Welcome to South East Today, I'm Natalie Graham. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
35 years jail for the Bulgarian gang, who smuggled dozens | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
of people into the UK in specially-adapted vans. | :00:10. | :00:14. | |
We'll be live at Maidstone Crown Court with the details. | :00:15. | :00:23. | |
Fishing on the high seas. How illegal drug use is leading to | :00:24. | :00:30. | |
accidents and deaths. We have to try to get the fact it is an unsafe | :00:31. | :00:35. | |
practice to the fishing communities and seafarers as a whole. | :00:36. | :00:40. | |
Also in tonight's programme... | :00:41. | :00:41. | |

Two worlds are colliding in Hastings tonight. | :00:54. | :01:08. | |
Six Bulgarian people-traffickers have been jailed for a total of 35 | :01:09. | :01:12. | |
years for bringing at least 37 illegal immigrants, including | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
The gang used vans fitted out with hidden compartments, | :01:16. | :01:22. | |
in what the judge called a "well-organised | :01:23. | :01:23. | |
Simon Jones reports from Maidstone Crown Court. | :01:24. | :01:32. | |
Look in the side of this ban and all appears to be in order. But the | :01:33. | :01:40. | |
doors at the back of fake. In this gap between the genuine doors and | :01:41. | :01:45. | |
the pretend ones, migrants had to sit on makeshift benches. 37 people | :01:46. | :01:51. | |
on five different trips. One of the drug is putting garlic bulbs into | :01:52. | :01:54. | |
the floor of his van to try to put sniffer dogs off the scent. This is | :01:55. | :01:59. | |
a highly sophisticated concealment from a well organised crime group | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
with capacity and serious intent. The nature of the concealment is | :02:04. | :02:08. | |
extremely life threatening. On these occasions, we are lucky we are not | :02:09. | :02:15. | |
talking about fatalities. Today, these cousins were given jail | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
sentences of three and a half years. On Friday another two people were | :02:21. | :02:29. | |
also jailed. Together with another two. The trips were made from Calais | :02:30. | :02:35. | |
and Dunkirk in today that and Hook of Holland into Harwich. The judge | :02:36. | :02:41. | |
said, you knew full well there was very good money to be earned at the | :02:42. | :02:50. | |
state of desperate people. This shows the extreme length that people | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
traffickers will go to to help people break into the country. That | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
is why it is so important we work with France to ensure we tackle the | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
people traffickers and end the illegal trade of modern slavery and | :03:03. | :03:05. | |
make sure the Calais jungle does not return in the spring. Last year, two | :03:06. | :03:12. | |
men worse -- were jailed for smuggling migrants into the UK when | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
their inflatable boat started sinking. The Home Office is stepping | :03:17. | :03:20. | |
up the battle against the people smugglers. Many migrants remain in | :03:21. | :03:23. | |
northern France, still desperate to get to the UK. | :03:24. | :03:27. | |
And he's live outside Maidstone Crown Court. | :03:28. | :03:29. | |
Simon, what do we know about the people smuggled | :03:30. | :03:32. | |
37 people in total. Largely from Afghanistan. Including several women | :03:33. | :03:41. | |
and children. The Home Office said all had claimed asylum in the UK | :03:42. | :03:44. | |
although they could not tell us today how many of those claims have | :03:45. | :03:50. | |
been successful. With regard to the two men sentenced today, they have | :03:51. | :03:54. | |
been told they would be paid 3000 euros. Illegal migrants are paying | :03:55. | :04:02. | |
much more to people smugglers for getting across the Channel. The | :04:03. | :04:06. | |
judges said they had played an important role. | :04:07. | :04:09. | |
BBC South East has learned that around one in seven of all fishing | :04:10. | :04:12. | |
boat accidents in the last two years has involved illegal drug use. | :04:13. | :04:15. | |
It's prompted the Maritime and Coastguard Agency | :04:16. | :04:17. | |
to launch a campaign, warning fishermen of the dangers | :04:18. | :04:19. | |
Last June, Darren Brown, from Newhaven, drowned after jumping | :04:20. | :04:22. | |
into the sea to try to untangle a rope. | :04:23. | :04:24. | |
Investigators discovered amphetamines | :04:25. | :04:26. | |
This is Our Sarah Jane, an under-10m fishing boat | :04:27. | :04:34. | |
The drugs amphetamine and cannabis were found by the | :04:35. | :04:52. | |
Marine Accident Investigations Branch hidden in his bunk. | :04:53. | :04:54. | |
It is an occupation where you need to be in | :04:55. | :04:57. | |
If you take drugs, that affects the way you behave. | :04:58. | :05:04. | |
June 9th last year, 30 miles of Eastbourne, of rope got | :05:05. | :05:06. | |
Darren decided he was going to untangle the | :05:07. | :05:10. | |
rope by jumping overboard in the channel. | :05:11. | :05:12. | |
He had no life vest on and no safety rope attached. | :05:13. | :05:15. | |
The fact that he thought he could jump into this very cold water | :05:16. | :05:32. | |
against a very strong tide with a knife, | :05:33. | :05:34. | |
indicated that perhaps he was under the influence | :05:35. | :05:36. | |
Mark Brown didn't have a clue is older | :05:37. | :05:40. | |
brother Darren was using drugs whilst at sea. | :05:41. | :05:42. | |
Simon is not something I was aware he was doing. | :05:43. | :05:44. | |
It's not something even his daughters were aware he was doing. | :05:45. | :05:47. | |
Talking to people he was working with, it's not something they were | :05:48. | :05:50. | |
So what is amphetamine and why does it appear | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
to be the drug of choice for fishermen going to see? | :05:54. | :05:55. | |
They are drugs that will increase alertness, | :05:56. | :05:57. | |
For some people, it increases confidence | :05:58. | :06:00. | |
Professional seafaring and drug abuse don't mix, just like | :06:01. | :06:06. | |
driving cars and drug abuse don't mix. | :06:07. | :06:10. | |
We've got to try and get this sort of consciousness that it's an | :06:11. | :06:13. | |
unsafe practice across the fishing communities, through families, | :06:14. | :06:16. | |
through the seafarers, through the industry as a whole. | :06:17. | :06:23. | |
The Fishermen's Mission is just one charity that | :06:24. | :06:25. | |
is gearing up to try to how educate and support the families of | :06:26. | :06:28. | |
We're putting extra resources into greater changing for | :06:29. | :06:31. | |
our port staff on drug and alcohol awareness | :06:32. | :06:41. | |
so they can spot some of the issues so we can help. | :06:42. | :06:49. | |
It also beginning to roll out a programme of | :06:50. | :06:51. | |
drug awareness for fishermen of all ages, | :06:52. | :06:52. | |
but particularly aimed at the | :06:53. | :06:54. | |
Our research indicates drug use at sea by young | :06:55. | :06:57. | |
In the last two years, 15% of fishing vessel accidents have | :06:58. | :07:01. | |
Glen Campbell's full report, outlining what more is being done | :07:02. | :07:04. | |
to try and tackle the problem of fishermen using drugs, | :07:05. | :07:07. | |
is on Inside Out tonight at 7:30pm, here on BBC1. | :07:08. | :07:09. | |
The bereaved mother, who's opening a garden | :07:10. | :07:12. | |
A fresh war of words has broken out between the RMT | :07:13. | :07:21. | |
Union and Southern Rail, on the eve of talks aimed | :07:22. | :07:24. | |
at thrashing out a deal to end their bitter industrial | :07:25. | :07:27. | |
The union claims that, on average, three services a day are running | :07:28. | :07:32. | |
without a safety-critical staff member on board in addition | :07:33. | :07:34. | |
to the driver, which they claim puts passengers at risk in the event | :07:35. | :07:37. | |
That equates to 1000 trains a year. That is probably trains that were | :07:38. | :07:56. | |
not reported. It is 1000 trains year that people will be unsafe and | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
disabled passengers cannot travel on. The promises from Management | :08:01. | :08:03. | |
have been broken already. Southern managers deny passenger | :08:04. | :08:07. | |
safety is being put at risk. Our reporter, John Young, | :08:08. | :08:09. | |
is at Haywards Heath Station now. John, this goes right | :08:10. | :08:12. | |
to the heart of the dispute, which has been going | :08:13. | :08:14. | |
on for nearly a year now. That is right. Exactly the same | :08:15. | :08:23. | |
arguments. The union saying we have to have the second on-board | :08:24. | :08:29. | |
supervisor. Seven today saying, you will unless there are exceptional | :08:30. | :08:33. | |
circumstances. When I pushed southern on what that meant, they | :08:34. | :08:36. | |
are very cautious about spelling it out. It means the on-board | :08:37. | :08:42. | |
supervisor being suddenly ill or stuck on a late, incoming train | :08:43. | :08:45. | |
because of problems beforehand. Moving things on till tomorrow, the | :08:46. | :08:52. | |
13th day of talks, the seventh set of talks between seven and the RMT | :08:53. | :08:56. | |
foot I asked passengers were they made of that. They did not think | :08:57. | :08:57. | |
much. I don't think anything | :08:58. | :09:00. | |
is going to be sorted. Nothing has been sorted so far, | :09:01. | :09:03. | |
so what is to say anything I can't miss my train | :09:04. | :09:05. | |
because I've got lessons. I think it may well do | :09:06. | :09:12. | |
in the end but would So, what is the timetable for | :09:13. | :09:21. | |
tomorrow? Talks start at 2:30 p.m.. The unions are saying, if Southern | :09:22. | :09:27. | |
won't budge on the issue of the second safety critical person, then | :09:28. | :09:34. | |
nothing doing. Campaigners calling for lifeguards | :09:35. | :09:44. | |
at Cambuslang are a step closer to victory after funding was approved | :09:45. | :09:51. | |
of ?51,000 towards the service. Seven men drowned, including five in | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
one day. The funding proposal will be put to full council in two weeks' | :09:56. | :09:57. | |
time. A footballer attacked a nightclub | :09:58. | :10:01. | |
bouncer with a bottle, leaving him with a head injury | :10:02. | :10:03. | |
requiring seven staples, Brighton and Hove Albion footballer | :10:04. | :10:05. | |
Rohan Ince denies wounding with intent outside the nightclub | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
in Windsor in the early hours of Christmas Day in 2015, | :10:10. | :10:11. | |
and the trial continues. The Government has failed to make | :10:12. | :10:15. | |
a convincing case for opening a new wave of grammar schools | :10:16. | :10:18. | |
in England, according to MPs Their latest report has cast doubt | :10:19. | :10:20. | |
on claims that new grammars will help improve social mobility, | :10:21. | :10:26. | |
and they're sceptical about claims that entrance tests can | :10:27. | :10:30. | |
be made "tutor proof". A new grammar school annexe | :10:31. | :10:34. | |
is being built in Sevenoaks, and the Prime Minister says creating | :10:35. | :10:36. | |
more will increase the number of good school places | :10:37. | :10:39. | |
available across the country. When her baby son Devlin died | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
at just five days old, Kent mother Natasha King made | :10:44. | :10:46. | |
a promise that she would turn the tragedy into something positive, | :10:47. | :10:49. | |
and set up a charity to provide Six years on, with help | :10:50. | :10:52. | |
from the Prince's Trust, she's creating a new garden | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
in Folkestone, that will provide a haven for people | :10:57. | :10:58. | |
to remember their loved ones. When baby Devlin died at just five | :10:59. | :11:14. | |
days old, his mother Natalie King made a promise. Transforming this | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
disused play area is all about fulfilling that promise. Nothing. | :11:19. | :11:26. | |
Nothing is worse than losing a child, a baby. Nothing whatsoever. | :11:27. | :11:34. | |
It is his sixth birthday tomorrow. I promised my son, before I laid him | :11:35. | :11:39. | |
down to rest, that I would do what I can to live in other people's hearts | :11:40. | :11:45. | |
and do what I can to help out families in the same situation as | :11:46. | :11:50. | |
myself. With the help of volunteers, the memorial garden for parents who | :11:51. | :11:53. | |
have lost young babies will be created in just two weeks. | :11:54. | :12:03. | |
Especially helping Natalie, it is good. Especially helping others is | :12:04. | :12:06. | |
good. It is good to start something and see the finishing project. It | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
will be really good and help the community a lot. It would be really | :12:11. | :12:14. | |
good. Those who campaigned for the garden to be reopened a glad it is | :12:15. | :12:18. | |
finally happening. I am absolutely delighted. There has been a fight to | :12:19. | :12:23. | |
try to get it going but it has been worthwhile. A community thing can | :12:24. | :12:27. | |
only be good. A lot of these areas and places have closed down and kids | :12:28. | :12:29. | |
have nowhere to go. Families have have nowhere to go. Families have | :12:30. | :12:35. | |
nowhere to go. This brings the community together. For Natalie, | :12:36. | :12:39. | |
bringing the community together is a fitting tribute to her baby son. | :12:40. | :12:44. | |
Six Bulgarian people-traffickers have been jailed for a total of 35 | :12:45. | :12:48. | |
years for bringing 37 illegal immigrants, including several | :12:49. | :12:53. | |

history has been celebrated today On this day, the 13th of February, | :13:41. | :13:43. | |
in 1917, the War Office opened the first military installation | :13:44. | :13:47. | |
there - an experimental wireless By World War Two, Biggin Hill had | :13:48. | :13:51. | |
grown to become a key strategic base for Hurricane and Spitfire aircraft, | :13:52. | :13:58. | |
as one of the principal Battle of Britain airfields, | :13:59. | :14:02. | |
protecting the skies over Kent In the 1970s, RAF | :14:03. | :14:04. | |
operations there ended. And since 1974 it's been used | :14:05. | :14:11. | |
commercially for private Sara Smith is there for us now and, | :14:12. | :14:14. | |
Sara, the unmistakable sound of a Spitfire engine | :14:15. | :14:19. | |
was heard there today. Yes. This time, eight two seater. | :14:20. | :14:34. | |
On-board the passenger was one of the special guests at today's and | :14:35. | :14:39. | |
is. 100 years ago today the first flight arrived here. Then it was | :14:40. | :14:44. | |
owned by the War Office. They were carrying out experiments into air | :14:45. | :14:47. | |
communications which would prove so important in the years to come. | :14:48. | :14:52. | |
Begin Hill's past and its president, flying wing to wing. The Learjet for | :14:53. | :15:00. | |
transporting today's wealthy clean towel and a Spitfire, for many, the | :15:01. | :15:05. | |
emblem of Britain's World War II victory. This airport played a | :15:06. | :15:10. | |
crucial role in that victory as a fighter command base. It was | :15:11. | :15:14. | |
guarding the southern approaches to London and therefore it was one of | :15:15. | :15:21. | |
the first to meet the Luftwaffe. They came over this place 25 times | :15:22. | :15:25. | |
until was hardly anything left standing. It was always operational. | :15:26. | :15:32. | |
Among those celebrating the airport's 100th year, Ray Roberts, | :15:33. | :15:37. | |
also 100. Today he got to fly again in a Spitfire, the aircraft he had | :15:38. | :15:42. | |
been learning to fly in 1940 before an accident during his last training | :15:43. | :15:49. | |
session. The aircraft caught fire. I had to bail out. My parachute did | :15:50. | :15:56. | |
not open properly. I was injured. My right leg was badly injured. I was | :15:57. | :16:04. | |
lucky to be a live freely. Today's flight, alongside the Learjet, a | :16:05. | :16:09. | |
very different scene to that of 1940 when the Battle of Britain raged | :16:10. | :16:13. | |
here. The enemy aircraft were trying to attack the airfield. The squadron | :16:14. | :16:18. | |
here would all have been up to try to defend the airfield. And of | :16:19. | :16:23. | |
course the capital. Hectic period or through. Fighter planes like this | :16:24. | :16:28. | |
one based at begin Hill brought down 1400 enemy aircraft. It was at a | :16:29. | :16:35. | |
heavy price. 453 M based here lost their lives. The role they played | :16:36. | :16:42. | |
has never been forgotten. Neither, for Ray, as the Joy of flying. I | :16:43. | :16:49. | |
definitely enjoyed it. Any flight. Any time. In any thing. The RAF has | :16:50. | :16:55. | |
long gone, stopping its last operations here more than 40 years | :16:56. | :16:59. | |
ago. The future of the airport much more gloss than great. | :17:00. | :17:03. | |
It is the luxury side of the airport which keeps it going. People using a | :17:04. | :17:13. | |
private jet to get from a to be. Many without an idea as to the | :17:14. | :17:14. | |
incredible history. The scientific examination of a dead | :17:15. | :17:22. | |
body for clues has long been a staple of murder mystery | :17:23. | :17:25. | |
books and films. And today, families in Sussex have | :17:26. | :17:27. | |
had the chance to speak first-hand to a forensic science expert, | :17:28. | :17:30. | |
and find out how real-life As part of the BBC's | :17:31. | :17:32. | |
"Terrific Scientific" project, Chrissie Reidy's been | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
to the Brighton Science Festival to learn about the dark arts | :17:38. | :17:39. | |
of analysing fingerprints, human Blood. In a world where there is | :17:40. | :18:01. | |
always a crime to solve. The suspect must have cut themselves breaking | :18:02. | :18:06. | |
the bust. It is often the wonders of science that enables sleuth like | :18:07. | :18:09. | |
Sherlock Holmes to unlock the all important clues. As part of | :18:10. | :18:13. | |
Brighton's science Festival, these youngsters are trying to solve their | :18:14. | :18:18. | |
own murder mystery. We need to find out the weapons that they used to | :18:19. | :18:24. | |
kill the person. We are trying to find some fingerprints. There are | :18:25. | :18:33. | |
two on this side. We are closer to solving the murder. We have found a | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
footprint of one of the pieces of paper. Science festivals like this | :18:38. | :18:41. | |
really do help bring the subject to live, where youngsters are getting | :18:42. | :18:45. | |
first-hand experience at using tools that are actually used in the real | :18:46. | :18:49. | |
world. The workshops provide a chance to explore beyond the | :18:50. | :18:54. | |
classroom. About 10% of a class will end up going on to do science | :18:55. | :18:58. | |
seriously. That is about three and 30. Not a big number. The week-long | :18:59. | :19:04. | |
festival aims to remind people science is more than textbooks. The | :19:05. | :19:10. | |
Aasking questions and thinking things through. Getting methodical. | :19:11. | :19:16. | |
They will remember this. They can find out how science works in | :19:17. | :19:21. | |
everyday life. They are part of an occupation and doing it for real. | :19:22. | :19:29. | |
While some shudder at the mere mention of science, the festival | :19:30. | :19:32. | |
hopes to inspire young budding scientists just waiting to be | :19:33. | :19:34. | |
unleashed on the world of crime. If that's whet your appetite | :19:35. | :19:40. | |
for some hands-on science, then there are activities all this | :19:41. | :19:42. | |
week at Brighton Science Festival. Or you can find some family-friendly | :19:43. | :19:44. | |
science experiments that you can try out at home on the BBC | :19:45. | :19:47. | |

is the world's largest And when BMX bikers and | :19:50. | :19:57. | |
skateboarders try out their stunts, they usually do it to a background | :19:58. | :20:00. | |
of rock, punk and hip hop music. This afternoon, though, | :20:01. | :20:05. | |
they've been accompanied by something a little different - | :20:06. | :20:07. | |
Russian concert pianist It's been brought about | :20:08. | :20:09. | |
by a partnership with Hastings International Piano | :20:10. | :20:13. | |
Concerto Competition, It is all about the music. And the | :20:14. | :20:39. | |
skating. And the music. This skate park in Hastings is opening its | :20:40. | :20:43. | |
doors tomorrow with a bit of a twist. Clashing urban street prowess | :20:44. | :20:49. | |
with classically trained musicians. Classical music, the people who were | :20:50. | :20:53. | |
in here most of the time, they would not listen to classical music | :20:54. | :20:56. | |
normally. When you put them together it will hopefully bring back... You | :20:57. | :21:01. | |
see two different sides and everyone can appreciate each other. What do | :21:02. | :21:06. | |
you make of it all, having the piano here whilst you are shredding it up? | :21:07. | :21:11. | |
I think it is cool. Something I have never seen before. The whole ten | :21:12. | :21:16. | |
years I have been skating, I have never seen anything like this. I | :21:17. | :21:20. | |
woke up this money was thinking about it. It was pretty wild. What | :21:21. | :21:26. | |
is it like riding and skating? Is it tight? Restricting in some places. | :21:27. | :21:31. | |
After the first two Rands, you're used to it. Did not want to rip it | :21:32. | :21:36. | |
up. The man here playing is the 2015 of the Hastings International | :21:37. | :21:43. | |
Concerto competition. He is more used to playing in theatres than an | :21:44. | :21:48. | |
underground skate parks. I really liked the idea of reaching to a new | :21:49. | :21:52. | |
audience. It is nice to see people coming here and just get them | :21:53. | :21:58. | |
interested in yellow music. It is really great. Hastings concerto | :21:59. | :22:05. | |
competition and source park may draw a slightly different crowd in the | :22:06. | :22:10. | |
coming weeks. Very different talents, very different outfits, but | :22:11. | :22:11. | |
the same passion. I love the way they swapped outfits. | :22:12. | :22:20. | |
Excellent. Oil paints or watercolours on canvas | :22:21. | :22:25. | |
are the traditional components But "Entangled: Threads and Making" | :22:26. | :22:27. | |
at the Turner Contemporary in Margate features materials | :22:28. | :22:31. | |
as diverse as plants, Forty international artists - | :22:32. | :22:33. | |
all women - have contributed. Their work features | :22:34. | :22:38. | |
sculpture, installation, But what they all share | :22:39. | :22:39. | |
is a fascination with You really do take a step outside | :22:40. | :22:45. | |
the real world, for sure. There are things in here | :22:46. | :22:55. | |
hanging from on high, as well as things that you have | :22:56. | :22:58. | |
to crouch down to see and take in. They are all designed, | :22:59. | :23:07. | |
crafted and sculpted by women. There are works dating back | :23:08. | :23:10. | |
to the early 20th century, and there are some brand | :23:11. | :23:15. | |
new pieces created specially There is lots of sculpture in this | :23:16. | :23:17. | |
exhibition, lots of colour, and really it's about celebrating women | :23:18. | :23:29. | |
artists who are working with the Reds and tapestry and a whole range | :23:30. | :23:32. | |
of techniques but then doing something very different and | :23:33. | :23:44. | |
something radically new with those While there are some pretty | :23:45. | :23:46. | |
sophisticated items of artwork on display here, the atmosphere, to me, | :23:47. | :23:51. | |
is pretty much very friendly There are materials | :23:52. | :23:53. | |
that are familiar. And, of course, the penguins | :23:54. | :23:57. | |
are irresistible. I hope it really does open | :23:58. | :24:07. | |
people's eyes and challenge their percepttions about what is | :24:08. | :24:09. | |
art and what is craft. artists who are really celebrating | :24:10. | :24:13. | |
production and creativity. They are wanting to get messages | :24:14. | :24:20. | |
across in very different ways. the possibilities of creativity, | :24:21. | :24:23. | |
using materials everyone knows But it makes art which suggests | :24:24. | :24:30. | |
old statements on all Entangled is a free to enter | :24:31. | :24:36. | |
exhibition which goes on The cold wet weather's | :24:37. | :24:43. | |
made things pretty muddy But it's created a playground | :24:44. | :24:50. | |
for Rukuru, a baby rhino born at the Port Lympne Reserve | :24:51. | :24:55. | |
in December. Mum Nyasa has been giving her | :24:56. | :25:01. | |
daughter a bit of a lesson in mud wallowing at the wildlife | :25:02. | :25:05. | |
park near Folkestone, and they both seem to be | :25:06. | :25:07. | |
enjoying themselves. I think Mum is enjoying herself more | :25:08. | :25:21. | |
than the little baby, isn't she? Excellent. | :25:22. | :25:24. | |
So, if you are a mud wallow, what is the forecast like? | :25:25. | :25:32. | |
Good news if you have not been enjoying the cold and wet weather. | :25:33. | :25:39. | |
Today lots of sunshine. Still chilly easterly breezes. Still feeling raw | :25:40. | :25:44. | |
despite the best of the brightness. Highs today five, 6 degrees. It is | :25:45. | :25:49. | |
all change. We still have bitterly cold easterly winds. Back to a | :25:50. | :25:53. | |
westerly direction. The general trend for all of us is slowly things | :25:54. | :25:58. | |
are turning milder. By Wednesday highs of 12 degrees are expected. By | :25:59. | :26:04. | |
Saturday we could see two or three. Tonight we will be staying dry again | :26:05. | :26:16. | |
with the clearer skies. Because of the winds we will see temperatures | :26:17. | :26:17. | |
hovering above freezing. Temperatures in rul spots perhaps | :26:18. | :26:20. | |
one macro, two degrees. Lots of sunshine around. By the afternoon we | :26:21. | :26:24. | |
will be losing it a bit but we will be staying dry. The winds factories | :26:25. | :26:28. | |
south-easterly direction and temperatures. To creep upwards. | :26:29. | :26:34. | |
Slightly duller by the afternoon. Temperatures should be reaching | :26:35. | :26:38. | |
highs of around nine, 10 degrees. There is some rain out to the West. | :26:39. | :26:42. | |
In the South East corner we should be staying dry. Still breezy. Not | :26:43. | :26:50. | |
feeling quite as raw. Very mild Tuesday and Wednesday. Overnight | :26:51. | :26:54. | |
lows if you can call it that, of around seven, 8 degrees that there | :26:55. | :26:57. | |
will be spits and spots of rain but mostly dry as you start the day. By | :26:58. | :27:03. | |
the afternoon will be some light rain. Temperatures as I mentioned up | :27:04. | :27:08. | |
to 11, 12. Really feeling very mild. As we enter the week, we will be | :27:09. | :27:13. | |
seeing high pressure built. Bloodthirsty, decent spells of | :27:14. | :27:18. | |
sunshine. Temperatures ten, 11. A similar story the day. As we look | :27:19. | :27:26. | |
towards the weekend it should be dry. On Saturday perhaps some rain | :27:27. | :27:29. | |
on the way. It will be increasingly mild, particularly on Wednesday. Not | :27:30. | :27:34. | |
so good for mud wallowing, I am afraid. | :27:35. | :27:38. | |
I will be back at eight p.m.. That is it from me for this evening. | :27:39. | :27:43. | |
Goodbye. | :27:44. | :27:48. |
