:00:02. > :00:10.Hello, I'm Sally Taylor, welcome to South Today. In tonight's
:00:10. > :00:17.programme: The South remembers, and for many
:00:17. > :00:22.the tributes to the fallen are very personal.

:00:26. > :00:30.being in the infantry, that is what they were for, they were there to
:00:30. > :00:35.fight and he loved every minute of The next generation remembers those
:00:35. > :00:40.who gave their lives as a new war memorial is unveiled.
:00:40. > :00:42.Proud of them because they represented our country, and they

:00:45. > :00:48.smartcard as one train company takes the plunge.
:00:48. > :00:58.And the hard-working ten-year-old carer who has just won a top
:00:58. > :01:04.
:01:04. > :01:08.At 11am this morning, people fell silent right across the South to
:01:08. > :01:11.remember those who have died for their country. It is a national
:01:11. > :01:16.tradition that began 93 years ago, and it seems to grow more powerful
:01:16. > :01:20.with every passing year. In Berkshire, the Poppy Appeal is set
:01:20. > :01:22.to break records, with nearly a million pounds raised. Today in
:01:22. > :01:32.Southampton, new additions to the city's war memorial were unveiled,
:01:32. > :01:34.
:01:34. > :01:37.and our reporter Steve Humphrey is there for us now.
:01:37. > :01:41.The service held here at the Cenotaph in Southampton was one of
:01:42. > :01:46.many held across the south, and it was a very special ceremony because
:01:46. > :01:52.they have unveiled these brand new glass panels which include the
:01:52. > :01:56.names of over 3,000 local people who have died in wars and conflicts
:01:56. > :02:00.since 1914. The reason they have put the names on the glass panels
:02:00. > :02:06.is that the original names on the 19-year-old Senedd have have begun
:02:06. > :02:09.to a road. Amongst those taking part today were friends and family
:02:09. > :02:13.of some of those killed in Afghanistan. Chris Coneybeer has
:02:13. > :02:17.been talking to the father of a Reading soldier who was killed in
:02:17. > :02:26.Helmand province, and has also been speaking to a senior army officer
:02:26. > :02:35.whose regiment has suffered very many losses over recent years.
:02:35. > :02:39.It began with a him. Then, from different points around the parade
:02:39. > :02:46.ground, the names of all of those who have died since the rifles were
:02:46. > :02:56.formed five years ago were read out, 77 of them. Corporal Robinson,
:02:56. > :03:01.
:03:01. > :03:04.Afghanistan, 2009. Then, the We have clearly suffered a
:03:04. > :03:09.tremendous number of soldiers killed, and so as a family it is
:03:10. > :03:14.critical for us to come together and remember those who have fallen.
:03:14. > :03:19.The focal point of the service was the new memorial which records the
:03:19. > :03:23.names of those from Ford Battalion the rifles who have died in Iraq,
:03:23. > :03:28.Afghanistan and the UK. There were relatives at the service, among
:03:28. > :03:33.them some who had all too recently suffered a loss. But the work goes
:03:33. > :03:38.on. For rifles is currently the spearhead battalion, ready to
:03:38. > :03:42.respond at short notice to go anywhere needed. Across the south,
:03:42. > :03:46.many paused for thought today. Chris Green laid a wreath and
:03:46. > :03:51.tended the grave of his son Richard, who was killed in Afghanistan last
:03:51. > :03:55.year. When he was in combat, that is what he lived for, really, and
:03:55. > :04:00.he felt being in the infantry, that is what they were for, they were
:04:00. > :04:06.there to fight and he loved every minute of that. I guess the nation
:04:06. > :04:10.is feeling a pride for people like him, and we should feel a pride for
:04:10. > :04:19.them, we should be proud of what they did and it is about
:04:19. > :04:24.remembering them as well, which is important to the families.
:04:24. > :04:28.Amongst those holding special ceremonies today were the people
:04:28. > :04:33.down at Lee-on-the-Solent. They have added two names to their war
:04:33. > :04:37.memorial, one is a local man who died in Malaya in 1950, another is
:04:37. > :04:41.a local man who died in the Falklands war in 1982.
:04:41. > :04:46.For two minutes, many people stopped what they were doing at
:04:46. > :04:50.11am. The time that the guns on the Western Front had fallen silent at
:04:50. > :04:56.the end of the First World War. Our high streets and in big shopping
:04:56. > :04:59.centres, people remembered. At railway stations, there was a pause
:04:59. > :05:06.amidst the fossil and bustle of a busy Friday morning. For young and
:05:06. > :05:10.old, it was a moment to stop and reflect. At Lee-on-the-Solent,
:05:10. > :05:14.workers from a nearby building site joined those gathered for the
:05:14. > :05:19.ceremony at the War Memorial. Here, they unveiled two new names which
:05:19. > :05:23.have just been added to the list of the fallen. Petty Officer David
:05:23. > :05:28.Briggs died on HMS Sheffield in the Falklands war in 1982 as he battled
:05:28. > :05:34.to try to save the ship after it was hit by a missile. Corporal
:05:34. > :05:39.Bryant was killed when an aircraft crashed in Malaya in August, 1950.
:05:39. > :05:46.It is what we have always wanted, and it has come at long last, come
:05:46. > :05:51.to light up. It is where he should be. Amongst those at today's
:05:51. > :05:58.service were some of the men who served alongside -- alongside David
:05:58. > :06:02.Briggs at HMS Sheffield and remembered his bravery. A little
:06:02. > :06:08.bit of tears. It is one of those little stories from wartime that
:06:08. > :06:15.you remember, you know? Just the bravery of it. I don't even think I
:06:15. > :06:19.would have done it. It has taken some time to add the names of
:06:19. > :06:23.Corporal Bryant and Petty Officer David Briggs to the memorial, but
:06:23. > :06:28.at last their sacrifice is recognised alongside those who gave
:06:28. > :06:32.their lives in the first and second world wars.
:06:32. > :06:36.A large number of services will be taking place in the south across
:06:37. > :06:44.the weekend. Later in the programme we will look at how young people in
:06:44. > :06:47.the south have been getting involved in acts of remembrance.
:06:47. > :06:50.And just to let you know about a special documentary running on
:06:50. > :06:53.Radio Berkshire this weekend. It is presented by Helena Tym, whose 19-
:06:53. > :07:02.year-old son Cyrus Thatcher was killed in Afghanistan in 2009. You
:07:02. > :07:05.can hear The Lion Of Afghanistan Danilo Restivo, who murdered
:07:05. > :07:07.Bournemouth mother Heather Barnett, has been sentenced to 30 years by
:07:07. > :07:11.an Italian court for killing another woman, 16-year-old Elisa
:07:11. > :07:15.Claps. In June this year, Restivo was sentenced to life without
:07:15. > :07:18.parole for killing and mutilating his neighbour, Heather Barnett.
:07:18. > :07:23.Today, the court in Italy tried the 39-year-old in his absence for
:07:23. > :07:27.killing a teenager in Italy 18 years ago. The body of Elisa Claps
:07:27. > :07:30.was found last year in the attic of a church in her home town of
:07:30. > :07:33.Potenza. Five boys have been found guilty of
:07:33. > :07:36.carrying out an armed robbery at a Southampton newsagents. The
:07:36. > :07:38.teenagers, including one who was only 13-years-old at the time,
:07:38. > :07:44.threatened the shopkeeper of the Spring Road newsagents in Sholing
:07:44. > :07:53.with a gun. The judge said the robbery was so serious he was
:07:53. > :07:56.willing to lift a ban preventing the boys being named. All five will
:07:56. > :07:59.be detained for 18 months. The families of two severely
:07:59. > :08:02.disabled adults have won a landmark legal battle over attempts by the
:08:02. > :08:05.Isle of Wight Council to make cuts to its social care budget. A High
:08:05. > :08:09.Court judge today ruled that changes which affected who could
:08:09. > :08:14.claim financial help were unlawful. The council says it will not appeal
:08:14. > :08:19.the decision. Nancy Jackson reports. The Isle of Wight Council needs to
:08:19. > :08:22.save �1.6 million on adult social care. It decided to reassess the
:08:22. > :08:29.708 people on the island who receive social care funding from
:08:29. > :08:31.the council so that the most vulnerable were protected. 47
:08:31. > :08:41.people were identified as needing additional help, but 32 people had
:08:41. > :08:46.their service reduced. The carers of two of those people went to
:08:46. > :08:50.court to argue that the process had not been carried out properly.
:08:50. > :08:52.The Isle of Wight moved from meeting the needs of every but it
:08:52. > :08:58.has defied as having substantial needs to only meeting those where
:08:58. > :09:03.they defined it as being able to keep them safe and that time. We
:09:03. > :09:08.argued successfully that that is contrary to government guidance.
:09:08. > :09:10.Today, the judge agreed with their case, saying the consultation
:09:10. > :09:17.process used to inform the councillors had not been carried
:09:17. > :09:20.out properly. The council says it does not want to waste any more
:09:20. > :09:23.money on legal action and will go back to the previous system of
:09:23. > :09:27.assessing eligibility for funding. We will read and study this lengthy
:09:27. > :09:32.judgment carefully to ensure that we do the right thing, that is the
:09:32. > :09:36.main aim, to do the right thing. The decision will help safeguard
:09:36. > :09:46.adult social care services on the Isle of Wight and be welcomed by
:09:46. > :09:46.
:09:46. > :09:49.the National Autistic Society. Shoppers escaped harm in Dorchester
:09:49. > :09:52.this morning after a lorry reversed into scaffolding on High West
:09:52. > :09:55.Street. The metal framework became wedged to the back of the lorry,
:09:55. > :10:01.blocking the road outside the Medusa apothecary shop. The mangled
:10:01. > :10:06.scaffolding had to be dismantled before the road could reopen.
:10:06. > :10:13.Could the rail ticket soon become redundant? Trials of the next
:10:13. > :10:15.generation of train ticket got under way in Sussex today. No more
:10:15. > :10:18.pieces of paper, this smartcard technology does away with all that.
:10:18. > :10:21.Soon it will become the normal way to pay for public transport
:10:21. > :10:22.throughout the country. Here is our transport correspondent Paul
:10:22. > :10:28.Clifton. Within a year or two, calves like
:10:28. > :10:34.this will be replacing all paper tickets on the railway. And,
:10:34. > :10:40.outside London, this is the first. The transport minister came to mark
:10:40. > :10:44.the occasion. It is different from London's Oyster card, which is must
:10:44. > :10:48.-- which is much simpler. Department for Transport is
:10:48. > :10:52.committed to having the majority of journeys in England usable with
:10:52. > :10:57.smart card technology by the end of 2014. Brighton and Lewes were
:10:57. > :11:01.chosen for the trial because there is a range of business and leisure
:11:01. > :11:06.travellers, season-ticket holders and occasional passengers. In time,
:11:06. > :11:10.our ticket should be the same one that you can use on local buses in
:11:10. > :11:14.Brighton and Crawley so people will not have to carry lots of cards.
:11:14. > :11:18.The technology that we are using is such that it can be used for a
:11:19. > :11:23.number of operators in time, but it is early days and first step.
:11:23. > :11:28.could mean the end of staffed ticket of this is because these
:11:28. > :11:31.smart cards can be recharged at machines. Being able to ensure that
:11:31. > :11:35.if you tickets do not go through the barrier, that should never
:11:36. > :11:40.happen again. It should speed up the process and be a good idea.
:11:40. > :11:44.with airlines, before long paper tickets will become a thing of the
:11:44. > :11:49.past. Everybody will use these to buy their train tickets and their
:11:49. > :11:53.bus tickets. Beyond that, these will eventually be buried with your
:11:53. > :11:56.credit card inside your mobile phone.
:11:56. > :12:04.Still to come in this evening's South Today, Reham has the promise
:12:04. > :12:13.of better weather this weekend. It has been dull and damp as well
:12:13. > :12:18.as dreary all week, but I have some This time next week, the bear will
:12:18. > :12:21.be back and we will be live at the National Motor Museum at Beaulieu.
:12:21. > :12:24.In the last of our films showing where your money goes, Reham Khan
:12:24. > :12:34.went to Boscombe in Bournemouth to meet a fiddle orchestra who have
:12:34. > :12:38.been funded by Children In Need. I am here in Boscombe, considered
:12:38. > :12:43.to be a deprived and run-down area of Bournemouth, but I am here to
:12:43. > :12:48.meet a group of young people who, thanks to BBC Children In Need, are
:12:48. > :12:58.not causing a nuisance at all. Rather, they are making sweet music
:12:58. > :13:08.
:13:08. > :13:11.Music can be used as an amazing tour for supporting people. We do
:13:11. > :13:16.work where the brink groups of young people together, some may be
:13:16. > :13:21.from challenging services -- challenging backgrounds, some may
:13:21. > :13:25.not get an opportunity to learn or take on these activities otherwise,
:13:25. > :13:31.and those young people have the opportunity to work with the most
:13:31. > :13:37.fantastic musicians and music leaders, primarily Jack Maguire.
:13:37. > :13:42.Jack is brilliant and eccentric and crazy. He believes in every child,
:13:42. > :13:52.just totally encourages them to fill their potential. Jack is quite
:13:52. > :13:54.
:13:54. > :14:01.I feel so proud of them, I feel very personally and lated. They are
:14:01. > :14:06.great kids, you ask them to do something and they do it. The
:14:06. > :14:10.achievement target is to have a go, that is it, and by opening up that,
:14:10. > :14:19.the children then have confidence, and by having a go and finding they
:14:19. > :14:23.achieve more than if you put pressure on them. BBC Children In
:14:23. > :14:27.Need has been fantastic in providing just over �11,000 over
:14:28. > :14:33.the course of three years, which enables us to plan from year to
:14:33. > :14:37.year to have some security and to be ambitious with the aims and the
:14:37. > :14:41.goals of the organisation and for the young people themselves to sail
:14:41. > :14:46.someone has invested in them, in their journey, through the project.
:14:46. > :14:51.We have had fantastic results with some of the children. One of our
:14:51. > :14:55.members went on to gain a scholarship to a score, and we ran
:14:55. > :15:01.a scholarship scheme as part of the orchestra so we can help
:15:01. > :15:06.individuals make progress and pursue a dream. My fingers get all
:15:06. > :15:10.muddled up, but the more you play it, the more used to you get.
:15:10. > :15:18.has just been absolutely amazing, it has changed our lives, to be
:15:18. > :15:21.honest, completely. Thank you, Children In Need!
:15:21. > :15:24.Children In Need next Friday, coming around fast.
:15:24. > :15:28.For this year's Children In Need, we set our reporters an Apprentice-
:15:28. > :15:38.style challenge. They spent a weekend on a business task that
:15:38. > :15:39.
:15:39. > :15:44.stretched their skills as well as their patience, as you will see.
:15:44. > :15:52.Your task is to create a purred sea bear fiend ice-cream and then sell
:15:52. > :16:01.it across the South. There is a major spanner in the work. A little
:16:01. > :16:11.bit of tension. It is not really ideal ice-cream weather. I am so
:16:11. > :16:21.
:16:21. > :16:25.nervous! That team, from day one, Two down, 498 to go.
:16:25. > :16:31.I am a tough on them, I can tell you, and you will find out what
:16:31. > :16:38.happens next week. What are idle sporting credentials?
:16:38. > :16:41.I was a modern Kent athlete in a former life!
:16:41. > :16:44.The road to Wembley begins in earnest tomorrow, and it is a
:16:44. > :16:47.massive weekend for little-known AFC Totton. They are among a
:16:47. > :16:51.handful of our non-League sides through to the first round of the
:16:51. > :16:54.FA cup. But it is a really big deal for them as it is the first time
:16:54. > :16:59.they have got this far. Andrew Giddings went to see how they are
:16:59. > :17:02.shaping up. Talked to Penny AFC Totton fan
:17:02. > :17:08.about a match to remember and this would feature highly, the final of
:17:08. > :17:14.the FA Vase in 2007. Four years later they are about to debut in
:17:14. > :17:20.the first round of the FA Cup prop up. It proves a point, and
:17:20. > :17:24.hopefully we can push on. It is a winnable game. They are in the
:17:24. > :17:28.Northern League, 5th position. We are at the top of the sudden
:17:28. > :17:32.premiere. There has been a buzz around the ground this week but not
:17:32. > :17:36.just because of their success in the Southern Premier League.
:17:36. > :17:42.Tomorrow, they will play in the first track of the FA Cup, hosting
:17:42. > :17:45.fellow non-League side Bradford Park Avenue. We have had reports
:17:45. > :17:50.that they are a good side, so we have to give it everything we have
:17:50. > :17:55.got on Saturday. Hopefully we will have a large crowd, which -- which
:17:55. > :17:58.will push the lads on. I think we can do it. Their opponents may not
:17:58. > :18:04.sound like the stuff dreams are made of but this is the most
:18:04. > :18:07.coveted round for semi-professional side. Deep down I wanted Charlton
:18:07. > :18:11.away or Sheffield United, but we have a good chance of getting to
:18:11. > :18:17.the second round, which would be fantastic. We are living the dream,
:18:17. > :18:21.a few lads have never been to this round, so we are just entering it.
:18:21. > :18:24.The club celebrates its centenary this season so a win tomorrow would
:18:24. > :18:27.make this an anniversary to remember.
:18:27. > :18:29.Good luck to them. Don't forget that BBC Radio Solent
:18:29. > :18:33.will have live commentary on that match, among others, on Saturday
:18:33. > :18:37.from 3pm. And good luck also to Basingstoke Town, who have reached
:18:37. > :18:40.the first round after an absence of five years. They are taking 150
:18:40. > :18:48.fans to Griffin Park, where they will take on League One side
:18:48. > :18:53.Brentford. They have got strengths, they are a
:18:53. > :19:00.few leagues Abydos, so by all intents and purposes they are
:19:00. > :19:03.strong favourites -- above boss. But upsets have happened, and there
:19:03. > :19:06.is no saying what could happen in the FA Cup.
:19:06. > :19:08.Salisbury City are the only other non-League team through from the
:19:08. > :19:10.South, they take on Arlesey Town. Elsewhere, Bournemouth host
:19:10. > :19:12.Gillingham, Aldershot travel to Maidenhead and Crawley Town are at
:19:12. > :19:15.Bury. In rugby, London Irish will be
:19:15. > :19:17.hoping to repeat last year's strong start to their Heineken Cup
:19:17. > :19:21.campaign when they welcome Edinburgh to the Madejski Stadium
:19:21. > :19:24.on Saturday. They will be without England full-back Delon Armitage,
:19:24. > :19:27.who was ruled out of the first two rounds earlier in the week after
:19:27. > :19:31.picking up a five-week suspension for a dangerous tackle on Bath's
:19:31. > :19:34.Tom Biggs. Becoming an Olympic swimmer takes
:19:34. > :19:38.hours of dedication and practice. But it is ten-year-old Charlotte
:19:38. > :19:43.Blake's dream, and she puts 100% in at her Brighton club in order to
:19:43. > :19:46.pursue it. But she is doing it at the same time as caring for her
:19:46. > :19:49.disabled mother, and her older sister, who has autism. That is why
:19:49. > :19:57.she has won a national award for being Young Swimmer Of The Year.
:19:57. > :20:01.John Young reports. At an age when most children are
:20:01. > :20:04.watching their parents run around them, Charlotte Blake is doing
:20:04. > :20:08.housework, helping with the evening meal, and helping her mother who
:20:08. > :20:14.has severe problems getting about. Her older sister also needs help as
:20:14. > :20:19.she has autism, and there is this, her passion. She only took it up
:20:19. > :20:24.recently. Is she committed? trained five times a week, Monday
:20:24. > :20:29.morning, Tuesday and Wednesday morning, Thursday evening, Friday
:20:29. > :20:32.evening and Saturday morning. week, she got her reward, being
:20:32. > :20:36.declared Young Swimmer Of The Year at a national ceremony. The
:20:36. > :20:40.organisers arranged for their winners to mingle in the water with
:20:40. > :20:45.a Olympic swimming stars. I will try to get picked for nationals and
:20:45. > :20:49.if I get that I will try to see if I can swim in the Olympics. I am so
:20:49. > :20:52.proud of her, life did not turn out how I expected it to, but she gets
:20:52. > :20:57.me out of bed in the morning and gives me something to really focus
:20:57. > :21:02.on. Charlotte clearly knows what she is focusing on once she has
:21:02. > :21:08.taken care of her family, and it is all squeezed in around what most
:21:08. > :21:11.ten-year-olds do most days, too. And as you settle down for your tea
:21:11. > :21:13.tonight, spare a thought for two Hampshire men who are battling
:21:13. > :21:15.through changing weather fronts in a race across the Atlantic.
:21:15. > :21:19.Hampshire-based Alex Thomson and his partner Guillermo Altadill are
:21:19. > :21:23.currently 43 miles off the lead in the Transat race. It may sound like
:21:23. > :21:26.a lot, but with the wind due to veer round tonight that could all
:21:26. > :21:34.change. Elsewhere, Mike Golding and Bruno Dubois, on board Gamesa, are
:21:35. > :21:40.some way off the leading pair in a close battle for third.
:21:40. > :21:45.Had it ever marathon on the cease. One you are talking about that,
:21:45. > :21:48.another sporting story for years. We are going to return to
:21:48. > :21:50.Remembrance Day and bring you pictures of one serving soldier who
:21:50. > :21:53.has come up with a unique way of marking today's occasion.
:21:53. > :21:56.Samantha Toop set herself the challenge of running one kilometre
:21:56. > :22:00.for every British soldier who has died in Afghanistan.
:22:00. > :22:04.It took her a week, and she ran 385 kilometres in all. That is 239
:22:04. > :22:12.miles for you who work in old money. And today she finished her epic
:22:12. > :22:16.journey in Bournemouth. I wasn't sure that I was actually
:22:16. > :22:20.able to do this, so I am really pleased I have managed to do it,
:22:20. > :22:25.but I don't think there was a doubt in my mind because to fall short of
:22:25. > :22:28.not honouring 385 soldiers would be horrific. They have given them
:22:28. > :22:34.everything, so I have put everything in to this.
:22:34. > :22:37.A lovely lady, congratulations to her. 385 kilometres is a long way,
:22:37. > :22:40.brilliant. So, many, many people getting
:22:40. > :22:41.involved in the Poppy Appeal in their own special ways. But how
:22:41. > :22:44.have children been getting involved today?
:22:44. > :22:46.In Horsham, a primary school stopped its classes so all 210
:22:46. > :22:49.pupils could attend a memorial service. And in Southampton,
:22:49. > :22:54.children have been helping to fundraise for the city's brand new
:22:55. > :23:00.memorial, which we saw earlier. Danielle Glavin takes up the story.
:23:00. > :23:04.It is so familiar to us and past generations, but so new to these
:23:04. > :23:11.children. St Mary's Primary School in Horsham stopped classes this
:23:12. > :23:16.morning so that pupils could experience a memorial service.
:23:16. > :23:20.I liked the trumpet a lot, it was quite cool to see the people from
:23:20. > :23:26.the army. The people who fought in the war, most of them were
:23:26. > :23:31.volunteers. Do you think they were very brave? Yes. Who have you come
:23:31. > :23:36.to remember? The people who fought in the war. What do you think of
:23:36. > :23:43.those people? I think they were quite brave. Afterwards they
:23:43. > :23:49.studied apparent. We are the dead, shot days ago... -- steadied
:23:49. > :23:54.apparent. Their teachers say it is important to remember the past,
:23:54. > :23:57.which was echoed by people in the pop-up poppy shop in town. It is
:23:57. > :24:06.important for them to see what we are doing at a mandate, it will go
:24:06. > :24:10.with them for the rest of their lives. -- at a young age.
:24:10. > :24:14.Southampton, pupils unveiled the city's new memorial, and it is
:24:14. > :24:22.thanks to them it is here. They have to raise the money to pay the
:24:22. > :24:26.bill. They were presented our country and they fought for us. --
:24:26. > :24:31.represented our play and trip. is important to remember people who
:24:31. > :24:36.have given their lives for our que trip. It is very important to us
:24:36. > :24:46.that they did this -- for our country. This new memorial ensures
:24:46. > :24:47.
:24:47. > :24:57.that the names of the fallen lid on indies Young Minds. -- live on in
:24:57. > :24:59.
:24:59. > :25:05.Someone has written in to ask you, what is mild? I just think about
:25:05. > :25:08.cheese! We are talking about mature weather tonight.
:25:08. > :25:18.Herbie and Hazel, waiting for the sun at Hamworthy Park. Aren't we
:25:18. > :25:18.
:25:18. > :25:22.It has been cloudy once again and there is rain on the way spreading
:25:22. > :25:27.to all parts this evening and overnight, and it will be mild and
:25:27. > :25:32.cloudy, mild meaning not a cute or severe, not a cold night ahead.
:25:32. > :25:36.Some heavy bursts of rain this evening and overnight but it will
:25:36. > :25:40.fizzle out past midnight as it eases eastwards, behind it a legacy
:25:40. > :25:45.of cloud, so grey and dull conditions for eastern fringes of
:25:45. > :25:50.our patch. Temperatures by dawn, 12-13 Celsius, above average for
:25:50. > :25:54.the time of year. The best chance of seeing the brightening up
:25:54. > :26:00.process tomorrow morning will be in the Far West, and we should see
:26:00. > :26:05.some decent spells of brightness, even some sunshine by the afternoon.
:26:05. > :26:09.A high temperature of 16 Celsius in any sunshine, very mild, and a
:26:09. > :26:13.lighter wind, so it will feel pleasant if you are out and about.
:26:13. > :26:17.Eastern areas will struggle with the cloud and with the temperatures.
:26:17. > :26:24.Into the evening, the same front travels northwards, increasing the
:26:24. > :26:28.cloud and bringing the odd spot of rain, but not too much. A murky
:26:28. > :26:31.start on Sunday, but the brightening up process will begin
:26:31. > :26:36.fairly quickly because we had a freshening suddenly breeze which
:26:36. > :26:42.will break up the cloud nicely. For Remembrance Sunday, for the parades,
:26:42. > :26:47.a high of 14 Celsius and the winds, up although fresh, but in the
:26:47. > :26:53.sunshine not feeling too unpleasant. On Monday, the theme changes a
:26:53. > :26:57.little bit. It is not going to be as breezy as Sunday, but the
:26:57. > :27:01.headache remains in predicting the cloud breaking up, so through
:27:02. > :27:06.Monday I expect there will be some decent sunshine and on Tuesday I
:27:06. > :27:11.think similar, cloudy at first, slowly brightening up, so the best
:27:11. > :27:20.bet is for the highest temperatures on Saturday, brighter on Sunday,
:27:20. > :27:23.settled but cooler by the beginning If you are a fan of local history,
:27:23. > :27:26.make sure you join Bruce Parker for a brand new series starting this
:27:26. > :27:28.weekend on BBC Radio Solent. From aviation to brewing, cruise liners
:27:28. > :27:31.to railways, Bruce will be celebrating the rich history of
:27:31. > :27:34.Hampshire, Dorset and the Isle of Wight. Bruce Parker's Magical
