:00:00. > :00:08.In the programme tonight, another hospital goes

:00:09. > :00:11.Inspectors say some parts of Princess Alexandra

:00:12. > :00:20.I think we are in a low place at the moment as a trust.

:00:21. > :00:22.We have more patients that we have ever seen before.

:00:23. > :00:24.We have more buildings which are falling apart

:00:25. > :00:28.There has to be a fundamental and radical change in the way

:00:29. > :00:33.A jury hears a harrowing 999 recording of the moment the owner

:00:34. > :00:39.of a mansion in Essex was shot during a burglary.

:00:40. > :00:42.We join Olympic gymnast Louis Smith on a visit to a mosque

:00:43. > :00:47.after his controversial video which appeared to mock Islam.

:00:48. > :00:49.I'm on the Western Front in France where two British soldiers whose

:00:50. > :00:52.graves were wrongly marked at a local cemetery have finally

:00:53. > :01:11.First tonight, the Princess Alexandra Hospital in Harlow

:01:12. > :01:14.Inspectors say some parts aren't safe and improvements

:01:15. > :01:22.The Care Quality Commission was scathing in a number of areas.

:01:23. > :01:31.Among the few positives - caring staff and an outstanding

:01:32. > :01:34.In a moment the chief executive, but first

:01:35. > :01:44.Joanne's father is 96 and has Nikki Fox.

:01:45. > :01:49.Joanne's father is 96 and has dementia. He was admitted to the

:01:50. > :01:53.Princess Alexandra in February. She describes the lack of care her

:01:54. > :01:57.father received as frightening. When I say care, I mean things like

:01:58. > :02:04.attention to timing of antibiotics, making sure that there was a

:02:05. > :02:11.constant fluids in the can lard. We didn't get that with dad. He rapidly

:02:12. > :02:16.went downhill. This is a hospital that's now been branded unsafe in

:02:17. > :02:20.A critical and end of life care and this is why. Levels of nurse

:02:21. > :02:26.staffing in the resuscitation room were unsafe. Why? Staff shortages.

:02:27. > :02:32.Recruitment in Harlow is a big problem because staff get paid more

:02:33. > :02:38.in London. 14 ambulances queued to transfer patients and hospital staff

:02:39. > :02:42.failed to manage the situation. Why? Is casity. A fills up because

:02:43. > :02:47.frail patients in wards can't be moved on. One patient was in the

:02:48. > :02:53.hospital for a year despite being fit to leave. Lastly the mortuary

:02:54. > :02:57.was using a trailer-type unit to store an additional 20 bodies. This

:02:58. > :03:03.was parked outside in a loading bay. The reason? Capacity once again and

:03:04. > :03:07.ageing equipment. But there were positives. Staff were caring. The

:03:08. > :03:12.maternity unit was rated outstanding. Cancer targets were

:03:13. > :03:17.also met. And one MP thinks the hospital is being sold short. It is

:03:18. > :03:20.incredible given it is an aged building, given the issues that I've

:03:21. > :03:25.spoken about didn't and emergency being highest per head than almost

:03:26. > :03:31.anywhere in the country. Given the problems with recruitment, it is

:03:32. > :03:34.incredible that the vast majority of residents get an excellent service

:03:35. > :03:38.from the staff. No one is denying the Chief Executive has a challenge

:03:39. > :03:42.on his hands and he is already under scrutiny by the NHS about

:03:43. > :03:47.allegations surrounding expenses claims while in charge of another

:03:48. > :03:52.hospital in Hull. The NHS is in a terrible state at the moment. We

:03:53. > :03:56.need good mansioners and it is disappointing that we have ended up

:03:57. > :04:01.in the same situation that we had in Hull and it is not acceptable. Now

:04:02. > :04:04.in special measures the hospital will get more funding and the

:04:05. > :04:06.inspectors will be watching for improvements closely.

:04:07. > :04:09.This afternoon I spoke to Phil Morley, the Chief Executive

:04:10. > :04:12.of the Princess Alexandra, to get his reaction to the report.

:04:13. > :04:19.If you look at the outcomes and you look at the five things that are

:04:20. > :04:23.really important for patients, is my mortality safe? Will I survive being

:04:24. > :04:28.in hospital? Will I get an infection? Will anything that happen

:04:29. > :04:34.to me that shouldn't? Will I need to complain. On those five things we

:04:35. > :04:37.are among the top of the hospitals in England. You've gone from

:04:38. > :04:42.requires improvement to inadequate and that's a bad journey? It is a

:04:43. > :04:46.bad journey. We're in a low place at the moment as a trust. We have more

:04:47. > :04:50.patients than we have seen before. We have more buildings which are

:04:51. > :04:53.falling apart on us than we have had before. Part of the inadequate were

:04:54. > :04:58.the mortuary fridges which were deemed not fit for purpose. The

:04:59. > :05:04.beds, we're 60 beds... You had people outside the mortuary? Yes, we

:05:05. > :05:08.had temporary storage facilities outside the mortuary. They were

:05:09. > :05:11.adequate, but weren't in the real mortuary block. As far as management

:05:12. > :05:16.is concerned, there is criticism of management? Staff in the NHS feel at

:05:17. > :05:20.times that they can speak as much as they like, but there is nothing much

:05:21. > :05:23.that management can do. We are encouraging them to speak up. I've

:05:24. > :05:28.met 750 staff in the last ten days of they have come up with 500

:05:29. > :05:32.suggestions. Isn't that shutting the stable door after the horse has

:05:33. > :05:39.bolted? Shouldn't you have been doing thatary year ago? I do regular

:05:40. > :05:43.walk-abouts and I have conversation with staff. There was criticism that

:05:44. > :05:50.management didn't go into A? Sometimes when A is busy, the last

:05:51. > :05:57.thing is you need somebody going in to say how are you doing? How many

:05:58. > :06:02.times a week? I try to go a department twice a week and once a

:06:03. > :06:07.week I will have a speciality come and talk to me. The criticism is of

:06:08. > :06:10.the NHS and not of you? How much is done to me as Chief Executive? Yes.

:06:11. > :06:14.This is the organisation I run. Could I be a better Chief Executive?

:06:15. > :06:18.Could I work harder and could I listen more? You challenge yourself

:06:19. > :06:23.all the time about those things. There was severe criticism of your

:06:24. > :06:28.previous role at a previous hospital before you came here, criticism of

:06:29. > :06:33.you? Indeed. Do you think that that criticism was fair? I don't think

:06:34. > :06:37.that criticism was fair. I think when you look at the previous

:06:38. > :06:39.hospital I worked in, it was the worst hospital in England for

:06:40. > :06:43.mortality. It was missing its financial targets of the it had

:06:44. > :06:47.8,000 patients waiting on waiting list. I took that trust from being

:06:48. > :06:50.one of the worst in England to be a high performing hospital and when I

:06:51. > :06:53.left there, it was achieving its standards and achieving all its

:06:54. > :06:57.financial targets and the quality was high. So why did so many people

:06:58. > :07:00.think that you were responsible for a hospital which wasn't doing as

:07:01. > :07:05.well as it could have done? I think it is always easy to blame someone

:07:06. > :07:09.who is leaving. I think it is always easy to say it is the person at the

:07:10. > :07:12.top's fault. In your previous job, there were people who thought you

:07:13. > :07:16.were part of the problem? Indeed. And you're saying now you are not

:07:17. > :07:20.part of the problem? I have ealways done what I've done for patient

:07:21. > :07:24.care, for staff safety, for looking after the people that hospitals are

:07:25. > :07:26.here for. Yes, I've got a tremendous amount still to give for Harlow.

:07:27. > :07:30.Thank you. A pleasure. The moment a businessman called 999

:07:31. > :07:33.during a burglary at his mansion Timothy Mardon was shot in the leg

:07:34. > :07:37.during a break-in at Three men, all from Essex,

:07:38. > :07:41.deny aggravated burglary Gareth George is at Chelmsford

:07:42. > :07:56.Crown now. Well, Timothy Mardon gave evidence

:07:57. > :07:59.here today and he described the moment when barricaded behind his

:08:00. > :08:03.bedroom door he was shot by a burglar trying to get in. He said,

:08:04. > :08:12."Suddenly there was an explosion and I was thrown to the ground and the

:08:13. > :08:17.door burst open." ." Someone shouted, "Is the weed?" He said, "I

:08:18. > :08:22.don't deal weed. I work for an insurance company." He called 999

:08:23. > :08:27.and unknown to the burglars the incident was recorded. In the dock

:08:28. > :08:31.the three accused listened calmly to the evidence, Kalebh Shreeve,

:08:32. > :08:35.Charlie Simms and Christopher Bergin deny ago gra rating burglary and

:08:36. > :08:38.wounding with intent and possessing a firearm with intent to endanger

:08:39. > :08:43.life. Charlie Simms, who the prosecution say fired the bendon, a

:08:44. > :08:49.12 bore shotgun, denies a charge of attempted murder. Today, jurors at

:08:50. > :08:55.the court in Chelmsford listened to the 999 call insurance executive

:08:56. > :09:00.Timothy Mardon made at 4.30am, when intruders started yemying a window

:09:01. > :09:05.at his Grade II listed mansion called the Scald old Rectory in

:09:06. > :09:10.Sible Hedingham. Mr Mardon is heard telling the call handler I've locked

:09:11. > :09:13.myself in the bedroom upstairs. Later, when an intruder reaches his

:09:14. > :09:19.bedroom door, there is an audible bang. And then shouting, where is

:09:20. > :09:24.the money? Mr Mardon, who has been shot is heard saying, "I'm dying."

:09:25. > :09:29.After more shouting, the intruder leaves with Mr Mardon's wallet and a

:09:30. > :09:34.watch worth $3,000. The call handler asks, "What have they done to you?"

:09:35. > :09:39.Mr Mardon replies, "They have shot and tried to kill me. He is heard

:09:40. > :09:45.saying help. Help. As the call handler assures him the police and

:09:46. > :09:52.an blapl are on their way. Yesterday in court, during his opening speech,

:09:53. > :09:57.Mr Christie said the defendants targeted the mansion in the mistaken

:09:58. > :10:01.belief they would find drug money inside. It took the emergency

:10:02. > :10:08.services 40 minute to say get to Mr Mardon. He told the jury he feared

:10:09. > :10:12.he would bleed to death and he made a dressing out of the cord of his

:10:13. > :10:16.dressing gown. The case continues. Unemployment in the East has risen

:10:17. > :10:19.for the first time in four months. The total out of work stands

:10:20. > :10:22.at 123,000, a rise of 11,000 Two first world war soldiers

:10:23. > :10:31.from an Essex regiment have been Until now nobody knew the graves

:10:32. > :10:36.actually contained the remains For tonight's special report,

:10:37. > :10:41.Alex Dunlop travelled to Albert in France to be with the relatives

:10:42. > :10:45.of the dead men after their correct remains were discovered

:10:46. > :10:57.on the battlefield. The remains of Harry and William

:10:58. > :11:01.fittingly borne by royal Anglicans, soldiers with strong connections to

:11:02. > :11:06.the old Essex Regiment. Local people came to pay their respects. Leading

:11:07. > :11:10.the mourners, nine family members who never imagined they would be

:11:11. > :11:18.making the journey from south Essex to France. You just don't realise

:11:19. > :11:23.what that generation went through. And our generation, how easy we've

:11:24. > :11:28.had it in some ways. A lot of ways. And also we found letters from

:11:29. > :11:31.Harry, from the war that he wrote to his mum and dad, we were reading

:11:32. > :11:36.through them and it made it so poignant now. Both men according a

:11:37. > :11:41.burial with full military honours. What makes the story of these

:11:42. > :11:45.21-year-olds Harry and William so remarkable, is a water time clerical

:11:46. > :11:50.error. For a century it was thought they were buried this this cemetery,

:11:51. > :11:53.in fact, their bodies lay in a battlefield just two miles away.

:11:54. > :11:59.They were discovered by this historian.

:12:00. > :12:06.The are for three years Peter Barton and his team mapped the tunnels,

:12:07. > :12:11.used to undermine the enemy. In November 1915 Harry and William

:12:12. > :12:15.were on century duty when a massive German mine erupted below them. The

:12:16. > :12:19.fall-out killed them and six comrades. It is about eight or ten

:12:20. > :12:25.feet below that where we recovered the two British soldiers. Today

:12:26. > :12:30.Peter showed me the place they called the Glory Hole. The first

:12:31. > :12:35.instance, there is gosh, this is very serious, but that quickly

:12:36. > :12:38.changes to the point where you know you've found somebody who has been

:12:39. > :12:42.missing for 100 years and then you think can we identify this man?

:12:43. > :12:46.Thanks to advances in DNA testing the MoD were able to trace hard

:12:47. > :12:51.crisis and William's family. Two generations on. I didn't even know

:12:52. > :12:57.he existed. Were you moved? Were you shocked? I was shocked and shocked

:12:58. > :13:03.and then thinking well not moved at first, but then like, you start

:13:04. > :13:08.delving into it and you think how they suffered and how they died and

:13:09. > :13:15.you get a bit emotional. I've never known anything like this in 20 years

:13:16. > :13:20.of working for the can. Commission a case where so much evidence has been

:13:21. > :13:23.gathered and two individuals given back their identity and families

:13:24. > :13:27.with material that I have never seen before. It has been etion siting

:13:28. > :13:33.burg moving, and I feel like I know William and Harry now. The

:13:34. > :13:38.headstones commemorating the deaths of the soldiers stands in the town's

:13:39. > :13:45.cemetery, the bodies of the men, Charles Aldridge, a farler's son,

:13:46. > :13:50.and Harry, a moulder from Luton are still buried somewhere beneath the

:13:51. > :13:54.craters. It is too difficult, too dangerous to rekefr their remains.

:13:55. > :13:58.As Harry and William's families take a final tour of the place they died,

:13:59. > :14:01.it is sobering to think up to 40 bodies are recovered from the

:14:02. > :14:03.Western Front every year. A century on, two more at least have been laid

:14:04. > :14:20.to rest. Still to come, Alex will be here

:14:21. > :14:23.with the weather. After mocking Islam in a video, Louis Smith tries

:14:24. > :14:31.to make amends by visiting a mosque. New figures out this week show house

:14:32. > :14:34.prices in the East of England are rising faster than anywhere else

:14:35. > :14:36.in the country. More than 13% over the last year,

:14:37. > :14:39.an increase of ?32,000 Not so good if you're struggling

:14:40. > :14:45.to get on the ladder. We've asked Leigh Milner to do

:14:46. > :14:47.the number crunching, But first Katherine Nash has

:14:48. > :15:01.been talking to estate This is the three bedroomed

:15:02. > :15:06.semi-detached property. House hunting in feelics stow. Seb started

:15:07. > :15:12.looking a few years ago, but needed more time to save up for a deposit.

:15:13. > :15:18.Now, ready to buy, he is interested in this three bed semi on the market

:15:19. > :15:23.today at ?179,000. I have been looking more about three years. I

:15:24. > :15:27.looked at a property just around the corner for ?105,000 and then I

:15:28. > :15:32.started to save to get on the ladder. Stayed at home, stayed in on

:15:33. > :15:36.the odd weekend and I have now got enough money to buy a house, but

:15:37. > :15:40.house prices have gone up considerably so it is tougher than

:15:41. > :15:46.ever. Across England, average house prices have risen by 9%. However

:15:47. > :15:51.here in the east that figure stands at 13.3%. There is more opportunity

:15:52. > :15:54.for mortgages with people. There is a lot more buy-to-let investment

:15:55. > :16:01.going on certainly in the last few years. It is a better place to put

:16:02. > :16:06.your money than in the banks. Near Huntingdon this 17th century

:16:07. > :16:12.cottage is on the market for ?535,000, and the owners have had

:16:13. > :16:17.one offer. I feel the market is buoyant. With the growth at the

:16:18. > :16:21.moment and in the east of England I think it bucked all fear that is the

:16:22. > :16:26.EU referendum was going to have a lull in the summer market. We're

:16:27. > :16:30.seeing property rises up to 15%. But while the price hike is good for

:16:31. > :16:32.those selling property, for others, even getting on to the property

:16:33. > :16:41.ladder is a struggle. Sarah Roberts is a trainee chef on

:16:42. > :16:45.minimum wage. She is also a single mum and rents a two bedroom

:16:46. > :16:49.property. She is worried she will never own her own place.

:16:50. > :16:53.I don't think it is feasible with how wages are and how everything is

:16:54. > :16:57.increasing. It makes me a little sad. I want more for my son. I want

:16:58. > :17:01.something to hand down to him. As soon as I leave this house I have

:17:02. > :17:09.got nothing to show for my ?600 rent. In Felix stow, Seb likes the

:17:10. > :17:15.house and thinking of making an offer. Thinking of becoming a

:17:16. > :17:17.homeowner before he's priced out of the market.

:17:18. > :17:18.Katherine Nash with some examples from Suffolk,

:17:19. > :17:24.But what about the rest of the patch?

:17:25. > :17:26.It turns out the hotspots aren't necessarily where you'd expect.

:17:27. > :17:30.OK, well let's start with Cambridgeshire where house prices

:17:31. > :17:39.The average house price there is roughly ?278,000.

:17:40. > :17:44.Let's get an expert opinion on what that means if you live

:17:45. > :17:50.A lot of people can't afford to buy still on the market. The average

:17:51. > :17:57.house price in Cambridge is over ?450,000. You technically need a

:17:58. > :18:00.salary of about ?95,000 a year to be able to buy it.

:18:01. > :18:03.Now if you think that's expensive, figures show those who commute

:18:04. > :18:06.to London from other nearby counties such as Essex are feeling

:18:07. > :18:17.the squeeze even more so as prices there are soaring with an average

:18:18. > :18:23.Just to put that into perspective, it's ?58,000 than the average price

:18:24. > :18:27.Why, well it's because of places like Basildon where house prices

:18:28. > :18:30.Another popular county for commuters is Hertfordshire.

:18:31. > :18:33.When compared with other counties in the East.

:18:34. > :18:36.It has one of the highest increases for house prices of 16.1%.

:18:37. > :18:38.That means you can expect to pay almost

:18:39. > :18:43.If you think that's a little too out of your price range,

:18:44. > :18:46.not too far away in Luton, a house will set you back

:18:47. > :18:49.If you want even cheaper, the average price in Norfolk

:18:50. > :19:00.It's here and Suffolk where they've seen the lowest increase of around

:19:01. > :19:04.It's here where you'll also find the cheapest place to live

:19:05. > :19:14.Well, if you're a commuter travelling to London you can expect

:19:15. > :19:17.to start paying more on average for a house.

:19:18. > :19:20.In particular places such as Essex, Hertfordshire,

:19:21. > :19:25.Northamptonshire and Buckinghamshire.

:19:26. > :19:27.I've been told by various estate agents the reason behind this

:19:28. > :19:31.is because despite prices increasing It's still much cheaper overall

:19:32. > :19:33.to live just outside of London and commute in,

:19:34. > :19:40.Also for families, it remains a much preferred choice when it come

:19:41. > :19:43.Norfolk and Suffolk remain the cheapest places to live

:19:44. > :19:47.But the overall average cost of a house continues to rise,

:19:48. > :19:54.Football now and our teams from the Championship and League One

:19:55. > :19:58.Pick of the ties - the first match between Peterborough

:19:59. > :20:02.Elsewhere the pressure increased on the manager of MK Dons,

:20:03. > :20:04.Karl Robinson, but Ipswich got a much needed win

:20:05. > :20:07.James Burridge has the pick of the action, starting

:20:08. > :20:12.Some of this lot were still at school when Peterborough

:20:13. > :20:15.and Northampton last played in the League.

:20:16. > :20:18.Seven years which has seen both beset by various ups and downs.

:20:19. > :20:24.I still think, especially the older generation,

:20:25. > :20:26.they look at this one as the real big game.

:20:27. > :20:32.My dad brought me here when I was ten or 11

:20:33. > :20:35.and I was brought up with it since then really.

:20:36. > :20:36.I'm really excited. I love the atmosphere.

:20:37. > :20:44.So a lot of my friends are Northampton fans so I love it.

:20:45. > :20:47.The match lived up to the billing, even if for the Cobblers

:20:48. > :20:54.Marcus Maddison delivering the ball on a plate.

:20:55. > :20:56.He set-up Shaquile Coulthirst for the first, Ryan

:20:57. > :21:00.Despite sustained pressure from Northampton in the second half

:21:01. > :21:02.Tom Nicholls' volley put the game beyond doubt.

:21:03. > :21:05.Posh leapfrogging their opponents in the table.

:21:06. > :21:09.I think the boys stuck to the game plan really well.

:21:10. > :21:11.We knew it was going to be a physical battle.

:21:12. > :21:14.We knew we had to win our individual battles first and foremost

:21:15. > :21:21.It was good to score two set plays something we work on a lot.

:21:22. > :21:22.It's not acceptable that level of performance.

:21:23. > :21:25.We have conceded two set pieces and one cross in the box.

:21:26. > :21:28.Second half, I thought we had the better of the play,

:21:29. > :21:35.but if you don't take your chances, you don't win games of football.

:21:36. > :21:37.Well, if you're a fan of Ipswich Town you haven't

:21:38. > :21:43.Their first goal in 502 minutes courtesy of captain Luke Chambers.

:21:44. > :21:46.Freddie Sears made it 2-0 late on his first goal in 38 games.

:21:47. > :21:49.Town's first win in six matches with a clean sheet to boot.

:21:50. > :21:53.A welcome relief for manager Mick McCarthy.

:21:54. > :21:56.Consentration or a lack of cost Norwich at Fulham.

:21:57. > :21:59.Two penalties from Graham Dorrans gave them a comfortable advantage.

:22:00. > :22:04.Back came Fulham in a 15 minute spell.

:22:05. > :22:07.They scored twice, 2-2 it finished and the canaries slip to second

:22:08. > :22:15.MK Dons boss Karl Robinson is under real pressure.

:22:16. > :22:17.His side haven't won at home since March and last night

:22:18. > :22:20.he said his side may have to cheat more to win matches.

:22:21. > :22:23.He was left livid by refereeing decisions as his side conceded twice

:22:24. > :22:31.in the final three minutes to draw 3-3 with Bristol Rovers.

:22:32. > :22:33.The Peterborough gymnast, Louis Smith, missed the Olympic

:22:34. > :22:36.celebrations in London yesterday so that he could visit mosques

:22:37. > :22:39.Last week mobile phone footage emerged of him appearing

:22:40. > :22:42.He has since apologised, describing his actions

:22:43. > :22:53.This report is from Athar Ahmed from the BBC's Asian Network.

:22:54. > :22:56.He was the poster boy of the Olympics in 2012.

:22:57. > :23:07.And winner of one of the country's most watched shows.

:23:08. > :23:10.But now Louis Smith is facing a different challenge -

:23:11. > :23:12.getting his reputation back on track after accusations of

:23:13. > :23:22.It comes after a video was posted online showing the 27-year-old

:23:23. > :23:24.apparently mocking Islam which led to him receiving death threats.

:23:25. > :23:29.Now the gymnast is meeting Muslims around the country.

:23:30. > :23:32.This is the mosque itself. Shoes are fine up to here.

:23:33. > :23:38.Sitting down with them to explain why.

:23:39. > :23:40.What you say can resonate with some people on a personal level.

:23:41. > :23:44.And what I didn't want is people to see that video and think it's OK

:23:45. > :23:51.to do what I did or take it one step or further or two steps further.

:23:52. > :23:55.While his fellow Olympians celebrated their Rio success

:23:56. > :23:57.in parades being thrown for Team GB earlier this week, Smith

:23:58. > :23:59.decided not to take part because of the controversy

:24:00. > :24:04.I don't want to antagonise situations.

:24:05. > :24:07.I don't want people to feel like he has done that he's done

:24:08. > :24:09.and now he's out having a great time.

:24:10. > :24:14.He's out partying and socialising and stuff.

:24:15. > :24:17.REPORTER: That must be hard seeing the other athletes celebrating

:24:18. > :24:19.their victory and success and not being there?

:24:20. > :24:22.It is hard, but at the same time I'm in this position

:24:23. > :24:26.because of my own actions and my own behaviour.

:24:27. > :24:29.Young Muslims who have met the gymnast say they're pleased

:24:30. > :24:34.I remember watching Louis win his medal in 2012.

:24:35. > :24:36.So when this video came out it was disappointing.

:24:37. > :24:38.I thought should I have supported him or not?

:24:39. > :24:44.But today shows that it was the right thing to do.

:24:45. > :24:46.Thank you very much. Very kind of you to say.

:24:47. > :24:49.Smith now plans to take up invitations to visit other mosques

:24:50. > :24:52.around the country in the coming weeks and hopes to rebuild his

:24:53. > :25:01.career and reputation as one of Britain's finest Olympians.

:25:02. > :25:06.Time to get the weather now. Here is Alex. Thank you very much. Good

:25:07. > :25:12.evening we have had such a variety of weather conditions across the

:25:13. > :25:16.region today. Some big waves on the north for folk coast. Some fine

:25:17. > :25:20.weather in Bedford and sunshine across many of the western counties.

:25:21. > :25:24.Lots of showers across eastern counties. Again another one from

:25:25. > :25:29.Norfolk here showing a double rainbow and this has been caused by

:25:30. > :25:33.an area of low pressure that's close by. We have had a north-westerly

:25:34. > :25:37.wind and it continued to bring in showers across many eastern counties

:25:38. > :25:40.from the North Sea. If we run the satellite sequence you can see from

:25:41. > :25:44.this morning the main focus of the showers has been across parts of

:25:45. > :25:47.Norfolk, but they are getting down further towards Suffolk and into

:25:48. > :25:50.Essex as well. We could expect further showers particularly across

:25:51. > :25:54.the coast and across the eastern counties. Further west, there are

:25:55. > :25:58.one or two dotted around, but not so heavy. Through the evening and for

:25:59. > :26:01.the first part of the night, expect a further risk of those showers, but

:26:02. > :26:06.the general trend will be for those to fade away. By the end of the

:26:07. > :26:11.night they should be out of the way and it will be dry. Temperature wise

:26:12. > :26:15.there will be a lot of cloud around and breeze. So temperatures probably

:26:16. > :26:19.eight or nine Celsius at their lowest, but if you get any clear

:26:20. > :26:23.spells, they could go down a few degrees lower than that. It couldnd

:26:24. > :26:26.up being a chilly start to the day tomorrow. A similar set-up on the

:26:27. > :26:30.pressure pattern tomorrow. The low starts to move eastwards of the

:26:31. > :26:34.centre of that low further away from us. Although there will be showers

:26:35. > :26:38.coming in from the North Sea, they're not expected to be heavy.

:26:39. > :26:46.There could be a good scattering of them and hopefully sunshine in

:26:47. > :26:50.between. They are toe fo can yoused across eastern counties. Perhaps

:26:51. > :26:54.cloudy at times as we go through the afternoon and the win coming in from

:26:55. > :26:59.the north making it feel chilly. Temp tures 13 or 14 Celsius. A shift

:27:00. > :27:03.in pressure pattern as we get to the end of the week. So the area of low

:27:04. > :27:07.pressure continues to move eastwards and that starts to change our wind

:27:08. > :27:11.direction to an easterly. It will bring in colder air. You will notice

:27:12. > :27:14.the area of low pressure down to the west. That could produce some

:27:15. > :27:19.unsettled weather, but the weekend should be dry. So expect a largely

:27:20. > :27:22.dry day for Friday, but cloudy, perhaps an isolated shower and at

:27:23. > :27:25.the moment for us in the east, Saturday and Sunday are looking dry

:27:26. > :27:30.with sunshine. A little on the cool side with highs of 13 Celsius. And

:27:31. > :27:36.certainly those overnight temperatures dropping away as we get

:27:37. > :27:43.to the end of the weekend. We put the winter duvet on this

:27:44. > :27:45.morning. You still haven't put your heating on, have you? No. Some

:27:46. > :27:54.things never change! Bye-bye. Everyone's living these

:27:55. > :27:56.amazing lives, You're like a...
