The headlines tonight: A newborn baby who died from an infection | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
caught at birth could have survived with earlier intervention, | :00:08. | :00:10. | |
We've fought for her, haven't we? We fought for the truth and ultimately | :00:11. | :00:24. | |
she could have been saved. We'll be looking at the implications | :00:25. | :00:26. | |
of today's inquest verdict. Also tonight: Sacked for complaining | :00:27. | :00:28. | |
about children being shown a disturbing video - | :00:29. | :00:31. | |
a teaching assistant wins her claim They told me that the school was no | :00:32. | :00:43. | |
longer a suitable place for me to work at because I was uncomfortable | :00:44. | :00:51. | |
with the curriculum. From dazzling daffodils to beautiful | :00:52. | :00:55. | |
blossoms, find out how this year's spring display has been turning | :00:56. | :00:57. | |
heads. Memories from 40 years | :00:58. | :00:58. | |
ago as Cliff Richard wowed his teenage fans, | :00:59. | :01:00. | |
making a film by the And in spite of incoming | :01:01. | :01:03. | |
cloud today, most places Even shinier by the | :01:04. | :01:06. | |
weekend and warmer too. Her death was "preventable" - | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
that's the conclusion of the Shropshire coroner | :01:10. | :01:26. | |
at the inquest of a newborn baby who died from an | :01:27. | :01:28. | |
infection caught at birth. Pippa Griffiths was born | :01:29. | :01:31. | |
in April last year, but less than 24 hours later, | :01:32. | :01:35. | |
she was seriously ill Today, the coroner ruled | :01:36. | :01:37. | |
that she could have survived if she'd been treated sooner | :01:38. | :01:49. | |
by medical staff. Our Health Correspondent, | :01:50. | :01:51. | |
Michele Paduano reports. Maybe Pippa was born perfectly | :01:52. | :02:03. | |
healthy but she had an infection and couldn't be saved. The hospital were | :02:04. | :02:12. | |
phoned twice by their worried mother but she was reassured. | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
We have fought for her, we have fought for the truth and ultimately | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
she could have been saved. Do your job and be honest. Put your | :02:22. | :02:28. | |
hands up and make mistakes, that's what we feel. We've gone through | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
hell and for people not to be honest with us is just another cheque when | :02:33. | :02:38. | |
you are done, really. At the inquest, the hospital | :02:39. | :02:55. | |
admitted it had failed... Midwife Claire Robinson, seen here | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
with red hair, denied she had been told about brown mucus in the later | :03:00. | :03:05. | |
called but it was the earlier call that would have saved Pippa's life. | :03:06. | :03:12. | |
The coroner said baby Pippa's death was preventable if a systematic | :03:13. | :03:19. | |
inquiry had taken place when Mrs Griffiths phoned. He said it may not | :03:20. | :03:26. | |
be any comfort that lessons had been learned. Have they? The trust did | :03:27. | :03:30. | |
not declare this as a serious incident and there was to be no | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
inquest. They said today that the death did not appear to meet the | :03:36. | :03:46. | |
criteria. The trust apologised for not providing appropriate care but | :03:47. | :03:48. | |
said appropriate changes had been made. No inquest was offered at the | :03:49. | :03:54. | |
time of death and the court learned that without the parents' tenacity | :03:55. | :03:59. | |
in seeking an inquest, they would not have led to truth. | :04:00. | :04:08. | |
I think it is shocking. If I hadn't had pushed for this it would have | :04:09. | :04:17. | |
gone. How many other teams would it | :04:18. | :04:23. | |
happen? Mrs Griffiths is expecting again but | :04:24. | :04:32. | |
is terrified and hopes nothing can go wrong. | :04:33. | :04:34. | |
And Michele joins us now from outside the Coroner's Court. | :04:35. | :04:36. | |
Baby Pippa was actually born at home and there is a national drive to | :04:37. | :04:48. | |
have more babies born at home and clearly the communications have to | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
be good. There is a national debate about whether all mums should be | :04:53. | :04:58. | |
screened for strep B. At the moment it is just those at high risk. Pippa | :04:59. | :05:05. | |
would have survived had that happened. They were reassured that | :05:06. | :05:18. | |
lessons had been learned after a previous case. I'm told there are | :05:19. | :05:23. | |
other cases around and one that could go to inquest. | :05:24. | :05:25. | |
A teaching assistant has won an unfair dismissal case | :05:26. | :05:27. | |
after being sacked for complaining about children being shown | :05:28. | :05:29. | |
Suriyah Bi was sent home from an academy in Birmingham | :05:30. | :05:36. | |
after raising concerns about the video showing the 9/11 | :05:37. | :05:38. | |
One of the city's MPs says HE has concerns about the chain that runs | :05:39. | :05:43. | |
the academy and a number of others in the West Midlands. | :05:44. | :05:46. | |
After 18 months of turmoil, Suriyah Bi at last feels vindicated. | :05:47. | :05:52. | |
In September 2015, she was a classroom assistant at this | :05:53. | :05:54. | |
Despite a clear age warning, a teacher played a video to a group | :05:55. | :06:01. | |
of 11 and 12-year-olds, some of them with | :06:02. | :06:03. | |
Have you ever seen anything like this? | :06:04. | :06:15. | |
Absolutely not. I have seen at least ten people fall to their deaths. | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
It was about the 9/11 terror attacks and showed people | :06:19. | :06:21. | |
falling to their deaths - a video she complained | :06:22. | :06:23. | |
was inappropriate and a breach of safeguarding policy. | :06:24. | :06:25. | |
They said there would be an investigation. | :06:26. | :06:26. | |
They said I did the right thing raising the concern but 40 minutes | :06:27. | :06:29. | |
later they pulled me from my lesson and they told me the school was no | :06:30. | :06:33. | |
longer a suitable place for me to work because I was uncomfortable | :06:34. | :06:36. | |
Suriyah Bi's complaint led to her sacking and she brought | :06:37. | :06:39. | |
As a student herself she was head girl at Saltley School - | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
a school later linked to the so-called Trojan Horse affair | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
and allegations that conservative-minded Muslims | :06:48. | :06:50. | |
were seeking to exert undue influence. | :06:51. | :06:53. | |
She thinks her complaint about the video was construed | :06:54. | :06:57. | |
by the school as a complaint that they were anti-Muslim. | :06:58. | :07:02. | |
Although the tribunal agreed Suriyah Bi was unfairly dismissed, | :07:03. | :07:04. | |
they rejected her claim that she was discriminated | :07:05. | :07:08. | |
In a statement the chain running the school, E-Act, | :07:09. | :07:13. | |
said they were disappointed by the tribunal's main | :07:14. | :07:16. | |
"Heartlands is an outstanding academy which prides itself | :07:17. | :07:21. | |
on cultural inclusiveness and providing a nurturing environment." | :07:22. | :07:26. | |
Three years ago E-Act lost control of ten academies | :07:27. | :07:29. | |
after inspectors raised concerns about their performance. | :07:30. | :07:32. | |
Suriyah's MP's supported her claim for unfair dismissal. | :07:33. | :07:37. | |
The Secretary of State has got involved with this academy chain | :07:38. | :07:40. | |
before but now they have got to get stuck in again to get | :07:41. | :07:43. | |
to the bottom of what went wrong and to assure us and to assure | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
parents that there's not a systemic problem with this academy | :07:48. | :07:50. | |
chain that is looking after so many of our children. | :07:51. | :07:53. | |
An Oxford graduate, Suriyah Bi represented herself at the tribunal | :07:54. | :08:00. | |
and is writing a book about her journey from | :08:01. | :08:02. | |
Two people from Birmingham have been arrested on terrorism offences. They | :08:03. | :08:33. | |
are not connected with the recent attack in London. | :08:34. | :08:35. | |
Staff at BMW's engine plant at Hams Hall in Warwickshire | :08:36. | :08:37. | |
are to stage five 24-hour strikes in a dispute over pensions. | :08:38. | :08:40. | |
The workers - seen here protesting last month - | :08:41. | :08:42. | |
say they stand to lose thousands of pounds under plans | :08:43. | :08:45. | |
to stop their final salary pension scheme at the end of May. | :08:46. | :08:48. | |
BMW says it's disappointed and remains open to negotiation. | :08:49. | :08:50. | |
The Green Party candidate for the West Midlands first | :08:51. | :08:52. | |
metro-mayor officially launched his manifesto today. | :08:53. | :08:54. | |
James Burn, who's a councillor in Chelmsley Wood, says "no-one | :08:55. | :08:56. | |
will be left behind" if he's elected. | :08:57. | :08:58. | |
Voters go to the polls on May the 4th to decide who'll have | :08:59. | :09:01. | |
powers over transport, housing and economic development. | :09:02. | :09:04. | |
I want to be mayor because I think the economic plans for this | :09:05. | :09:07. | |
They have left areas like this really far behind and we need | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
a new type of economic plan which provides decent jobs | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
and good homes for everyone and shares out the wealth far more. | :09:16. | :09:18. | |

standing for election in the West Midlands Metro Mayor | :09:21. | :09:23. | |
From cricket bats to kitchen cupboards, a Coventry | :09:24. | :09:29. | |
firm is celebrating 150 years of business. | :09:30. | :09:33. | |
The family run firm has survived two world wars, | :09:34. | :09:35. | |
numerous recessions, and a technological revolution. | :09:36. | :09:38. | |
Joan Cummins has been speaking to the fifth generation | :09:39. | :09:40. | |
Henry Burbidge started his wood turning business | :09:41. | :09:48. | |
in Coventry in 1867, making wooden sports equipment. | :09:49. | :09:51. | |
Across the decades, Burbidge's diversified, | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
from cricket bats to stiletto heels to car components. | :09:56. | :09:58. | |
Anything that could be made out of wood. | :09:59. | :10:00. | |
You've got to keep reinventing the business. | :10:01. | :10:03. | |
We wouldn't be here 150 years on from the foundation if we hadn't | :10:04. | :10:06. | |
done lots and lots of different things because times change | :10:07. | :10:10. | |
Two world wars and countless economic recessions have seen | :10:11. | :10:16. | |
the Burbidge business continue to adapt. | :10:17. | :10:19. | |
Even the destruction of a factory during the bombing | :10:20. | :10:22. | |
of Coventry was treated just as an interruption in proceedings. | :10:23. | :10:25. | |
When the factory was completely devastated in the Coventry Blitz, | :10:26. | :10:27. | |
reading the stories about my grandfather and what he had to do | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
and going around on his bike to find other factories and find places | :10:32. | :10:34. | |
to actually sort of carry on, I think that sort of spirit of never | :10:35. | :10:41. | |
Mechanisation and changing taste continue to impact on the firm, | :10:42. | :10:46. | |
But it is not just in the boardroom that family loyalty matters. | :10:47. | :10:53. | |
On the shop floor, Neil and Graham represent third and fourth | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
generations of workers in the business. | :10:58. | :11:01. | |
The family connection is mainly my mum. | :11:02. | :11:03. | |
She started here and I think my nan started at roughly the same time. | :11:04. | :11:07. | |
I started 42 years ago and then my son started. | :11:08. | :11:13. | |
Footballers are amongst the customers for Burbidge | :11:14. | :11:16. | |
products these days, keeping a tenuous link | :11:17. | :11:19. | |
with its humble beginnings as a sports equipment manufacturer | :11:20. | :11:23. | |
If you've been out and about in the past few days, | :11:24. | :11:32. | |
you may have noticed the sudden explosion of blossom on the trees. | :11:33. | :11:35. | |
It's certainly been catching the photographic eye | :11:36. | :11:39. | |
And Rebecca Wood is in Birmingham's Botanical Gardens this | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
evening, enjoying the view - really picturesque, isn't it, Beccy? | :11:44. | :11:52. | |
It is not just picturesque. Let me tell you, the aroma is absolutely | :11:53. | :12:00. | |
gorgeous in the botanical Gardens. It is beautiful. There is a bit of a | :12:01. | :12:04. | |
breeze that is not helping the blossom but we can see the | :12:05. | :12:09. | |
magnolias, cherry blossoms, daffodils. Some of them have arrived | :12:10. | :12:13. | |
at the right time but some are rather early. What is the reason for | :12:14. | :12:18. | |
all this beautiful plumage? I have been speaking to one expert and he | :12:19. | :12:19. | |
says it is all to do with the weather. After a | :12:20. | :12:30. | |
dull and damp winter, spring is arguably the time when nature puts | :12:31. | :12:36. | |
on its best display. You can see the azaleas behind us | :12:37. | :12:42. | |
are burgeoning with flour. They have axillary buds we call them, that set | :12:43. | :12:51. | |
and are ready to go. We have this flour and potentially more to come | :12:52. | :12:55. | |
from these magnolias. Hedgerows, gardens and even the | :12:56. | :13:00. | |
roadside have a dusting of pink and white flowers which has inspired our | :13:01. | :13:05. | |
weather watchers. This spring display this year seems more | :13:06. | :13:08. | |
inspired than ever and that is thanks to the weather. | :13:09. | :13:14. | |
We had a warmer winter and that has made some bad sport. We have seen | :13:15. | :13:20. | |
some things that are not normally in flower at this time. | :13:21. | :13:24. | |
They are pretty flowers and there are a lot of them. | :13:25. | :13:28. | |
It is a spectacular show. We are really lucky to have it and the park | :13:29. | :13:36. | |
is brilliant. It is really lovely. With more mild weather to come, | :13:37. | :13:42. | |
there is a further displayed so enjoy it. | :13:43. | :13:48. | |
This is only going to continue but we could get second or even third | :13:49. | :13:57. | |
buds so it is not over yet but, warning for gardeners, we can still | :13:58. | :14:03. | |
get a touch of Frost so any tender plants need extra care is taken with | :14:04. | :14:09. | |
them. But perhaps more side-chain to come and more beautiful blossoms. | :14:10. | :14:14. | |
More details later with the weather forecast. | :14:15. | :14:16. | |
Thanks for joining us on Midlands Today. | :14:17. | :14:17. | |
After another sunny day, hopefully more of the same later | :14:18. | :14:20. | |
Also in tonight's programme: The baby born just hours before | :14:21. | :14:25. | |
Coventry City's epic win at Wembley - now she's been named | :14:26. | :14:27. | |
If you need any advice, I can give you the name of a good estate agent. | :14:28. | :14:43. | |
I give advice, I don't take it. And memories, 40 years on, | :14:44. | :14:46. | |
of Cliff Richard wowing his teenage fans as he filmed Take Me High | :14:47. | :14:48. | |
in the centre of Birmingham. The Warwickshire showjumper | :14:49. | :14:51. | |
Nick Skelton, who won Olympic gold for Great Britain at Rio 2016, | :14:52. | :14:53. | |
is retiring later this year. The 59-year-old will | :14:54. | :14:56. | |
compete for the final time at May's Royal Windsor Horse Show | :14:57. | :14:59. | |
on Big Star - the horse he rode to become the individual | :15:00. | :15:04. | |
Olympic champion. Rio was his seventh Games | :15:05. | :15:08. | |
and he became the second-oldest Winning Rio was the icing on the | :15:09. | :15:21. | |
cake. I don't think you can get any better than that. I will be 60 this | :15:22. | :15:27. | |
year so now is a good time to stop. Any sportsman will tell you, you'd | :15:28. | :15:30. | |
think it is going to go on forever and never want to stop but you have | :15:31. | :15:35. | |
to at some point. I don't think there is a better time to stop and | :15:36. | :15:38. | |
when you are at the top. Well, Nick Skelton may have been | :15:39. | :15:41. | |
the oldest British medallist in Rio Both went to Bablake | :15:42. | :15:44. | |
School in Coventry. And, when Skelton retires in May, | :15:45. | :15:47. | |
Adenagan will be taking her GCSEs and preparing | :15:48. | :15:49. | |
for the World Para-championships This weekend, she'll pick up | :15:50. | :15:51. | |
a Young Citizen's award Pushing hard in every training | :15:52. | :15:56. | |
session to be the best. But fast times on the track aren't | :15:57. | :16:01. | |
the only target for 16-year-old Maths and French revision | :16:02. | :16:05. | |
are just as important I go to school for about 8am and | :16:06. | :16:22. | |
have lessons until 4pm sought as a long day and then I get an hour at | :16:23. | :16:26. | |
home and then straight onto the track. I'm usually on the track for | :16:27. | :16:30. | |
two hours and then after that I have homework to do. So it is quite busy | :16:31. | :16:35. | |
but I know it will all be worth it in July. | :16:36. | :16:39. | |
Kare was born with cerebral palsy diplegia which affects | :16:40. | :16:41. | |
She only took up wheelchair racing after watching London 2012. | :16:42. | :16:45. | |
Four years later she was coming home from Rio with a silver and two | :16:46. | :16:48. | |
bronze medals to the delight of her fellow pupils | :16:49. | :16:50. | |
Their support will be important this year and they're not the only ones. | :16:51. | :16:57. | |
This sport does not come cheap and this chair has cost more than ?4000. | :16:58. | :17:06. | |
It is a bit more narrow so helps me to be aerodynamic. It is also | :17:07. | :17:12. | |
lighter so... I've also changed the colour a little bit so it matches | :17:13. | :17:15. | |
the track. Sky-blue for Coventry. The World Para-athletics | :17:16. | :17:18. | |
Championships in London Expectations are high | :17:19. | :17:20. | |
but so is the level It is not just a case of her | :17:21. | :17:34. | |
improving herself, the hurdles get higher and higher. You have to do | :17:35. | :17:39. | |
world-class, unheard-of times just to get the medals. | :17:40. | :17:40. | |
But Kare's determined that she will inspire the next | :17:41. | :17:42. | |
generation as she was inspired by the London Paralympics. | :17:43. | :17:46. | |
Plenty of football action last night and, at this stage of the season, | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
results become that little bit more crucial, performances | :17:50. | :17:51. | |
Here to put it all into context is Ian Winter. | :17:52. | :17:57. | |
Nick, let's start with a frustrating night in the Premier League. | :17:58. | :18:00. | |
West Brom headed south, Stoke City headed north, | :18:01. | :18:02. | |
and both returned home goalless and pointless. | :18:03. | :18:06. | |
Albion fell behind to an early goal at Watford. | :18:07. | :18:09. | |
It was scored by the French striker Niang who then created the second | :18:10. | :18:15. | |
for the former Walsall striker Troy Deeney. | :18:16. | :18:18. | |
Watford played the last 25 minutes with ten men, but West Brom | :18:19. | :18:22. | |
One goal was enough for Burnley to beat Stoke. | :18:23. | :18:26. | |
George Boyd's second-half side-foot means the Potters have now | :18:27. | :18:29. | |
In the Championship, Villa and Wolves are red hot right now. | :18:30. | :18:34. | |
fell behind after just two minutes at Brighton, | :18:35. | :18:41. | |
who then scored twice more in the second half to go top. | :18:42. | :18:46. | |
Che Adams got a late consolation but Birmingham have now taken just | :18:47. | :18:50. | |
12 points from 19 league games under Gianfranco Zola. | :18:51. | :18:56. | |
And they're only six points above relegation. | :18:57. | :18:59. | |
At Villa Park, Jonathan Kodjia grabbed his 18th goal | :19:00. | :19:02. | |
That's now seven wins out of eight but, with only six games left, | :19:03. | :19:07. | |
the play-offs are out of reach, says Steve Bruce. | :19:08. | :19:11. | |
And 1-0 was also the perfect score for Wolves, who've now | :19:12. | :19:13. | |
won their last five games on the bounce. | :19:14. | :19:17. | |
Nouha Dicko got the winning goal against Nottingham Forest. | :19:18. | :19:20. | |
The foot of League One makes grim reading. | :19:21. | :19:24. | |
Coventry look doomed, they travel to the leaders | :19:25. | :19:26. | |
Port Vale and Shrewsbury both lost again, and could well be joining | :19:27. | :19:32. | |
the Sky Blues in League two next season. | :19:33. | :19:35. | |
Vale in yellow conceded three goals in just 11 minutes away to Rochdale. | :19:36. | :19:40. | |
And there was no way back after that. | :19:41. | :19:44. | |
But Shrewsbury missed their chance to move out of the bottom four, | :19:45. | :19:47. | |
Shaun Whalley's last minute goal wasn't quite enough to salvage | :19:48. | :19:53. | |
And while we're talking about football, Sky Blues fans | :19:54. | :20:05. | |
are still basking in the glory of Sunday's Checkatrade Trophy win. | :20:06. | :20:09. | |
And for one blissfully unaware baby girl, the victory | :20:10. | :20:11. | |
That's because mum and dad have decided to name their daughter | :20:12. | :20:16. | |
after the Coventry goal scorers at Wembley. | :20:17. | :20:18. | |
Coventry's Checkatrade Trophy win on Sunday is still the talk | :20:19. | :20:35. | |
of the town in the Sky Blue city, no more so in the home of | :20:36. | :20:39. | |
Steve had to miss the final as his partner had just given birth, | :20:40. | :20:46. | |
and it was then they decided to name her after the two Coventry | :20:47. | :20:50. | |
goal scorers George Thomas and Gale Bigimirama. | :20:51. | :20:59. | |
I was winding her up and saying we were going to call her yet to prove | :21:00. | :21:17. | |
-- Yakubu. And then my sister came up with the named Georgie of -- | :21:18. | :21:20. | |
Georgia. What a name. And being in hospital Steve had | :21:21. | :21:25. | |
problems keeping across the score, although he did get | :21:26. | :21:27. | |
wind of the first goal. But he got the biggest prize | :21:28. | :21:29. | |
of all on a day He has some mementos from the day. | :21:30. | :21:54. | |
I was gutted about missing the match. But as soon as she came it | :21:55. | :22:03. | |
didn't matter. Well worth it. | :22:04. | :22:06. | |
He's now going to buy Georgia Gale her first Sky Blue | :22:07. | :22:09. | |
outfit and is hoping to persuade her | :22:10. | :22:10. | |
Meanwhile, a close friend's promised to take him to see | :22:11. | :22:14. | |
the Sky Blues play Peterborough at the Ricoh this weekend. | :22:15. | :22:24. | |
Just a couple of days before the cricket season starts, | :22:25. | :22:27. | |
the Warwickshire captain Ian Bell has signed a contract extension | :22:28. | :22:29. | |
to stay at Edgbaston until the end of the 2020 season. | :22:30. | :22:32. | |
Bell's been involved with the county since he was ten years old. | :22:33. | :22:35. | |
He's the most capped international cricketer in Warwickshire history | :22:36. | :22:38. | |
and he's won six domestic trophies with the Bears. | :22:39. | :22:43. | |
Let me take you back to 1973, one of the country's biggest pop | :22:44. | :22:47. | |
stars was on the canals of Birmingham sending screaming | :22:48. | :22:49. | |
Cliff Richard was here to star in the film 'Take Me High' and, | :22:50. | :22:57. | |
this Saturday, it'll get an outdoor screening as part of | :22:58. | :22:59. | |
Our Arts Reporter Satnam Rana has been taking a step | :23:00. | :23:02. | |
Speeding into Birmingham - a young Cliff Richard. | :23:03. | :23:13. | |
This is him as banker Tim Matthews in the 1973 | :23:14. | :23:16. | |
Much traffic? Nothing to speak of. | :23:17. | :23:27. | |
The character comes to life on the canals, | :23:28. | :23:29. | |
falls in love and creates a Brumburger. | :23:30. | :23:36. | |
You make a good quality hamburger that everyone in Birmingham can | :23:37. | :23:40. | |
enjoy it and you are really back in business. | :23:41. | :23:47. | |
OK, so the film was made before my time but I no idea was made here | :23:48. | :23:52. | |
with Cliff Richard in it. Better still, I have found someone who was | :23:53. | :23:53. | |
actually in it. Mad about Cliff Richard - | :23:54. | :23:55. | |
Martine Carter from Sutton As a 14-year-old, you've got to | :23:56. | :24:08. | |
understand it was not very good to see my idol Cliff Richard sitting | :24:09. | :24:15. | |
alongside another woman in an open top car so I scribbled her out. | :24:16. | :24:18. | |
These photos taken on set because she bunked off | :24:19. | :24:20. | |
I always used to queue up to see him and here we were, chasing our idol | :24:21. | :24:31. | |
round Birmingham. But then she ended up | :24:32. | :24:32. | |
being an extra in the film. Not many teenagers can say they have | :24:33. | :24:45. | |
been any film at their favourite pop star, can they? | :24:46. | :24:50. | |
This is just one part of the city centre that will remain and Martine | :24:51. | :24:54. | |
of her adventure always. And the film will be shown as part of the | :24:55. | :25:02. | |
film festival this weekend. Given that people don't know about | :25:03. | :25:07. | |
it as well as they make do, it is a good opportunity to bring it back. | :25:08. | :25:14. | |
So if you fancy a rewind to '70s Brum Regency Wharf is the place | :25:15. | :25:17. | |
And I'm delighted to say that Shefali's taken a break from sorting | :25:18. | :25:24. | |
through her Cliff Richard albums to bring us the forecast. | :25:25. | :25:28. | |
It would be if it was summer. Lots of blossom around and bright | :25:29. | :25:44. | |
sunshine. It did start to fade away from the North quite quickly and it | :25:45. | :25:49. | |
negatively impacted the temperatures, which only rose to | :25:50. | :25:54. | |
about eight, nine or 10 Celsius. Whereas in the south they were 12 | :25:55. | :26:00. | |
and 13 Celsius. High pressure dominates the next few days and will | :26:01. | :26:08. | |
be sitting ballplayer colossus -- boldly across us. This is how it is | :26:09. | :26:16. | |
going to impact on the weather over the weekend. It is looking quite | :26:17. | :26:26. | |
nice. Lengthier sunny spells than we have had. We could get some chilly | :26:27. | :26:34. | |
nights with some touches of frost. Something in the midst to high teens | :26:35. | :26:39. | |
to look forward to. We still have some sunshine across the central and | :26:40. | :26:45. | |
southern parts of the region but we're going to see a mixture of | :26:46. | :26:50. | |
cloud and clear spells and temperatures in the clearer spells | :26:51. | :26:57. | |
could fall low enough for a touch of frost in rural spots. Each chilly | :26:58. | :27:01. | |
start to the day tomorrow but a dry one hand, compares with today, it | :27:02. | :27:06. | |
will be dry. Some cloud through the course of the day that temperatures | :27:07. | :27:12. | |
should manage highs of 11 in the north and 13 in the side. Tomorrow | :27:13. | :27:18. | |
night, another mixture of cloud and clear spells. The same problem with | :27:19. | :27:28. | |
frost in rural spots. It is going to be a fairly chilly start to the | :27:29. | :27:34. | |
weekend. A touch of frost to start Saturday but decent spells | :27:35. | :27:38. | |
especially on Sunday with highs of up to 18 Celsius. | :27:39. | :27:42. | |
CHILD: This is a major scientific breakthrough. | :27:43. | :28:04. | |
Hello. It's All Round to Mrs Brown's, where my guests will be | :28:05. | :28:19. | |
Steve Backshall, and music from the beautiful Pixie Lott. | :28:20. | :28:27. |
