That would be the easy solution, but prices up. But it is a competitive | :00:00. | :00:25. | |
market out there. But as budgets shrink, | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
is it money well spent? Ahead of MPs' Brexit vote tonight, | :00:29. | :00:34. | |
we ask leavers and remainers across the South East | :00:35. | :00:37. | |
if they're standing firm. We'll have reporters | :00:38. | :00:41. | |
in Gravesend and Brighton. The Sussex artist harnessing | :00:42. | :00:44. | |
the appeal of the horse to help raise money for the Hospice | :00:45. | :00:48. | |
in the Weald. And Vanessa Bell, forgotten painter | :00:49. | :00:50. | |
of the Bloomsbury set. We visit the first major | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
retrospective of the Hotels and B across | :00:54. | :00:55. | |
the South East say they'll be forced to dramatically increase prices | :00:56. | :01:13. | |
and risk losing customers because of The new tax on family-run businesses | :01:14. | :01:15. | |

say this would hit thousands One couple running an Eastbourne | :01:22. | :01:30. | |

that their bill is set to leap Hello, welcome. Come and have a look | :01:36. | :01:52. | |
around. Karen bought this guesthouse in 2009. But after the valuations | :01:53. | :01:58. | |
agency more than doubled the rateable value of the property, | :01:59. | :02:02. | |
business rates all shot up. She says it cannot be justified. The price of | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
the property has not gone up 120% in the time we've been here. And | :02:08. | :02:12. | |
certainly, the rates we are charging for our rooms has not gone up more | :02:13. | :02:17. | |
than ?10 on the whole of that period, because the market is so | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
competitive. Tourism is estimated to be valued at ?3.6 billion in Kent. | :02:22. | :02:30. | |
And so six, ?3.5 billion. In Eastbourne, tourism alone it | :02:31. | :02:33. | |
contributes ?380 million to the economy. Local businesses fear the | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
new rates are a real threat to the sector's future. What impact will | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
this have on you in April? It will increase our rates by 15% and that | :02:44. | :02:49. | |
in turn will mean we have two increase our room rates will be | :02:50. | :02:52. | |
difficult in the competitive market we are in. Our rates are actually | :02:53. | :02:57. | |
dropping. Is a revenue gaining exercise in the hope that businesses | :02:58. | :03:00. | |
would not be strong enough to say anything about it. I think they will | :03:01. | :03:06. | |
get a big shock, could this be the next poll tax? The Government says | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
across the UK, three quarters businesses will see either no change | :03:11. | :03:14. | |
or a fall in their bills. Small business leaders say the system is | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
broken. This is a completely outdated tax and clear from these | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
kind of anomalies we are seeing, where some businesses in places in | :03:24. | :03:27. | |
Kent are being completely clobbered while others are not seeing their | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
bills go up that much at all and in some areas, people are seeing their | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
bills come down, based on what is really an arbitrary measure on this | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
rateable value of their property rather than how profitable the | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
businesses. The Government says they are delivered the biggest ever cut | :03:43. | :03:47. | |
in rates at Maple, third will pay none at all. Guesthouses in | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
Eastbourne wonder why liberals are going up by so much. -- wondering | :03:53. | :04:00. | |
why there bills are going up so much. | :04:01. | :04:02. | |
Over the last five years, Kent Police paid more | :04:03. | :04:04. | |
force in England other than the Metropolitan Police. | :04:05. | :04:10. | |
Tonight, police chiefs have defended spending more than a million | :04:11. | :04:12. | |
pounds in that time, saying it's cost-effective | :04:13. | :04:14. | |
Over the same period, the neighbouring Sussex force paid | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
An audacious attempt by criminals, some | :04:19. | :04:30. | |
from Kent, to steal gems worth millions. | :04:31. | :04:31. | |
Foiled by police, thanks to a tip-off from an informant. | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
Detectives who have used informants, or grasses or snitches as they are | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
commonly known, believe they are a vital tool. | :04:38. | :04:39. | |
You certainly see examples of the use of informants | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
where you get armed police swooping on robberies, bank | :04:45. | :04:47. | |
robberies, security van robberies, jewellery robberies. | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
They are very valuable in terms of gathering | :04:52. | :04:53. | |
You may get a situation where you have got potential tensions between | :04:54. | :05:00. | |
rival gangs, so police can deploy resources to prevent violence. | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
Although police budgets have been cut by 18% in real terms, | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
expenditure on informants has, it seems, remained pretty constant. | :05:08. | :05:13. | |
The figures we've obtained under the Freedom of Information Act show | :05:14. | :05:15. | |
police forces across the UK paid more than ?22 million to informants | :05:16. | :05:18. | |
The biggest spender was the Met Police, who spent | :05:19. | :05:25. | |
Third on the list after the Police Service of | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
Northern Ireland is Kent Police, who handed over | :05:30. | :05:31. | |
more than ?1 million to | :05:32. | :05:32. | |
Some believe police are too reliance on informants. | :05:33. | :05:43. | |
Dave Fraser lives in Kent, a former criminal, son of south London | :05:44. | :05:46. | |
gangster, Frankie Fraser, says he was acquitted following tarnished | :05:47. | :05:48. | |
I always thought it was a waste of money anyway. | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
You put all that money in front of people, they may tell the | :05:53. | :05:55. | |
truth, especially if a lump some of money is involved. | :05:56. | :05:58. | |
And bearing in mind if they get a conviction, they get | :05:59. | :06:02. | |
I'd hate to think where the money goes. | :06:03. | :06:05. | |
Many informants are themselves criminals. | :06:06. | :06:07. | |
effective and legitimate tactic, helping to prevent and detect crime | :06:08. | :06:12. | |
Colin is here and Colin, Kent are the third biggest spenders | :06:13. | :06:21. | |
in the UK on informants, according to these figures, | :06:22. | :06:24. | |
In the world policing, Kent are considered one of the pioneers of | :06:25. | :06:40. | |
intelligence led policing. Senior police officers will tell you the | :06:41. | :06:45. | |
use of informants is a great way to get intelligence. Kent is | :06:46. | :06:48. | |
traditionally home to a lot of organised criminal gangs operating | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
in and around London. The figures show there are other forces paying | :06:53. | :06:56. | |
around a million, so it's not that unusual. Two neighbouring forces are | :06:57. | :07:00. | |
paying much less. Sussex paid half a million over the last five years, | :07:01. | :07:06. | |
Surrey paid three and 60,000 of the last five years. Kent Police said in | :07:07. | :07:14. | |
the statement said the use of informants is be managed closely and | :07:15. | :07:15. | |
scrutinised. Thank you. Coming up: missing in Scotland. | :07:16. | :07:22. | |

After three days of debate, MPs are tonight set to give | :07:29. | :07:30. | |
the Government the green light to start Brexit. | :07:31. | :07:32. | |
But triggering Article 50 is only the beginning of the process | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
to separate the UK from the EU, so what happens next? | :07:36. | :07:43. | |
Overall across the south east, 55% voted Leave and 45% voted to Remain. | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
Our two strongest votes locally were in Brighton and Gravesham. | :07:48. | :07:56. | |
68.6% of people in Brighton and Hove voted to remain. | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
We'll be going live to Westminster and Brighton, but first, let's | :08:01. | :08:08. | |
hear from our reporter Simon Jones in Gravesend. | :08:09. | :08:10. | |
Some are varying views there? Yes, they are renovating the market is | :08:11. | :08:22. | |
that this building at a cost of ?1.8 million. But that money has come | :08:23. | :08:26. | |
from a Central Government fund. They'd applied to Europe for catch, | :08:27. | :08:31. | |
but none has yet been forthcoming. So you can understand why some of | :08:32. | :08:34. | |
the traders they are not great fans of Europe and people I've spoken to | :08:35. | :08:39. | |
say that vote took place months ago, and now it's time to get on with it. | :08:40. | :08:50. | |
Businesses have been waiting to see what will happen. There is a slight | :08:51. | :08:55. | |
anxiety, I think it is fair to say, about where we're going. | :08:56. | :09:03. | |
Sorry about the loss of sound are there. People at the markets have | :09:04. | :09:10. | |
very different views. I find people who said they voted to Remain still | :09:11. | :09:16. | |
feel that they want to do so. And those of to the Leave, say they feel | :09:17. | :09:21. | |
the same author. So hardened opinions. But what people agree on | :09:22. | :09:26. | |
is they are uncertain about what the future is going to hold here and | :09:27. | :09:29. | |
that's why there's so much uncertainty speaking to be bloody | :09:30. | :09:33. | |
market today. They want things to happen quickly, but in reality, they | :09:34. | :09:36. | |
do not know what that will mean. Thank you Simon. | :09:37. | :09:42. | |
Over in Brighton, it was a different story with overwhelming support to | :09:43. | :09:51. | |
Remain in the European Union. Our reporter has been | :09:52. | :09:51. | |
finding out if that strength of support still exists. The | :09:52. | :09:59. | |
architecture of the corn exchange on the ballot is next door has a | :10:00. | :10:02. | |
European feel. The Prince Regent was a fan of the Parisian styles. The | :10:03. | :10:06. | |
result of those counted about I reflected that affection for Europe. | :10:07. | :10:10. | |
On this wintry day, more than six months later, what do people think? | :10:11. | :10:15. | |
In June I was shocked. I astounded and now it just feels... Desperate. | :10:16. | :10:25. | |
The Government are playing games. They have said something nobody knew | :10:26. | :10:28. | |
what they would get involved with. So now they've done it but stalled | :10:29. | :10:32. | |
under what they are doing. Ager seems a horrible mess. I voted to | :10:33. | :10:39. | |
Remain. Surrounding the corn exchange, quirky shops that draw | :10:40. | :10:44. | |
visitors to this city, often European visitors. A local business | :10:45. | :10:47. | |
leaders say since the summer, many business owners have been looking | :10:48. | :10:52. | |
again at their plans. Pose that Brexit decision of our decision to | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
leave the EU rather, businesses have been sitting back and waiting to see | :10:57. | :11:01. | |
what happened. There is a slight anxiety, I think it's fair to say, | :11:02. | :11:06. | |
by where we are going. One person was a bit more reassuring. They | :11:07. | :11:10. | |
tourist from Belgium. I don't think it will be as bad as everyone | :11:11. | :11:15. | |
things. I think the economy is going very well over here. That is the | :11:16. | :11:22. | |
view from Belgium? Years. Many here are hoping he is right. | :11:23. | :11:29. | |
Fresh talks on the long-running dispute over the role of conductors | :11:30. | :11:32. | |
on Southern Railway will be held next week. | :11:33. | :11:34. | |
that the meeting will take place at the conciliation service ACAS. | :11:35. | :11:42. | |
The move follows an agreement reached between the company | :11:43. | :11:45. | |
and the drivers' union Aslef, which has gone out to | :11:46. | :11:47. | |
CCTV cameras have captured the moment burglars smashed | :11:48. | :11:50. | |
their way into a shop near Tunbridge Wells early yesterday | :11:51. | :11:52. | |
morning causing damage costing thousands of pounds. | :11:53. | :11:55. | |
They struck at the AJ Magic shop in Southborough | :11:56. | :11:58. | |
at around four in the morning, smashing a door before | :11:59. | :12:00. | |
Hope is fading for a Sussex man who went missing whilst kayaking off | :12:01. | :12:11. | |
the Scottish coast three days ago, according to police. | :12:12. | :12:13. | |
35-year-old Dominic Jackson who comes from Uckfield, | :12:14. | :12:15. | |
failed to return from a sea kayaking trip on Sunday night. | :12:16. | :12:18. | |
His family believe he'll be found alive. | :12:19. | :12:20. | |
Our News Correspondent Bryony MacKenzie reports. | :12:21. | :12:31. | |
Dangerous waters and adverse weather conditions. | :12:32. | :12:34. | |
Police said the search for Dominic Jackson has become more | :12:35. | :12:36. | |
The 35-year-old set out from the harbour in Scotland | :12:37. | :12:42. | |
on Saturday morning, but did not return. | :12:43. | :12:44. | |
On Monday, search and rescue teams, along with 30 volunteers, began | :12:45. | :12:50. | |
scouring the coast and water looking for him. | :12:51. | :12:57. | |
We've also got lifeboats from other ports who are searching | :12:58. | :12:59. | |
the coastline as well as aircraft from the coastguard. | :13:00. | :13:04. | |
A kayak believed to belong to Mr Jackson has | :13:05. | :13:06. | |
since been recovered off the Caithness coast along | :13:07. | :13:08. | |
Tonight, police have released images of this yellow | :13:09. | :13:13. | |
jacket and buoyancy aid they believe he was wearing. | :13:14. | :13:18. | |
Despite there being no other sign of him, his family say | :13:19. | :13:21. | |
they are still hopeful he will be found alive. | :13:22. | :13:24. | |
There are so many inlets, coves and different places | :13:25. | :13:26. | |
where Dominic could have come ashore and been | :13:27. | :13:29. | |
stuck by sheer cliffs or | :13:30. | :13:32. | |
come ashore with his kayak and climbed rocks, | :13:33. | :13:34. | |
There's no reason for us to think he has gone offshore, so we're | :13:35. | :13:40. | |
hoping that as the boat has capsized, he has | :13:41. | :13:42. | |
managed to swim to shore and is | :13:43. | :13:44. | |
Mr Jackson moved from Uckfield to Aberdeenshire 13 years ago. | :13:45. | :13:50. | |
Although a novice to the sport, he was | :13:51. | :13:52. | |
But as bad weather persists, this could now | :13:53. | :13:56. | |
turned from a rescue operation to one of recovery. | :13:57. | :14:11. | |
It is coming up to a quarter to seven. To my's top story: South East | :14:12. | :14:18. | |
holiday-makers are being warned they face big price increases at hotels | :14:19. | :14:22. | |
and bed and breakfasts this summer because of a rise in business rates. | :14:23. | :14:26. | |
Also tonight, it is all downhill from here. Para skiing glory for | :14:27. | :14:32. | |
Millie Knight and great experience for Matt Shaw. We will be chatting | :14:33. | :14:38. | |
with them. And it has been much colder today with thick cloud in the | :14:39. | :14:43. | |
skies. This weather pattern is set to last. Details shortly. And if you | :14:44. | :14:48. | |
have a story using we should cover on South is today, the are on screen | :14:49. | :14:50. | |
now. 20 life-size model horses | :14:51. | :15:08. | |
decorated by local artists will soon be appearing around | :15:09. | :15:10. | |
Kent and Sussex. They'll be auctioned off | :15:11. | :15:12. | |
in the Autumn to raise money The idea follows closely | :15:13. | :15:14. | |
on the heels of the 44 snowdogs which became a popular | :15:15. | :15:20. | |
feature around Brighton last autumn. The concept began in | :15:21. | :15:22. | |
Switzerland in 1999, the country's Cow Parade | :15:23. | :15:24. | |
was so successful, it spread to many Two years ago, London | :15:25. | :15:27. | |
and Bristol hosted a parade Our reporter Ellie Crisell has | :15:28. | :15:31. | |
been to visit the artist who designed the horses, | :15:32. | :15:35. | |
Louise Giblin, Standing majestically alone outside | :15:36. | :15:36. | |
a hospice in the Weald in Inspired by Invicta, | :15:37. | :15:48. | |

of the life-size tours is ready to be decorated by local | :15:56. | :15:58. | |
artist and put on display. It is all to raise awareness | :15:59. | :16:05. | |
and money for the charity. Local people know | :16:06. | :16:09. | |
about the hospice, but I think often they don't | :16:10. | :16:11. | |
understand the full impact of our service | :16:12. | :16:13. | |
is and what we offer to patients | :16:14. | :16:21. | |
and families and carers. So we want even more people | :16:22. | :16:23. | |
to understand how we are One artist who has | :16:24. | :16:26. | |
already completed the Having for -- having | :16:27. | :16:29. | |
body cast numerous Olympians and paralympians | :16:30. | :16:41. | |
in bronze, she knew exactly where to Invicta means undefeated, | :16:42. | :16:44. | |
because I work a lot with sportspeople and am known for | :16:45. | :16:47. | |
working with sportspeople, I thought it would make sense for me to then | :16:48. | :16:49. | |
go and search other people who were the undefeated of Kent, | :16:50. | :16:53. | |
so the power Olympians, I love the fact that this | :16:54. | :16:55. | |
is going to publicise the hospice. People will be wondering what these | :16:56. | :17:01. | |
horses are and why they are there, but also, visually, | :17:02. | :17:04. | |
they look fantastic. Around half a dozen local artist | :17:05. | :17:05. | |
and companies have agreed to design a horse, but the hospice for | :17:06. | :17:09. | |
open to any budding creators to come forward with ideas and local | :17:10. | :17:12. | |
schoolchildren will also get the Death is a very tricky | :17:13. | :17:15. | |
thing to talk about two children, so having something | :17:16. | :17:24. | |
that is fun and interesting and engaging to start | :17:25. | :17:27. | |

of more than 100 of the world's best skiers from 30 countries - | :17:41. | :18:01. | |
Millie Knight from Canterbury and Matt Short from Paddock Wood | :18:02. | :18:06. | |
have just returned from the Para Alpine World | :18:07. | :18:08. | |
Championships in Italy. Millie took home four medals - | :18:09. | :18:10. | |
one gold and three silvers - And Matt was competing in a major | :18:11. | :18:13. | |
competition for the very first time. In a moment, we'll be speaking | :18:14. | :18:19. | |
to them both, but first Well, Matt and Millie are here. | :18:20. | :19:27. | |
Welcome. Millie, Britain has never had a world champion skier. That is | :19:28. | :19:32. | |
an achievement. How do you feel? That's so cool legs four months ago, | :19:33. | :19:39. | |
I was really ill and I would not have thought that I'd be able to go | :19:40. | :19:44. | |
back to the season. But it was amazing. Now, I'm world champion, I | :19:45. | :19:49. | |
could not believe it. You came here after the games when you're 15, so | :19:50. | :19:53. | |
you're a bit more experience and a bit quicker and you won by a huge | :19:54. | :20:02. | |
1.2 seconds? I came here three years ago having confessed that the games | :20:03. | :20:08. | |
now I'm here, world champion. Why matter you have three silvers as | :20:09. | :20:14. | |
well. We have your medals here. That's quite a dazzling array there, | :20:15. | :20:18. | |
Millie. You must be very pleased. Yes. Like I said, I couldn't have | :20:19. | :20:26. | |
hoped for better results. Gold and silver... It's amazing. Amazing. So, | :20:27. | :20:33. | |
Matt, you are hoping to get medals like that? Years. -- you stood up I | :20:34. | :20:46. | |
had a rare form of cancer and it was in my heel bone and they decide | :20:47. | :20:52. | |
amputation was burst. You have gone into skiing and this was your first | :20:53. | :20:56. | |
experience on the world stage. How was it? It was quite something. I | :20:57. | :21:04. | |
was amazed to get there. I'm a little bit behind Millie in terms of | :21:05. | :21:07. | |
where I am. But it was great exposure and to meet the people his | :21:08. | :21:12. | |
performances possible and all of the support staff and it was fantastic. | :21:13. | :21:19. | |
How was the atmosphere? Quite good. They have lots of people there. We | :21:20. | :21:24. | |
are not used to huge crowds, but it was really something. Your solicitor | :21:25. | :21:28. | |
by day, Matt, and Millie, you have your A-levels coming up. How do you | :21:29. | :21:36. | |
juggle those things? I'm passionate about skiing and I love school. My | :21:37. | :21:42. | |
school have made it possible for me to do both. And so, because I love | :21:43. | :21:47. | |
both those things, I find time for both. You do make life difficult for | :21:48. | :21:53. | |
yourself though, you're doing a photography a level and only have 8% | :21:54. | :22:01. | |
vision. Makes it more exciting. My top speed was 113 kilometres an | :22:02. | :22:07. | |
hour. Good look your exams and gurgler with a future career in | :22:08. | :22:11. | |
skiing and the day job. Thank you to both of you. | :22:12. | :22:20. | |
Tennis now, and Eastbourne's star has helped on the opening day of the | :22:21. | :22:26. | |
Fed cup by winning a singles match in a three nil win over Portugal in | :22:27. | :22:32. | |
Estonia. The world number ten and raced through a straight set. She | :22:33. | :22:40. | |
recently reached the Australian quarterfinals and will be back in | :22:41. | :22:41. | |
action tomorrow against Latvia. Vanessa Bell was the Bloomsbury | :22:42. | :22:43. | |
Group founder who set up home in 1916 in a farmhouse | :22:44. | :22:46. | |
in Charleston, East Sussex. She lived surrounded by artists, | :22:47. | :22:48. | |
thinkers and writers, most famously her sister, | :22:49. | :22:52. | |
Virginia Woolf. But Vanessa's own work, | :22:53. | :22:54. | |
vibrant paintings of landscapes, objects and the people she knew, | :22:55. | :23:01. | |
has sometimes been overlooked. Something a new exhibition | :23:02. | :23:04. | |
at Dulwich Picture Paintings from a life overshadowed | :23:05. | :23:22. | |
by others. Vanessa Bell may have been at the heart of the Bloomsbury | :23:23. | :23:27. | |
Group, but it was the writers, artists and thinkers around her who | :23:28. | :23:31. | |
took most of the credit. Many of them, including her sister, Virginia | :23:32. | :23:35. | |
Woolf, may be featured here, but it is Vanessa at last who has the | :23:36. | :23:40. | |
limelight. All these famous people were very noisy and they talked | :23:41. | :23:43. | |
about their own ideas a great deal and Vanessa was really a very | :23:44. | :23:50. | |
reluctant person to blow her own trumpet. She was down to earth, | :23:51. | :23:53. | |
plain-spoken, she would have been shocked to think anyone would have | :23:54. | :23:58. | |
been exhibiting paintings like this a century later. This exhibition | :23:59. | :24:02. | |
aims to show her work was as important as that of those who | :24:03. | :24:05. | |
gathered both her London home and the he then she created at | :24:06. | :24:10. | |
Charleston in East Sussex. There is no doubt Vanessa Bell was | :24:11. | :24:14. | |
overshadowed by her more famous sister and other members of the | :24:15. | :24:20. | |
Bloomsbury Said. But all the time, she was busy painting and it has | :24:21. | :24:23. | |
just taken until now to get so much of her work in one place. And that | :24:24. | :24:28. | |
scene altogether, her influences shine through. One of the arguments | :24:29. | :24:36. | |
about is she was very influenced or even derivative of the work of | :24:37. | :24:41. | |
Matisse and Picasso and so on. But I think what you see when you gather | :24:42. | :24:45. | |
together is that while she is clearly taking in these figures, she | :24:46. | :24:49. | |
is also stepping up to them with her own which is very down-to-earth and | :24:50. | :24:56. | |
there's a lot of pleasure in it and the kind of ferocious energy in it. | :24:57. | :25:02. | |
At art school, her tutor, John Singer Sargent, told her to use more | :25:03. | :25:06. | |
colour. The overwhelming impression of the work collectively is that she | :25:07. | :25:07. | |
did exactly that. No one wants to mention the snow, | :25:08. | :25:28. | |
but... Well I think I may disappoint. There may be the odd | :25:29. | :25:31. | |
snow flurry, but nothing significant. Yesterday, we finished | :25:32. | :25:35. | |
on a glorious note with lovely sunsets across the region. | :25:36. | :25:40. | |
Temperatures yesterday did well as well. 9 degrees. Today, all change. | :25:41. | :25:45. | |
A top temperature for some of us of three degrees. We've have a thick | :25:46. | :25:51. | |
cloud, it has been a grey day. This scene, very typical for many others | :25:52. | :25:57. | |
throughout the afternoon. The reason is because we have high pressure and | :25:58. | :26:00. | |
it is going to stay with us and stay cold and cloudy for the next couple | :26:01. | :26:06. | |
of days. That high is becoming quite established across Scandinavia and | :26:07. | :26:09. | |
the winds coming in from the Eid are dragging in a chilly and keeping our | :26:10. | :26:13. | |
wet weather out at they in the Lancet. Overnight tonight, we keep | :26:14. | :26:20. | |
that cloud. We're looking at patchy rain showers and the odd bit of | :26:21. | :26:23. | |
sleet and snow, but merely across higher ground. Temperatures close to | :26:24. | :26:30. | |
freezing. A cold, grey start tomorrow morning. All the clouds | :26:31. | :26:34. | |
still with us. Rain showers here and there. Nothing settling on the | :26:35. | :26:43. | |
ground, as temperatures will be similar to today's at 3-4 . That is | :26:44. | :26:49. | |
Thursday. Do the evening, the pattern and that cloud, still hit | :26:50. | :26:55. | |
and miss rain showers and it will be a frosty start to Friday morning. | :26:56. | :27:01. | |
Friday, the wind starts to pick up a little more, so it will feel even | :27:02. | :27:05. | |
colder on Friday. We are limiting the amount of brightness and most | :27:06. | :27:10. | |
places will be dry. These are daytime temperatures of around 1-2 . | :27:11. | :27:17. | |
Milder around the coast. It may creep to three degrees across parts | :27:18. | :27:21. | |
of East Sussex. Into the weekend, we will not see a huge amount of | :27:22. | :27:25. | |
change. Temperatures will struggle and the winds pick up and become | :27:26. | :27:29. | |
stronger and by we reach Sunday, it will be colder -- less cold and | :27:30. | :27:32. | |
things may brighten a little. I will be back at 10pm. I will see | :27:33. | :27:37. | |
you tomorrow. Good evening. when farmers leave | :27:38. | :28:16. | |
their daily routines behind... Right, here we come, Dorset! | :28:17. | :28:19. | |
..for a show day. When author | :28:20. | :28:22. | |
Sir Terry Pratchett died, They called on Death to | :28:23. | :28:37. | |
