:00:09.:00:13.

after going swimming in a reservoir near Barnsley have recovered a body.

:00:14.:00:18.

38`year`old Jonathan Pardon, from Huddersfield,

:00:19.:00:20.

had been camping next to Snailsden Reservoir last night.

:00:21.:00:22.

Officers from South and West Yorkshire

:00:23.:00:24.

It was at this beautiful yet secluded spot

:00:25.:00:33.

:00:34.:00:37.

This afternoon, the 38`year`old's body was recovered

:00:38.:00:41.

from the water here at Snailsden Reservoir near Barnsley.

:00:42.:00:44.

It was during the evening that Mr Pardon decided to undress,

:00:45.:00:48.

and then went underneath the water and did not re`emerge.

:00:49.:00:57.

The water here hides strong undercurrents

:00:58.:00:59.

Today, for several hours, a search was carried out

:01:00.:01:05.

including the helicopter, dogs and mounted officers.

:01:06.:01:09.

Police divers recovered Jonathan's body

:01:13.:01:22.

the government in Malaysia to search for a Bradford University graduate

:01:23.:01:25.

Gareth Huntley, whose mother and brother live in West Yorkshire,

:01:26.:01:29.

since going for a walk in the jungle on Tioman.

:01:30.:01:35.

His family called for urgent action to step up the search.

:01:36.:01:38.

Now the Foreign Office have tweeted that 100 people are looking for him,

:01:39.:01:41.

:01:42.:01:47.

The Queen's baton relay came to South Yorkshire today

:01:48.:01:49.

as the countdown continues to the Commonwealth Games.

:01:50.:01:53.

It started in the village of High Bradfield

:01:54.:01:56.

as the Queen's baton relay came to Yorkshire.

:01:57.:02:08.

The crowds turned out in High Bradfield this morning to see

:02:09.:02:11.

the Commonwealth Games version of the Olympic torch.

:02:12.:02:14.

The baton contains a sealed, secret message from the Queen.

:02:15.:02:19.

With the Tour De France coming to the village in a few weeks,

:02:20.:02:25.

it was decided that local cyclists should help carry the baton

:02:26.:02:28.

as it continued its journey through Sheffield.

:02:29.:02:30.

We wanted to come down here to have a look.

:02:31.:02:33.

Just have a look at the baton and have a good time.

:02:34.:02:39.

A typical Yorkshire village showing Sheffield off to its best.

:02:40.:02:44.

Great to see local people getting involved.

:02:45.:02:47.

I liked it because we went to see the Olympic one.

:02:48.:02:50.

I have never seen the Olympic torch or anything to stop so it is good.

:02:51.:02:59.

it is also about getting local people involved.

:03:00.:03:03.

At one sports centre, there was even encouragement

:03:04.:03:06.

from world champion squash player, Nick Matthew.

:03:07.:03:09.

Perhaps these are the stars of the future.

:03:10.:03:21.

In Super League, Bradford Bulls have given themselves

:03:22.:03:23.

a chance of avoiding relegation with victory

:03:24.:03:25.

over their nearest rivals, Wakefield Wildcats.

:03:26.:03:27.

Castleford Tigers, meanwhile, notched up a resounding win

:03:28.:03:31.

And you catch up with all the action on the Super League Show

:03:32.:03:36.

Doncaster boxer Jamie McDonnell was crowned WBA world bantamweight

:03:37.:03:40.

champion after beating Na Rachawat of Thailand with a 10th`round

:03:41.:03:47.

McDonnell was made to work hard for his victory

:03:48.:03:51.

but was always in control and took the title with a superb left hook.

:03:52.:03:56.

and the most successful boxer in the town's history.

:03:57.:04:05.

We'll get the weather now with Keeley Donovan.

:04:06.:04:08.

Some unsettled weather on the cards this week and we're

:04:09.:04:12.

going to start to see that pushing in from the west later on tonight.

:04:13.:04:16.

Out there at the moment, it is largely dry

:04:17.:04:18.

but the cloud will thicken from the West.

:04:19.:04:20.

By the end of night, some patchy and drizzle rain for the hills.

:04:21.:04:24.

Temperatures falling back to 12 or 13 degrees.

:04:25.:04:26.

Perhaps some fine weather in the east to start the day.

:04:27.:04:30.

Very quickly, the cloud will continue to spill eastwards,

:04:31.:04:33.

You can see how that progresses eastwards through the day.

:04:34.:04:39.

Temperatures lifting tomorrow, around 16 degrees,

:04:40.:04:42.

Further ahead, through the week, a lot of cloud, feeling cooler too.

:04:43.:04:48.

Unsettled with showers or longer spells of rain.

:04:49.:04:56.

It was nice while it lasted. Good night.

:04:57.:05:08.

Hope you had a nice weekend, it was a warm and sunny one across central

:05:09.:05:15.

and eastern areas. A different story out west with signs of change. It

:05:16.:05:19.

will be a different week this week with some rain around. Some sunshine

:05:20.:05:25.

too. For a time, it will feel a good deal cooler.

:05:26.:05:30.

There is a complicated cold front producing patchy rain in the west

:05:31.:05:34.

right now. Sharp bursts in the northern half of the UK. A drier

:05:35.:05:39.

night further east. The front will push its
