Hello, and welcome to Friday's Look North. Tonight's headlines: A | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
television appeal brings new leads in the case of a little girl | :00:09. | :00:19. | |
murdered 21 years ago. Just hoping it is not a hoax. The emotions have | :00:19. | :00:25. | |
all come back and I was worried about my other three children. | :00:25. | :00:29. | |
Eight years after an heiress went missing, a man appears in court | :00:29. | :00:31. | |
charged with murder. Why the home of Blue Peter has found | :00:31. | :00:36. | |
a new home on Wearside. And doing it for Dad — the | :00:36. | :00:39. | |
first—time Great North Runner following in her father's footsteps. | :00:39. | :00:52. | |
And I am live in Gateshead with Mo Farah. | :00:52. | :01:02. | |
It's hoped the 21—year—old murder of a little girl in Sunderland can | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
still be solved, after a renewed appeal was made on the BBC's | :01:05. | :01:10. | |
Crimewatch programme. Nikki Allan, who was seven, was stabbed and | :01:10. | :01:14. | |
beaten to death in the Wear Garth area of Sunderland in 1992. Her | :01:14. | :01:18. | |
distraught mother has since fought a long battle to keep the | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
investigation alive after one man was tried and acquitted of Nikki's | :01:21. | :01:26. | |
murder. Well, after last night's reconstruction, police say they're | :01:26. | :01:29. | |
following up a number of fresh leads. Mark McAlindon reports. | :01:29. | :01:36. | |
Last night's Crimewatch reconstruction captured the moments | :01:36. | :01:40. | |
which led up to the killing of Nikki Allan, a little girl making her way | :01:40. | :01:44. | |
home one October evening. It's 21 years since she skipped innocently | :01:45. | :01:47. | |
through familiar streets, but time may as well have stood still for her | :01:47. | :01:57. | |
mother. I have been in mental hospitals, and when it all came to a | :01:57. | :02:08. | |
head, I lost weight and got drugs from the doctor, but I still have | :02:09. | :02:13. | |
the strength to carry on. One man, a neighbour, did stand trial for | :02:13. | :02:15. | |
Nikki's murder, but a taped confession was ruled inadmissible | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
and he was cleared. Since then, Sharon has battled hard to keep the | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
investigation alive. And last night there was one call to the programme | :02:23. | :02:30. | |
which offered hope. We got a call from someone local, who actually | :02:30. | :02:36. | |
spoke to the enquiry team at the time, but have contacted us today to | :02:36. | :02:42. | |
say they withheld information that may be potentially significant. We | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
have officers of speaking to them now. And so far, there's been a | :02:45. | :02:48. | |
promising response. In 1992, these buildings were | :02:48. | :03:00. | |
derelict. The police are hoping to trace people who may have used | :03:00. | :03:07. | |
them, to see if they can remember anything that might help them catch | :03:07. | :03:12. | |
Nikki's Keller. We are positive about the whole enquiry. There was a | :03:12. | :03:18. | |
number of people arrested at the time but acquitted, and we will be | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
looking at all aspects of the enquiry. Sharon knows she can't get | :03:21. | :03:26. | |
her hopes up — not after 21 years of frustration. So, last night she | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
watched with friends from a support group. She feels alone, and it is | :03:29. | :03:37. | |
always helpful to have someone to listen. That's what friends do. They | :03:37. | :03:47. | |
understand what I'm going through. They have kept me alive, because I | :03:47. | :03:51. | |
would have committed suicide by now. Sharon must now wait to see if calls | :03:51. | :03:55. | |
from the appeal do yield crucial evidence. After 21 years, she's used | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
to it, although it doesn't make it any easier. | :03:58. | :04:07. | |
Police are investigating after a woman was found dead on South | :04:07. | :04:11. | |
Tyneside. They were called to a home in Church View in Boldon around 11 | :04:11. | :04:16. | |
this morning. Officers found the body of a woman there. A 32—year—old | :04:16. | :04:19. | |
man has been arrested on suspicion of murder and police are appealing | :04:19. | :04:23. | |
for anyone with any information to get in touch with them. It's | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
believed the man and woman were known to each other. | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
Detectives investigating the death of Durham solicitor Peter Maine are | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
revisiting the spot where he was found, exactly two weeks after his | :04:31. | :04:36. | |
death, to try to trace witnesses. Mr Maine was found near Maiden Castle | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
sports centre in Durham early on Sunday September first, with stab | :04:39. | :04:44. | |
wounds to his chest. Police are treating his death as suspicious and | :04:44. | :04:47. | |
unexplained. They'll be talking to members of the public at the spot | :04:47. | :04:54. | |
this Sunday. A man's appeared in court this | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
afternoon, charged with the murder of an heiress who went missing eight | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
years ago. Janet Brown had been living near Hexham in | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
Northumberland. Her body has never been found. Our Chief Reporter Chris | :05:03. | :05:11. | |
Stewart has the story. Janet Brown would be 53 now. She was | :05:11. | :05:19. | |
last seen in July 2005. Four years after that, Northumbria Police began | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
a fraud and missing person investigation when a bank reported | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
irregularities in a bank account that had been held by her late | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
parents. Earlier this year, there was an extensive search of land | :05:28. | :05:31. | |
between Allenheads and Allendale in Northumberland. To date, no body has | :05:31. | :05:34. | |
been recovered in the investigation. Today, a 59—year—old man and a | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
51—year—old woman, both of Seaton Delaval in Northumberland, appeared | :05:37. | :05:43. | |
before court. Donald Graham faces a charge of murder, two counts of | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
obtaining money transfer by deception, and 13 counts of fraud. | :05:46. | :06:00. | |
Together, Donald Graham and Elizabeth Todd charged with forgery, | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
conspiracy to commit fraud and perverting the course of drug tarmac | :06:03. | :06:10. | |
justice. They were released on bail and will appear before a court next | :06:10. | :06:12. | |
Tuesday. The Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg | :06:12. | :06:18. | |
says the North East doesn't necessarily need its own minister. | :06:18. | :06:23. | |
Labour MPs believe appointing one would help the region fight its | :06:23. | :06:28. | |
corner in Government. But the Liberal Democrat leader says he is | :06:28. | :06:31. | |
already making sure the North East gets a good deal to boost its | :06:31. | :06:37. | |
economy and create jobs. I can knock heads together and make sure that we | :06:37. | :06:42. | |
are decisions are getting stuck, they are unstuck. That is the way to | :06:42. | :06:48. | |
serve the North East the best, and I am a passionate supporter and | :06:48. | :06:53. | |
admirer of fisheries Dominic region. I hope everything from the city | :06:53. | :07:00. | |
deals and offshore wind farms will over time help the North East | :07:00. | :07:05. | |
recover fully economically. ?NEWLINE And you can hear more of that | :07:05. | :07:09. | |
interview on Sunday Politics at the later time of 1.30pm on BBC One this | :07:09. | :07:16. | |
Sunday. It's claimed an increasing number of | :07:16. | :07:20. | |
children in the North East are going to school without any breakfast. A | :07:20. | :07:23. | |
new report claims a quarter of teachers said they've seen more | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
pupils coming in hungry in the last year, and primary school children | :07:26. | :07:29. | |
are losing eight weeks of their education due to hunger in the | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
classroom. Many schools are holding breakfast clubs to tackle the | :07:32. | :07:35. | |
problem, and Stephanie Cleasby's been to one in Sunderland. | :07:35. | :07:43. | |
Breakfast time. Setting children opt for the day. But according to | :07:43. | :07:48. | |
research, an increasing number of children skipping sexist and | :07:48. | :07:52. | |
teachers say it is having an impact on the ability to learn. More than | :07:52. | :07:57. | |
one quarter of children are coming to school without eating breakfast, | :07:57. | :08:03. | |
and shockingly, it quarter of teachers review children have fallen | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
asleep in class due to hunger. Some students we have had to wake up, and | :08:07. | :08:14. | |
they are drowsy and peeled. —— appeal. They are hungry and not | :08:14. | :08:23. | |
learning. It has an impact on the class. Children coming to school | :08:23. | :08:26. | |
hungry, and it is a large number of children, are losing eight weeks of | :08:26. | :08:36. | |
their education as a result of being hungry. School breakfast clubs like | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
this are one way of filling the food gap. Sexist is subsidised, super £1, | :08:40. | :08:53. | |
children can eat as much they want. We had cereal and chocolate and | :08:53. | :09:02. | |
bread. Do you feel better?Yes, I feel good. I like eating with my | :09:02. | :09:11. | |
friends. Now they are ready to learn. Another positive that has | :09:11. | :09:17. | |
come from less is that hardly any children are no late for class. | :09:17. | :09:24. | |
It's a piece of TV history — the studio set for the children's | :09:24. | :09:32. | |
programme Blue Peter. It was recently put up for auction, and now | :09:32. | :09:35. | |
it's out on display after being bought by one of the region's | :09:35. | :09:38. | |
universities. Here's one Stuart Whincup made earlier. | :09:38. | :09:52. | |
This used to be haunted the world longest—running children's | :09:52. | :09:59. | |
television programme. Blue Peter has been running for 55 years, but when | :09:59. | :10:03. | |
the programme moved from London to Salford, the set was put up for | :10:03. | :10:08. | |
sale. It was bought by the University of Sunderland. I'm left | :10:08. | :10:15. | |
with one question, what about this set? Well, I thought it was a great | :10:15. | :10:21. | |
opportunity to acquire something with real heritage, that all our | :10:21. | :10:34. | |
students recognised. It meant students would be able to utilise | :10:34. | :10:39. | |
it. What has the feedback been like? | :10:39. | :10:44. | |
Really, really positive. It was quite a big risk, and something that | :10:44. | :10:51. | |
universities don't tend to do, but I think we have real leadership in | :10:51. | :10:56. | |
what we do here, and what we wanted to do was create a different | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
environment, and the social media has been amazing. The students have | :11:00. | :11:04. | |
been putting up Facebook and Twitter messages, and the feedback has been | :11:04. | :11:10. | |
amazing. The one question you are left with, is how much did this | :11:10. | :11:16. | |
cost? £2400. The university says this is great value. | :11:16. | :11:33. | |
Plenty more to come in tonight's programme: Jeff's live in Gateshead | :11:33. | :11:36. | |
with two elite athletes preparing for the Great North Run. And we meet | :11:36. | :11:40. | |
another runner — inspired by her dad — who took part in the very first | :11:40. | :11:44. | |
one. Next month sees York stage one of | :11:44. | :11:47. | |
the biggest theatrical productions in the country this year. It's | :11:47. | :11:51. | |
called Blood and Chocolate and is being produced by the same team that | :11:51. | :11:54. | |
put on a successful production of The Railway Children at the Railway | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
Museum. That play featured a real steam train — this one will feature | :11:58. | :12:11. | |
the whole of the city of York. Visit Europe before October, and | :12:12. | :12:16. | |
you're likely to see a lot of this. 200 volunteers are rehearsing their | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
production called blood and she chocolate. Look closely, and you | :12:20. | :12:27. | |
will see the cast are weaving earphones and getting instructions | :12:27. | :12:33. | |
from their director. When it comes to the performance, the audience | :12:33. | :12:38. | |
will wear headphones so they could hear the actors. The show's producer | :12:38. | :12:44. | |
gives a demonstration. Without headphones, you are none the wiser, | :12:45. | :12:52. | |
but you can hear this when you put them on. These people are going to | :12:52. | :12:56. | |
be wearing headphones and looking at people in costume will stop that is | :12:56. | :13:07. | |
the scale we are talking about. For the audience, it is an adventurer, | :13:07. | :13:10. | |
because they have no idea where they are going on what has gone to happen | :13:10. | :13:15. | |
to them. The play has been inspired by the changes in your's chocolate | :13:15. | :13:22. | |
factories. The city and their inhabitants were transformed by it. | :13:22. | :13:26. | |
As the men left to go to the front, the women were moved to doing the | :13:26. | :13:41. | |
heart, the —— hard, industrial work. As the show's trailer promises, it | :13:41. | :13:45. | |
will be the theatrical event of the year. | :13:45. | :13:55. | |
The wait is almost over for the thousands of people preparing to | :13:55. | :13:59. | |
take part in this year's Great North Run. And this year's race will bring | :13:59. | :14:02. | |
back memories for Fleck Ditchburn from Cumbria. He ran in the first | :14:02. | :14:06. | |
Great North Run in 1981. On Sunday, his daughter's running for a cause | :14:06. | :14:09. | |
close to the family's heart. Megan Paterson has been to meet them in | :14:09. | :14:11. | |
Cumbria. Fleck Ditchburn was the man with the | :14:11. | :14:15. | |
arrow, keen to be spotted and raising money for his local church. | :14:15. | :14:24. | |
The first rate North run was exceptional. It is so exhilarating. | :14:24. | :14:30. | |
There are so many people around you during this same event are different | :14:30. | :14:34. | |
charities. Everybody talks to one another, it you can't explain it | :14:34. | :14:41. | |
unless you have done it. I am loving it all again with Gemma, and it's | :14:41. | :14:45. | |
brilliant. Fleck's daughter Gemma is running the Great North Run to raise | :14:45. | :14:48. | |
funds for motor neurone disease, a condition that cost her dad his | :14:48. | :14:54. | |
movement. It has been a roller—coaster for the last four | :14:54. | :14:58. | |
years. There were times we thought we were going to lose him, and if we | :14:58. | :15:03. | |
could stop another family going through that by funding research, | :15:03. | :15:07. | |
that is what we're aiming to do. Gemma's one of 253 runners raising | :15:07. | :15:10. | |
funds for research into the condition at this years event. She's | :15:10. | :15:14. | |
passed on the opportunity to lug the family arrow, opting instead to | :15:14. | :15:17. | |
carry a bit of her dad's determination. Every time I hit the | :15:17. | :15:27. | |
wall, and I am struggling, my dad is there with me, and a fight on. There | :15:27. | :15:34. | |
has been many times when we thought this was it, especially when he | :15:34. | :15:38. | |
spent six months in intensive care. A lot of the doctors had written him | :15:38. | :15:42. | |
off, but he fought and proved everyone wrong. Gemma hopes to run a | :15:42. | :15:47. | |
time nearly as good as her dad's effort back in '81, as well as | :15:47. | :15:51. | |
raising money to help other families fight motor neurone disease in the | :15:51. | :15:56. | |
future. There will be Great North Run | :15:56. | :15:59. | |
updates throughout Sunday on our website, including runners' stories | :15:59. | :16:05. | |
and pictures. BBC Newcastle will be on the start line. Join Alfie Joey | :16:05. | :16:08. | |
and Sue Sweeney from 9am this Sunday. And live coverage on BBC One | :16:08. | :16:14. | |
from 9.30am, presented by Jonathan Edwards. Now, it's time to join | :16:14. | :16:26. | |
Jeff, and he is quite excited, because it is a massive weekend. You | :16:26. | :16:34. | |
might remember a couple of years ago, before the great norms —— Great | :16:34. | :16:41. | |
North Run, the rain was pouring down, and we are small fire when he | :16:41. | :16:45. | |
was going to come and run the Great North Run. It is this year. I | :16:45. | :16:55. | |
managed to catch up with Mo Farah before he disappeared. Welcome back | :16:55. | :17:03. | |
to Tyneside. How was it? It was great. I love running, and the fans | :17:03. | :17:12. | |
get behind you. It is a great event. What a year it has been for you | :17:12. | :17:18. | |
again! Yes, and hopefully I will ended on a high. Did Brendan have | :17:18. | :17:26. | |
two twist your arm to get you to do this? No, I promised him I would do | :17:26. | :17:34. | |
it when here, and it is this your! The Great North Run is a big event, | :17:34. | :17:41. | |
over 56,000 people, so it's one of the biggest races in the world, in | :17:41. | :17:52. | |
terms of half marathons. It's great. I don't want to put pressure on you, | :17:52. | :17:58. | |
but there has been no British winner since Steve Kenyon in 1985! Can you | :17:58. | :18:18. | |
do it? We'll seeC! It should be a good race. I am in this race as | :18:18. | :18:27. | |
well. I don't know how I got this number! How did I end up with 2012? | :18:27. | :18:37. | |
You will finish well ahead of me, well ahead of everyone! Good luck! | :18:37. | :18:47. | |
56,000 people have applied for the chance to run a cross that bridge, | :18:47. | :18:51. | |
and as we said, one of them will be Mo Farah. Brendan, how did you | :18:51. | :18:58. | |
manage to get him to run it? Well, he's always said to me that he will | :18:58. | :19:03. | |
run across that bridge in the Leeds one day, and we'll see no! I'm | :19:03. | :19:12. | |
really pleased that everyone is here, and at the end of the day, is | :19:12. | :19:17. | |
only important that we have a good race. 56,000 people are expected, | :19:17. | :19:27. | |
and we want them to all have a good time will stop including number | :19:27. | :19:32. | |
2012! Yes, number 2012.Can we have some good weather as well? Now, as | :19:32. | :19:41. | |
well as all the Great North events this weekend ,we also have the | :19:41. | :19:43. | |
world's fastest wheelchair race tonight. The 13th Tyne Tunnel 2K | :19:43. | :19:47. | |
sets off at 8.30 in Tyne Tunnel one, which will be closed to traffic. | :19:47. | :19:50. | |
Paralympic champion David Weir will take on last years tunnel and Great | :19:50. | :19:54. | |
North Run winner Josh Cassidy from Canada before they go head—to—head | :19:54. | :20:00. | |
on Sunday. This speeds, I have never hit anything like that in any other | :20:00. | :20:05. | |
race. It is that sort of adrenaline rush and the challenge of the poll | :20:05. | :20:09. | |
claimed that makes it enticing for people to come. Is it scary when you | :20:09. | :20:15. | |
are going at that speed? Oh, definitely. Your brakes don't really | :20:15. | :20:25. | |
do much, so you are at the mercy of, well, things going well. | :20:25. | :20:30. | |
On to football, and after a week's break, the Premier League returns | :20:30. | :20:33. | |
tomorrow, with Newcastle away at Aston Villa, and Mo Farah's | :20:33. | :20:35. | |
favourite team, Arsenal, at the Stadium of Light, where Sunderland | :20:36. | :20:39. | |
could do with a bit of a lift, after losing badly at Crystal Palace last | :20:39. | :20:42. | |
time out. So, who was to blame for that | :20:42. | :20:45. | |
fruitless trip to Selhurst Park? The head coach pointed the finger at | :20:45. | :20:49. | |
himself, but also, in his post—match press conference, at a couple of his | :20:49. | :20:53. | |
players. Overall, though, he says he wasn't as disappointed as most fans | :20:53. | :20:56. | |
and football writers seemed to think. And while the national focus | :20:56. | :21:01. | |
tomorrow will be on the Gunners' new £42 million man, Mesut Ozil, Di | :21:01. | :21:04. | |
Canio is set to give last season's top scorer Steven Fletcher his first | :21:04. | :21:07. | |
start since March, even if he doesn't expect him to last the whole | :21:07. | :21:19. | |
game. It is very difficult to see him as being fit for 95 minutes. But | :21:19. | :21:27. | |
he is fit enough to score a goal, and to score problems for the | :21:27. | :21:31. | |
opponents, and give more belief to our players. Newcastle supporters | :21:31. | :21:35. | |
are wanting to believe manager Allan Pardew when he says their squad can | :21:35. | :21:38. | |
cope with the coming season, despite director of football Joe Kinnear | :21:38. | :21:41. | |
failing to come up with the extra striker the Magpies' boss was hoping | :21:41. | :21:52. | |
for. As much as the media and some of our fans have reacted, I am not | :21:52. | :21:58. | |
so much. I think I have a good side, and with everyone fit and training | :21:58. | :22:04. | |
really well, we're in good shape. It would be nice to get another | :22:04. | :22:11. | |
offensive player, which we didn't manage to do, but we still have a | :22:11. | :22:15. | |
strong team, and I look forward to the next period of games. | :22:15. | :22:19. | |
In the Championship, Tony Mowbray takes his Middlesbrough side to | :22:19. | :22:22. | |
Ipswich, one of his old clubs. And after the sacking of Greg Abbott, | :22:22. | :22:25. | |
caretaker boss Graham Kavanagh will lead Carlisle this weekend. The | :22:25. | :22:28. | |
Blues could get themselves out of the League One relegation zone if | :22:28. | :22:31. | |
they beat fellow strugglers Sheffield United. In League Two, | :22:31. | :22:34. | |
Hartlepool — like Carlisle, looking for their first victory — play | :22:34. | :22:37. | |
Accrington Stanley, the only team below them, while York could move | :22:37. | :22:40. | |
away from the danger zone with a victory over Portsmouth. And you can | :22:40. | :22:43. | |
hear live commentary on all those games on your local BBC Radio | :22:43. | :22:45. | |
station. In rugby union, Newcastle Falcons' | :22:45. | :22:48. | |
centre Tane Tu'ipulotu has been forced to retire from the game | :22:48. | :22:52. | |
because of a knee injury. It's a big blow to Dean Richards' side, who | :22:52. | :22:55. | |
play Sale Sharks in just over an hour. They'll be hoping for better | :22:55. | :22:58. | |
weather in Salford, after losing 21—0 at home to Bath in horrendous | :22:58. | :23:02. | |
conditions at Kingston Park last week. Sale, on the other hand, | :23:02. | :23:06. | |
pulled off the shock win of the weekend. The first game in the | :23:06. | :23:23. | |
season, was a massive one to win. They are going to be up for a it and | :23:23. | :23:27. | |
looking for a good start to the season. We like to move the ball | :23:27. | :23:29. | |
around a bit, and fortunately, the conditions and Freddie did not allow | :23:29. | :23:36. | |
us to do that. The forecast is supposed to be better. | :23:36. | :23:38. | |
In cricket, Chester—le—Street playing Ormskirk at The Ovalor for | :23:38. | :23:42. | |
the right to meet Wimbledon in the final of the National Club T20 had | :23:42. | :23:46. | |
to go to a bowl out after rain stopped play. | :23:46. | :23:55. | |
In the County Championship, leaders Durham reached 257—4 before bad | :23:55. | :23:59. | |
light cut the day short at Derby. And second—placed Yorkshire earned a | :23:59. | :24:02. | |
34—run first innings lead over Sussex, who closed on 48—2. Both | :24:02. | :24:08. | |
those games look like ending in a draw. | :24:08. | :24:18. | |
And after 138 years at the same ground, Burnopfield Cricket Club — | :24:18. | :24:20. | |
where North East legend Colin Milburn grew up — are playing their | :24:20. | :24:24. | |
last home games over the weekend, before moving to a new ground next | :24:24. | :24:27. | |
season. Let's hope the weather holds for them — and for every Great North | :24:27. | :24:37. | |
Runner. I must say, this incoming storm is interfering with our | :24:37. | :24:43. | |
silent. —— sound Well, the weather with Hannah in a moment, but the | :24:43. | :24:46. | |
forecast over the weekend has already put paid to a couple of big | :24:46. | :24:49. | |
events. In Cumbria, the Jennings Rivers | :24:49. | :24:51. | |
Ride, which has around 1000 cyclists, has been postponed. It was | :24:51. | :24:55. | |
due to be held on Sunday, starting in Keswick. And Sunday's Tyne Swim | :24:55. | :24:59. | |
has had to be called off. It's a water—based equivalent of the Great | :24:59. | :25:02. | |
North Run, with around 30 hardy swimmers swimming ten miles along | :25:02. | :25:05. | |
the River Tyne from the Quayside to South Shields, to raise money for | :25:05. | :25:10. | |
the RNLI. Such a shame, but the weather atrocious, sums it up? Yes, | :25:10. | :25:17. | |
for Sunday, a weather warning for Cumbria. First of all, let's take a | :25:17. | :25:22. | |
little look at the weather forecast for an event that the weather will | :25:22. | :25:26. | |
not spoil. Harrogate Flower Show is on | :25:26. | :25:37. | |
Saturday, and will be wet, but coverage on Harvest 2013. Onto the | :25:37. | :25:44. | |
forecast for the weekend, we are expecting it to be wet and windy on | :25:44. | :25:48. | |
Sunday, with the first of the autumn deals. A spell of rain will clear in | :25:48. | :25:55. | |
the south of the region, and most spots will be dry with some clear | :25:55. | :26:03. | |
spells by Dawn, temperatures low around seven degrees. It is looking | :26:03. | :26:09. | |
good for the mini and Junior runs tomorrow. Lovely blue skies and | :26:09. | :26:16. | |
Cumbria through Saturday. Temperatures tomorrow probably no | :26:16. | :26:25. | |
higher than around 30 to 15 Celsius. —— 13 to 15 Celsius. Turning | :26:25. | :26:32. | |
westwards, it is likely Cumbria will have the best on Saturday and the | :26:32. | :26:38. | |
worst on Sunday. The forecast for those great North events, the city | :26:38. | :26:45. | |
games taking place on the Newcastle Gateshead quayside. Cool and all | :26:45. | :26:51. | |
coverage will be on BBC One and the BBC website. The big picture shows | :26:51. | :26:57. | |
high pressure, but things go downhill through Sunday, with a | :26:57. | :27:04. | |
squeeze on the isobars is this complex area shows us a windy end to | :27:04. | :27:10. | |
the weekend. For the Great North Run, it will rain heavily as the | :27:10. | :27:17. | |
runners set off, and the winds will be strong by 12pm. It is a tailwind, | :27:17. | :27:24. | |
and by the end of the afternoon, when most people will be starting to | :27:24. | :27:28. | |
finish, it should be still wet and windy, and it is wettest and Wendy | :27:28. | :27:34. | |
are set across Cumbria. A weather warning from 3pm on Sunday | :27:34. | :27:41. | |
afternoon. Look at the BBC website for more details. That's it from us | :27:41. | :27:46. | |
tonight. Good night. | :27:46. | :27:46. |
