Good evening - this is Tuesday's Look North. | :00:07. | :00:08. | |
On the programme tonight - fighting for compensation for steelworkers. | :00:09. | :00:10. | |
Hundreds of former coking plant workers and their relatives sue | :00:11. | :00:12. | |
British Steel, claiming they were exposed | :00:13. | :00:13. | |
One minute it was fine and the next minute my husband was dying. It was | :00:14. | :00:26. | |
a big shock. The devices that foil speed cameras; | :00:27. | :00:33. | |
a man who fitted a so-called jammer is fined hundreds | :00:34. | :00:37. | |
of pounds but escapes jail. Returning to the era | :00:38. | :00:39. | |
of new council houses. The first in 30 years | :00:40. | :00:41. | |
are built in Sheffield, One of Yorkshire's last | :00:42. | :00:43. | |
remaining mole-catchers looks The cloud and rain that brought | :00:44. | :00:57. | |
scenes like this will return. A lot of cloud and will feel cooler also. | :00:58. | :01:01. | |
I will be back later with the details. | :01:02. | :01:10. | |
A High Court action is to be taken by lawyers on behalf of hundreds | :01:11. | :01:14. | |
of former steel workers including more than | :01:15. | :01:16. | |
It's claimed their job exposed them to toxic substances in British Steel | :01:17. | :01:23. | |
coking plants dating back to the Second World War. | :01:24. | :01:25. | |
Our Correspondent John Cundy has been speaking to one | :01:26. | :01:29. | |
widow from Killamarsh, who lost her husband to lung cancer | :01:30. | :01:31. | |
after he'd worked at coking plants in South Yorkshire. | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
For years, working at the works behind me. His family are adamant it | :01:37. | :01:45. | |
was the exposure to dust and fumes which were responsible for Terry's | :01:46. | :01:50. | |
death years later. Everything has changed. What we planned, everything | :01:51. | :01:56. | |
has gone. He got to see his grandkids that he loved but didn't | :01:57. | :02:01. | |
get to spend much time with them. My life has completely changed now. You | :02:02. | :02:04. | |
get married and plan your work and what you are going to do. That has | :02:05. | :02:11. | |
gone. It stopped dead instantly. One minute it was fine and the next we | :02:12. | :02:17. | |
are not working and my husband is dying. These conditions they were | :02:18. | :02:20. | |
exposed to four decades until more safeguards were brought in. Lawyer | :02:21. | :02:26. | |
David Johnson who is representing his widow and 325 other Coke | :02:27. | :02:38. | |
workers. I met Terry in this house. I met a number of other claimants. | :02:39. | :02:45. | |
Some are very poorly and on oxygen. I've met a number of individuals | :02:46. | :02:49. | |
that have passed away. One individual I met three days before | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
he died. I feel very passionately about this. These individuals go to | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
work, they expect to be healthy. They go there to earn money and | :02:59. | :03:03. | |
these individuals have conditions through no fault of their own. There | :03:04. | :03:11. | |
is a lot of people out there and they need to know that they can put | :03:12. | :03:17. | |
a claim in. You can get justice if you have lost your husband and they | :03:18. | :03:23. | |
are ill and have not been able to work for how many years. Life is | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
change through a job like that. -- lives are changed. He was on good | :03:29. | :03:34. | |
money but look what happened on the end of it. British Steel told us | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
they are aware of the claims made against them but say while legal | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
action continues, they cannot comment any further at this stage. | :03:44. | :03:48. | |
A road safety charity has called for tougher sentences | :03:49. | :03:50. | |
after a Scarborough man avoided a jail term despite using a speed | :03:51. | :03:53. | |
Ben Kitto had the laser device fitted beneath his number | :03:54. | :03:58. | |
plate so that he was able to travel at up to 90mph | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
Brake says his two month suspended sentence is far too lenient. | :04:04. | :04:09. | |
Caught on camera. A BMW going at speeds of up to 91 miles an hour on | :04:10. | :04:24. | |
the A64 last June but even though it is based past police, officers | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
couldn't recover the speed because it was fitted with a laser jamming | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
device. Discreetly attached to the numberplate. Ben Kitto, seen him in | :04:31. | :04:39. | |
the grey suit, had installed a ?300 Janmaat that rendered his car | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
invisible to police lasers. They are trying to put people above other | :04:44. | :04:51. | |
people. Having this device, you must be aware of the circumstances of | :04:52. | :04:57. | |
using it on the road. You may have to face higher penalties. Laser | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
jammers can be used and motorists are using them illegally to flight | :05:03. | :05:07. | |
the law. It detects a laser beam and decode the signal the four to eight | :05:08. | :05:14. | |
signals by sending back in visible light in reply. Please can take an | :05:15. | :05:21. | |
accurate reading. Andrew Stubbs QC said what Ben Kitto did on the A64 | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
was a serious crime and only narrowly avoided jail because he is | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
a family man with a previous good character. This incident is not | :05:30. | :05:36. | |
isolated. North Yorkshire Police are investigating four other similar | :05:37. | :05:39. | |
cases. The father of two got the device of the Internet knowing what | :05:40. | :05:43. | |
it could do. He expected a stern warning if he was caught using it. | :05:44. | :05:47. | |
He was given a two-month sentence suspended for 12 months and five | :05:48. | :05:53. | |
points on his licence. The punishment some say is not harsh | :05:54. | :05:59. | |
enough. This legal system years giving out lenient sentences which | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
means families are being let down. This isn't acceptable. The judge | :06:04. | :06:07. | |
said Ben Kitto was arrogant and showed disregard for the law and | :06:08. | :06:12. | |
safety of other road users. Traffic officers are being trained in | :06:13. | :06:15. | |
spotting the devices and drivers using them are being warned to | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
destroy them or suffer the consequences. | :06:20. | :06:23. | |
In other news now, and Sheffield City Council is to put | :06:24. | :06:24. | |
up council tax by nearly 5% - an increase | :06:25. | :06:27. | |
which includes a 3% rise specifically to pay for social care. | :06:28. | :06:29. | |
This equates to an extra 87 pence per week for | :06:30. | :06:32. | |
The council said around 225 jobs will be lost | :06:33. | :06:38. | |
as it tries to find extra savings of ?40 million next year. | :06:39. | :06:44. | |
A man who used his car as a weapon to run down a petrol station | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
attendant as he attempted to drive away with ?120 | :06:49. | :06:50. | |
worth of diesel has been jailed for 17 months. | :06:51. | :06:53. | |
30-year-old Scott Dearing drove into Michelle Carr | :06:54. | :06:55. | |
Miss Carr suffered bumps and bruises, | :06:56. | :07:01. | |
Dearing was jailed having previously pleaded guilty to eight offences, | :07:02. | :07:08. | |
Protestors in Sheffield were out for a second day to try and prevent | :07:09. | :07:14. | |
trees from being cut down in the Nether Edge area of the city. | :07:15. | :07:17. | |
They were successful in stopping contractors Amey | :07:18. | :07:19. | |
from felling two trees on Chippinghouse Road. | :07:20. | :07:21. | |
But this afternoon were unable to prevent a third from being | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
chopped down after protestors were threatened with arrest. | :07:26. | :07:29. | |
An anti-fracking protest camp in Ryedale is being investigated - | :07:30. | :07:31. | |
following complaints about noise, mess and parking. | :07:32. | :07:34. | |
Campaigners set up on the site near Kirby Misperton after a company | :07:35. | :07:37. | |
was given the go-ahead to drill for shale gas. | :07:38. | :07:41. | |
The District Council says it may have to take action | :07:42. | :07:43. | |
Later on Look North: A familiar face back at Headingley. | :07:44. | :07:49. | |
Paul Grayson, who scored thousands of runs, returns to coach | :07:50. | :07:52. | |
A drop-in centre in Leeds which supports refugees | :07:53. | :08:06. | |
and asylum seekers says it could be forced to close | :08:07. | :08:09. | |
Meeting Point, which is run by volunteers | :08:10. | :08:13. | |
in Armley, provides hot food, clothing, food parcels and English | :08:14. | :08:16. | |
classes for hundreds of adults and children each year. | :08:17. | :08:25. | |
If funding isn't secured son, organisers say they'll be forced | :08:26. | :08:27. | |
All asylum seekers. Forced to flee their homes in Gambia, Iran and | :08:28. | :08:44. | |
Zimbabwe because of cultural and political oppression. They say they | :08:45. | :08:51. | |
feared for their lives. Every week they come to this drop-in centre. | :08:52. | :08:57. | |
Meeting with dashed Meeting Point provides food, clothes and advice | :08:58. | :09:01. | |
for many in need. It has become their lifeline. It is like we are | :09:02. | :09:11. | |
their relative. When I came here, I didn't know anybody and was lonely. | :09:12. | :09:17. | |
I come here to talk to people, to release the stress in thinking too | :09:18. | :09:25. | |
much. It began 14 years ago when members of Christchurch in Armley | :09:26. | :09:30. | |
responded to a need within their community. Today 150 people use the | :09:31. | :09:37. | |
centre every week. Last year, 3000 hot meals were served and 2000 food | :09:38. | :09:44. | |
parcels handed out. Today, Meeting Point is in crisis. It costs ?60,000 | :09:45. | :09:51. | |
a year to run. In the past it applied to trust the funding that -- | :09:52. | :09:56. | |
but organisers say cutbacks have led to increased competition which has | :09:57. | :10:01. | |
left them squeezed. If the funding runs out, we wouldn't be able to | :10:02. | :10:05. | |
employ their staff to run the project. We would have to close the | :10:06. | :10:10. | |
project and it will be difficult to continue. The impact on that would | :10:11. | :10:15. | |
leave many people who have been coming here for many years, the | :10:16. | :10:19. | |
support, the community, it will leave them feeling alone. Organisers | :10:20. | :10:25. | |
fear without donations, this centre could be forced to shut its doors | :10:26. | :10:27. | |
within six months. The first new council houses for 30 | :10:28. | :10:30. | |
years have been built in Sheffield, and they'll provide | :10:31. | :10:33. | |
1,000 homes in the city. Back in 1980 almost a third | :10:34. | :10:35. | |
of people in England lived in a council house | :10:36. | :10:40. | |
but today that figure In Sheffield the number | :10:41. | :10:44. | |
of council houses has halved. There used to be more than 80,000, | :10:45. | :10:49. | |
now the local authority But with the country facing | :10:50. | :10:52. | |
a shortage of affordable housing, Sheffield is taking action | :10:53. | :10:57. | |
to tackle the problem. Rental houses are ?2 15 a week. The | :10:58. | :11:15. | |
central heating costs ?1 a week. Gracious living within reach. There | :11:16. | :11:21. | |
will be some waiting list. The 1950s and 60s saw hundreds of thousands of | :11:22. | :11:26. | |
council houses built every year. The slums had been cleared. Families | :11:27. | :11:31. | |
were introduced to brand-new housing estates with gardens and indoor | :11:32. | :11:36. | |
toilets. But since the 80s, the number being built has fallen | :11:37. | :11:40. | |
dramatically. Margaret Thatcher's right to buy policies saw an | :11:41. | :11:45. | |
explosion in the number of people buying their homes from local | :11:46. | :11:50. | |
authorities at a huge discount. Today, there are more than 1 million | :11:51. | :11:55. | |
people on waiting lists the council houses in England. That's why here | :11:56. | :11:58. | |
in Sheffield they are now taking action. These are the first new | :11:59. | :12:03. | |
council houses to be built in Sheffield for 30 years. The plan is | :12:04. | :12:08. | |
for the council to provide an extra 1000 homes. Almost 500 of them will | :12:09. | :12:14. | |
be brand-new. These are the first 50. Most have already been let in | :12:15. | :12:17. | |
some of the families have already moved in. Dean and Sarah have four | :12:18. | :12:25. | |
children or with disabilities or health problems. Dean has | :12:26. | :12:28. | |
osteoarthritis and osteoporosis. They got the keys to their new home | :12:29. | :12:37. | |
two weeks ago. It is amazing. Very spacious. We were in a smaller three | :12:38. | :12:43. | |
bedroomed house before. Three boys with various difficulties and | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
disabilities in one small bedroom. This is a four bed. Everything is | :12:48. | :12:51. | |
suitable. We have a flat back garden. Once the adaptations are in, | :12:52. | :13:00. | |
we will be well on our way. Around 40,000 people registers at wanting a | :13:01. | :13:03. | |
council house in Sheffield is so new homes are vital. The need for social | :13:04. | :13:08. | |
housing has never been greater. There was a great need for two and | :13:09. | :13:14. | |
four bedroomed homes. Presumably the people that movie will have a right | :13:15. | :13:21. | |
to buy them in a few. 15 years. In 15 years, they might not be council | :13:22. | :13:26. | |
houses any more. That is true but not everyone wants to own a home. It | :13:27. | :13:31. | |
is not right of everyone. Sheffield's brand-new council houses | :13:32. | :13:34. | |
are now complete. They are putting the finishing touches to the | :13:35. | :13:38. | |
brand-new Street before the final families moving. | :13:39. | :13:48. | |
They're as busy today as they were 200 years ago! | :13:49. | :13:50. | |
We're talking about Yorkshire's canals! | :13:51. | :13:53. | |
Leisure and recreation is the main use for them these days | :13:54. | :13:55. | |
but the floods of December 2015 have left their mark on some | :13:56. | :13:57. | |
In West Yorkshire, engineers are in race to rebuild | :13:58. | :14:02. | |
some walls and paths ahead of the spring tourist | :14:03. | :14:04. | |
season which gets underway in the next few months. | :14:05. | :14:09. | |
The Boxing Day floods of 2015 were among the worst in living memory. | :14:10. | :14:21. | |
They will it is along the Calder Valley, some of the hardest hit. One | :14:22. | :14:25. | |
of the legacies of that event was damage caused to the walls and | :14:26. | :14:30. | |
towpaths of the 200-year-old Rochdale Canal between Selby Bridge | :14:31. | :14:39. | |
and Todd Bowden. This is one of the many problems. The canal wall has | :14:40. | :14:45. | |
sunk in. What has been happening is the water level in the canal has | :14:46. | :14:50. | |
been holding the wall up but you can see behind me, that part has | :14:51. | :14:54. | |
collapsed completely. That is what they are having to rebuild. Before | :14:55. | :14:59. | |
we stabilising works can begin, the canal has to be drained. Specialist | :15:00. | :15:03. | |
contractors are brought in to scoop up any remaining fish left. We put a | :15:04. | :15:10. | |
small current into the water and it did make -- that disables the | :15:11. | :15:14. | |
muscles in the fish. That allows us time to get them and put them in | :15:15. | :15:19. | |
full bins of water and we can move them to the next full section of | :15:20. | :15:24. | |
water. We have had Roach, bream, perch, Pike. The canal and Rivers | :15:25. | :15:31. | |
trust is spending ?1 million on the scheme but dismantling and | :15:32. | :15:36. | |
reconstructing a 200 year canal wall is not without its own difficulties. | :15:37. | :15:41. | |
In some areas, the water is holding up some sections of the walls. The | :15:42. | :15:46. | |
challenge is on these sections. We are so restrictive here. All the | :15:47. | :15:52. | |
bridges are narrow and some are agricultural access bridges. It is | :15:53. | :15:57. | |
all man handled and taking a lot more time than our other sites when | :15:58. | :16:02. | |
we can bring in bigger machines. Yorkshire's canals may be a legacy | :16:03. | :16:07. | |
from a bygone industrial 80s -- age but 200 years on, they still play an | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
important role in the well-being of the communities they serve in terms | :16:13. | :16:16. | |
of leisure and tourism. The work going on here is due to be completed | :16:17. | :16:22. | |
by the middle of March. I hope they get it finished on time otherwise | :16:23. | :16:27. | |
there will be some angry narrow bait -- narrow boat people. | :16:28. | :16:32. | |
Football now and Huddersfield Town head coach David Wagner and Leeds | :16:33. | :16:35. | |
counterpart Garry Monk have been charged with improper conduct | :16:36. | :16:37. | |
In addition, both clubs have been charged with failing | :16:38. | :16:40. | |
to ensure their players conducted themselves in an orderly fashion. | :16:41. | :16:42. | |
The two head coaches clashed near the end | :16:43. | :16:44. | |
of the Terriers' 2-1 win on Sunday, after which the players joined in. | :16:45. | :16:47. | |
The clubs have until Friday evening to respond to the charges. | :16:48. | :16:52. | |
A familiar face will be returning to Headingley this summer as former | :16:53. | :16:55. | |
Yorkshire player Paul Grayson takes charge of the Diamonds for this | :16:56. | :17:01. | |
As well as a successful playing career, he also coached | :17:02. | :17:13. | |
The Diamonds struggled in the inaugural event in 2016, | :17:14. | :17:19. | |
He's here alongside Katie Levick who'll be hoping to be part | :17:20. | :17:22. | |
How has it been back at Headingley? I will be joining them at the middle | :17:23. | :17:35. | |
of July. Hopefully we will have a good campaign. How excited are you | :17:36. | :17:40. | |
about coaching the women's side? It is the first time working with them. | :17:41. | :17:46. | |
We have a strong side up there and I am really enjoying that. They are | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
really good to work with and easier than some of the blokes. As women | :17:50. | :17:58. | |
are so much better. I am enjoying it and we have a talented squad and we | :17:59. | :18:03. | |
are putting that together for this campaign. Katie, what is it like to | :18:04. | :18:08. | |
have him in charge? I imagine it would be excited and great to have | :18:09. | :18:12. | |
someone so involved in their women's game. Hopefully take us to the next | :18:13. | :18:19. | |
level. Why should you be in the team this season? I like to see that my | :18:20. | :18:25. | |
stats speak for themselves. What is the women's cricket like in terms of | :18:26. | :18:34. | |
profile and where it can go? It was highlighted last year. Mark Robinson | :18:35. | :18:38. | |
took on the role of the women's England job. I can see women's | :18:39. | :18:45. | |
cricket going from strength to strength around the world. That is | :18:46. | :18:51. | |
one of the reasons why I have got involved and why I am looking | :18:52. | :18:55. | |
forward to it. Katie, you have been around the squad last season. How do | :18:56. | :19:00. | |
you assess the prospects given the trials of last season? Wait till the | :19:01. | :19:05. | |
squad comes out but it was a great learning experience last year and | :19:06. | :19:10. | |
the only way is up. We can learn a lot from last year and look to | :19:11. | :19:15. | |
progress. With Paul in charge, he will bring a different angle and | :19:16. | :19:17. | |
hopefully it will be great. Paul Cummins you that the successful | :19:18. | :19:21. | |
teaching career. What have you got planned for the ladies to take them | :19:22. | :19:27. | |
through the season? The key to the campaign is starting well will stop | :19:28. | :19:31. | |
they found a nice format the end of the summer but are already at the | :19:32. | :19:35. | |
condition. We must make sure we hit this season running and get some and | :19:36. | :19:42. | |
momentum. Hopefully I can bring my experience. You look at the women's | :19:43. | :19:49. | |
game. Now you watch them, physically, they are in really good | :19:50. | :19:52. | |
conditions and I'll bowling a lot faster and the girls can hit the | :19:53. | :19:58. | |
balls for fours and sixes. In the past, they may have struggled to do | :19:59. | :20:03. | |
that. Many things I can bring with the men's professional game, I can | :20:04. | :20:08. | |
bring matter the women's game also. We wish you well. Good luck for the | :20:09. | :20:12. | |
season, Katie. I hope you get that place in the squad. | :20:13. | :20:16. | |
There are some big hitters in the technology industry, | :20:17. | :20:17. | |
You've got Amazon - they're from Seattle. | :20:18. | :20:20. | |
Google and Apple - both based in California. | :20:21. | :20:24. | |
They are from Sheffield and they've just been listed alongside those big | :20:25. | :20:27. | |
names as one of the most innovative tech companies in the world. | :20:28. | :20:31. | |
They create software that the major film and tv studios use to subtitle | :20:32. | :20:35. | |
James Vincent popped along to have a look. | :20:36. | :20:42. | |
No, I don't know what that means either because ZOO | :20:43. | :20:46. | |
Digital have their office in Sheffield and have been named as one | :20:47. | :20:49. | |
of the most innovative tech companies in the world. | :20:50. | :20:53. | |
Below them on the list is just some other small | :20:54. | :20:55. | |
companies like Microsoft, Sony and IBM. | :20:56. | :20:59. | |
ZOO Digital Works with the BBC on programmes like Silent witness | :21:00. | :21:01. | |
When people are watching Amelia Fox catch another killer in | :21:02. | :21:11. | |
China or Australia, the text at the bottom of the screen is most | :21:12. | :21:14. | |
All the software is designed by ZOO themselves and their captioning and | :21:15. | :21:19. | |
subtitle system is used by broadcasters across the world. | :21:20. | :21:22. | |
It is all put together just off the Sheffield ring road. | :21:23. | :21:25. | |
It is not an obvious place to have an | :21:26. | :21:28. | |
entertainment focused business but one of the great things about being | :21:29. | :21:33. | |
here is we have access to graduates from two great universities that | :21:34. | :21:36. | |
give us a fantastic source of new staff. | :21:37. | :21:39. | |
They work with thousands of translators across the world to | :21:40. | :21:41. | |
transform films and television programmes, making sure people can | :21:42. | :21:43. | |
understand what is being said, make sure the jokes make sense | :21:44. | :21:46. | |
Sheffield, of course, is one of their bases and | :21:47. | :21:51. | |
the other is in London and Los Angeles. | :21:52. | :21:53. | |
Our whole businesses in the additional sector as well as a | :21:54. | :21:59. | |
number of software companies and games companies. | :22:00. | :22:01. | |
It is an exciting time and place to be in Sheffield. | :22:02. | :22:03. | |
Some of the biggest companies in the world are already here. | :22:04. | :22:06. | |
Sheffield universities are turning out high | :22:07. | :22:10. | |
ZOO Digital, you might not have heard of | :22:11. | :22:17. | |
them before, but you've almost certainly seen | :22:18. | :22:18. | |
their work in the entertainment industry. | :22:19. | :22:31. | |
Now it's not your everyday career, but Calderdale's last mole catcher | :22:32. | :22:34. | |
is hoping to put his trade back on the map. | :22:35. | :22:37. | |
Albert Morton has spent half a century catching moles | :22:38. | :22:39. | |
and is looking for an apprentice before he retires. | :22:40. | :22:41. | |
He's in high demand and has hundreds of customers | :22:42. | :22:44. | |
This is a picture of a French mole catcher. 1821. An age old trade and | :22:45. | :23:06. | |
Albert has been at it since 1964. Like the great small catch is that | :23:07. | :23:09. | |
went before him, he can go on forever. He is looking for an | :23:10. | :23:17. | |
apprentice to teach history. One of those old country craft trades that | :23:18. | :23:24. | |
I don't want to die out. I want to show somebody how to do it. Albert | :23:25. | :23:29. | |
says every village used to have a mole catcher but now he's the only | :23:30. | :23:34. | |
one left in Calderdale. Because it is so time-consuming, most pest | :23:35. | :23:36. | |
controllers won't help with this dying trade. Got one. I put these | :23:37. | :23:44. | |
traps in yesterday and I've caught it. Must have caught it first thing | :23:45. | :23:52. | |
this morning. Albert has more than 300 customers ranging from farmers | :23:53. | :23:55. | |
to golf course owners. He uses traps because he thinks they are the most | :23:56. | :24:02. | |
humane way of catching moles. It is so quick. It doesn't realise. If | :24:03. | :24:07. | |
there was any suffering, I wouldn't do it. Moles create an elaborate | :24:08. | :24:11. | |
network of underground titles but the soil they pushed the surface not | :24:12. | :24:16. | |
only cause is a mess but can contaminate food for farm animals. | :24:17. | :24:20. | |
With a wet winter weather comes a lot of work to Albert. The moisture | :24:21. | :24:24. | |
brings the whims to the top of the soil and where the worms go, the | :24:25. | :24:30. | |
moles follow. It is busy but this year is manic. I am near to my sell | :24:31. | :24:37. | |
by date and it's time to be thinking about giving up. I don't just want | :24:38. | :24:43. | |
to stop it. I would prefer to get somebody and teach them how to do it | :24:44. | :24:52. | |
for nothing and so it carries on. Carrying on is just what Albert is | :24:53. | :24:57. | |
struggling with. He hoped that some day soon he will be able to hang up | :24:58. | :25:03. | |
his trowel and leave it for the next generation. | :25:04. | :25:06. | |
Good old Albert. I don't think it would be a job for me and our | :25:07. | :25:12. | |
vegetarian loving weather girl either. | :25:13. | :25:17. | |
It was a bit of a mud pit out there. It has been damp through the morning | :25:18. | :25:25. | |
but it brightened up nicely this afternoon. Let us have a look at | :25:26. | :25:30. | |
some pictures that reflect that. The sunshine was out late morning. We | :25:31. | :25:36. | |
have a cloudier Saltaire in some parts of Yorkshire which stayed | :25:37. | :25:39. | |
cloudy throughout the day. The third picture gets you into the moon for | :25:40. | :25:48. | |
Valentine's Day. Here's a reminder. You can keep your pictures coming | :25:49. | :25:56. | |
in. You can also tweet me. The rain that affected us last night is going | :25:57. | :26:02. | |
to return again overnight tonight and tomorrow. It will open the doors | :26:03. | :26:07. | |
to cooler air. Tomorrow, cold, cloudy and damp with a slum | :26:08. | :26:12. | |
improvement through the afternoon. Here is the pressure chart for | :26:13. | :26:18. | |
Thursday. By Thursday, Friday and the weekend, you will start to feel | :26:19. | :26:21. | |
the effect of that air and we are looking at the risk of some snow in | :26:22. | :26:27. | |
places. Clear spells and breaks in the sky developed. That club of | :26:28. | :26:31. | |
bacon from the East spreading westwards overnight bringing with it | :26:32. | :26:37. | |
some light rain and drizzle. -- that cloud from the East. Temperatures | :26:38. | :26:40. | |
dropping down to three Celsius. There will be a lot of cloud around | :26:41. | :26:55. | |
tomorrow morning. Patchy rain and drizzle and a grey start the day. We | :26:56. | :27:00. | |
have improvement and the rain will fizzle away. The cloud base will | :27:01. | :27:04. | |
lift but there will still be a lot of cloud through the afternoon. It | :27:05. | :27:09. | |
will start to feel chilly with temperatures below average for the | :27:10. | :27:13. | |
time of year getting up to three and five Celsius. Looking further ahead | :27:14. | :27:19. | |
into Thursday and Friday, really starting to feel chilly. | :27:20. | :27:24. | |
Temperatures below freezing by day. Quite a lot of cloud and some | :27:25. | :27:34. | |
flurries possible. Is it normal to keep cats inside when it is Monday | :27:35. | :27:40. | |
-- muddy? It is if you have cream carpets. We will be back with more | :27:41. | :27:46. | |
of that at ten o'clock. Hope you can join us then. | :27:47. | :27:48. |
