:00:07. > :00:11.Thank you for joining us tonight. �650 million and counting. 20 years
:00:11. > :00:17.on, is the legacy of Sheffield student Games worth the debts that
:00:17. > :00:27.remain? Also, the personal and moving story of a family from York
:00:27. > :00:32.who may share a deadly cancer gene. And an animal in formaldehyde,
:00:32. > :00:42.Damien Hirst's creations are back in town.
:00:42. > :00:46.
:00:46. > :00:51.And the detailed weather forecast Good evening. Now it was supposed
:00:51. > :00:57.to have cost council tax payers in Sheffield �150 million. Today the
:00:57. > :01:00.projected bill stands at a whopping �658 million. 20 years on from the
:01:00. > :01:04.World Student Games and the arguments about whether it was
:01:04. > :01:09.worth it rage on. Opinions differ, but what's certain is that it will
:01:09. > :01:14.take years fortd sit tkwroi pay it off.
:01:14. > :01:18.Legacy, it was a corner stone of the bid for 2012, the
:01:18. > :01:23.infrastructure and the promise to inspire future generations. The
:01:23. > :01:30.World Student Games left a legacy of sporting facilities in Sheffield,
:01:30. > :01:36.but was it a debt worth paying for? The Games opened on July 14, 1991.
:01:36. > :01:41.It was spectacular and dramatic. It came at a price. World class venues
:01:41. > :01:46.at -- that the taxpayer is paying for. We didn't need facilities of
:01:46. > :01:51.this quality for the student Games. It was about a long-term investment
:01:51. > :01:56.to transform the city. I personally think it has done. I think it would
:01:56. > :02:01.be a much sadder place without the facilities. The loan to pay for the
:02:01. > :02:05.venues has been renegotiated over the years. And the Council has
:02:05. > :02:10.borrowed against the value of the new facilities to fund other things
:02:10. > :02:16.bringing the final price tag to �658 million. 297 million has been
:02:16. > :02:22.paid off, leaving �25 million a year to be paid off until 2024.
:02:22. > :02:27.anyone heard of it since 1991? Has it ever appeared on television? Yes
:02:27. > :02:32.Commonwealth would have been something. We didn't get support
:02:32. > :02:37.from Government, not like Manchester, who got funding from
:02:37. > :02:44.the lottery and the government. World class facilities like ponds
:02:44. > :02:48.forge has produced world class talent. Ever since I started diving,
:02:48. > :02:52.I've been surround by Olympians and it's been a motivation. Without
:02:52. > :02:56.this, I would not be a diver. Because of the facilities, the
:02:56. > :03:00.Games brought the English Institute of Sport was built in Sheffield and
:03:00. > :03:03.now hosts Olympic athletes. But has the legacy of the Games and the
:03:03. > :03:08.debt its brought done anything for the people of Sheffield left paying
:03:08. > :03:13.it off? I think it raises our profile. It keeps us as a city
:03:13. > :03:17.that's quite important and has a part to play in sport. I'd say it's
:03:17. > :03:22.worth it but in the times that we're in, we could have done with a
:03:22. > :03:26.bit of saving. I've not got a problem with. It I know it's a lot
:03:26. > :03:30.of money, but things cost. facilities that we've got are
:03:30. > :03:35.pretty good, but I don't think they're used to the extent that
:03:35. > :03:43.they could be probably. No I don't think it's worth it. For better or
:03:43. > :03:47.worse, the World Student Games of 1991 have certainly left their mark.
:03:47. > :03:51.Even before the Games opened, there had been reservation abouts whether
:03:51. > :03:56.they would be a good long-term investment for the city. Now this
:03:56. > :04:00.BBC report was filmed in November 1989, 18 months before that
:04:00. > :04:06.ceremonial opening we've just seen. The massive construction project
:04:06. > :04:11.was under way to built the arena and the ponds forge swimming flex.
:04:11. > :04:15.The reporter then is now the BBC's political editor for Yorkshire.
:04:15. > :04:20.ARCHIVE: For Sheffield this is more than building Britain's biggest
:04:20. > :04:23.swimming pool. The World Student Games are �150 million gamble. If
:04:23. > :04:27.they win, it could attract inward investment from industry and
:04:27. > :04:32.business. But if they lose, the people of Sheffield could be left
:04:33. > :04:37.with a financial million stone for years to come. And Len joins us now
:04:37. > :04:43.from the Don Valley Stadium, 21 years on. You got it right, was it
:04:43. > :04:47.destined to be a failure? Well, I said they could be left with a
:04:47. > :04:50.financial million stone around their necks, I didn't realise it
:04:50. > :04:55.would be such a big mill stone. When this was a construction site
:04:55. > :05:00.we reckon today would cost around �120 million just to bield all the
:05:00. > :05:05.swimming pools and the stadiums and arenas. Another �30 million to
:05:05. > :05:11.stage the Games. �150 million in total. Since then, it ballooned up
:05:11. > :05:15.to over �650 million at one time and even now, after 20 years of pay
:05:15. > :05:20.back, you're still talking about the thick end of �300 million owing
:05:20. > :05:27.and it could take many years yet and I think it's a bit optimistic
:05:27. > :05:30.that it will be paid off by 2014, which is what, 2024, which is
:05:30. > :05:36.projected here. People talk about the legacy. Sheffield is the city
:05:36. > :05:41.of sport, hasn't it been worth it for that? I think that that's where
:05:41. > :05:45.the, where really the debate is on. I remember this part of Sheffield
:05:45. > :05:50.at that time in the 80s and before that in the 70s, what you got here
:05:50. > :05:56.was the biggest piece of industrial dereliction anywhere in Western
:05:56. > :05:59.Europe. Clear ago way that, and holding the student games was a
:05:59. > :06:03.gamble to be able to have a new beginning. From that points of view,
:06:04. > :06:06.yes, it's worked. But the cost was probably more than was expected.
:06:07. > :06:10.can remember being part of the Games. There was a fantastic
:06:10. > :06:16.atmosphere within the city for two weeks or so, do you think anything
:06:16. > :06:21.like this will ever happen on this scale again in Yorkshire? Well,
:06:21. > :06:25.it's highly unlikely that you'd do it for the World Student Games.
:06:25. > :06:30.This wasn't the Commonwealth Games, not the Olympics, it was the World
:06:30. > :06:34.Student Games. It didn't quite get the profile that was expected.
:06:34. > :06:38.Thank you. A family from York have allowed BBC cameras to follow them
:06:38. > :06:42.as they face the possibility that a breast cancer gene may have been
:06:42. > :06:47.passed from a mother to her daughters. Now Julia Booth hit the
:06:47. > :06:54.headlines in the 1990s with the emotional story of deciding to have
:06:54. > :06:57.a double massectomy. Now her daughters are facing up to the
:06:57. > :07:03.possibility that they may have the gene. We'll speak to Julia and one
:07:03. > :07:08.of her daughters in a moment. First this story.
:07:08. > :07:13.Josie is only 18 and lives in York. She knows she may be carrying a
:07:13. > :07:18.gene that coin crease her chances of getting breast cancer by 80%.
:07:18. > :07:22.It's just whether or not you want to risk feeling like part of your
:07:22. > :07:26.body might kill you. There is a genetic test that can tell people
:07:27. > :07:30.if they're carrying the gene. 14 years ago Josie's mother Julia
:07:30. > :07:36.allowed the BBC in Yorkshire to tell her story, when she found out
:07:37. > :07:40.she had the gene, she had a double mastectomy to prevent cancer
:07:40. > :07:45.developing. I knew long before I had the test, that if I had the
:07:45. > :07:52.gene I would have the surgery. My instant reaction was just get rid
:07:52. > :08:01.of them, they can kill me. Josie's older sister is 23 and has decided
:08:01. > :08:05.to take the test. There's somewhere between a 60% to 80% lifetime risk
:08:05. > :08:11.for breast cancer. But at 18 is Josie too long to take the test to
:08:11. > :08:15.find out if she has the gene? a decision, if you go and get the
:08:15. > :08:20.test done you can never take it back. Knowing she could be carrying
:08:20. > :08:24.the gene means Josie's health and her future are always at the back
:08:24. > :08:34.of her mind. How much she decides to know about her future health can
:08:34. > :08:37.
:08:37. > :08:40.only be her decision. Tonight we'll see if Josie does decide to have
:08:40. > :08:44.the test. Mum Julia and her daughter have both had the test,
:08:44. > :08:47.though it will not be revealed what the outcome is for Lucy until
:08:47. > :08:51.tonight's programme. Let's join them now from their garden in York.
:08:51. > :08:57.Julia, let me take you back many years, when you decided that you
:08:57. > :09:07.were going to have that double mastectomy. When you look back, do
:09:07. > :09:15.you have any regrets at all? Absolutely known. It's been a --
:09:15. > :09:20.none. They estimate my chances of developing it have dropped from
:09:20. > :09:24.about 85% to 4%. I don't have to worry about it any more. I don't
:09:24. > :09:29.have this awful fear hanging over me, as I used to have that I would
:09:29. > :09:33.die early, like my mum did at just 43 and leave my young family. I've
:09:33. > :09:37.been able to forget about it. I've had great reconstructive surgery,
:09:37. > :09:42.I'm pleased with how that's all gone. It's been a really good move
:09:42. > :09:46.for me. Lucy, if I can turn to you, in the film tonight, we will see
:09:46. > :09:51.you actually getting the results of your test and I know we're going to
:09:51. > :09:54.leave that for those to watch tonight, why did you decide and
:09:54. > :10:00.your younger sister still has to decide that you wanted the same
:10:00. > :10:03.test as much? I really felt like it was something that I had to know.
:10:03. > :10:09.The older I got the more I felt like I needed to know whether I had
:10:09. > :10:12.it or not so that I could start to take precautions and have screening
:10:12. > :10:15.and just make sure that everyone, that all the doctors were just
:10:15. > :10:19.watching and looking in case something happened. I didn't want
:10:19. > :10:23.it hanging over me for my whole life. Due get a feeling that it was
:10:23. > :10:28.beginning to do just, that that it was constantly on your mind? It was
:10:28. > :10:32.on my mind quite a lot. It wasn't always there, it was something that
:10:32. > :10:36.I thought of occasionally when I saw things about it on TV or if
:10:36. > :10:42.friends, I had a friend whose mum had breast cancer and that brought
:10:42. > :10:46.it home a little bit. It's times like that I thought I needed to get
:10:46. > :10:51.it sorted. With the gene, it is possible to get breast cancer as
:10:51. > :10:55.young as 23. It's something I really needed to think about.
:10:55. > :10:58.mum went to the extreme of having that double mastectomy, have you
:10:58. > :11:05.thought about or did you think before you had the test what you
:11:05. > :11:10.would do if the results were not good? I always assumed that if I
:11:10. > :11:15.had a negative, if I had a positive result, sorry, I would get the
:11:15. > :11:19.surgery, not immediately, the Jenette sifts will always say thaw
:11:19. > :11:26.don't need to think about having it at 23, but yeah, I always assumed
:11:26. > :11:31.if I had the gene I would at some point have a double mastectomy and
:11:31. > :11:36.my oaf Riz removed. Thank you very much for talking to us. We will
:11:36. > :11:41.follow that story. It's a fascinating documentary. It's
:11:42. > :11:46.called My Cancer Curse, Josie's story on BBC 3 at 9pm tonight.
:11:46. > :11:48.You'll find out then what Lucy found out about the tests and the
:11:48. > :11:53.fact whether Josie has decided to have them as well.
:11:53. > :12:01.Later, it's gathering momentum. A growing number of schools in
:12:01. > :12:03.Yorkshire are becoming academies. We look at the figures. A 19-year-
:12:03. > :12:08.old has been remanded in custody after appearing in court charged
:12:08. > :12:13.with the murder of a man in Sheffield. 30-year-old Zabi Rafiq
:12:13. > :12:16.was found near his home in May. Hassan Khan Maruff from Hampton
:12:16. > :12:20.Road was arrested in France and appeared before Sheffield
:12:20. > :12:24.magistrates this morning. The Government has confirmed that
:12:24. > :12:29.Yorkshire will continue to have a coastguard base that operates right
:12:29. > :12:32.roubd the clock. Plans to restrict the service at Bridlington to
:12:32. > :12:35.daytime hours have now been scrapped. The Transport Secretary
:12:35. > :12:40.has warned that jobs may still be lost.
:12:40. > :12:43.A haul of missing jewellery, shown on Crimewatch, after being found in
:12:43. > :12:47.Doncaster, appears to belong to Sharon Osborne. Detectives put out
:12:47. > :12:53.an appeal on the programme saying the stolen goods were worth �1
:12:53. > :12:58.million. The0s borns home was raided in 2004. On Twitter Sharon's
:12:58. > :13:01.daughter Kelly says her mum is over the moon, her mum can get her
:13:01. > :13:05.wedding ring back. A booklet containing the earliest rules of
:13:05. > :13:10.football has been sold at auction for an incredible, just under �1
:13:10. > :13:14.million. The 1859 rule book prepared for Sheffield FC is the
:13:15. > :13:19.world's only surviving copy. It's part of the club's historic archive
:13:19. > :13:23.and is said to have been crucial in the evolution of the modern game.
:13:23. > :13:27.There's to be a four fold increase in the number of schools in our
:13:27. > :13:32.area that becomes academies. That means they will take funding
:13:32. > :13:41.directly from the Government with local input. It is a controversial
:13:41. > :13:46.subject, given the amount of schools taking up the option. When
:13:46. > :13:50.the new school year began last September, there were 18 academies
:13:50. > :13:55.in Yorkshire. Between then and now, 26 more have opened their doors.
:13:55. > :13:59.That momentum's increasing, as we head towards the new school year in
:13:59. > :14:03.September. 56 more schools applied to become academies, seven of those
:14:03. > :14:05.just in the last two weeks. It's expected by the time the new school
:14:05. > :14:10.year begins, the number of academies in Yorkshire will have
:14:10. > :14:14.shot up to 100. That's five times more than we started with. In terms
:14:14. > :14:18.of the total number of schools in Yorkshire, that's a relatively
:14:18. > :14:25.small number about 5%. Exactly what is an academy and why are more
:14:26. > :14:30.schools deciding to become one? More -- this college in
:14:30. > :14:36.Huddersfield isn't an academy, not for seven weeks. It's just one of
:14:36. > :14:43.Yorkshire schools taking up the academy to have more independent
:14:43. > :14:47.control. This school's announced standing school so why change a
:14:47. > :14:53.winning formula. In a school you're trying to work threical endarz, the
:14:53. > :14:58.academic year, the financial year, as an academy the financial year
:14:58. > :15:01.becomes the same as the academic year. For us to plan the same way
:15:02. > :15:05.we plan for the students learning and progress say major advantage.
:15:05. > :15:10.So, fairly straightforward and after a consultation with parents,
:15:10. > :15:13.it's a decision that's been widely supported here. Now, this isn't a
:15:13. > :15:17.new idea. Think back to Tony Blair, take a short hop to Bradford and
:15:17. > :15:22.you'll find an example of why the new Government's so keen on the
:15:22. > :15:27.plan. Here they took a failing school in 2007 and made Tay a
:15:27. > :15:31.success. In our case we took over a very challenging situation and have
:15:31. > :15:35.clearly demonstrated we've been successful. The academy element was
:15:35. > :15:40.an important feature. Don't think this is a panacea or without
:15:40. > :15:46.controversy. Plans to convert a similarly failing school in
:15:46. > :15:50.mexborough has been met with diplace. The clearly the argument
:15:50. > :15:54.that academies can improve standards faster than the
:15:54. > :15:59.equivalent state school is unfounded. There's no independent
:15:59. > :16:04.evidence for that. The way that it's being promulgated and
:16:04. > :16:07.perpetuated by this Government is clearly unfair. Parents, worried
:16:07. > :16:11.about academy status for another outstanding school, this one in
:16:12. > :16:15.Sheffield, share those concerns. don't see any positives in having
:16:15. > :16:18.schools run as businesses and compete against each other. I think
:16:18. > :16:22.schools need to work together. I think they need to work in the
:16:22. > :16:25.interests of children. If they're working as competing business units,
:16:25. > :16:31.they're going to take their eye off the ball when it comeles to the
:16:31. > :16:38.teaching and learning of children. An evenly weighted argument, an
:16:38. > :16:42.age-old problem yet to be solved to everyone's satisfaction.
:16:42. > :16:44.Some fighting talk - Curtis Woodhouse is pulling no punches
:16:45. > :16:51.ahead of a title fight on Saturday. We take cover.
:16:51. > :16:59.And it looks like a restaurant, but it is, in fact, art, Damien Hirst
:16:59. > :17:03.style in Leeds. You wish. I know. I've been going
:17:03. > :17:08.on about them, but this Yorkshire side has so much rich potential. It
:17:08. > :17:11.was on show this morning. For the second time in two days, Harry has
:17:11. > :17:16.been to Scarborough cricket ground to watch this time a vital win.
:17:16. > :17:22.It's only the second of the season in the championship.
:17:22. > :17:26.No finer sight, a beautiful day to watch the young guns. New cap
:17:26. > :17:36.Johnny Besto giving Richardson the treatment. Next ball a grubber. It
:17:36. > :17:37.
:17:37. > :17:42.wasn't easy this morning. Joe Root is a class act. And with Berstow a
:17:42. > :17:47.winning partnership developed. Root has so much promise, quality that
:17:47. > :17:57.underlines how good the academy is in producing young promising
:17:57. > :17:57.
:17:57. > :18:02.players. Only one wicket this morning. 143 balls, patient, that's
:18:02. > :18:07.why some of us remain so excited about him and the future. He showed
:18:07. > :18:11.his quality in a pressurised situation. He kept calm, very
:18:11. > :18:15.assured. He's done that throughout the summer. He's a very good first
:18:15. > :18:20.season. I think hopefully he'll go on and be a top-class player.
:18:20. > :18:25.That's why there was a great reception for young Root. Excellent
:18:25. > :18:28.21 points two, deducted for a slow overrate. Hope that won't hurt us
:18:28. > :18:33.at the end of the season. The thoughts go to Lord's and the first
:18:33. > :18:37.Test against India. Every time I step out at Lord's, there's a rush
:18:37. > :18:43.of pride over yourself. It's a very, you get the continuingles down the
:18:43. > :18:47.spine. It's a very nice feeling, specially when it's a packed house.
:18:47. > :18:51.It will be a well supported Test series. There's nothing much better
:18:51. > :19:01.in cricket, apart from the Ashes, but that's what every kid dreams of.
:19:01. > :19:09.
:19:09. > :19:14.We're delighted you're back in the In golf, Worksop's Lee Westwood
:19:14. > :19:20.struggled in the first round at the Open. Not so North Yorkshire's
:19:20. > :19:26.Simon Dyson, who's two under and Sheffield's Danny Willett. He's
:19:26. > :19:31.teed off in the opening group and went round in one under par.
:19:32. > :19:38.Getting up at 4am is a bit of a shock to the system. Then you get a
:19:38. > :19:43.bit of adren clin. The best part of my game was the putting today. You
:19:43. > :19:49.can have some long puts, so it was key around here. Two Sheffield
:19:49. > :19:55.football clubs have announced a sponsorship deal. Westfield Health
:19:55. > :19:58.and Gilder Group will jointly sponsor Sheffield Wednesday and
:19:58. > :20:01.Sheffield United. It's a bolt move for the two rival clubs. But
:20:01. > :20:05.they're stressing that the collaboration will not go at all
:20:05. > :20:09.beyond the sponsorship deal. I'm sure it won't!
:20:09. > :20:13.Now Sheffield United footballer turned professional boxer, Curtis
:20:13. > :20:18.Woodhouse, faces the biggest fight of his career on Saturday. He takes
:20:18. > :20:21.on the former amateur world champion, Frankie Gavin. It's for
:20:21. > :20:27.the intercontinental welter weight title. It's a contest that's turned
:20:27. > :20:31.ugly well before the fight. In amongst the maze of punch bags
:20:31. > :20:35.in this Sheffield gym, is a man preparing for the fight of his life.
:20:35. > :20:39.One level below world title standard against an opponent who is
:20:39. > :20:43.a fast rising star. But Curtis Woodhouse has a plan. I've trained
:20:43. > :20:47.really hard for this fight. The plan is just to stick it on him
:20:47. > :20:55.straight from the off. Throw plenty of punches, get in his face and
:20:55. > :21:00.upset his rhythm and knock him out. There's no love loss between Curtis
:21:00. > :21:04.and his opponent Frankie Gavin. can't beat me. I'm bringing bigger
:21:04. > :21:10.punches than Curtis Woodhouse. He can only think of knocking me out.
:21:10. > :21:14.He can't knock me out. There's nothing unusual in pre-fight verbal
:21:14. > :21:18.blows. What's intensified this rivalry is a fight before the fight
:21:18. > :21:22.about weight. They had agreed to go into the ring weighing no more than
:21:22. > :21:28.ten stone four. When Gavin weighed in above that at ten stone seven,
:21:28. > :21:34.the rules were changed. Curtis is particularly unhappy with his
:21:34. > :21:40.promotor. I signed the contract, I said if I had rang Frank Warren up
:21:40. > :21:45.saying is there any chance we can change the fight to ten stone seven,
:21:45. > :21:51.do you think Frank would have given me the Leeway. I know what Frank
:21:51. > :21:55.Warren would have told me - no chance. I'm waiting for him to ask
:21:55. > :21:59.if I'll wear a blind fold for the fight. It's not going to affect the
:22:00. > :22:04.result of the fight. Trainer Glynn Rhodes has been in professional
:22:04. > :22:08.boxing for more than 30 years and thought he'd seen it all before.
:22:08. > :22:13.What's the point in signing a contract at ten stone four if a
:22:13. > :22:18.week before the fight you want it at ten stone seven. That means the
:22:18. > :22:21.contract you signed it's not worth the paper it's wrote on. Curtis is
:22:22. > :22:27.going into the fight already hurting. Whilst he's down, he's not
:22:27. > :22:30.out. To beat the man you've got to beat man. In my division he's the
:22:30. > :22:34.man. When I take him out on Saturday night, that makes me the
:22:34. > :22:39.man. I'm trying to read his tattoos, he
:22:39. > :22:44.has a book on his back. Good luck to him. I didn't look that closely
:22:44. > :22:48.to be honest. He grew up on the streets of Leeds and the only
:22:48. > :22:53.subjected that interested him at school was drawing. His dreams of
:22:53. > :22:58.becoming an artist were seemingly dashed when he was rejected by
:22:58. > :23:04.Leeds college of art and design. But Damien Hirst has become one of
:23:04. > :23:07.the richest and most controversial artists in the world. Now his home
:23:07. > :23:10.town is to honour him with the first dedicated exhibition of his
:23:10. > :23:20.work. We got a sneak preview this
:23:20. > :23:24.
:23:24. > :23:29.He's regarded as one of the most innuen shall artists of his
:23:29. > :23:33.generation and has created some of the world's most famous images and
:23:33. > :23:37.exhibits. From tomorrow Damien Hirst is coming thom Yorkshire.
:23:37. > :23:43.-- home to Yorkshire. This is perhaps his most famous
:23:43. > :23:49.works, the iconic Away from the Flock. For three months visitors
:23:49. > :23:55.here will be able to enjoy some of the artist's most famous exhibits.
:23:55. > :24:02.Nigel is the curator of the art gallery. How important is this?
:24:02. > :24:05.It's a great opportunity. He's not shown in any depth here in the past.
:24:05. > :24:10.His formative artistic life started here as a student, before he went
:24:10. > :24:16.on to London. What's Hirst her trying to say with these exhibits?
:24:16. > :24:21.He's trying to reveal certain ideas that have always fascinated him,
:24:21. > :24:28.medicine, being the modern religion, in which people have perhaps a
:24:28. > :24:35.mistaken total faith, the fact that it can cure all evils, and death is
:24:35. > :24:41.another taboo subject he looks at. This is my favourite part of the
:24:41. > :24:50.exhibition, this is a recreation of Damien Hirst's famous 1998
:24:50. > :24:55.collaboration, a restaurant called Pharmacy. Pt He's always been very
:24:55. > :25:00.interested in eating and dining. In this case he worked with three
:25:00. > :25:05.others to develop a concept of a restaurant that would have that
:25:05. > :25:11.minimalist, clinical aura of a pharmacy. Hirst likes to challenge
:25:11. > :25:18.our ways of thinking, artist room certainly does that. The exhibition
:25:18. > :25:22.runs until October. Different as ever! Indeed very
:25:22. > :25:26.controversial. Talking of controversial, Mr Hudson, I've been
:25:26. > :25:30.reading your blog and it's a shock. Yeah that is controversial.
:25:30. > :25:35.predict rain from now until the end of July. How do you do that?
:25:35. > :25:40.Certainly the second half of July looks, well the atmosphere is
:25:40. > :25:45.getting locked into a ruck, so there's a lot of low pressure. If
:25:45. > :25:55.you want to read more I'll give you the address. First this picture was

:25:56. > :26:06.Last night we had a ground frost across the Yorkshire Dales which is
:26:06. > :26:20.
:26:20. > :26:24.Let's enjoy what warmth we've got tomorrow. There will be some
:26:24. > :26:29.sunshine around. It will tend to cloud over, but apart from one or
:26:29. > :26:33.two showers, most places stay dry until the end of the day, before
:26:33. > :26:36.low pressure sweeps in for the weekend. It is a pleasant end to
:26:36. > :26:40.the day. That line of cloud continues to thicken. It could
:26:40. > :26:43.bring one or two light showers across some parts of our region.
:26:43. > :26:53.Very much the exception to the rule. Most places dry and by the end of

:26:58. > :27:01.the night it's chilly but not as There should be some sunshine for
:27:01. > :27:05.most of us tomorrow. The cloud comes and goes, could produce one
:27:05. > :27:08.or two showers in the morning. But most places will be dry. Through
:27:08. > :27:11.the afternoon, slowly cloud thickens from the west. Again a
:27:11. > :27:14.chance of a shower. We'll have to wait until late in the afternoon,
:27:15. > :27:19.probably tomorrow evening, before we get patchy rain spreading in
:27:19. > :27:24.from the westerly point. A quick look at temperatures, warm, 22 in
:27:24. > :27:27.Rotherham, that's 72 Fahrenheit. Similar values towards the East
:27:27. > :27:29.Coast. For the weekend, showers, longer spells of rain, perhaps
:27:29. > :27:34.longer spells of rain, perhaps heavy, especially at first on
