:00:18. > :00:22.1,000 apprenticeships in 100 days has beaten its target by 50%. Park
:00:22. > :00:25.is a fantastic setting in Today's announcement comes at a time when
:00:25. > :00:27.youth unemployment across the West Midlands remains one of the biggest
:00:27. > :00:29.issues confronting politicians, with 40,000 18 to 24-year-olds claiming
:00:29. > :00:33.jobseeker's allowance. Which to have your morning prayer. It is
:00:33. > :00:36.outdoors. Everyone is enjoying themselves. The leader of Birmingham
:00:36. > :00:46.City Council welcomed the news of employment for 1,500 young people
:00:46. > :00:47.
:00:47. > :00:52.but admitted more needs to be done. Good afternoon. I have hay fever.
:00:52. > :00:58.What do you recommend? Nathan Fidoe is 23 and in his first week as an
:00:58. > :01:02.apprentice pharmacy technician in Birmingham. I was not getting
:01:02. > :01:07.replies from anyone. This was the first thing I applied for and it was
:01:07. > :01:10.the first job I got as well. His job is part of an ambitious scheme to
:01:10. > :01:12.create 1,000 apprenticeships in Birmingham in just 100 days. It's
:01:13. > :01:17.surpassed expectations. In the past 100 days, 1,459 apprenticeships have
:01:17. > :01:20.been pledged by businesses in Birmingham. The city council say
:01:20. > :01:26.it's a positive way to tackle the continuing problem of youth
:01:26. > :01:30.unemployment. As the project's success was revealed, the city we
:01:30. > :01:37.were told is ambitious. The truth is it needs to be. With 15,000 young
:01:37. > :01:42.people out of work - there are fears of a lost generation. Birmingham
:01:42. > :01:48.cannot move forward if it doesn't put our young people into work. They
:01:48. > :01:55.are the future of Birmingham. This scheme was tailor-made to that
:01:55. > :02:05.ambition. We An added incentive is a grant of up to �4,500 for businesses
:02:05. > :02:07.
:02:07. > :02:10.taking part. Will bring Birmingham forward and grow Birmingham by
:02:10. > :02:16.putting young people into employment. We have retail jobs,
:02:16. > :02:26.engineering jobs. We've had people in the media. Across all sectors and
:02:26. > :02:31.
:02:31. > :02:37.success. At 16 she's got an apprenticeship with a debt advise
:02:37. > :02:41.specialist. We are not going to train someone to do the work we want
:02:41. > :02:47.them to do and then get rid of them after 12 months. We would be wasting
:02:47. > :02:50.our time and our money. Birmingham city council's investing �2 million
:02:50. > :02:52.in the scheme which is also getting Government cash. The plan is it'll
:02:53. > :02:57.continuing indefinitely. Joining us now is Kate Canty, Chair
:02:57. > :03:01.of Birmingham Employment & Skills Board. Good evening. Taken in
:03:01. > :03:05.isolation, this is great news - but there are still a lot of unemployed
:03:05. > :03:15.youngsters out there? There are but there is a lot of work still going
:03:15. > :03:27.
:03:27. > :03:30.on. For instance, we had the East Birmingham jobs fair two weeks ago.
:03:30. > :03:32.We had 2000 young people through the doors that day and in fact, before
:03:32. > :03:35.the doors even opened, there were 150 waiting outside. It wasn't a
:03:35. > :03:37.careers fair, it was a true jobs fair where we had real employers
:03:37. > :03:41.with real jobs, who were absolutely overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of the
:03:41. > :03:44.young people who came in. Talking about these 1500 apprentice hedges
:03:44. > :03:48.we mentioned earlier, how confident are you these will become proper
:03:48. > :03:52.jobs? There are 700 on the system is real jobs. The figure changes on a
:03:52. > :03:56.daily basis is more come in and more go off. As you heard on there,
:03:56. > :03:59.Courtney, who has just started her new job, she is a keen and
:03:59. > :04:02.enthusiastic young lady. Very good news but there is more to be done.
:04:02. > :04:05.What can be done? There is more to be done. We have all the colleges
:04:05. > :04:15.and training providers working hard to make sure that people will be
:04:15. > :04:18.ready. This campaign in particular was fantastic because a lot of
:04:18. > :04:22.smaller employers have got involved. They are really thinking about the
:04:22. > :04:26.future and I think that is quite optimistic with the economy because
:04:26. > :04:29.smaller employers are looking to develop and build their businesses.
:04:30. > :04:33.We've also heard that employers are looking at training, keeping them
:04:33. > :04:36.and hopefully coming back for another. I'm hoping this time next
:04:37. > :04:41.year, those employers will be knocking at the door of the
:04:41. > :04:48.apprenticeship service saying we want more. We're talking about feet
:04:48. > :04:55.-- 1500 but you hope there are more than that? Yes, I do.They're all
:04:55. > :04:58.sorts of criteria funding and rules and regulations. I am aware of jobs
:04:58. > :05:01.being referred to jobs being referred to job centre plus. This is
:05:01. > :05:04.one of the big changes in Birmingham now. Things are not getting lost in
:05:04. > :05:09.the system. They are being captured and we are finding people those
:05:09. > :05:13.jobs. An encouraging story. Coming up later in the programme:
:05:13. > :05:22.The Shropshire farmer who lost 132 cattle to TB tells the Environment
:05:22. > :05:29.Secretary he's been forced to give determine whether gypsies who were
:05:29. > :05:31.forced to leave an illegal camp can return to the area. The travellers
:05:31. > :05:34.have appealed against Solihull Council's decision to refuse
:05:34. > :05:38.permission for two temporary pitches next to a site they occupied for
:05:38. > :05:42.three years. Sarah Falkland has spent the day at the inquiry in
:05:42. > :05:45.Meriden. Sarahm this is the latest in a
:05:45. > :05:52.series of planning wrangles involving the gypsies and the
:05:52. > :05:56.planning authority isn't it? Yes. Would you believe, this is the
:05:56. > :05:59.third planning enquiry relating to this group of gypsies in Meriden.
:05:59. > :06:04.This latest one opened here at the social club this morning. It is part
:06:04. > :06:10.of a four-day hearing and at the end of it, it is all about a piece of
:06:10. > :06:15.land, in fact a makeshift car park, near to the gypsies alongside. The
:06:15. > :06:21.grass has barely grown over this field. The gypsies used to live here
:06:21. > :06:24.until April. But now, all attention is on this patch of land, still in
:06:24. > :06:29.the green belt. This area of hard-core is where the gypsies would
:06:29. > :06:33.like to put two residential caravans for temporary period of 12 months.
:06:33. > :06:39.One of the proposed pitches would be for this woman, who has cerebral
:06:39. > :06:46.palsy. The other four this man's mother. He said the request for 12
:06:46. > :06:49.months planning permission is just until the council get a permanent
:06:49. > :06:53.gypsy site at Damson Lane in Solly hell up and running. But residents
:06:53. > :06:56.are not convinced. They owned the land so they are entitled like the
:06:56. > :07:00.rest of us to put a planning application in. But I think it is an
:07:00. > :07:09.attempt to get a foothold on the land. We've enjoyed the last few
:07:10. > :07:12.months of peace and quiet and we don't want it all to start again.
:07:12. > :07:15.like peace. Their argument will rest firmly on planning technicalities.
:07:15. > :07:18.We are disappointed because it is going to spend a lot of time, tax
:07:18. > :07:25.payers money, examining the same issues which frankly have been done
:07:25. > :07:35.to death. This site floods, particularly in the winter. There
:07:35. > :07:38.are accidents on the narrow, single lane. The inspector has already said
:07:38. > :07:43.that human rights and equality issues will be integral to this
:07:43. > :07:48.case. That could be a sign that she is going to be sympathetic to the
:07:48. > :07:50.gypsies long-standing desire to live here. That is something residents of
:07:50. > :07:55.Meriden are finding difficult to contemplate.
:07:55. > :07:59.Well, it is worth pointing out that the inspector here, Diane Lewis,
:07:59. > :08:03.when she has heard all this evidence can only make recommendations as to
:08:03. > :08:06.what should happen. This case has already been called in by the
:08:06. > :08:11.Minister Eric pickles. It is he who will have the final decision whether
:08:11. > :08:17.to fall in favour of the gypsies or Solly hell Borough Council.
:08:17. > :08:19.-- Solihull. A Romanian national has been jailed for ten years for
:08:20. > :08:22.playing a pivotal role in five robberies at jewellery shops in
:08:22. > :08:26.Birmingham and London. Vasile Bogdan disguised himself as a female
:08:26. > :08:29.customer to gain entrance to the jewellers for the rest of his gang,
:08:29. > :08:32.then stayed outside as a look out while the others used sledgehammers
:08:32. > :08:37.to smash display cabinets. More than �300,000 worth of gold jewellery was
:08:37. > :08:40.seized in the raids. Campaigners fighting plans for
:08:40. > :08:45.12,000 new homes across Warwickshire are threatening legal action if
:08:45. > :08:48.they're given the go-ahead. Half of the homes will be built on farmland
:08:48. > :08:52.that already has planning consent in Warwick, Leamington, Whitnash and
:08:52. > :08:56.Bishops Tachbrook. Land for the remaining 6,000 homes hasn't yet
:08:56. > :09:06.been identified. Protestors say the Warwick District Council plans would
:09:06. > :09:07.
:09:07. > :09:09.result in a suburban sprawl on rural land.
:09:09. > :09:12.Environment Secretary Owen Paterson has been in Shropshire today,
:09:12. > :09:15.talking to a farmer who's quitting the industry because Bovine TB has
:09:16. > :09:18.killed more than 130 of his cattle. Mr Paterson held discussions with
:09:19. > :09:26.farmers about the forthcoming cull of badgers which is designed to
:09:26. > :09:30.control the disease. These cattle have regular TB tests.
:09:30. > :09:36.And just like the rest of the country any that test positive are
:09:36. > :09:42.slaughtered. That's over 130 in just six years. And that's lead this
:09:42. > :09:50.farmer to a conclusion. We are going to wind down the heard and give up
:09:50. > :09:54.completely. I'm giving up because of age to a certain extent and also to
:09:54. > :09:57.bridge... Has been such a problem on this farm, it doesn't give you any
:09:57. > :10:00.encouragement to carry on. Middle Knuck farm in south Shropshire is to
:10:01. > :10:04.all intents and purposes a closed herd. So TB isn't being brought here
:10:04. > :10:11.by infected cattle. Instead it's likely TB spreading from infected
:10:11. > :10:14.badgers in one of the many setts around the farm. In Gloucestshire a
:10:14. > :10:24.government project to track and film badgers. To understand why they seem
:10:24. > :10:25.
:10:25. > :10:32.to be more of a problem on some farms than others. We've lost 133
:10:32. > :10:36.through reactors to TB. The two pilots will go ahead and we look
:10:36. > :10:40.forward to extending them next year. When you come to a farm like this,
:10:40. > :10:43.it is perfectly obvious that we cannot let this disease go on in
:10:43. > :10:51.this uncontrolled manner. We are heading to a contract --
:10:51. > :10:55.catastrophe. Our cattle industry will be decimated. The poor old
:10:55. > :11:00.British taxpayer will be paying out �1 billion for a disease which every
:11:01. > :11:03.other sensible country has under control. The focus continues to be
:11:03. > :11:06.on the trial badger cull in Gloucestershire but right across the
:11:06. > :11:11.Midlands, it's a problem that is having a huge impact on our farmers.
:11:11. > :11:14.And David joins us from South Shropshire now. David, pro-badger
:11:14. > :11:21.groups have been saying the Gloucestershire badger cull may not
:11:21. > :11:26.go ahead, are they right? That's right, Mary. That is what
:11:26. > :11:29.they have been saying on sites like Facebook and Twitter. They say so
:11:29. > :11:38.many farmers have been pulling out of the coal that there are not
:11:38. > :11:41.enough for it to go ahead. Talking to the minister today, he says they
:11:41. > :11:45.are mistaken and he made it clear that the coal in Gloucestershire is
:11:45. > :11:48.very much still on. When is it due to start?
:11:48. > :11:52.That is the big question. We are in a shrinking window of
:11:52. > :11:55.opportunity now. It has to take place for at least six weeks
:11:55. > :11:59.continuously and it has to happen between now and November or
:12:00. > :12:07.December. At the moment, I think we are not likely to see the coal in
:12:07. > :12:12.next few weeks because harvest underway. -- cull. If you are a
:12:12. > :12:16.marksman, you need props to be cleared out of your way. Nothing in
:12:16. > :12:26.the next few weeks, I would have thought but after that, the chances
:12:26. > :12:26.
:12:26. > :12:30.are looking increasingly likely. 5,000 people have signed a petition
:12:30. > :12:32.to save The Public arts centre in West Bromwich - which has had a
:12:32. > :12:35.chequered history and now faces an uncertain future.
:12:35. > :12:38.In 2006, administrators were called in before the gallery even opened,
:12:39. > :12:42.and the government had to provide a �1.6 million bailout. The Public
:12:42. > :12:50.finally opened in 2008, two years behind schedule and �15 million over
:12:50. > :12:53.However, visitor numbers are up. Last year The Public attracted
:12:53. > :12:57.380,000 people. But in May this year Sandwell Council said it was
:12:57. > :12:59.considering a plan to turn most of the The Public into a sixth form
:12:59. > :13:02.college. All this week on his mid-morning
:13:02. > :13:07.programme, BBC WM presenter Adrian Goldberg has been looking at The
:13:07. > :13:11.Public and asking - does it have a sustainable future?
:13:11. > :13:17.The Public in West Brom. One of the Black Country's most controversial
:13:17. > :13:23.buildings, one of it's most expensive. But now, just five years
:13:23. > :13:27.after it opened, there are question marks about its future. Sandwell
:13:28. > :13:31.Council says that because of government cuts it simply cannot
:13:31. > :13:36.afford the �1.4 million annual subsidy it gives to the public. I
:13:36. > :13:42.have choices to make about what other services potentially we will
:13:42. > :13:51.have to cut if we don't look at every aspect of spend that we
:13:51. > :13:55.currently have in the council. One proposal involves the Public being
:13:55. > :14:00.converted to a sixth form college. So if it stops being an Arts Centre,
:14:00. > :14:05.what would be lost? This building is much more than an arts place. We
:14:05. > :14:08.have 120 apprentices. We offer between all of the company is a huge
:14:08. > :14:18.number of work experience opportunities. We are very much
:14:18. > :14:32.
:14:32. > :14:37.about the economic redevelopment of West Bromwich. This area has got a
:14:37. > :14:40.lot of very talented people. This building is the platform for them.
:14:40. > :14:46.Over the past five years, it's redressing that and we should give
:14:46. > :14:52.it a bit longer. And the opening of the nearby new shopping centre has
:14:52. > :14:58.increased footfall in the area. what does the public think? The
:14:58. > :15:05.council have invested an awful lot of money in it. It has brought West
:15:05. > :15:10.Bromwich up-to-date. I think it is a brilliant place. It should
:15:10. > :15:15.definitely stay open. The idea of turning it into a college is stupid.
:15:15. > :15:25.They just built a brand-new college. So signs of popularity for this
:15:25. > :15:31.landmark. With council budgets getting ever tighter, has this come
:15:31. > :15:34.too late? On his programme tomorrow, he will
:15:34. > :15:44.be talking exclusively to the architect of the Public, Will
:15:44. > :15:45.
:15:45. > :15:47.Allsop. This is our top story tonight: 1,500
:15:47. > :15:49.apprenticeships created throughout Birmingham in a hundred days,
:15:49. > :15:59.exceeding expectations. Your detailed weather forecast to
:15:59. > :16:02.
:16:02. > :16:08.come shortly from Shefali. Also in tonight's programme: and we get a
:16:08. > :16:12.birds eye view of preparations for the Shrewsbury show.
:16:12. > :16:17.How being born with half a heart is no barrier to sporting success for
:16:17. > :16:20.12-year-old Sam. Muslims around the world are celebrating the end of the
:16:20. > :16:22.holy month of Ramadan with special services, street processions and a
:16:22. > :16:25.celebratory feast during Eid. In Birmingham, thousands of
:16:25. > :16:35.worshippers attended a special event which a city mosque organised in a
:16:35. > :16:39.
:16:39. > :16:41.local park. 8.30am, Small Heath Park in
:16:41. > :16:44.Birmingham, the start of what muslims anticipate will be a
:16:44. > :16:51.glorious day. This is the most beautiful prayers I have ever been
:16:51. > :16:55.to. It's the end of Ramadan, 30 days of fasting is over. Thousands have
:16:55. > :16:58.come to the park to say Eid prayers. Mosque leaders asked the authorities
:16:58. > :17:02.if they could stage the event in the open CLIP: the tradition of the
:17:02. > :17:07.Prophet Muhammad, his tradition was that he would offer the prayer in an
:17:07. > :17:17.open place, in the ground, not in a mosque. It's great to see everyone
:17:17. > :17:22.coming here. They are praying altogether. The prayers are now
:17:22. > :17:24.underway. They are expected to last half an hour and once they are
:17:24. > :17:31.finished, everyone gathered here will enjoy a family day of
:17:31. > :17:38.celebration. But those celebrations are tinged with sadness. Many here
:17:38. > :17:42.attend Green Lane mosque. One of the elders there was murdered in April.
:17:42. > :17:45.His loss was a great loss to the whole community. With everyone
:17:45. > :17:50.coming together today, it was like the community saying, we've gone
:17:50. > :17:58.through that, we suffered but now we are going to sow some unity. It's
:17:58. > :18:01.fantastic that they are. This park was 135 years old and was once
:18:01. > :18:07.visited by Queen Victoria but it has rarely seen an event on this scale
:18:07. > :18:11.before. The Muslim community hope it will not be the back -- the last.
:18:12. > :18:16.This is just beautiful. I would like to thank the council and the police
:18:16. > :18:26.for their assistance. Once prayers were over, the rest of the day was a
:18:26. > :18:26.
:18:26. > :18:30.chance for worshippers old and young to enjoy themselves.
:18:30. > :18:34.Onto football now and the draw has been made for the second round of
:18:34. > :18:37.the Capital One League Cup. League Two sides Burton Albion and
:18:37. > :18:39.Cheltenham Town have both been paired with Premier League teams.
:18:39. > :18:43.Fulham will visit Burton while Cheltenham travel to West Ham.
:18:43. > :18:47.Aston Villa face Rotherham in a repeat of the first ever final while
:18:47. > :18:50.Walsall, who beat Port Vale in the last round, now take on Stoke City.
:18:50. > :18:53.The Birmingham Brummies speedway team have gone top of the Elite
:18:53. > :18:57.League after victory last night over local rivals Wolverhampton.
:18:57. > :19:00.It was expected to be a tight meeting between the league's top two
:19:00. > :19:05.sides. But Birmingham took full advantage of being at home to win
:19:05. > :19:08.57, 33. They're in action again tonight at Swindon hoping to extend
:19:08. > :19:10.their lead at the top of the division.
:19:10. > :19:14.A 12-year-old swimmer from Staffordshire who was born with only
:19:14. > :19:18.half a heart has won four gold medals at the World Transplant Games
:19:18. > :19:28.in South Africa - breaking two world records in the process.
:19:28. > :19:40.

:19:54. > :19:56.
:19:56. > :20:00.this one for butterfly. And the medals kept coming. Sam was just
:20:00. > :20:05.hours old when he was diagnosed with a rare heart defect which left in
:20:05. > :20:12.too weak to walk. At aged seven, he got the hard that give the menus
:20:13. > :20:19.lease of life. Five years later, and his family were there to cheer him
:20:19. > :20:24.to victory. It is overwhelming and unexpected, the fact he is still
:20:24. > :20:27.here and life. It's a miracle in itself to the fact he has just back
:20:27. > :20:34.from South Africa, representing Great Britain in summing. It's
:20:34. > :20:38.unbelievable. I'm immensely proud of him. Kick, kick to the surface. It
:20:38. > :20:43.helps that Sam 's dad is a swimming coach. He says Sam 's hard work and
:20:43. > :20:49.determination have brought him the results he deserves. Everything he's
:20:49. > :20:55.gone through, he's had to fight for his life, all his life. When he gets

:21:24. > :21:26.Commissioner Mark Up to 50,000 people are expected to visit the
:21:26. > :21:29.two-day Shrewsbury Flower Show, which opens tomorrow.
:21:29. > :21:32.And this year's event will be particularly poignant as it marks
:21:32. > :21:34.the centenary of the birth of Shropshire's most famous gardener,
:21:34. > :21:38.Percy Thrower. Percy was perhaps best known as the
:21:38. > :21:42.BBC Blue Peter gardener, but he was such a well known figure he appeared
:21:42. > :21:45.on the Morecambe and Wise Show, the Benny Hill Show and he was the
:21:45. > :21:49.subject of This is Your Life. He was long-associated with the Shropshire
:21:49. > :21:53.Horticultural Society. Shrewsbury is known as a can of
:21:53. > :21:59.flowers. And down in the Quarry Park preparations are well underway to
:21:59. > :22:04.make sure it lives up to its name. The town's Flower Show is in its
:22:04. > :22:09.126th year and opens tomorrow. highlights depend on what you want.
:22:09. > :22:14.My highlights are the music and the grand finale with a fantastic
:22:14. > :22:17.firework display. I know many people come for the floral exhibits and the
:22:17. > :22:20.critic -- cookery. This garden, in a former stone
:22:20. > :22:23.quarry, was once a massive wartime vegetable plot. It was transformed
:22:23. > :22:33.by this man, the former Blue Peter gardener, broadcaster and author
:22:33. > :22:34.
:22:34. > :22:38.Percy Thrower. We are doing the digging and Percy has got me to dig
:22:38. > :22:41.a big trench. Why? This is the beginning of the gardening year and
:22:41. > :22:44.this is the most important time because we are getting things ready
:22:44. > :22:51.for next year 's crops. He came to Shrewsbury as park superintendent in
:22:51. > :22:55.1946 and was also the show's horticultural advisor. He was then
:22:55. > :22:59.as a trainee at the Royal Gardens. This is his youngest daughter. She's
:22:59. > :23:04.created a show garden in his memory. This year he would have celebrated
:23:04. > :23:09.his 100th birthday. It is part of your life but you forget and you
:23:09. > :23:18.bring it back to the present. It is lovely to go through all the
:23:18. > :23:22.memories. My father was a down to earth person. He loved to help you.
:23:22. > :23:26.He encouraged amateurs. Exhibitors come from all over the country. But
:23:26. > :23:30.this man is from a garden centre closer to home - In Stourport.
:23:30. > :23:39.has been a year of contrasts. It started with unseasonably cold
:23:39. > :23:45.weather. It turned on its head from the second half of April and we've
:23:45. > :23:49.had the busiest end of May and June we've ever had. More than 50,000
:23:49. > :23:52.people are expected tomorrow and Saturday bringing huge revenue to
:23:52. > :23:56.the local economy, particularly since the show is right in the heart
:23:56. > :23:58.of the town centre. Over the years the show organisers have donated
:23:58. > :24:06.millions of pounds to charites and amateur gardening groups. It's
:24:06. > :24:10.something Percy Thrower would have been proud of.
:24:10. > :24:12.I saw him once or twice as a youngster and it was very exciting.
:24:12. > :24:16.BBC Radio Shropshire will be reporting from Shrewsbury Flower
:24:16. > :24:25.Show throughout tomorrow. With all you need to know about travel to the
:24:25. > :24:28.We've got a mixture of conditions which is good for gardening. We've
:24:28. > :24:32.got some rain on the way but not as heavy as it was at the beginning of
:24:32. > :24:36.the week. Also, there is an improvement for the weekend and even
:24:36. > :24:39.into the middle part of next week. For the weekend, we are looking at
:24:39. > :24:46.largely dry days with any rain passing through during the nights.
:24:46. > :24:50.That is provided that the timing on this rain sticks you and doesn't
:24:50. > :24:57.contract --... Some papers have mentioned a mini heatwave by the end
:24:57. > :25:00.of next week but we are airing on the side of caution. In terms of
:25:00. > :25:09.forecasting, that is quite a way off. It is something to look forward
:25:10. > :25:14.to. We have a weakening band of rain coming in from the west. Even though
:25:14. > :25:22.this is going to be a weakening affair, it doesn't mean to say we
:25:22. > :25:26.cannot rule out some heavy bursts. We are enjoying some late sunshine.
:25:26. > :25:30.Any showers from today are going to quickly clear from the north-east.
:25:30. > :25:34.As you can see it is a fairly damp night with some light to moderate
:25:34. > :25:37.bursts on the whole and patchy rain as well. It will dry up from the
:25:37. > :25:45.southwestern corner towards the end of the night. Very warm air with
:25:45. > :25:50.temperatures down to 14 to 16 Celsius. Through the morning, it
:25:50. > :25:53.will start to Brighton and dry with decent spells of sunshine. Because
:25:53. > :25:59.the air is going to be fresher, temperatures would be pegged back to
:25:59. > :26:03.20 to 21 Celsius. We saw 23 today. Tomorrow night, it's a much drier,
:26:03. > :26:07.clearer and cooler night. Temperatures will drop down to 11 to
:26:07. > :26:11.12 Celsius for towns and cities but again, into single figures in rural
:26:11. > :26:15.spots. It is a little bit chilly by them. For Saturday, on the whole, is
:26:15. > :26:21.looking dry with decent spells sunshine. Then we got another front
:26:21. > :26:31.heading in on Saturday night, into the early hours of Sunday morning.
:26:31. > :26:35.
