Welcome to North West Tonight with Roger Johnson and | :00:07. | :00:10. | |
Subjected to homophobic abuse and intimidation. | :00:11. | :00:13. | |
Complaints by Wallasey MP Angela Eagle are supported | :00:14. | :00:15. | |
Knock back the incident happened after she announced a leadership | :00:16. | :00:27. | |
More jobs available than evdr before, so why are people hdre are | :00:28. | :00:37. | |
?100,000 raised in just 36 hours for pioneering treatment, | :00:38. | :00:40. | |
which has given Erin the ch`nce of a normal life. | :00:41. | :00:43. | |
An industrial artery then a life-blood for leisure. | :00:44. | :00:45. | |
We celebrate two centuries of England's longest canal. | :00:46. | :00:49. | |
It is part of our heritage `nd it hasn't to be forgotten. That's | :00:50. | :00:57. | |
really our line. It's here hn your heart. It is. | :00:58. | :01:07. | |
The Labour Party has upheld complaints by the Wallace MP | :01:08. | :01:10. | |
Angela Eagle that she and hdr staff were subjected to homophobic | :01:11. | :01:13. | |
abuse and intimidation by local party activists. | :01:14. | :01:16. | |
The MP, who was involved in the leadership challenge | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
to Jeremy Corbyn, said she was pleased that the parties NEC | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
Meanwhile a 45-year-old man has pleaded guilty to sending ddath | :01:23. | :01:29. | |
threats to her on the day she launched her leadership bid | :01:30. | :01:31. | |
Our political reporter Kevin Fitzpatrick is outsidd | :01:32. | :01:33. | |
Tensions within the local L`bour Party came to a head back in the | :01:34. | :01:46. | |
summer when Angela Eagle began to criticise Jeremy Corbyn and | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
ultimately challenged him for leadership. The Labour Partx agreed | :01:51. | :01:53. | |
with her that's when the abtse began. It is confirmed she suffered | :01:54. | :01:58. | |
homophobic abuse at the constituency meeting. Her office did recdive | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
intimidating phone calls and they received hundreds of messagds that | :02:04. | :02:08. | |
were abusive, intimidating, homophobic and menacing. It also | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
said that it's highly likelx an attack on this office where it | :02:13. | :02:17. | |
break-up was thrown through a window was linked to her leadership bid. I | :02:18. | :02:24. | |
spoke to a local party membdr who supports her. Ultimately thd report | :02:25. | :02:28. | |
outlines and very serious issues within the local Labour Party. It's | :02:29. | :02:31. | |
made it clear that there was an unpleasant mood for many melbers. | :02:32. | :02:36. | |
There was intimidation and homophobia and ultimately it was | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
abuse. It doesn't quite cle`r that what's happened is unaccept`ble and | :02:41. | :02:43. | |
I think the report makes th`t clear and I think it's a positive step for | :02:44. | :02:49. | |
the local Labour Party. Has been any response from the constituency | :02:50. | :02:54. | |
party? No one from the constituency party was prepared to do an | :02:55. | :02:58. | |
interview, but we do have a statement from the chair. She said | :02:59. | :03:01. | |
you was disappointed at what this report has concluded. She is | :03:02. | :03:09. | |
critical of the fact that the party says it happened despite not naming | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
anyone who is involved in that. That could come in January when the | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
Labour Party meets to discuss this. Charges could come towards | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
individuals on that they cotld be kicked out of the party. Angela | :03:22. | :03:24. | |
Eagle has welcomed the result of this report and has also expressed | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
gratitude to Jeremy Corbyn who she said turned up at the meeting, had | :03:29. | :03:33. | |
his say and he expressed sincere sympathy to her and staff. Ht also | :03:34. | :03:40. | |
we have been speaking to political experts who say that despitd this, | :03:41. | :03:44. | |
you have to wonder where thd party goes from here. Where does the | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
Wallasey constituency party go from your? They can either get themselves | :03:49. | :03:53. | |
back together via mediation order is the potential for expulsions of | :03:54. | :03:58. | |
certain members. This presents a picture of a constituency more akin | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
to that 1980s Merseyside in which you have backing forces on dither | :04:04. | :04:08. | |
side of a political divide. Iman has also been in court today ovdr making | :04:09. | :04:16. | |
threats to Ms Eagle. Yes, Stephen King from Paisley in Scotland, who | :04:17. | :04:22. | |
is 45 years old. On the day she put a leadership bid in, he sent her a | :04:23. | :04:30. | |
e-mail saying that if she bdcame leader Stewart Di and the ndxt ten | :04:31. | :04:33. | |
years or he would have a gun or a knife with him. He said he was just | :04:34. | :04:39. | |
letting off steam, he was found guilty of menacing messaging and has | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
been given an eight week suspended prison sentence. Image five involved | :04:45. | :04:53. | |
in the maternity scandal has been struck off. The Council found that | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
she feels to provide basic character baby Joshua who died aged nhne days. | :04:58. | :05:05. | |
She was already suspended after the death of another baby in March this | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
year. The panel said she showed little remarks for her actions. | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
The Secretary of State for Dducation has been in the north-west today, | :05:14. | :05:16. | |
after Oldham was chosen to receive a share of ?60 million | :05:17. | :05:19. | |
under the Government's new Opportunity Areas schemd, | :05:20. | :05:20. | |
designed to help children get a good start. | :05:21. | :05:22. | |
Justine greening was visiting the borough - which is one of Six | :05:23. | :05:25. | |
areas in the country - identified as the most challenged | :05:26. | :05:28. | |
Oldham will now now have access to funding to address some | :05:29. | :05:32. | |
of its biggest challenges around schools, colleges | :05:33. | :05:34. | |
It's an overall ?60 million pot but the point is that we're | :05:35. | :05:37. | |
going to work with schools to provide additional support inside | :05:38. | :05:40. | |
But also then making sure that things | :05:41. | :05:42. | |
like the National citizens service that offers opportunities for young | :05:43. | :05:45. | |
people in Oldham, making sure that the careers and enterprise | :05:46. | :05:47. | |
company is really focusing on Oldham to help | :05:48. | :05:49. | |
young people understand just how many opportunities there ard. | :05:50. | :05:51. | |
The trial of a cheshire councillor accused of obstructing an officer | :05:52. | :05:54. | |
as police tried to clear an anti-fracking camp began today. | :05:55. | :05:57. | |
Councillor Matthew Bryan was arrested in Jaunary | :05:58. | :06:00. | |
He climbed a cherry picker to stop it entering a field, | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
as he was worried the weight of it would collapse onto protestors | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
He, along with seven other protestors on trial for a v`riety | :06:08. | :06:11. | |
of offences, deny all charges against them. | :06:12. | :06:12. | |
The trial is expected to last a week. | :06:13. | :06:14. | |
The case against a former tdacher accused of abusing boys | :06:15. | :06:16. | |
at Knowl View School in Rochdale has been dropped. | :06:17. | :06:19. | |
David Higgins, who's now 76, was due to go on trial later this ydar | :06:20. | :06:22. | |
He's already in jail, having been previously | :06:23. | :06:25. | |
But now prosecutors say there's not enough evidence | :06:26. | :06:28. | |
to take him to court, after new information came to light. | :06:29. | :06:31. | |
MP for Rochdale Simon Dancztk has written a book about the abtse | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
Well, I am very disappointed for the victims of child | :06:35. | :06:40. | |
There's been a complete failure here from Manchester police. | :06:41. | :06:43. | |
People all around Rochdale talk about the abuse | :06:44. | :06:45. | |
that was meted out at the school and yes, Greater Manchester Police | :06:46. | :06:48. | |
I think what we now need of the Independent Police | :06:49. | :07:02. | |
Complaints Commission to look at why there is a lack of professionalism | :07:03. | :07:04. | |
within Greater Manchester Police when it comes to investigathng | :07:05. | :07:07. | |
That obviously is something that they would refute. | :07:08. | :07:10. | |
Is there part of you, as the Rochdale MP, they're | :07:11. | :07:12. | |
just wishes that the name of Rochdale would stop being linked | :07:13. | :07:15. | |
with crimes and allegations of crimes that this? | :07:16. | :07:17. | |
I think it has been good for a Rochdale to clear up | :07:18. | :07:20. | |
a lot of what's gone on before, whether that was in terms of sales | :07:21. | :07:26. | |
who has been proven to be a paedophile. | :07:27. | :07:32. | |
Whether it's in terms of | :07:33. | :07:33. | |
the Rochdale grooming scand`l, as has been called. | :07:34. | :07:35. | |
We have prosecutions around that as well. | :07:36. | :07:37. | |
I think there has been healthy and | :07:38. | :07:38. | |
positive for the town and I think people are proud of the fact that | :07:39. | :07:42. | |
There's a lot of good going on in Rochdale | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
are going to capitalise on that there is no doubt about it. | :07:47. | :07:49. | |
Can the complainants in this case take any | :07:50. | :07:51. | |
comfort do you think from the | :07:52. | :07:52. | |
fact that David Higgins, who they accused, | :07:53. | :07:54. | |
Well, that's why we would have assumed | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
that it would have been so luch easier to bring a case against him | :07:59. | :08:01. | |
and that I am puzzled as to why they couldn't stack the evidence up | :08:02. | :08:04. | |
I think they will take little comfort from these decisions about | :08:05. | :08:08. | |
I think they have to now make representations to the national | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
The latest unemployment figures were out today. | :08:13. | :08:16. | |
The number of people out of work in the north-west went up bx 8, 00 | :08:17. | :08:19. | |
There are now 182,000 peopld unemployed in the region. | :08:20. | :08:24. | |
That's 5.1% of the workforcd, just above the national average | :08:25. | :08:30. | |
But when you compare these figures to previous years, | :08:31. | :08:32. | |
it appears the picture isn't so bleak. | :08:33. | :08:36. | |
In 2012 there were 335,000 people unemployed in the region. | :08:37. | :08:38. | |
That was 9.5% of the workforce, compared to 8.1% nationally. | :08:39. | :08:41. | |
Since then, the number of unemployed has steadily fallen, | :08:42. | :08:44. | |
while still remaining above the national average , | :08:45. | :08:47. | |
hitting a low of 174,000 between April and June this year. | :08:48. | :08:53. | |
Stuart Flinders has been to find out whether those headline figures | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
Rob Dixon certainly isn't complaning about falling unemployment rates, | :08:58. | :09:28. | |
but the trend does give him a finished a batch of there's | :09:29. | :09:30. | |
going to be he is trying to expand his business in Stockport, | :09:31. | :09:33. | |
If we advertise we we offer interviews to everybody. | :09:34. | :09:37. | |
Have to help, to we might rdgret, and one was levered in the first two | :09:38. | :09:45. | |
weeks. It's hard work and for small business in particular, the head of | :09:46. | :09:47. | |
resources needed to put into that, in his to be made easier. The | :09:48. | :09:54. | |
figures are welcomed at job centres like this. They are part of the | :09:55. | :09:58. | |
recent trend that suggest more and more people, particularly women are | :09:59. | :10:06. | |
finding work. Of year, therd are an additional 63,000 people who find | :10:07. | :10:09. | |
work. That is consistent throughout the region. We think that is a | :10:10. | :10:13. | |
positive story. There are still a lot of vacancies out there, mainly | :10:14. | :10:15. | |
in the care and hospitality sectors. Marcus Fogerty has been | :10:16. | :10:19. | |
unemployed for a long time. I guess, even if unemployment | :10:20. | :10:21. | |
is coming down, if you're ott It's still hard to get | :10:22. | :10:23. | |
the job, isn't it? Yeah, it's time-consuming | :10:24. | :10:27. | |
and what they say to people is, There are still jobs | :10:28. | :10:29. | |
available of course, Another really big concern | :10:30. | :10:33. | |
is about the quality Over the last few years, we've seen | :10:34. | :10:37. | |
even your shift in the labotr market from full-time, perm`nent | :10:38. | :10:42. | |
positions to part-time, short time And that is a major | :10:43. | :10:44. | |
concern in terms of Employment figures may be ilproving, | :10:45. | :10:47. | |
but the unions and businesslen like Rob Dixon agree, more needs to be | :10:48. | :10:57. | |
done to improve the skills of those When Erin Cross needed | :10:58. | :11:00. | |
pioneering medical treatment in the United States, | :11:01. | :11:12. | |
her parents faced a major challenge - they had to raise | :11:13. | :11:14. | |
?140,00, and quickly. Amazingly, an appeal | :11:15. | :11:17. | |
via social media brought Erin flew out to the States, | :11:18. | :11:18. | |
spent three months undergoing treatment and is now back | :11:19. | :11:30. | |
home in Chester. Dave Guest has been | :11:31. | :11:35. | |
to meet her and her family. To see her playing happily, | :11:36. | :11:39. | |
you'd never guess that Erin has been though some pretty tough tiles | :11:40. | :11:42. | |
in her short life. She was diagnosed with | :11:43. | :11:44. | |
leukaemia at the age of two. Her parents were then told she'd | :11:45. | :11:51. | |
need a bone marrow transplant. We needed to get airing into | :11:52. | :11:54. | |
remission, as she could havd a bone marrow transplant, so she c`n be | :11:55. | :12:01. | |
fully cured of the leukemia. Erin's parents heard of a phoneering | :12:02. | :12:04. | |
cell engineering therapy being tried out in America, | :12:05. | :12:06. | |
which offered the best chance of getting Erin into remisshon | :12:07. | :12:08. | |
so that she could have that Trials in the UK are | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
still in their infancy. At the time we needed the treatment, | :12:12. | :12:16. | |
Seattle was the only option for us. Basically, blood is taken | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
from the patient and so-called T They're then re-engineered `nd | :12:21. | :12:25. | |
administered back into the patient. Those re-engineered cells then | :12:26. | :12:39. | |
attack the cancerous tumour. The family needed to raised | :12:40. | :12:42. | |
?140,000 and quickly. Amazingly, a social media c`mpaign | :12:43. | :12:45. | |
raised the cash in just 36 hours. We just want to thank everyone | :12:46. | :12:50. | |
from the bottom of our hearts. Everyone that supported and donated | :12:51. | :12:57. | |
retweeted and shared the story on social media. | :12:58. | :12:59. | |
So in July, the family arrived in the states | :13:00. | :13:06. | |
It wasn't without difficulthes, this is Erin in ICU. | :13:07. | :13:13. | |
She'd suffered seizures after her first infusion. | :13:14. | :13:14. | |
But within weeks, there were big improvements. | :13:15. | :13:16. | |
Erin even became a minor celebrity on American TV. | :13:17. | :13:18. | |
home, here at Seattle's children's, all the way from England to take | :13:19. | :13:23. | |
And, Anthony, how is she now singes had this therapy in | :13:24. | :13:31. | |
With got to kind of keep are slightly isolated, becatse her | :13:32. | :13:36. | |
immune system is still working to get better. | :13:37. | :13:39. | |
Yes, so now she is ready for transplants and preparations | :13:40. | :13:41. | |
have taken place at Manchester's children's hospital. | :13:42. | :13:43. | |
For now, Erin's family have their minds focused on | :13:44. | :13:49. | |
next month when she'll have that bone marrow transplant in M`nchester | :13:50. | :13:52. | |
and hopefully be rid of leukaemia for good. | :13:53. | :13:54. | |
Dave Guest, BBC North West Tonight, Chester. | :13:55. | :14:07. | |
We really wish her well. Th`t is when social media is really used for | :14:08. | :14:16. | |
good. In minor celebrity on American TV, a major celebrity. | :14:17. | :14:22. | |
Investigations are continuing into her part of Manchester stathons roof | :14:23. | :14:31. | |
collapsed last night. Witness is described gallons of water falling | :14:32. | :14:32. | |
onto the platform. Manchester Victoria Station's revamp | :14:33. | :14:42. | |
cost ?44 million, having its roof succumbed to the Manchester rain was | :14:43. | :14:47. | |
not part of the plan. Must that lacklustre back we want to lake sure | :14:48. | :14:50. | |
that passengers are safe and that people make a full recovery from | :14:51. | :14:54. | |
what happened last night. Wd have a plastic bubble roof and it developed | :14:55. | :14:58. | |
a whole and the rainwater got in and created a mass of water which fell | :14:59. | :15:01. | |
through the sheet below it. Today the area around the first and second | :15:02. | :15:07. | |
platforms remain closed. Thd roof panels that were damaged have now | :15:08. | :15:10. | |
been secured, the station rdmains open with services running normally. | :15:11. | :15:16. | |
It's not just the rain that has been blamed as the cause of the roof | :15:17. | :15:20. | |
collapse, some are pointing the finger at seagulls. There h`ve been | :15:21. | :15:23. | |
some suggestion that seagulls could be to blame, is there any truth in | :15:24. | :15:30. | |
that? It is far too early, ht is a complex roof, a brand-new structure | :15:31. | :15:33. | |
and it is too early to put labels on it. Not quite what ever, has left | :15:34. | :15:42. | |
some commuters wary. It is lovely, but one mistake could turn hnto a | :15:43. | :15:47. | |
disaster. It should not happen. If the rain find any weakness hn any | :15:48. | :15:52. | |
roof, whether it's your house or your station. Network Rail hs | :15:53. | :15:58. | |
confident it is an isolated incident. Absolutely. The hdavy rain | :15:59. | :16:02. | |
modelling that we would havd done for Manchester, that is what it s | :16:03. | :16:05. | |
designed to do with have done full checks to make sure that is the | :16:06. | :16:09. | |
case. A replacement roof panel is due to be installed this wedkend. | :16:10. | :16:11. | |
It's been described as one of the most important constructions | :16:12. | :16:14. | |
127 miles in length - the longest canal in England. | :16:15. | :16:18. | |
Today, in Blackburn, they celebrated its 200th | :16:19. | :16:20. | |
anniversary with the hope that its historical | :16:21. | :16:23. | |
significance to the North Wdst will never be forgotten. | :16:24. | :16:25. | |
The serenity and silence th`t this flotilla was never going to last. | :16:26. | :16:41. | |
CHEERING The historic short boat loaded into | :16:42. | :16:48. | |
Blackburn's worth to a roushng reception. It's is marking the 00th | :16:49. | :16:53. | |
anniversary by travelling its full length, all 127 miles. As m`ny as | :16:54. | :16:58. | |
are of the opinion, say "ayd". To the contrary, "no". Have bedn in | :16:59. | :17:01. | |
tears. It's been absolutely amazing. Amazing, the amount of people that | :17:02. | :17:08. | |
have come out and just waved the banners. Shouted, whistled, it's | :17:09. | :17:13. | |
been amazing. This journey we create an inaugural voyage made in 181 | :17:14. | :17:19. | |
when the canal first opened. That first voyage, according to reports | :17:20. | :17:25. | |
of the time, was accompanied by a hearty cheering spectators. Today | :17:26. | :17:35. | |
was much the same. Not everx water way is quite as celebrated `s this | :17:36. | :17:40. | |
one. It even had a special symphony written in its honour. What is it | :17:41. | :17:45. | |
that makes it so special? In its day it helps fire the Industrial | :17:46. | :17:48. | |
Revolution, carrying cotton, coal and will, it brought wealth and have | :17:49. | :17:54. | |
the great Lancashire towns `long its route to develop. What are we doing | :17:55. | :17:57. | |
today that we will celebratd in 200 years' time? I just cant thhnk of | :17:58. | :18:02. | |
anything that will have the same impact that the canal to it. The | :18:03. | :18:09. | |
enterprise of the people from work to Yorkshire and Lancashire who had | :18:10. | :18:13. | |
the foresight to build something so spectacular and relevant and really | :18:14. | :18:17. | |
made the country what it is now in terms of trade and today it is still | :18:18. | :18:22. | |
so relevant in terms of leisure It is part of our heritage and it | :18:23. | :18:28. | |
hasn't been forgotten. It is here in your heart, it is. Its journey | :18:29. | :18:33. | |
doesn't end here, it's headhng onwards towards Liverpool, `rriving | :18:34. | :18:39. | |
there on Sunday. That was a very fetching outfit. | :18:40. | :18:41. | |
Sport now with Richard and Manchester City fans will be | :18:42. | :18:45. | |
hoping inside knowledge can make the difference in the | :18:46. | :18:47. | |
Yes, City have one of the toughest tests in football tonight, | :18:48. | :18:58. | |
away to Barcelona in the Ch`mpions League. | :18:59. | :19:01. | |
Barca have been a real problem for City in recent seasons, | :19:02. | :19:04. | |
but this time their former lanager Pep Guardiola is in | :19:05. | :19:06. | |
He won 14 trophies in four seasons at the Camp Nou and tonight takes | :19:07. | :19:11. | |
City to his old stomping ground for the very first time. | :19:12. | :19:31. | |
With a front three to strikd fear into any defence, Barcelona away is | :19:32. | :19:39. | |
as tough as they come. No one knows that more than city's boss. I grew | :19:40. | :19:48. | |
up here as a boy. I made my career here, so it's always special. My | :19:49. | :19:53. | |
family is here, that's I am always happy. It's a good test for us to | :19:54. | :20:01. | |
play against the best team. In many ways, Pep Guardiola is trying to | :20:02. | :20:06. | |
build city in Barcelona's ilage something that hasn't gone tnnoticed | :20:07. | :20:10. | |
by the Spanish champions. I think they play more or less the same | :20:11. | :20:15. | |
style as ours. Pep Guardiol` was here for a loss of years and he | :20:16. | :20:20. | |
understands football be samd way as we do. Barcelona haven't lost at | :20:21. | :20:25. | |
home in 17 Champions League matches, but blues fancied this | :20:26. | :20:38. | |
meeting against the team who knocked them out in 2014 and 2015 fdels | :20:39. | :20:41. | |
different. I believe the te`m will beat Barcelona. I have that feeling. | :20:42. | :20:44. | |
I think it's going to be totgh. I think we are capable of getting a | :20:45. | :20:48. | |
win. If we don't, we get a draw and a point away. I believe in Pep | :20:49. | :20:52. | |
Guardiola. You knows other players and he knows what to do. But anyone | :20:53. | :21:00. | |
can do it, you can. Confident? Yes, 2-1. Pep Guardiola may well fancy | :21:01. | :21:07. | |
his chances of a successful return to the camp knew. You can hdar | :21:08. | :21:16. | |

about the rugby players It might sound like the start | :21:48. | :21:50. | |
of a joke but it actually Not surprisingly, the lift | :21:51. | :21:55. | |
in a hotel in Bath got stuck between floors when seven of the man | :21:56. | :21:58. | |
mountains squeezed in together They were stuck in there for over | :21:59. | :22:01. | |
an hour and eventually needed to be rescued | :22:02. | :22:05. | |
by the Somerset fire brigadd. And if you're wondering | :22:06. | :22:07. | |
what the biggest problems were while they were stuck, | :22:08. | :22:09. | |

to think about wrapping up, keeping But that's not an option | :22:45. | :22:47. | |
for the region's deer popul`tion. It's rutting season where stags | :22:48. | :22:51. | |
and bucks literally lock horns in a battle to secure the bhggest | :22:52. | :22:53. | |
harems of does and hinds. And it's quite a spectacle | :22:54. | :22:56. | |
as Mark Edwardson found when he went to see the deer herds | :22:57. | :22:59. | |
at Tatton Park in Cheshire. A battle over who is the biggest, | :23:00. | :23:15. | |
boldest and the best father. Going horn to horn | :23:16. | :23:18. | |
over a harem of hinds. This red deer is far | :23:19. | :23:20. | |
from winning the war, there will be many more lovd rivals | :23:21. | :23:24. | |
for this rutting stag to The last thing they want | :23:25. | :23:31. | |
to hurt each other. When they fight, all | :23:32. | :23:41. | |
that is is a show of Antlers locking together, | :23:42. | :23:43. | |
just to prove which one is It's not just the reds | :23:44. | :23:47. | |
the smaller fallow dear bucks. And occasionally fighting | :23:48. | :23:58. | |
amongst themselves. He is letting other males know | :23:59. | :24:01. | |
that this territory is This is his group and he is also | :24:02. | :24:03. | |
keeping the females together by The park's joggers and dog | :24:04. | :24:16. | |
walkers have become Well, the deer just seem | :24:17. | :24:19. | |
a little more agitated than One of them jumped over | :24:20. | :24:22. | |
the fence, a five foot And we got, what we do now, | :24:23. | :24:27. | |
if it goes after us? There is a tremendous smell coming | :24:28. | :24:34. | |
from them, As we ran past them you can almost | :24:35. | :24:36. | |
smell them before you Darren is organising deer | :24:37. | :24:43. | |
rutting walks around the thousands of acres | :24:44. | :24:50. | |
where they roam. Yeah, OK, I will come down | :24:51. | :24:52. | |
to But he is keen to remind visitors | :24:53. | :24:54. | |
that here, humans are on thd Deer's Of course we welcome | :24:55. | :24:59. | |
visitors to the park, but dogs should be kept unddr | :25:00. | :25:02. | |
control and people should kdep At this time of year they c`n act | :25:03. | :25:05. | |
aggressively to people. As autumn turns the leaves | :25:06. | :25:10. | |
from green to golden, the Probably in to the | :25:11. | :25:13. | |
middle of next month. They are quite big, aren't they | :25:14. | :25:26. | |
When that one jumped over the fence, unbelievable. How is the we`ther | :25:27. | :25:30. | |
looking? It's not going to change much over | :25:31. | :25:38. | |
the next few days. The evenhng. Today was a nice day, that's how you | :25:39. | :25:41. | |
like your weather, you will like what we have over the next few days. | :25:42. | :25:48. | |
A futurist developing, we h`ven t been exclusively drive. Thex have | :25:49. | :25:51. | |
been trying to get over the tops of the Pennines and have moved through | :25:52. | :25:55. | |
Lancashire. Not too many around now, if you do see one this evenhng, you | :25:56. | :26:00. | |
will be unlucky. Pennine ardas other than anything else. From here on | :26:01. | :26:14. | |
onwards for most of us it whll be dry and clear. Things very puiet | :26:15. | :26:18. | |
weather-wise. A light breezd and temperatures will get the chance to | :26:19. | :26:20. | |
fall down under those clear skies. Temperature is a little bit lower | :26:21. | :26:23. | |
than we have seen recently. For a rural areas they will be quhte a few | :26:24. | :26:27. | |
degrees cooler. It could be down to around 4 degrees for a short while | :26:28. | :26:30. | |
at least. The touch of frost possibly on the grass first thing | :26:31. | :26:34. | |
tomorrow morning. That will be the exception, not a widespread problem. | :26:35. | :26:38. | |
This time of year is not untsual to see pockets of mist and fog. The sun | :26:39. | :26:47. | |
should be there early. Can see the map brightens up. It will bd around, | :26:48. | :26:51. | |
a letter bit patchy cloud and there is a small chance of a peppdring of | :26:52. | :26:55. | |
showers. Particularly in thd south-east through the afternoon. | :26:56. | :27:00. | |
Again you will be a QVC mord than one or two. Most places will be very | :27:01. | :27:05. | |
quiet. The breeze will be vdry light, five, six miles per hour Not | :27:06. | :27:11. | |
a raw fuel to the weather. The numbers on the chart aren't going to | :27:12. | :27:15. | |
be wonderful. Looking at 12 or 3 at the very best. We stay dry `nd | :27:16. | :27:20. | |
fairly fine until Monday whdn it all falls apart again. That's not bad, | :27:21. | :27:28. | |
is it? It have parade on Monday that it was going to get dry agahn. In | :27:29. | :27:33. | |
the world of racing had loads of rain this morning and some of the | :27:34. | :27:39. | |
rain was blocked. Don't look at me. Thanks for watching. Goodbyd. | :27:40. | :27:52. | |
Everyone's living these amazing lives, | :27:53. | :27:55. |
