is up for the fight and dreaming of London 2012. | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
"I'm innocent and I've been set up." That's what Graeme Jarman told | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
a court when he appeared for the first time today, charged with | :01:08. | :01:11. | |
murder. Mr Jarman, from Consett in County Durham, is accused of | :01:11. | :01:14. | |
killing 77-year-old Judith Richardson. She was found dead at | :01:14. | :01:16. | |
her home in Hexham in Northumberland last month. Our | :01:16. | :01:26. | |
:01:26. | :01:27. | ||
correspondent, Mark Denten, was in court today. | :01:27. | :01:31. | |
Graeme Jarman appeared before Newcastle magistrates for six | :01:31. | :01:38. | |
minutes. Wearing a blue sweatshirt, a balding, with cropped grey hair, | :01:38. | :01:44. | |
he spoke confidently when saying his name. Speaking in court, Jarman | :01:44. | :01:48. | |
said, "I am not guilty of these charges and, as far as I'm | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
concerned, it is a set-up." He is charged with the murder of | :01:51. | :01:55. | |
pensioner Judith Richardson at her home in Hexham. She was battered to | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
death at her home in St Wilfred's Close in the town with a hammer. | :01:59. | :02:02. | |
Police had called to her house to return her handbag which was found | :02:02. | :02:05. | |
by a passer-by in a litter bin on Clayton Street in Newcastle. Graeme | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
Jarman was arrested in Filey on Saturday at a library after a | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
member of staff called North Yorkshire police. He was questioned | :02:11. | :02:20. | |
by officers and charged with murder yesterday. Graeme Jarman was | :02:20. | :02:23. | |
remanded in custody and will appear before Newcastle Crown Court on | :02:23. | :02:30. | |
21st September. The police have today been | :02:30. | :02:33. | |
explaining why they fired an unauthorised taser gun in a stand- | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
off with the fugitive gunman Raoul Moat. An inquest was told that | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
officers believed it was the best chance of taking him alive, even | :02:40. | :02:45. | |
though its use had yet to be approved. Moat died last year after | :02:45. | :02:49. | |
he was cornered by police in the Northumberland town of Rothbury. | :02:49. | :02:52. | |
Live now to Peter Harris, who has been following the inquest at | :02:52. | :03:02. | |
:03:02. | :03:02. | ||
Newcastle Crown Court. They wanted to take him alive, that | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
is the crux of the police case. They thought that any stand-off | :03:07. | :03:12. | |
Woodend one of two ways - either they would kill -- he would kill | :03:12. | :03:17. | |
them more he would kill himself. That is why they brought in a taser | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
gun, even though it had not been authorised yet for use in this | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
country. They thought it was worth the risk because they thought it | :03:26. | :03:32. | |
was their best chance, perhaps their only chance, of bringing | :03:32. | :03:40. | |
Raoul Moat out alive. The shotgun taser. This is the weapon the | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
police were given as they hunted Raoul Moat. Described as non-lethal, | :03:43. | :03:46. | |
they thought it was an option to arrest him without him ending up | :03:46. | :03:56. | |
dead. There was a catch. It had not yet been approved for use in the UK. | :03:56. | :03:59. | |
The police wanted it anyway. Assistant Chief Constable Steve | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
Ashman told Moat's inquest they feared Moat would seek a showdown. | :04:03. | :04:06. | |
The taser, which fires a high- voltage charge, could allow them to | :04:06. | :04:11. | |
take him alive and bring him to justice. And so he decided to issue | :04:11. | :04:17. | |
the weapon, even though it was still being tested. Mr Ashman told | :04:17. | :04:21. | |
the jury: "It might prevent him killing himself or putting us in a | :04:21. | :04:31. | |
:04:31. | :04:33. | ||
position where we had to kill him." Later it was put to the jury that | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
the company who supplied the taser was a respected supplier, it was | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
not, the jury was told, some kind of Arthur Daley operation being | :04:40. | :04:45. | |
offered off the back of a lorry. The police had been contacted by | :04:45. | :04:49. | |
Peter Boatman while Moat was on the run, offering the taser shotgun. He | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
was described in court as a respected figure and a former | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
police officer. He said they had considered the European Human | :04:55. | :05:00. | |
Rights Act and Moat's right to life. And so they hired the taser, he | :05:00. | :05:10. | |
:05:10. | :05:14. | ||
said - unauthorised, but their best chance of taking him alive. Use all | :05:14. | :05:17. | |
there the assistant Chief Constable. He was questioned by the solicitor | :05:17. | :05:22. | |
representing Raoul Moat's family. He asked if if it was right to use | :05:22. | :05:28. | |
the weapon if they were not sure of what the consequences would be. The | :05:28. | :05:35. | |
officer replied, "we thought it was our only chance of getting Raoul | :05:35. | :05:38. | |
Moat out alive, bringing him to justice. Therefore, it was worth | :05:38. | :05:48. | |
the risk." The woman who survived a 60 foot fall from a ferry into the | :05:48. | :05:51. | |
North Sea says she thought she was going to die. Jeni Anderson spent | :05:51. | :05:55. | |
up to 30 minutes in the water after falling from a DFDS ferry from | :05:55. | :05:57. | |
Newcastle to Amsterdam on Monday. She says she kept swimming and | :05:58. | :06:00. | |
screaming to make sure she was found. The 23-year-old says she | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
can't remember how she ended up falling from the deck. The ferry | :06:03. | :06:11. | |
turned around and found her before she was airlifted to safety. | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
A man who claims he was one of dozens of boys abused at a Catholic | :06:15. | :06:18. | |
community home in Yorkshire fears he may not live long enough to get | :06:18. | :06:23. | |
any compensation. Robert Maxwell, from York, lived in the St | :06:23. | :06:27. | |
William's home in Market Weighton in the Sixties. Legal wrangles are | :06:27. | :06:30. | |
continuing in the courts, but Mr Maxwell is now battling a terminal | :06:30. | :06:40. | |
:06:40. | :06:42. | ||
illness. John Cundy reports. St William's College - for 30 years, | :06:42. | :06:49. | |
for some boys, a home run under her reign of fear or. One headmaster | :06:50. | :06:56. | |
was found guilty and jailed for 14 years. Robert Maxwell is one of | :06:56. | :07:01. | |
more than 150 former pupils seeking compensation. But, with terminal | :07:01. | :07:07. | |
cancer, time is running short for him. The lads did not talk about it | :07:07. | :07:13. | |
properly. You did not sit and talk about it, but we all knew. This | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
legal wrangle has already been going on for more than six years | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
and, even if the Supreme Court rules against the Catholic church | :07:20. | :07:25. | |
next year, it may be several years beyond that before any compensation | :07:25. | :07:34. | |
is won by anyone. This solicitor represents all of the complainants. | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
For this to happen in such a secluded spot with people who were | :07:37. | :07:41. | |
entirely trusted has been a shocking experience for me. What | :07:41. | :07:47. | |
are Robert's options now? He can pursue justice right to the very | :07:47. | :07:50. | |
end, in which case he will not see the end of his case. His relatives | :07:50. | :07:57. | |
will continue the case to the end. Another option could be for him to | :07:57. | :08:03. | |
ask for some compassion from the diocese of Middlesbrough and seek | :08:03. | :08:11. | |
an early settlement of his case before he passes away. I cannot | :08:11. | :08:18. | |
believe it. They say they have got justice but a lot of them have been | :08:18. | :08:23. | |
not getting the justice that they deserve. A 60s scandal still | :08:24. | :08:33. | |
without resolution for many. It's been branded as "a victory for | :08:33. | :08:36. | |
the Keep Cumbria Boring campaign". Well, that was the reaction today | :08:36. | :08:38. | |
from one high-profile supporter of proposals for a controversial mile- | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
long mountain zip wire which were turned down by Lake District | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
planners. The owners of the Honister Slate Mine near Keswick | :08:44. | :08:46. | |
wanted to build the daring attraction to attract new, younger | :08:46. | :08:50. | |
tourists. But members of the National Park Authority said it was | :08:50. | :09:00. | |
:09:00. | :09:01. | ||
a step too far. Mark McAlindon reports. At 1,200 metre zip wire | :09:01. | :09:08. | |
was a bold idea, offering, said the orders, adventurer and exciting | :09:08. | :09:16. | |
experience. But today a majority of members of the Lake District | :09:16. | :09:18. | |
National Park Authority couldn't bring themselves to approve it, | :09:18. | :09:21. | |
saying it would destroy the tranquillity of the high fells. | :09:21. | :09:23. | |
That has provoked bitter disappointment. They can be very | :09:23. | :09:26. | |
pleased with themselves. It is another example of not really in it | :09:26. | :09:29. | |
-- engaging with the young Joe debt -- the younger generation are | :09:29. | :09:35. | |
moving with the times. It is something that you cannot see and | :09:35. | :09:41. | |
the only sign would be a few people calling out. If it had gone ahead | :09:41. | :09:44. | |
it would have been the biggest in the northern hemisphere and | :09:44. | :09:48. | |
comparable only to a wire ride in Sun City, South Africa. Here, its | :09:48. | :09:55. | |
backers claimed Lake District planners were stuck in the past. | :09:55. | :09:59. | |
They have hidden behind a policy that was written too long ago. The | :09:59. | :10:03. | |
majority was written in the 1950s, their newest was right it -- | :10:03. | :10:09. | |
written in the 1970s. How can we live by that now? The world is a | :10:09. | :10:13. | |
different place. But those who opposed the zip wire said it was | :10:13. | :10:16. | |
just a step too far in a delicate environment with wider issues at | :10:16. | :10:22. | |
stake. We have always said that it is a concept we support. -- it can | :10:22. | :10:28. | |
encompass lots of different things. There are lots of high adrenaline | :10:28. | :10:32. | |
activities that would attract a wider demographic to the Lake | :10:32. | :10:36. | |
District. There is room to incorporate these sorts of things | :10:36. | :10:40. | |
without damaging the environment in such a significant in her -- | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
significant way, like this development would have done. | :10:43. | :10:46. | |
owners of Honister Slate Mine say they will fight on, but their hopes | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
of a new attraction in the Lake District ready for next summer are, | :10:49. | :10:52. | |
for now, dashed. Mark McAlindon, BBC Look North, Cumbria. | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
And there'll be more reaction to that decision on Ian Timms' | :10:55. | :10:58. | |
breakfast show on BBC Radio Cumbria from 6:30 in the morning. Still to | :10:58. | :11:01. | |
come on tonight's Look North: Wednesday's Sportsdesk, plus John | :11:01. | :11:04. | |
Grundy takes us upstairs and downstairs in two of Britain's best | :11:04. | :11:12. | |
loved stately homes. And I will be here with the weather | :11:12. | :11:20. | |
forecast, including a look forward to the weekend. | :11:20. | :11:23. | |
A doctor has been describing the horrors of treating people wounded | :11:23. | :11:26. | |
in the fight for Libya. Dr Tareq Etri has just returned from a | :11:26. | :11:31. | |
second journey to his homeland, torn apart by war. Dr Etri normally | :11:31. | :11:34. | |
works with sick children at North Tyneside Hospital, but says he felt | :11:34. | :11:44. | |
:11:44. | :11:46. | ||
compelled to go to the front line. Gerry Jackson reports. His work as | :11:46. | :11:53. | |
a Tyneside paediatrician is vital enough, but the scenes of war in | :11:53. | :11:57. | |
Libya Amboise a call that Tareq Etri could not ignore. He set up an | :11:57. | :12:01. | |
intensive care unit close to the rebel front lines. He shot his own | :12:01. | :12:07. | |
video. Much of it we cannot show. You have somebody without flesh, | :12:07. | :12:13. | |
you will have a limb - half of it is not there. Tareq found himself | :12:13. | :12:16. | |
treating wounded from both sides, and those with no quarrel with | :12:16. | :12:26. | |
:12:26. | :12:26. | ||
anybody. One baby victim we tried our best to transfer from a war | :12:26. | :12:30. | |
zone to another hospital. We could not do so. After four days of | :12:30. | :12:36. | |
struggling we lost that baby. That left a very strong memories in my | :12:36. | :12:40. | |
mind. Tareq's parents and seven brothers and sisters still live in | :12:40. | :12:43. | |
Libya. As the fighting intensified last month, he returned again, this | :12:43. | :12:51. | |
time as part of a multinational team setting up field hospitals. | :12:52. | :12:57. | |
thought it would be a mobile building with a theatre in it and a | :12:57. | :13:04. | |
clinic, but no, it was basically primitive equipment to stop people | :13:04. | :13:08. | |
bleeding to death. Tareq says, if he's needed, he will return to | :13:08. | :13:15. | |
Libya for a third time in this war. He feels certain the call will come. | :13:15. | :13:19. | |
The war in Libya is not over. Maybe the regime is down but actually | :13:19. | :13:28. | |
what is left behind is still there and we still need help, definitely. | :13:28. | :13:35. | |
That is a worthwhile job, isn't it? It took 30 years to have her first | :13:35. | :13:38. | |
book published and now Hollywood beckons. Janet Foxley, an author | :13:38. | :13:41. | |
from Cumbria, won a competition last year which saw her book, | :13:41. | :13:43. | |
Muncle Trogg, published. It's about a vertically challenged giant so | :13:43. | :13:47. | |
small he decides to live with humans. Now a US production company | :13:47. | :13:51. | |
says it's developing an animated version of the story. If you're | :13:51. | :14:01. | |
sitting comfortably, here's Alison Freeman to tell us more. | :14:01. | :14:07. | |
He tried to wriggle out of his brother's grip. He was going to be | :14:07. | :14:12. | |
sick if he was dangled upside down for much longer. | :14:12. | :14:17. | |
At 67, most people are enjoying their retirement, but not Janet | :14:17. | :14:21. | |
Foxley. She is working on her fledgling career as a children's | :14:21. | :14:25. | |
author and Hollywood film writer. Discovered by the same publisher | :14:25. | :14:33. | |
who found JK rolling, she is not so keen on the comparison. I think | :14:33. | :14:37. | |
other people's expectations of what I might do are far greater than my | :14:37. | :14:42. | |
own, possibly because this has come to any when I have accumulated | :14:42. | :14:46. | |
enough years and was then to be fairly realistic. Rather than | :14:46. | :14:50. | |
excitement, I think I feel a glow of fulfilment inside. It is really | :14:50. | :14:55. | |
nice, after having worked so hard for so many years, to have my work | :14:55. | :15:02. | |
recognised by people who really know what a good children's book is. | :15:02. | :15:07. | |
Squirrels on a skewer, badger burgers, crunchy hedgehog Piet... | :15:07. | :15:12. | |
Janet has been writing for more than 30 years, but her tale of the | :15:12. | :15:18. | |
giant who is too small to fit in one an award last year. Her book, | :15:18. | :15:24. | |
Bookmark, is being turned into an animated film. Everyone was saying | :15:24. | :15:34. | |
:15:34. | :15:40. | ||
how good she was. -- Muncle Trogg. It has changed instantly from being | :15:40. | :15:44. | |
-- from her being one of hundreds of aspiring writers to being a | :15:44. | :15:49. | |
published author. Janet's fund is the world has been | :15:49. | :15:53. | |
inspired by the view from her home. She does not be yet believe that | :15:53. | :15:59. | |
all the plans form her book will become a reality. My literary | :15:59. | :16:09. | |
executors will do very nicely out of me! | :16:09. | :16:11. | |
Now, every year Cragside and Wallington are amongst the most | :16:11. | :16:14. | |
visited National Trust stately homes in the country. Each of these | :16:14. | :16:16. | |
Northumberland properties has a wealth of beautiful rooms for | :16:16. | :16:20. | |
everyone to see, and each also has its own secrets. For the first in a | :16:20. | :16:23. | |
new series of Grundy's North, John has been allowed upstairs to the | :16:23. | :16:26. | |
very top of the house at Cragside, and downstairs into the cellars and | :16:26. | :16:36. | |
:16:36. | :16:43. | ||
tunnels beneath the state rooms at There are no finer places in the | :16:43. | :16:53. | |
:16:53. | :16:55. | ||
north than the National Trust's great Northumbrian houses. | :16:55. | :17:01. | |
Wallington has fantastic gardens while Cragside is a magical place. | :17:01. | :17:09. | |
I have loved for a long time that Hansel and Gretel effect on the | :17:09. | :17:15. | |
roof. Both houses have more to them than meets the eye. Cragside, in | :17:15. | :17:21. | |
fact, has loads more than meets the eye of most casual punters. | :17:21. | :17:28. | |
Visitors get shown 30 superb rooms but the house actually possesses | :17:28. | :17:37. | |
103 rooms, which leaves 73 rooms which never meet anybody's I, | :17:37. | :17:46. | |
except mine! I boldly go where other people are not allowed. I | :17:47. | :17:56. | |
always think of this colour as servants' Brown. What lies behind | :17:56. | :18:01. | |
these undemonstrative doors. It seems that most of them are being | :18:01. | :18:11. | |
:18:11. | :18:12. | ||
used as junk rooms. Good grief, it is my basket of babies! I used to | :18:13. | :18:16. | |
bring people to see this when it was on display downstairs. It must | :18:16. | :18:19. | |
be one of the least tasteful works of art ever made. I am delighted to | :18:19. | :18:26. | |
see it again. Here we are at the very top of the House, at Hansel | :18:26. | :18:30. | |
und Gretel's cottage. What mysteries luck behind this mystical | :18:30. | :18:39. | |
door? Will there be of which? A Sleeping Beauty? -- will there be a | :18:39. | :18:44. | |
witch? Not quite the romance I was dreaming of, but I bet the view | :18:44. | :18:50. | |
from outside is lovely. If Cragside's hidden secrets took me | :18:51. | :18:55. | |
high up into the roof, at Wallington I've been taken down, | :18:55. | :19:01. | |
deep underneath the house. Underneath Wallington there is an | :19:01. | :19:11. | |
:19:11. | :19:15. | ||
absolute Warren of old cellars and strange, twisty corridors. Above me | :19:15. | :19:21. | |
are some fine Georgian rooms built around 1740. Nothing down here was | :19:21. | :19:25. | |
built then - this is all medieval stonework, and this is a medieval | :19:25. | :19:29. | |
window. Occasionally there are storms which seemed even more | :19:29. | :19:35. | |
ancient. There is one here that his card with the sign of the Roman 9th | :19:35. | :19:39. | |
Legion. It is not what it seems - it was carved by one of the | :19:39. | :19:47. | |
Trevelyan children as a successful scam to fill his mother. -- to full | :19:47. | :19:57. | |
:19:57. | :19:58. | ||
his mother. They would use candle smoke to write mysterious messages | :19:58. | :20:02. | |
on the walls. The use this place as an adventure playground. And who | :20:02. | :20:07. | |
can blame them? As you stroll around the glories of Wallington | :20:07. | :20:11. | |
and Cragside, do not forget the curiosities that lark above your | :20:11. | :20:19. | |
head or beneath your feet. It has been a long time since I | :20:19. | :20:29. | |
:20:29. | :20:30. | ||
said this, but it is time for the sport now. | :20:30. | :20:32. | |
Six times they've been to the finals of the Football League | :20:32. | :20:35. | |
Trophy, under all its various sponsorships. It's almost their | :20:35. | :20:39. | |
competition. But just five months after beating Brentford at Wembley | :20:39. | :20:42. | |
to win the Johnstone's Paint Trophy, Carlisle are no longer the holders. | :20:42. | :20:51. | |
But that can happen when you finish a cup tie with only nine men. More | :20:51. | :20:56. | |
than 40,000 fans had roared them to victory back in April. Just over | :20:56. | :21:02. | |
1001 at the ground last night to see the blues fall behind to a goal | :21:02. | :21:06. | |
from Accrington's Craig Linfield. Worse was to come when this tackle | :21:06. | :21:09. | |
earned captain and Wembley match- winner Peter Murphy his second | :21:09. | :21:12. | |
yellow card before half-time. Carlisle were back in it when Jon | :21:12. | :21:15. | |
Paul McGovern levelled on the hour mark. And they looked set for Round | :21:15. | :21:17. | |
Two when Francois Zoko headed in a Two when Francois Zoko headed in a | :21:17. | :21:20. | |
corner from James Berret. But then Berret joined Murphy in the stands | :21:20. | :21:23. | |
after picking up his second yellow. That left United to play the last | :21:23. | :21:29. | |
quarter of an hour with nine. And they held out until four minutes | :21:30. | :21:33. | |
from time. Padraig Amond made it 2- 2. And suddenly it was all over - | :21:33. | :21:36. | |
90 minutes on the clock, the unmarked Andy Proctor with | :21:36. | :21:44. | |
Accrington's winner. Yorkshire's battle to avoid | :21:44. | :21:49. | |
relegation goes on. But it has been a frustrating day at Headingley. | :21:49. | :21:56. | |
They resume tomorrow on 140 for 3. Now to another of the region's | :21:56. | :21:59. | |
athletes chasing the Olympic dream. Sarah Clark from South Shields has | :21:59. | :22:02. | |
enjoyed a long career in the sport of judo. In fact, she's a former | :22:02. | :22:05. | |
European champion. Success at the Olympics has, so far, been beyond | :22:05. | :22:11. | |
But, in 2012, the 33-year-old aims to put that right. Katie Gornall | :22:11. | :22:21. | |
:22:21. | :22:22. | ||
went to meet her at her training She is a fierce competitor, | :22:22. | :22:28. | |
somebody who never gives up. There would be no player more deserving | :22:28. | :22:36. | |
of an Olympic medal, as far as how dedicated, focused and professional | :22:36. | :22:44. | |
she is. Sarah Clark is a former European | :22:44. | :22:47. | |
champion and the Commonwealth simple -- silver-medallist. She has | :22:47. | :22:52. | |
competed in Athens and Beijing, although she is yet to achieve | :22:52. | :22:57. | |
their ultimate goal of winning an Olympic medal. And Sarah Clark's | :22:57. | :23:07. | |
:23:07. | :23:08. | ||
Olympic nightmare is revisited. have had a lot more lows than highs. | :23:08. | :23:12. | |
I have learned to deal with that. If it were easy, we would all be | :23:12. | :23:22. | |
:23:22. | :23:22. | ||
Olympic champions. It is how she deals with defeat and | :23:22. | :23:29. | |
disappointment. In Beijing we had a conversation, saying, you are world | :23:29. | :23:34. | |
ranked and you can finish now, you can get on with the rest of your | :23:34. | :23:40. | |
life. One day after losing the first round, she said, no, I am | :23:40. | :23:45. | |
going to London. Team GB has already been awarded 14 judo | :23:45. | :23:48. | |
qualification places for the London Olympics, and Clark is one of the | :23:48. | :23:56. | |
front-runners to be selected. superpowers in judo are Franz, | :23:57. | :24:02. | |
Japan and Korea. There is not one player from those teams that Sarah | :24:02. | :24:07. | |
has not beaten. It is amazing that you can produce a player who has | :24:07. | :24:11. | |
come from a club in South Shields who has got into the top of her | :24:11. | :24:20. | |
game and can compete internationally. Sarah now trains | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
at Scotland's National Judo Centre, and for the past seven years has | :24:23. | :24:26. | |
lived here in Edinburgh. It is just like one big family. Everyone has | :24:26. | :24:36. | |
chosen to be here, especially those from down south. We have the coach | :24:36. | :24:44. | |
that you want to have with you when you are going to the Olympic Games. | :24:44. | :24:48. | |
Putting it all together in one day in London is the hardest thing. The | :24:48. | :24:51. | |
environment and the crowd could make that happen. To do it in front | :24:51. | :24:54. | |
of a home crowd and my family and friends would be fantastic. It | :24:54. | :24:59. | |
would be great for the sport. would make South Shields a very | :24:59. | :25:02. | |
happy place as well, I imagine. would love to go back there with my | :25:02. | :25:12. | |
:25:12. | :25:16. | ||
medal. Hannah tells us that the weather is | :25:16. | :25:26. | |
:25:26. | :25:46. | ||
Tomorrow will be much less breezy and we are expecting some bright | :25:46. | :25:51. | |
spells. A better day all round. It is still wet this evening in the | :25:51. | :25:59. | |
West for a time. It should start to dry out by the early hours of the | :25:59. | :26:09. | |
:26:09. | :26:13. | ||
morning. A cooler night than last night. There will be a few showers | :26:13. | :26:19. | |
in the West tomorrow. Those die away through the afternoon. There | :26:19. | :26:25. | |
will be more sunshine than we had today for much of North Yorkshire. | :26:25. | :26:35. | |
:26:35. | :26:38. | ||
The wind will be lighter. There could be one or two showers | :26:38. | :26:47. | |
brushing the Cumbrian coast as well. It will be showery on Friday and | :26:47. | :26:54. | |
then strong winds and heavy winds for the weekend in the West. | :26:54. | :27:04. | |

Saturday looks the best day of the Now for a final look at tonight's | :27:10. | :27:13. | |
headlines. There are new calls for the 50p tax | :27:13. | :27:17. |
