Hello and welcome to Friday's Look East. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
In the programme tonight: Search teams recover the bodies | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
of a Bedfordshire family killed in a helicopter crash in Wales. | :00:07. | :00:09. | |
More black and Asian police officers on the streets of Bedfordshire, | :00:10. | :00:12. | |
but has the force done enough to overcome its past problems? | :00:13. | :00:14. | |
Is the future still bright for electric cars? | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
And I'm live here on the banks of the River Thames in London, | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
ahead of Sunday's boat races, where Cambridge's men are hoping | :00:22. | :00:23. | |
to make it two wins out of two, and the women are hoping to get over | :00:24. | :00:27. | |
the disappointment of last year's near sinking. | :00:28. | :00:47. | |
First tonight, in the past hour, police have confirmed the bodies | :00:48. | :00:51. | |
of five people from this region killed in a helicopter crash two | :00:52. | :00:54. | |
days ago have finally been recovered by search teams. | :00:55. | :00:56. | |
Kevin and Ruth Burke from near Milton Keynes and three | :00:57. | :00:58. | |
other adult members of their family were flying to Dublin | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
when the aircraft ditched in the North Wales mountains | :01:02. | :01:03. | |
Our reporter has spent the day in the village of Hulcote | :01:04. | :01:07. | |
Our village today deeply saddened that five people from the same | :01:08. | :01:20. | |
family are all believed to have lost their lives. It is just sad. Someone | :01:21. | :01:26. | |
who lives locally has passed away. In such a tragic way. It is a tiny | :01:27. | :01:39. | |
village. I think it is quite sad. Kevin and Ruth Burke had lived in | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
the area for some time. We had just moved to the dream home they built. | :01:44. | :01:49. | |
Bernabe are served on the parish council with Kevin. Very outgoing. | :01:50. | :01:59. | |
Quite charming. He was a very successful businessman. He had a lot | :02:00. | :02:07. | |
of attributes. Desperately sad to hear about this very tragic | :02:08. | :02:13. | |
accident. Particularly of course for the children. Very sad. And of | :02:14. | :02:18. | |
course a terrible shock to people who live in this little community. | :02:19. | :02:24. | |
Kevin had a local building firm and his company were involved in | :02:25. | :02:28. | |
projects like the expansion of the MK stadium. The family set off from | :02:29. | :02:34. | |
Milton Keynes, flying to Ireland on Wednesday. They crashed in the | :02:35. | :02:37. | |
mountains in Wales. Rescue services are still trying to recover the | :02:38. | :02:44. | |
bodies, but the weather is happening the operation. Conditions in the | :02:45. | :02:49. | |
mountains are treacherous. The most experienced climbers are finding it | :02:50. | :02:56. | |
very difficult. Once the bodies have been recovered, investigators will | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
want to examine the scene. As an aviation expert told me. It could be | :03:02. | :03:06. | |
quite a tough technical investigation, depending how bad the | :03:07. | :03:12. | |
damages from impact. There is unlikely to be a record on this | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
aircraft. You depend on other forms of evidence, so that will be a | :03:18. | :03:20. | |
painstaking examination of forensics at the scene. | :03:21. | :03:28. | |
We have now heard that all five bodies have been recovered. They | :03:29. | :03:38. | |
have been confirmed as Kevin and Ruth Burke, as well as three other | :03:39. | :03:45. | |
family members. It will be some time before we discover what went wrong | :03:46. | :03:47. | |
and caused them to lose their lives. Next, there will be more black | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
and ethnic minority police officers on the streets | :03:53. | :03:54. | |
of Bedfordshire from today. The force has been actively trying | :03:55. | :03:56. | |
to increase diversity in its ranks - and new recruits from that programme | :03:57. | :03:59. | |
passed out this afternoon. But it comes on the same day | :04:00. | :04:02. | |
as the Independent Police Complaints Commission revealed 15 staff | :04:03. | :04:05. | |
are under investigation for gross misconduct for their roles in a case | :04:06. | :04:07. | |
of internal racial discrimination. The new faces of | :04:08. | :04:20. | |
Bedfordshire Police. After months of training | :04:21. | :04:21. | |
and testing, these new recruits They're the first to pass out | :04:22. | :04:23. | |
since the campaign was started last year to encourage more people | :04:24. | :04:29. | |
from minority ethnic We will be able to deliver, | :04:30. | :04:31. | |
to cater for the needs of some of the different communities, | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
some of the challenges they face. We will be able to have a dialogue | :04:36. | :04:45. | |
with people who we have We will have a huge positive impact | :04:46. | :04:48. | |
for the whole community. As we are jogging round, | :04:49. | :04:53. | |
I want you to imagine you have a football at your feet, | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
flick your toes out. These were some of the recruits five | :04:58. | :04:59. | |
months ago undergoing fitness tests. It was always going to be more | :05:00. | :05:02. | |
of a marathon than a sprint. At the moment, just 6% of police | :05:03. | :05:06. | |
officers in Bedfordshire are from minority | :05:07. | :05:08. | |
ethnic backgrounds. Personally, I am doing this so that | :05:09. | :05:09. | |
other female Asians can see that you can do it, | :05:10. | :05:12. | |
you don't have to be secured, see that you can do it, | :05:13. | :05:15. | |
you don't have to be scared, you don't have to do worry | :05:16. | :05:17. | |
about religion or anything. You can be out there | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
positively and you can help It is hoped this injection | :05:21. | :05:22. | |
of new blood will help the force to improve trust | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
and public perception. Seeing people from your culture, | :05:28. | :05:29. | |
it breaks down barriers So it's not just the police | :05:30. | :05:31. | |
and them, it's ours. So it's not just the police | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
and them, it's us. But on this day of positivity, | :05:36. | :05:37. | |
the force's past conduct The IPCC is now investigating 15 | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
staff members, many of them senior officers, over claims of racial | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
discrimination against 96 new recruits will join | :05:46. | :05:47. | |
the force this year, It seems there are still a long way | :05:48. | :05:50. | |
to go, but the change starts today. So what more can | :05:51. | :06:05. | |
Bedfordshire Police do? I asked Chief Constable Jon Boutcher | :06:06. | :06:06. | |
why his force is still not as ethnically diverse | :06:07. | :06:09. | |
as the community it serves. Well, that's true about policing | :06:10. | :06:13. | |
across the country, Claire. We in the police service recognise | :06:14. | :06:15. | |
going back many many years the Scarman report of 1981, | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
MacPherson report into the tragic Both of those said that we needed | :06:19. | :06:20. | |
in the police service to recruit proportionately numbers | :06:21. | :06:30. | |
in the police service that represented our communities, | :06:31. | :06:32. | |
and we've not done that. So in Bedfordshire we've got a real | :06:33. | :06:34. | |
drive now to make sure that this force and the legacy of this force | :06:35. | :06:37. | |
represents the people We've just heard today | :06:38. | :06:40. | |
that the police watchdog is investigating 15 former | :06:41. | :06:46. | |
and current Bedfordshire officers I mean, that smacks of institutional | :06:47. | :06:47. | |
racism, doesn't it? Well, we need to be | :06:48. | :07:04. | |
very careful here. There was an employment tribunal | :07:05. | :07:06. | |
that occurred in 2014 and it looked at the force going back many many | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
years before then. And what we can do is prejudge | :07:10. | :07:11. | |
that investigation. The investigation needs | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
to take its course. It might find that there's not been | :07:16. | :07:20. | |
any inappropriate behaviours. So we have to be very careful | :07:21. | :07:22. | |
about commenting on that. So, for the recruits passing out | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
today though that are from black and ethnic minorities, | :07:26. | :07:28. | |
can you guarantee they will get the same opportunities | :07:29. | :07:30. | |
to regress to the force Our communities have | :07:31. | :07:32. | |
really backed this. People have come forward, | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
they've listened to what we have got to see and they realise just | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
what a wonderful career And it's important that our | :07:41. | :07:43. | |
police service represents How can we deal with some | :07:44. | :07:46. | |
of the issues in some of our diverse communities if we haven't got | :07:47. | :07:52. | |
officers from those communities? We have now increased our | :07:53. | :07:54. | |
numbers in Bedfordshire. We're going to change | :07:55. | :07:56. | |
the face of this force. What we've got to do now | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
is progress those officers And of course I'm hoping in years | :08:01. | :08:03. | |
to come you will be speaking to an Asian or black Chief Constable | :08:04. | :08:10. | |
representing a police force in this country, | :08:11. | :08:12. | |
which, at the moment, we haven't got in | :08:13. | :08:14. | |
the police service. Electric car drivers in the region | :08:15. | :08:16. | |
will no longer be able to charge their vehicles | :08:17. | :08:28. | |
for free tomorrow. It is because the company behind | :08:29. | :08:30. | |
a government-backed network of charging points in the East | :08:31. | :08:32. | |
of England - called Source East - can no longer afford | :08:33. | :08:35. | |
to subsidise running costs. For those of us who've gone | :08:36. | :08:37. | |
electric, charging up the vehicle is an essential part | :08:38. | :08:40. | |
of making the switch. But from tomorrow, drivers will no | :08:41. | :08:45. | |
longer be able to access a network of charging points | :08:46. | :08:48. | |
across the region without paying. Called Source East, it was partly | :08:49. | :08:54. | |
funded by a national The scheme has around 360 of these | :08:55. | :08:56. | |
charge points at 100 locations Which will now no | :08:57. | :09:00. | |
longer be free to use. It's because the company | :09:01. | :09:05. | |
behind the network based here at Hertfordshire University can | :09:06. | :09:08. | |
no longer afford to subsidise it. The hosts of the scheme, | :09:09. | :09:18. | |
those who have the charge points underground in local authority car | :09:19. | :09:21. | |
parks and suchlike have to provide the cost | :09:22. | :09:23. | |
of the maintenance at the moment. And their budgets don't | :09:24. | :09:25. | |
really allow that. So more and more of them have found | :09:26. | :09:29. | |
it very difficult to support, and more of the costs have come back | :09:30. | :09:32. | |
to us as a company. So what will happen | :09:33. | :09:35. | |
to the charging points? Here in Luton today, | :09:36. | :09:37. | |
they were being upgraded. But it means users will have | :09:38. | :09:39. | |
to pay a subscription, We are effectively picking up | :09:40. | :09:43. | |
the Source East posts and renewing them where required, | :09:44. | :09:51. | |
upgrading them to the latest specification, hopefully providing | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
a much better service Source East is one of | :09:56. | :09:57. | |
the last of these national It sanctioned the capital | :09:58. | :10:03. | |
to set up the project, but it is the maintenance fees | :10:04. | :10:06. | |
which are the problem. We are seeing current providers | :10:07. | :10:09. | |
change and new ones come in. That causes problems for people | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
like me who drive electric cars because I've got eight different | :10:15. | :10:17. | |
cards to access different We've got to have a much more joined | :10:18. | :10:19. | |
up approach to charging if we want to get people | :10:20. | :10:28. | |
into electric cars. Some companies at shopping centres | :10:29. | :10:30. | |
will of course still offer charging at no cost as an incentive, | :10:31. | :10:33. | |
but from tomorrow, it is goodbye to a network of free | :10:34. | :10:36. | |
electricity across our region. The Northamptonshire baker, | :10:37. | :10:46. | |
Oliver Adams, founded more than 150 years ago, | :10:47. | :10:47. | |
has today ceased trading after The company began in | :10:48. | :10:50. | |
Northampton in 1856. All 110 employees were told | :10:51. | :10:52. | |
at a meeting this morning That's all from me - | :10:53. | :10:55. | |
Tom Williams has your late news at ten thirty - | :10:56. | :11:03. | |
but time now for the rest Stay with us for Julie's | :11:04. | :11:05. | |
weekend weather forecast. We'll be live beside | :11:06. | :11:16. | |
the River Thames to speak to Cambridge ahead | :11:17. | :11:18. | |
of the University Boat Race. And, we go behind the scenes at one | :11:19. | :11:21. | |
of Britain's most advanced cinemas. The world of politics this | :11:22. | :11:30. | |
week has been dominated On Wednesday we heard from MPs | :11:31. | :11:32. | |
on both sides on the day Yesterday, we spoke | :11:33. | :11:38. | |
to the international trade secretary who told us securing a good deal | :11:39. | :11:42. | |
for our farmers was a priority. But how is this all going | :11:43. | :11:47. | |
down over in Brussels Some of our Euro MPs | :11:48. | :11:50. | |
will be on the front line Our political correspondent | :11:51. | :11:53. | |
Andrew Sinclair has been to Brussels In some respects life here is | :11:54. | :12:12. | |
continuing as normal, MEPs continue to discuss a range of different | :12:13. | :12:16. | |
topics while hundreds of tourists like this group from the Eastern | :12:17. | :12:21. | |
region drop in everyday to watch Parliament in action. I hope they | :12:22. | :12:25. | |
make the best of it and we can sort out trade agreements with different | :12:26. | :12:30. | |
countries and still have a good relationship with Europe. I think it | :12:31. | :12:33. | |
is incumbent on those in government to ensure we get the best possible | :12:34. | :12:38. | |
deal. It will take a long time before we are | :12:39. | :12:50. | |
business and that's borne out by the experiences of our own MEPs. They | :12:51. | :12:54. | |
have been holding meetings across the region and listening to people's | :12:55. | :13:00. | |
concerns. There is a gathering of EU nationals last month. A huge amount | :13:01. | :13:04. | |
of devil in the detail and I am giving them as much as I can of the | :13:05. | :13:08. | |
concerns put to me back to the powers that be at Westminster and | :13:09. | :13:13. | |
Brussels. Every different company and sector I talk to tells me about | :13:14. | :13:17. | |
yet another Brexit problem perhaps one I have not thought about or | :13:18. | :13:22. | |
heard about before and I think it's going to be deeply, deeply difficult | :13:23. | :13:27. | |
period. But not everyone here agrees, this man a key member of the | :13:28. | :13:33. | |
Leave campaign. I am confident we will get a great deal, we are | :13:34. | :13:37. | |
hearing some pragmatic voices at last. A lot of people are saying it | :13:38. | :13:43. | |
will be difficult and you don't realise how difficult? We are not | :13:44. | :13:47. | |
reinventing the wheel, we are following the guidelines set by the | :13:48. | :13:51. | |
World Trade Organisation and I think we can keep it pretty straight | :13:52. | :13:56. | |
forward. Who is right we just don't know. But whatever side of the | :13:57. | :13:59. | |
debate they are all in all of our MEPs are doing their bit to try and | :14:00. | :14:03. | |
get the region a good deal out of Brexit. | :14:04. | :14:08. | |
Andrew is here, how influential will our MEPs be? In one respect not much | :14:09. | :14:15. | |
because the negotiations are being run by the European Commission which | :14:16. | :14:19. | |
is down the road on the parliament but European politics is about | :14:20. | :14:22. | |
behind the scenes lobbying and MEPs at brussels talk to their national | :14:23. | :14:26. | |
governments who in turn feed into the European negotiations so the | :14:27. | :14:31. | |
likes of the men and women you saw in that package are all talking to | :14:32. | :14:35. | |
their opposite numbers to try to find out areas we have in common | :14:36. | :14:41. | |
over the things which matter to us, agriculture, science, technology, in | :14:42. | :14:44. | |
the hope it will go up the line to the national governments that these | :14:45. | :14:49. | |
other things we need a good deal on. On top of that our MEPs are also | :14:50. | :14:53. | |
talking to people here in the region and feeding into the brush it should | :14:54. | :14:59. | |
-- British negotiators things which are imported in this region. And | :15:00. | :15:06. | |
Parliament has broken up Easter. Yes, what happens now a lot of | :15:07. | :15:09. | |
attention turns to local elections and we will be talking about them on | :15:10. | :15:13. | |
Sunday politics this week. Thank you Andrew. | :15:14. | :15:16. | |
It's one of the oldest sporting events in the world. | :15:17. | :15:18. | |
The University Boat Race gets underway on Sunday with the women's | :15:19. | :15:21. | |
race at just after half past four and the men's event an hour later. | :15:22. | :15:24. | |
Cambridge go into the race with 82 wins. | :15:25. | :15:26. | |
As always the race will be watched by an audience | :15:27. | :15:31. | |
Let's go to the River Thames now to Putney and James Burridge. | :15:32. | :15:43. | |
Yes, well, to south-west London, pretty close, look how close we are | :15:44. | :15:51. | |
tonight, in about 48 hours' time the famous scene you see the individual | :15:52. | :15:55. | |
rowers taking their orders down to the water 's edge, they get into the | :15:56. | :15:58. | |
eights and will make their way to the startling just shy of Putney | :15:59. | :16:02. | |
Bridge and then there was nerve-racking moments where they | :16:03. | :16:07. | |
await the umpire to see go. We have spent some time behind the scenes | :16:08. | :16:10. | |
with the men and the women of Cambridge University and this is the | :16:11. | :16:18. | |
poetry story. Everyone is waking up at 5am. It's a big commitment | :16:19. | :16:23. | |
everyone is making to be part of this team. It's hard to put into | :16:24. | :16:29. | |
words how hard the boat race is. You always build confidence in what you | :16:30. | :16:33. | |
are doing so every year I have got to the race thinking I am confident | :16:34. | :16:43. | |
in the girls around me. A bit more positive on the press. It's not like | :16:44. | :16:51. | |
any other race, you have moving water underneath you, if you did a | :16:52. | :16:54. | |
normal start like you would at any normal race the blades would get | :16:55. | :16:58. | |
sucked down to the bottom of the river before the guys have even | :16:59. | :17:04. | |
stood up to see get ready. Six months preparation for just 17 | :17:05. | :17:10. | |
minutes on the water, four miles, 374 yards of excruciating pain | :17:11. | :17:14. | |
battling a boat and the conditions. Last year for the Cambridge women | :17:15. | :17:20. | |
the conditions almost beat them. Red flag is being waved and in the | :17:21. | :17:25. | |
shadow of the bridge Cambridge are sinking. Every crew has a chat were | :17:26. | :17:30. | |
you sit down and say what would we do if and we had our conversation | :17:31. | :17:37. | |
and nobody thought we were going to almost sank. You could have as many | :17:38. | :17:40. | |
conversations as you like and something can still come and E and | :17:41. | :17:46. | |
additional challenge. Spare a thought for the person who has to | :17:47. | :17:51. | |
steer, both crews looking for the quickest line and the fastest water. | :17:52. | :17:56. | |
Do you get nervous? I do before the race but on the start line I will be | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
nervous but once we go it all clicks into routine. You can feel the focus | :18:02. | :18:08. | |
of everyone in the crew prepared and ready to start. Can you describe the | :18:09. | :18:13. | |
physical exertions? A lot of time after the race I do not remember a | :18:14. | :18:21. | |
lot of went on. You find a deep dark place inside yourself during every | :18:22. | :18:25. | |
race. That's a place at you don't want to talk about. Come Sunday | :18:26. | :18:32. | |
tea-time over 200,000 will be crammed on the banks of the Thames | :18:33. | :18:36. | |
to watch their moment on the water. Millions more on TV, the river whose | :18:37. | :18:41. | |
will feel along well with. Fairly calm in Putney, Cambridge are | :18:42. | :18:52. | |
the heavier bought by about three kilograms, Oxford are the | :18:53. | :18:58. | |
favourites. Ashton brown in the women's crew developed pneumonia and | :18:59. | :19:01. | |
was out of action for six months after last year is almost sinking so | :19:02. | :19:05. | |
she has got revenge on her mind ahead of the race. | :19:06. | :19:08. | |
Thank you James. For Ipswich Town tomorrow | :19:09. | :19:10. | |
is what they are calling And this week girls from a number | :19:11. | :19:13. | |
of local primary schools have been taking part in training sessions | :19:14. | :19:17. | |
with some of the players. About a quarter of all footballers | :19:18. | :19:19. | |
in this country are female but the FA's trying | :19:20. | :19:22. | |
to boost participation further. More than 10,000 have already signed | :19:23. | :19:25. | |
up for their national An increasingly familiar sight, | :19:26. | :19:41. | |
girls enjoying a Kickabout for fun and competitively to, ahead of | :19:42. | :19:44. | |
ladies day at Ipswich local schoolchildren have been putting | :19:45. | :19:47. | |
their heroes through their paces. It's nice to see the club trying to | :19:48. | :19:53. | |
boost participation. We have people willing to come down and help and | :19:54. | :19:56. | |
bid on sessions and the girls have enjoyed it and it's nice to see | :19:57. | :19:59. | |
people running around without as much pressure as we have on | :20:00. | :20:03. | |
Saturday. I was just saying we had a tough morning this morning and to | :20:04. | :20:09. | |
come down here was just as tough, the girls are very competitive and | :20:10. | :20:13. | |
have a real winning streak. I have had a few shouting at me! Football | :20:14. | :20:20. | |
clearly now no longer a man's game. Me and my brother like to play | :20:21. | :20:23. | |
against each other but he is always like I will go easy but I just want | :20:24. | :20:27. | |
to say you don't have to because I am really good. I think girls is | :20:28. | :20:33. | |
better but boys show off too much. Some people think boys can play | :20:34. | :20:37. | |
football and girls can't but we are going to prove them wrong. Almost 12 | :20:38. | :20:43. | |
million people play football in this country. Just under 9 million are | :20:44. | :20:50. | |
male. Almost 3 million, around a quarter, Artie Miele and the women's | :20:51. | :20:55. | |
game is growing fast. Next month Savic FAO launches its new wildcat | :20:56. | :21:00. | |
clubs, and nationwide scheme encouraging 5-11 -year-olds to play. | :21:01. | :21:06. | |
200 in the country, four in Suffolk where football is taking off. The | :21:07. | :21:11. | |
challenge at times is the culture of players who do not realise it can be | :21:12. | :21:16. | |
their sport. But with how well the lioness is done in the World Cup it | :21:17. | :21:21. | |
shows there is an opportunity for girls. One well-known lioness | :21:22. | :21:25. | |
visited Milton Keynes today to share tips with the rising star is. | :21:26. | :21:30. | |
England's women are back in action at Stadium MK a week on Monday. We | :21:31. | :21:36. | |
have a responsibility because we are role models. Back in Ipswich the | :21:37. | :21:43. | |
girls have done their bit, no time for the men to impress on ladies day | :21:44. | :21:50. | |
with victory over Birmingham. I love the Sass. | :21:51. | :21:55. | |
If they can play football half as well as they talk about it they will | :21:56. | :21:57. | |
be world beaters. And a tray packed full of ice cream | :21:58. | :22:00. | |
tubs during the intermission. But these days cinemas | :22:01. | :22:07. | |
are very high tech. And in Ipswich today | :22:08. | :22:09. | |
a landmark moment. A new 14 screen complex | :22:10. | :22:10. | |
where the films are It's the first of its | :22:11. | :22:12. | |
kind in the region. Exciting staff, extra large scissors | :22:13. | :22:25. | |
and exposure galore as the Empire opens its doors. Giving Ipswich a | :22:26. | :22:33. | |
total of 27 screens. Too much? Not by a long way, when you consider | :22:34. | :22:40. | |
over 650 films are released per year plus all the arts products and we | :22:41. | :22:44. | |
struggle to play everything we would like to. You can see why the | :22:45. | :22:48. | |
question is being asked, still derelict is the old Odeon which shut | :22:49. | :22:52. | |
12 years ago after being told it could not compete. Back in 1961 and | :22:53. | :23:01. | |
the cinema was the only place to be, top titles, tasty treats and in | :23:02. | :23:05. | |
Ipswich look through old snapshots and the pictures have always been | :23:06. | :23:10. | |
paramount, no pun intended. Remember the good old days when the film was | :23:11. | :23:15. | |
about the crackle of cellulite, the projectionist doing his business? | :23:16. | :23:22. | |
Not any more. Today it is lasers. David was once a projectionist and | :23:23. | :23:26. | |
is now in charge of this control room and computers which pretty much | :23:27. | :23:33. | |
run all 14 laser screens are needed. For you there is no time or a sense | :23:34. | :23:38. | |
of getting tearful, it is progress. Absolutely. I do miss film, I think | :23:39. | :23:45. | |
every projectionist out there Mrs film but you have to move with the | :23:46. | :23:51. | |
times. The Empire has taken two years to create, converting what was | :23:52. | :23:55. | |
a huge retail chunk of the butter market and removing masses of | :23:56. | :23:59. | |
concrete. There was a level of concrete right the way through in | :24:00. | :24:04. | |
particular here. The work the builders have done here is amazing. | :24:05. | :24:09. | |
I was here last June and it was just a shell and to see it look like this | :24:10. | :24:13. | |
now is incredible. It's really exciting. Laser projection for the | :24:14. | :24:19. | |
first time three years ago, the first time I have seen technology | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
that is a game changer, sometimes it is presented and you think OK I | :24:24. | :24:27. | |
cannot see the customer benefit but this one has a real customer | :24:28. | :24:31. | |
benefit. The picture quality, the colours and sharpness and brightness | :24:32. | :24:36. | |
is like nothing you have seen before. There is a drive underway to | :24:37. | :24:42. | |
rejuvenate this corner of time, the Empire team say they are delighted | :24:43. | :24:44. | |
and excited to be part of it. isn't it? Let's get the weather, my | :24:45. | :24:49. | |
other last night. Most of staying in double figures | :24:50. | :25:05. | |
last did not quite the direct third, that was 1990 when it was down | :25:06. | :25:11. | |
around 13 Celsius. But lots of us last night were very close. Today | :25:12. | :25:16. | |
there has been a lot of cloud certainly compared to yesterday and | :25:17. | :25:20. | |
some of this has produced rain and showers but there has been blue sky. | :25:21. | :25:26. | |
With the sunshine and a keen west wind perfect conditions for drying. | :25:27. | :25:30. | |
You can see on the radar and satellite picture a little bits and | :25:31. | :25:34. | |
pieces of showers which cleared quickly and this afternoon has been | :25:35. | :25:39. | |
largely fine and dry with spells of sunshine. Tonight perhaps an odd | :25:40. | :25:43. | |
isolated shower but for most of us dry with long clear spells and | :25:44. | :25:47. | |
another mild night but not as mild as last night. Seven or eight | :25:48. | :25:51. | |
Celsius above average for the time of year and mainly light winds. | :25:52. | :26:01. | |
Tomorrow this little feature brings us that good old double act of | :26:02. | :26:04. | |
sunshine and showers. Might be a dry start for many but eventually the | :26:05. | :26:07. | |
showers moving through if you see one there could be hell and thunder | :26:08. | :26:11. | |
and they will be slow-moving as we will have mainly light side, | :26:12. | :26:16. | |
south-westerly winds. In the best of the sunshine temperatures up around | :26:17. | :26:22. | |
15. It will feel lovely because of the light winds. I do think even | :26:23. | :26:25. | |
through the afternoon and into the evening there will be a lot of fine | :26:26. | :26:30. | |
and dry weather, showers not for everyone. That is Saturday and then | :26:31. | :26:35. | |
on Sunday high pressure, this ridge of high pressure building, I think | :26:36. | :26:39. | |
for most of us it will be a fine and dry day with a good deal of | :26:40. | :26:44. | |
sunshine. Just a very small chance of an isolated shower but it's | :26:45. | :26:47. | |
looking pretty good for the boat race in London on Sunday evening. | :26:48. | :26:52. | |
Fine and dry with light winds. That's the weekend, not too bad but | :26:53. | :26:56. | |
there will be heavy and possibly thundery showers on Saturday. Monday | :26:57. | :27:01. | |
high-pressure continues to build so it's looking driver everyone we | :27:02. | :27:04. | |
could have missed and for first-time, Tuesday a week for the | :27:05. | :27:06. | |
front. Thank you. The producer made a noise | :27:07. | :27:18. | |
as the Sunday weather picture came up. He is happy. Have a good | :27:19. | :27:20. | |
weekend. | :27:21. | :27:22. |
