:04:46. > :04:50.The flowers and fruit in these boxes come here,

:04:51. > :04:56.Expansion means opening manx more destinations like this.

:04:57. > :04:59.It gives us stability, it makes us able to

:05:12. > :05:15.It means that we know that we can strongly expand,

:05:16. > :05:18.we can go out and buy a few more trucks, perhaps.

:05:19. > :05:23.The freight industry has argued that, in terms

:05:24. > :05:27.of global competition, we're all already playing c`tch up.

:05:35. > :05:39.Heathrow is the UK's biggest port by value,

:06:00. > :06:03.Since then, the twin rotor helicopters have become

:07:01. > :07:05.Squadron at RAF Benson trains the Chinook and Puma crews, and that

:07:06. > :07:10.means understanding from local communities. Every exercise is

:07:11. > :07:13.critical to train our pilots to make sure they can prepare for

:07:14. > :07:17.operations. As soon as they leave here, they are ready to go out on

:07:18. > :07:24.operations, so it is vital that this training takes place. Once training

:07:25. > :07:29.is complete, these recruits will join one of three squadrons, ready

:07:30. > :07:30.to take on the next chapter in the future of the tunic.

:07:31. > :07:33.From the sounds of buzzing flies and barking dogs to the smells

:07:34. > :07:36.of herb gardens and cesspits, the past is being brought to life

:07:37. > :07:37.through a pioneering virtual reality experience.

:07:38. > :07:40.A team from the University of Reading has used computer

:07:41. > :07:42.technology to let users explore a Roman settlement

:07:43. > :07:49.Today, it's a few very old walls around a field.

:07:50. > :07:52.But once it might have looked like this.

:07:53. > :07:56.This is a recreation of Silchester, a Roman village close to Re`ding.

:07:57. > :08:02.Sound and, crucially, smells help bring it to lifd.

:08:03. > :08:05.As we wandered around the virtual village,

:08:06. > :08:10.we hit trigger points which release smells.

:08:11. > :08:14.If I pull the scent cartridge out, it has got a cotton wool pad in it

:08:15. > :08:17.which has got the scent soaked into it.

:08:18. > :08:20.A fan will blow across this, into your face,

:08:21. > :08:23.then you will get the smell of that wafting towards you.

:08:24. > :08:27.That smells pretty horrible, whatever it is.

:08:28. > :08:34.at Fishbourne Roman Palace near Chichester,

:08:35. > :08:38.where it's forming part of a Roman Army week.

:08:39. > :08:45.When you went to where the cows and pigs were,

:08:46. > :08:52.Most children like interacthve things, so they immerse

:08:53. > :08:57.themselves in the experiencd, which is good.

:08:58. > :08:59.As well as being an educational tool for children and academics,

:09:00. > :09:03.the system's creators hope ht will have wider practical uses.

:09:04. > :09:06.If someone is building a new hospital, you might think that one

:09:07. > :09:09.of the characteristics is the smell, and the sounds within it.

:09:10. > :09:12.If you are looking at developing a building

:09:13. > :09:17.like that, that if you can incorporate some of

:09:18. > :09:19.those senses into it, you will hopefully come up

:09:20. > :09:23.with a more realistic and better design.

:09:24. > :09:34.So this is modern technologx using the past to help the future.

:09:35. > :09:47.Overnight tonight the Met Office has issued a yellow fog warning.

:09:48. > :09:49.Dense fog in places, which could become quite widespread

:09:50. > :09:52.during the early hours of the morning.

:09:53. > :09:55.Now, the fog may reduce visibility up to 50 metres.

:09:56. > :09:58.In the countryside, temperatures will fall away to six

:09:59. > :10:03.These are the temperatures in our towns and cities with light

:10:04. > :10:09.Tomorrow daytime, the winds will change direction

:10:10. > :10:11.to a south-westerly airflow, and the fog may be slow to clear

:10:12. > :10:19.It may take up until 10am or 11am before it does finally clear,

:10:20. > :10:22.and once it does there will be varying amounts of cloud and sunny

:10:23. > :10:25.spells, the odd isolated shower but most places will be dry,

:10:26. > :10:27.with that light south-westerly wind drawing in some milder

:10:28. > :10:31.Tomorrow, temperatures will reach 15 Celsius,

:10:32. > :10:36.so through the course of tolorrow afternoon the winds will relain

:10:37. > :10:41.light, and we will see high pressure build even further.

:10:42. > :10:45.High pressure continues to build in through Thursday,

:10:46. > :10:49.the winds fall lighter, and temperatures will reach

:10:50. > :10:52.Looking ahead, fog is possible each morning.

:10:53. > :10:55.It will be quite a murky st`rt each day, but sunny spells will break

:10:56. > :11:07.settled and on the mild side. Nick now has all the national weather.

:11:08. > :11:14.Hello. Autumn is the season of change, most noticeably with those

:11:15. > :11:17.autumn colours on display today in Buckinghamshire, as photographed by

:11:18. > :11:20.one of our weather watchers. Always helps when there is blue sky above.

:11:21. > :11:23.Our weather is always changing regardless of the season. One of

:11:24. > :11:27.those changes is taking place, we are losing last week's Easterly

:11:28. > :11:32.winds and now a westerly wind. That means it's turning milder by day and

:11:33. > :11:36.night but it does mean the return of Atlantic weather fronts, especially

:11:37. > :11:38.to north-western parts of the UK. The reason, high pressure
