Hello and welcome to Midlands Today. The headlines tonight: Reports of | :00:00. | :00:10. | |
suspected child abuse in Coventry up by 40% in three years We've had | :00:11. | :00:13. | |
exclusive access to the sochal workers coping with almost 30 cases | :00:14. | :00:18. | |
at one time. One minute you are focused thinking what you are going | :00:19. | :00:21. | |
to ask and what you are going to explore on one visit, then something | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
else will come in and you h`ve to think again. The social workers | :00:26. | :00:32. | |
coping with almost 30 cases at one time. Also tonight: An inquhry's | :00:33. | :00:34. | |
welcomed into allegations that orthodox Muslims plan to take over | :00:35. | :00:38. | |
some Birmingham schools ` 1 governor dismisses the story as a ho`x. After | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
the floods, a month on we'rd back in Upton upon Severn to see how | :00:43. | :00:45. | |
residents are recovering. D`ncing with Wolves ` the French duo firing | :00:46. | :00:55. | |
the Molineux men towards promotion. I practised that Dan is at home in | :00:56. | :01:02. | |
front of the mirror. And we're on a high this week quite literally as | :01:03. | :01:05. | |
high pressure takes charge but settled doesn't necessarily mean | :01:06. | :01:06. | |
sunshine. Find out more latdr. Good evening. The number of reports | :01:07. | :01:18. | |
of suspected of child abuse in Coventry, a city still haunted by | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
the death of four`year`old Daniel Pelka, has increased by 40% in three | :01:22. | :01:28. | |
years. A BBC investigation has revealed that 21,000 calls were made | :01:29. | :01:32. | |
to social services last year. That's an average of 60 calls about | :01:33. | :01:35. | |
children potentially in danger every day of the week. Social workers at | :01:36. | :01:40. | |
Coventry City Council are averaging 29 cases at one time. BBC Coventry | :01:41. | :01:44. | |
and Warwickshire's political reporter Sian Grzseczkyck h`s spent | :01:45. | :01:47. | |
the last two weeks with staff responsible for protecting | :01:48. | :01:57. | |
Coventry's children. This is the front line `` This is the front line | :01:58. | :02:08. | |
of child protection in Coventry and it's busy. During my two wedks here | :02:09. | :02:11. | |
there have been more than 1,600 calls alone. I'm spending the day | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
with Sarb Bhambra, one of the team's senior social workers. It's 8:3 am | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
and she's on emergency duty today, and already has an urgent c`se to go | :02:19. | :02:22. | |
out on. A mum has been attacked by her partner and there are two young | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
children in the home. The rhsk of emotional harm to them from | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
witnessing and hearing what is going on at home is quite high. You can | :02:32. | :02:36. | |
imagine these young children who are in their bedrooms perhaps hdaring | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
the arguments and maybe even mum screaming for help. En routd Sarb | :02:42. | :02:44. | |
decides to head to another worrying case first, the police have | :02:45. | :02:47. | |
discovered a cannabis factory in the home of a young girl, a man's been | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
arrested and released, and Sarb could be walking into a dangerous | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
situation. Potentially we h`ve got the man involved in criminal | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
activity and we don't reallx know what he is capable of. When police | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
went into the home it was to arrest him for believers bodily harm which | :03:05. | :03:09. | |
he was suspected of but when you hear those sorts of things xou do | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
start to think how dangerous is this man? You do not know what ilpact | :03:14. | :03:29. | |
there has been on the children already. We do not know what she is | :03:30. | :03:37. | |
going to find but she goes hnto situations like this on a d`ily | :03:38. | :03:44. | |
basis. What is worrying me hs the vulnerability of the ma'am. We have | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
to make sure she keeps hersdlf on track and keeps her child s`fe. | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
We're back on the road when she gets a call from her boss, an emdrgency's | :03:55. | :04:03. | |
come through. What has come in? A child with some bruising on her | :04:04. | :04:09. | |
legs, a three`year`old, she disclosed to the nursery th`t her | :04:10. | :04:13. | |
mum has hit her. Sarb now mhght have to go out on that emergency but | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
still has to get to her original case first. Staffing is alw`ys an | :04:18. | :04:26. | |
issue. I suppose it does not matter how many staff you have got ten you | :04:27. | :04:31. | |
can never account for what hs going to come in on a particular day. We | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
battle through rush hour tr`ffic but when Sarb arrives, no one is home, | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
it's been a wasted journey `nd she heads back to base. She is now | :04:40. | :04:45. | |
having a chat with her manager to find out if she will be going out | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
with the police on that emergency call. They decide there's no | :04:50. | :04:52. | |
immediate danger and the case can wait till tomorrow. It has been a | :04:53. | :04:57. | |
very bitty they were one thhng is going on and then it is not | :04:58. | :05:03. | |
happening. I was glad we get out to see that family we went out to | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
earlier. That needed a visit to do an assessment and get that family | :05:08. | :05:15. | |
the help they needed at the moment. I was upset about the familx who | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
were not ten, the domestic violence perpetrator, I will have to go there | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
tomorrow. Then I have got in the back of my head that other baby that | :05:26. | :05:30. | |
has got bruises. I will havd to keep that in my head for tomorrow. I m | :05:31. | :05:40. | |
joined now by the deputy le`der of Coventry City Council, Councillor | :05:41. | :05:42. | |
Phil Townshend. Good evening. We saw there how much pressure Sarb was | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
under ` how can that sort of workload be sustainable? Nehther in | :05:47. | :05:51. | |
the short term or definitelx in the long`term it sustainable. As your | :05:52. | :05:58. | |
report explained there have been a number of referral is and wd have to | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
take everyone seriously and hail with it. As far as meeting the needs | :06:04. | :06:12. | |
of that service, or the last month a further ?4 million per year was | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
committed to the children's services budget, that is the temper sent | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
increase. We will be recruiting more social workers and supporting the | :06:22. | :06:27. | |
teams that are already workhng incredibly hard. Child protdction | :06:28. | :06:31. | |
agencies in Coventry were accused of missing opportunities to help Daniel | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
Pelka, murdered by his mothdr and stepfather. How can you properly | :06:35. | :06:36. | |
protect vulnerable children if they have so many cases? It will take a | :06:37. | :06:52. | |
while for all of the staffing levels to be put into this service but | :06:53. | :06:56. | |
already we have put an additional social work team into the rdferral | :06:57. | :07:02. | |
is centre. We have recruited an additional 12 social workers, to | :07:03. | :07:08. | |
practitioners and two managdrs. We are taking this seriously and if you | :07:09. | :07:14. | |
look at the recommendations that came out in the series Case review | :07:15. | :07:20. | |
into Daniel's tragic death. Seven points have been worked on, a tyrant | :07:21. | :07:29. | |
progress. I want to pay tribute to the tremendous work that our social | :07:30. | :07:35. | |
workers do in this city. I appreciate that but can you be sure | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
children in Coventry are safe given the workload of social workdrs? We | :07:41. | :07:46. | |
have got an incredibly commhtted team, there is strong polithcal and | :07:47. | :07:53. | |
managerial oversight, we ard determined to do everything in our | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
power to prevent the sort of tragic occurrence that led to the death of | :07:58. | :08:08. | |
Daniel Pell car. Coming up later in the programme: We meet the star of | :08:09. | :08:11. | |
the stable, Champion hurdle favourite the new 1 ` ahead of the | :08:12. | :08:15. | |
Cheltenham Festival. One of the schools in Birmingham which is | :08:16. | :08:18. | |
alleged to have been targetdd in a plot by orthodox Muslims, h`s told | :08:19. | :08:21. | |
the BBC it welcomes a wider investigation. The supposed plot is | :08:22. | :08:24. | |
known as Operation Trojan Horse A governor at another school, named in | :08:25. | :08:28. | |
a leaked document, has said the whole thing is a hoax. Giles Latcham | :08:29. | :08:33. | |
reports. At the eye of the storm, this primary in East Birmingham is | :08:34. | :08:37. | |
one of the four schools namdd in a leaked letter alleging a conspiracy | :08:38. | :08:43. | |
by orthodox Muslims to take it over. Parents here by and large are | :08:44. | :08:50. | |
bemused or disbelieving. I do not believe it at all. That has got | :08:51. | :08:57. | |
nothing to do with it. This school should be equal faith, we lhve in | :08:58. | :09:00. | |
this country and I do not sde any issues. Genuine or not, the letter | :09:01. | :09:03. | |
boasts of creating disruption in Birmingham schools and incltdes a | :09:04. | :09:06. | |
five point plan to for inst`lling Muslim governors and forcing out | :09:07. | :09:12. | |
head teachers. This building is not going to be refurbished. Balwant | :09:13. | :09:21. | |
Bains filmed for Midlands Today four years ago, was until last November, | :09:22. | :09:25. | |
Head at Saltley School ` he resigned after an Ofsted report described his | :09:26. | :09:28. | |
relationship with the governors as dysfunctional. The 4`page ldaked | :09:29. | :09:34. | |
letter makes reference to this school and its headteacher. They | :09:35. | :09:42. | |
said they were able to play the religion and Indian versus Pakistani | :09:43. | :09:47. | |
card. Waseem Yaqub is chair of governors at an Islamic school | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
nearby. His school is not one of those named ` but he believds the | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
letter to be fake and says ht's the work of those trying to start an | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
anti`Muslim witch hunt. I think this leak is damaging to community | :10:00. | :10:05. | |
cohesion. I think it is a slidgen of rumour and innuendo. Park Vhew WAS | :10:06. | :10:08. | |
mentioned in the letter and Ofsted carried out a snap investig`tion | :10:09. | :10:11. | |
here last week. Also named hn the letter is one of the school's | :10:12. | :10:14. | |
governors Tahir Alam. He's described the letter as a hoax "obviotsly and | :10:15. | :10:17. | |
self`evidently fabricated" `nd intended to discredit him. But this | :10:18. | :10:21. | |
MP thinks it's authentic and claims that attempts by orthodox Mtslims to | :10:22. | :10:24. | |
take over schools in Birmingham have been going on for years. If the | :10:25. | :10:36. | |
community want to do that, want to have a Muslim school it is puite | :10:37. | :10:40. | |
easy. Under current legislation you can set up a free school, why not do | :10:41. | :10:45. | |
that rather than taking over in this way. The BBC spoke to this lan today | :10:46. | :10:53. | |
but he did not want to be interviewed. The governors have put | :10:54. | :10:58. | |
absolutely that he was forcdd from his job. A murder investigation is | :10:59. | :11:06. | |
underway after the body of ` soldier was found at a barracks in | :11:07. | :11:08. | |
Shropshire. Corporal Geoffrdy McNeill was from the 1st Battalion, | :11:09. | :11:11. | |
The Royal Irish Regiment. The 32`year`old was found at Clhve | :11:12. | :11:14. | |
Barracks Tern Hill on Saturday. A 23`year`old serving soldier has been | :11:15. | :11:17. | |
arrested in connection with his death. A jury at a murder trial took | :11:18. | :11:21. | |
to the road today to visit the scene where the teenage victim didd. | :11:22. | :11:23. | |
18`year`old Joshua Ribera, ` musician who performed under the | :11:24. | :11:26. | |
name "Depzman", was stabbed last September near a nightclub hn Selly | :11:27. | :11:30. | |
Oak. Our special corresponddnt Peter Wilson has been following the trial. | :11:31. | :11:36. | |
West Midlands Police sealed off the roads leading to TC's nightclub The | :11:37. | :11:41. | |
jury of six men and six womdn arrived in a coach along with the | :11:42. | :11:47. | |
legal teams and the court staff It was here in September last xear that | :11:48. | :11:50. | |
a promising rapper, artist Joshua Ribera, was fatally stabbed at a | :11:51. | :11:55. | |
party. Before the arrival of the court, we were allowed to fhlm | :11:56. | :12:06. | |
inside. This is weird the p`rty took place. The Judy have alreadx been | :12:07. | :12:13. | |
shown diagrams, documents and CCTV footage of what happened on that | :12:14. | :12:25. | |
night. `` jury. Today is a chance for them to walk The Judge, his | :12:26. | :12:28. | |
honour William Davies QC, briefed the jury. Around and see for | :12:29. | :12:31. | |
themselves. The prosecution team led by James Curtiss QC showed where the | :12:32. | :12:34. | |
fatal attack had taken placd outside the club. The defence QC Patl Lewis | :12:35. | :12:38. | |
was at the crime scene, the defendant 18`year`old Armanh | :12:39. | :12:40. | |
Mitchell waived that right he denies the charge of murder. While these | :12:41. | :12:51. | |
site visits are rare, they `re not unusual. What effectively h`ppens is | :12:52. | :12:55. | |
that Birmingham Crown Court becomes the crime scene for an hour or so. | :12:56. | :13:00. | |
We are not allowed to cross the precinct or film the Judy. `` jury. | :13:01. | :13:14. | |
The court staff and jury returned to the law courts to continue hearing | :13:15. | :13:17. | |
evidence, the trial is expected to last until the end of the month A | :13:18. | :13:21. | |
month ago, some people living in Worcestershire were coping with some | :13:22. | :13:24. | |
of the worst flooding they'd ever seen. The town of Upton upon Severn | :13:25. | :13:28. | |
was virtually cut off as thd river overflowed ` leaving only one road | :13:29. | :13:31. | |
open and dozens of homes under water. Our reporter Ben Sidwell is | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
back to assess life after the floods ` is life getting back to normal, | :13:36. | :13:40. | |
Ben? For the majority here the answer is yes, mainly because of | :13:41. | :13:45. | |
these flood barriers. Less than one month ago the water was still | :13:46. | :13:49. | |
lapping up against this glass but now it is 20 feet below me hn this | :13:50. | :13:54. | |
river. While most people ard remaining dry in the town, there are | :13:55. | :13:59. | |
still some residents leading up and it could be months before they are | :14:00. | :14:04. | |
back in their homes. Travelling here by boat to day it is diffictlt to | :14:05. | :14:08. | |
comprehend that this is the same river from just four weeks `go. From | :14:09. | :14:14. | |
the rescue team `` for the rescue team the last month has been busy. | :14:15. | :14:20. | |
There were 15 families we h`d to move out, sort them out with | :14:21. | :14:25. | |
furniture, we had to move animals, there have been hospital runs, lots | :14:26. | :14:31. | |
of sandbagged deliveries. For me one of the things that sticks ott the | :14:32. | :14:39. | |
travelled here weeks ago is this caravan park behind me, we could | :14:40. | :14:44. | |
only see the tops of the wood. It shows how much damage and | :14:45. | :14:49. | |
destruction has been caused. Many owners have not yet been back. For | :14:50. | :14:55. | |
those who are returning, thd task of cleaning and repairing their pitches | :14:56. | :15:02. | |
can now begin. We could see what was happening. I think expecting to come | :15:03. | :15:09. | |
here to see a load of probldms is what happened. The river rose here, | :15:10. | :15:19. | |
flooding the houses close bx. We will probably be living in this | :15:20. | :15:24. | |
caravan for a couple of months yet. Their warm note is this small | :15:25. | :15:30. | |
caravan, parked outside thehr house which was waist deep in watdr. | :15:31. | :15:39. | |
Because of the weather it h`s not had a chance to dry out. It will be | :15:40. | :15:44. | |
a long time before we can move anything. Back on the river at the | :15:45. | :15:51. | |
trail of destruction left bx the flight is all around us. To give you | :15:52. | :15:57. | |
some idea of how the water has dropped in the last four wedks, take | :15:58. | :16:02. | |
a look at this post. When wd did this in February the water was just | :16:03. | :16:07. | |
a couple of feet from that Lark It is quite incredible. Some rdsidents | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
have been through this many times before. While 40 a few it to be some | :16:13. | :16:19. | |
time before things return to normal, judging by what we saw todax, the | :16:20. | :16:26. | |
river itself already has. One of the big problem is the last timd the | :16:27. | :16:30. | |
flooding team is that three of the four roads into town were ctt off. | :16:31. | :16:36. | |
That really affected businesses What some people want now is a | :16:37. | :16:41. | |
review of the road system so that the next time the waters, the town | :16:42. | :16:45. | |
can remain open and businesses can remain vibrant. Our top story | :16:46. | :16:49. | |
tonight: Reports of suspectdd child abuse in Coventry up by 40% in three | :16:50. | :16:52. | |
years. Your detailed weather forecast to come shortly, also in | :16:53. | :17:00. | |
tonight's programme: The gift of music. Enabling severely disabled | :17:01. | :17:03. | |
musicians to perform, simplx by moving their hands through the air. | :17:04. | :17:13. | |
Time for sport. Dan's here. Starting with football, another great result | :17:14. | :17:18. | |
for Wolves, but some controversy surrounding their latest win. Yes, | :17:19. | :17:22. | |
the League One leaders Wolvds have complained to the Football | :17:23. | :17:25. | |
Association and Walsall aftdr two of their players said they werd | :17:26. | :17:27. | |
racially abused during Saturday s game between the two clubs. Carl | :17:28. | :17:32. | |
Ikeme and George Elokobi sahd they were abused by a small numbdr of | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
Walsall fans as their team won `0. Wolves have now won a club | :17:38. | :17:40. | |
record`equalling eight games in a row and a dash of French fl`ir is | :17:41. | :17:43. | |
firing them back towards thd Championship. Here's Ian Winter The | :17:44. | :17:49. | |
wind of change is blowing through Wolverhampton Wanderers. And this | :17:50. | :17:53. | |
pair of Parisians are playing a big part in the French Revolution at | :17:54. | :18:05. | |
Molineux. Nouha Dicko and B`kary Sako were born in Paris four years | :18:06. | :18:09. | |
apart, and both have family ties to the West Africa Republic of Mali. | :18:10. | :18:13. | |
Now, they're very much part of the Wolves family too. Good fridnds both | :18:14. | :18:24. | |
off and on the pitch, that hs good to see. I am sure they will point to | :18:25. | :18:32. | |
the team behind them and sax we are all in it together. On Saturday | :18:33. | :18:34. | |
away to Walsall, the flying Frenchmen were on top form, as | :18:35. | :18:37. | |
Wolves raced to their eighth straight win. Dicko scored their | :18:38. | :18:41. | |
first two, to make it six goals in seven games since arriving from | :18:42. | :18:44. | |
Wigan, and then his good pal Sacko sealed a 3`0 victory to spark a | :18:45. | :18:51. | |
little celebration. I did not go I would be that famous. It looked to | :18:52. | :18:57. | |
me like you had practised that dance. Yes, yes, I had practised | :18:58. | :19:05. | |
that Dan is at home just in front of the matter! Tomorrow night hf they | :19:06. | :19:14. | |
win again they will set a ndw club record of nine consecutive | :19:15. | :19:18. | |
victories. Do you both belidve you will be celebrating promotion in | :19:19. | :19:24. | |
May? That is what we are working towards, it is not easy but we are | :19:25. | :19:28. | |
working hard every day and we hope that yes, we will win. He h`s made a | :19:29. | :19:36. | |
bright start with 11 goals `nd at his age, if you do as hungrx as | :19:37. | :19:40. | |
years, he has a bright future. So the future's bright, the future s | :19:41. | :19:43. | |
French. With 13 games left to make sure the League One leaders become | :19:44. | :19:48. | |
promotion winners this season. Wolves look to be on course for the | :19:49. | :19:52. | |
Championship next season. And there's a very real fear thdy could | :19:53. | :19:55. | |
be playing local rivals West Bromwich Albion in it next season. | :19:56. | :19:59. | |
Albion were beaten 3`0 at home by Manchester United in the Prdmier | :20:00. | :20:02. | |
League on Saturday. It means the new Head Coach Pepe Mel is still looking | :20:03. | :20:06. | |
for his first win after sevdn games in charge and he's coming under | :20:07. | :20:11. | |
increasing pressure. Stoke City aren't out of relegation trouble | :20:12. | :20:14. | |
either despite fighting back for an important point at Norwich City Jon | :20:15. | :20:17. | |
Walters equalised from the penalty spot for Stoke who are six points | :20:18. | :20:22. | |
clear of the bottom three. But he was later sent off for this | :20:23. | :20:25. | |
challenge and now faces a three match ban. Manager Mark Hughes says | :20:26. | :20:33. | |
he thought the decision was a little harsh. Onto the Cheltenham festival | :20:34. | :20:36. | |
and trainer Nigel Twiston`D`vies says winning tomorrow's Chalpion | :20:37. | :20:39. | |
Hurdle would be the greatest moment of his career. The Cotswold trainer | :20:40. | :20:44. | |
saddles the favourite The Ndw One in the feature race on day one of the | :20:45. | :20:49. | |
Festival. And he says winning would be special because his son Sam will | :20:50. | :21:01. | |
take the ride. So, is The Ndw One also the special one? Judging by the | :21:02. | :21:09. | |
crowds of journalists hanging on the trainer's every word he could well | :21:10. | :21:16. | |
be. He's the star of the st`ble and being favourite for the Chalpion | :21:17. | :21:20. | |
Hurdle ` he could also be the star on day one of the Cheltenhal | :21:21. | :21:29. | |
Festival. He has been descrhbed by his trainer as the best horse he has | :21:30. | :21:35. | |
ever had and bear in mind hd has won two Grand National. And shotld The | :21:36. | :21:39. | |
New One win tomorrow it'll lean even more to his trainer, as his son Sam | :21:40. | :21:46. | |
will take the ride. With sole riding it will be even more enjoymdnt. And | :21:47. | :21:48. | |
that's saying something, relember the last day of the 2011 festival? | :21:49. | :21:51. | |
Twiston Davies won three races including the Gold Cup itself with | :21:52. | :21:55. | |
Imperial Commander. The New One is trained at Nuanton in the Cotswolds. | :21:56. | :21:58. | |
He won at last year's festival, and his preparation this year h`s gone | :21:59. | :22:06. | |
smoothly. He is feeling really good, yes. As good as last xear when | :22:07. | :22:18. | |
he won. Fingers crossed. His main rival is dual champion Hurrhcane Fly | :22:19. | :22:22. | |
from Ireland who has lost jtst one of his last 17 races. It promises to | :22:23. | :22:26. | |
be a vintage race tomorrow. And if it does go to the local hero it ll | :22:27. | :22:30. | |
be quite an evening in the Twiston Davies household. So what c`n we | :22:31. | :22:33. | |
expect this week and where light we find the winners? We'll havd truly | :22:34. | :22:36. | |
competitive world class jump racing. And if finding a winner is `lways | :22:37. | :22:40. | |
hard ` this year it could bd harder still. So much of this season's | :22:41. | :22:44. | |
racing has been on really hdavy ground. The track at Cheltenham will | :22:45. | :22:50. | |
be about perfect jumping ground It's now good in places. So that | :22:51. | :23:02. | |
could really shake the form book up. A group of severely disabled | :23:03. | :23:04. | |
musicians are preparing for their public debut thanks to a "touch | :23:05. | :23:07. | |
free" instrument. It's cold Sunbeam, it means that music can be created | :23:08. | :23:11. | |
simply by moving your hands through the air. Bob Hockenhull reports | :23:12. | :23:14. | |
Mansoor Hussain and Chris Ldes both have muscle wasting diseases and no | :23:15. | :23:19. | |
musical background. And yet next month they'll be performing for the | :23:20. | :23:22. | |
public at Birmingham Conservatoire. They're making music using sensor | :23:23. | :23:25. | |
technology which translates body movement into sounds. Just the | :23:26. | :23:37. | |
mechanics of living, they tdnd to spoil the lot of whatever else you | :23:38. | :23:43. | |
would get involved with. If you can have an hour or two playing around | :23:44. | :23:47. | |
with the sound and other bits of instruments, it is absolutely | :23:48. | :23:55. | |
fantastic. It is a bit like breaking the sensor on a burglar alarm. The | :23:56. | :24:01. | |
closer my hand gets to the sound beam, the higher the note. Lusicians | :24:02. | :24:05. | |
have helped 30 severely dis`bled people to learn how to play using | :24:06. | :24:08. | |
the technology. They've also established links with Heartlands | :24:09. | :24:10. | |
Hospital to identify people such as stroke patients who'll benefit from | :24:11. | :24:13. | |
making music Staff at the Conservatoire believe the ftture | :24:14. | :24:16. | |
potential for this project hs endless, they hope the concdrt on | :24:17. | :24:19. | |
April 11th will be the first of many performed using the ultrasonic | :24:20. | :24:26. | |
technology. One of the things this can do is allow people to dhscover | :24:27. | :24:32. | |
new talents. The joy of mushc`making is something that I, as a mtsician, | :24:33. | :24:37. | |
have always enjoyed doing btt not everyone has that opportunity. These | :24:38. | :24:45. | |
guys are so great, they really, really try and make some be`utiful | :24:46. | :24:59. | |
music. What can we say about the lovely sunshine? More pleasd, | :25:00. | :25:13. | |
Shefali? It would be nice if we had more sunshine but there lies the | :25:14. | :25:24. | |
problem. Yesterday's top values 18 Celsius at Coleshill in | :25:25. | :25:29. | |
Warwickshire. I don't need to tell you how good that felt. Now the high | :25:30. | :25:36. | |
pressure is clinging to as but that does not necessarily mean there will | :25:37. | :25:41. | |
be loads of sunshine. Cloud drifting in along those winds. With the | :25:42. | :25:50. | |
high`pressure things will bd settled and any fronts will be killdd off | :25:51. | :25:55. | |
with activity along them at a minimum. Tonight clear skies and | :25:56. | :26:02. | |
western parts of the region, the cloud will gradually filter | :26:03. | :26:05. | |
westwards. Temperatures will be above freezing for the vast majority | :26:06. | :26:11. | |
of people. Only frost in thd far north of the region. Temper`tures | :26:12. | :26:18. | |
could fall low enough for the touch of frost. Tomorrow will start on | :26:19. | :26:22. | |
that cloudy note but gradually through the day the sunshind will | :26:23. | :26:28. | |
rebel away at the extremitids. Temperatures could rise to 02 | :26:29. | :26:32. | |
Celsius during the afternoon on Tuesday with a light to moddrate | :26:33. | :26:37. | |
easterly wind. Tomorrow night we start with cloudier skies btt we | :26:38. | :26:43. | |
have got a greater potential for some patches of mist or fog on | :26:44. | :26:48. | |
hilltops. The values again `bove freezing. Patchy frosting rtral | :26:49. | :26:57. | |
spots. Wheddon stay overall will be a cloudy day. With the sunshine they | :26:58. | :27:03. | |
live the potential for it to be quite warm peaking at 14 or 15. | :27:04. | :27:14. | |
Tonight's headlines from thd BBC: Reports of suspected child `buse in | :27:15. | :27:20. | |
Coventry up by 40% in three years. That's all for now, goodbye. | :27:21. | :27:27. |
