:00:07. > :00:10.The parents of a 13-month-old boy from Worcestershire who drowned

:00:11. > :00:14.in the bath have both been jailed for manslaughter.

:00:15. > :00:17.The court heard that Kian Dale had been left unattended

:00:18. > :00:21.for up to 13 minutes, while Wayne Dale and Lisa Passey

:00:22. > :00:29.Dale was jailed for four and a half years and Passey for four years.

:00:30. > :00:33.In the quiet Worcestershire town of Tenbury Wells

:00:34. > :00:36.they were a familiar sight on the High Street.

:00:37. > :00:39.Everyone thought they were good parents.

:00:40. > :00:45.I just thought they were normal, responsible parents

:00:46. > :00:48.because he always had the kid on his shoulders going around

:00:49. > :00:50.town and she would be pushing a pushchair.

:00:51. > :00:52.Maria Fernandez was a neighbour who often spoke to the couple.

:00:53. > :00:56.She was at home on the day Kian died.

:00:57. > :01:00.I saw them in the garden so at the point I was seeing them

:01:01. > :01:08.the baby must have been in the bath, so it was quite shocking for me

:01:09. > :01:15.And thinking that the baby was over there and I couldn't do anything.

:01:16. > :01:30.The court heard that that day window came screaming down the stairs with

:01:31. > :01:32.his son in his arms. He had found him with his head and upper body

:01:33. > :01:33.immersed in the water. A retired nurse living a few doors

:01:34. > :01:37.up came to try and resuscitate Kian The air ambulance landed

:01:38. > :01:40.in the school playing fields opposite, and Kian was taken

:01:41. > :01:42.to Birmingham Children's Hospital, The case rested on the amount

:01:43. > :01:47.of time that Kian had been in the bath and we identified

:01:48. > :01:53.a period of up to 13 minutes. We worked that out from witness

:01:54. > :02:01.testimony and we also identified that Wayne had used a computer

:02:02. > :02:05.whilst Kian was in the bath, so we analysed that computer

:02:06. > :02:07.and that computer gave us certain evidence around how it had been used

:02:08. > :02:11.during that period of time. This was where Passey and Dale had

:02:12. > :02:13.been entertaining a friend, smoking and drinking coffee as Kian

:02:14. > :02:16.was in the bath Bath seats can give

:02:17. > :02:19.you a false sense of security. They enable you to back your child

:02:20. > :02:21.without keeping hold of them at all times,

:02:22. > :02:24.and that's maybe where the problem arises, parents think their child

:02:25. > :02:27.is securely supported in the bath, that they're not going to slip under

:02:28. > :02:30.the water, but as this tragic case highlights,

:02:31. > :02:32.that can still happen and in fact it's not the first time that we've

:02:33. > :02:35.heard of a child falling out News of Kian's parents' conviction

:02:36. > :02:44.has divided this country town. It's pretty defenceless at that

:02:45. > :02:57.age, so no, I'm afraid During her trial Lisa Passey said

:02:58. > :03:08.she didn't want pity. to have gone upstairs

:03:09. > :03:11.to be with Kian. I think it's going to have a big

:03:12. > :03:14.effect on her mentally The guilt is going to

:03:15. > :03:19.be deadly, I think. I don't know how she would feel,

:03:20. > :03:22.but I wouldn't be able It's one big, giant

:03:23. > :03:30.mistake, isn't it? Hundreds of drivers spent up to four

:03:31. > :03:33.hours trapped on the M40 earlier after police closed the road to deal

:03:34. > :03:36.with an incident. The motorway is now open again

:03:37. > :03:39.but traffic problems have continued Our reporter Amy Cole

:03:40. > :03:55.has the details. As you can hear the motorway is back

:03:56. > :03:59.open and traffic is moving well but motorists have had a miserable day.

:04:00. > :04:04.The motorway was closed at junction 16 near Henley in Arden, down to

:04:05. > :04:09.junction 15 in near Warwick at around 3:15pm.

:04:10. > :04:11.It was all because police were concerned about

:04:12. > :04:14.Specialist negotaiators were brought in and an ambualnce

:04:15. > :04:16.Specialist negotaiators were brought in and an ambualance

:04:17. > :04:19.The incident was eventually resolved just after 7.00pm this evening.

:04:20. > :04:23.As well as the M40, there were also long delays on the M42, the A46,

:04:24. > :04:26.the A452 and many other routes as a result of the motorway closure

:04:27. > :04:30.Many drivers took to social media to vent their frustration

:04:31. > :04:32.while they were trapped on the motorway below me.

:04:33. > :04:34.Some were concerned about missing tonight's

:04:35. > :04:35.concert by Bruno Mars at the Barclaycard

:04:36. > :04:38.But another, Gail Poultney from Staffordshire, took time out

:04:39. > :04:43.to tweet her thanks to Walsall coach company JK International after one

:04:44. > :04:46.of its drivers opened their on-board toilet after she'd been stuck

:04:47. > :04:57.Traffic is now moving well again tonight.

:04:58. > :05:02.A 21-year-old Birmingham woman has tonight been charged

:05:03. > :05:05.Officers from the West Midlands Counter Terrorism unit arrested

:05:06. > :05:08.Madihah Taheer at an address in the city this morning as part

:05:09. > :05:15.She will appear before Westminster magistrates tomorrow.

:05:16. > :05:17.If you're a regular train traveller, you'll appreciate having

:05:18. > :05:20.London Midland is joining other train companies

:05:21. > :05:22.by offering just that, and something else,

:05:23. > :05:24.on-board entertainment, including films to watch.

:05:25. > :05:28.It's hoped it will be available on 70% of trains

:05:29. > :05:32.Here's our Transport correspondent Peter Plisner.

:05:33. > :05:35.Fancy watching a blockbuster movie next time you're on the train?

:05:36. > :05:39.Now you can, and although it's only a limited selection in the future

:05:40. > :05:44.Passengers we spoke to this morning seem to like the idea.

:05:45. > :05:53.There are cartoons on there which is handy when you have children.

:05:54. > :05:56.It will keep you entertained when I take this train.

:05:57. > :05:58.Yeah, it's good but they could have a bit more on there.

:05:59. > :06:01.The entertainment firm behind the new system says there's

:06:02. > :06:08.We have a range of movies and 50 hours of television, ranging across

:06:09. > :06:10.all genres. But for people who just

:06:11. > :06:12.want to work free wi-fi If you've used online Wi-Fi systems

:06:13. > :06:16.on trains before you how slow they can be but this promises

:06:17. > :06:19.to be different because a lot of the content people will be

:06:20. > :06:22.watching is already on board But London Midland is pretty late

:06:23. > :06:27.in the game with on board wi-fi. Virgin Trains has had it for years,

:06:28. > :06:31.but it's only free in First class. It's a similar picture on board

:06:32. > :06:33.with Cross Country trains. Both both Chiltern Railways

:06:34. > :06:35.and Arriva Trains Wales allows free The new train entertainment system

:06:36. > :06:43.go live officially from tomorrow and it'll be available

:06:44. > :06:46.on all London Midland long distance It's the dream of anyone

:06:47. > :06:53.who is challenged with the big bills which come with an historic building

:06:54. > :06:57.- being left a valuable work of art. That's what's happened

:06:58. > :06:59.to Lichfield Cathedral. It's been given a painting

:07:00. > :07:02.by the world renowned After spending two centuries

:07:03. > :07:07.in private hands, the watercolour Painted by Turner in 1832,

:07:08. > :07:16.this watercolour hasn't been seen collection and has been bequeathed

:07:17. > :07:24.to Lichfield Cathedral. If you know Lichfield,

:07:25. > :07:35.you will know this scene because this is Minster Pool,

:07:36. > :07:38.but we also know it is his own because it is in his

:07:39. > :07:42.own perspective. That's a characteristic of his,

:07:43. > :07:45.he moved to capture light, so every pilgrim to the cathedral

:07:46. > :07:48.will have seen it for 1,300 years, Alongside the painting

:07:49. > :07:53.are Turner's sketches, many of which he did as a young man

:07:54. > :07:56.before he completed These studies possibly

:07:57. > :08:15.haven't been along with the final watercolour piece since

:08:16. > :08:18.they were in Turner's studio, that's quite special,

:08:19. > :08:20.to have the opportunity to stand and look at where possibly the last

:08:21. > :08:23.person who saw them all together The three spires of Lichfield

:08:24. > :08:26.Cathedral have inspired artists for centuries and alongside

:08:27. > :08:28.the pitched by Turner, there are paintings from other

:08:29. > :08:30.artists who captured this building's distinctive and awe-inspiring

:08:31. > :08:31.architecture. Every artist has seen the cathedral

:08:32. > :08:36.with their own image and evolve Every artist has seen the cathedral

:08:37. > :08:39.with their own image and they've all It's that kind of domination

:08:40. > :08:44.and that kind of, like, wow factor, that impact,

:08:45. > :08:46.that is inspiring. I've always been a great fan

:08:47. > :08:49.of Turner since I was a boy The exhibition is free and is open

:08:50. > :08:54.daily for the next six weeks. It's a rare chance to see

:08:55. > :08:57.a collection of paintings celebrating one of the Midlands'

:08:58. > :09:08.most magnificent buildings. The gritters are out tonight

:09:09. > :09:11.in parts of the region, which will give you an idea of how

:09:12. > :09:14.the temperatures are going to fall. I'll leave you with a rather wintery

:09:15. > :09:26.forecast from Shefali. Good evening. If only it was an

:09:27. > :09:32.April falls, but it isn't and we are being tricked into thinking it is

:09:33. > :09:36.winter this week when it is spring. Believe it or not we had these kind

:09:37. > :09:38.of conditions this time last year as well.

:09:39. > :09:40.Temperatures are tumbling this week post-cold front,

:09:41. > :09:41.which was slipping southwards through the day.

:09:42. > :09:44.So you can see from our Weather Watchers' picture

:09:45. > :09:45.how the weather altered as it went along.

:09:46. > :09:48.Cloudy across the north to begin with, then the sun appeared

:09:49. > :09:52.It brought rain to the south, and a couple of hours ago

:09:53. > :10:05.We have a legacy of cold air for the middle part of the weekend

:10:06. > :10:08.temperatures will tumble and we have snow shovels and blustery winds as

:10:09. > :10:13.well. That adds a wind chill and then the temperature picks up on

:10:14. > :10:17.Friday for the bank holiday weekend. The cold front is to the south of

:10:18. > :10:21.sand out of the way. Rush of showers are developing behind it. High

:10:22. > :10:26.pressure is dominant to the Western that will kill off the shower

:10:27. > :10:30.activity on Thursday and Friday. Tonight we have largely clear skies

:10:31. > :10:34.across us right now said temperatures tumble to near freezing

:10:35. > :10:39.in the countryside. A touch of Frost around the wind picks up and a few

:10:40. > :10:43.showers in West tonight. They develop quite widely in the course

:10:44. > :10:48.of tomorrow with a lot of sunshine in between but you know about it if

:10:49. > :10:52.you are caught in no showers. It is windy and cold and temperatures are

:10:53. > :10:56.nine to 11 but much colder in the showers but don't forget the

:10:57. > :11:00.wind-chill. The shells contain hail thunder and snow on the wind --

:11:01. > :11:03.hilltops. The National weather forecast is next.

:11:04. > :11:05.course, there'll be the threat of some rain. More with the national

:11:06. > :11:12.forecast now. Good evening. It's been turning

:11:13. > :11:15.colder from the north so far today. It's been cold enough for

:11:16. > :11:19.significant snow in northern Scotland. This was mid afternoon.

:11:20. > :11:24.More recently it's been blowing around over the tops of the

:11:25. > :11:28.mountains. Snow in April not necessarily unusual but it's usually

:11:29. > :11:32.unwelcome. The colder air coming in behind the front which clears

:11:33. > :11:37.towards the near continent, opening the floodgates to this Coldstream of

:11:38. > :11:39.air all the way from the Arctic. That cold air increasingly
