:00:13. > :00:16.Yorkshire's hospitals under severe pressure.
:00:17. > :00:19.We reveal how one elderly man has had to spend 11 weeks on a ward
:00:20. > :00:23.because there wasn't anywhere else to care for him.
:00:24. > :00:26.With him not being able to get into a care home or a nursing home,
:00:27. > :00:32.he's had to block a bed here at Scarborough Hospital
:00:33. > :00:41.where there are so many people needing these beds.

:00:56. > :01:01.We'll hear about his latest fundraising milestone.
:01:02. > :01:08.And a cold site on the cards with a warning for ice. Saying Chile into
:01:09. > :01:09.tomorrow but milder for Sunday. I will be back later in the programme
:01:10. > :01:16.with all the details. it was forecast and this morning
:01:17. > :01:20.there was a sigh of relief. But now a clean up operation
:01:21. > :01:24.is under way after a tidal surge left properties flooded
:01:25. > :01:26.on the east coast. This afternoon's high tide
:01:27. > :01:29.at around a quarter to five was the one everyone was watching,
:01:30. > :01:31.including Phil Bodmer, who's been in Scarborough
:01:32. > :01:45.for the last 24 hours. Phil, can you tell us what happened
:01:46. > :01:49.this afternoon? Well, I think we can safely say the worst of the weather
:01:50. > :01:54.is over. The tide is now on the way out, but just have a look at the
:01:55. > :01:58.devastation. This is simply tossed aside as that storm surge came over
:01:59. > :02:01.the foreshore Road. You can see the degree and the sand on the
:02:02. > :02:09.carriageway is here. I think it was more spectacular than it was causing
:02:10. > :02:13.damage because were not aware of any major property flooding during the
:02:14. > :02:16.high tide of the storm surge but the waves looked spectacular with lots
:02:17. > :02:28.of people coming out to watch what was happening. It started around...
:02:29. > :02:29.Were having a few problems there. Reaching Phil Bodman so let's move
:02:30. > :02:31.on to our next Tory. Next to a real example of how
:02:32. > :02:34.the winter pressures on the NHS and the crisis in adult social care
:02:35. > :02:37.is impacting on the people A pensioner with dementia has
:02:38. > :02:40.spent nearly three months in hospital in Scarborough
:02:41. > :02:42.because a place at a care home couldn't be found
:02:43. > :02:45.even though the funding It comes as latest figures
:02:46. > :02:49.released by NHS England show that four hospital trusts
:02:50. > :02:51.in our region declared Leeds Teaching and Mid Yorkshire
:02:52. > :02:56.Hospitals Trusts said they were operating at a level three
:02:57. > :03:01.alert every day between January the 3rd and 8th
:03:02. > :03:04.meaning bed shortages, and emergency departments
:03:05. > :03:07.becoming unable to cope. In Harrogate and District,
:03:08. > :03:10.and York Teaching Hospitals, which covers Scarborough,
:03:11. > :03:13.they too experienced serious problems on three and four
:03:14. > :03:16.days during that period. This kind of pressure also
:03:17. > :03:19.impacts on social care and Corinne Wheatley spoke to one
:03:20. > :03:22.couple who've been stuck We're going to
:03:23. > :03:27.Bridlington on Monday. Every day for the last
:03:28. > :03:31.11 weeks, Margaret Lister has been coming here
:03:32. > :03:33.to Scarborough Hospital He has Parkinson's disease
:03:34. > :03:37.and was admitted When he was ready to be
:03:38. > :03:42.discharged, Margaret couldn't find a nursing home that could give
:03:43. > :03:45.him the right kind of care. Because of him not
:03:46. > :03:48.being able to get into a care home or a nursing home,
:03:49. > :03:53.he's had to block a bed here at Scarborough Hospital where there's
:03:54. > :03:58.so many people needing these beds. I just get so aggravated
:03:59. > :04:02.with everything at the moment I can't cope with the
:04:03. > :04:10.situation, it's just out of hand. The trust that runs hospital says it
:04:11. > :04:13.has to make sure patients are discharged safely and are able
:04:14. > :04:18.to recover in the right place. The latest figures on bed
:04:19. > :04:21.blocking sure there were over a thousand patients
:04:22. > :04:25.waiting in hospital Well, we asked North Yorkshire
:04:26. > :04:30.County Council about this. That's the authority responsible
:04:31. > :04:32.for adult social care. They couldn't comment
:04:33. > :04:38.on the specifics of this case, butt they did say that between 2011
:04:39. > :04:40.and 2020, they will have to have saved
:04:41. > :04:44.?174 million from their budget and they also pointed out that they have
:04:45. > :04:47.tried to protect spending in this area to a greater extent than many
:04:48. > :04:50.other councils and that they spent They added that without additional
:04:51. > :04:55.funding for adult social care from the Government, they could see
:04:56. > :04:58.intense pressure And some in the care
:04:59. > :05:11.sector warn it's already We've been warning for at least
:05:12. > :05:14.a decade that pressures are mounting, so if you cut
:05:15. > :05:17.funding on social care, all that does is build
:05:18. > :05:19.pressure in the NHS. As things stand, Martin will be
:05:20. > :05:23.moving to a care home on Monday, nearly 40 miles
:05:24. > :05:24.away near Bridlington. It's an hour and a half by public
:05:25. > :05:27.transport, depriving I know it's a terrible thing to say,
:05:28. > :05:32.but how much longer am I going I married him, for better for worse,
:05:33. > :05:39.for sickness and in health and those are vows
:05:40. > :05:41.that I wish to keep. Well, earlier I spoke
:05:42. > :05:43.to their local MP Robert Goodwill and asked him what he made
:05:44. > :05:47.of the difficulties they've faced. Well, I mean, this is a sort
:05:48. > :05:51.of classic case of bed blocking where someone's in hospital
:05:52. > :05:53.and is in need of discharge and where we couldn't
:05:54. > :05:56.get a good place in a care home that I thought it was about money,
:05:57. > :06:01.but the money is there and finally, thank goodness,
:06:02. > :06:05.we have found a care home in Bridlington which is not perfect
:06:06. > :06:09.because Mrs Lister does not drive, but I know that we hope we can find
:06:10. > :06:13.somewhere a little bit closer. It's not an isolated
:06:14. > :06:15.case though, is it? When you look at the data on
:06:16. > :06:18.so-called bed blocking in hospitals, the wait for a nursing home
:06:19. > :06:21.placement appears to be one of the key contributing factors,
:06:22. > :06:25.so what can be done to tackle it? Well, exactly, that's
:06:26. > :06:26.why the Government are putting more money into social
:06:27. > :06:30.care, why we are trying to get more coordination because previously,
:06:31. > :06:34.the social care sector and the health sector did
:06:35. > :06:37.not talk to each other but we do need to use the money that
:06:38. > :06:41.has been made available to ensure that this does not happen
:06:42. > :06:43.in cases like this. Four hospital trusts in Yorkshire
:06:44. > :06:46.stated major alert at the beginning of January so surely
:06:47. > :06:51.they need more cash, don't they? That's why the Government
:06:52. > :06:54.have announced that there will be another
:06:55. > :06:56.10 billion per year going into the health service by the end
:06:57. > :06:58.of this Parliament. I mean, in this case,
:06:59. > :07:03.the money was available for the care package, it was just that there
:07:04. > :07:06.was not a suitable place available. We've got some absolutely fantastic
:07:07. > :07:08.care homes in Scarborough, some fantastic nursing homes,
:07:09. > :07:11.but the particular needs with Mr Lister did require weren't
:07:12. > :07:15.actually available at that time. You say it's not about money,
:07:16. > :07:17.but North Yorkshire County Council have repeatedly expressed concerns
:07:18. > :07:20.about not having enough money to deal with the pressure
:07:21. > :07:23.on adult social care. And they've asked the Government
:07:24. > :07:25.to give more cash, so do you accept that councils need
:07:26. > :07:29.more money to help Well, the Government have made
:07:30. > :07:33.available ?900 million over two years and, of course, we've given
:07:34. > :07:36.councils more flexibility to increase the council tax should
:07:37. > :07:40.they wish to fund that, so we've given them those tools,
:07:41. > :07:43.but as I say, in this case, It was that there just wasn't a care
:07:44. > :07:47.home available, or the nursing home available, with the type of services
:07:48. > :07:50.that Mr Lister needed. OK, Robert Goodwill,
:07:51. > :07:56.thank you very much for joining us. Will this get
:07:57. > :07:58.the customers flocking in? Find out why these sheep could help
:07:59. > :08:15.a Yorkshire business cope Earlier, we were reporting on the
:08:16. > :08:20.tidal surge affecting the east coast. We lost sound from Phil but
:08:21. > :08:22.we can now go back to him hopefully! Fell, you showed us some devastation
:08:23. > :08:31.that happened there this afternoon. Remind us what the conditions were
:08:32. > :08:35.like? It looked spectacular. Look at the damage here. This is what the
:08:36. > :08:39.water throughout. Toss these bins and seafarers are a side. It looked
:08:40. > :08:43.spectacular but I'm pleased to say that it did not cause any lasting
:08:44. > :08:47.damage a flood defence is pretty much did their job. We saw sand
:08:48. > :08:51.bagging yesterday and those metal shutters which are really have
:08:52. > :08:55.defended properties but lots of people came out to see the
:08:56. > :09:00.spectacular sight so I think people to knight generally in Scarborough
:09:01. > :09:05.are breathing a sigh of relief. Some amazing pictures there. Was it
:09:06. > :09:11.similar to 2013? I don't think it was. I think 2013 was worse than
:09:12. > :09:16.what we saw a few hours ago. The reason is because this tidal surge
:09:17. > :09:21.wasn't quite on the same scale. Of course, the surges caused by a storm
:09:22. > :09:25.which spoils the water into the South Bay a century but it has to
:09:26. > :09:29.coincide with extremely strong winds, a high spring tide and, of
:09:30. > :09:35.course, that did not coincide so that is why the surge perhaps was
:09:36. > :09:38.not as bad as we saw in 2013 when a number of properties were flooded.
:09:39. > :09:46.And where else was effected this afternoon? Whitby of course. The
:09:47. > :09:50.pure ropes are some flooding. We know a number of properties in the
:09:51. > :09:54.harbour area were inundated with water. Not maybe as bad as they
:09:55. > :09:59.perhaps had feared their cousin Whitby around that part of the town
:10:00. > :10:03.is a hotspot because generally once again people in Whitby on the pure
:10:04. > :10:07.road will be breathing a sigh of relief as well. Generally, there is
:10:08. > :10:13.a general feeling that we perhaps got away with it. OK, fell bottom
:10:14. > :10:14.live in Scarborough for us today, battling with the elements, thank
:10:15. > :10:14.you very much. The Shadow Minister in charge
:10:15. > :10:16.of Labour's national devolution policy has called for a single mayor
:10:17. > :10:19.to be elected to represent Jon Trickett, who's the MP
:10:20. > :10:22.for Hemsworth, says unless radical
:10:23. > :10:24.action is taken now on the tens of millions
:10:25. > :10:27.of pounds of extra cash But it's causing a massive political
:10:28. > :10:32.row because some parts of Yorkshire had already agreed
:10:33. > :10:35.a deal, and the Tories say that having one mayor for the region
:10:36. > :10:38.would have to be legislated for Our political editor Len Tingle
:10:39. > :10:46.tries to unravel what's happening. Behind the closed doors of this
:10:47. > :10:49.trade union centre in Wakefield today, Labour councillors gathered
:10:50. > :10:53.to hear the party's most influential figure on devolution add his voice
:10:54. > :10:58.to the pressure to see the whole of Yorkshire form a single
:10:59. > :11:01.region with just one We all agreed, something
:11:02. > :11:06.that has to happen. Now, exactly how we do it, I think
:11:07. > :11:12.we're beginning to get towards a solution and
:11:13. > :11:13.I've put my idea forward. It a personal idea and I think
:11:14. > :11:17.it's won people to it. Other people said it
:11:18. > :11:19.was already their idea and one or two people have said
:11:20. > :11:22.we need to know more details. Look, we've started
:11:23. > :11:24.a debate and I want to hear the views of ordinary Yorkshire
:11:25. > :11:27.folk as well, by the way. Devolution for South
:11:28. > :11:31.Yorkshire, the Sheffield city region run by an elected mayor
:11:32. > :11:34.with extra powers and money has already been signed and was due
:11:35. > :11:37.to be launched in four months' time. But last week, it was postponed
:11:38. > :11:40.for a year so does I don't think the Sheffield city
:11:41. > :11:50.region is dead at all. This is about an overarching deal
:11:51. > :11:53.that can actually bring more It's a Yorkshire voice that we're
:11:54. > :11:58.talking about here today and therefore we're behind it,
:11:59. > :12:00.but I'm here for Doncaster, making sure the residents are supported
:12:01. > :12:02.and businesses because that's how we will continue
:12:03. > :12:04.growing that economy. Well, the Government
:12:05. > :12:08.appears to be quite clear. If negotiations start again,
:12:09. > :12:14.devolution, whatever form it takes in Yorkshire, could be delayed
:12:15. > :12:18.for years if it happens at all. If they choose to walk
:12:19. > :12:20.away from this deal, as has happened in the case
:12:21. > :12:23.of the leaders in the north-east of England, then the Government will be
:12:24. > :12:26.forced to take that deal off the table and then we have to start
:12:27. > :12:29.the whole thing from scratch, if indeed we have any appetite to do
:12:30. > :12:32.that having gone ?1 billion of funding
:12:33. > :12:36.for South Yorkshire. I say to South Yorkshire leaders,
:12:37. > :12:39.do not turn your back on that. Food for thought as half a dozen
:12:40. > :12:42.other newly formed devolved regions across the country prepare
:12:43. > :12:44.to elect their first executive mayors later this year and to gain
:12:45. > :13:01.the promised extra cash One in every hole of Yorkshire, will
:13:02. > :13:05.it happen? Never rule it out but remember it from the Government's
:13:06. > :13:08.point of view, it's rather unlikely. These are two separate things. A
:13:09. > :13:13.whole Yorkshire deal, that would be a region that would be politically
:13:14. > :13:17.very powerful as the previous Labour governments fault when they decided
:13:18. > :13:20.they wanted to set up regional assemblies. But would it do the
:13:21. > :13:23.trick in the modern form of devolution? That is meant to be
:13:24. > :13:26.similar clusters of local councils coming together with similar sorts
:13:27. > :13:29.of economies that can help each other out and improve their
:13:30. > :13:32.economies. It whole Yorkshire deal would not do that so it unlikely
:13:33. > :13:35.that the Government would allow it to go ahead. Thank you. Just to mark
:13:36. > :13:39.your cart, there'll be more about devolution

:14:27. > :14:31.related to Brexit. Harrison Spinks has invested
:14:32. > :14:34.in a flock of Wensleydales and is intending to use the wool
:14:35. > :14:37.inside its mattresses. It's just one of the natural fibres
:14:38. > :14:40.the firm produce themselves, and it means they can source less
:14:41. > :14:45.from abroad and avoid rising prices. Here's our business
:14:46. > :14:48.correspondent Danni Hewson. These are Wensleydale sheep,
:14:49. > :14:52.bred for their fleeces. They first appeared in Yorkshire
:14:53. > :14:56.in the early 1800s. Ironically, they've become
:14:57. > :14:58.a rare sight as modern demands
:14:59. > :15:00.have changed. Well, farmers nowadays are
:15:01. > :15:03.concentrating on growing their sheep for the meat carcass,
:15:04. > :15:06.whereas these are a wool breed primarily, so a lot
:15:07. > :15:09.less farmers want to grow sheep for their wool because there's
:15:10. > :15:12.not a lot of money But there is money in quality
:15:13. > :15:16.craftsmanship and bed maker Harrison Spinks has seen demand
:15:17. > :15:19.for their natural fibre mattresses But with the pound still subdued,
:15:20. > :15:25.buying materials is Rearing their own sheep is just one
:15:26. > :15:30.strategy they've brought in to For me, it's about the
:15:31. > :15:39.confidence of the consumer. In terms of what we can do
:15:40. > :15:42.as a business ourselves, we can only work with
:15:43. > :15:45.the issues that we've got. We can tackle those high pressure
:15:46. > :15:49.price points by doing as much Sourcing locally has also been
:15:50. > :15:57.a great story for customers. Either we grow them
:15:58. > :16:00.ourselves, or we buy them from farmers around
:16:01. > :16:03.that area so the whole story is to do
:16:04. > :16:09.with the localised filling, so we have everything within ten
:16:10. > :16:14.miles of the factory. Success with other home-grown
:16:15. > :16:17.fibres like hemp and flax were the catalysts
:16:18. > :16:19.for this experiment. If successful, expect this rare

:16:23. > :16:33.weekend after the FA Cup break. Surely we're going to get
:16:34. > :16:36.at least one team promoted There are four of our teams
:16:37. > :16:40.in the top eight right now. And one of them, Leeds United
:16:41. > :16:42.is at home tonight in what you might call a
:16:43. > :16:45.six pointer against Derby. Paul Ogden is there
:16:46. > :16:57.at Elland Road for us. Yes. You can certainly say that
:16:58. > :17:00.though there are freezing temperatures here at Elland Road
:17:01. > :17:06.tonight, the championship play-off race is already hotting up in the
:17:07. > :17:11.January. Leeds United are really in for. They have 14 of their last
:17:12. > :17:14.victors but Derby, tonight's opponents, have also turned things
:17:15. > :17:19.around after a difficult start to the season. Steve McClaren, their
:17:20. > :17:23.manager, seven wins on the browse through November and December, Derby
:17:24. > :17:26.up to seventh in the table ahead of what is an intriguing prospect here
:17:27. > :17:29.tonight. You can see this being a dress rehearsal for a play-off
:17:30. > :17:31.semifinal and though Garry Monk might deny it, there is a lot at
:17:32. > :17:32.stake here tonight already. I think we sit here every
:17:33. > :17:36.week and say, this is We've been saying it for months now,
:17:37. > :17:41.so they're all big games. Nothing is going to define
:17:42. > :17:44.the season, but what And an important
:17:45. > :17:47.three points for both teams, so we have to
:17:48. > :17:49.fight as hard as we can, put our best football

:18:12. > :18:14.say nothing of Barnsley's intriguing trip to Fulham. We can look forward
:18:15. > :18:18.to it all with our guest here tonight which is the chief football
:18:19. > :18:21.writer of the Yorkshire Post, Richard Sutcliffe, who misses
:18:22. > :18:25.nothing in Yorkshire football. Briefly, tonight's prospectors
:18:26. > :18:30.forage are concerned? It is a huge Uber reads. I think Derby are one or
:18:31. > :18:36.two teams are going to make a huge bridge for the play-off. They would
:18:37. > :18:39.go very far clear. Leads and Derby already fancying themselves rarely
:18:40. > :18:42.the play-offs but so are Sheffield Wednesday and Huddersfield town? It
:18:43. > :18:46.brilliant match look forward to a Telstra. Absently. I'm covering that
:18:47. > :18:49.game as well and it will be a cracker. It will tell us a lot about
:18:50. > :18:55.both sides amending both of them can stay in the race for the play-offs
:18:56. > :19:01.but tomorrow will be a big eyed. Today, very important date worst
:19:02. > :19:06.Wednesday who have signed Barnsley's striker. He has been a big part of
:19:07. > :19:14.their success this season and last but what a bargain. They will have
:19:15. > :19:18.to take some stopping. Do you think Barnsley will break up
:19:19. > :19:21.now? I hope not. They did not last season and they got the success in
:19:22. > :19:25.the play-offs through a lot of low needs a survey had to change the
:19:26. > :19:27.side this summer. They've done a brilliant job at idols who either
:19:28. > :19:32.can't do it again. You certainly would have devoured all the stops to
:19:33. > :19:36.keep them going. Richard, thank you. Enjoy the game tonight. Really
:19:37. > :19:41.positive news I think to finish on as well for the moment and that is
:19:42. > :19:44.that Paul worn, is going to stay on as caretaker manager to try and get
:19:45. > :19:45.Rotherham United out of relegation trouble. Let's hope he can between
:19:46. > :19:47.now and the end of the season. Meanwhile the Rugby Football League
:19:48. > :19:50.has agreed a deal that will see a new club set up in Bradford
:19:51. > :19:53.for the start of the season. The old Bradford Bulls
:19:54. > :19:55.was liquidated earlier this month. Four bids to revive
:19:56. > :19:57.the club were received The new club will remain
:19:58. > :20:00.in the Kingstone Press Championship and play at Odsal,
:20:01. > :20:03.but will start the new season Now the Yorkshire Wolds
:20:04. > :20:09.are one of the hidden gems of this part of the world
:20:10. > :20:12.and tonight a much bigger audience will be able to enjoy
:20:13. > :20:15.the delights of the trail which runs from Hessle
:20:16. > :20:17.on the Humber Estuary The Yorkshire Wolds Way
:20:18. > :20:21.is a two-part series presented by Paul Rose,
:20:22. > :20:24.a man who can be found diving in the world's deepest oceans
:20:25. > :20:27.or leading expeditions in some but first a taste of
:20:28. > :20:35.tonight's programme. I'm taking a hike
:20:36. > :20:38.through one of the least travelled parts of the UK,
:20:39. > :20:41.a land of big skies This is the Yorkshire Wolds,
:20:42. > :20:47.a swathe of rolling chalk hills in the eastern part
:20:48. > :20:51.of God's own county. It's a tranquil corner
:20:52. > :20:53.of England that's well off But I've heard the Wolds
:20:54. > :21:00.are full of surprises. Paul, we've just been
:21:01. > :21:01.watching those images. Why did you choose
:21:02. > :21:06.the Yorkshire Wolds? Well, I think it's a place
:21:07. > :21:08.that's often overlooked. It is overlooked by
:21:09. > :21:10.the Pennines and the Yorkshire moors and this thing
:21:11. > :21:13.that we all have, we want to go to We forget about these
:21:14. > :21:18.home-grown treasures so Any standout in particular
:21:19. > :21:25.that you found? The standout moments for me
:21:26. > :21:28.was of course crossing the Humber. That's how we started,
:21:29. > :21:30.in the old way, rolling The Humber Bridge,
:21:31. > :21:33.who can forget how Moving in a way when you
:21:34. > :21:38.think of all those men I love all that and then,
:21:39. > :21:42.of course, the surprises. Around every corner,
:21:43. > :21:44.there is a surprise. There's a lovely dry valley,
:21:45. > :21:47.or a vineyard or, you know what? It hard to pick a favourite,
:21:48. > :21:52.but it has to be I mean, have you ever
:21:53. > :21:55.ridden a Penny Farthing? Most people just go
:21:56. > :21:59.to the museum and see them, They don't actually get
:22:00. > :22:02.on top of the thing. I did, and it was one
:22:03. > :22:07.of the most gripping things. I mean, here's a man who's
:22:08. > :22:09.worked in Antarctica, I've dived under the North
:22:10. > :22:11.Pole, I've done all these challenging things and that
:22:12. > :22:14.morning, I woke up in the bed and breakfast and I was bolt
:22:15. > :22:17.upright in the bed going, I'm going to write
:22:18. > :22:19.a Penny Farthing today! Just take you back to
:22:20. > :22:22.the Yorkshire Wolds, which obviously is on tonight at 7:30pm,
:22:23. > :22:26.do you have to be an Uber hiker? You can do the whole thing
:22:27. > :22:32.in a week or do it slowly and do it in ten days, it's so beautiful
:22:33. > :22:36.and the joy of it is it's incredibly beautiful for a little bit
:22:37. > :22:39.of effort, you get massive awards so for me, normally doing all these
:22:40. > :22:42.big physical and mental challenges things for this was
:22:43. > :22:44.complete freedom and joy. And you can see the Yorkshire Wolds
:22:45. > :22:56.Way on BBC One tonight at 7.30pm. How did you celebrate
:22:57. > :22:59.your last birthday? Well, one Rotherham man marked
:23:00. > :23:02.turning 75 by running Ray Matthews was aiming
:23:03. > :23:05.to raise money for charity and today he presented his final
:23:06. > :23:19.donation to a local special school. After running nearly 2000 miles, Ray
:23:20. > :23:24.crossed the finish line at Snyman school in September. Today, he is
:23:25. > :23:29.back to beat the people who inspired his challenge. What I've seen since
:23:30. > :23:33.I've been involved with the school is just amazing. These children, all
:23:34. > :23:38.I ever see when I walk in here is joy on your faces. The only thing
:23:39. > :23:46.that's a bit disappointing as far as I'm concerned is that this amount
:23:47. > :23:51.isn't ?75,000. They may be disappointed with the total, nearly
:23:52. > :23:55.?30,000, but no one else is. I don't know how he's done it. I wouldn't be
:23:56. > :24:00.able to do it. I don't know how he's done it. I really grateful for what
:24:01. > :24:08.he's done. A big massive thank you. And I just want to... He's like a
:24:09. > :24:13.big zero. I cannot thank him enough for the money. And I wish I could be
:24:14. > :24:20.like him. But not doing all those 75 marathons though! The money raised
:24:21. > :24:25.will help pay for new outdoor play equipment for pupils with
:24:26. > :24:29.disabilities. Today, Ray seemed overwhelmed by the gratitude and the
:24:30. > :24:35.attention. It's incredible but what's happening is happening to me.
:24:36. > :24:40.It's not me, if you know what I mean. I'm just this guy that goes
:24:41. > :24:46.out and runs marathons. But this is totally in another league, isn't it?
:24:47. > :24:51.I think Ray is amazing. We can't thank you enough.
:24:52. > :24:55.Wonderful. You hear to that. You could follow in his footsteps for
:24:56. > :25:07.sports relief! The surge was right last night. Yes,
:25:08. > :25:10.and the risk has now moved away. The tides were at their highest this
:25:11. > :25:14.evening and the storm surge will now move away and of course, the winds
:25:15. > :25:18.are also easing down at the moment. Living forward with the forecast, we
:25:19. > :25:22.sadly for cows with a warning of ice. We have seen some coastal
:25:23. > :25:25.showers today and there is still a little lying snow from last night
:25:26. > :25:31.and we could get a little fresh milk across the Peak District this coming
:25:32. > :25:34.night. By Sunday, after a very chilly start, a chilly day tomorrow,
:25:35. > :25:39.temperatures at two or three degrees, it will become much milder
:25:40. > :25:44.by Sunday. This moving in from the West Prce apps preceded by an little
:25:45. > :25:48.bit of snow but that'll be a transient thing and then it will be
:25:49. > :25:51.milder through Sunday was less cold, should I say! You can say on the
:25:52. > :25:55.satellite picture the shower clouds pushing down from the north. They
:25:56. > :25:59.have been affecting the coastline through today and we will see some
:26:00. > :26:02.more overnight. Otherwise, mostly dry and clear that you will notice a
:26:03. > :26:06.few sleet and snow shower was making their way across the Peak District
:26:07. > :26:12.and into part of South Yorkshire. It widespread frost that will quickly
:26:13. > :26:15.become frosty this evening. By the end of the night, temperatures lower
:26:16. > :26:19.than this out in the countryside. The sun will rise in the morning at
:26:20. > :26:22.70 minute pass eight setting again as the only quarter past four in the
:26:23. > :26:29.afternoon. Here are the high water lights. So tomorrow, a widespread
:26:30. > :26:32.frost. Icy stretches and we will continue to see some showers being
:26:33. > :26:38.pushed in a long because. Still a brisk wind though not as windy as
:26:39. > :26:41.today. Winds lighter elsewhere, plenty of sunshine, if crisp, cold
:26:42. > :26:46.winters's date that temperature is really struggling. It will still
:26:47. > :26:50.feel very cold across the causeway. Breezy conditions with temperatures
:26:51. > :26:56.struggling at three or 4 degrees. Around two, three or 4 degrees in
:26:57. > :26:59.Llandysul a very cold day too, but fine and dry. There will be a good
:27:00. > :27:06.deal of sunshine. Apart from perhaps the odd hostels shower. Living
:27:07. > :27:10.through Saturday evening, clad amounts will increase every Sunday,
:27:11. > :27:13.our picks of rain and drizzle will increase. It may just be that as
:27:14. > :27:17.that ring initially approach is from the west, it could bring a little
:27:18. > :27:21.bit of sleet or snow right to the very highest peaks but it does not
:27:22. > :27:26.look like a pleasant day on Sunday. Lots of clouds, rain, drizzle, but
:27:27. > :27:29.it will be less cold. To start next week, it does look like there will
:27:30. > :27:33.be a lot of cloud and a bit of drizzle on the hills.
:27:34. > :27:38.And of course a half marathon in Europe on Sundays so I think there
:27:39. > :27:42.will be some rain. We will update you with the latest in Scarbrough in
:27:43. > :27:44.our late bulletin. Thank you very much for watching and
:27:45. > :27:48.have a good weekend.
