:00:00. > :00:00.Welcome to BBC Points West with Alex Lovell and Sabet Choudhury.
:00:00. > :00:20.A multi-million pound Government contract promises
:00:21. > :00:22.money for maintenance, but it's not exactly
:00:23. > :00:27.And this almost feels like it's second-best.
:00:28. > :00:30.Having a maintenance contract is fine, but it's not what Yeovil
:00:31. > :00:43.What Yeovil has done for 100 years is been an aircraft manufacturer.
:00:44. > :00:48.Trains on a mainline out of Gloucester are stopped
:00:49. > :00:51.after a boulder hit the track, following a landslide.
:00:52. > :00:58.How this nine-year-old is changing the life
:00:59. > :01:10.We hear from striker Ellis Harrison on his four strike weekend.
:01:11. > :01:23.The government has announced details of a contract -
:01:24. > :01:25.worth more than ?250 million - for Leonardo
:01:26. > :01:29.The deal will see the company, previously known as Agusta Westland,
:01:30. > :01:31.providing service and training support for the UK military's
:01:32. > :01:35.But while the government says it will safeguard up to 500 jobs,
:01:36. > :01:37.a union says it's old news and in any case does little
:01:38. > :01:40.to safeguard the long term future of the Yeovil site.
:01:41. > :01:41.Our Somerset Correspondent, Clinton Rogers reports.
:01:42. > :01:45.The Minister in charge of buying things for the Armed Forces came
:01:46. > :01:48.to Yeovil keen to trumpet today's announcement as great news
:01:49. > :01:53.for the local economy, in particular the workforce here.
:01:54. > :02:00.It's a deal that will secure the cutting edge aircraft
:02:01. > :02:03.for the Royal Navy and the army, and I know it will support hundreds
:02:04. > :02:05.of skilled jobs right across the south-west.
:02:06. > :02:09.It's all about these helicopters, the Wildcat.
:02:10. > :02:11.62 of which were made in Yeovil, for service
:02:12. > :02:22.Now, the contract is valued at ?271 million, and it's
:02:23. > :02:24.essentially for the maintenance of the helicopters for
:02:25. > :02:27.But actually, what was announced today was just the latest stage
:02:28. > :02:32.of a 30 year contract that was signed back in 2012.
:02:33. > :02:35.Critics argue that it's really recycling old news,
:02:36. > :02:38.and that in any case, what this place really needs
:02:39. > :02:48.And yet, last year the Ministry of Defence decided not to let even
:02:49. > :02:50.Leonardo build the new Apache attack helicopter, preferring
:02:51. > :03:05.And this almost feels like it's second-best.
:03:06. > :03:07.All the aircraft in this production shed are here
:03:08. > :03:14.The company says it is talking to countries around the world.
:03:15. > :03:19.Not firm orders yet, but like any business such as ours,
:03:20. > :03:22.we know where the customer is, and we know what their
:03:23. > :03:25.And we're working very hard to land those orders this year.
:03:26. > :03:29.There remains a question mark over the equipment used to make
:03:30. > :03:33.the airframes for the Wildcat, and its suggestions that could be
:03:34. > :03:47.Even though the equipment is actually owned by
:03:48. > :03:51.The minister says no decision has not been made yet.
:03:52. > :03:53.Well, fears about the future of the plant were aired
:03:54. > :03:57.Paddy Ashdown, the former MP for Yeovil, told the House of Lords
:03:58. > :03:59.of his concerns that jobs might go overseas.
:04:00. > :04:05.Afterwards he went into our Westminster studios to tell me more.
:04:06. > :04:08.We are polite folk in Yeovil, we love it when a minister comes
:04:09. > :04:13.But I'm honestly not terribly certain why she did.
:04:14. > :04:19.I mean, these aren't new orders she was announcing.
:04:20. > :04:21.They are old orders secured by David Laws
:04:22. > :04:26.What she could be doing is insisting that the kit
:04:27. > :04:29.that the Ministry of Defence owns, that is not allowed to go
:04:30. > :04:34.to Poland with the jobs, unless there is a proper study that
:04:35. > :04:36.takes into account all the factors about whether
:04:37. > :04:50.My view is that if such a study were to take place,
:04:51. > :04:52.Yeovil would be shown to be just as competitive as Poland,
:04:53. > :04:55.and I can't understand why from the last six weeks pressing
:04:56. > :04:57.the minister, she refuses to do this.
:04:58. > :05:00.Do you think by the kit going off to Poland, that spells the end
:05:01. > :05:03.Of course it doesn't, but it means that 200 jobs
:05:04. > :05:06.which could be sustained in Yeovil, if Yeovil is indeed competitive
:05:07. > :05:09.and I think if you looked at the facts in detail,
:05:10. > :05:11.you'll see that they were, those 200 jobs would stay in Yeovil,
:05:12. > :05:15.stay on the Yeovil site and add to the viability of the Yeovil
:05:16. > :05:17.site in what are very difficult economic times.
:05:18. > :05:19.The government promises that it will do everything it can in this
:05:20. > :05:23.post Brexit era to keep jobs in Britain.
:05:24. > :05:25.Why will they not, then, do a proper study to ensure
:05:26. > :05:28.that the jobs can be kept on the Yeovil site and don't
:05:29. > :05:41.necessarily have to be shipped off to Poland?
:05:42. > :05:47.Surely having a maintenance contract is not a bad deal after all, is it?
:05:48. > :05:51.Having a maintenance contract is fine, but it's not what Yeovil's
:05:52. > :05:55.What Yeovil's done for 100 years is an aircraft manufacturer.
:05:56. > :05:58.By the way, some of the most world leading aircraft for the service
:05:59. > :06:01.That's not just assembly and not maintenance,
:06:02. > :06:03.it's the design, the technology, the engineering, all of those
:06:04. > :06:06.high-class design teams which Yeovil is now a centre of the aerospace
:06:07. > :06:09.industry will be damaged if Yeovil's allowed to dribble away
:06:10. > :06:12.and to become just a maintenance and assembly area.
:06:13. > :06:16.I'm determined that won't happen, and I'm sure that the people
:06:17. > :06:18.of Yeovil will believe that if the government isn't prepared
:06:19. > :06:21.to go the last mile to ensure the jobs which could be kept
:06:22. > :06:24.in Yeovil are kept in Yeovil, many people will regard that
:06:25. > :06:29.as a frankly, an insult to the technicians and skilled
:06:30. > :06:34.engineers who for 100 years in Yeovil have provided world
:06:35. > :06:36.beating aircraft for the armed services.
:06:37. > :06:37.You know, they deserve better than that.
:06:38. > :06:44.A body found in the search for a missing Bristol paramedic has
:06:45. > :06:52.been confirmed as that of missing jogger David Skeen.
:06:53. > :06:55.The 51-year-old was last seen on Tuesday after going for a run.
:06:56. > :06:57.He'd recently moved to Wales from the West.
:06:58. > :07:00.A man has been charged with attempted murder after a crash
:07:01. > :07:04.Lukasz Jarosz, 34, from Wilton, near Salisbury, was arrested
:07:05. > :07:10.A 13-year-old front seat passenger suffered a leg injury and remains
:07:11. > :07:25.It is understood that Mr Jarosz found his wife
:07:26. > :07:32.Three people have been taken to hospital after a lorry shed part
:07:33. > :07:35.of its load of stones on to a car during a crash in Gloucestershire.
:07:36. > :07:37.The lorry was carrying a load of Cotswold stone
:07:38. > :07:39.when it was involved in an an accident on
:07:40. > :07:43.A 56-year-old man was taken to hospital with serious injuries
:07:44. > :07:44.and two other people have minor injuries.
:07:45. > :07:48.A large boulder which fell forty feet down a cliff onto a railway
:07:49. > :07:49.line in Gloucestershire is continuing to cause
:07:50. > :07:53.Engineers have spent the day breaking it up into smaller pieces -
:07:54. > :07:56.but Network Rail say the line may not reopen before the morning.
:07:57. > :08:08.A boulder, six feet by four, which came tumbling down a steep
:08:09. > :08:12.It was fortunate train on the other line spotted it first
:08:13. > :08:17.Engineers have been on the track all day, breaking
:08:18. > :08:25.It had clearly broken through metal netting and cables,
:08:26. > :08:27.drilled into the tight cutting to minimise the impact
:08:28. > :08:35.We have had some minor falls from time to time,
:08:36. > :08:38.which is why the netting is there, to help the cutting
:08:39. > :08:42.Well, it's not designed, built to cope with anything
:08:43. > :08:44.of the size that we saw falling onto the track today.
:08:45. > :08:47.Trains from Gloucester to Swindon have been able to pass
:08:48. > :08:50.through here at five miles per hour, but commuters wanting to get
:08:51. > :08:52.from Swindon to Gloucester have had to use a bus service.
:08:53. > :08:54.That may continue while Network Rail's investigations
:08:55. > :08:59.We need to check that all the signalling equipment
:09:00. > :09:02.and the track itself is safe to run trains over.
:09:03. > :09:06.It's pretty robust, but it had a serious knock today.
:09:07. > :09:14.We're also taking some investigations into what is still up
:09:15. > :09:16.there on the cutting wall, to see if there's
:09:17. > :09:25.likely to come down, and what we need to about that.
:09:26. > :09:27.The tight, rocky ravines here are a known problem
:09:28. > :09:30.It's close to this tunnel, which has undergone major
:09:31. > :09:32.repairs in recent years because of instability
:09:33. > :09:36.It could be that CCTV, or remote movement sensors could be
:09:37. > :09:38.installed here in future, which would raise the alarm
:09:39. > :09:45.You're watching Monday's Points West with Seb and Alex.
:09:46. > :09:54.Coming up a little later in the programme...
:09:55. > :10:01.We meet Bristol Rovers' cereal goal-scorer.
:10:02. > :10:05.Although it is fairly mild for the last couple of days, colder
:10:06. > :10:07.conditions developing by Thursday. The rest of your forecast for the
:10:08. > :10:14.end of the programme. We'll be asking him that vital
:10:15. > :10:17.questions. Sir Ranulph Fiennes is this evening
:10:18. > :10:19.battling the elements - about to start climbing the highest
:10:20. > :10:22.mountain in South America. The 72-year-old adventurer
:10:23. > :10:25.from Somerset, who has already climbed four of the world's toughest
:10:26. > :10:41.mountains, is tonight somewhere I think I said at right! At least
:10:42. > :10:43.that's the right amount we think! -- the right mountain.
:10:44. > :10:46.It's part of an ongoing world-record attempt to scale the highest
:10:47. > :10:48.peak on each continent - all to raise money for charity.
:10:49. > :10:52.Sir Ranulph Fiennes doing what he does best, and showing no
:10:53. > :10:55.This evening, he's somewhere on the side of the highest
:10:56. > :10:57.mountain in South America, about to start climbing.
:10:58. > :10:59.We've got to acclimatise, like you do on Everest.
:11:00. > :11:02.And so we're acclimatising for a day.
:11:03. > :11:04.The last sort of camp before the summit day
:11:05. > :11:09.is at about 20,000 feet, or 19,000 feet.
:11:10. > :11:15.The summit day will be the worst of all, and it includes a one mile
:11:16. > :11:17.highly exposed traverse, right across near the top,
:11:18. > :11:20.with a 2000 foot drop immediately below.
:11:21. > :11:23.So far, his exploits have cost him dear.
:11:24. > :11:26.Two heart attacks, a double heart bypass, a cancer operation and half
:11:27. > :11:31.of each of the fingers and thumb on his left hand.
:11:32. > :11:34.But as we know, Sir Ranulph is no quitter.
:11:35. > :11:38.He's trying to become the first person in the world to scale
:11:39. > :11:41.the highest peak on every one of the world's continents.
:11:42. > :11:47.He's already ticked off the ice caps and all of these -
:11:48. > :11:49.if he manages the Argentinian mountain - he'll
:11:50. > :11:53.Over the last 30 years, Sir Ranulph has raised a staggering
:11:54. > :12:03.This time he's fundraising for Marie Curie, a cause close
:12:04. > :12:06.to his heart after he lost his first wife to cancer.
:12:07. > :12:09.It's fantastic what Sir Ranulph Fiennes is doing for Marie Curie.
:12:10. > :12:11.It's an epic challenge, and appreciate the fact that he
:12:12. > :12:17.And it will not only raise funds for the charity,
:12:18. > :12:23.Sir Ranulph knows that it's going to be tough,
:12:24. > :12:33.but he's hoping that with a bit of luck, he'll manage it.
:12:34. > :12:37.We will keep tabs on him as best we can. I hope he does, good luck to
:12:38. > :12:41.him. He is an unstoppable machine. The opening of Bristol's flagship
:12:42. > :12:44.Metrobus scheme may only be nine months away but the City Council has
:12:45. > :12:47.admitted there's still no-one The ?200 million project
:12:48. > :12:53.promises to ease the gridlock in the city

:12:57. > :12:59.is on Winterstoke Road where some So Robin - with no bus operator,
:13:00. > :13:14.how concerned should we be? This is a huge year for Bristol's
:13:15. > :13:19.transport scene. The biggest, they reckon, since the M32 was opened in
:13:20. > :13:24.the 1970s. With this opening in the autumn of this year, there is still
:13:25. > :13:31.no bus operator chosen to run it. Equally, no fair schedule setup, so
:13:32. > :13:44.donor how much the tickets will be. -- fair schedule -- fare. This is
:13:45. > :13:52.linking, will take bus passengers to Temple Meads. They reckon it will
:13:53. > :13:55.have -- half journey times. I have been finding out more.
:13:56. > :13:57.For commuters in Bristol, it's become the new dawn chorus.
:13:58. > :14:03.Roadworks upon roadworks, up on roadworks.
:14:04. > :14:05.A city dug up and relaid for the Metrobus scheme.
:14:06. > :14:08.For Paul Turner, his drive in to work has become
:14:09. > :14:16.If you look to your left, there is a vast Hull in the road.
:14:17. > :14:24.A journey that would usually take eight minutes through Bradley Stoke
:14:25. > :14:27.It's been 18 months of absolute Purgatory.
:14:28. > :14:30.We had a situation where the delays in the morning and the evening,
:14:31. > :14:35.coming into work and going home, have been astronomical.
:14:36. > :14:37.The roads are moving again in Bradley Stoke now,
:14:38. > :14:44.and things will improve further with this new link road close by.
:14:45. > :14:47.We very much want to apologise for particularly the fact that it
:14:48. > :14:53.But what we're delivering the end of the day is
:14:54. > :14:56.They've asked us for improved public transport.
:14:57. > :14:58.When it opened in the autumn, that public transport scheme
:14:59. > :15:01.will look a little like this similar project in Cambridge.
:15:02. > :15:04.Guided buses running on dedicated lanes, reliable
:15:05. > :15:13.The scale of the work is best seen from the air,
:15:14. > :15:15.one route heads West- East from Ashton Vale
:15:16. > :15:17.to Temple Meads, the other skirts up to Cribbs Causeway
:15:18. > :15:21.and Emerson's Green, spanning this bridge over the M32.
:15:22. > :15:23.But while the infrastructure is now falling into place,
:15:24. > :15:25.with nine months to go, there's still no word
:15:26. > :15:29.I can't give you a date, because I'm dependent
:15:30. > :15:31.on the negotiations, the conversations that we having
:15:32. > :15:34.with operators, which as I say, are commercially confidential
:15:35. > :15:39.So will all this be the answer to the city's crippling congestion?
:15:40. > :15:47.We will start to find out later this month,
:15:48. > :15:50.when the south Bristol link road opens to traffic.
:15:51. > :15:54.Then, motorists will get an idea if it's all been worth the wait.
:15:55. > :16:00.We find out next Monday that the South Bristol Link Road will open.
:16:01. > :16:06.Once that is open, another major piece of road work begins in South
:16:07. > :16:09.Bristol. We do have an end in sight, it is this autumn, but still plenty
:16:10. > :16:11.of disruption for Bristol's motorists before we get there.
:16:12. > :16:15.Absolutely. Thank you very much. An independent report has
:16:16. > :16:17.declared Bristol's year as European Green Capital
:16:18. > :16:18.'an undoubted success'. Hundreds of events took place
:16:19. > :16:21.in 2015, which saw a rise in the number of visitors
:16:22. > :16:23.to the city. But, following criticism
:16:24. > :16:24.from Liberal Democrats, Today it concluded the year had been
:16:25. > :16:34.well-run, with a positive legacy. We'll have plenty more on that in
:16:35. > :16:40.the 10pm news. A nine year old boy from Swindon has
:16:41. > :16:43.sent his special motorised wheelchair to a girl in Bosnia
:16:44. > :16:46.who has the same condition as him. Oscar Moulding has muscular
:16:47. > :16:49.dystrophy, and when he got a new wheelchair he wanted
:16:50. > :16:55.to give his old one to his friend Here's our Wiltshire
:16:56. > :16:59.reporter Will Glennon. Thanks to his state of the art
:17:00. > :17:04.motorised wheelchair Oscar Moulding can do most of the things that
:17:05. > :17:07.make him fit in. Whether it's at home or at school,
:17:08. > :17:23.since he was four years old. I can play with my brother. Get my
:17:24. > :17:29.toys. Do all the things that I want. I can race around in my chair a lot.
:17:30. > :17:35.If he wants to sit at the table, it doesn't matter how high the table is
:17:36. > :17:36.coming he can reach. He needed those facilities to get the most out of
:17:37. > :17:37.life. The old wheelchair was great,
:17:38. > :17:40.but when he grew out of it and got another one,
:17:41. > :17:43.he wanted his old one His family are friends
:17:44. > :17:45.with a family there, They raised the funds
:17:46. > :17:49.to ship it over. Now little Sophija says it's
:17:50. > :18:05.going to change her life. I can open the door. I can reach
:18:06. > :18:12.things. She can reach things by herself, and maybe people, healthy
:18:13. > :18:16.people, think that they took that things for granted. But trust me,
:18:17. > :18:18.she opened the door for the first time in her life, and she's almost
:18:19. > :18:20.nine. He's delighted he's
:18:21. > :18:34.been able to help. I just think of her like Oscar,
:18:35. > :18:39.raising around with her friends, going from class to class at school,
:18:40. > :18:43.taking herself to dinner and into the playground. Just joining in with
:18:44. > :18:47.life, how everybody else does. Do you think it will make a really big
:18:48. > :18:49.difference? Yes, it will change her life completely.
:18:50. > :18:51.They raised enough money to pay for any future maintenance,
:18:52. > :18:54.so the chair should be good for many years to come.
:18:55. > :19:07.A simple act of kindness that's brought joy to two young lives.
:19:08. > :19:13.Oscar, you are very thoughtful. A little star. Staying with stars...
:19:14. > :19:15.There's no doubt who produced the stand out sporting
:19:16. > :19:17.Bristol Rovers striker Ellis Harrison scored four
:19:18. > :19:19.goals in his side's big win against Northampton.
:19:20. > :19:26.Ali Durden is here - have they got another big
:19:27. > :19:29.It was incredible, and so quick. They have another star on their
:19:30. > :19:31.hands. He's the first Rovers player
:19:32. > :19:33.to score four in a game He went on to play in the Premier
:19:34. > :19:49.League and for his country. He is undoubtedly a talent. Would
:19:50. > :19:51.you like to know more about him? Yes.
:19:52. > :19:55.He's still only 22, but has been with the club since he was 15
:19:56. > :19:56.and already played 143 games for them.
:19:57. > :19:59.A career highlight, scoring at Wembley as Rovers were promoted
:20:00. > :20:02.But this was his best performance - including a first-half hat-trick
:20:03. > :20:05.which we timed at six minutes and 41 seconds.
:20:06. > :20:17.But he saved the very best until last - have a look at this.

:21:13. > :21:15.After winning back to back promotions, dare supporters begin
:21:16. > :21:23.The best game they played all season. It was coming anyway, we had
:21:24. > :21:26.loads of chances over the season but not putting them away. We put more
:21:27. > :21:32.chances away today. One of the best matches. Really good. They are going
:21:33. > :21:35.the right way, and who knows? Should make the play-offs.
:21:36. > :21:37.Rovers next opponents are Fleetwood who held Bristol City
:21:38. > :21:41.New signing Milan Djuric couldn't take that chance.
:21:42. > :21:44.The sides will replay next week and both will be in this

:22:30. > :22:32.His coach, Jol Finck, is also moving to Bath to take up
:22:33. > :22:43.That literally is a talent pool, isn't it? Just bath. Thank you very
:22:44. > :22:46.much. A tap dancing team from Swindon
:22:47. > :22:49.are celebrating after being the driving force behind the UK's
:22:50. > :22:51.victory in the World Championships. They supplied the coach,
:22:52. > :22:53.and most of the tappers, for the winning routine
:22:54. > :22:55.in the group dance. And two young stars also stormed
:22:56. > :22:58.to victory in the duo category. As Lee Madan reports, it's not
:22:59. > :23:01.the first time they've won. Five, six, seven, eight world
:23:02. > :23:05.champions from Swindon, People sometimes think that you're
:23:06. > :23:17.not telling the truth, but you are. Among the winners, Kai
:23:18. > :23:20.and Marcus, who also defended their junior
:23:21. > :23:21.duo title, too. But being a world champion
:23:22. > :23:24.for the second time has its issues. When I got back the first time,
:23:25. > :23:28.there were a bit, "Oh, well done!" And we had like the sort
:23:29. > :23:30.of party and everything. But the second time it was a bit,
:23:31. > :23:33."Oh, well done again, So, no party and straight
:23:34. > :23:37.back to practising. Discipline is crucial to get
:23:38. > :23:41.to the top in the top world, My parents used to get annoyed
:23:42. > :23:48.because I used to be quite And so they put me in a dance class
:23:49. > :23:55.to get me out of all of that, And it went to Germany,
:23:56. > :23:59.where the championships were held and where these tapas
:24:00. > :24:06.held their nerve. It's quite surreal,
:24:07. > :24:09.especially the first time. The first day you go in there,
:24:10. > :24:12.there are people from 20 countries, a thousand dances may be there,
:24:13. > :24:15.and you just kind of like, We've had quite an eventful
:24:16. > :24:22.journey this year. We've had injuries,
:24:23. > :24:26.we've had dislocations, we've had sickness bugs whilst
:24:27. > :24:28.we were there. The team were certainly tested,
:24:29. > :24:30.but look at these trophies. Proof that hard work
:24:31. > :24:33.and determination can pay off. Keeping Swindon as the town
:24:34. > :24:53.at the very top for topping. It is all the talk of the UK. This
:24:54. > :24:57.storm coming our way. All these papers talking about snow. Four
:24:58. > :24:59.inches of snow, it's all coming. We have got to ask, is it going
:25:00. > :25:12.Some parts of the country will be, in fact the Met office put warnings
:25:13. > :25:16.out -- be snowy. Including out towards Exmoor and the south-west,
:25:17. > :25:22.parts of Wales as well. We are not expecting snow, it shouldn't be too
:25:23. > :25:25.much of an issue in the inland parts of southern England including a good
:25:26. > :25:30.part of our region. That's not to say there won't be a number of you
:25:31. > :25:34.tweeting, e-mailing saying you are seeing snow showers. But that is
:25:35. > :25:39.distinct from it being a warning event like we have seen in previous
:25:40. > :25:44.winters, most notably 2010 and 2011. The forecast for tomorrow, we are
:25:45. > :25:48.going to be in a somewhat milder phase of whether as we run through
:25:49. > :25:52.the next couple of days at least. Tomorrow will be mostly cloudy, some
:25:53. > :25:56.brightness about, particularly in the first part of the morning. It
:25:57. > :26:00.will be a breezy day as well. Through the afternoon, it will be a
:26:01. > :26:03.weakening, a weak front moving in from west to east, will introduce
:26:04. > :26:10.patchy outbreaks of mostly light rain. A wider look at how things are
:26:11. > :26:14.shaping up. We had a front across us earlier today, that is towards the
:26:15. > :26:18.East now. A few showers aside, dry for the majority during the course
:26:19. > :26:24.of tonight. Tomorrow, a second front running in from midday and into the
:26:25. > :26:28.afternoon. The developers we will then watch for will be noticeable
:26:29. > :26:34.into the latter stages of Wednesday. First, particularly on Thursday in
:26:35. > :26:38.the shape of cold air. Most of us free of showers, there will be a few
:26:39. > :26:41.around feeding them through Gloucestershire, parts of Somerset,
:26:42. > :26:46.for example. Towards daybreak tomorrow, temperatures fall of us
:26:47. > :26:50.should be at rage of generally three to five Celsius. Some brightness
:26:51. > :26:53.around during the course of the morning, always in competition with
:26:54. > :26:57.a fair amount of cloud. Some patchy rain towards the west Somerset
:26:58. > :27:02.during the morning, most areas dry until we get through until lunchtime
:27:03. > :27:06.onwards, the front of pushes its way through from west to east.
:27:07. > :27:10.Temperatures tomorrow getting up to as high as about nine Celsius. No
:27:11. > :27:16.time to cover Thursday, we'll do that tomorrow. We'll keep a close
:27:17. > :27:17.our eyes we get nearer. I'm guessing snow! Until next time, the 10pm.
:27:18. > :27:24.Goodbye.
