:00:00. > :00:00.from the Atlantic. Thank you very much. That's it from us.
:00:00. > :00:14.Less Welcome to Friday's Look North. Our top stories tonight: The
:00:15. > :00:17.schoolchildren running on empty. The country's first ever food bank
:00:18. > :00:20.arrives at a community college in Sheffield after it's discovered one
:00:21. > :00:23.student hadn't eaten for three days. We ask how it can happen in this day
:00:24. > :00:25.and age. Also tonight:
:00:26. > :00:28.Round`the`clock police presence at the so`called Sheffield slave house
:00:29. > :00:34.after a series of revenge attacks on the property. People are going to
:00:35. > :00:39.feel, sorry, forgive the word, bloody angry at what they have done
:00:40. > :00:42.and they can't get at the family because they are all imprisoned, so
:00:43. > :00:44.the nearest thing is to get rid of the property, get rid of that
:00:45. > :00:46.memory. And Sheffield's Jessica Ennis`Hill
:00:47. > :00:54.announces she is pregnant. But what will it mean for the future of her
:00:55. > :00:58.athletics career? This is definitely not the forecast
:00:59. > :01:01.for the next couple of days. We will be looking back at 30 years of
:01:02. > :01:08.whether presenting here on the clause, plus I love that detailed
:01:09. > :01:11.weather forecast `` of the weather being presented here on Look North.
:01:12. > :01:25.Plus I will have that detailed weather forecast.
:01:26. > :01:29.Thank you be joining us. A school in Sheffield has set up its own food
:01:30. > :01:32.bank after discovering one of its students hadn't eaten for three
:01:33. > :01:35.days. The head teacher of Handsworth Grange Community Sports College
:01:36. > :01:38.fears many more families in the area can't afford to feed their children
:01:39. > :01:41.and that youngsters are turning up for lessons starving.
:01:42. > :01:44.In a moment, we'll hear from Matt Cameron from the Trussell Trust,
:01:45. > :01:47.which runs a network of food banks. But first, Ian White's been to the
:01:48. > :01:50.school in Handsworth. It's not just exercise books and PE
:01:51. > :01:54.kit these students take to school, now they are bringing tins, jars and
:01:55. > :01:57.packets to donate to a local food bank. It is after their headteacher
:01:58. > :02:01.made a shocking discovery. We have always tried to help families but
:02:02. > :02:12.before Christmas, a child came into us and said to us she hadn't
:02:13. > :02:14.eaten... It was a Monday morning and she hadn't eaten since Friday
:02:15. > :02:18.lunchtime. And it shocked us, really, to the core, and we decided
:02:19. > :02:22.we had to really extend the help we give to our children and our
:02:23. > :02:25.families. People our age shouldn't be worrying about whether they are
:02:26. > :02:28.going to eat or not, they should be worrying about their education and
:02:29. > :02:32.whether or not they are going to pass their studies. Items collected
:02:33. > :02:35.by the children here are sent to the main food bank in Handsworth, for
:02:36. > :02:41.redistribution to families who need them most. The situation is
:02:42. > :02:58.this isn't a particularly deprived area of Sheffield, so this shouldn't
:02:59. > :03:01.be happening. The growing levels of poverty in Sheffield has already
:03:02. > :03:04.been raised in Parliament. They had a non`uniform day to help Children
:03:05. > :03:08.In Need just before Christmas, and a couple of young girls came to the
:03:09. > :03:11.head and said, "Sorry, Miss, don't have the day, because we have no
:03:12. > :03:15.other clothes but our uniforms". The school helped them out, but, again,
:03:16. > :03:19.what a terrible state of affairs, to have girls in that position. In an
:03:20. > :03:22.area like this, with students coming in and not having food, it is really
:03:23. > :03:25.strange. It shouldn't be happening, especially not in these current
:03:26. > :03:28.times. By doing the food bank, it really makes people realise that
:03:29. > :03:32.some people are less fortunate than us and that we really are lucky to
:03:33. > :03:36.have what we have got. There are about 1,500 items that have been
:03:37. > :03:39.collected in three days. They are on their way to the Handsworth food
:03:40. > :03:44.bank. One positive thing to come out of this story is the fact that so
:03:45. > :03:47.many of these youngsters here at the school really, really do care about
:03:48. > :03:54.people who are less well`off than themselves. I think that really came
:03:55. > :03:58.out in your report. Matt Cameron works for the Trussell Trust, which
:03:59. > :04:02.runs a number of food banks. It is not pupils arriving hungry, it is
:04:03. > :04:06.starving. It is ridiculous. It is concerning that anyone in the UK
:04:07. > :04:10.would be going out without food, let alone children, so we as a network
:04:11. > :04:14.of food banks encourage all about projects to partner with schools to
:04:15. > :04:20.make sure that those who need the short`term food, get it, they can
:04:21. > :04:24.access it. We have seen what is happening there at that school in
:04:25. > :04:29.Sheffield, is it happening elsewhere in Yorkshire? Since April 2013, the
:04:30. > :04:33.food banks in Yorkshire and Humber have helped 22,000 people and just
:04:34. > :04:38.over a third have been children under 16, so it is certainly a
:04:39. > :04:41.growing issue and one that we are obviously working hard to address to
:04:42. > :04:45.make sure that people can get access to food if they needed. Good on
:04:46. > :04:48.Sheffield Council for doing what they are doing but is it really the
:04:49. > :04:52.responsibility of schools, which I am sure have enough on their plate,
:04:53. > :04:57.sorry to use that particular expression, is it really their job
:04:58. > :05:01.to deal with this? Certainly, they have a duty of care to their pupils
:05:02. > :05:06.and we say they are very well placed to identify need, and that is why
:05:07. > :05:10.they can... Like in Handsworth, they can work closely with the local food
:05:11. > :05:16.bank in donating food, which is fantastic to see, the pupils
:05:17. > :05:20.donating food and giving back. They really cared, didn't they? And that
:05:21. > :05:26.is what we are seeing, food banks are running the media a lot and we
:05:27. > :05:29.are seeing the community and making sure their neighbours are not going
:05:30. > :05:33.hungry, and that is one of the positive things to come out of this
:05:34. > :05:38.dreadful situation. Matt Cameron, thank you be joining us.
:05:39. > :05:41.`` for joining us. Now to new developments on the
:05:42. > :05:44.shocking story earlier this week about the man treated like a slave
:05:45. > :05:48.in Sheffield. The garage he was held in has been torched overnight.
:05:49. > :05:50.And it's emerged that the victim's adoptive father was a leading
:05:51. > :05:54.campaigner against slavery ` at one time heading the UK's Human
:05:55. > :05:56.Trafficking Centre. Cathy Killick has the update.
:05:57. > :05:59.They are pictures that have shocked and distressed all right`minded
:06:00. > :06:03.people. The sustained and systematic abuse of a vulnerable man by a
:06:04. > :06:06.family of bullies. David, Donna and James Rooke were jailed this week
:06:07. > :06:09.for keeping their victim, Craig Kinsella, like a slave, forced to
:06:10. > :06:17.sleep in this garage with a bucket for a toilet. Today, this is how it
:06:18. > :06:20.looks. Set alight last night, a sign of the disgust and anger locally.
:06:21. > :06:24.Having seen what we have seen, people are going to feel ` sorry,
:06:25. > :06:30.forgive the word ` bloody angry at what they have done. And they can't
:06:31. > :06:34.get at the family, because they are all in prison, so the nearest thing
:06:35. > :06:36.is to get rid of the property, get rid of that memory. Campaigns
:06:37. > :06:39.against slavery and trafficking highlight how it is happening,
:06:40. > :06:42.hidden all around us, and it emerged today that the victim's adoptive
:06:43. > :06:54.father was a leading campaigner against enslavement. He spoke to
:06:55. > :07:00.Look North in 2008. His words then painfully prescient now. The general
:07:01. > :07:03.public have a role to play. A key role. They need to understand that
:07:04. > :07:06.trafficking is not something remote. Interviewed by the Daily Mirror
:07:07. > :07:27.about his adopted son's treatment, he said:
:07:28. > :07:32.It is hard to understand how this level of violence could have
:07:33. > :07:36.happened under the noses of family and neighbours, but it did, right
:07:37. > :07:39.here in this ordinary street. And it is devastating to everyone around.
:07:40. > :07:42.If there is any message, I'd like to say I am sorry. If I had known, I
:07:43. > :07:54.would have loved to help you. Neighbour James Cutts ending that
:07:55. > :07:59.report from Sheffield. Later on Look North, ten years on
:08:00. > :08:01.and still waiting. The Yorkshire thalidomide victim still fighting
:08:02. > :08:08.for compensation decades after the drug was banned.
:08:09. > :08:12.Elderly residents at care homes across Calderdale and Huddersfield
:08:13. > :08:18.can now get expert medical advice 24 hours a day thanks to a video`link
:08:19. > :08:22.direct to hospital. A pilot project will run at 18 homes
:08:23. > :08:25.as part of plans to try and reduce hospital admissions and the strain
:08:26. > :08:32.on A Our Health Correspondent Jamie Coulson reports.
:08:33. > :08:38.We have Eileen Richardson this morning. Good morning, do you prefer
:08:39. > :08:43.Eileen or Mrs Richardson? If 85`year`old Eileen Richardson
:08:44. > :08:46.becomes unwell or needs medical attention, she can be seen
:08:47. > :08:49.immediately by a specialist nurse or doctor who is at the other end of a
:08:50. > :08:57.computer screen, rather than going to hospital. It is nice not going to
:08:58. > :09:02.outside, isn't it? Oh, yes. Not having to go to hospital. I just
:09:03. > :09:06.wanted to ask you some questions about your breathing. 18 homes
:09:07. > :09:10.across Calderdale and Huddersfield are taking part in a project which
:09:11. > :09:14.provides elderly residents with a secure video link to specially
:09:15. > :09:18.trained staff at Airedale Hospital. Care homes with the highest rates of
:09:19. > :09:22.hospital admissions were selected to take part in the project and it is
:09:23. > :09:28.hoped that by using this technology, they can reduce the strain on local
:09:29. > :09:32.hospitals and A departments. They don't have to travel, they don't
:09:33. > :09:37.have to sit in an A department or be seen by a clinician, it can be
:09:38. > :09:42.done there and then at their bedside. For us, it is fantastic and
:09:43. > :09:47.it is putting the patient first. We have used it for chest infections,
:09:48. > :09:52.back pains, minor fits, suspected strokes. We are straight onto the
:09:53. > :09:56.hub and we take guidance from them. From what you have told us, I don't
:09:57. > :10:00.think we need to see you again. The pilot project, which has been funded
:10:01. > :10:04.by the local hospital trust, will run for 12 months, offering patients
:10:05. > :10:12.like Eileen expert advice at the click of a button.
:10:13. > :10:15.Some news in brief, and police in Sheffield say the murder victim,
:10:16. > :10:18.Simon Holdsworth, may have known his killer. Mr Holdsworth, who was due
:10:19. > :10:21.to get married in August, was found battered to death in the
:10:22. > :10:24.Hackenthorpe area last month. Detectives now say his murder was
:10:25. > :10:27.unlikely to have been a random attack by a complete stranger. They
:10:28. > :10:30.say Mr Holdsworth's friends, family and colleagues may hold key
:10:31. > :10:39.information which could lead them to his killer, and have urged anyone
:10:40. > :10:43.who knew him to come forward. A man has died after he was found
:10:44. > :10:48.with serious head injuries in Skipton. The 68`year`old man, who
:10:49. > :10:51.has not been named, was found at the bottom of steps in the Gas Street
:10:52. > :10:54.car park last night. He died later at Airedale Hospital. Police are
:10:55. > :10:57.treating the man's death as unexplained and have urged anyone
:10:58. > :11:00.with information to come forward. A thalidomide victim from Yorkshire
:11:01. > :11:03.has been in Brussels for talks with the European health commissioner
:11:04. > :11:07.over his long running fight for compensation. Guy Tweedy wants
:11:08. > :11:10.pressure to be put on the German pharmaceutical company which made
:11:11. > :11:13.the drug. It was given to pregnant women in the late 1950s and early
:11:14. > :11:17.'60s to combat morning sickness, but was withdrawn after it was linked to
:11:18. > :11:25.limb deformities in newborn babies. Anna Crossley has the story.
:11:26. > :11:28.At the time, it was deemed a wonder drug, but these days, it is
:11:29. > :11:30.synonymous with one of the biggest pharmaceutical disasters this
:11:31. > :11:33.country has ever seen. Thalidomide was prescribed to pregnant women in
:11:34. > :11:37.the '50s to ease morning sickness, but it was withdrawn in 1962 after
:11:38. > :11:40.thousands of children were born with crippling defects. The UK's first
:11:41. > :11:47.memorial to thalidomide victims is here in Harrogate. This tree was
:11:48. > :11:56.planted just over a year ago to mark the 50th anniversary of the pill's
:11:57. > :11:58.withdrawal from the market. This plaque commemorates the babies and
:11:59. > :12:04.the families whose lives were devastated by the drug. The memorial
:12:05. > :12:10.was paid for by thalidomide victim Guy Tweedy, seen here with Elmet and
:12:11. > :12:13.Rothwell MP Alec Shelbrooke. Guy spent the last decade trying to get
:12:14. > :12:17.Gruenenthal, the German company who made the drug, to compensate
:12:18. > :12:20.victims. Today, he has been in Brussels to try to broker talks
:12:21. > :12:27.between the German government and Gruenenthal. It is very sad that I
:12:28. > :12:30.am still fighting after ten years of campaigning, but what we are looking
:12:31. > :12:33.for from Gruenenthal is a meaningful and proper apology, as well as a
:12:34. > :12:36.financial settlement to make the last third of the lives of
:12:37. > :12:42.thalidomiders a bit more comfortable. Guy's fight for
:12:43. > :12:45.compensation has been supported by Alec Shelbrooke, who is also chair
:12:46. > :12:49.of the All`Parliamentary Group for Thalidomide. Gruenenthal do have a
:12:50. > :12:52.moral responsibility to help with those funds, because we sometimes
:12:53. > :12:55.forget that people who are victims of thalidomide are now moving into a
:12:56. > :12:59.later stage of life and, actually, it is not the fact that they were
:13:00. > :13:03.born without arms and legs, it is the fact now that they have had to
:13:04. > :13:12.use their mouths for much of their lives, their jaws are starting to
:13:13. > :13:16.crumble. So there are other issues now that are coming to the fore.
:13:17. > :13:19.Guy's says today's meeting with the EU Health Commissioner was positive
:13:20. > :13:22.and hopes thatm half a century on, victims could be moving closer to
:13:23. > :13:30.receiving the compensation they feel they deserve.
:13:31. > :13:35.Before seven o'clock. Does this ring a bell?
:13:36. > :13:41.Our Harry has a go at the ancient art. But will he be able to knock
:13:42. > :13:45.out a tune? Or even pick one up! And who's this fresh`faced
:13:46. > :13:55.meteorologist? Oh, dear. We celebrate six decades of forecasting
:13:56. > :14:00.at the BBC. He looks like a 12`year`old. In his
:14:01. > :14:04.grandad's suit. My favourite sports personality of
:14:05. > :14:13.all time has to be a young lady who is celebrating things.
:14:14. > :14:16.She has some big news, she is celebrating.
:14:17. > :14:19.Yes, and she's not talking about Nakhi Wells going to Huddersfield.
:14:20. > :14:21.Which has happened! Sheffield's Olympic Champion
:14:22. > :14:25.heptathlete Jessica Ennis`Hill has announced she is expecting a baby.
:14:26. > :14:28.But it does mean she'll miss this year's Commonwealth Games in
:14:29. > :14:31.Glasgow. In a statement, she said she and her husband were completely
:14:32. > :14:33.overwhelmed with excitement. She plans to return to full`time
:14:34. > :14:37.athletics and defend her Olympic gold medal in Rio in 2016, but
:14:38. > :14:41.should be back competing a lot sooner. Shamir Masri has more.
:14:42. > :14:44.Here is heptathlete Jessica Ennis`Hill, with her husband Andy,
:14:45. > :14:47.arriving for the BBC Sports Personality of the Year awards in
:14:48. > :14:50.December, in Leeds. It is highly likely the couple would have known
:14:51. > :14:57.Jess was pregnant, but it wasn't until this morning they shared the
:14:58. > :15:01.news with the world. I haven't spoken to them today, I will leave
:15:02. > :15:06.them be, but of course, they will be delighted. As is any couple with
:15:07. > :15:23.this news. In a statement, Jess said:
:15:24. > :15:29.I think now, taking this period of time, might actually lengthen her
:15:30. > :15:32.career. We have the World Championships in
:15:33. > :15:36.London in 2017, the Commonwealth Games will be on the Gold Coast in
:15:37. > :15:39.2018. There is always a championship year. 27`year`old Jess has not
:15:40. > :15:43.competed in a major championships since winning Olympic gold at London
:15:44. > :15:47.2012. She will still train during her pregnancy, and experts say it
:15:48. > :15:50.will actually help. We know from doing training studies that it is
:15:51. > :15:53.actually aerobic fitness that declines most, rather than strength
:15:54. > :15:58.and speed, and in pregnancy, what she will be looking to do is try and
:15:59. > :16:01.maintain that strength and speed. She can do that through various
:16:02. > :16:10.means of low intensity weight`training ` circuit training,
:16:11. > :16:14.for example. The first two months after birth, I think, is when you
:16:15. > :16:18.sort of have to be a little bit careful, and then we will build back
:16:19. > :16:21.up into a training plan and will be looking at the European indoors as a
:16:22. > :16:25.real possibility. But certainly, the World Championships in Beijing would
:16:26. > :16:28.be the main target we would look at and then onwards to Rio. There is
:16:29. > :16:31.disappointment Sheffield's golden girl will not be competing in
:16:32. > :16:34.Glasgow this summer, but she said she will be watching at home,
:16:35. > :16:44.waiting for the arrival of a little Ennis`Hill.
:16:45. > :16:48.She will be able to double that smile soon. Congratulations from all
:16:49. > :16:51.of us. Loads of transfer activity in the last few hours, it is the
:16:52. > :16:55.January transfer window and it is getting very busy. Sheffield United
:16:56. > :16:58.have made a move to add more goals to the team. The Blades have brought
:16:59. > :17:01.in Billy Paynter, on loan from Doncaster Rovers. Rotherham United
:17:02. > :17:05.have signed QPR striker Tom Hitchcock on loan. And a major
:17:06. > :17:11.transaction competed in the last ten minutes, I kid you not. Nakhi Wells
:17:12. > :17:19.has moved from Bradford city to Huddersfield town. It is a port of
:17:20. > :17:22.`` 4`.5`year deal, and a club record fee for Huddersfield, in excess of
:17:23. > :17:34.?120 million. Wells will play at home to Millwall tomorrow. `` ?1.2
:17:35. > :17:37.million. In football this weekend, there's yet another clash of the
:17:38. > :17:39.Yorkshire neighbours, Sheffield Wednesday host Leeds United at
:17:40. > :17:42.Hillsborough. And you get the feeling that both clubs are on the
:17:43. > :17:44.brink of change. Sheffield Wednesday have spent a lot
:17:45. > :17:48.of time recently asking themselves some uncomfortable questions. How on
:17:49. > :17:52.earth they have spent most of the season in the relegation zone, for
:17:53. > :17:55.example. But now they are out of it, thanks to the effort of the still
:17:56. > :17:58.temporary Andre Villas`Boas one. He wants to stay in the job the good
:17:59. > :18:08.but the chairman is keeping him waiting `` of the still temporary
:18:09. > :18:13.manager, Stuart Gray. It is dragging on a bit but it will probably be
:18:14. > :18:18.after Saturday's game, that is what chairman quoted. Do you think the
:18:19. > :18:23.game will influence it? I have no idea, you'll have to ask the
:18:24. > :18:28.chairman. Their opponents, Leeds, RNA different situation. New
:18:29. > :18:31.investment has already triggered new signings, like Cameron Stewart. The
:18:32. > :18:37.championship table suggests they are right in the play`off race, but the
:18:38. > :18:40.limp FA Cup defeat at Rochdale last Saturday was widely criticised by
:18:41. > :18:49.fans and having steered Leeds to eighth in the table, the demands on
:18:50. > :18:53.bright `` Brian McDermott are relentless. To go there and do that,
:18:54. > :18:57.that is not what we are about, that is an apology more than anything. I
:18:58. > :19:03.have had nothing but supportive. At both Sheffield Wednesday and Leeds
:19:04. > :19:08.United, you will hear about yearning for the Premier League and a return
:19:09. > :19:10.to glory days, but both can appreciate what they have got to
:19:11. > :19:15.know and build for the future. It should be a good one, 12 15 pm.
:19:16. > :19:20.Darts, and Huddersfield's James Wilson is potentially just five sets
:19:21. > :19:25.away from the World Championships semifinal. James, known as the jammy
:19:26. > :19:32.dodger, is up against Alan Norris in the best of nine sets. You can watch
:19:33. > :19:36.it on the BBC red button or catch the highlights on BBC Two. I hope
:19:37. > :19:41.that Paul Hudson is still speaking to me at the Huddersfield signed
:19:42. > :19:45.striker Nakhi Wells. Charlotte, I apologise, because I use one of your
:19:46. > :19:54.lipsticks to write down "4`.5 years" .
:19:55. > :19:57.It is not mine! Now, think of music in Yorkshire and
:19:58. > :20:00.I'm sure brass bands will be near the top of your list.But what about
:20:01. > :20:03.this? Hand bells. Well they've been around
:20:04. > :20:05.for centuries, as Harry found out last night. But was he any good at
:20:06. > :20:12.it?! Ding Dong, Charlotte!
:20:13. > :20:19.The men are a small number of the team in Melbourne, learning how to
:20:20. > :20:27.ring handbells. Australia 1956, but the home of bell`ringing is in
:20:28. > :20:31.Yorkshire, none more so than in Huddersfield. You have the base one
:20:32. > :20:37.there, the tenor in the middle, the treble, and just like a brass band.
:20:38. > :20:41.They were obviously more manoeuvrable in the handbell bands.
:20:42. > :20:47.Where you had them, you had brass bands, and that sort of added to the
:20:48. > :20:53.decline. This is the biggest one, everyone gets impressed by them.
:20:54. > :20:57.About five kilos each. It is the same around the table, larger to
:20:58. > :21:01.smaller. Then to the tribal area, they are smaller bells, and we keep
:21:02. > :21:06.the rhythm. So a lot of the tunes, we keep the rhythm. And it is laid
:21:07. > :21:10.out like a piano, flats and sharps at the top, and the normal keys at
:21:11. > :21:14.the bottom. So you can instantly get used to where they are, they are
:21:15. > :21:17.always in the same place. Where the ladies really have a job one, you
:21:18. > :21:25.can see the bells, they have trouble occurred. They have three octave is
:21:26. > :21:30.`` they have a trip look at. They have notes on one line and higher up
:21:31. > :21:36.the line in music. So how difficult is handbell ringing? I'm going to
:21:37. > :21:42.have a go myself to find out. One, two, three, four.
:21:43. > :22:03.DING. Don't give up the day job!
:22:04. > :22:06.It's 60 years since the first BBC TV weather presenter appeared on our
:22:07. > :22:09.screen. Here at Look North, we've only had regional weather for around
:22:10. > :22:12.three decades. Don't say a word, Hudson.
:22:13. > :22:16.It feels a lot longer. But a lot has changed since the first weather
:22:17. > :22:19.reports here in the '80s, not least in terms of the wardrobe of a
:22:20. > :22:22.certain Paul Hudson. Cathy Booth has been exploring the archives to bring
:22:23. > :22:25.us some highs and lows. In the early days, the regional
:22:26. > :22:32.weather forecast was a modest affair. Although weather pictures
:22:33. > :22:38.were still popular. This winter sky was taken by Mister Robinson. By
:22:39. > :22:43.1988, it was read by a distinguished presenter. Sunny intervals are
:22:44. > :22:52.likely but most of them in western parts. Later, dedicated specialists
:22:53. > :23:00.came in. Remember Alan Darwood and Paula Robinson? Here is a young
:23:01. > :23:05.Darren Bett engaging in some pre`weather banter. But it was all
:23:06. > :23:11.the pro viewed to a man who came to embody Yorkshire weather presenting.
:23:12. > :23:16.`` the Prelude. Here is Paul Hudson.
:23:17. > :23:20.In October 1995, Look North welcomed Paul Hudson. The youngest weather
:23:21. > :23:27.presenter in a country whose trademark jacket and ties became
:23:28. > :23:31.more in distinctive. Lisa Gallagher joined the team in the new
:23:32. > :23:36.millennium. One woman who's going to tell us how cold it is going to get
:23:37. > :23:41.is Lisa. And these days, Keeley, K and Jen also bring a bit of glamour
:23:42. > :23:45.to the weather studio. The graphics are more modern and Paul's wardrobe
:23:46. > :23:50.has been updated, but even with the modern technology, it is sometimes
:23:51. > :23:57.better to hedge your bets. A 50`50 chance of cold developing. In other
:23:58. > :24:02.words, he hasn't got a clue. Has it got any better?
:24:03. > :24:07.So, you had a make over, but we managed to find a couple of those
:24:08. > :24:10.jackets. Those jackets are 20 years old, you can never tell.
:24:11. > :24:19.They fit like a glove. I think they will come back. That banter we saw
:24:20. > :24:26.with Darren was explosive. But the main thing is the forecast accuracy
:24:27. > :24:31.has increased phenomenally. Thank you for putting the 50`50 chance of
:24:32. > :24:35.cold on the end. Shall I show you some weather pictures? The one from
:24:36. > :24:40.20 years ago was exciting. This one is a little bit better, taken this
:24:41. > :24:46.morning, from Harry Robinson. And the next one, this is a lovely sky
:24:47. > :24:51.that was taken in Harrogate, first thing this morning, the beautiful
:24:52. > :24:58.sunlight reflecting on what looks like stratocumulus clouds. Keep the
:24:59. > :25:08.pictures coming in. You them to make you never had that 20 years ago ``
:25:09. > :25:11.you can tweet them to me. Tomorrow looks easily the best day of the
:25:12. > :25:16.weekend, dry, with lots of sunshine around and a ridge of high pressure.
:25:17. > :25:20.Sunday generally dry but a lot of low cloud and fog reluctant to
:25:21. > :25:25.clear. Chile and grey, and this weather system will bring rain in
:25:26. > :25:29.from the West. It has been lovely today but we are looking into the
:25:30. > :25:32.north`west and rain is already in some areas. This weather front will
:25:33. > :25:36.bring rain across all parts of Yorkshire. It is right at the moment
:25:37. > :25:39.in eastern areas but those patchy outbreaks of rain will slip ever
:25:40. > :25:44.south`east was. Not a great deal of rain and later, skies were clear
:25:45. > :25:47.from the north and there will be a widespread frost. Watch out for icy
:25:48. > :25:54.patches, the graters may have to get out first thing in the morning,
:25:55. > :26:03.especially over the hills, as the morning goes on. The sun will rise
:26:04. > :26:07.at 8:20am, setting at 4:09pm. The next high water time, fantastic day
:26:08. > :26:13.across the coast, Scarborough, 12:48pm. Just the chance of the
:26:14. > :26:17.isolated shower in the West but we can almost rule that out. I think
:26:18. > :26:20.there is a lot of fine weather, quite a lot of sunshine, the best of
:26:21. > :26:24.which will be the Vale of York eastwards, eastern parts of South
:26:25. > :26:28.Yorkshire. A bit patchy cloud towards the Pennines but even here,
:26:29. > :26:32.some sunshine at times. A predominantly dry day, a moderate
:26:33. > :26:37.westerly wind and the best weather across the coast, seven Celsius is
:26:38. > :26:46.the high, 45 Fahrenheit. Saturday night, failing rarer event for the
:26:47. > :26:51.winter so far, a widespread frost, and fog on Sunday morning, reluctant
:26:52. > :27:00.to clear, so grey and Chile. The site returns on Monday, highs close
:27:01. > :27:05.to average, and more rain on Tuesday `` the sun returns.
:27:06. > :27:08.That is the focus. You look to 12 when you first started.
:27:09. > :27:14.Ten, probably. Look, the older you get, the more you shrink.
:27:15. > :27:18.I was on stilts, look at that. Have a great weekend, goodbye.
