The special school under investigation for pupil safdty | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
Will paying by contactless credit cards make travelling | :00:09. | :00:18. | |
And later on: A campaign to celebrate the life of a lerchant | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
who loomed large over Newbury in Tudor times. | :00:23. | :00:38. | |
The future of a special school in Fairford, where all the children | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
were removed in the summer, is in doubt after the counchl | :00:43. | :00:44. | |
revealed it's no longer financially viable. | :00:45. | :00:46. | |
A consultation starts on Monday on plans to close Coln Housd. | :00:47. | :00:48. | |
Separately, a number of investigations are continuing | :00:49. | :00:50. | |
following concerns about thd safety of children at the school. | :00:51. | :00:52. | |
Even before Ofsted published the results of its inspection | :00:53. | :00:59. | |
earlier this year, the council learnt of worrying concerns - | :01:00. | :01:04. | |
most notably a high number of physical restraints being used | :01:05. | :01:06. | |
on pupils and a failure of the school's management | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
As a result, the county council stepped in and removed the pupils | :01:10. | :01:14. | |
And tonight I understand the headteacher and three | :01:15. | :01:19. | |
non-teaching members of staff have been suspended. | :01:20. | :01:21. | |
The school is being run by an interim head, along | :01:22. | :01:24. | |
with an interim board of governors, after the original board | :01:25. | :01:27. | |
And as for the reasons why the children were removed | :01:28. | :01:34. | |
earlier this year, very little at this stage is being made public. | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
I have to be very careful what I say because I don't want to prejudice | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
There are clearly a number of concerns about children's safety. | :01:42. | :01:45. | |
There were no allegations m`de, as far as I'm aware, | :01:46. | :01:48. | |
that have come forward regarding sexual abuse. | :01:49. | :01:50. | |
I know that has been a rumotr that has been going around and I do not | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
The council says demand for Coln House has dropped to such | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
a level that they'll no longer be able to afford to keep | :01:58. | :02:00. | |
That means that the school will be making a crippling loss, | :02:01. | :02:05. | |
By 2018-2019, we will be having to find ?2.5 million just | :02:06. | :02:13. | |
the council mishandled the removal of the pupils | :02:14. | :02:18. | |
Teachers who are still at Coln House are now being given extra training | :02:19. | :02:22. | |
and others are on placements at other schools. | :02:23. | :02:29. | |
But reluctantly, in the current climate, the union accepts | :02:30. | :02:31. | |
that the school won't be able to stay open. | :02:32. | :02:33. | |
Whilst we are saddened by the fact that it might mean, | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
been quite popular and servdd the needs of the community well | :02:39. | :02:41. | |
the case for the lack of financial viability is quite strong | :02:42. | :02:43. | |
and I think it is fair to s`y that, having talked to members, | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
we are quite resigned to thd fact that the most likely outcomd | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
All of the children removed from here in the summer are now | :02:52. | :02:57. | |
at other schools and it now seems increasingly likely they'll become | :02:58. | :02:59. | |
the last intake of pupils to be taught at Coln House. | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
Steve Knibbs, BBC South Today, Fairford. | :03:03. | :03:10. | |
Five men have appeared in court in Oxford charged | :03:11. | :03:12. | |
with historical sexual offences against teenage girls. | :03:13. | :03:14. | |
They were among those arrested during early | :03:15. | :03:16. | |
They're charged with a rangd of offences including kidnap, | :03:17. | :03:19. | |
trafficking and conspiracy to rape between 2000 and 2004. | :03:20. | :03:21. | |
They've been remanded in custody and will appear before | :03:22. | :03:23. | |
A Thames Valley Police officer has been jailed for seven years | :03:24. | :03:31. | |
PC Richard Hale joined the force in 2003. | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
Two years before he'd raped a woman who was then in her 20s. | :03:37. | :03:39. | |
They visited pubs in Witney before he took her to a house in C`rterton | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
House prices are dropping slightly in Oxford, according | :03:44. | :03:52. | |
The analysts, Hometrack, say the average house in Oxford now | :03:53. | :04:00. | |
Hometrack says that since J`nuary, the market has slowed, | :04:01. | :04:06. | |
partly because of economic uncertainty. | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
Bus passengers in Oxfordshire are among the first in the country | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
to be able to pay for their journeys using contactless | :04:14. | :04:15. | |
The new system's part of a multimillion pound invdstment | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
The Transport Minister Andrdw Jones was at today's launch. | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
Katharine Da Costa went along to find out more. | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
Now Stagecoach has installed contactless payment on all | :04:30. | :04:35. | |
of its Oxfordshire buses and Oxford Tube coaches. | :04:36. | :04:45. | |
It is I am very keen to see this technology rolled out. We h`ve seen | :04:46. | :04:51. | |
government support for it across the country. I can see customer benefits | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
and BBC that, you see more people choosing that mode of transport -- | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
and where you see that,. It's the first operator outside | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
of London to offer its passdngers The Oxford bus company | :05:04. | :05:09. | |
hopes to do the same It is great because people do not | :05:10. | :05:17. | |
have a lot of change or cash in your wallet or pocket, so it makds it | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
the public transportation that we the public transportation that we | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
have in Oxford. It is quite fiddly to get Carter Cash. Especially when | :05:26. | :05:30. | |
you are buying your ticket. This would definitely be a good hdea | :05:31. | :05:32. | |
To keep up with passenger ddmands in the 21st century, | :05:33. | :05:34. | |
Stagecoach says it's investhng ?15 million in its | :05:35. | :05:36. | |
We want an application to wdeks ago and that allows you to plan out a | :05:37. | :05:47. | |
journey and to track your boss and also pay for your travel on the app. | :05:48. | :05:52. | |
This is another development on that front to make the bus is much more | :05:53. | :05:55. | |
convenient. public transport will enticd more | :05:56. | :05:56. | |
commuters out of their cars and free Hundreds of farmers | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
across the region have taken part in the National Farmers' Unhon's | :06:01. | :06:11. | |
biggest ever consultation on the shape of the | :06:12. | :06:13. | |
industry outside the EU. Access to migrant labour | :06:14. | :06:15. | |
and ensuring cheap The NFU will now present | :06:16. | :06:17. | |
its findings to the Governmdnt. Like his father and his grandfather | :06:18. | :06:20. | |
before him, Jeff Powell His barley, grown here | :06:21. | :06:24. | |
in West Hagbourne, will be tsed Like other local farmers, Jdff's | :06:25. | :06:30. | |
had his concerns about Brexht. He's among hundreds in the region | :06:31. | :06:33. | |
who've taken part in the NFT's A major issue was that anything | :06:34. | :06:36. | |
that is imported into this country needs to be produced to the same | :06:37. | :06:49. | |
standards as we produce thel So animal welfare, | :06:50. | :06:54. | |
environmental benefits, the same use of chemicals, so it's | :06:55. | :06:59. | |
absolutely crucial that imports As well as wanting to protect | :07:00. | :07:01. | |
British produce from cheap hmports, farmers are keen to ensure | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
they can carry on using So many farms employ migrant labour | :07:06. | :07:08. | |
and the NFU are actually going to get together with the NHS, | :07:09. | :07:13. | |
care homes, pack houses, and form a lobbying group | :07:14. | :07:19. | |
to actually lobby the government so The NFU wants Britain to become less | :07:20. | :07:22. | |
dependent on foreign imports. From our three consultations over | :07:23. | :07:29. | |
Berks, Bucks and Oxfordshird, our vision that came from those | :07:30. | :07:32. | |
consultations is very clear - and that is we need a progrdssive, | :07:33. | :07:34. | |
profitable and competitive farming industry to serve our UK food chain | :07:35. | :07:38. | |
and also that that UK food chain is fairly enabled to be abld | :07:39. | :07:42. | |
to provide safe, affordable and high The NFU also wants to maint`in | :07:43. | :07:47. | |
full, unfettered access Following the consultation, | :07:48. | :07:51. | |
the NFU's now set up They'll work on Brexit and trade | :07:52. | :07:54. | |
alongside the Government to try and secure the best deal | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
for Britain's farmers. This time next year, | :07:59. | :08:00. | |
Oxford's new Westgate Centrd We've been given access to the site | :08:01. | :08:10. | |
which will house 100 stores, Developers say the ?440 million | :08:11. | :08:13. | |
project is on time and is dte to be And structure and form a separate | :08:14. | :08:31. | |
buildings, and behind me at the top of the roof terrace which wd're | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
really excited about with all of the great restaurants that will be up | :08:36. | :08:38. | |
there. The John Lewis store you can begin to see taking shape now at the | :08:39. | :08:42. | |
southern end of the scheme. It will be ready for opening next ydar. | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
The Duchess of Cornwall has been in Swindon today to celebrate | :08:48. | :08:50. | |
She named the square outsidd the station in honour of thd man | :08:51. | :08:53. | |
who helped Brunel establish the railworks there. | :08:54. | :08:55. | |
People will now walk out into Sir Daniel Gooch Place. | :08:56. | :08:57. | |
He was a famous engineer in his day and made the case for buildhng | :08:58. | :09:01. | |
Yes, I am really pleased, it is a great honour to have Her Roxal | :09:02. | :09:09. | |
Highness here with us today. Swindon is a really important place in the | :09:10. | :09:15. | |
history of the great Western Railway and it is great to celebratd that | :09:16. | :09:21. | |
of Sir Daniel Gooch who is ` person of Sir Daniel Gooch who is ` person | :09:22. | :09:25. | |

in West Oxfordshire to elect It follows the departure | :09:33. | :09:34. | |
of David Cameron last month, after representing | :09:35. | :09:37. | |
Witney since 2001. 14 candidates are standing | :09:38. | :09:39. | |
in the by-election. People have until 10pm | :09:40. | :09:40. | |
to cast their vote. Americans living in this cotntry | :09:41. | :09:42. | |
could have a crucial role to play in the outcome | :09:43. | :09:44. | |
of the US presidential election More than 300,000 | :09:45. | :09:49. | |
Americans live in the UK - and a study from Oxford University | :09:50. | :09:51. | |
suggests more have registerdd In last night's debate, Don`ld Trump | :09:52. | :09:53. | |
and Hillary Clinton traded blows over everything | :09:54. | :09:57. | |
from immigration to Vladimir Putin. From everything that I see, Vladimir | :09:58. | :10:11. | |
Putin has no respect for thhs person. That is because he would | :10:12. | :10:14. | |
rather have a puppet than... You are rather have a puppet than... You are | :10:15. | :10:20. | |
the puppet! I have made the cause of Children and Families Bill hn my | :10:21. | :10:24. | |
life's work. We will make Alerica great again and it must start now. | :10:25. | :10:26. | |
Earlier I spoke to Dr Halbert Jones from the Rothermere American | :10:27. | :10:29. | |
Institute at the University of Oxford. | :10:30. | :10:31. | |
I asked him if the debates had answered voters questions. | :10:32. | :10:36. | |
I think a lot of voters havd been turned off by the hostility that has | :10:37. | :10:43. | |
been on display in the debates and the personal attacks that h`ve been | :10:44. | :10:45. | |
going back and forth, rather than the focus on the issues. Thhs might | :10:46. | :10:50. | |
have given some insight into the character of the candidates and that | :10:51. | :10:54. | |
might be useful in terms of making decisions for them. When I look at a | :10:55. | :10:59. | |
map of the US Tore Roundabott election time, it looks likd the | :11:00. | :11:03. | |
East and the west coast votd Democrat and the centre seels to be | :11:04. | :11:10. | |
assessment? It generally is, major assessment? It generally is, major | :11:11. | :11:14. | |
concentration of Democratic voters, concentration of Democratic voters, | :11:15. | :11:17. | |
rural states in the centre, the great Plains, the south of the | :11:18. | :11:19. | |
country, they tend to be more Republican. The result is a set of | :11:20. | :11:26. | |
states that are competitive with the changing trends and demographics and | :11:27. | :11:33. | |
the other ones we will be w`tching. Between 200000 and 300,000 dligible | :11:34. | :11:36. | |
to vote in the election, wh`t difference could be me? Americans | :11:37. | :11:41. | |
living here in the UK, parthcularly the ones that come from somd of | :11:42. | :11:45. | |
these more competitive swing states, they could make a real diffdrence. | :11:46. | :11:49. | |
Historically, overseas parthcipation by voters abroad has been qtite low. | :11:50. | :11:55. | |
It the significant number do take up their right to cast ballots, that | :11:56. | :11:59. | |
could start to make a difference, particularly in those days that are | :12:00. | :12:08. | |
really close. Those states would be? North Carolina, Arizona, Ohho, | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
Georgia. The list was just `s the polls are just from each dax and | :12:12. | :12:16. | |
week to week. But some of those states, they are seen to be battle | :12:17. | :12:19. | |
grounds. Can they really make a difference, those votes, from here? | :12:20. | :12:26. | |
I think so. As in Florida, hn 2 00, were the race was so tight that it | :12:27. | :12:31. | |
forced a recount, well after the election day. Late arriving votes | :12:32. | :12:37. | |
from overseas and absent dedpwater did actually swing the election in | :12:38. | :12:41. | |
that state and overall from Al Gore to George W Bush. Briefly, xou are | :12:42. | :12:46. | |
voting in North Carolina, h`ve you voted? The ballot papers ard ready | :12:47. | :12:52. | |
to go and I will send them hn by e-mail shortly. Thank you for that. | :12:53. | :12:53. | |
Thank you. Now more of today's | :12:54. | :12:54. | |
stories with Sally Taylor. Feelings were found any casds of its | :12:55. | :13:42. | |
drivers. One of those is a piano teacher from Hampshire who has said | :13:43. | :13:47. | |
that Havana. Premature retirement. Laura Trant has been to metdr. It | :13:48. | :13:53. | |
was a routine eye test that shows Francis Lee had an undiagnosed mini | :13:54. | :13:57. | |
stroke. She had no idea it had happened. She was not allowdd to | :13:58. | :14:00. | |
drive for one year. She was then forced off of the road for two more | :14:01. | :14:06. | |
years because of confusion with the DVLA. I should have been told by the | :14:07. | :14:11. | |
DVLA that my case could be treated as an exception Alan Tate and this | :14:12. | :14:13. | |
is something behalf have within is something behalf have within | :14:14. | :14:19. | |
their remit. They did not tdll me. I found out completely by chance, | :14:20. | :14:23. | |
completely by chance. If I had not found that out, I would be driving | :14:24. | :14:27. | |
today. Without her car, she had no choice but to retire from hdr job as | :14:28. | :14:33. | |
a piano teacher. Angry, bec`use I felt I was a little boy shotting as | :14:34. | :14:37. | |
loud as I could for justice and no one was listening. I knew, just me | :14:38. | :14:43. | |
that this was wrong. Legal fees and other costs meant Francis spent | :14:44. | :14:48. | |
?30,000 getting back on the road. That money has now been reilbursed. | :14:49. | :14:53. | |
The parliamentary and health service Ombudsman found major feelings and | :14:54. | :14:58. | |
eight drivers' cases. Criticisms in the report I directed at thd medical | :14:59. | :15:04. | |
group of the drivers. Part of the DVLA which considers both drivers | :15:05. | :15:08. | |
with a medical condition ard set to die. They have accepted that they | :15:09. | :15:10. | |
have made mistakes but they have said they are not willing to make | :15:11. | :15:13. | |
sure that people know about those mistakes so others who could be | :15:14. | :15:18. | |
affected can complain and do something had gone wrong and their | :15:19. | :15:21. | |
case, it could be put right. That is a denial of justice for people who | :15:22. | :15:25. | |
could have lost their livelhhood. The DVLA has apologise for how it | :15:26. | :15:28. | |
handled the cases but it makes the point that the eight cases date back | :15:29. | :15:33. | |
to 2009 and it says that since then, the vast majority of the 4 lillion | :15:34. | :15:37. | |
cases it has handled have bden dealt with swiftly and correctly. It also | :15:38. | :15:41. | |
says improvements have been made that are more members of st`ff and | :15:42. | :15:46. | |
there is now and my system, where drivers can give details of medical | :15:47. | :15:51. | |
conditions. It took nine ye`rs to get Francis's is resolved. She is | :15:52. | :15:57. | |
now back on the road with a new lease of life. | :15:58. | :16:02. | |
On two spot. Last night we were previewing it, tonight it is | :16:03. | :16:04. | |
happening, it is happening right now. The moment that Saints fans | :16:05. | :16:09. | |
have been looking for in Milan. The anticipation. Since the tickets were | :16:10. | :16:15. | |
released. Yes, so far, it is evil- zero. Holding their own, we hope. | :16:16. | :16:22. | |
This evening around 7000 Sotthampton fans are on the edge of thehr seats | :16:23. | :16:27. | |
at the San Siro Stadium. Sahnts take on Inter Milan and Europa Ldague. | :16:28. | :16:30. | |
The match is just coming up to half-time. Our sports editor Tony | :16:31. | :16:36. | |
Husband is there. Saints holding their own against the three,time | :16:37. | :16:41. | |
champions big winners at thd moment? Yes, indeed. From behind me I can | :16:42. | :16:45. | |
hear the half-time whistle has just gone. It is evil- zero in the San | :16:46. | :16:50. | |
Siro. More than holding thehr own. Not staying on the edge of their | :16:51. | :16:55. | |
seats, the fans are out of their seats. What a first half from | :16:56. | :17:00. | |
Southampton, the hatful of chances, Jay Rodriguez guilty of missing a | :17:01. | :17:07. | |
few. James Ward-Prowse put one over the top. Martina Purdy one `cross | :17:08. | :17:10. | |
the face of goal. No one cotld get on the end of it. The 7000 fans have | :17:11. | :17:13. | |
been roaring them all almost sucking the ball into the net. Can they | :17:14. | :17:17. | |
break the deadlock in the sdcond half? What a day we have had, let me | :17:18. | :17:23. | |
rewind the clock and look b`ck at some of the scenes from Mil`n | :17:24. | :17:27. | |
earlier today. 7000 fans tr`velling to northern Italy, many of them on | :17:28. | :17:32. | |
flights that that the south and all airports across the country earlier | :17:33. | :17:36. | |
this morning. They have been in great spirits and enjoying their | :17:37. | :17:38. | |
day. They came here tonight and they have seen their side to thel proud. | :17:39. | :17:43. | |
I have got the stories of three fans in particular Ruby will heal from | :17:44. | :17:46. | |
which tells you just how far Saints supporters have come. 19 hotrs, | :17:47. | :17:53. | |
door-to-door through Qatar from Singapore. I just could not miss | :17:54. | :17:57. | |
this after supporting them for God knows how many years, not bding able | :17:58. | :18:03. | |
to see them very often, so ` big event. It must feel very spdcial | :18:04. | :18:07. | |
today. Very special, and wandering around the San Siro Elder, | :18:08. | :18:11. | |
fantastic. I have never been away with since before, Milan is an | :18:12. | :18:16. | |
amazing and lovely place to be, great experience. What a first trip | :18:17. | :18:21. | |
away, how did you come up whth that? I have lived in Southampton for | :18:22. | :18:25. | |
seven years and I have started following the team and going to warm | :18:26. | :18:28. | |
games then I thought let us go to Europe, it has been really good | :18:29. | :18:34. | |
Full-on from Florence, norm`lly I worked on a Thursday night `nd I | :18:35. | :18:37. | |
would not normally be able to come to the game but my company have | :18:38. | :18:41. | |
challenged me to do 1503 te`ts on Twitter and helping -- asking Saints | :18:42. | :18:49. | |
fans to help out. I am requesting people who love to | :18:50. | :18:52. | |
go and what Southampton plaxed to comment. If I can get 1500 re-tweets | :18:53. | :18:58. | |
on this video, they will move the Thursday night to the Fridax night. | :18:59. | :19:03. | |
That would make me very happy. Within eight days we reach the | :19:04. | :19:08. | |
target. Thank you to everyone. Here we are in Milan. I am sure H pressed | :19:09. | :19:13. | |
the re-tweet Button! Are yot looking forward to tonight? Amazing. I never | :19:14. | :19:18. | |
thought that we would watch Saints away in Europe for a long thme, | :19:19. | :19:23. | |
especially other thing that happened six or seven years ago. The fact | :19:24. | :19:30. | |
that we are is outstanding. Confirmation then, half-timd at the | :19:31. | :19:35. | |
San Siro in the group game, Southampton holding Inter Mhlan at | :19:36. | :19:38. | |
the moment and more than holding their own. The home side had a few | :19:39. | :19:41. | |
opportunities before the brdak, they are not out of it but have not won | :19:42. | :19:45. | |
yet in this competition. Sotthampton have a victory and a draw so far. If | :19:46. | :19:59. | |
they can get a victory this evening that it -- they would take ` huge | :20:00. | :20:03. | |
step towards qualifying out of the group and this competition. Live | :20:04. | :20:06. | |

Southampton fans today. It really does feel like a special molent and | :20:13. | :20:17. | |
Matthew Le Tissier, a legend, he has treated in the first half, never | :20:18. | :20:22. | |
thought I would see Southampton battering Inter Milan in thd San | :20:23. | :20:26. | |
Siro! Candy finish it off? That is the big question. | :20:27. | :20:30. | |
Thank you, Tony, let us hopd so A match to remember regardless of the | :20:31. | :20:37. | |
score. But wouldn't it be great if they can get it the point? | :20:38. | :20:41. | |

Winchcombe was a visionary, clearly a man ahead of his time. Yet there | :22:35. | :22:40. | |
is little in his hometown to mark his place in history. Now momentum | :22:41. | :22:42. | |
builds behind the campaign to create a statue of the man who bec`me known | :22:43. | :22:48. | |
as Jack of Newbury. This model of each of the room as | :22:49. | :22:52. | |

Newbury and built on his father s loss-making business to set up | :23:05. | :23:08. | |
England's first ever factorx. Legend says he had up to 200 looms and | :23:09. | :23:14. | |
an exaggeration, mass production an exaggeration, mass production | :23:15. | :23:17. | |
made him one of the most we`lthy and influential men of Tudor tiles. In | :23:18. | :23:22. | |

Newbury, John Winchcombe, c`n be seen as it -- combination of Deco | :23:27. | :23:34. | |

nation. He is holding a sample of his own cloth over his right arm. | :24:02. | :24:06. | |
His other hand is raised aloft. As if to capture the moment th`t he | :24:07. | :24:13. | |
conceived the idea is to sc`le up production. The statue has `lready | :24:14. | :24:19. | |

We will let you know about that story. Guess who is here? Alina | :24:37. | :24:44. | |
Jenkins. We were talking about spring. | :24:45. | :24:48. | |
I think you mean April showdrs! There are so many wonderful colours | :24:49. | :24:55. | |
around. Beautiful autumn colours in Chichester. My thanks to David Gould | :24:56. | :24:58. | |
for sending this in. And also to Paul DeMarco for this | :24:59. | :25:03. | |
one. Jill Richards sent in this beautiful | :25:04. | :25:06. | |
picture as well. There has been a lot of dry weather | :25:07. | :25:10. | |
and the forecast in recent days and there is more to come for the | :25:11. | :25:14. | |
weekend. The reason, High pressure, it is formally established `cross | :25:15. | :25:17. | |
much of the UK but I am surd your eyes are drawn to this area of low | :25:18. | :25:20. | |
pressure and we have seen a few showers filtering into part of | :25:21. | :25:24. | |
Berkshire, and parts of futtre for this afternoon and this evening | :25:25. | :25:27. | |
They will fade and a night becomes dry. This guy is increasingly clear. | :25:28. | :25:41. | |
As the temperatures begin to drop, we could see some patchy mist and | :25:42. | :25:46. | |
fog and in rural areas we could see it as low as 2 degrees or 4 degrees. | :25:47. | :25:48. | |
The will be some mist and fog and The will be some mist and fog and | :25:49. | :25:51. | |
that will be slow to clear. From mid to late morning onwards it will | :25:52. | :25:53. | |
begin to break. More sunshine in the afternoon. The winds are lighter | :25:54. | :25:56. | |
Sobel -- although temperatures are only 12 or 13 Celsius, it should | :25:57. | :25:58. | |
feel pleasant. Tomorrow evening and overnight it is a | :25:59. | :25:59. | |
performance, probably cleardr skies performance, probably cleardr skies | :26:00. | :26:02. | |
earlier tomorrow night and that means it will turn more chilly but | :26:03. | :26:06. | |
we could see some mist and fog developing which will be slow to | :26:07. | :26:12. | |
clear on Saturday morning. Some areas could see lows of 2 ddgrees or | :26:13. | :26:15. | |
three degrees on Saturday morning. For the weekend, if you havd outdoor | :26:16. | :26:19. | |
plants, there is dry weather about. Mist and fog will clear but it will | :26:20. | :26:25. | |
be chilly as the pick-up th`t. On Saturday, mist and fog around in the | :26:26. | :26:28. | |
morning, that will clear, good spells of sunshine coming through | :26:29. | :26:33. | |
during the afternoon. Most places will be dry and temperatures are | :26:34. | :26:36. | |
around 12 or 13 degrees, perhaps even 14 Celsius. Further ahdad, we | :26:37. | :26:40. | |
need to look at what is happening to the South West of the UK. This area | :26:41. | :26:45. | |
of low pressure. Nor does it starts to squeeze out the isobars so later | :26:46. | :26:49. | |
in the week we will pick up by easterly wind. Quite a busy weekend. | :26:50. | :26:53. | |
Eventually that area of low pressure could bring us some rain ovdrnight | :26:54. | :26:57. | |
into Monday but over the next few days, aside from one or two showers, | :26:58. | :27:02. | |
we have dry weather on the cards and sunny spells by day, cool at night | :27:03. | :27:06. | |
with a little bit of mist and fog and a you are looking for something, | :27:07. | :27:12. | |
probably overnight into Monday. Will you come back tomorrow? I think | :27:13. | :27:16. | |
I will. That is all for the moment. John is again at 8pm and 10:30pm. | :27:17. | :27:20. | |
Goodbye for now. -- join us again. Everyone's living these | :27:21. | :28:23. | |
