developed for housing but by 2036 these areas

:06:02. > :06:06.could also follow and many think that the key to growth is transport.

:06:07. > :06:11.The M1 and West Coast Main line already offer easy access to

:06:12. > :06:16.Birmingham and London. Travelling cross-country is less easy but that

:06:17. > :06:20.could be about to change. After years of delay east-west rail

:06:21. > :06:24.servicing will become a reality, as platforms you are Milton Keynes is

:06:25. > :06:28.especially designed to accommodate those services so by 2021 you will

:06:29. > :06:32.be able to get trains from here to Oxford and to Aylesbury and at some

:06:33. > :06:38.point in the future hopefully to Cambridge as well. The government

:06:39. > :06:43.also supports plans for a east-west road, an idea supported by many NK

:06:44. > :06:51.businesses but crucially the business here is a terror across not

:06:52. > :06:54.only continues but is accelerated. There is a challenge. All Over The

:06:55. > :06:59.Place Asia building of new housing but I think that our site allocated

:07:00. > :07:06.to housing and it is the pace of building that housing and making it

:07:07. > :07:14.available. Would you like to see the pace quickened? Everywhere able to

:07:15. > :07:19.do that more quickly it would encourage more businesses to the

:07:20. > :07:25.area. Across town and the very different business, where Hewitt the

:07:26. > :07:29.hope for MK's future is far better further and higher education. Of our

:07:30. > :07:33.concerns and we have noticed in recent years is the shortage of

:07:34. > :07:38.semiskilled labour, obviously we assemble equipment here and we need

:07:39. > :07:44.access to a good pool of trained people. There is a concern moving

:07:45. > :07:49.forward that we still have access to that. Because of its success in the

:07:50. > :07:54.last 50 years expectations about how NK will evolve over the next 50 are

:07:55. > :08:00.understandably high. The question is how and will NK deliver? The bottom

:08:01. > :08:04.line is MK leads to grow. But how? I'm joined by leader

:08:05. > :08:06.of the council Peter Marland, and the local MP for Bletchley Ian

:08:07. > :08:15.Stewart. We have heard you will need more

:08:16. > :08:23.housing, or will it go? Will the green belt be built on? You build

:08:24. > :08:26.up? We don't have green belt in Milton Keynes but the good thing

:08:27. > :08:30.about the planning is it allows local people to say where they want

:08:31. > :08:33.housing. Milton Keynes expected once growth, it is just about affording

:08:34. > :08:40.the infrastructure that comes with growth. We have always had schools

:08:41. > :08:44.and hospitals in GP surgeries are showing local people the benefits of

:08:45. > :08:47.growth is the main thing. We have heard the ideas of building new

:08:48. > :08:54.settlements along what will be a new real line. How important is that

:08:55. > :08:57.transport? We need an economy for the 21st-century advert we are

:08:58. > :09:01.between Oxford and Cambridge and London and Birmingham gives us a

:09:02. > :09:04.fantastic opportunity with knowledge intensive jobs and making sure we

:09:05. > :09:08.have the right skills for the jobs that are coming not now but in the

:09:09. > :09:13.next 10-15 years around robotics so what we need to do is make sure we

:09:14. > :09:16.have the right skills and knowledge base and really attract those people

:09:17. > :09:22.and make sure we are attracting the right sort of people, like we have

:09:23. > :09:26.in the past. Thank you. Ian Stewart you're one of the local MPs,

:09:27. > :09:30.Conservative MP, the Transport Secretary has been in the region

:09:31. > :09:36.today. We had a lot about rail links in the new East rest -- East West

:09:37. > :09:40.rail link, the funniest to develop it but the money has not been

:09:41. > :09:45.committed to build these things. When will that happen? Just before

:09:46. > :09:49.Christmas the Transport Secretary announced he was setting up a new

:09:50. > :09:53.company to build the east-west line in a completely new way, I see a

:09:54. > :09:59.commonage in government and private financing forehead. You also have to

:10:00. > :10:02.look at this project in the context of the Milton Keynes Cambridge

:10:03. > :10:06.corridor and I think that'll be one of the most exciting developments we

:10:07. > :10:11.have. If we planning properly this will unlock so much economic growth,

:10:12. > :10:15.Milton Keynes's success was based on its good planning design, and now we

:10:16. > :10:19.have reached the initial aspirations for modern Keynes, there was the

:10:20. > :10:24.time to look ahead at the decades to come and I think both the railway

:10:25. > :10:30.and expressway will unlock much of that development. Are you reassured

:10:31. > :10:34.by that, Peter? When I first came on the council I thought the delivery

:10:35. > :10:37.date was 20 17th express rail, I don't see the station opening any

:10:38. > :10:40.time since I think it is one of those things that has been around

:10:41. > :10:44.for at least 30 years. You speak to people who came on Bill Milton

:10:45. > :10:47.Keynes and they said it was one of the original ideas while I think

:10:48. > :10:51.there is always noises around I do think we need some proper movement

:10:52. > :10:57.and commitment around delivery and I hope, I just hope that this time is

:10:58. > :11:01.the time it will be delivered rather than promises. A brief word about

:11:02. > :11:07.skills. We had the prime ministers new plans for technical centres,

:11:08. > :11:10.could MK deal with one of those? Absolutely, if you look at the

:11:11. > :11:15.futures commission 's report that came out last year one of the

:11:16. > :11:18.central recommendations was MK IT, a technology University here in Milton

:11:19. > :11:23.Keynes and I think that absolutely plays in with the government's

:11:24. > :11:32.aspirations that they set out in the industrial strategy today. It is one

:11:33. > :11:33.idea. Thank you very much. Let's go to the studio for a round-up of the

:11:34. > :11:36.rest of the day 's news. whose body was found in a septic

:11:37. > :11:41.tank at her home in Royston has told a court her daughter had

:11:42. > :11:43.complained of feeling In the weeks before

:11:44. > :11:46.she went missing. Helen Bailey's mother Eileen also

:11:47. > :11:51.said he felt "uneasy" about her daughter's relationship

:11:52. > :11:52.with Ian Stewart. He denies drugging her with sleeping

:11:53. > :12:05.pills and murdering her. The court heard today how Helen

:12:06. > :12:09.Bailey had suffered from memory lapses and felt dizzy and spaced out

:12:10. > :12:14.in the weeks and months before her disappearance in April last year.

:12:15. > :12:18.The jury heard from Helen's mother Eileen Sidhu video link from the

:12:19. > :12:24.Berlin. He said on one occasion Helen was left traumatised after

:12:25. > :12:28.we've -- after realising she had left her beloved on the beach. We

:12:29. > :12:32.had just one week before she went missing Helen had called her mum

:12:33. > :12:40.sending anxious after waking from a five hour sleep in the middle of the

:12:41. > :12:42.day. Eileen Bailey broke down in tears after giving evidence, she

:12:43. > :12:47.said she also felt uneasy about Helen's relationship with Ian

:12:48. > :12:50.Stewart do the state of mind. A police interview with the defendant

:12:51. > :12:56.was played in court and we have from one of the officers involved. DC

:12:57. > :13:00.holiday in the set I often found him rich temperamental uncooperative and

:13:01. > :13:05.dismissive of us. After the first interview she said he had asked and

:13:06. > :13:10.I still suspect? I must be. I must be a suspect. Helen Bailey's body

:13:11. > :13:15.was found in a cesspit under her home in Royston after she vanished

:13:16. > :13:19.in April last year. The prosecution claimed that Ian Stewart said he

:13:20. > :13:24.fiancee with sleeping pills before killing her for her money. Ian

:13:25. > :13:28.Stewart denies murder, perverting the course of justice, fraud and

:13:29. > :13:33.preventing a waffle burial. The case will continue on Wednesday. -- and

:13:34. > :13:35.preventing a lawful burial. Police divers have been searching

:13:36. > :13:38.a lake in Northamptonshire today trying to track down

:13:39. > :13:40.the killer of a pensioner. David Brickwood was murdered

:13:41. > :13:42.in his own home in Northampton So far no one has been

:13:43. > :13:46.arrested for his murder, and police are yet to

:13:47. > :13:58.find the murder weapon. Searching the icy water at Eastfield

:13:59. > :14:02.Park, more than one year after 74-year-old David Brickwood was

:14:03. > :14:06.murdered in his own home. Police today looking for any clue to help

:14:07. > :14:14.track down his killer. We have never located the weather -- the weapon

:14:15. > :14:17.that killed David, and we do not know his address at the states we

:14:18. > :14:19.are looking for anything that could be a weapon that harms David or

:14:20. > :14:24.anything that could have come from his address. David Brickwood,

:14:25. > :14:29.described as an honest and caring man was asleep in his own bed when

:14:30. > :14:33.he was stabbed five times in what police described as a dreadful and

:14:34. > :14:37.violent attack. David Brickwood's home was less than one mile in that

:14:38. > :14:42.direction, just a few streets away from the park year. Police say the

:14:43. > :14:45.dead not have any specific evidence linking the area but that if you

:14:46. > :14:51.want to get rid of something from the property here would be the

:14:52. > :14:56.natural place. Despite appeals including one on the BBC's

:14:57. > :15:01.Crimewatch programme questions remain about exactly what happened.

:15:02. > :15:07.It has been some time since David's murder, why are we now further on?

:15:08. > :15:09.It has been a difficult investigation, at the moment we are

:15:10. > :15:12.trying to work through a lot of the information we had but at the moment

:15:13. > :15:17.we have not been able to notify any suspects. Police say they will

:15:18. > :15:20.continue to do they can to bring David's killer to justice.

:15:21. > :15:21.The union at Kettering based Weetabix

:15:22. > :15:23.says industrial action has been put on hold

:15:24. > :15:28.Workers voted in favour of industrial action in December

:15:29. > :15:34.Staff are to be balloted on a revised offer.

:15:35. > :15:36.Cambridgeshire snooker player Joe Perry hopes the experience

:15:37. > :15:45.Led Ronnie O'Sullivan 4-1 in yesterday's Masters final.

:15:46. > :15:48.But he eventually lost by ten frames to seven.

:15:49. > :15:58.and came so close to his greatest triumph.

:15:59. > :16:01.That's all from me, now back to Clare, who's in Bletchley

:16:02. > :16:08.as Milton Keynes Celebrates its 50th birthday.

:16:09. > :16:11.Welcome back to Bletchley Park, where the MK 50 party

:16:12. > :16:22.We are looking at the history of Milton Keynes and some futuristic

:16:23. > :16:26.things, there are people swinging around on hover boards and suchlike.

:16:27. > :16:31.Away from such frivolity we have been looking at a government plan to

:16:32. > :16:35.build new housing of great a new community and haven't really worked

:16:36. > :16:39.here, and for people who have not been to Milton Keynes, if that is

:16:40. > :16:42.you, what are you thinking? There are also some rather unkind

:16:43. > :16:45.stereotypes that have developed over the years and I have been out and

:16:46. > :16:49.about in the town to debunk some of those myths.

:16:50. > :16:57.Welcome to one of Milton Keynes's many roundabouts. It is the

:16:58. > :17:02.foundation of myth number one, the Milton Keynes is no more than a lot

:17:03. > :17:08.of traffic flows and concrete. Not from where I'm standing, as you can

:17:09. > :17:11.see the parks and lakes everywhere. It is a fantastic place for

:17:12. > :17:18.everyone. There is no one who lives more than a quarter of a mile from a

:17:19. > :17:22.piece of lovely good-quality Park, open space, lakes, woodlands, we

:17:23. > :17:25.have it all here and it really does make for a fantastic quality of

:17:26. > :17:31.life. There is even greenery in shopping centres, and it is here

:17:32. > :17:35.that you find myth number two, that it is all chain stores and chain

:17:36. > :17:40.restaurants, to the point that it is a bit bland with no real history, no

:17:41. > :17:46.real soul. Transit Milton Keynes has quite a lot of old shops, too, he

:17:47. > :17:50.led the museum. Here we are in the heart of Victorian Milton Keynes and

:17:51. > :17:54.there was an iron mongers just the. If you go down the road to Stratford

:17:55. > :17:58.which is one of the old coaching tends you will still find

:17:59. > :18:03.old-fashioned iron mongers that people from all over the region

:18:04. > :18:08.actually come to because you can get absolutely everything. Milton Keynes

:18:09. > :18:13.has its quirks and plenty of independent traders, but what about

:18:14. > :18:17.the people who live here? Myth number three would say they do not

:18:18. > :18:22.have a shared identity or passions. Not according to the editor of the

:18:23. > :18:26.local paper. People are passionate about it, especially those whose

:18:27. > :18:31.roots are here but also the community is made up of so many more

:18:32. > :18:34.people that have come here on the back of a job or to move here

:18:35. > :18:40.because it is a lovely place to live. We need to pull together and

:18:41. > :18:46.it does work in that sense. Finally the biggest myth of all, that this

:18:47. > :18:51.place is a city. It is not, Milton Keynes officially is a town. Try

:18:52. > :18:54.telling the locals that. We know it is a city. I've known Milton Keynes

:18:55. > :19:01.right from the beginning. You have everything here, shops, community

:19:02. > :19:09.centres, hospital, lovely hospital. More of a city because it is huge. I

:19:10. > :19:15.think it is a city. I think the size of it qualifies as a city but it is

:19:16. > :19:19.not officially one yet. I have always called it a city, I have been

:19:20. > :19:25.your 15 years and everyone refers to it as a city and that is good enough

:19:26. > :19:30.for me. If we think it is a city and we call it a city then it is a city.

:19:31. > :19:32.One thing that may help any future bids for city status is the thriving

:19:33. > :19:34.sporting scene here. There's a successful

:19:35. > :19:36.football team the MK Dons. It's established itself

:19:37. > :19:38.as the home of UK Badminton. And there's also the MK

:19:39. > :19:40.Lightning Ice Hockey team. Next season they are moving

:19:41. > :19:45.up to play in the top flight for the first time

:19:46. > :19:47.in the clubs history. Our Sports Editor

:19:48. > :20:05.Jonathan Parks reports. They say ice hockey is the world's

:20:06. > :20:10.fastest team sport, fill of tactics, speed and ordered dustup. Milton

:20:11. > :20:13.Keynes has a team to be proud of. It is Thursday night and this is MK

:20:14. > :20:17.lining's search training session of the week. They have big ambitions

:20:18. > :20:21.and they are leaving nothing to chance ahead of an important match

:20:22. > :20:28.with Guildford. Founded 14 years ago, the lightning player -- play at

:20:29. > :20:33.planet ice. Crowds have gone up but there is always for more. 1% more

:20:34. > :20:37.easily fill this place every Saturday. Would be nice to read and

:20:38. > :20:41.get that out there and people would realise it would help this club and

:20:42. > :20:46.put it to another level. In the locker room a local hero, the

:20:47. > :20:55.defence man Jacob. We have played some good hockey and put on some

:20:56. > :21:03.good performances. Magistrate, 2000 fans arrive for the lightning versus

:21:04. > :21:07.the flames in the premiership. My first game was in 2011 and I have

:21:08. > :21:12.been hooked since. Your football fans but he changed ice hockey.

:21:13. > :21:20.Absolutely, we find football boring now. Back in the locker room, the

:21:21. > :21:30.calm before the storm. Before the lightning strikes. The lining's

:21:31. > :21:35.task, keep the pressure on the league leaders and beat Guildford

:21:36. > :21:41.and they are on a mission excepted by Jordan Cody. They were on their

:21:42. > :21:45.way to another win. Things are pretty good for them on the ice at

:21:46. > :21:50.the moment, they are on course for what could be a historic treble.

:21:51. > :21:55.They are in the cup final, doing well in the league and there is the

:21:56. > :22:00.play-offs. They could live up to the country's top division and that

:22:01. > :22:04.requires a big investment. They would like to visit a predominantly

:22:05. > :22:10.British squad. Guildford four back by lightning were fitter, stronger

:22:11. > :22:13.and more clinical. It is about trying to educate people and getting

:22:14. > :22:19.them into the building. Once people have seen MK lining play once they

:22:20. > :22:24.want to come back for more. They won the match 5-2, they are not the

:22:25. > :22:29.best-known sports team in Milton Keynes but they are exciting to

:22:30. > :22:32.watch and is the know how to put on a show.

:22:33. > :22:35.Well of course the sport people probably think of first when it

:22:36. > :22:37.comes to Milton Keynes is football and the MK Dons.

:22:38. > :22:40.The Chairman Pete Winkleman is with me - Pete how engaged

:22:41. > :22:46.-- you one this weekend, did you? Thank goodness we got it right in

:22:47. > :22:51.time for the Bradley! With a new team how easy is it to get people I

:22:52. > :22:55.do? You do not have a history of old clubs. Very different in that

:22:56. > :22:58.respect, everyone has come from somewhere else and it is about

:22:59. > :23:01.making as the second favourite team to start with and maybe the kids

:23:02. > :23:06.their first visit but we concentrate on the kids, Milton Keynes is a

:23:07. > :23:10.place for families and so it is about making sure the young people

:23:11. > :23:14.grow up with MK Dons as the local football team and we getting slowly.

:23:15. > :23:18.We have heard about a shortage of space and needing more housing,

:23:19. > :23:21.unique MySpace rear training don't you? We do and hopefully the Bradley

:23:22. > :23:25.will bring some good news in the next few weeks. There are a lot of

:23:26. > :23:30.people making sure everyone knows that every business in Milton Keynes

:23:31. > :23:33.has the opportunity to grow. We are a can-do place and that is what we

:23:34. > :23:39.are celebrating this birthday. Absolutely. Staying with sport and

:23:40. > :23:42.over to downhill skiing because we have our weather tonight from the

:23:43. > :23:46.snow dome as it has been pretty chilly.

:23:47. > :23:50.You join me in the cold spot in Milton Keynes,

:23:51. > :23:56.actually the cold spot in the region. We are at the snow is on

:23:57. > :24:00.where you can do some skiing on the 170 metres slope. 1600 tonnes of

:24:01. > :24:06.real snow media and the temperature at the moment where my hands are as

:24:07. > :24:11.about -10 degrees on the ground. If you copy at the weekend -- you could

:24:12. > :24:16.have come here at the weekend for a warm up because it was colder than

:24:17. > :24:19.this at the weekend. It is fog that concerns us in the coming days,

:24:20. > :24:23.again like this morning we have a Met Office weather warning to start

:24:24. > :24:27.the day. It is running right now until 11 o'clock tomorrow morning.

:24:28. > :24:34.This morning we start with mist and fog, you can see it on the satellite

:24:35. > :24:38.picture. It was slow to clear in some places, and the visibility is

:24:39. > :24:41.less than 100 metres. Eventually get brightness do with mist and fog

:24:42. > :24:44.reforming melon continues to do so as you go this evening and

:24:45. > :24:49.overnight. It could give us some real issues first thing in the

:24:50. > :24:55.morning. Visibility lesson 100 metres in some spots. Temperatures

:24:56. > :25:00.down as low as -2 at the perhaps in some spots minus four degrees. A

:25:01. > :25:07.slow start tomorrow, the Met office warning in force until 11am and then

:25:08. > :25:11.the fog lifts to close. The afternoon is dry and settled but

:25:12. > :25:15.with the mist and fog has been slow to clear the temperatures could

:25:16. > :25:20.struggle. Typically 4 degrees but it could be one or two. Tomorrow

:25:21. > :25:23.evening overnight into Wednesday we do it all again, the moment

:25:24. > :25:26.high-pressure is in control of the weather and for much of this week it

:25:27. > :25:31.means it is pretty benign but it also gives us at risk with a light

:25:32. > :25:35.winds, we see the mist and fog we form overnight into Wednesday. Then

:25:36. > :25:39.the temperatures come down again, -2 minus three. I met in the

:25:40. > :25:43.high-pressure, we continue with it to the end of the week but actually

:25:44. > :25:48.we start to see the wind picking up on Wednesday and settle into

:25:49. > :25:51.Thursday. Wednesday itself should be rather fine, we start with mist and

:25:52. > :25:55.fog but the chance of some brightness in the afternoon though

:25:56. > :26:00.up, top temperature of 4-6 . up, top temperature of 4-6 .

:26:01. > :26:03.Thursday we noticed the strengthening of the wind and

:26:04. > :26:06.actually that will make it feel really rather more for you but the

:26:07. > :26:12.one thing it does do is diminish the risk of mist and fog. Into Friday it

:26:13. > :26:16.is dry and settled but something milder, and that is how it looks

:26:17. > :26:20.into the weekend. This is the cold spot in the region, and I think it

:26:21. > :26:22.will continue to be so through this week but Frost and fog for the next

:26:23. > :26:31.couple of nights. That is almost always have time for

:26:32. > :26:35.but on BBC One at 7:30pm there will be a more in-depth look on the

:26:36. > :26:40.evolution Milton Keynes, that is an inside out on BBC One at 730 but we

:26:41. > :26:41.return to the party now and course there is a cake, the will cut the

:26:42. > :26:58.cake. Please do! Go for it! Happy birthday Milton Keynes. The

:26:59. > :27:02.cake is cut in the party continues. We will be live on Facebook so do

:28:10. > :28:12.He's definitely battling some demons.

:28:13. > :28:14.If they have a fear of water, God help them.
