:01:07. > :01:08.North Yorkshire`based jockey who's beaten the odds to recover

:01:09. > :01:11.from life`threatening injuries ` but First tonight,

:01:12. > :01:26.a coroner has criticised the Ministry of Defence for

:01:27. > :01:30.a series of failures that led to the Private Dean Hutchinson from

:01:31. > :01:34.Spennymoor died in a fire which engulfed his tent as he slept at

:01:35. > :01:40.Camp Bastion in Afghanistan in 2011. His family has also hit out `

:01:41. > :01:57.accusing the army of incompetence. He was just 23. A driver with seven

:01:58. > :02:02.years' service. Dean Hutchinson was killed when fire swept through a

:02:03. > :02:07.logistical centre at Camp Bastion in Helmand province in the early hours

:02:08. > :02:13.of fibrillar 40s, 2011. He and the victim, 28`year`old Private Rob

:02:14. > :02:17.Wood, were sleeping in a tented office so they could respond more

:02:18. > :02:21.quickly when supplies arrived. The inquest heard the fire started

:02:22. > :02:24.because of an electrical fault. The two men were eventually were

:02:25. > :02:27.identified by their dental records. After a ten day inquest the

:02:28. > :02:33.Wiltshire and Swindon coroner recorded a narrative conclusion and

:02:34. > :02:37.listed eight areas where he said the ministry of defence was guilty of

:02:38. > :02:42.serious health and safety failures. David Ridley said the smoke detector

:02:43. > :02:46.in the tent was not in working order at the time of the fire. He found

:02:47. > :02:52.that the tent in which the men were sleeping only had one effected ``

:02:53. > :02:55.effective exit. Dean was a soldier and we will always be immensely

:02:56. > :03:00.proud of him and the fact he served his country. But we feel he should

:03:01. > :03:06.never have lost his life in the way that he did out there in

:03:07. > :03:13.Afghanistan. We are pleased that the coroner's conclusion reflects the

:03:14. > :03:19.Army's incompetence in not carrying out the correct procedures to ensure

:03:20. > :03:23.Dean's safety. Our thoughts remain with the families and friends of

:03:24. > :03:28.Private Robert Wood and Private Dean Hutchinson at this difficult time.

:03:29. > :03:33.Their loss continues to be felt within the regiments and within the

:03:34. > :03:40.wider community. Both men were widely dedicated and professional

:03:41. > :03:45.sand proud to serve their country. `` highly dedicated. The Ministry of

:03:46. > :03:54.Defence has 56 days to respond to the coroner in writing.

:03:55. > :03:56.He made a simple mistake on his visa application.

:03:57. > :04:00.But it means Jason Nish is now facing deportation to his native

:04:01. > :04:03.South Africa, even though he's lived here for the last ten years.

:04:04. > :04:06.Jason ` a young father from Carlisle fears he'll have to leave

:04:07. > :04:09.his partner and children behind with no guarantee that he'll

:04:10. > :04:12.In his own words`words "heartbreaking"

:04:13. > :04:15.Jason is now hoping an appeal against the decision

:04:16. > :04:19.of the Home Office to deport him, will find in his favour.

:04:20. > :04:23.Jason Nish has lived and worked in Carlisle for ten years

:04:24. > :04:26.since arriving with his family ` some of whom are originally

:04:27. > :04:32.But he made a simple mistake on his visa application.

:04:33. > :04:37.I incorrectly ticked a box which was are you from a majority

:04:38. > :04:45.I assumed I was, because I spoke English, went to school but it's not

:04:46. > :04:49.Although English is his only language he's supposed to

:04:50. > :04:55.For that he faces being taken back to a country he last saw

:04:56. > :04:58.as a child and where he has no family or friends.

:04:59. > :05:06.I have settled down, got a partner, hopefully one day get married.

:05:07. > :05:13.I might have to leave the country, leave the kids.

:05:14. > :05:15.There's no guarantee I'll be able to come back.

:05:16. > :05:20.I was at work when I got a message off him, ring me.

:05:21. > :05:22.I thought it was something with the children.

:05:23. > :05:25.When he told me I could not believe it.

:05:26. > :05:30.The couple must now rely on just one income, putting them

:05:31. > :05:40.Technically if I was working I would be working here illegally.

:05:41. > :05:51.They have helped us out so much with the situation, all the legal,

:05:52. > :06:04.Since his plight became public, friends family

:06:05. > :06:07.and even strangers have been rallying round, offering support.

:06:08. > :06:10.It is not just the prospect of having his family forcibly

:06:11. > :06:13.broken apart that annoys Jason and his partner, but the fact that

:06:14. > :06:17.should his appeal fail he'll be sent back to a country he last saw 15

:06:18. > :06:24.The couple are now hoping that the thousands of people who are

:06:25. > :06:28.signing the petition to prevent his deportation will be successful.

:06:29. > :06:30.Today is the deadline for Jason's appeal.

:06:31. > :06:39.It will be six weeks before he finds out the answer.

:06:40. > :06:46.Mark McAlindon is in our Carlisle newsroom. The Home Office deals with

:06:47. > :06:50.these cases. If it is a mistake, what have they had to say about it?

:06:51. > :06:57.I will explain, Jason Nish made this mistake because he grew up in Cape

:06:58. > :07:00.Town as a child, went to an image speaking school and in the

:07:01. > :07:04.Parliament of South Africa, English is the language used, which is why

:07:05. > :07:08.he thought English was the language used. The Home Office says our

:07:09. > :07:10.immigration rules clearly state that individuals applying for

:07:11. > :07:14.indefinitely to remain, as Mr Nish is, who are not from

:07:15. > :07:17.English`speaking countries, must provide evidence of having an

:07:18. > :07:21.approved English language qualification. That, it says, is

:07:22. > :07:25.fair to applicants and the wider public. Mr Nish's application was

:07:26. > :07:30.refused, they say, because he failed to provide evidence he had passed a

:07:31. > :07:33.language qualification. He has the right to appeal the decision. We

:07:34. > :07:37.should know the outcome of the appeal in six weeks. Once we have

:07:38. > :07:47.the news we will bring it to you. Thanks very much.

:07:48. > :07:53.People across the north`east and Cumbria have been going to the polls

:07:54. > :07:56.today, in the European elections and some councils have been holding

:07:57. > :08:05.elections. Richard Moss joins us from one of those councils. .

:08:06. > :08:07.Hello, this is the centre of Carlisle. Forthcoming attractions

:08:08. > :08:14.include the Moscow Philemon Ekstrand medium. I have the hot ticket, which

:08:15. > 0:01:20is when votes are counted at 10pm for the Carlisle City Council

0:01:21 > 1:20:53elections. Voting has been taking place across the region. Some hardy

1:20:54 > 1:20:53souls braving the spring showers in North Tyneside, but also elections

1:20:54 > 1:20:53for councils in South Lakeland, Newcastle and Gateshead and South

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Tyneside, Sunderland, Hartlepool and in Harrogate in North Yorkshire. In

1:20:54 > 1:20:53addition, the European elections have been taking place across the

1:20:54 > 1:20:53region. Eight seats up for grabs in the north`west. Six in Yorkshire and

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Humber. Three in the north`east. There is time to cast your vote.

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Polls close at 10pm. If you are interested in the results, or you

1:20:54 > 1:20:53cannot sleep, then there is an election results programme at

1:20:54 > 1:20:5311:35pm. David Dimbleby with the team in London and I will be hearing

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Carlisle, bringing you a regional perspective on the results and

1:20:54 > 1:20:53picking them over with a panel politicians. Not every council is

1:20:54 > 1:20:53counting this evening. Tomorrow, there will be counts in places like

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Newcastle and Gateshead. The European count does not begin until

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Sunday, when the poles have closed across the continent. `` the polls

1:20:54 > 1:20:53have closed across the continent. You might expect your doctor to

1:20:54 > 1:20:53prescribe you pills or potions, but what about a set of new windows, or

1:20:54 > 1:20:53a boiler? Patients in Sunderland with conditions made worse by the

1:20:54 > 1:20:53cold are being offered home improvements. All on the NHS. The

1:20:54 > 1:20:53scheme is thought to be the first of its kind in Britain. Here is our

1:20:54 > 1:20:53correspondent, Mark Denton. The Harris family from Sunderland,

1:20:54 > 1:20:53both have severe chest conditions and when winter hits it makes

1:20:54 > 1:20:53matters worse. I have an accumulation of illnesses. Even a

1:20:54 > 1:20:53slight drop would mean I would have to put extra clothing on. But the

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Harris family has a new boiler, windows and doors to help with their

1:20:54 > 1:20:53health problems. Home improvements prescribed by the NHS. The health

1:20:54 > 1:20:53service paid the bill. The housing company carried out the work. If we

1:20:54 > 1:20:53are onto something here, imagine the difference that could make. People

1:20:54 > 1:20:53are struggling with energy bills, finding it ethical. If we can prove

1:20:54 > 1:20:53there is a link between health and warmer homes we can make a bigger

1:20:54 > 1:20:53difference to a bigger group of people. The boiler switches off when

1:20:54 > 1:20:53it gets to a certain heat, so you are not using electricity. I am

1:20:54 > 1:20:53hoping that he doesn't have to go into hospital this Christmas because

1:20:54 > 1:20:53once the bad weather starts he gets these infections, which goes

1:20:54 > 1:20:53straight to his kidney. He is hospitalised. Here is the thing. The

1:20:54 > 1:20:53fewer hospital visits that Herbie makes, the better for the NHS as

1:20:54 > 1:20:53well because every single admission costs around ?2500, compared to a

1:20:54 > 1:20:53one`off cost of putting in a new boiler and windows in a house like

1:20:54 > 1:20:53this of ?5,000. It kind of makes sense intuitively that if you stop

1:20:54 > 1:20:53people getting a bill there is less pressure on hospital services.

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Haven't you opened the floodgates? Would you get people asking for

1:20:54 > 1:20:53double garages, new wallpaper in their front room, on the NHS because

1:20:54 > 1:20:53they say will improve their health? We need to evaluate this to

1:20:54 > 1:20:53understand what we get out of it, but we need to have tight criteria.

1:20:54 > 1:20:53We will make best use of taxpayers' money. The pilot project will be

1:20:54 > 1:20:53assessed next year. It's `` if successful it could be a model for

1:20:54 > 1:20:53the future. There are something

1:20:54 > 1:20:53like 42,000 people with dementia That figure's predicted to rise

1:20:54 > 1:20:53to more than 50,000 by 2021. There's no cure, of course,

1:20:54 > 1:20:53but there are ways of delaying the onset ` and helping

1:20:54 > 1:20:53those with the early stages of the disease to remain living

1:20:54 > 1:20:53at home and lead fulfilling lives. Five months ago, the Alzheimer's

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Society in South Tyneside Now they've taken these group

1:20:54 > 1:20:53singalongs into one Here ` in their own words ` are

1:20:54 > 1:20:53some of those taking part, on why # Bless them all, the long

1:20:54 > 1:20:53and the short and the tall #. Music is a great therapy

1:20:54 > 1:20:53for everybody in life. It's music they know

1:20:54 > 1:20:53from their childhood, because people with memory loss

1:20:54 > 1:20:53regress back to their childhood. So it is songs their mums would have

1:20:54 > 1:20:53sung to them, or that they would We are all responding to music

1:20:54 > 1:20:53in very different ways. Alzheimer's which lands

1:20:54 > 1:20:53on you without any expectation, it We have struggled with it over

1:20:54 > 1:20:53the last seven years. Events

1:20:54 > 1:20:53like this are just really terrific. She seems to be enjoying life

1:20:54 > 1:20:53a lot better now. It is helping with

1:20:54 > 1:20:53the coordination and memory The campaign is don't bottle it up,

1:20:54 > 1:20:53come and talk to us, go and talk to people if you are

1:20:54 > 1:20:53worried about your memory. That's all you need

1:20:54 > 1:20:53them to say to you. A lovely idea. Still to come,

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Thursday's sport. Plus we meet youngsters from a school in

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Newcastle who are getting the chance to perform Shakespeare in the West

1:20:54 > 1:20:53End. Tomorrow is not the brightest of days, but it should pick up as we

1:20:54 > 1:20:53had through the bank holiday weekend. I will be here later with

1:20:54 > 1:20:53the full forecast. We have been telling you about this.

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Pupils from a special School in Newcastle are to perform Shakespeare

1:20:54 > 1:20:53in the West End. There will be representing the north`east onstage

1:20:54 > 1:20:53alongside actress Jenny Agutter and King Lear star Simon Russell`Beale.

1:20:54 > 1:20:53They are patrons of the Shakespeare Schools Festival. It gives young

1:20:54 > 1:20:53people the chance to perform his works in professional theatres. His

1:20:54 > 1:20:53art arts reporter, Sharuna Sagar. Midsummer nights dream as you've

1:20:54 > 1:20:53never seen it before. These children from Hadrian School in Newcastle

1:20:54 > 1:20:53have proved that severe learning difficulties are no barrier to the

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Bard. What is the story of midsummer nights's dream? It is about falling

1:20:54 > 1:20:53in love. Oh, and which part do you play? Puck. Are you like that

1:20:54 > 1:20:53yourself? Yes, and I do fairy dancing. And you fight for the

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Indian? You have learned your lines, haven't you? Yes. This is the first

1:20:54 > 1:20:53time the special needs primary school has attempted so challenging.

1:20:54 > 1:20:53We wanted to take on a dramatic piece, classical Shakespearian work,

1:20:54 > 1:20:53and see if we could put our twist on it and give us and the children a

1:20:54 > 1:20:53challenge. To concentrate for any length of time is hard for them. To

1:20:54 > 1:20:53understand the nuances of the text, it is quite subtle, is a big ask. In

1:20:54 > 1:20:53terms of getting them to rise to the challenge, they have done amazingly

1:20:54 > 1:20:53well. They moved the audience to rise to their feet and applaud when

1:20:54 > 1:20:53they first perform their interpretation at the Northern stage

1:20:54 > 1:20:53as part of the Shakespeare Schools Festival last autumn. They have now

1:20:54 > 1:20:53been chosen with four other schools out of 1000 across the country to

1:20:54 > 1:20:53highlight the use charity's work. I was bowled away by what they were

1:20:54 > 1:20:53able to do to an audience. Halfway through their show people started

1:20:54 > 1:20:53giving a standing ovation because they absolutely understand the

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Shakespeare play they are putting on and they perform it and to tell the

1:20:54 > 1:20:53story with such imagination, such magic, such charm. They are

1:20:54 > 1:20:53wonderful group of pupils and we are delighted to show Kate `` showcase

1:20:54 > 1:20:53them as part of the gala. Their abridged version will open and close

1:20:54 > 1:20:53on at the Lyric Theatre on London's Shaftesbury Avenue. A

1:20:54 > 1:20:53once`in`a`lifetime chance for these young thespians to tread those

1:20:54 > 1:20:53hallowed boards. Fantastic! Catch them while you can.

1:20:54 > 1:20:53They were given their first big break on screen the teenage drama I

1:20:54 > 1:20:53could rove, Ant and Dec went on to become television's high`flyers as

1:20:54 > 1:20:53award`winning presenters. They received their latest gong at the

1:20:54 > 1:20:53BAFTAs for Saturday night takeaway. They have revealed they once tried

1:20:54 > 1:20:53to buy the building where Byker Grove was filmed. Their dream was to

1:20:54 > 1:20:53turn it into a performing arts academy to help other youngsters

1:20:54 > 1:20:53follow in their footsteps. Julie Smith reports.

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Come out here, hang off `` hang around with children from the TV. It

1:20:54 > 1:20:53is such a good night. It does not get better than this. The latest

1:20:54 > 1:20:53triumph for high`flying have Ant and Dec. Ant and Dec's Saturday Night

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Takeaway. In television careers spanning 25 years, they took away

1:20:54 > 1:20:53two BAFTAs. Best entertainment programme and entertainment

1:20:54 > 1:20:53performance for their show, Saturday Night Takeaway. We do it because we

1:20:54 > 1:20:53love it. I am so chuffed that we have got it because everybody put so

1:20:54 > 1:20:53much into it. A special night for a special friendship. Well done. We

1:20:54 > 1:20:53did all right, didn't we? Thank you so much. Thank you. And that

1:20:54 > 1:20:53friendship began here, on the set of the BBC children's drama Byker

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Grove, in 1990, where they played the characters PJ and Duncan. This

1:20:54 > 1:20:53is where the drama was filmed. Ant and Dec have just revealed that a

1:20:54 > 1:20:53few years ago they tried to buy the building to turn into a performing

1:20:54 > 1:20:53arts college. But their bid was rejected. We always think that if us

1:20:54 > 1:20:53two can do it, two lads from the north`east, from Newcastle, then

1:20:54 > 1:20:53there are lots more kids out there who can do it. We were very lucky.

1:20:54 > 1:20:53We were given the opportunity at the age of 13. We had parts in Byker

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Grove. It started is out. We came from very ordinary backgrounds here

1:20:54 > 1:20:53in the north`east. We were not show business families. We were not into

1:20:54 > 1:20:53all of that. But we got an opportunity. At some point we would

1:20:54 > 1:20:53like to give the opportunity to other people in the north`east. If

1:20:54 > 1:20:53we can do it, I am sure a lot of other people can as well. But it

1:20:54 > 1:20:53could be awhile before the pair their ambition. We will have to do

1:20:54 > 1:20:53it at a point where we can dedicate time to it. We could not do it now.

1:20:54 > 1:20:53You want to give 100% to it and do it right. We will definitely keep

1:20:54 > 1:20:53looking at the idea for the future. It is an ambition of hours, so watch

1:20:54 > 1:20:53this space. Great guys, aren't they? Fantastic.

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Let's hope they do it. Let's hope England win the World Cup! That is

1:20:54 > 1:20:53probably a bit far`fetched! But good news for the youngsters.

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Yes, they are leading the way. The future is looking bright for

1:20:54 > 1:20:53England. A couple of young players from the north`east helped the under

1:20:54 > 1:20:5317 to beat the Netherlands 4`1 on penalties to we `` to win the

1:20:54 > 1:20:53European championship for the second time. Freddie Woodman, son of the

1:20:54 > 1:20:53magpies' coach Andy, made a crucial save after the game went to

1:20:54 > 1:20:53penalties. Cameron Cook calmly found the back of the net for England, and

1:20:54 > 1:20:53did not miss a single penalty `` Callum Cooke. Perhaps the seniors

1:20:54 > 1:20:53can take tips from them! Middlesbrough swimmer Aimee Willmott

1:20:54 > 1:20:53captained team England to victory in the Battle of SwimBritain. It was a

1:20:54 > 1:20:53friendly event against Scotland and team Wales. It included

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Hartlepool's Jemma Lowe, head of the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. Both

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Olympians, who normally compete for Team GB, are looking forward to the

1:20:54 > 1:20:53summer. Obviously normally we do train

1:20:54 > 1:20:53as a team and race together as Great Britain so at

1:20:54 > 1:20:53the Commonwealth, we are separated. It's good to race each other

1:20:54 > 1:20:53rather than with each other. It's good to start that early

1:20:54 > 1:20:53and get the rivalry and I've got Welsh family to

1:20:54 > 1:20:53so it's great to represent them once The athletes come together in the

1:20:54 > 1:20:53village and stay in the same place. I got a bronze medal

1:20:54 > 1:20:53at the last Commonwealth Games, so it will be nice to do it again,

1:20:54 > 1:20:53maybe at the two events I'm doing. Good luck to them both. It is the

1:20:54 > 1:20:53day he remembers absolutely nothing about. The day in July last year,

1:20:54 > 1:20:53when jockey Ryan Toomey suffered life`threatening head injuries after

1:20:54 > 1:20:53being thrown off his horse during a race in Scotland. Now ten months on

1:20:54 > 1:20:53and after an amazing recovery against all the odds, he has `` he

1:20:54 > 1:20:53is weeks away from finding out if he will be allowed to resume his jump

1:20:54 > 1:20:53racing career. Mark Tulip has been to meet him. Irish jockey Brian

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Toomey, based at Carlton`in`Cleveland near

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Stokesley, spent six months in hospitals in Scotland and

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Middlesbrough after the horrific fall, which he does occasionally

1:20:54 > 1:20:53watch on his mobile phone. It was not expected to survive. Doctors and

1:20:54 > 1:20:53surgeons did not think I will pull through. I have had friends who

1:20:54 > 1:20:53after it happened, they said to me, it was no hope. I have survived it.

1:20:54 > 1:20:53I am quite happy. It was good to firm ground in racing terms. I did

1:20:54 > 1:20:53not break anything. My brain swelled up so much. They removed part of my

1:20:54 > 1:20:53school to allow it to swell. I would prefer to have broken an arm, but

1:20:54 > 1:20:53never mind! Brian cannot thank the medical teams, family, friends and

1:20:54 > 1:20:53racing community enough for their support. Well`wishers included Sir

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Alex Ferguson. This July, will the British horse racing Authority give

1:20:54 > 1:20:53him his licence to race again? After a head or break injury you have to

1:20:54 > 1:20:53find out after a year. I have 43 more days to find out. I will have

1:20:54 > 1:20:53been to doctors and had MRI scans, my doctor and surgeon are confident

1:20:54 > 1:20:53I can get back to it but unfortunately it is not the

1:20:54 > 1:20:53decision. It has to be done through the racehorses authority. It will be

1:20:54 > 1:20:53tricky. If you are jockey and win a race, it is unbelievable. It is some

1:20:54 > 1:20:53feeling. There will be thousands of people watching, loads of people

1:20:54 > 1:20:53wishing me well and congratulating you, it is a brilliant game to be

1:20:54 > 1:20:53in. Brian, 25, has completed a host of courses in claims he can't resume

1:20:54 > 1:20:53his career. He has even bought his own racehorse and would like to be a

1:20:54 > 1:20:53trainer one day. What has he taken from this life changing experience?

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Life has to go on. It makes me realise it does put things into

1:20:54 > 1:20:53perspective. It made me realise what a good life I had and I did not

1:20:54 > 1:20:53appreciated enough. It wakes you up a little bit.

1:20:54 > 1:20:53All the best to Brian, let's hope he gets the news he wants. Cricket,

1:20:54 > 1:20:53rain in the West Country was not enough to help Durham salvage a draw

1:20:54 > 1:20:53from the County championship game against Somerset at Taunton. A

1:20:54 > 1:20:53century from Marcus Trescothick helped the home side reached their

1:20:54 > 1:20:53target with seven wickets to spare. There is rain everywhere, not just

1:20:54 > 1:20:53the West Country. Temperature struggled. Low teens was

1:20:54 > 1:20:53as much as most of us got temperature wise. Tomorrow, a

1:20:54 > 1:20:53similar sort of day in some ways. It will be on the cool side thanks to a

1:20:54 > 1:20:53north`easterly wind. A lot of cloud around. Some rain. It will be

1:20:54 > 1:20:53intermittent, showery outbreaks for many others. Still some patchy rain

1:20:54 > 1:20:53around as we head into this evening. Some heavy bursts for parts of North

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Yorkshire. Largely speaking a cloudy, dry picture through the

1:20:54 > 1:20:53night. Some more showers get their act together for North Yorkshire

1:20:54 > 1:20:53later in the night. Temperature is no lower than seven Celsius. We keep

1:20:54 > 1:20:53the North to north`easterly breeze. Tomorrow morning a fairly cloudy

1:20:54 > 1:20:53start. Not too many breaks in the cloud tomorrow. Not much in the way

1:20:54 > 1:20:53of brightness. Showery outbreaks of rain spreading through the day. Most

1:20:54 > 1:20:53of us will see rain at times. The showers more frequent east of the

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Pennines. Cumbria has the best of the dryer interludes. Even there,

1:20:54 > 1:20:53not a lot in the way of brightness. You may hit 15 Celsius in Malton

1:20:54 > 1:20:53tomorrow afternoon. For most places, a couple of degrees of that,

1:20:54 > 1:20:53typically low teens because the wind again comes from the cool

1:20:54 > 1:20:53north`easterly direction. This flabby area of low pressure to the

1:20:54 > 1:20:53South dominates the weather as we head into the bank holiday weekend.

1:20:54 > 1:20:53It starts to fill the low`pressure, as we head towards the bank holiday

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Monday. Slowly improving picture as we had through Saturday, Sunday and

1:20:54 > 1:20:53into bank holiday Monday itself. For Cumbria over the next few days,

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Saturday, a fair amount of cloud. Showery outbreaks of rain. Sunday

1:20:54 > 1:20:53will not be bone dry, but temperatures creeping up as we head

1:20:54 > 1:20:53towards bank holiday Monday. We should have dryer, brighter

1:20:54 > 1:20:53weather, albeit with the rest of the odd `` the risk of an odd shower.

1:20:54 > 1:20:53For the north`east, similar. Cloud around on Saturday, rain at times.

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Showers less frequent as we head into Sunday. Temperatures creeping

1:20:54 > 1:20:53into the high teens as we head into the Bank Holiday itself. It should

1:20:54 > 1:20:53be a bit drier. That is the way the weather is looking for the next few

1:20:54 > 1:20:53days. We will keep you up`to`date on your BBC local radio station.

1:20:54 > 1:20:53Thanks for watching. We have an election update at 10:25pm. If you

1:20:54 > 1:20:53are in bed by then, we will see you at 6:30am tomorrow. Goodbye.
