We're talking about fan ownership of football clubs | :00:45. | :00:46. | |
and the team that just can't stop winning trophies has unveiled | :00:47. | :00:49. | |
A lorry driver who drove his tipper truck towards police cars | :00:50. | :00:59. | |
and put his own colleagues in danger has been jailed for six months. | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
Patrick Denman, who's 36 and from Ashington | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
in Northumberland, led police on a 12-mile journey | :01:07. | :01:11. | |
around Cramlington before he was eventually stopped. | :01:12. | :01:12. | |
Dramatic police helicopter pictures of the event were captured | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
Gerry Jackson is live for us at Newcastle Crown Court. | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
Patrick Denman wept in the dock today as the judge asked what she | :01:19. | :01:32. | |
said was the shortest sentence she could. After a row with his boss | :01:33. | :01:37. | |
over wages a couple of months ago, Patrick Denman quit and effectively | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
stalled as regular truck and led the police on a lumbering but | :01:42. | :01:44. | |
potentially lethal journey. The prosecution alleged he was going to | :01:45. | :01:48. | |
drive the vehicle into the home of his ex-wife. He said that wasn't | :01:49. | :01:55. | |
true, but today waylaid and said it was no proof of that, she said she | :01:56. | :01:58. | |
believed one of the prosecution's version than his. | :01:59. | :02:01. | |
Morning rush hour and the man behind the wheel is that the sexual Patrick | :02:02. | :02:05. | |
Denman will stop in his own words, in the middle of a nervous breakdown | :02:06. | :02:15. | |
-- 36-year-old Patrick Denman. He had resigned but then jumped into | :02:16. | :02:19. | |
his cab and drove out of the yard. His boss and colleagues tried to | :02:20. | :02:22. | |
stop him but were forced to jump aside. That was just the start will | :02:23. | :02:28. | |
stop tracked by a police helicopter, he's seen driving erratically | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
towards the town centre. Here, he goes across the central reservation, | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
with nurses and drive the wrong way back up the carriageway, | :02:37. | :02:39. | |
deliberately swerving towards a police car. After driving through a | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
red light, he eventually grinds to a halt in a muddy patch of grass, just | :02:44. | :02:49. | |
200 metres from the home of his ex-wife. In court today, he said his | :02:50. | :02:54. | |
intention had been to escape, but the Crown portage to his acrimonious | :02:55. | :03:01. | |
relationship with the former wife who he admitted he hated -- the | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
Crown pointed to it. The judge said, he decided to go out with a bang and | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
crash into her house. No, said Patrick Denman, I did want to hurt | :03:12. | :03:14. | |
anyone, I wanted to go to work and go home. He had already pleaded | :03:15. | :03:21. | |
guilty to aggravated vehicle taking and dangerous driving. Today, | :03:22. | :03:24. | |
despite his remorse, Judge Amanda Rippon said there was only one | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
appropriate sentence. She told him, I had no doubt Google Duke of | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
Edinburgh tending to harass and intimidate you ex-wife. As you said, | :03:32. | :03:37. | |
you hated her, making you all the more dangerous behind the wheel of a | :03:38. | :03:46. | |
vehicle that size. He was given a six-month sentence. The judge said | :03:47. | :03:48. | |
he will serve half that with the rest on licence. He was banned from | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
driving and given a five-year restraining order from contacting or | :03:53. | :03:56. | |
going near his former wife. A man's been arrested | :03:57. | :04:04. | |
in connection with a death Emergency services were called | :04:05. | :04:06. | |
to Joan Street in the Benwell area of the city early this morning, | :04:07. | :04:12. | |
after reports that two One was pronounced dead | :04:13. | :04:14. | |
at the scene, a second Stuart Whincup's live | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
for us at the scene. Within the last few minutes, the | :04:19. | :04:30. | |
cord and has been taken down on this street and the streets around and | :04:31. | :04:33. | |
the friendly tent has been taken away. There is still quite a big | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
police presence here and the officers are still going | :04:38. | :04:39. | |
door-to-door speaking to neighbours to see if they have seen anything | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
that happened last night on in the early hours. What we know is that | :04:45. | :04:47. | |
the emergency services were called just before 5:30am and that came | :04:48. | :04:52. | |
from another of the public who was walking along the street and became | :04:53. | :04:57. | |
concerned about the welfare of two men. When paramedics arrived, they | :04:58. | :05:01. | |
found one man who was dead at the scene, another man who was | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
unconscious. At this stage, they are treating the death as unexplained. | :05:07. | :05:10. | |
The second man was taken to hospital and is a stable condition and police | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
are appealing to with information to get in touch. Northumbria police | :05:16. | :05:18. | |
said it had arrested a 29-year-old man in connection with this incident | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
and that it's inquiries are continuing and that over the next | :05:23. | :05:24. | |
few days it has promised regular patrols around here in an attempt to | :05:25. | :05:26. | |
reassure people living here. 12 people have been arrested | :05:27. | :05:30. | |

told party supporters in York this afternoon that schools are facing | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
a financial squeeze. Mr Corbyn's visit came only a day | :05:49. | :05:50. | |
after Prime Minister Theresa May addressed Tory activists | :05:51. | :05:56. | |
in the city. The York Central constituency has | :05:57. | :05:58. | |
a Labour majority of 6,000. Mr Corbyn was speaking after Labour | :05:59. | :06:01. | |
unveiled proposals to protect school This is the 21st-century | :06:02. | :06:03. | |
in the sixth richest Should our schools be | :06:04. | :06:10. | |
going through a funding crisis or should we be | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
supporting our schools, our teachers, our teaching | :06:16. | :06:17. | |
assistants and the whole team that An urgent call has gone out for more | :06:18. | :06:20. | |
volunteers to help young people facing homelessness | :06:21. | :06:31. | |
in the Harrogate area. The charity Safe And Sound Homes - | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
or Sash - is looking for people to host 16 to 25-year-olds who find | :06:35. | :06:37. | |
themselves without a permanent One woman in the town has helped | :06:38. | :06:40. | |
more than 50 young people, At 17, Harry suddenly found his life | :06:41. | :06:55. | |
turned upside down after a series of events meant he could no longer live | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
with his mum and dad. Now thanks to a network of killing volunteers, | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
charity workers on the county council, he's living independently. | :07:03. | :07:07. | |
If he was still here they would have stayed at my dads but he moved to | :07:08. | :07:12. | |
Spain swear was at my mum's and everything ended up in arguments. It | :07:13. | :07:18. | |
was one time too many. Most of the areas be working, we have coverage | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
but Harrogate is a particular area where we really could do with some | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
more people to come forward. 80% of the people don't know whether -- | :07:26. | :07:30. | |
where they're going to sleep on the Napier referred to it means they | :07:31. | :07:34. | |
could be end up sleeping rough -- it means they could end up sleeping | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
rough and that brings up more problems. The other alternative is | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
you can find an alternative future and that's why it makes such a big | :07:44. | :07:46. | |
difference. Yvonne is one volunteer making a big difference, having | :07:47. | :07:53. | |
given 50 young people a roof over their heads. A young man has | :07:54. | :07:59. | |
sustained with me for three weeks and she put a card my door which was | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
very nice saying how much he appreciated the space he had been | :08:04. | :08:13. | |
able to get himself together. I just wanted to allow my sincere gratitude | :08:14. | :08:16. | |
for allowing me into your home. He invited me including a rather | :08:17. | :08:19. | |
difficult time in my life. I wish you and your family a kind and | :08:20. | :08:23. | |
prosperous life in the years ahead. People like you deserve it. the | :08:24. | :08:29. | |
future for me now is a lot better than it was. -- the future. Doing my | :08:30. | :08:36. | |
college staff, hopefully next year I go to uni to study ceramics at | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
Sunderland University. It's helped around 16,000 people | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
since it started flying through our skies in 2002 | :08:45. | :08:47. | |
and its three helicopters make sure casualties are never more | :08:48. | :08:50. | |
than a 15-minute flight The Great North Air Ambulance has | :08:51. | :08:52. | |
reached its 15th year as an independent charity, | :08:53. | :08:57. | |
and today former patients met crew A familiar sight in our skies | :08:58. | :09:00. | |
for the last 15 years, getting casualties to hospital | :09:01. | :09:11. | |
quickly and increasing Something Scarlet and her | :09:12. | :09:13. | |
mum fully understand. Scarlet first met the air ambulance | :09:14. | :09:16. | |
team when she was just 18 months old, she'd stopped breathing | :09:17. | :09:19. | |
while on holiday in Bamburgh Everyone said how lucky she is to be | :09:20. | :09:21. | |
here and I do believe if it wasn't for the job that they do, | :09:22. | :09:29. | |
she wouldn't be here today, cos we couldn't have got | :09:30. | :09:31. | |
to the hospital as quick Since the charity began | :09:32. | :09:34. | |
the treatment the paramedics and on board doctors can offer has | :09:35. | :09:38. | |
progressed year on year, allowing them to deal | :09:39. | :09:42. | |
with the most severe trauma. Mark was hit by a car after a night | :09:43. | :09:47. | |
out in Bishop Auckland, he suffered a severe brain | :09:48. | :09:57. | |
injury and a broken neck. Mark's injuries were classed | :09:58. | :10:00. | |
as unsurvivable and it's only because of these medics that you're | :10:01. | :10:02. | |
getting on board, voluntary, Today's a birthday celebration | :10:03. | :10:04. | |
and a chance to chat to the crews who turn out | :10:05. | :10:12. | |
in difficult circumstances. I think it's very rewarding | :10:13. | :10:16. | |
and when you see some of the patients we have treated | :10:17. | :10:18. | |
and a great outcome, This charity relies heavily | :10:19. | :10:21. | |
on volunteers, not just medics who give their time for free, | :10:22. | :10:26. | |
since every rescue costs around It's thanks to the thousands | :10:27. | :10:28. | |
of people who support us and develop it that really we've | :10:29. | :10:40. | |
achieved what we have today. So happy birthday to a well-loved | :10:41. | :10:43. | |
service, one many people chose to support but hope they never | :10:44. | :10:46. | |
need to use. Still to come on Wednesday's Look | :10:47. | :10:53. | |
North: Camping out in church - the trendy new way to book | :10:54. | :10:56. | |
an overnight stay. We hang on the drive, fine | :10:57. | :11:05. | |
conditions in the short-term. Join me for the weather forecast and news | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
on the winning April weather picture. | :11:10. | :11:15. | |
It's called champing and, put simply, it means | :11:16. | :11:17. | |
Old St Stephen's Church at Fylingdales near Robin Hood's Bay | :11:18. | :11:27. | |
in North Yorkshire is leading the way, with campers already | :11:28. | :11:29. | |
But, as Carla Fowler reports, not everyone thinks it's a good idea. | :11:30. | :11:34. | |
How would you like to wake up like this, under a pulpit, | :11:35. | :11:37. | |
It's thought the Old Church of Saint Stephen in Fylingdales | :11:38. | :11:48. | |
has its origins in the 11th century, but this is 21st-century holidaying. | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
Sarah has travelled from Michigan in the United States to stay here. | :11:52. | :11:54. | |
It's her first trip to England and she chose Yorkshire | :11:55. | :11:56. | |
because she saw that this unique church was available to camp in. | :11:57. | :12:02. | |
It's beautiful here and I wanted to visit Yorkshire and when I open | :12:03. | :12:06. | |
the door, I'd seen pictures of it online, but it was just, you know, | :12:07. | :12:09. | |
it felt like this is my church, at least for a night or two, | :12:10. | :12:14. | |
this is mine and so I felt really excited to be able | :12:15. | :12:17. | |
to see all that history, a place so full of stories. | :12:18. | :12:28. | |
Old St Stephens belongs to the charge's conservation trust. | :12:29. | :12:31. | |
They protect hundreds of historic and at risk churches. | :12:32. | :12:35. | |
They came up with champing two years ago and it is | :12:36. | :12:38. | |
new life into old buildings and new funds. | :12:39. | :12:41. | |
At the end of the day, everything we do is about sustaining | :12:42. | :12:44. | |
the life of the buildings that have been at the heart of their community | :12:45. | :12:47. | |
for hundreds of years and it is new uses for old churches | :12:48. | :12:51. | |
and the funds that we raise are helping to pay for their | :12:52. | :12:54. | |
But some locals are shocked at the new use for this building, | :12:55. | :13:00. | |
especially those with generations of relatives and ancestors | :13:01. | :13:01. | |
A very strong community here, we are very attached to the church | :13:02. | :13:09. | |
so I think it has got to be very much supervised before you can | :13:10. | :13:12. | |
This picture tweeted by one recent champer here shows him | :13:13. | :13:23. | |
Can you imagine that happening in Rosslyn Chapel? | :13:24. | :13:29. | |
I know that sounds a bit weird in this advanced, secular society, | :13:30. | :13:34. | |
but how can you pray among a load of sleeping bags and | :13:35. | :13:37. | |
Several locals have complained, but CCT say surprising | :13:38. | :13:45. | |
activities have taken place inside churches throughout history. | :13:46. | :13:48. | |
The chance to sleep in a setting as unique as this has already | :13:49. | :13:52. | |
generated hundreds of bookings, but whether champing will be | :13:53. | :13:56. | |
Old Saint Stephen's new saviour is still up for debate. | :13:57. | :14:03. | |
Now it's a traditional hardware store which opened just | :14:04. | :14:05. | |
after the end of the Second World War. | :14:06. | :14:08. | |
Thorpe's, in the Newcastle suburb of Gosforth, has been run | :14:09. | :14:10. | |
They sell pretty much everything you can imagine and plenty of things | :14:11. | :14:17. | |
you probably never knew existed, but now the brothers running | :14:18. | :14:20. | |
the store are retiring and, as Mark Denten reports, | :14:21. | :14:22. | |
they're selling up and looking for a buyer. | :14:23. | :14:26. | |
In 1947, Edward Thorpe had a van and opened a shop. | :14:27. | :14:29. | |
70 years later, his grandsons also have a van and guess what? | :14:30. | :14:32. | |
It's a hardware store, but that doesn't really do it justice. | :14:33. | :14:37. | |
This is an Aladdin's Cave - if Aladdin had asked the genie | :14:38. | :14:40. | |
for everything from dog toys to sink plungers. | :14:41. | :14:48. | |
It's not rocket science really, it's just a matter of listening | :14:49. | :14:50. | |
I've been here since I was in nappies more or less, | :14:51. | :14:54. | |
but officially when I was about ten, 11, 12 as a Saturday boy. | :14:55. | :14:58. | |
I don't know what I'd have done without this shop. | :14:59. | :15:03. | |
33 years I've been here, especially on your own, women. | :15:04. | :15:05. | |
We run across here, the answer everything! | :15:06. | :15:08. | |
We run across here, they answer everything! | :15:09. | :15:10. | |
That's not for sale, but you can buy pretty | :15:11. | :15:27. | |
So there is a lot of stuff in there, but there is a question we need | :15:28. | :15:44. | |
to ask and it is based on a stock availability report of Colbert | :15:45. | :15:47. | |
We are conscious of the fact there is not another | :15:48. | :16:11. | |
Well the business is healthy and fit and healthy, | :16:12. | :16:16. | |
it's a good time to do it and get it organised properly so it continues | :16:17. | :16:19. | |
Now they are hoping a buyer can be found for this little bit | :16:20. | :16:25. | |
Time for sport, and Mike Ashley has been meeting Rafa Benitez? | :16:26. | :16:43. | |
Well, the big question, Jeff, was whether Rafa Benitez would stay | :16:44. | :16:45. | |
or go after guiding Newcastle to promotion at the first attempt. | :16:46. | :16:48. | |
And the good news for Magpies' fans in the last hour | :16:49. | :16:51. | |
is that the Spaniard has pretty much committed his future to the club | :16:52. | :16:54. | |
after positive talks with the owner Mike Ashley and MD Lee Charnley. | :16:55. | :16:57. | |
In the club's statement regarding the summer transfer kitty, | :16:58. | :16:59. | |
"Rafa and Lee can have every last penny that the club | :17:00. | :17:02. | |
generates through promotion, player sales and other means | :17:03. | :17:04. | |
For his part an upbeat Benitez wishes the fans | :17:05. | :17:10. | |
Following the club's relegation last weekend, | :17:11. | :17:17. | |
Hartlepool United hope to have a new manager in place | :17:18. | :17:19. | |
A statement from Chief Executive Pam Duxbury says everyone at the club | :17:20. | :17:25. | |
is devastated at losing Football League status and she's | :17:26. | :17:28. | |
Talks have already been held with the supporters trust | :17:29. | :17:32. | |
about increasing their involvement in the club. | :17:33. | :17:43. | |
The club is ?1.2 million worth of debt and Gary Cox of the German won | :17:44. | :17:46. | |
The club is ?1.2 million worth of debt and Gary Cox | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
?600,000 for his share to leave the club so there is an element | :17:50. | :17:54. | |
of dead there is a yes financial help is obviously needed. | :17:55. | :17:57. | |
Fan ownership, it's early days for that at Hartlepool and first | :17:58. | :18:00. | |
intention was all to get players on the board and have a say | :18:01. | :18:03. | |
in running the club and it looks like that's a bit closer | :18:04. | :18:06. | |
The man, who was Chairman of Darlington when it went | :18:07. | :18:09. | |
into administration five years ago is in surprise talks about investing | :18:10. | :18:12. | |
an initial ?40,000 in the playing budget of the fan-owned club. | :18:13. | :18:15. | |
Teesside businessman Raj Singh's return as an investor would have | :18:16. | :18:17. | |
But it would be controversial as he presided over a demise | :18:18. | :18:25. | |
which saw the Quakers relegated four divisions and effectively have | :18:26. | :18:27. | |
to start again as a new club in the Northern League. | :18:28. | :18:31. | |
Manager Martin Gray is among those calling for private investment | :18:32. | :18:34. | |
as Darlington were denied the chance of a fourth promotion in five | :18:35. | :18:37. | |
seasons because their new ground doesn't have enough covered seats. | :18:38. | :18:38. | |
Now, like Darlington, South Shields were once | :18:39. | :18:40. | |
a Football League club - only that was back in the 1920s! | :18:41. | :18:43. | |
After two promotions in as many years, the Mariners are moving | :18:44. | :18:49. | |
And ahead of next week's FA Vase final at Wembley, | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
they've unveiled ambitious plans for the future, | :18:54. | :18:55. | |
With three trophies already in the bag, a fourth at Wembley | :18:56. | :19:02. | |
in 11 days' time would crown an outstanding season's | :19:03. | :19:04. | |
But now they're laying the foundations for | :19:05. | :19:07. | |
From August, while the first team are moving up | :19:08. | :19:15. | |
from the Northern League to the Evo-Stick First | :19:16. | :19:17. | |
Division North, Shields will introduce an academy. | :19:18. | :19:18. | |
It'll be run by joint-managers Lee Picton and Graham Fenton, | :19:19. | :19:21. | |
who'll work at the club full-time along with former Sunderland | :19:22. | :19:23. | |
There's also an educational link to Sunderland College. | :19:24. | :19:28. | |
The Academy is a long-term investment, really, cos the idea | :19:29. | :19:35. | |
is we can create something that's quite unique for young 16 to | :19:36. | :19:38. | |
19-year-olds so they get both great football training but also | :19:39. | :19:41. | |
You hear stories about young, talented boys of premiership clubs | :19:42. | :19:46. | |
who haven't got the pathway to break into the first team | :19:47. | :19:49. | |
The level of football we are currently playing, | :19:50. | :19:58. | |
we can hopefully improve over the next two or three years. | :19:59. | :20:01. | |
I think we'll produce a lot of good, talented footballers. | :20:02. | :20:03. | |
The current crop have been doing pretty well this year. | :20:04. | :20:06. | |
And they'll have plenty of support for that Vase final | :20:07. | :20:08. | |
We have 12,000 at the minute, hopefully that will rise in the next | :20:09. | :20:12. | |
We're just looking forward to putting on a show for them, | :20:13. | :20:17. | |
almost like a thank-you for what they've | :20:18. | :20:19. | |
Can they seriously dream of a return to the Football League? | :20:20. | :20:24. | |
You look at the likes of Fleetwood Town and Burton Albion and clubs | :20:25. | :20:29. | |
like that who probably have a smaller population | :20:30. | :20:31. | |
than what South Shields have and, yeah, we have got history | :20:32. | :20:34. | |
within the Football League in years gone by. | :20:35. | :20:38. | |
Our ambition is a very high and it's a case of why not? | :20:39. | :20:41. | |
Former Newcastle Falcons and England fly-half Toby Flood is returning | :20:42. | :20:50. | |
The 31-year-old who came through the Falcons Academy | :20:51. | :20:57. | |
made his Newcastle debut in 2005 and played 71 games | :20:58. | :20:59. | |
He went on to win three Premiership titles with Leicester before | :21:00. | :21:04. | |
spending the last three seasons at French giants Toulouse. | :21:05. | :21:07. | |
Flood is the club's tenth new signing for next season. | :21:08. | :21:14. | |
I can't wait to see him back! Now let's see what's in store for the | :21:15. | :21:18. | |
weather. The weather picture competition gets | :21:19. | :21:28. | |
us around the region. So far this year we've had winning shots from | :21:29. | :21:32. | |
Cumbria, County Durham and Northumberland and to meet the | :21:33. | :21:35. | |
person choosing our winning April picture, we ought to pen -- we're | :21:36. | :21:41. | |
going to Penrith. I'm an artist, I'm from Cumbria, | :21:42. | :21:46. | |
born in Penrith, and I was the first ever artist in residence | :21:47. | :21:54. | |
at Everest base camp. I spent the whole climbing season, | :21:55. | :21:57. | |
April, May 2016 there I wanted to find out | :21:58. | :22:00. | |
why people were there. I asked climbers and trekkers | :22:01. | :22:09. | |
and cooks and doctors what they were doing | :22:10. | :22:11. | |
there and what the But after Everest, do our | :22:12. | :22:13. | |
April weather pictures There are always parallels | :22:14. | :22:25. | |
between places that are beautiful, slightly more extreme and a little | :22:26. | :22:37. | |
bit more snow. What an amazing choice of villages, | :22:38. | :22:42. | |
I'm bowled over by them all! One of my runners-up is the image | :22:43. | :22:50. | |
of Hadrian's Wall by Chris Boundey. I walked the wall in 2011 as part | :22:51. | :22:53. | |
of an arts residency so that My other is the Seaton Carew | :22:54. | :22:57. | |
image by Neil McKee. The sky and the colours, I used | :22:58. | :23:17. | |
to go to Seaton Carew as a student and we'd get there in the dark | :23:18. | :23:21. | |
and watch the sun come up with a beer, but it brought | :23:22. | :23:24. | |
back all the memories. My winning image | :23:25. | :23:27. | |
is by Dale McConnell. I'm a Cumbrian so I'm | :23:28. | :23:30. | |
possibly slightly biased! I looked at the image | :23:31. | :23:35. | |
and I was blown away by it. It's got subtle April, | :23:36. | :23:38. | |
Cumbrian colours, the yellows, the gorse, the bracken, | :23:39. | :23:43. | |
everything is just about to start to come to life and that light | :23:44. | :23:49. | |
is incredible and is I was at that place the other | :23:50. | :23:51. | |
day, on that little bit of land with the island at the end, | :23:52. | :23:57. | |
looking across at the raw beauty. I was there with my dog and my | :23:58. | :24:00. | |
girlfriend at exactly that spot, so it brought it back in a flash, | :24:01. | :24:06. | |
but it is a stunning picture. Weather-wise, we hang onto this dry | :24:07. | :24:27. | |
weather in the short term tomorrow. It looks like a dry, sunny day for | :24:28. | :24:32. | |
many of us, quite warm in places but there is a change under way. This | :24:33. | :24:36. | |
evening, it is dry was largely clear skies into the night and with light | :24:37. | :24:40. | |
winds it will be another fairly chilly night. Also watch out for you | :24:41. | :24:44. | |
mist or four patch forming in low-lying areas to the early hours | :24:45. | :24:47. | |
of the morning, temperatures down to 45 Celsius in towns and cities, -- | :24:48. | :24:55. | |
four or five Celsius so cold enough for a ground frost. It stays dry | :24:56. | :24:59. | |
throughout the day tomorrow. Any mist will clear. Maybe a patch of | :25:00. | :25:03. | |
cloud but plenty of blue sky, plenty of sunshine. The southeasterly | :25:04. | :25:09. | |
breeze and that'll start afresh in the day so it will feel cooler well | :25:10. | :25:16. | |
you are exposed to that wind. Temperatures in parts of Cumbria | :25:17. | :25:20. | |
could hit 20 Celsius tomorrow afternoon. We'd been saying things | :25:21. | :25:26. | |
are set to turn more unsettled and it still looks as if we will see | :25:27. | :25:29. | |
this cloud and rain sped up from the south as we head towards the end of | :25:30. | :25:33. | |
the week. It's quite humid air as well so some of the showers make the | :25:34. | :25:38. | |
heavy, perhaps thundery, and the unsettled team continues as we head | :25:39. | :25:41. | |
into the weekend. It's not going to rain all the time but it will be a | :25:42. | :25:47. | |
welcome sight, some of that rain for farmers, maybe not the cricket | :25:48. | :25:52. | |
players! The showery rain comes up through the afternoon and into the | :25:53. | :25:57. | |
evening, and easterly breeze but temperatures are still decent and | :25:58. | :26:00. | |
that went coming up from the southwest is quite mild, 18 Celsius. | :26:01. | :26:06. | |
Saturday, still the odd shower but there will be some bright spells, | :26:07. | :26:09. | |
southwesterly winds so it is used in areas that will see higher | :26:10. | :26:12. | |
temperatures at sunny spells and the job for Sunday. | :26:13. | :26:24. | |
We are back at the same time tomorrow. Join us then. | :26:25. | :26:30. |
