:00:00. > :00:08.No new HQ for Northamptonshire Police as controversial plans

:00:09. > :00:25.The best thing to do for the taxpayers of Northamptonshire that

:00:26. > :00:27.drives the best value but is also good for the staff and provides the

:00:28. > :00:30.certainty that was missing. Easing congestion and

:00:31. > :00:32.boosting the economy... The new plans for the

:00:33. > :00:34.Black Cat roundabout. The new living wage

:00:35. > :00:36.and its impact on care homes... Many businesses say they'll

:00:37. > :00:38.struggle to survive. And the region's top music venue

:00:39. > :00:43.plays host to hundreds of schoolchildren hoping to hit

:00:44. > :00:45.the right note in Ten months after agreeing to sell

:00:46. > :01:10.its Wootton Hall headquarters, Northamptonshire Police has today

:01:11. > :01:12.announced it wants to stay put. The previous Police

:01:13. > :01:14.and Crime Commissioner, Adam Simmonds, agreed the sale

:01:15. > :01:16.on his final day in the job. Now his successor has

:01:17. > :01:18.done an about-turn. But first this report

:01:19. > :01:26.from Tom Percival. This was meant to be the site

:01:27. > :01:31.of a new headquarters for police and fire

:01:32. > :01:33.services in Northamptonshire. Cherry Hall Road in Kettering

:01:34. > :01:36.will still be built, but it will more longer now

:01:37. > :01:38.be an HQ. Selling this site would have

:01:39. > :01:43.netted the force three The then Police and Crime

:01:44. > :01:47.Commissioner, Adam Simmonds, who approved the sale,

:01:48. > :01:50.said a modern police force did not An HQ that holds onto 400 people

:01:51. > :01:55.that are not actually police officers but back office staff,

:01:56. > :02:01.is not necessary, they can be in police stations,

:02:02. > :02:04.and other operational buildings. And this is a police HQ that is

:02:05. > :02:07.quite remote from the public. Most of the public don't ever come

:02:08. > :02:10.here, they would not know where it was, and it might

:02:11. > :02:13.have a reputation for having thousands of police officers,

:02:14. > :02:15.but it doesn't have that and it is not fit for

:02:16. > :02:17.the 21st century any more. But ten months and one

:02:18. > :02:20.new Police and Crime Now, Northamptonshire Police have

:02:21. > :02:25.said they do need Wootton Hall It is not fit for purpose,

:02:26. > :02:30.it is not fit for purpose now. What the PCC now, Stephen Mold,

:02:31. > :02:33.has said is that he will That's an option that

:02:34. > :02:36.was not available before. If we do nothing on this site

:02:37. > :02:39.but leave it as it is, it will become even less fit

:02:40. > :02:42.for purpose in the future. I am very excited about this

:02:43. > :02:45.announcement because Stephen Mold has promised the investment

:02:46. > :02:48.to develop this site, to make it a truly shared site,

:02:49. > :02:54.creating new opportunities with us to work with the other emergency

:02:55. > :02:56.services and with other partners to help us to better protect people

:02:57. > :03:04.from harm in this county. Good news for police staff, though,

:03:05. > :03:07.is bad news for Wootton Park School. The plan had been for it

:03:08. > :03:10.to move into Wootton Hall That will no longer now happen,

:03:11. > :03:13.meaning its students will continue to be taught in these temporary

:03:14. > :03:16.classrooms, while plans are drawn up for a new permanent home elsewhere

:03:17. > :03:21.on the Wootton Hall grounds. A site which ten months ago

:03:22. > :03:26.was remote and not fit for purpose will now be retained,

:03:27. > :03:28.and in some parts, rebuilt. Northamptonshire Police have said

:03:29. > :03:32.that overall the decision not to leave Wootton Hall will actually

:03:33. > :03:35.save money in the long term. But questions remain over how much

:03:36. > :03:38.has been spent on legal fees in pursuit of an ambitious move

:03:39. > :03:46.which will no longer happen. Earlier I spoke to Stephen Mold,

:03:47. > :03:50.the current Police and Crime I asked him why he made

:03:51. > :03:53.the decision to keep It's the best thing

:03:54. > :04:00.to do for the taxpayers of Northamptonshire,

:04:01. > :04:02.it drives the best value, but also it is good for the staff

:04:03. > :04:05.and provides them certainty And thankfully, with the great

:04:06. > :04:10.work we have been doing with the education funding

:04:11. > :04:13.authority, it means that actually we can keep the school

:04:14. > :04:16.there and we can build on the bonds that were originally

:04:17. > :04:18.conceived for the idea. But this is a complete U-turn

:04:19. > :04:23.on what your predecessor Adam Simmonds had planned,

:04:24. > :04:26.it is quite a bold move, isn't it? Well, it was kind of

:04:27. > :04:30.a situation that I inherited. The deal was signed on the afternoon

:04:31. > :04:34.after I was elected but before I took office, and quite frankly,

:04:35. > :04:37.I was given some significant costs And really, given the challenge

:04:38. > :04:44.of keeping people safe in Northamptonshire,

:04:45. > :04:49.it is right that we do the right thing, but also we get

:04:50. > :04:52.to keep the school as well. So are you saying that the sale

:04:53. > :04:55.was the wrong decision Let us put it this way,

:04:56. > :05:02.it is not a decision I would have made had I been the Police

:05:03. > :05:04.and Crime Commissioner at that time, otherwise we would not have made

:05:05. > :05:07.the decision we have got now And what about the financial

:05:08. > :05:10.implications here? How much money has already been

:05:11. > :05:13.spent that could have been saved? To be honest, yes, there has been

:05:14. > :05:16.some money that has been spent, But actually it is the human cost

:05:17. > :05:21.that worries me more because actually we have created

:05:22. > :05:24.uncertainty for police staff, it has How much confidence can the people

:05:25. > :05:32.of Northamptonshire have in the decision that you have made

:05:33. > :05:35.today given the fact that it is very different from the decision

:05:36. > :05:40.that was made just last year? I think probably for the first time

:05:41. > :05:43.we have a joint decision that is the right decision,

:05:44. > :05:45.that means that we are better And also by saving an awful

:05:46. > :05:49.lot of public money, because we were going to be spending

:05:50. > :05:52.the best part of ?20 million decanting from Wootton Hall, with,

:05:53. > :05:57.you know, additional money that would then need to be spent

:05:58. > :05:59.to create a headquarters. That money can be put back

:06:00. > :06:08.into front-line policing. Plans to alleviate congestion at one

:06:09. > :06:10.of the region's busiest road junctions have been put out

:06:11. > :06:12.to public consultation. Improvements at the Black Cat

:06:13. > :06:15.roundabout on the A1 near St Neots and the dualling of the A428

:06:16. > :06:18.towards Cambridge would also bring economic benefits

:06:19. > :06:36.as Nicola Haseler reports. The A1 is now queueing at the

:06:37. > :06:45.approach to the roundabout. The approach is slow... The A1 is slow

:06:46. > :06:48.as usual. BBC Three Counties Radio. If you regularly travel by road

:06:49. > :06:54.around our region, you will have heard of the Black Cat roundabout.

:06:55. > :06:57.It links Cambridge with Bedford, Milton Keynes on the M1. For those

:06:58. > :07:03.who rely on it each day, the constant congestion is frustrating,

:07:04. > :07:09.unsafe and costly. You go out there, any day of the week from about three

:07:10. > :07:14.o'clock onwards, it is gridlock. But on a Friday, especially, from 2:30pm

:07:15. > :07:18.you have to allow at least one more hour on your journey to go to

:07:19. > :07:22.Cambridge, which had only to 40 minutes. Those who live in the

:07:23. > :07:29.surrounding villages have said they are fed up of being used as a rat

:07:30. > :07:34.run. It was a really nice village as now absolutely terrible. It is a rat

:07:35. > :07:40.run right through to Cambridge. So we get car speeding through the

:07:41. > :07:42.spillage. Going north and south it always avoid the Black Cat

:07:43. > :07:46.roundabout because it is so often jammed up. Highways England is

:07:47. > :07:50.proposing three different ideas, which could include removing the

:07:51. > :07:55.roundabout and creating a motorway style junction. Building a new

:07:56. > :08:02.section of dual carriageway to link it to the A428 and alarming the A1

:08:03. > :08:04.to freely underneath it. Well, all three of the options will relieve

:08:05. > :08:08.this rush-hour congestion that has built up on all sides of the

:08:09. > :08:14.roundabout and fixing the traffic problems here will be the start of

:08:15. > :08:19.building the new Cambridge to Oxford Expressway, linking the east to the

:08:20. > :08:25.west. Where one proposed route follows the existing A428, the other

:08:26. > :08:30.two would run through the existing Cambridgeshire countryside. The two

:08:31. > :08:32.existing options run through the local parish and people will be

:08:33. > :08:36.concerned about that. The bottom line is that something must be done,

:08:37. > :08:40.but not at any cost. We want to make sure that I was England listen to

:08:41. > :08:45.what we have to say to them and actually select the appropriate

:08:46. > :08:51.option. And you can give your views on the plans until April the 23rd.

:08:52. > :08:54.Last night we shared the story of a new night shelter opening

:08:55. > :08:56.in Northampton to cope with the increasing number

:08:57. > :08:58.of people in our region sleeping on the streets.

:08:59. > :09:01.Tonight we're at Milton Keynes' winter night shelter.

:09:02. > :09:03.For many people it's their only chance to find somewhere

:09:04. > :09:06.warm to sleep at night, but from next week it'll close.

:09:07. > :09:12.Mike Cartwright is there for us tonight.

:09:13. > :09:21.Mike. We filmed before the scheme got

:09:22. > :09:24.underway in November and we are back before it finishes next week. This

:09:25. > :09:32.is the old bus station which is now empty but if you are a rough sleeper

:09:33. > :09:35.and Milton Keynes and you come here at 5:30pm they will assess you and

:09:36. > :09:38.if you qualify they will bus you off the seven churches in this area you

:09:39. > :09:41.can get a bed for the night. This is where they will be going tonight. It

:09:42. > :09:46.is the Baptist church at Newport Pagnell, we were there earlier. Each

:09:47. > :09:51.church can sleep around 15 people per night, they have around 450

:09:52. > :09:55.volunteers and this is the fifth season that this has been going.

:09:56. > :10:00.These are the volunteers you tonight providing hot links and food before

:10:01. > :10:04.they get bust. One of the volunteers is Jack Walker. Hello, Jack. He is

:10:05. > :10:09.the pastor of the church we have just seen. Jack, the number of

:10:10. > :10:14.homeless in this town is rising, why? Many reasons, one of which it

:10:15. > :10:18.is harder to get housing benefit, less people are entitled to it. It

:10:19. > :10:21.does not cover some of the rents. Half-life conspires against you, a

:10:22. > :10:26.relationship breaks down and you do not have much in of friends and

:10:27. > :10:31.family, you can end up on the street very easily. What needs to be done,

:10:32. > :10:36.what more help? What we do here is merely a sticking plaster. We do it

:10:37. > :10:39.because he can take people who have no money attached to them and there

:10:40. > :10:44.is nothing else out there for them. And half of the guests we take, we

:10:45. > :10:48.are the only hope. But we could do with doing this all year round or

:10:49. > :10:53.something similar, and at the moment we do it for the anti-half months in

:10:54. > :10:59.the worst of the winter. It finishes next week, what happens after that?

:11:00. > :11:01.Well, we are working absolutely tirelessly to get people into

:11:02. > :11:07.further accommodation during this period. If the worst comes to the

:11:08. > :11:10.worst, we give people a tent and a four seasons the greenback which

:11:11. > :11:14.does work and some of the churches will continue with the follow-up.

:11:15. > :11:20.And some of the other organisations to. But it is grim. It is grim. Jack

:11:21. > :11:27.Walker, thank you very much indeed. They will be leaving on their bosses

:11:28. > :11:28.very soon, they get a hot meal, bed and breakfast.

:11:29. > :11:34.But most will return here tomorrow night. Mike, thank you very much.

:11:35. > :11:36.Beet farmers in the region have criticised the supermarket giant

:11:37. > :11:39.Tesco for its decision to stop stocking Silver Spoon granulated

:11:40. > :11:42.The brand made from processed sugar beet has been replaced

:11:43. > :11:44.by rival Tate Lyle, which uses imported sugar cane.

:11:45. > :11:46.The National Farmers' Union has described the move

:11:47. > :11:52.as "hugely disappointing," as Kim Riley reports.

:11:53. > :11:54.It's a familiar landmark, the British Sugar factory

:11:55. > :11:59.Home to a plant that can produce four million 1 kg packs

:12:00. > :12:07.Across the other side of the A14, a branch of Tesco.

:12:08. > :12:10.So this superstore just could not be any closer

:12:11. > :12:14.to the Silver Spoon production line, but that does not really make any

:12:15. > :12:17.difference because if you pop in now, you're looking for a 1 kg

:12:18. > :12:23.bag of granulated sugar, this is what you get.

:12:24. > :12:27.That company's sugar cane is imported from around the globe.

:12:28. > :12:29.The sugar beet industry behind Silver Spoon supports some

:12:30. > :12:33.The company works with more than 3,000 growers and supplies 60%

:12:34. > :12:43.Many consumers in the region will know that we produce sugar beet

:12:44. > :12:47.to some of the highest standards in the world and it is processed

:12:48. > :12:52.in some of the most efficient factories, so it is a good industry

:12:53. > :12:56.and it is a pity that people do not have the opportunity to support it.

:12:57. > :13:00.If it comes to buying sugar, what would influence you?

:13:01. > :13:04.To be honest, I am not a big buyer of sugar in general,

:13:05. > :13:09.Tesco are not stocking the Silver Spoon version now,

:13:10. > :13:13.I would disagree with that because I would like to support

:13:14. > :13:15.the local farmers and local the business, particularly

:13:16. > :13:21.We tend not to buy a lot of sugar in bags like that anyway,

:13:22. > :13:23.but we would particularly probably choose sugar beet to support

:13:24. > :13:29.We probably should be thinking local, UK, rather

:13:30. > :13:32.than cheaper and abroad, but that is Tesco, isn't it?

:13:33. > :13:37.Tesco told us it aims to provide the best quality products and prices

:13:38. > :13:39.to its customers in a way that is fair to both

:13:40. > :13:46.It says it will continue to stock a combination of both Tate Lyle

:13:47. > :14:08.Now to Stewart and Susie for the rest of the programme.

:14:09. > :14:17.Stay with us for the hairdressers being trained to

:14:18. > :14:19.spot signs of domestic violence in their clients.

:14:20. > :14:21.Jules has got news of warmer weather to come.

:14:22. > :14:23.And hundreds of young people from across the

:14:24. > :14:30.region tuning up for the big concert tonight.

:14:31. > :14:32.The Chancellor Philip Hammond presents his first Budget

:14:33. > :14:36.and the care sector will be pinning its hopes on substantial help.

:14:37. > :14:39.The ageing population and uncertainty over Brexit are both

:14:40. > :14:43.combining to put pressure on council budgets.

:14:44. > :14:46.But that's not all. The impact of the Living Wage

:14:47. > :14:47.is already hitting the care home sector.

:14:48. > :14:51.a pay increase is good news for people on low wages,

:14:52. > :14:54.but the owners of some care homes say the added cost could force

:14:55. > :15:04.Another busy morning at Langdon House in Cambridge.

:15:05. > :15:07.51 people being cared for by up to 30 staff covering three

:15:08. > :15:11.The home already pays them above the Living Wage,

:15:12. > :15:14.with many people on up to ?10 per hour.

:15:15. > :15:25.We ask all of our staff to take level 2 and level

:15:26. > :15:31.And our managers have level 5 or degree qualifications.

:15:32. > :15:36.But Langdon House is in a more privileged position

:15:37. > :15:40.80% of its clients are privately funded, only 20% by the state.

:15:41. > :15:42.Meaning with careful budget planning they can tackle the Living Wage rise

:15:43. > :15:45.in salaries head on, or even ahead of time.

:15:46. > :15:50.I think they are being confronted with, you know,

:15:51. > :15:58.Do they need to change their business model?

:15:59. > :16:01.Do they need to move into taking in a different type of client?

:16:02. > :16:04.Do you think there are going to be some care homes that

:16:05. > :16:09.And there are care homes who have closed nationally over the years.

:16:10. > :16:12.Particularly small homes that won't be viable

:16:13. > :16:21.East Anglian law firm Ashtons recently hosted

:16:22. > :16:25.They asked care home bosses which would have more impact -

:16:26. > :16:28.Unexpectedly, two thirds said the latter.

:16:29. > :16:30.The main worry is how much councils will pay for care.

:16:31. > :16:38.The amounts which local authorities are able to pay is much

:16:39. > :16:41.lower than the rates which private people pay.

:16:42. > :16:45.And as wages are the biggest component of fixed cost,

:16:46. > :16:48.anything which drives up costs where revenue is following

:16:49. > :16:59.These students hoping to go into the sector say better salaries

:17:00. > :17:01.would encourage more people to do the same.

:17:02. > :17:04.There are things in the health care job that people don't want to do.

:17:05. > :17:07.Who doesn't like more money, I suppose?

:17:08. > :17:10.But it is, yeah, it sounds like a really good idea.

:17:11. > :17:13.Hopefully, it will tempt more people into the care system.

:17:14. > :17:15.With an ageing population, the demand for care home places

:17:16. > :17:22.The fear is, if managers haven't planned for the salary changes

:17:23. > :17:30.forecast for the next three years, their businesses may not survive.

:17:31. > :17:32.Our political correspondent Andrew Sinclair is here...the

:17:33. > :17:40.Chancellor will talk about social care tomorrow won't he?

:17:41. > :17:46.Yes, he was criticised in the Autumn Statement for not talking about

:17:47. > :17:51.social care. Everyone's council tax is going up next month to help pay

:17:52. > :17:55.for it. And yet, all the extra money is just a drop in the ocean. Partly

:17:56. > :18:01.because of the increase in the National Living Wage. Essex, the

:18:02. > :18:06.money through council tax will buy 11 days extra social care. We will

:18:07. > :18:13.are told we will get an announcement tomorrow about the future funding of

:18:14. > :18:18.social care. What else can we expect? The budget is likely to be

:18:19. > :18:25.big picture stuff. Not expecting big local announcements. Mainly because

:18:26. > :18:29.all the money for roads, rail and the like has been allocated for the

:18:30. > :18:33.foreseeable future. Perhaps extra money for Denbighshire because of

:18:34. > :18:41.devolution. Backtracking business rates which has upset businesses in

:18:42. > :18:44.our region. -- Cambridgeshire. And also this extra money for free

:18:45. > :18:48.schools and grammar schools. We won't get details tomorrow. But

:18:49. > :18:52.increasingly I am hearing speculation that those schools could

:18:53. > :18:55.be set up in places like Norfolk and Suffolk, and I think we will talk

:18:56. > :18:58.about this issue in the next year or so.

:18:59. > :19:01.For some women, a trip to the hairdressers is an opportunity -

:19:02. > :19:04.not just for a new look - it's chance to have a natter

:19:05. > :19:08.I know my hairdresser hears all sorts of stuff.

:19:09. > :19:11.It can be something very personal, something quite dark.

:19:12. > :19:13.When things are not going well at home,

:19:14. > :19:15.the special relationship between client and hairdresser

:19:16. > :19:17.is being seen as a way of tackling domestic abuse.

:19:18. > :19:29.So do you always go to the same hairdresser or do you

:19:30. > :19:33.For many, going to a hair salon isn't just a chance

:19:34. > :19:43.Sometimes my clients will sort of share their problems with me.

:19:44. > :19:46.If you can help at all, and you'll kind of advise them

:19:47. > :19:49.of something that has happened in my life and say, well,

:19:50. > :19:52.You know, you do kind of share problems, definitely.

:19:53. > :19:56.If you can confide in someone and sort of talk to them

:19:57. > :19:58.about anything, it's better than hiding these things in.

:19:59. > :20:02.I really do think it will benefit a lot of women that perhaps don't

:20:03. > :20:06.To Illinois, where law makers have proposed a new approach

:20:07. > :20:09.They are looking to the beauty profession to help spot

:20:10. > :20:13.It is thought to be the first law of its kind in America.

:20:14. > :20:15.It requires hairdressers to undergo training to recognise

:20:16. > :20:22.Now, this salon in Norwich has taken up the idea.

:20:23. > :20:25.In November, when I saw that Illinois in the USA has brought

:20:26. > :20:28.about a landmark decision to request that hairdressers are trained

:20:29. > :20:32.in domestic abuse, I decided that it would be a good opportunity for me

:20:33. > :20:39.to bring the two areas of my life together,

:20:40. > :20:41.owning a hair salon and working for Leeway.

:20:42. > :20:46.And what kind of signs are you looking for?

:20:47. > :20:49.It would be more of if a client feels that they can confide

:20:50. > :20:52.in their hairdresser and tell them about the experiences

:20:53. > :20:56.The idea here is supported by Leeway, which helps those

:20:57. > :20:59.The most dangerous point in any relationship where there

:21:00. > :21:01.is domestic abuse happening is the point of leaving.

:21:02. > :21:07.So the hairdressers will be able to support that person,

:21:08. > :21:10.explain that this is a dangerous time, and that there

:21:11. > :21:19.And in order to get that help, they can signpost them.

:21:20. > :21:21.Hairdressers are not being asked to become therapists,

:21:22. > :21:24.just to encourage their clients to get help.

:21:25. > :21:45.Every year - at about this time of the year -

:21:46. > :21:47.the music venue Snape Maltings in Suffolk has hosted

:21:48. > :21:55.And they wanted to make it a bit special.

:21:56. > :22:03.Will be taking part in rehearsals and a nightly concert.

:22:04. > :22:18.Snape Maltings, what an amazing venue for a school music concert.

:22:19. > :22:25.Children already up on stage hair ready to go on and on in just a few

:22:26. > :22:31.minutes time. If you look at the statistics here at Snape Maltings

:22:32. > :22:34.over history, 45,000 schoolchildren have performed on the stage. 90,000

:22:35. > :22:58.people have come here to see them. Over the years, some of the greatest

:22:59. > :23:02.names in classical music have performed at Snape Maltings.

:23:03. > :23:09.Alongside them, since 1987 pupils from Southwark have performed. It

:23:10. > :23:22.has become a much loved annual event, a celebration. This is the

:23:23. > :23:28.choir from Claydon high school. I am a keen musician. I play piano and

:23:29. > :23:35.guitar. We wear at two make a song for the celebration. -- we were

:23:36. > :23:41.asked to make a song. Its field the criteria and I was really excited to

:23:42. > :23:45.do the event. When our music has got told it was an opportunity, I

:23:46. > :23:51.thought that it was a great opportunity and something I really

:23:52. > :23:56.wanted to do. Performing at a big venue like Snape Maltings is a great

:23:57. > :24:01.opportunity to show what we can do. This year, a fresh challenge. Every

:24:02. > :24:03.school has to learn a new specially commissioned 30th anniversary song

:24:04. > :24:18.-- 30th anniversary It is called I Wage. The logistics

:24:19. > :24:22.are crazy. Some of the songs are only hearing the song for the first

:24:23. > :24:26.time. There are six different parts to piece together in a short space

:24:27. > :24:33.of time. And then one hour on the stage to sew it altogether. Maybe

:24:34. > :24:39.talk to me tomorrow! Today is a personal milestone for the head of

:24:40. > :24:44.the county music service, Philip Shaw, who started these causes 30

:24:45. > :24:51.years ago. Now, teachers bringing students here once performed

:24:52. > :24:58.themselves. Just to enjoy stepping out here in this incredibly

:24:59. > :25:09.inspiring place, you remember your De Gea at dandelion. -- De Gea at

:25:10. > :25:13.Snape Maltings. This venue given over to the children for one special

:25:14. > :25:22.day. Concerts every evening till

:25:23. > :25:32.Saturday. Tonight, it kicks off in around seven minutes time.

:25:33. > :25:55.A sunny start to the day. HIV-1, too. At the Norfolk- Suffolk border.

:25:56. > :26:00.The satellite picture shows why we had the best of the sunshine. That

:26:01. > :26:06.helped temperatures up to around nine Celsius. We could see

:26:07. > :26:10.temperatures tonight falling as low as two or three Celsius. And then,

:26:11. > :26:14.cloud thickening up and out rates of rain moving eastwards. Some of these

:26:15. > :26:19.on the heavy side. One of those nights where after the temperatures

:26:20. > :26:25.fall to around two Celsius, they should right again with mild air. Up

:26:26. > :26:30.to seven or eight Celsius. A mild end to the night. Tomorrowweather

:26:31. > :26:36.dependent on weather front. A nightmare to work out how quickly it

:26:37. > :26:39.will equip tomorrow. As it stands, a lot of cloud with further outbreaks

:26:40. > :26:42.of rain on and off throughout the day. But by this transaction also.

:26:43. > :26:49.Probably the best of that further north. With the cloud and the rain,

:26:50. > :26:56.temperatures could get up to around 12 Celsius. 13 or 14 in the

:26:57. > :27:08.sunshine. And like to wind. In the Sergeant, a thousand. -- very

:27:09. > :27:15.pleasant in the Sergeant. Some of us holding onto more cloud than others.

:27:16. > :27:20.On the whole, a dry day on Thursday. Friday is looking largely cloudy

:27:21. > :27:26.with some outbreaks of many light or patchy rain. If we are going to see

:27:27. > :27:39.by this and sunshine, later on. In the weekend, the rain should clear

:27:40. > :27:43.and decent sunny spells developing. Excellent, thanks. Goodbye.
