:00:00. > :00:10.In the programme tonight, a Brexit bounce for our boatbuilders.

:00:11. > :00:13.Companies which export say they're benefiting from a substantially

:00:14. > :00:26.About 15-20%, so on about the size behind me, that is nearly $500,000.

:00:27. > :00:28.What went wrong at Southwold Harbour?

:00:29. > :00:30.The local council is accused of "bungling incompetence".

:00:31. > :00:35.A great FA Cup goal last night means a great FA Cup tie next month.

:00:36. > :00:47.Why the match between Peterborough and Chelsea could be worth ?500,000.

:00:48. > :01:05.First tonight, a Brexit boom for our boatbuilders

:01:06. > :01:08.because the exchange rate means their boats are now much

:01:09. > :01:13.Most of the luxury yachts built in this country

:01:14. > :01:17.go to overseas buyers, predominantly in America and Europe.

:01:18. > :01:20.The value of the pound against the dollar and the Euro

:01:21. > :01:23.means British boats are now cheaper to foreign buyers.

:01:24. > :01:28.British companies are having to pay more for parts and raw materials.

:01:29. > :01:34.This from our Business Correspondent Richard Bond.

:01:35. > :01:37.Building luxury yachts for millionaires.

:01:38. > :01:40.It is big business in this region, and since the referendum,

:01:41. > :01:46.The drop in the value of the pound has made British yachts

:01:47. > :01:52.This is a boat for an American client, it is about ?2 million.

:01:53. > :01:56.At this yard in Norfolk, they have felt the benefit.

:01:57. > :02:00.We have a great last four months, we have sold six boats,

:02:01. > :02:04.all to foreign buyers, half to America, and half

:02:05. > :02:08.They are taking advantage of the exchange rate,

:02:09. > :02:12.it is very clear our boats have become cheaper for foreign buyers.

:02:13. > :02:21.About 15-20%, so on a boat the size behind me, that's nearly $500,000.

:02:22. > :02:24.The yachts made by the yard cost up to ?2.5 million.

:02:25. > :02:32.The post-referendum bones has helped other boat builders as well.

:02:33. > :02:35.Spirit Yachts of Ipswich makes powerboats and sailing yachts

:02:36. > :02:41.Today it opened a new factory, doubling the size of its premises

:02:42. > :02:45.We have found we have got more enquiries from overseas,

:02:46. > :02:47.and that is because of the pound change.

:02:48. > :02:50.We have also found stocks and shares have gone up,

:02:51. > :02:52.and UK buyers are saying, my share value has gone up,

:02:53. > :02:56.I might take it out of shares and I might buy that boat

:02:57. > :03:01.So, our sales have been split evenly from abroad and the UK.

:03:02. > :03:03.There is a disadvantage of a weak pound for manufacturers.

:03:04. > :03:08.It makes that imported raw materials such as wood more expensive.

:03:09. > :03:11.But the upturn of orders has revived an industry which has been

:03:12. > :03:16.Just a year ago, Fairline Boats of Northamptonshire and Ipswich went

:03:17. > :03:24.New owners took over in January, and now it is seeing a recovery.

:03:25. > :03:28.But the terms of Britain's exit from the EU will be important.

:03:29. > :03:32.A cheap pound may have given a short-term boost to this industry,

:03:33. > :03:34.but companies like Spirit know that the outcome of international

:03:35. > :03:39.trade deals yet to be conducted will decide whether the industry

:03:40. > :03:49.The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh have delayed their annual trip

:03:50. > :03:53.They were expected to travel by train to King's Lynn, and then

:03:54. > :03:57.Our chief reporter Kim Riley is here.

:03:58. > :04:07.Yes, Buckingham Palace issued a very short statement in answer to concern

:04:08. > :04:10.over these health issues. A spokesman said the Queen and Prince

:04:11. > :04:14.Philip at heavy colds. For that reason they decided not to travel as

:04:15. > :04:17.they would normally do for their Christmas break. They were due to

:04:18. > :04:22.repeat last year's travel arrangements when the Queen and Duke

:04:23. > :04:26.took the train from King's Cross to King 's Lynn. Arriving with their

:04:27. > :04:30.security team for being driven to Sandringham house. Just yesterday,

:04:31. > :04:35.it was announced the Queen was stepping down as patron of 25

:04:36. > :04:39.different organisations. Buckingham Palace stresses she is still a

:04:40. > :04:47.patron of 600 others. Any news of when they will come?

:04:48. > :04:51.The Palace took the unusual step of announcing the Queen's visit to a

:04:52. > :04:56.hospital for a routine checkup. We now have yesterday the Queen and

:04:57. > :04:59.Duke as usual hosted the annual Christmas lunch for all sorts of

:05:00. > :05:02.relatives at Buckingham Palace. They are likely to make the journey

:05:03. > :05:06.pretty soon, we know that Christmas at Sandringham is very special for

:05:07. > :05:08.both of them. Thank you.

:05:09. > :05:10.Harbour users in Southwold have accused Waveney Council of "bungling

:05:11. > :05:13."incompetence" over a multi-million pound project to rebuild a quayside.

:05:14. > :05:15.Bollards to tie up boats were never installed,

:05:16. > :05:17.making the quay unusable for larger vessels.

:05:18. > :05:22.The council has admitted mistakes were made.

:05:23. > :05:25.Spring 2010, Southwold's historic harbour wall,

:05:26. > :05:32.Later that year, a ?4 million project to rebuild it and make other

:05:33. > :05:36.improvements was announced - to the delight of locals.

:05:37. > :05:40.Bunkering for diesel, new crane, new electrics,

:05:41. > :05:45.And hopefully we will keep the bollards, which are the only

:05:46. > :05:50.Trouble is, despite giving many years of sterling service,

:05:51. > :05:53.those bollards were not reinstalled on top of the harbour wall.

:05:54. > :05:57.New ones were specified at a cost of ?64,000.

:05:58. > :06:02.But, for whatever reason, they were never installed.

:06:03. > :06:07.Instead, mooring rings were installed, which are not strong

:06:08. > :06:14.And the tragedy is the fact that we can't earn a living

:06:15. > :06:17.from the well, so there is no money coming in.

:06:18. > :06:20.So, you've got boats queueing up to use this quayside that

:06:21. > :06:25.We've got spaces here to take but that want to use it,

:06:26. > :06:27.but we can't use them, because of this problem

:06:28. > :06:32.Waveney Council admits it has signed off the project.

:06:33. > :06:36.It will now have to pay to sort it out.

:06:37. > :06:38.It's been described as bungling incompetence.

:06:39. > :06:44.I mean, obviously, there has been an oversight with regards

:06:45. > :06:46.to the fixing arrangements of the bollards.

:06:47. > :06:49.It could be, in actual fact, it was the wrong

:06:50. > :06:53.But to call it bungling incompetence I don't think is the case.

:06:54. > :06:56.The council says it will now install the bollards

:06:57. > :07:02.Some of the old ones are made in 1908, did not go to waste.

:07:03. > :07:11.A couple are now protecting a car park ticket machine instead.

:07:12. > :07:13.The major abortion clinic for Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex says

:07:14. > :07:16.it has made changes since a highly critical report

:07:17. > :07:21.Services at the Marie Stopes Centre in Norwich were stopped from August

:07:22. > :07:23.to October this year after an inspection by

:07:24. > :07:42.Here is the report, and hidden in it the key facts. Only 40% of staff

:07:43. > :07:47.have been given the proper training. Two doctors are required by law to

:07:48. > :07:50.approve termination. It gives women a chance to fully understand what is

:07:51. > :07:55.happening and discuss their options. But clinicians were bulk signing up

:07:56. > :07:58.to 60 consent forms at a time, without meeting patients are

:07:59. > :08:02.considering their circumstances. Moving on infection-control, it says

:08:03. > :08:08.multiple surgical termination products were left in a hazardous

:08:09. > :08:14.waste bin next to theatres for a whole day. As a result,

:08:15. > :08:20.infection-control results were poor. You may recall, back in August, all

:08:21. > :08:24.surgical abortions were suspended at this centre, after concerns were

:08:25. > :08:28.raised about patient safety. The organisation was allowed to resume

:08:29. > :08:30.in October following improvements. Today, a representative from Murray

:08:31. > :08:48.Stopes UK, said... But, Professor Edward Baker from the

:08:49. > :09:08.Care Quality Commission said... Campaigners trying to stop a waste

:09:09. > :09:13.incinerator being built in Essex are celebrating tonight

:09:14. > :09:15.after the plans suffered a set-back. The Environment Agency refused

:09:16. > :09:18.to grant a permit for the plant at Rivenhall near Braintree,

:09:19. > :09:20.saying its design Last month, Look East filmed Whittam

:09:21. > :09:26.MP and Cabinet Minister Priti Patel at a public meeting

:09:27. > :09:29.about the incinerator. The turnout reflected

:09:30. > :09:31.the depth of feeling, and the Secretary of State

:09:32. > :09:33.for International Development There are genuine concerns

:09:34. > :09:38.about the sustainability of this particular plant in a part of Essex

:09:39. > :09:44.where our roads are at capacity, where there are plans

:09:45. > :09:47.to have more housing, and quite frankly community

:09:48. > :09:49.engagement has been This morning, work went

:09:50. > :09:56.on to clear the site Already given planning permission

:09:57. > :10:01.by Essex County Council. But today it has emerged

:10:02. > :10:03.the Environment Agency has now refused to grant the company behind

:10:04. > :10:06.it the environmental permit it This is an artist's impression

:10:07. > :10:22.of what the plant could look like. The incinerator would burn over

:10:23. > :10:26.500,000 tonnes of rubbish per year. The Environment Agency's key concern

:10:27. > :10:29.is the stack, or chimney. In the plan it is 35

:10:30. > :10:32.metres from the ground, This morning to prominent

:10:33. > :10:36.campaigners visited the site and welcomed

:10:37. > :10:40.the Environment Agency's decision. We have had hundreds,

:10:41. > :10:42.literally hundreds, of congratulatory notes

:10:43. > :10:53.and support notes today. The Pain campaign,

:10:54. > :10:54.Parishes Against Incinerators is some 2000 strong,

:10:55. > :10:57.and every one of them is responding on social media today, and really,

:10:58. > :10:59.really pleased that this It has been a year coming,

:11:00. > :11:03.but we are absolutely It's a real important milestone

:11:04. > :11:08.in the battle against the site. The company building the plant

:11:09. > :11:11.could not be reached today. Essex County Council said it

:11:12. > :11:14.would expect them to work directly with the Environment Agency

:11:15. > :11:18.to address the concerns. Meanwhile, the campaigners

:11:19. > :11:24.are claiming victory. A funeral procession has been held

:11:25. > :11:27.in Ipswich for a fire fighter who was killed on a level crossing

:11:28. > :11:30.earlier this month. An old fashioned fire engine

:11:31. > :11:33.was part of the cortege for Tony Bickers, who was 53

:11:34. > :11:35.and lived in Worlingworth. Before he retired,

:11:36. > :11:38.he was stationed at Princes Street He died when he was hit by a train

:11:39. > :11:46.on a crossing near Eye. Suffolk Fire And Rescue Service

:11:47. > :11:49.is a family, and we have been able to support Tony's family

:11:50. > :11:51.through this very difficult time, and today is

:11:52. > :11:54.a celebration of his life. He was highly respected,

:11:55. > :12:16.highly regarded, Still do, the wonderful sound of the

:12:17. > :12:21.choir at King's College, Cambridge. And Posh seal a trip to Stamford

:12:22. > :12:22.Bridge for a cup tie against Chelsea, and their second goal last

:12:23. > :12:24.night was pretty special. Did you know there are nearly

:12:25. > :12:27.eight million people in this country Some of them have busy lives

:12:28. > :12:31.with lots of friends - And being lonely, say researchers,

:12:32. > :12:38.can also lead to health problems. The answer, of course,

:12:39. > :12:41.is companionship, but that can be difficult to find

:12:42. > :12:44.for some older people. Alan Eagle got in touch with us

:12:45. > :12:46.after retiring early He wanted to share his story of how

:12:47. > :13:05.he dealt with the sense Alan Eagle was diagnosed with MS

:13:06. > :13:09.when he was 40. In April, the 63-year-old's health deteriorated

:13:10. > :13:14.rapidly, from having a high-powered job interacting with lots of people,

:13:15. > :13:17.he had to retire. It's when the world closes in and it

:13:18. > :13:22.becomes a very narrow place, it's just your home, and maybe one or two

:13:23. > :13:29.people that you meet every day. And that is very disempowering. Quite

:13:30. > :13:34.quickly, my confidence ebbed away. Alan is particularly conscious his

:13:35. > :13:38.MS has affected his speech. Nevertheless, he set up this weekly

:13:39. > :13:45.craft group, teaching other retired people to make wallets and belts.

:13:46. > :13:48.It was amazing, the first week, just the fact that they wanted to come

:13:49. > :13:52.and do something that I was interested in, and I could share

:13:53. > :13:57.that interest. And it made me less self-conscious about my speech,

:13:58. > :14:03.working with a small group of people week in, to begin with, help me

:14:04. > :14:06.overcome that self-consciousness. And it has also helped others who

:14:07. > :14:13.will only come at like Graham, who lost his way. -- who were lonely.

:14:14. > :14:17.You have to fill the time when somebody passes away, and that is a

:14:18. > :14:23.hard job to do. You cannot sit around, you have to get off your

:14:24. > :14:28.butt and do something. The idea of using a different kind

:14:29. > :14:31.of material appeals. I have found so many other things I can do with it,

:14:32. > :14:36.it is really interesting. The workshop is owned by a local

:14:37. > :14:44.leather firm, which allows the group to use it for free. All are members

:14:45. > :14:47.of a national organisation for retired people, which allows them to

:14:48. > :14:52.access a range of activities in a friendly atmosphere.

:14:53. > :14:56.I think families, both husband-and-wife working, mother,

:14:57. > :15:00.father, grandparents, they do not see them as much as they used to, so

:15:01. > :15:04.they have to make a life for themselves.

:15:05. > :15:07.The advice from those here is to get involved with something you're

:15:08. > :15:11.passionate about, and to help others who may be alone.

:15:12. > :15:13.And to find out more about services to help combat

:15:14. > :15:17.you can go online to the Age UK website,

:15:18. > :15:25.or you can call the charity on 0800 678 1174.

:15:26. > :15:27.In football, Peterborough United will play Chelsea in the third

:15:28. > :15:33.Last night they beat Notts Country 2-0 in a second round replay.

:15:34. > :15:38.Now the match at Stamford Bridge could bring a windfall ?500,000.

:15:39. > :15:47.After all, it is the world's oldest cup competition.

:15:48. > :15:51.But last night came added pressure, with prize money at stake,

:15:52. > :15:54.also the prestige of a trip to the Premier League leaders

:15:55. > :16:00.Peterborough prayed for a fast start, their prayers were answered.

:16:01. > :16:09.Inside two minutes, Edwards gives Peterborough the lead.

:16:10. > :16:11.Minutes later, Posh could begin dreaming of a date

:16:12. > :16:17.at Stamford Bridge in the New Year, as Paul Taylor doubled their lead.

:16:18. > :16:23.Taylor firing an early warning to Chelsea with a goal that

:16:24. > :16:27.would grace any game in the Premier League.

:16:28. > :16:29.All in all, I know what cup games are like.

:16:30. > :16:34.Notts County gave a really good go hit the post,

:16:35. > :16:36.sorry, hit the crossbar, the keeper's had to make

:16:37. > :16:40.a save from a penalty, and just thankful we are there now.

:16:41. > :16:42.I don't really sleep well after a game, to be honest.

:16:43. > :16:44.I think with all the adrenaline and that.

:16:45. > :16:48.But, no, everyone's buzzing, everyone around the ground, players,

:16:49. > :16:57.Victory over Notts County took Posh's earnings to ?45,000 so far,

:16:58. > :17:02.but with sides sharing profits of game receipt, the hoping

:17:03. > :17:05.to make around 500,000 from the next round at Chelsea.

:17:06. > :17:08.The money is brilliant for the club, and the glory for the players

:17:09. > :17:14.The romance of the FA Cup, there's always an upset, you know,

:17:15. > :17:17.it looks an impossibility, it looks as though we'll have to go

:17:18. > :17:20.there and provide a miracle, but miracles happen in football,

:17:21. > :17:26.We can go there, enjoy the day out, we can bring seven or 8,000

:17:27. > :17:29.Peterborough fans with us, and some of the boys will never

:17:30. > :17:31.experience it again, so we will go there and enjoy it.

:17:32. > :17:38.They are currently in the play-offs, and on January 8th, the chance to

:17:39. > :17:48.In rugby, Northampton Saints have escaped punishment for the way

:17:49. > :17:50.they dealt with a head injury to their winger George North

:17:51. > :17:54.Medical staff allowed him to stay on despite footage

:17:55. > :17:57.which appeared to show that he was knocked unconscious.

:17:58. > :17:59.In effect the review team have blamed the system

:18:00. > :18:09.James Burridge is at Franklin's Gardens.

:18:10. > :18:16.Huge relief hearing Northampton tonight as a result of the outcome

:18:17. > :18:20.of this investigation come with the RFU working with premiership rugby.

:18:21. > :18:23.Because George North is one of the most watched players in world rugby.

:18:24. > :18:29.He also happens to be one of the most concussed, so when his club is

:18:30. > :18:30.being linked to failings with treatment and care of the player, it

:18:31. > :18:31.becomes a big story. This was the incident which has

:18:32. > :18:34.caused so much controversy. George North lying motionless

:18:35. > :18:36.after a midair tackle The medical team immediately

:18:37. > :18:39.running to treat him. North was given a pitch side

:18:40. > :18:44.assessment lasting eight minutes, Like all premiership clubs,

:18:45. > :18:49.the medics reviewed the incident on computers, but they missed these

:18:50. > :18:53.particular replay shots, which appeared to show

:18:54. > :18:57.the player concussed. The club accepts North they have

:18:58. > :19:00.lost consciousness and should not The investigation panel are not

:19:01. > :19:04.going to punish the club. They believe they acted

:19:05. > :19:06.in the player's best interests and followed

:19:07. > :19:10.the correct medical procedures. That is their immediate priority

:19:11. > :19:18.in everything that they do. They are not about winning games,

:19:19. > :19:21.not about helping me get better players out on the field or back

:19:22. > :19:24.out, it is always player welfare. And they have admitted that

:19:25. > :19:28.if they so a different view of the incident,

:19:29. > :19:33.they would have reacted differently. Two years ago, I filmed

:19:34. > :19:36.behind-the-scenes with They train to try and prevent

:19:37. > :19:48.cases like George North's This investigation has

:19:49. > :19:54.effectively blamed the system, and concluded with nine

:19:55. > :19:57.recommendations to make sure this type of incident

:19:58. > :20:02.does not happen again. Lenny Newman is a former first-team

:20:03. > :20:05.manager and player at Northampton who missed a whole season

:20:06. > :20:09.because of concussion. I mean, the club admit they got it

:20:10. > :20:11.wrong, but they have But it wasn't through negligence,

:20:12. > :20:16.if there is no negligence I can't see how there can be any punishment

:20:17. > :20:21.for what is effectively a system that is not up to scratch

:20:22. > :20:25.with modern-day professionals. The worrying thing is, if anything,

:20:26. > :20:29.the only thing the medical staff at Northampton should have done

:20:30. > :20:32.is pulled the player if there is any reasonable doubt

:20:33. > :20:37.that he had been concussed. George North all along has said

:20:38. > :20:40.he was not concussed, has since returned to training,

:20:41. > :20:42.and has been cleared But it is clear the system

:20:43. > :21:01.and the means of protecting players One should note is that some people

:21:02. > :21:03.are looking at the bands that players get the high tackles and

:21:04. > :21:08.dangerous play. They can be eight or ten weeks or more, and yet there

:21:09. > :21:13.have been no repercussions in this for the club. For the powers that be

:21:14. > :21:17.here, and for the game, big implications mean if there is no

:21:18. > :21:18.punishment this time. Thank you, James.

:21:19. > :21:21.For many people it's one of the highlights of Christmas -

:21:22. > :21:26.The service is broadcast live on Christmas Eve on Radio 4 at 3pm -

:21:27. > :21:30.Then, of course, there's Carols from King's,

:21:31. > :21:33.a special pre-recorded service for TV, which also goes out

:21:34. > :21:54.Candles, choristers, carols at Kings.

:21:55. > :21:59.There can't be many more things more Christmassy than this.

:22:00. > :22:02.The dress rehearsal for the BBC's broadcast.

:22:03. > :22:07.The real thing, seen, heard by millions.

:22:08. > :22:09.In a sense, we're rehearsing all the time, because when we're

:22:10. > :22:12.singing evensong in the chapel, during term time, we're

:22:13. > :22:17.So the actual music that we're singing at the carol

:22:18. > :22:20.services and concerts, probably, we're getting to grips

:22:21. > :22:24.with that round about the end of November, early December.

:22:25. > :22:29.The boys from King's College School, 16 nine to 13-year-olds.

:22:30. > :22:32.Last month they gave a sneak preview to the Prince of Wales

:22:33. > :22:35.and the Duchess of Cornwall for this year's service of

:22:36. > :22:45.Mondays and Wednesdays, we don't have any chapel,

:22:46. > :22:50.On Wednesday we get to go out with our parents.

:22:51. > :22:53.It's a really, like, close family, and we do a lot

:22:54. > :22:57.of enjoyable things together, and lots of fun and jokes.

:22:58. > :23:00.You have to give as much as you can to your choir life,

:23:01. > :23:04.but at the same time, really get a break sometimes,

:23:05. > :23:08.and you have to do that in things such as sport,

:23:09. > :23:12.They fit this around school, and then when they have the school

:23:13. > :23:15.holidays, they go and travel, and they get to work

:23:16. > :23:21.I think that's what is a very special opportunity,

:23:22. > :23:27.but they can remain grounded and be little boys at the same time.

:23:28. > :23:31.The first televised service was in 1954.

:23:32. > :23:35.These days, two performances - one recorded for TV,

:23:36. > :23:38.the other live, Christmas Eve, on the radio.

:23:39. > :23:41.It has become a much loved annual institution.

:23:42. > :23:55.For many, something to treasure in the Christmas schedule.

:23:56. > :24:00.We had lovely singing outside the window here, didn't we?

:24:01. > :24:03.And there is more Christmas music tomorrow and on Friday.

:24:04. > :24:05.Tomorrow, a very different version of I Believe in Father Christmas

:24:06. > :24:08.by a 14-year-old girl who is being tipped for great things by

:24:09. > :24:11.And on Friday the choir of Norwich Cathedral

:24:12. > :24:25.Let's get the weather. Good evening, winter solstice is

:24:26. > :24:29.here from tomorrow and the day is start getting longer. We had grey

:24:30. > :24:34.sunrise shots to show you for tonight, this one taken in

:24:35. > :24:39.Cambridgeshire this morning. The sun very weak in the sky there. And a

:24:40. > :24:42.lovely one here from Lowestoft. A mixture of weather conditions, some

:24:43. > :24:48.bright weather are also some cloud and rain for some of us as well.

:24:49. > :24:51.This weather front coming in from the North West during the course of

:24:52. > :24:57.the acronym, and behind it some colder air coming our way. But mild

:24:58. > :25:00.conditions for much of today. Some rain affecting southern and eastern

:25:01. > :25:03.parts of the region, a lot of it quite light and patchy, but it will

:25:04. > :25:08.continue to clear his words, northern parts of the region likely

:25:09. > :25:13.to stay dry. Cloud cover around, but through the night, it will become

:25:14. > :25:16.clear overhead, and we could get some mist and fog patches

:25:17. > :25:20.developing, and also some chilly temperatures for tonight, many of us

:25:21. > :25:27.getting down close to freezing, if not below. A risk of frost and some

:25:28. > :25:30.icy patches. A chilly start to Thursday, but a lot of fine weather

:25:31. > :25:36.around, high pressure building in from the south west. A fairly calm

:25:37. > :25:40.day, winds will pick up later on. Later on through the day, some mist

:25:41. > :25:43.and fog starting first thing, but it looks like there will be a lot of

:25:44. > :25:47.fine weather in the middle of the day. A chilly field to things, but

:25:48. > :25:53.with the sunshine amperage is hopefully climbing to 7 degrees.

:25:54. > :25:55.Wind ways, there will be a light south-westerly, but that will

:25:56. > :25:58.increase as we go through the afternoon into the evening.

:25:59. > :26:03.Increasing amounts of cloud as well. A cloudy picture for Friday.

:26:04. > :26:11.Integrating this weekend, things are lightening up a bit -- into

:26:12. > :26:14.Christmas weekend. Storm Barbara likely to affect the north-west of

:26:15. > :26:18.the UK into the Christmas weekend, and we will not get the brunt of it,

:26:19. > :26:22.but we will get strong winds coming in from the South West. Certainly

:26:23. > :26:27.lost three conditions and the chance of some rain, but quite a lot of dry

:26:28. > :26:33.weather -- blustery conditions. Friday looking dry cloudy with rain

:26:34. > :26:39.pushing in later. Wind is picking up, the strength of the wind and the

:26:40. > :26:44.factor of the wind-chill, a cold and blustery night expected. Into

:26:45. > :26:50.Christmas eve, largely dry the bulk of the day, still quite chilly,

:26:51. > :26:54.there could be an isolated shower. For Christmas Day, much milder

:26:55. > :27:01.conditions, highs of 13 Celsius, but the chance of rain later. For Friday

:27:02. > :27:11.onwards, expect windy conditions. Thank you. 13 degrees Christmas Day!

:27:12. > :27:16.Probably means no snowmen. We will see you tomorrow. Goodbye.
