Welcome to BBC Points West with Liz Beacon and David Garmston. | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
Our main story tonight: How green is this valley? | :00:08. | :00:10. | |
Plans for an environmentally friendly business | :00:11. | :00:11. | |
park near Stroud which could create 4,000 jobs. | :00:12. | :00:21. | |
The most sustainable stadium in the world and even a canal. Is this | :00:22. | :00:31. | |
could turn out to be the biggest project in the area since the 1950s. | :00:32. | :00:33. | |
But some locals complain the increased traffic make | :00:34. | :00:35. | |
If you snooze you lose - A call for voters to wake up | :00:36. | :00:50. | |
and smell the election fever as the campaign for a metro | :00:51. | :00:52. | |
The teenager battling cancer who raises money for others - | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
And saluting the town that spoke for a nation - | :00:57. | :01:02. | |
we're in Wootton Bassett ten years on from the first repatriations. | :01:03. | :01:11. | |
Details of a huge green technology development right next | :01:12. | :01:15. | |
to M5 in Gloucestershire were unveiled today. | :01:16. | :01:19. | |
The plans involve offices and industrial units | :01:20. | :01:21. | |
as well as a brand new football stadium and a nature reserve. | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
It's all the dream of Dale Vince, founder | :01:26. | :01:27. | |
of the green energy company, Ecotricity. | :01:28. | :01:28. | |
But for some people living nearby, his proposals are an unnecessary | :01:29. | :01:31. | |
Here's our Gloucestershire reporter, Steve Knibbs. | :01:32. | :01:41. | |
These are ambitious plans - A green science technology | :01:42. | :01:44. | |
business park on one side - which ecotricity claims | :01:45. | :01:47. | |
will attract up to 4,000 jobs, and on the other side a high tech | :01:48. | :01:50. | |
sporting facility with a new 10000 seat Forest Green Rovers | :01:51. | :01:53. | |
And everything pushing the boundaries of sustainability. | :01:54. | :02:02. | |
That is what we like to do. Somebody has to question, would we adhere to | :02:03. | :02:11. | |
green standards and the answer is we want to do better than that, so our | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
buildings will be the most sustainable buildings that have been | :02:17. | :02:17. | |
built yet. Today, companies | :02:18. | :02:18. | |
interested in building and being part of the ecopark | :02:19. | :02:19. | |
quizzed Dale Vince A vision of tapping | :02:20. | :02:21. | |
into and promoting the green When you put like-minded businesses | :02:22. | :02:34. | |
like this together, they starts barking ideas and opportunities to | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
work with each other and spin of new businesses, and that helps grow the | :02:40. | :02:44. | |
sustainable economy and also local services and the economy to support | :02:45. | :02:48. | |
them. Then they build up opportunities to move abroad. | :02:49. | :02:49. | |
But with a project this size come concerns - | :02:50. | :02:52. | |
many locals in Eastington say junction 13 - the gateway to Stroud | :02:53. | :02:55. | |
Ecotricity say they'll fix this with a new dual carriageway | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
But also the ecopark isn't part of Stroud's recently | :03:00. | :03:01. | |
published local plan - and those opposing the park say | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
there's just no clearly identified need for it. | :03:05. | :03:11. | |
We have very high employment and the local area, so the risk of a | :03:12. | :03:21. | |
shortage means there is no requirement for extra jobs, and we | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
need development space for all businesses in the near future. It is | :03:27. | :03:31. | |
the biggest and most complex planning decision made here since | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
Berkeley power station in the 1950s. It is still early days and hasn't | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
even gone through planning yet. If it does go through planning it will | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
be at least three years before the first ball is kicked in anger at | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
what is hoped to be the most sustainable football stadium in the | :03:51. | :03:51. | |
world. A driver remains in hospital | :03:52. | :03:52. | |
after a serious crash Two lorries collided just | :03:53. | :03:54. | |
after fouro'clock this morning. A second driver was released | :03:55. | :03:57. | |
from hospital this afternoon. The road was shut for | :03:58. | :03:59. | |
most of the day whilst In Bristol one person has been left | :04:00. | :04:01. | |
with serious injuries after a collision between a car | :04:02. | :04:08. | |
and a bus. It happened in the early hours | :04:09. | :04:10. | |
of this morning on Wells road. There were long delays to traffic | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
but the road has since re-opened. Workers at Mini in Swindon | :04:14. | :04:20. | |
are taking part in a series of eight 24 hour walk outs, | :04:21. | :04:23. | |
in a dispute over pensions. The Unite Union is protesting | :04:24. | :04:25. | |
over Mini's owners, BMW's plans to ditch the company's | :04:26. | :04:27. | |
final salary pension scheme. It claims some workers could lose up | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
to ?160,000 in retirement income. BMW says it has to act now to secure | :04:31. | :04:33. | |
the long term viability A publicity drive is underway | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
to tell 900,000 people in the West that they're | :04:37. | :04:51. | |
about to get a new leader. Today it was confirmed that six | :04:52. | :04:54. | |
candidates will be on the ballot paper for the so-called metro mayor, | :04:55. | :04:57. | |
covering Bristol, South Gloucestershire and Bath | :04:58. | :04:59. | |
and North East Somerset. But getting voters | :05:00. | :05:00. | |
interested, let alone Here's our political | :05:01. | :05:02. | |
editor, Paul Barltrop. The government is pumping money | :05:03. | :05:12. | |
into publicising the contest, from billboards on the streets, | :05:13. | :05:14. | |
to adverts on social media - though that's sparked plenty | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
of critical comments. The latest is a video | :05:18. | :05:18. | |
with something of a local flavour: people who'll come under | :05:19. | :05:21. | |
the new mayor? Farmers market. Supermarket. Rugby. | :05:22. | :05:39. | |
We may not always see eye to eye but we care about where we live and we | :05:40. | :05:43. | |
need to make a living and get around. These things excite us all | :05:44. | :05:51. | |
which is why we are acting on the issues that we all care about. | :05:52. | :05:53. | |
people who'll come under the new mayor? | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
Especially when even the name has proved difficult. | :05:58. | :05:59. | |
The government don't use the term 'metromayor'. | :06:00. | :06:01. | |
They prefer to talk about a 'mayor', but different to the elected mayor | :06:02. | :06:04. | |
The new person will take charge of the snappily-titled West | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
That's been abbreviated to WECA, and it's already been | :06:08. | :06:10. | |
holding meetings involving the leaders from the three | :06:11. | :06:12. | |
But, yet again, the name's proving a thorny issue! | :06:13. | :06:26. | |
I do not like the word, WECA. It is the West of England combined | :06:27. | :06:35. | |
authority. I wanted to be called the west of England combined authority | :06:36. | :06:38. | |
and we will have a West of England combined authority Mayor. | :06:39. | :06:40. | |
And there's plenty of that on their own video, | :06:41. | :06:43. | |
put out to encourage people to vote on May the 4th. | :06:44. | :06:46. | |
Well, the Bristol Post is determined that its readers | :06:47. | :06:48. | |
This was its front page today - with a very stark warning | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
that the west is "sleepwalking" into this election. | :06:53. | :06:54. | |
And I'm pleased to say that Mike Norton, Editor | :06:55. | :06:56. | |
Mike - You've been quite tough on your readers today - | :06:57. | :07:03. | |
Why do you think enthusiasm appears to be so low? I am concerned we are | :07:04. | :07:17. | |
sleepwalking into the election and not enough people realise the person | :07:18. | :07:21. | |
who wins this election will have a lot of power and the deciding vote | :07:22. | :07:28. | |
on the spending of ?1 billion of funding, devolved to the greater | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
authority. What do you think of the field of candidates? I think it is | :07:34. | :07:39. | |
quite underwhelming and how we look from the outside worries me because | :07:40. | :07:45. | |
this election has not been able to attract really high-profile | :07:46. | :07:51. | |
candidates that we should be having. In Manchester, Andy Burnham is the | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
well-known candidate for the is nobody like that. And that person | :07:56. | :08:00. | |
needs to have a presence, particularly in London, so whoever | :08:01. | :08:04. | |
wins has to be able to bang on doors in London and they worry nobody here | :08:05. | :08:09. | |
is able to do that. I have been doing interviews on the streets and | :08:10. | :08:13. | |
a lot of people are getting confused with the Metro Bus. It is similar | :08:14. | :08:19. | |
and that we are building a network that doesn't have provide that and | :08:20. | :08:23. | |
we are creating a council that doesn't have a base yet. You are | :08:24. | :08:28. | |
calling it, wake up for the Greater Bristol. You want to call it the | :08:29. | :08:34. | |
Mayor of Greater Bristol. Do you think that name will make any | :08:35. | :08:37. | |
difference to the perception of this post? Once again it is how we are | :08:38. | :08:46. | |
perceived outside the region. Outside, what people know is Bristol | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
and Bath so it should be either Greater Bristol or the Bristol and | :08:51. | :08:58. | |
Bath region. We have other Mayors as well. It is confusing and I | :08:59. | :09:02. | |
understand why people are confused but they need to wake up and hold | :09:03. | :09:08. | |
whoever gets this job to account. And you're going to do your best to | :09:09. | :09:12. | |
make sure people do wake up. I will try. Thank you for coming in. | :09:13. | :09:16. | |
And in our late bulletin in the 10 o'clock news tonight, | :09:17. | :09:18. | |
we'll be hearing from someone who's been pushing the government | :09:19. | :09:21. | |
to introduce this role for the past decade. | :09:22. | :09:26. | |
It might have been mis-sold up until now but a lot of people will see | :09:27. | :09:33. | |
over the next year what the Mayor can do for them. It will be the most | :09:34. | :09:40. | |
directly involved leader they have ever elected and it will be a real | :09:41. | :09:41. | |
benefit. Join us for that. And we'd like you to get involved | :09:42. | :09:44. | |
too and join us as we debate all issues surrounding | :09:45. | :09:48. | |
the new mayor. You've made a little film | :09:49. | :09:49. | |
all about it, haven't you? Bristol already has a Lord May and | :09:50. | :10:03. | |
unelected WECA putt Mayor and now a third is on the way. Voters here go | :10:04. | :10:15. | |
to the polls for the new role. It is called the Metro Mayor. They will | :10:16. | :10:20. | |
have powers over housing and transport and ?30 million a year to | :10:21. | :10:24. | |
spend on infrastructure. If you would like to attend the debate or | :10:25. | :10:28. | |
put a question to the candidate, let us know. | :10:29. | :10:35. | |
Coming soon. That will be transmitted later this month and all | :10:36. | :10:44. | |
the candidates will be there and will be taking questions. | :10:45. | :10:44. | |
Well, it's Liz and David with you this evening, | :10:45. | :10:47. | |
Still to come on tonight's Points West. | :10:48. | :10:50. | |
Nick Knowles joins us live from the latest DIYSOS project | :10:51. | :10:53. | |
And we'll have joy, we'll have fun, we'll have a season in the sun. | :10:54. | :11:03. | |
We look ahead to the summer with Gloucestershire's cricketers. | :11:04. | :11:15. | |
A charity has called a 13-year-old girl from Bristol | :11:16. | :11:17. | |
"an inspiration", for thinking of others whilst battling cancer. | :11:18. | :11:21. | |
Tatiana Stankovic Davis is being treated for leukemia | :11:22. | :11:23. | |
but what she's been doing to pass the long hours is already | :11:24. | :11:26. | |
Andy Howard has been to visit her at Bristol Children's Hospital. | :11:27. | :11:33. | |
For the second time in her short life, Tatiana has cancer. | :11:34. | :11:40. | |
And you just feel like you can't cope sometimes. | :11:41. | :11:45. | |
There's lots of decisions being made... | :11:46. | :11:55. | |
It is just annoying because you want it to be back to normal life | :11:56. | :11:58. | |
She's been in this hospital room for more than a month. | :11:59. | :12:05. | |
But when she feels well enough, she escapes, | :12:06. | :12:07. | |
This is the model I got for finishing chemo this year, | :12:08. | :12:16. | |
I mean, there are days when Mum and Dad are sad. | :12:17. | :12:25. | |
You know, why is this happening to your own precious child. | :12:26. | :12:31. | |
But then you see a smiling face, you actually know that life goes on. | :12:32. | :12:37. | |
And you actually enjoy that day as a family. | :12:38. | :12:42. | |
It's got a dentist and a photography studio. | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
Despite being at her lowest point, in the past few weeks Tatiana has | :12:47. | :12:50. | |
She's decided to raise money for other children, | :12:51. | :12:56. | |
so they have something to play with whilst they're | :12:57. | :12:58. | |
In return, her dad Simon will shave off his beard. | :12:59. | :13:04. | |
So far, Tatiana has raised more than ?8,000. | :13:05. | :13:11. | |
All for a charity which supplies Lego to hospitals. | :13:12. | :13:24. | |
I'm quite precious about it as you can imagine but as soon as Simon | :13:25. | :13:31. | |
suggested it, I thought let's see how it goes and the amount of money | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
is just phenomenal. It is probably about 10% of turnover. She has had | :13:36. | :13:43. | |
numerous operations and hundreds of scans and she has been prodded and | :13:44. | :13:47. | |
pooled, quite often when all she has wanted to do is actually sleep. So | :13:48. | :13:54. | |
to actually deal with that and then to be thinking of others is | :13:55. | :13:56. | |
outstanding. I just feel it was nice to be | :13:57. | :13:59. | |
helping others and making What a difficult road she is on and | :14:00. | :14:26. | |
we send you our very best wishes for a fast recovery. | :14:27. | :14:27. | |
As he just mentioned, part of Tatiana's fundraising | :14:28. | :14:30. | |
So here they are, father and daughter, before this - | :14:31. | :14:34. | |
the moment Simon had his beard completely shaved off to help boost | :14:35. | :14:37. | |
And this is how the proud dad looks today. | :14:38. | :14:48. | |
Wootton Bassett was for many years synonymous with the compassion shown | :14:49. | :14:51. | |
The town even had 'royal' added to its name in recognition | :14:52. | :14:56. | |
of the way in which it responded to the repatriations that came | :14:57. | :14:59. | |
It's now ten years since RAF Lyneham was chosen as the regular | :15:00. | :15:03. | |
A moment of silence, remembrance, respect. | :15:04. | :15:16. | |
Captured by many cameras and broadcast around the world. | :15:17. | :15:26. | |
That silence and the first hearses coming up, that never leaves | :15:27. | :15:29. | |
you and you finish shooting with a sense of numbness at what's | :15:30. | :15:35. | |
The town carried out 167 services - but they started spontaneously. | :15:36. | :15:39. | |
The coffins began passing through regularly in 2007 - | :15:40. | :15:41. | |
after nearby RAF Lyneham became the airbase the fallen | :15:42. | :15:44. | |
from Afghanistan and Iraq were flown into. | :15:45. | :15:49. | |
During those repatriations, hundreds if not thousands of people would be | :15:50. | :15:58. | |
Today it's very much business as usual. | :15:59. | :16:01. | |
The Town Council's decided not to put on any specific events | :16:02. | :16:03. | |
And what makes me proud is that our little town here managed | :16:04. | :16:22. | |
to put respect back into our armed forces and respect | :16:23. | :16:24. | |
Lee Mackie from Oxfordshire lost her son Jason when he was | :16:25. | :16:30. | |
killed in an explosion in Afghanistan in 2009. | :16:31. | :16:34. | |
Although she was too upset to go to his repatriation - | :16:35. | :16:37. | |
I became very aware that the community | :16:38. | :16:43. | |
there was like a comfort blanket to these traumatisued families. | :16:44. | :16:50. | |
They gave them the opportunity to recognise the fact | :16:51. | :16:52. | |
that our nation appreciate the sacrifice they had made. | :16:53. | :17:04. | |
Repatriations stopped in Royal Wootton Basset in 2011 - | :17:05. | :17:06. | |
they now take place at RAF Brize Norton. | :17:07. | :17:08. | |
In those four years, 345 fallen service men | :17:09. | :17:10. | |
by people in the town - and they haven't been forgotten. | :17:11. | :17:30. | |
The town made the country proud. It was recognised that around the | :17:31. | :17:34. | |
world. Bristol City head coach Lee Johnson | :17:35. | :17:35. | |
says he's still confident his side can avoid relegation | :17:36. | :17:38. | |
despite suffering their heaviest City were 1-0 down at half-time | :17:39. | :17:40. | |
before conceding four second half goals in just 21 minutes | :17:41. | :17:43. | |
to lose 5-0 at Preston. Fans who had gathered at Ashton Gate | :17:44. | :17:46. | |
to watch the match were left They need somebody like Harry | :17:47. | :18:06. | |
Redknapp to come in, somebody like that just to get us over the line | :18:07. | :18:12. | |
because it is a joke. He needs to go now, tonight. This job is too big | :18:13. | :18:17. | |
for you. He will be there next season, one T? Unfortunately he will | :18:18. | :18:22. | |
still be there even though most supporters want him to go. There | :18:23. | :18:27. | |
will be a big backlash over the renewal of season tickets and | :18:28. | :18:31. | |
everything else that goes on from now on, if everything goes wrong | :18:32. | :18:32. | |
this season. Bristol City, who are just one place | :18:33. | :18:33. | |
above the relegation zone, Sorry if that was painful viewing | :18:34. | :18:35. | |
for some of our audience. Hundreds of builders have | :18:36. | :18:43. | |
spent the past nine days volunteering their services | :18:44. | :18:45. | |
at a house in Hartcliffe in Bristol It's so that 24-year-old | :18:46. | :18:48. | |
Ryan Pollard can return home, having lived in a care home | :18:49. | :18:51. | |
in Gloucester for He collapsed after an operation | :18:52. | :18:54. | |
for a brain condition, Well, the presenter of DIY SOS has | :18:55. | :18:57. | |
been on site for most of the time and joins us from there tonight.The | :18:58. | :19:05. | |
big reveal's tomorrow, We are going to be ready. We taught | :19:06. | :19:22. | |
actually we would finish earlier than we have ever finished before | :19:23. | :19:26. | |
but it stretched into the night and we will be here until about 11pm and | :19:27. | :19:30. | |
then we will be finished and able to show you. What are the spirits like? | :19:31. | :19:42. | |
Very good and if you look... A lot of people stood outside. That is how | :19:43. | :19:47. | |
good it is. You get to a certain point when you have to clear people | :19:48. | :19:52. | |
outside you can get the thing finished, so all of these people | :19:53. | :19:56. | |
have their jobs and should be going home, but we can't actually get rid | :19:57. | :20:00. | |
of them all. I wish I could get rid of this lot. Your programme is based | :20:01. | :20:09. | |
on the same site as ours and we have seen the vans coming and going, you | :20:10. | :20:13. | |
have put in some incredible hours this week? It has probably averaged | :20:14. | :20:18. | |
about 100 hours a day and if they are putting in 10-12 hours a day you | :20:19. | :20:24. | |
can do the maths. A huge amount of work goes into this and we are | :20:25. | :20:28. | |
taking on all the work in nine days so what is an unbelievable job. The | :20:29. | :20:38. | |
trades have come out from all over Bristol and surrounding, up from | :20:39. | :20:43. | |
Somerset and all over this area has been massively supportive and | :20:44. | :20:46. | |
welcoming and people bringing cakes and drinks and everything to make us | :20:47. | :20:50. | |
feel welcome. Everybody saying hello. It has been a fantastic job | :20:51. | :20:55. | |
and everybody have really enjoyed it and tomorrow we get our reward and | :20:56. | :20:59. | |
all these people who have given up their time to come and work for no | :21:00. | :21:03. | |
wages will get their reward when they finally get to see mum and dad. | :21:04. | :21:10. | |
Mum and dad get to bring him home after five years. That will be a | :21:11. | :21:16. | |
wonderful moment. We love the bit where they see it for the first time | :21:17. | :21:19. | |
but do they have any clue what sort of things you have done and have you | :21:20. | :21:22. | |
asked questions about what they would like? Our designer always | :21:23. | :21:27. | |
spends time with the family to get an idea of the things they like and | :21:28. | :21:32. | |
people occasionally ask if anybody doesn't like it. This is not like | :21:33. | :21:43. | |
Changing Grooms, this is people needing the waterways widened so | :21:44. | :21:45. | |
their son can move around the house, so he can be at home, and specialist | :21:46. | :21:51. | |
facilities they need. If we widen the doors and put a bathroom and | :21:52. | :21:55. | |
downstairs they would be happy but the fact we go the extra mile and | :21:56. | :21:59. | |
build the space they need and they get some high-end luxury added, it | :22:00. | :22:07. | |
is almost neither here nor there but it can shock them. We take all the | :22:08. | :22:10. | |
internal walls out and half the floor is out and there is a point | :22:11. | :22:15. | |
you can see through the roof, we took the back of the house off, | :22:16. | :22:20. | |
everything goes out, so the house they are stepping back into will not | :22:21. | :22:23. | |
be the house they live them for 26 years but it will be the house built | :22:24. | :22:29. | |
specifically for his needs and will mean for the first time in five | :22:30. | :22:32. | |
years they can be a family together. We can't wait to see it. Am I being | :22:33. | :22:37. | |
undermined by what is going on behind me? Thanks for thing you have | :22:38. | :22:44. | |
done, look forward to seeing it. I will sort them out, goodbye. What | :22:45. | :22:46. | |
are you doing? The start of the county cricket | :22:47. | :22:48. | |
season is just two days away, and this morning Gloucestershire's | :22:49. | :22:50. | |
players pulled on their whites The squad has a much | :22:51. | :22:53. | |
younger look to it, It's not easy to follow in the | :22:54. | :23:12. | |
footsteps of one of Gloucestershire's most successful | :23:13. | :23:15. | |
overseas signings but that is the task for the 23-year-old Israeli and | :23:16. | :23:21. | |
Cameron Bancroft. Michael Kleiner scored over 6000 runs in the four | :23:22. | :23:26. | |
seasons and led them to a trophy. He will be back for one-day cricket but | :23:27. | :23:32. | |
Bancroft takes over in the championship. When you enjoy your | :23:33. | :23:36. | |
cricket you will be successful and play well so these guys have that | :23:37. | :23:41. | |
great feel and I am looking forward to running with that, nice and | :23:42. | :23:45. | |
relaxed and enjoying my cricket and hopefully that results in some good | :23:46. | :23:52. | |
runs. Gloucestershire's best chance for success may be the T20. They | :23:53. | :23:57. | |
were second from bottom in their group in the one-day cup but are | :23:58. | :24:01. | |
hopeful of improving that, and the format they championship results. | :24:02. | :24:07. | |
Two teams can get promoted and as I said that wasn't our aim that would | :24:08. | :24:12. | |
be ridiculous, so some tough teams and we have to play some hard | :24:13. | :24:15. | |
cricket and be sure that everybody is mocking in together to perform on | :24:16. | :24:20. | |
the pitch. It will be tough but we are not hiding behind that. Comedian | :24:21. | :24:29. | |
Dara O Brion has been lending they can take a hand promoting the | :24:30. | :24:33. | |
England- Ireland match staged in Bristol next month. It is also a | :24:34. | :24:41. | |
venue for the women's World Cup meaning Gloucestershire will host a | :24:42. | :24:44. | |
lucrative ten internationals this summer. It is the difference between | :24:45. | :24:50. | |
trading profit and not trading at profit. We are not hugely dependent | :24:51. | :24:57. | |
on it but it makes the difference between a rainy day and a not so | :24:58. | :25:02. | |
rainy day. The club has certainly sharpened up its image and as the | :25:03. | :25:07. | |
county continues to prosper off the field, the team needs to ensure it | :25:08. | :25:08. | |
is not left behind. Let's catch up on the weather and we | :25:09. | :25:25. | |
can head upstairs. Let's take you through the forecast for tomorrow. | :25:26. | :25:29. | |
We continue this run of dry weather and it is looking like over the next | :25:30. | :25:33. | |
ten days, generally drier than average conditions will be | :25:34. | :25:37. | |
prevailing, not to rule out some rain but not much. Tomorrow, on face | :25:38. | :25:44. | |
value more cloud compared to today but one thing I should point out, | :25:45. | :25:50. | |
the forecast computer models are struggling with the degree to which | :25:51. | :25:55. | |
things cloud over and the balance between sunshine and cloud cover, | :25:56. | :25:59. | |
not just for our region, and that continues into tomorrow, so you may | :26:00. | :26:08. | |
see different solutions for any particular spot. A dry a for some | :26:09. | :26:17. | |
and some will see a sunny weather. As we continue into tomorrow you | :26:18. | :26:20. | |
will see the signal for mode of the cloud to be around about some | :26:21. | :26:25. | |
exceptions, most notably to the west and around the coastal fringes. As | :26:26. | :26:30. | |
we come inland, more breaks developing. A good deal of sunshine | :26:31. | :26:37. | |
around, invaded by varying amounts of cloud. The process continues | :26:38. | :26:41. | |
through the course of tonight but a dry night and not as chilly as the | :26:42. | :26:45. | |
last so we should end up with the temperature around 6-8. For many of | :26:46. | :26:51. | |
you a good deal of cloud around but with the caveat about the amount of | :26:52. | :26:58. | |
cloud being difficult to pin down. A signal that some of the coastal | :26:59. | :27:03. | |
fringes around Somerset will see a reasonable amount of sunshine. | :27:04. | :27:08. | |
Coming inland, the cloud will be breaking up through the course of | :27:09. | :27:13. | |
the afternoon but cloud or not, a Friday and the winds will be light, | :27:14. | :27:19. | |
the temperature in the low teens. Feeling pleasantly warm should the | :27:20. | :27:25. | |
sun breaks through. A more path into Friday, the trend throughout Friday | :27:26. | :27:28. | |
and into the course of the weekend is to lose cloud cover rather than | :27:29. | :27:33. | |
increase, boding well for the weekend, not impossible that by | :27:34. | :27:36. | |
Sunday the temperature could get up to 20. | :27:37. | :27:41. | |
Just in time for the weekend. That would be nice. Back again at 10pm, | :27:42. | :27:47. | |
