:00:04. > :00:07.Hello, I'm Sally Taylor. Welcome to South Today. In tonight's
:00:07. > :00:17.programme: A lucky escape from this crash -
:00:17. > :00:17.
:00:17. > :00:21.how the pilot, one of the survivors, walked away with minor injuries.
:00:21. > :00:24.My choices were a river or tree, so I picked the fluffy list looking
:00:24. > :00:27.tree. In danger of falling silent - why
:00:27. > :00:30.the bells may not toll for the Olympics.
:00:30. > :00:39.The stowaway sparrow that has swapped the Med for the Solent and
:00:39. > :00:41.got them all a-twitter. It is getting fed every day, why go
:00:41. > :00:44.back to Turkey where they should Sparrow's?
:00:44. > :00:54.And, as the fictional War Horse film hits the silver screen, we
:00:54. > :00:57.
:00:57. > :00:59.hear the true tale of a Great War The pilot of a helicopter which
:00:59. > :01:08.crashed in Salisbury has been reliving the moment his aircraft
:01:08. > :01:13.lost power. Andy ridings was at the controls of the helicopter when it
:01:13. > :01:17.came down in woodland about a mile from the city centre. He and a
:01:17. > :01:21.passenger suffered minor injuries. Another passenger remains in
:01:21. > :01:26.hospital with cracked vertebrae. John Maguire has been to hear the
:01:26. > :01:32.tale of a remarkable estate. He is stiff, sore, has 70 staples
:01:32. > :01:35.in his head, but he is alive. Frightening is something to be
:01:35. > :01:40.instilled in you, you have time to think about it, but there was no
:01:40. > :01:44.time to become frightened and well on it. It was just, something went
:01:44. > :01:49.wrong and I had to do something. Little more than 24 hours since his
:01:49. > :01:53.helicopter crashed, Andy was back at work at his waste-management
:01:53. > :01:57.business near Bath reflecting on what might have been. Yesterday
:01:57. > :02:00.morning he was taking off after a meeting in Salisbury and realised
:02:00. > :02:10.the engine had failed and there was little time to react. He feared the
:02:10. > :02:13.
:02:13. > :02:18.worst. I thought that all the way, but as human body is built of four
:02:18. > :02:24.fight or flight, the adrenalin kicks in, and you just do your best.
:02:24. > :02:30.I would say, really, it is tenders and skill, 90% good fortune, and
:02:30. > :02:36.somebody was smiling on us. -- 10% skill. Andy opted to fly the
:02:36. > :02:40.aircraft into a tree to soften the landing. His passengers also
:02:40. > :02:44.escaped serious injury. It is not yet known what caused the problem
:02:44. > :02:50.and he will submit a report to the Air Accident Investigation Branch.
:02:50. > :02:56.So, has any of this put him off flying? I have been flying since I
:02:56. > :03:00.was 16, and this is the first time I have written off and aircraft,
:03:00. > :03:05.but I walked away and there is the old adage, or any accident you walk
:03:05. > :03:09.away from is a good one. There will still be the scars and memories of
:03:09. > :03:15.this crash and the day that all three cheated death and survived to
:03:15. > :03:18.tell the tale. A man has told a jury that he saw
:03:18. > :03:21.his girlfriend hit a disabled friend around the head with a
:03:21. > :03:25.rounders bat and saying, "I'm going to finish him off". Jon Ellison was
:03:25. > :03:28.found dead at his flat in Brighton last April. David Sole and Denise
:03:28. > :03:31.Antonia, who had recently moved in with Mr Ellison, are both on trial
:03:32. > :03:39.for his murder. Our reporter Sean Killick is in Brighton for us
:03:39. > :03:41.tonight. Just remind us of the background of this case.
:03:41. > :03:47.Jon Ellison was an alcoholic, disabled and terminally ill. He
:03:47. > :03:54.lived in central Brighton. Lewes Crown Court has been told his flat
:03:54. > :03:57.was a drugs and drinking den with various people visiting there. Last
:03:57. > :04:00.April, friends found him dead on his bed, his head badly beaten.
:04:00. > :04:03.Paramedics pronounced him dead. In court, he was described as a
:04:03. > :04:07.harmless and caring man who let many friends use his home as an
:04:07. > :04:10.open house. David Sole, aged 33, has denied his murder. At the time,
:04:10. > :04:12.he was living at the flat with his girlfriend, 33-year-old Denise
:04:12. > :04:15.Antonia, who also denies murder. The pair were arrested in
:04:15. > :04:21.Winchester the following day. So how is Mr Ellison alleged to
:04:21. > :04:24.have died? In a police interview, Denise
:04:24. > :04:27.Antonia said Mr Ellison had intervened in a fight the couple
:04:27. > :04:35.were having, and her boyfriend had repeatedly hit Mr Ellison with a
:04:35. > :04:39.rounders bat. Today, David Sole said he had been stocked with the
:04:39. > :04:43.bat and blacked out. When he came round, he found he was holding the
:04:43. > :04:47.bat, and Mr Ellison was lying on the bed covered in blood, and his
:04:47. > :04:51.girlfriend were shouting, you have gone too far. But he said his
:04:51. > :04:56.girlfriend then took the bat and delivered a blow to Mr Ellison's
:04:56. > :05:00.head and said, there is no point leaving him here like that, I will
:05:00. > :05:04.finish him off. David Sole then said he took the bat, and told his
:05:04. > :05:11.girlfriend he was leaving the house and did not want her to follow him.
:05:11. > :05:14.The trial will continue tomorrow. Thank you very much.
:05:14. > :05:17.Parents at a Berkshire school have been told three teachers, including
:05:17. > :05:20.the head, will be absent for the foreseeable future. The Board of
:05:20. > :05:22.Governors at Willowbank Junior School in Woodley told parents and
:05:22. > :05:24.staff yesterday that headteacher Joe Moyster, his deputy Alan
:05:24. > :05:27.Ridgeway, and another teacher, Grant Close, would all be absent
:05:27. > :05:32.from the school. The reason is not clear, but Wokingham Borough
:05:32. > :05:35.Council says parents will be kept informed.
:05:35. > :05:40.Four years ago today, 77-year-old Georgina Edmonds was found stabbed
:05:40. > :05:44.and beaten to death at her cottage in Brambridge, near Eastleigh.
:05:44. > :05:47.Today, the man accused of her murder told a court he is not an
:05:47. > :05:50.aggressive person. Matthew Hamlen, 33, from Bishopstoke, denies murder.
:05:50. > :05:58.I am joined by our home affairs correspondent Alex Forsyth, who has
:05:58. > :06:02.been following this case. What did Matthew Hamlen say today?
:06:02. > :06:06.This morning was the third day he was in the witness box giving
:06:06. > :06:10.evidence in his defence. Yesterday the prosecution said that around
:06:10. > :06:13.the time of Georgina Edmonds' murder, Matthew Hamlen used to walk
:06:13. > :06:16.up and down the river towpath near her home to get rid of his
:06:16. > :06:21.aggression. Today he was asked about that and said, that is not
:06:21. > :06:25.the case. He went on to say that he is not an aggressive person at all.
:06:25. > :06:30.He was asked for any reason he might have been in the area near
:06:30. > :06:33.her home. He said he might have been in the pub or driving through.
:06:33. > :06:37.So he was asked what he was doing on that day?
:06:37. > :06:42.He has been repeatedly asked and repeatedly said he cannot remember
:06:42. > :06:46.exactly what he was doing on Monday four years ago but has been picked
:06:46. > :06:50.up on CCTV in and around Eastleigh town centre that evening. This is
:06:50. > :06:56.footage of him in Sainsbury's. He says he was buying cakes for his
:06:56. > :06:59.girlfriend who was away and to that that weekend. But because
:06:59. > :07:04.identification has been quite a central issue in this case, these
:07:04. > :07:08.are some of the first in it -- first images we have seen publicly
:07:08. > :07:12.of Matthew Hamlen. The prosecution says it shows him going shopping
:07:12. > :07:15.after he killed Georgina Edmonds, but Mr Hamlen, of course, denies
:07:15. > :07:19.murder. The case is due to continue tomorrow.
:07:19. > :07:22.Thank you. It is meant to be the way that we
:07:22. > :07:26.welcome the Olympic Games. In just 198 days, London 2012 will get
:07:26. > :07:29.underway. And on the day the Games begin, organisers want people in
:07:29. > :07:38.the South to help simultaneously ring every bell in the country at 8
:07:38. > :07:41.o'clock in the morning. But, as Ed Sherry reports, bells in some
:07:41. > :07:45.churches around the region will be staying silent.
:07:45. > :07:50.Weymouth and Portland is the home of Olympic sailing, but even here
:07:50. > :07:56.at 8am the bells will stay silent. We normally do not ring much before
:07:56. > :08:03.9am. The logistics of ringing for three minutes is not really very
:08:03. > :08:07.practical because most things take more than three minutes. Bell's
:08:07. > :08:17.only have one volume, and basically only one speed. This is what artist
:08:17. > :08:17.
:08:17. > :08:27.Martin Creed hopes that were at 197 will sound like on July 27th --
:08:27. > :08:28.
:08:29. > :08:35.1197. This work, in order to work, needs a lot of people to do it, it
:08:35. > :08:38.totally relies on people to make it happen. It is all part of the
:08:38. > :08:42.London Festival, a nationwide celebration of the arts that runs
:08:42. > :08:46.alongside the Olympic Games. Quite a lot of churches have signed up
:08:46. > :08:50.and over the next few months we hope churches that have any
:08:50. > :08:53.concerns will contact us and we can work through any issues they have,
:08:53. > :09:00.and make sure that they can all join in the fund, because it will
:09:00. > :09:07.be great fun. But the bells will be run at a 10th. A special mobile
:09:07. > :09:13.phone app is being developed. -- will be wrong at 8am. What I hope
:09:13. > :09:19.is that throughout the diocese, as many ringers as possible ring their
:09:19. > :09:23.bells during the course of that day for what they feel is appropriate.
:09:23. > :09:33.Some churches will ring for a shorter period of time, some
:09:33. > :09:33.
:09:33. > :09:36.probably for a longer period of time.
:09:36. > :09:39.Watch the birdie! That is what twitchers have been doing in a
:09:39. > :09:42.coastal Hampshire village. Hundreds of them have travelled many miles
:09:42. > :09:45.in the hope of seeing a rare visitor, a Spanish sparrow, which
:09:45. > :09:48.has moved into the gardens and hedgerows of Calshot. The sparrow
:09:48. > :09:53.has not been seen in Britain since the mid-90s, and its presence here
:09:53. > :09:59.is creating quite a flutter of excitement. Chris Coneybeer reports.
:09:59. > :10:05.It is a story of adventure, a long and dangerous journey ending in
:10:05. > :10:09.avian romance. The Spanish Barratt is now safely on British shores,
:10:10. > :10:15.and bird watchers for many miles have come to see him. As soon as he
:10:15. > :10:20.is spotted, they move in. We set off about 4 km from Leeds this
:10:20. > :10:25.morning. It is a good example of an adult male Spanish sparrow. It is
:10:25. > :10:29.really nice to see. Literally anything new for my list I will go
:10:29. > :10:34.and see. Straight away, we will charter planes, boats, I would do
:10:34. > :10:37.anything to go and see a bird, spend unlimited amounts of money.
:10:37. > :10:41.Local residents are slightly overwhelmed but mostly tolerant.
:10:41. > :10:46.actually think it is winning Nice, and the people I think are quite
:10:46. > :10:50.relaxed about it, people have not started going into other people's
:10:50. > :10:56.gardens without permission, and I believe this weekend we will open
:10:56. > :11:00.the village hall. The Spanish Barrow is from the Mediterranean,
:11:00. > :11:05.possibly Spain or Turkey or North Africa, and almost certainly caught
:11:05. > :11:10.a passing ship to get here. Since arriving, he has been mating,
:11:10. > :11:13.producing half English, half Spanish sparrows. This Barrow is
:11:13. > :11:18.living happily here with other sparrows, it has clearly bred with
:11:18. > :11:22.one of those, and there is plenty of food available, it is fed every
:11:22. > :11:26.day in gardens. Why would it want to go back to Turkey, where they
:11:26. > :11:30.shoot them? It is still early morning and already 100
:11:30. > :11:35.birdwatchers have come and gone. It is expected this weekend the number
:11:35. > :11:45.of human visitors will go to four figures. And they will be able to
:11:45. > :11:48.
:11:48. > :11:51.Opposition is growing towards a controversial gas drilling
:11:51. > :11:53.technique which has been linked to earthquakes, and it's feared could
:11:53. > :11:57.happen in parts of Sussex. Cuadrilla has been given permission
:11:57. > :12:00.for exploratory drilling at a site in Balcombe, but insists it has no
:12:00. > :12:02.plans to carry out any work at this time. Locals fear the impact it
:12:02. > :12:06.would have. They are holding a public meeting tonight.
:12:06. > :12:11.The food giant Nestle says it is going to move its UK headquarters
:12:11. > :12:14.from South London to West Sussex. The relocation of 840 members of
:12:14. > :12:21.staff from Nestle Towers in Croydon to a new site close to Gatwick
:12:21. > :12:23.Airport will be complete by the end of the year.
:12:23. > :12:26.Still to come in this evening's South Today:
:12:26. > :12:36.What does a record-breaking round- the-world sailor treat himself to
:12:36. > :12:36.
:12:36. > :12:40.when he gets home? I had a nectarine, that was
:12:40. > :12:48.unbelievable! Some fresh bread with just butter, that was the best meal
:12:48. > :12:51.A delegation from Dorset who are concerned about plans to axe the
:12:51. > :12:55.county's search and rescue helicopter say a meeting with David
:12:56. > :12:59.Cameron today went well. The Government plans to shut the
:12:59. > :13:01.service, which is based in Portland, as part of a strategy to station
:13:01. > :13:09.helicopters at regular intervals around the coastline. The
:13:09. > :13:12.delegation was led by South Dorset Conservative MP Richard Drax.
:13:13. > :13:19.The part that struck him most was the issue of statistical evidence
:13:19. > :13:23.that we have to show the number of incidents that occur off Paul and.
:13:23. > :13:27.The search and rescue helicopter was involved in over 200 in 2011,
:13:27. > :13:33.so what we have achieved is to get this issue, an important issue, to
:13:33. > :13:41.the very top of government. She is 160 feet tall, a century old,
:13:41. > :13:44.and was making a rare trip to Southampton today. This is the
:13:44. > :13:46.Norwegian Tall Ship Statsraad Lehmkul. Every year, she takes part
:13:46. > :13:49.in the Tall Ships Races organised by Gosport-based charity Sail
:13:49. > :13:56.Training International. It is trying to encourage more young
:13:56. > :14:00.people to experience sailing. Rachael Canter reports.
:14:00. > :14:04.Setting sail in this tall ship is enough to make anyone feel like
:14:05. > :14:12.royalty. But fortunately you do not have to be. Anybody can do this,
:14:12. > :14:15.this is not a rich boy it -- rich boys' and girls' game, it is for
:14:15. > :14:20.anybody. It gives people an opportunity to discover things
:14:20. > :14:28.inside themselves, learn how to work as part of a team and develop
:14:28. > :14:31.self-confidence, and to find out career really, what they have got.
:14:31. > :14:36.15-25-year-olds can apply for bursaries to take part in the tall
:14:36. > :14:40.Ships races this summer. Being in a part -- a group of racing ships is
:14:40. > :14:44.an amazing experience. Being on a ship you know has a good chance of
:14:44. > :14:49.winning the race is another good thing. You are safe, she is big,
:14:49. > :14:54.fast, so you sailed you are always in a good situation. Last year,
:14:54. > :15:01.7,000 young people entered. Many had never sailed before. When you
:15:01. > :15:11.are at sea and just see blue around you everywhere, it is a weird
:15:11. > :15:13.
:15:13. > :15:15.freedom feeling. I feel at home. The tall Ships races, brilliant for
:15:15. > :15:18.the youngsters. Steven Speilberg's new blockbuster
:15:18. > :15:23.film War Horse has been grabbing the headlines this week. It tells
:15:23. > :15:26.the fictional story of Joey, a horse that went to war in 1914.
:15:26. > :15:29.There has been huge interest in the film, which gives a fresh insight
:15:29. > :15:34.into the role of horses in the conflict. Over a million horses
:15:34. > :15:37.went to war, and just a few survived. Tonight we have the story
:15:37. > :15:40.of the bay thoroughbred from the Isle of Wight who survived the
:15:40. > :15:50.battles at the Somme and Passchendaele and returned home a
:15:50. > :16:00.
:16:00. > :16:08.It was here, on the Isle of Wight, that Jack and his force formed a
:16:08. > :16:12.partnership that was to last 33 years. -- Jack and his horse. Both
:16:12. > :16:17.the horse and the rider survived the horrors and slaughter of the
:16:17. > :16:22.First World War. By the timepiece came, the bay thoroughbred called
:16:22. > :16:28.Warrior had earned his place in history. The soldiers called him
:16:28. > :16:33.simply the horse the Germans could not kill. On a cold, grey morning
:16:33. > :16:39.on the Western Front in 1918, Warrior and General Jack were
:16:39. > :16:43.immortalised in this painting by one of the country's finest artists.
:16:43. > :16:48.The survival of Warrior and his rider permits the carnage of the
:16:48. > :16:53.Western Front was indeed a miracle. Around one million horses were sent
:16:54. > :16:58.to the western front by the British, only one in 10 came home. How big
:16:58. > :17:04.would Warrior have been? He was a little bit smaller than this.
:17:04. > :17:08.Jack's grandson is a writer, broadcaster and former jockey.
:17:08. > :17:11.would say he is one of the bravest horses that ever lived, and
:17:11. > :17:16.certainly the luckiest. I counted 11 different occasions when he
:17:16. > :17:24.should have been killed. He has all the published a book that Jaque
:17:24. > :17:28.wrote about his famous horse. A soldier, Cabinet minister and
:17:28. > :17:36.friend of Winston Churchill, Jack was also a member of the lifeboat
:17:36. > :17:40.crew on the Isle of Wight, where his family had a large estate.
:17:40. > :17:44.life boat was launched by the family of General Sealey... He has
:17:44. > :17:50.been with the cruiser over 30 years and received a peerage in the
:17:50. > :17:55.King's birthday honours. Warrior was born on the Isle of Wight in
:17:55. > :18:00.1908, and Jack first rode him here near the village of Brook a few
:18:00. > :18:06.years later. The pleasant days they spend here were in stark contrast
:18:06. > :18:14.to what was to come. Horses had a terrible time, a terrible time.
:18:14. > :18:19.This is four years, non-stop shelling, things like that. Tens of
:18:19. > :18:23.thousands of people a day were killed, and ditto the horses.
:18:23. > :18:29.Warrior was at some of the biggest and deadliest battles of the
:18:29. > :18:34.conflict, including the Somme and Passchendaele. The with Jack in the
:18:34. > :18:44.saddle, he took part in a crucial cavalry charge that checked the
:18:44. > :18:44.
:18:45. > :18:53.German advance. He was a general, and he led the troupe. That is
:18:53. > :18:57.meant to be in the firm, but he went with Warrior. After the war,
:18:57. > :19:01.he returned home with Warrior to the Isle of Wight, where they
:19:01. > :19:06.enjoyed many years together, including visits from royalty.
:19:06. > :19:11.had those adventures together and then survived, and then lived a
:19:11. > :19:20.happy life in the post war period and grow old together, so I think
:19:20. > :19:23.they knew each other from cradle to grave. The end for Warrior came in
:19:23. > :19:28.1941 when food shortages and the Second World War led to the horse
:19:28. > :19:35.being put down just a few weeks short of his 37th birthday. There
:19:35. > :19:42.had been mutterings about the amount of corn he was eating. Jack
:19:42. > :19:51.died in 1937 -- 1967. Warrior will forever be remembered as the Isle
:19:51. > :19:54.of Wight's real War Horse. An extraordinary tale, isn't it?
:19:54. > :20:00.Tomorrow we will tell you about the grey charger that returned to
:20:00. > :20:04.become a Southampton piece Hall -- police force, also called a warrior.
:20:04. > :20:09.Talking about epic stories, Chris is here with one in the sport.
:20:09. > :20:12.Brian Thompson, what a man? He woke up this morning to the
:20:12. > :20:17.Eiffel Tower in Paris after completing his record-breaking
:20:17. > :20:22.round-the-world voyage, and two and was later he was looking at me!
:20:22. > :20:28.From duty to the Beast, some would say. I would put you above the
:20:28. > :20:31.Eiffel Tower! It has been a great few days for

:20:36. > :20:39.arrived back home today. Despite his achievements, he was taking it
:20:39. > :20:44.all in his stride. The sun-kissed serenity of
:20:44. > :20:48.Southampton, a world away from the scenes that greeted Brian Thompson
:20:48. > :20:52.in France. Their trophy for it was not only the fastest
:20:52. > :20:57.circumnavigation of the globe, but made Brian the first British sailor
:20:57. > :21:00.to go around the world four time. It has not sunk in yet. People have
:21:00. > :21:06.been saying how big a story it has been, how many people have followed
:21:06. > :21:11.it, but you do not realise when you are on the boat. Brian was the only
:21:11. > :21:21.British member of the mainly French crews. He knocked an impressive
:21:21. > :21:28.three days off the record, thanks in part to his experts steering.

:21:33. > :21:37.hitting anything at that speed could mean the record is over.
:21:38. > :21:42.After 45 days at sea, a hearty meal issue will be the top of the to-do
:21:42. > :21:48.list? I had a nectarine, that was unbelievable. Some fresh bread with
:21:48. > :21:52.just butter, that was the best meal I have ever had. Approaching his
:21:52. > :21:57.50th birthday, he could be forgiven for winding down but is now aiming
:21:57. > :22:01.for the solo race in November. have got a boat lined up, a team
:22:01. > :22:07.lined up, I just need to get the company, the brand, the sponsor
:22:07. > :22:14.that wants to come in and support me for that and try to win that
:22:14. > :22:19.race, or at least get on the podium. The first tilt for Brian would be a
:22:19. > :22:23.trip into the unknown. With views like this, who could blame him?
:22:23. > :22:31.A great achievement. But I would have chosen a Sunday roast over a
:22:31. > :22:33.nectarine! London Irish's Delon Armitage was
:22:33. > :22:36.today left out of England's squad for the forthcoming Six Nations
:22:36. > :22:38.competition. Instead, the full-back was named in the second-string
:22:38. > :22:41.England Saxons party. Armitage was omitted from new England coach
:22:41. > :22:44.Stuart Lancaster's first squad, but there was a place for his London
:22:44. > :22:46.Irish team-mate Alex Corbissiero at prop, while Jonathan Joseph joins
:22:46. > :22:48.Armitage in the Saxons. England begin their Six Nations campaign in

:22:51. > :22:54.the Japanese international striker Tadanari Lee moved closer today,
:22:54. > :22:56.after the player was granted a work permit on appeal. Saints officials
:22:56. > :23:00.attended FA headquarters in London today, and were successful in
:23:00. > :23:03.overturning the original decision not to hand Lee a permit. The J-
:23:03. > :23:10.League star will now return to England to finalise his move to the
:23:10. > :23:12.Championship leaders. Last night we told you of
:23:12. > :23:15.Bournemouth's interest in signing Crawley's top scorer Matt Tubbs.
:23:15. > :23:18.The Cherries had two bids rejected by the League Two side. And it
:23:18. > :23:21.looks like the interest will end there. Cherries' chairman Eddie
:23:21. > :23:25.Mitchell said today that they will not be going back to Crawley with a
:23:25. > :23:27.third offer for Tubbs, who has scored 17 goals for the Sussex side.
:23:27. > :23:29.Mitchell added that signing a striker does remain a priority for
:23:29. > :23:32.Bournemouth. Sussex's cricketers got off to a
:23:32. > :23:34.winning start in the Caribbean Twenty20 competition in Antigua.

:23:47. > :23:51.skittled for just 91. Left-armer Naved Arif was the pick of the
:23:51. > :23:54.bowlers with 3 for 12. Next up for Sussex is a game against Jamaica
:23:55. > :23:58.tomorrow. South African batsman Neil McKenzie
:23:58. > :24:01.has signed a deal to return to Hampshire for the second half of
:24:01. > :24:05.the 2012 season. He will arrive for the T20 in mid-June, and then stay
:24:05. > :24:08.on to play in all competitions for the rest of the summer. The 36-
:24:08. > :24:11.year-old has spent the last two full seasons at the Rose Bowl. Last
:24:11. > :24:21.summer he was part of a county record partnership of 523 with
:24:21. > :24:31.Michael Carberry. It will be a rebuilding year for
:24:31. > :24:35.
:24:35. > :24:41.Hampshire, this one. I don't know why they are not stop
:24:41. > :24:49.playing it here. It will be 20 degrees higher. You could still
:24:49. > :24:55.play cricket here. You just said you do not have your scarf out.
:24:55. > :25:05.Have you got one of those jumpers? No, but they are popular because of

:25:13. > :25:16.And Linda and Stuart Welton took this picture of the sun lighting up
:25:16. > :25:22.the cliffs at Lulworth Cove with Weymouth and Portland in the
:25:22. > :25:25.distance. Very mild temperatures at the
:25:25. > :25:29.moment and we hold on to mild conditions for some tonight but it
:25:29. > :25:34.turns cooler by the end of the week. There will be some sunny spells,
:25:34. > :25:38.though, but the nights will be frosty. Frost on the ground and air
:25:38. > :25:42.frost as well. Breezy tonight, staying mainly dry, the outside
:25:42. > :25:46.chance of some drizzle, but some clear spells initially and the
:25:46. > :25:56.countryside may be -- may be in sheltered spots, we could have a
:25:56. > :26:01.A relatively mild start to the day tomorrow, we hold on to the cloud
:26:01. > :26:04.cover. It will be limited brightness here and there, the
:26:04. > :26:13.weather front sinking southwards across the country, light rain and
:26:13. > :26:17.drizzle a possibility. The winds will be fairly light. Once the
:26:17. > :26:26.cloud sinks southwards, the skies will clear September just take a
:26:26. > :26:31.plunge. -- so temperatures take a plunge. Mist and fog could be a
:26:31. > :26:35.possibility first thing on Friday. It is an improving picture, sunny
:26:35. > :26:39.conditions during the day on Friday thanks to high pressure. The air is
:26:39. > :26:43.coming from the Arctic so it will be a chilly feel, but winds will be
:26:43. > :26:47.like so in the sunshine it will feel fairly pleasant. A repeat
:26:47. > :26:54.performance on Saturday, possibly more cloud than on Friday, but this
:26:54. > :27:01.weather front stairs and they, even on Sunday. Slightly more cloud on
:27:01. > :27:05.Sunday. But Saturday and Sunday start on a chilly note. A lot of
:27:05. > :27:08.cloud tomorrow, some breaks in the cloud for the sunshine. It is the
:27:08. > :27:12.weather front coming southwards, light rain and drizzle a
:27:12. > :27:17.possibility. A cold, frosty start on Friday, temperatures will
:27:17. > :27:24.struggle to rise, winds Fen in night, coming from the knot. Frosty
:27:24. > :27:30.on Saturday and Sunday, but fairly settled -- coming from the north.
