Good evening. Welcome to Look North. Targeting the metal thieves, police | :00:10. | :00:15. | |
in Sheffield Braid dozens of homes in a clampdown on the crime that | :00:15. | :00:20. | |
blights every day life. Also, the last resort. How | :00:20. | :00:24. | |
thousands of people in Yorkshire are paying sky-high interest on | :00:24. | :00:28. | |
loans taken out from doorstep sellers. | :00:28. | :00:33. | |
And it green and pleasant, but where are the trees? Why people are | :00:33. | :00:38. | |
being urged to plant more trees in the Yorkshire Dales. | :00:38. | :00:45. | |
The skies were clear earlier today but will be sunshine last? Join me | :00:45. | :00:55. | |
:00:55. | :00:56. | ||
later to find out. We start the programme with news | :00:56. | :01:01. | |
that metal theft is a growing problem across Yorkshire and the | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
disruption caused is increasingly affecting our daily lives. Now | :01:04. | :01:09. | |
police are hitting back. They have mounted a series of raids | :01:09. | :01:13. | |
on houses and lock-up us in South Yorkshire and arrested more than 20 | :01:13. | :01:17. | |
suspected thieves and are recovering thousands of pounds- | :01:17. | :01:23. | |
worth of Stonham Aspal. -- stolen metal. | :01:23. | :01:30. | |
A normally quiet street, suddenly busy with police. Outside the house, | :01:30. | :01:36. | |
a tell-tale sign. The remains of a fire, used to remove copper from | :01:36. | :01:40. | |
stone and cable. This is not the kind of thing you would get in your | :01:40. | :01:46. | |
house. It is something from a factory. It is too big to have been | :01:46. | :01:50. | |
in the house. We need to speak to them about where this has come from, | :01:50. | :01:56. | |
why they have got this burnt side. It is a rest number 22 in this | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
week-long operation. We are going to have to arrest you on suspicion | :02:00. | :02:08. | |
of theft of this metal. Across town, there is an amazing discovery. A | :02:08. | :02:13. | |
backyard scrapyard, metal of all crimes, almost certainly all stolen. | :02:14. | :02:22. | |
What has been found here, stolen roadsides, beer kegs, cutting the | :02:22. | :02:27. | |
air and over in the corner, a smelting pot, a basic foundry. And | :02:27. | :02:34. | |
this is the end product -- product, aluminium. A I have never seen such | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
a set-up. We work on metal theft day to day and I have never seen | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
anyone with a home-made foundry like this. This is a decent fined | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
for us. The owner says he can explain anything but he will have | :02:47. | :02:53. | |
to do it at the police station. is not a victimless crime. It | :02:53. | :02:57. | |
affects rail travel, street lights, electricity supply, broadband and | :02:57. | :03:03. | |
all ends up as higher bills. It is off to address number three. I am | :03:03. | :03:09. | |
here with a search warrant. metal this time, but they have | :03:09. | :03:17. | |
still struck gold. 27 cannabis plants, around �20,000 worth. | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
Criminals apparently diversified. That offers no protection. I want | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
the criminals in Rotherham to note that we know who you are, we have | :03:26. | :03:36. | |
:03:36. | :03:39. | ||
Next tonight, there are warnings that 40,000 people living in | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
Sheffield attract -- are trapped in poverty and are forced to borrow | :03:43. | :03:46. | |
money at exorbitant rates of interest. These figures have been | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
released by the Citybus by university. If you borrow �500 from | :03:50. | :03:55. | |
a doorstep lender, you could pay another �500 in interest. That is | :03:55. | :03:59. | |
compared with around �80 interest if you borrowed it from a credit | :03:59. | :04:04. | |
union. Or just �50 interest from a bank loan. | :04:04. | :04:08. | |
In a moment we will be talking to an economics expert who has | :04:08. | :04:13. | |
investigated the issue. First, we have been to meet one woman who | :04:13. | :04:19. | |
found herself trapped in debt. She was a struggling single mum | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
when she borrowed money from door- to-door salesman in Sheffield. When | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
it came to Christmas, the loans felt like something she could not | :04:26. | :04:32. | |
refuse. Now, looking back, she wishes she had turned them away. | :04:33. | :04:39. | |
is not just the money-lending and the amount that they charge, it is | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
the fact that you have someone knocking on your door. It is not | :04:42. | :04:51. | |
very nice. How were they would you? When I could afford to pay, they | :04:51. | :04:55. | |
were fine. But if money was tight, they would be a little bit, you | :04:55. | :05:02. | |
know, not intimidating, but they would badger you a bit. She borrows | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
money from licensed doorstep salesmen. I have been speaking to | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
some of the company's selling these loans and they say they are heavily | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
regulated by the Office of Fair Trading. They told me they have a | :05:13. | :05:18. | |
complaints procedure and strict lending criteria. They also say | :05:18. | :05:22. | |
they are flexible when it comes to paying money back. That is very | :05:22. | :05:30. | |
different from the illegal loan sharks. Sheffield credit unions. | :05:30. | :05:34. | |
the Sheffield credit union office, loan sharks are something they know | :05:34. | :05:38. | |
well. People often come in for help because they have run up debts with | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
illegal lenders. And there they are worried about what could happen | :05:41. | :05:47. | |
next. People are scared, they are waiting for them outside schools. | :05:47. | :05:55. | |
With how the current climate is, they will turn to these people. | :05:55. | :05:59. | |
Laura is now a qualified nurse and her career helped her get her | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
finances back on track. She understands why many people across | :06:03. | :06:10. | |
the city are still tempted to borrow money on their doorstep. | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
It is a major problem. Let us talk to Professor Paul Mosley from | :06:14. | :06:21. | |
Sheffield University has just -- who has just published a book. You | :06:21. | :06:25. | |
are a director of the Sheffield credit union but central to your | :06:25. | :06:29. | |
book has been the community development financial institutions. | :06:29. | :06:33. | |
That is nothing to do with your credit union, it is important to | :06:33. | :06:42. | |
make that clear. What are they and why are they so important? They are | :06:42. | :06:46. | |
organisations which lend a almost entirely to the lowest income | :06:46. | :06:51. | |
groups of up because of that, the risk of lending is higher and they | :06:51. | :06:57. | |
have to charge higher interest rate spent the credit union, typically. | :06:57. | :07:02. | |
Between 30 and 50%. That compares to the 24% charged by a credit | :07:02. | :07:08. | |
union. And that is much less by a - - less than doorstep lenders. | :07:08. | :07:13. | |
of your central points is that we should make more credit facilities | :07:13. | :07:18. | |
available and publicise them? So that people do not go to the | :07:18. | :07:21. | |
illegal or illicit loan sharks? Making more facilities available, | :07:21. | :07:26. | |
certainly. But the most important problem is one of awareness. A lot | :07:26. | :07:31. | |
of the people who are on low incomes and feel that they are | :07:31. | :07:34. | |
forced into borrowing from a load trucks or doorstep lenders, in fact, | :07:34. | :07:42. | |
they do not need to do that because simply by going to a credit union, | :07:42. | :07:48. | |
they would pay far less and as a consequence have much less risk of | :07:48. | :07:55. | |
being trapped in debt. The other thing we saw there was even with | :07:55. | :08:00. | |
the licensed doorstep sellers, the costs are very high. They are | :08:00. | :08:06. | |
enormous. They vary from city to city. In Sheffield, we found that | :08:06. | :08:16. | |
:08:16. | :08:19. | ||
they were typically around 250% up to 350% or up to 10 times charged | :08:19. | :08:24. | |
by a credit union. These are huge amounts. Is there eight open pot of | :08:24. | :08:30. | |
money with credit unions? We hear reports of queues outside of credit | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
unions in areas like credit unions. Or two dozen people already in | :08:34. | :08:40. | |
serious debt. Indeed, there is not an open pot by any means. The | :08:40. | :08:43. | |
credit unions are very constrained as to what they can lend. On the | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
other hand, if someone who is in serious financial difficulty will | :08:47. | :08:53. | |
wait a month or so, then they will be able to pick up a loan and as a | :08:53. | :08:58. | |
consequence of that, they will be able to avoid the trapped in a debt | :08:58. | :09:05. | |
spiral. Thank you very much. We will have more on the story at | :09:05. | :09:08. | |
10:25pm when I will be speaking to a Sheffield MP who is not | :09:08. | :09:13. | |
complaining -- campaigning for tougher rules on legal money | :09:13. | :09:17. | |
lenders. Later on this Look North: getting | :09:17. | :09:22. | |
ready for the big freeze. How the gritters plan to keep our roads | :09:22. | :09:29. | |
open if the arctic temperatures return this winter. | :09:29. | :09:34. | |
Now in other news, the body of a volunteer soldier from Barnsley has | :09:34. | :09:39. | |
been blown back to RAF Brize Norton. Private Matthew Thornton was in the | :09:39. | :09:42. | |
Territorial Army and died last week while on patrol in Helmand province. | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
He was serving with the 4th Battalion The Yorkshire Regiment. | :09:46. | :09:50. | |
His family say he was a dedicated soldier and passionate about the | :09:50. | :09:56. | |
job. The government has confirmed | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
residents in four of our biggest cities will get the chance to vote | :09:59. | :10:03. | |
next May on whether to have an elected mayor. People in Leeds, | :10:03. | :10:08. | |
Sheffield, Bradford and Wakefield will all go to the polls. There had | :10:08. | :10:11. | |
been suggestions that only Leeds would get a referendum but that is | :10:11. | :10:15. | |
not the case. It will gauge public reaction. | :10:15. | :10:20. | |
Teachers at a West Yorkshire school are striking for a third date in | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
protest at proposals to turn it into an academy. Prince Henry's | :10:23. | :10:27. | |
School in Otley says that the move would improve job security but | :10:27. | :10:31. | |
teachers argue the change would affect their pay and conditions. It | :10:31. | :10:35. | |
is the third of six days of plan strike action. The pupil will only | :10:35. | :10:38. | |
be open to pupils in a year's 11 up to 13. | :10:39. | :10:42. | |
A thousands of people across Yorkshire tomorrow will be helping | :10:42. | :10:46. | |
to raise money for Children In Need. This week we have been showing you | :10:46. | :10:51. | |
exactly where your money goes. Today we have been to meet a 11- | :10:51. | :10:54. | |
year-old Yasser Bouarfa from Sheffield. He looks after his | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
mother and two siblings. Once a fortnight and in the holidays, he | :10:57. | :11:07. | |
:11:07. | :11:12. | ||
goes to a group funded by Children He was showing him how to finish | :11:12. | :11:22. | |
:11:22. | :11:22. | ||
the castle... The castle is now finished. My name is Yasser Bouarfa. | :11:22. | :11:29. | |
I am 11 years old and I help my mum because she has got problems and | :11:29. | :11:34. | |
she gets stressed really easily. Not a lot of my friends know that I | :11:34. | :11:39. | |
am a young terror because I do not think that they really care. -- | :11:39. | :11:46. | |
young carers. I have to help my mum for something like three or four | :11:46. | :11:53. | |
hours a day. Once I have done my chores, I go to bed and I get two | :11:53. | :12:03. | |
:12:03. | :12:04. | ||
hours to do the stuff I like to do. He is not just my son, he is my | :12:04. | :12:10. | |
friend. My life-saver, basically. Sometimes to be honest I feel | :12:10. | :12:16. | |
guilty. He does not have his child would like other children. He did | :12:16. | :12:24. | |
not have time to play and enjoy himself as a child. That is why I | :12:24. | :12:31. | |
contacted the people and they put him in a young carers group. Hello! | :12:31. | :12:36. | |
Every week, I cannot wait to go to the young carers group. I feel like | :12:37. | :12:41. | |
I know people who are like me and they do the same stuff as me. It | :12:41. | :12:51. | |
:12:51. | :12:58. | ||
It has affected my childhood. I want to go to university and I want | :12:58. | :13:08. | |
:13:08. | :13:12. | ||
to be a pilot because they get lots The Highways Agency has been | :13:12. | :13:16. | |
showing off the fleet of gritters that will be used to keep Yorkshire | :13:16. | :13:19. | |
moving if we get bad weather this winter. | :13:19. | :13:23. | |
I think some people have already forecast it. They were criticised | :13:23. | :13:33. | |
:13:33. | :13:39. | ||
This is the would head pass. It is dry and sunny and the conditions | :13:39. | :13:44. | |
are good but a year ago it was very different. The sign said it all. | :13:44. | :13:49. | |
The road was closed as Yorkshire endured its worst winter for many | :13:49. | :13:55. | |
years. Temperatures fell as low as -19 degree said Sears. This park | :13:55. | :14:05. | |
became cut off. The impact on the business was that we lost a lot of | :14:05. | :14:08. | |
money. Richard has criticised the Highways Agency who said they did | :14:08. | :14:13. | |
not do enough to keep the road open. I lived in Germany for I'm number | :14:13. | :14:21. | |
of years and I lived in a snowy park. Everything seemed to move OK. | :14:21. | :14:26. | |
At one of Yorkshire's busiest gritting depots, a Highways Agency | :14:26. | :14:29. | |
were keen to demonstrate that they are ready for winter and they do | :14:29. | :14:33. | |
not take decisions to close major roads lightly. We work with the | :14:33. | :14:39. | |
police and emergency services. If, for health and safety reasons, we | :14:39. | :14:44. | |
believe a closure is necessary then it will be closed. That is only a | :14:44. | :14:50. | |
last resort. 37 gritters will patrol the trunk roads and 35,000 | :14:50. | :14:55. | |
tonnes of salt is ready to be spread of the bad weather comes. | :14:55. | :14:58. | |
The Highways Agency reckon they'll be ready for winter but what about | :14:59. | :15:05. | |
us? Is my own car fit for driving on the winter roads? What do you | :15:05. | :15:11. | |
think? Let us looking your boot. You have your de-icer and your | :15:12. | :15:16. | |
scraper and a first aid kit which is very good. There is a code for | :15:16. | :15:22. | |
warmth. We also expect is for you to have a shovel and may be some | :15:22. | :15:25. | |
bottled water and it may be some food in case you broke down on the | :15:26. | :15:30. | |
side of the road so you could help yourself until rescue came along. | :15:30. | :15:34. | |
don't believe there will not be a repeat of these scenes this winter | :15:34. | :15:40. | |
but at least I am prepared for the worst. | :15:40. | :15:44. | |
Some people are predicting a really harsh winter so I will ask a poll. | :15:44. | :15:49. | |
He I am going to Australia so I do not care! | :15:49. | :15:56. | |
I will be in the middle of it. Before 7.00pm: | :15:56. | :15:59. | |
Why a bear is beating the bully. We meet the Yorkshire teenagers | :15:59. | :16:06. | |
pitching their idea to Google after winning a business competition. | :16:06. | :16:09. | |
And the sweet sound of charity, the young singers tuning up for | :16:09. | :16:19. | |
:16:19. | :16:26. | ||
Your favourite bit of the world? We are both passionate about the | :16:26. | :16:31. | |
Dales and the North York Moors. I am more third dales and you are | :16:31. | :16:35. | |
more the North York Moors. Think of the Yorkshire Dales and | :16:35. | :16:38. | |
you probably imagine a beautiful rural scene, maybe with a few sheep | :16:38. | :16:42. | |
and some dry stone walls to complete the picture. | :16:42. | :16:45. | |
But does the scene contain any trees? The reason we ask is that an | :16:45. | :16:48. | |
appeal's gone out to plant more trees in Yorkshire, because | :16:48. | :16:54. | |
apparently we don't have nearly enough. | :16:54. | :17:00. | |
We are high on the moors above a down on the M60 to. Hard at work | :17:00. | :17:06. | |
are a view of fallen -- crew of volunteer tree planters. They meet | :17:07. | :17:10. | |
every Saturday morning in the winter and leave a lasting legacy. | :17:10. | :17:14. | |
The landscape was quite barren after industry throughout the 90 | :17:14. | :17:21. | |
per century. In the last 30 years we have planted a around 400,000 | :17:21. | :17:26. | |
trees in this ballet and it has made a difference to the landscape. | :17:26. | :17:32. | |
The evidence is clear. 40 years ago these banks were bare. A | :17:32. | :17:36. | |
partnership organisation wants to see this type of drugs formation | :17:36. | :17:42. | |
all over Yorkshire. Does Yorkshire really need more trees? Take a look | :17:42. | :17:49. | |
around me. This is North Yorkshire. The landowners here are being asked | :17:49. | :17:53. | |
to spare a corner to give over to trees. That is because this is one | :17:53. | :17:58. | |
of the most treeless areas in the whole of Europe. It is not that the | :17:58. | :18:03. | |
trees cannot grow here. Centuries of overgrazing has left very little | :18:03. | :18:10. | |
tree cover. It is only 2%. It compares with five per day % in | :18:10. | :18:16. | |
Yorkshire as a whole and the European average is 30%. We need to | :18:16. | :18:21. | |
think about doubling our tree cover. It helps with climate change and | :18:21. | :18:30. | |
reduces the risk of flooding. It helps networks because species | :18:30. | :18:34. | |
migrate due to climate change and may need those connections. We hope | :18:34. | :18:39. | |
to put trees on to the land. I it is the land that is the crucial | :18:39. | :18:42. | |
factor. The White Rose Forest has trees and volunteers available but | :18:42. | :18:47. | |
they need somewhere to go. The land does not even changed ownership but | :18:47. | :18:56. | |
it just gets planted in a way that is careful to enhance a special | :18:56. | :18:58. | |
landscape. We are agreed but we are not sure | :18:59. | :19:05. | |
if there are new trees needed. I quite like the wildness. | :19:05. | :19:12. | |
I have heard you are a wild thing! Apparently it is a good idea, so | :19:12. | :19:15. | |
what do we know? Four teenagers from Keighley are | :19:15. | :19:18. | |
heading to New York this weekend to pitch an anti-bullying device | :19:18. | :19:22. | |
they've invented to the internet giant Google. The girls created | :19:22. | :19:28. | |
Bully Bear as part of a business competition. It involves a high- | :19:28. | :19:36. | |
tech Ted Heath. Have you ever been bullied? Yes. | :19:36. | :19:39. | |
Have you ever wanted to talk to someone other than a parent orate | :19:39. | :19:44. | |
teacher? The Bear meets at the children of a primary school and he | :19:44. | :19:50. | |
is about to cross the Atlantic. These girls created the bare during | :19:50. | :19:54. | |
a project at their school. It is designed so that children who are | :19:54. | :19:59. | |
being bullied can go to a quiet corner and tell the bare all about | :19:59. | :20:05. | |
it. There is a video camera behind its eyes and its arms give hugs. | :20:05. | :20:09. | |
The idea is that it is easier for children to tell her bare rather | :20:09. | :20:17. | |
than parents or a teacher. Adults can listen to the footage. I was | :20:17. | :20:20. | |
bullied him primary school and I didn't want to tell my parents or a | :20:20. | :20:22. | |
teacher. Wither Or from knowing what people go through and the herd | :20:22. | :20:26. | |
and the upset that you feel that you just want to talk to someone so | :20:26. | :20:30. | |
we thought that maybe a bear that everyone loves would help. I like | :20:30. | :20:35. | |
the way that when you press its little pause, it kind of looks at | :20:35. | :20:39. | |
you and it can see you and it records your voice so your teachers | :20:39. | :20:45. | |
can look at it and sort out your problems. The girls won the | :20:45. | :20:48. | |
national competition earlier this year and the prize was a trip to | :20:48. | :20:53. | |
New York. They leave on Saturday and may have been invited to pitch | :20:53. | :21:00. | |
at the Google offices. It is hard to think that we will be there. | :21:00. | :21:04. | |
will actually be presenting to Google. Nobody ever get this | :21:04. | :21:10. | |
opportunity is so fast to be doing it is out of this world. The four | :21:10. | :21:17. | |
girls, two teachers and one there will make their pitch next week. | :21:17. | :21:21. | |
Well done to those girls. There's concern for the future of | :21:21. | :21:23. | |
one of Yorkshire's most successful non-league football clubs. | :21:23. | :21:26. | |
Wakefield FC missed out on promotion to The Conference in 2001. | :21:26. | :21:29. | |
And under their previous name of Emley FC, they once gave West Ham | :21:29. | :21:33. | |
United a scare in the FA Cup. But now, Wakefield are playing in front | :21:33. | :21:36. | |
of barely 100 fans and cash flow problems are threatening the club's | :21:36. | :21:46. | |
:21:46. | :21:46. | ||
existence. If we stayed as we were at this moment of time and we did | :21:46. | :21:51. | |
not have an introduction of any fresh blood, whether it's an him | :21:51. | :21:55. | |
been -- whether it's an individual or a lot of supporters through the | :21:55. | :22:01. | |
gate then I think there is a grave danger that the club may not | :22:01. | :22:03. | |
continue. Well, there's just 24 hours to go | :22:03. | :22:06. | |
until Children In Need and four school choirs in West Yorkshire are | :22:06. | :22:13. | |
warming up for a very special performance in Pudsey town centre. | :22:13. | :22:23. | |
:22:23. | :22:24. | ||
What is Plan C doing there? -- what is Pudsey doing there? They're part | :22:24. | :22:27. | |
of the Children in Need national choir and will sing along with | :22:27. | :22:29. | |
other groups from across the country live on television tomorrow | :22:29. | :22:36. | |
night. Amy Garcia has been to their rehearsal. This lot are coming | :22:36. | :22:43. | |
together for the first time to practise for a thing a long. 2000 | :22:43. | :22:48. | |
pupils and only one rehearsal. Good luck. They will need it because | :22:48. | :22:51. | |
they are performing at the same time as 15 other choirs from across | :22:51. | :22:56. | |
the country. Up to 3,000 schoolchildren will sing the same | :22:56. | :23:05. | |
song at the same time on live TV. your word perfect? Could start. | :23:05. | :23:15. | |
:23:15. | :23:16. | ||
you know to perfect? Fabulous! you do all the actions? No! Better | :23:16. | :23:24. | |
practise them. How are you feeling about tomorrow night? Really | :23:24. | :23:29. | |
excited. A Jew but excited. Really excited. In it is great that we are | :23:29. | :23:35. | |
doing our part for Children In Need. It feels really good. It is done. | :23:35. | :23:45. | |
:23:45. | :23:45. | ||
bit nervous but quite excited as well. In 24 hours they will be | :23:45. | :23:50. | |
performing alongside 14 other choirs across the country. They are | :23:50. | :23:56. | |
doing really well. I think they will do Yorkshire proud. Pickets | :23:56. | :24:00. | |
are absolutely fantastic. They are responsive and they have learnt all | :24:00. | :24:03. | |
the notes and they are enthusiastic and I could not ask for better. | :24:03. | :24:11. | |
They have been wonderful. Bravo! Don't like to close. Next up at the | :24:11. | :24:18. | |
town centre for the singalong tomorrow night. | :24:18. | :24:21. | |
And tomorrow night Amy and Keeley Donovan will be live at Pudsey | :24:21. | :24:24. | |
Leisure Centre for Look North at 6.30pm and for our special Children | :24:24. | :24:26. | |
in Need programme from 7.30pm. If you've been fundraising and | :24:26. | :24:30. | |
would like to bring your cheques along, get in touch. The number and | :24:30. | :24:37. | |
email address to contact us are on your screen now. | :24:38. | :24:40. | |
A couple from Yeadon have won nearly two million pounds on the | :24:40. | :24:46. | |
lottery, but have no plans to move house or quit work. Married for 40 | :24:46. | :24:50. | |
years, Steve and Gwen Poole say they were happy before the win, and | :24:50. | :24:52. | |
her first purchase will be a new vacuum cleaner! The driving | :24:52. | :24:55. | |
instructor and dental nurse will share the money with their four | :24:55. | :25:05. | |
:25:05. | :25:07. | ||
sons. It is a dream come true. It is the only way to describe it. You | :25:07. | :25:12. | |
keep thinking of things that you can do in the future. I am starting | :25:12. | :25:16. | |
to believe it. I asked if I could have a new Hoover because my Hoover | :25:16. | :25:24. | |
has been driving me nuts! I think it is a good idea but I think the | :25:24. | :25:31. | |
first thing that I would buy a would not be a new Hoover! | :25:31. | :25:34. | |
If I do my wife a Hove after winning that I think she would | :25:34. | :25:41. | |
throw it straight back at my head. Three pictures that came in over | :25:41. | :25:51. | |
:25:51. | :26:05. | ||
. We keep the mild air for the next 24 hours. There will be some sunny | :26:05. | :26:10. | |
breaks but once again it is mild and breezy. The weather fronts come | :26:10. | :26:14. | |
in from the West but they are being pushed back by the high pressure | :26:14. | :26:19. | |
which is very persistent across Europe. It was beautiful this | :26:19. | :26:23. | |
afternoon. 13 degrees. We are starting to see cloud encroaching | :26:23. | :26:27. | |
from the West. The cloud will continue to thicken and there will | :26:27. | :26:32. | |
be some patchy rain. It will be especially over the Pennines and | :26:32. | :26:37. | |
perhaps further north. To the east it will be generally dry and frost- | :26:37. | :26:47. | |
:26:47. | :26:48. | ||
free tonight. The sun will rise in the morning. These are your high | :26:49. | :26:57. | |
water times. Tomorrow there will be variable and large amounts of cloud. | :26:57. | :27:03. | |
With a fresh South Park to south- westerly wind it though break-up | :27:03. | :27:13. | |
:27:13. | :27:14. | ||
and be quite cloudy at time but -- sunny breaks are expected. If it | :27:14. | :27:21. | |
brightens up there maybe temperatures getting up to 14 | :27:21. | :27:25. | |
degrees. We will be back to square one at the weekend. The extensive | :27:25. | :27:29. | |
cloud will redevelop but on the whole there will be a good deal of | :27:29. | :27:33. | |
dry weather to come. Not too bad for Children In Need. | :27:33. | :27:38. |
