:00:26. > :00:31.In tonight's programme: Summoned to work and told they're sacked — 180
:00:31. > :00:33.people lose their jobs at Thomson Local Directory.
:00:33. > :00:36.Are families being kept apart? What effect recent immigration laws are
:00:36. > :00:39.having on those working here. Southampton's latest international
:00:39. > :00:42.makes up for lost time with his first touch of the ball.
:00:42. > :00:44.And we find out how this scientific glass—maker's latest design has been
:00:44. > :00:48.conceived. Losing your job is never easy but
:00:48. > :00:54.for 180 people at the Thomson Local Directory company, redundancy has
:00:54. > :00:57.been particularly harrowing. Staff were summoned to the Farnborough
:00:57. > :01:00.headquarters to be told the company was in administration. It's since
:01:00. > :01:04.found a buyer, saving the majority of jobs. But 180 staff were sacked
:01:04. > :01:08.on the spot and those with company cars were told to hand over their
:01:08. > :01:14.vehicles and use public transport to get home. Ben Moore reports from
:01:14. > :01:21.Farnborough. From blue hook to balancing the
:01:21. > :01:24.book, the reason that Thomson Local Directory has gone into
:01:24. > :01:27.administration is not the popularity of its directory but rather that the
:01:27. > :01:33.parent firm has gone bankrupt in Italy. But by yesterday evening, a
:01:33. > :01:40.buyer had been found — Corporate Media Partners. The firm says 340
:01:40. > :01:48.jobs, 65 descent of the workforce, have been saved. But 180 jobs are to
:01:48. > :01:53.go, mainly sales records. Obviously, people are still nervous. None of
:01:54. > :01:58.the people we let go yesterday were let go because of performance. It
:01:58. > :02:03.was purely the financials of the company and the purchaser deciding
:02:03. > :02:06.which divisions to take. Thomson Local Directory staff have been told
:02:06. > :02:09.not to talk to the media at just over the road is this pub and this
:02:09. > :02:14.is where many of the staff gathered yesterday. There are reports that
:02:15. > :02:18.emotions are running high and we've been told that staff were divided
:02:18. > :02:22.into two groups, one going to the second floor, the other to the
:02:22. > :02:26.fourth. Staff on the second floor were told they no longer had a job
:02:26. > :02:33.and also we have been told that some staff drove here in company cars,
:02:33. > :02:38.only to be told they had to hand them over. With staff not being any
:02:38. > :02:42.longer part of Thomson Local Directory, the cars were no longer
:02:42. > :02:49.insured. It's as simple as that. We plan to reimburse staff. Staff went
:02:49. > :02:53.stranded. The message from the company is that it has survived and
:02:53. > :02:57.is moving on. It says it will retain a strong online presence and the
:02:57. > :03:00.blue directory will continue to be printed.
:03:00. > :03:04.It's been a long wait, probably a few sleepless nights, but today tens
:03:04. > :03:08.of thousands of students got their A level results. For those going on to
:03:08. > :03:10.university, their grades will have either confirmed long—standing
:03:10. > :03:14.arrangements or prompted a bit of a scramble to come up with a plan B.
:03:15. > :03:18.The issue of tuition fees still looms large — but colleges are also
:03:18. > :03:27.doing more to financially tempt students who get the best grades.
:03:27. > :03:31.Dani Sinha reports. Like most students picking up their
:03:31. > :03:37.A—level results, it was an anxious time for paper. More so for her
:03:37. > :03:42.because she was one of the arts students whose unmarked coursework
:03:42. > :03:44.was destroyed in a fire at a school in Dorset at Christmas. Teachers
:03:44. > :03:54.gave her predicted grades to compensate. Good news for paper, who
:03:54. > :03:57.got higher grades than she needed to do an industrial design course at
:03:57. > :04:01.Loughborough University. But like a lot of students we talked to, they
:04:01. > :04:07.are willing to pay the higher tuition fees of £9,000 if it needs
:04:07. > :04:11.going to a better university. I just think I'm going to be in so much
:04:11. > :04:16.debt anyway, I might as well go for it. I know it's an awful lot but I'm
:04:16. > :04:25.just not thinking about it. I do think it's worth it in the end if I
:04:25. > :04:33.get a good education. I was pretty dead Seas and deeps and I have come
:04:33. > :04:40.out with an A. I can go to uni and get a £2000 scholarship. And that's
:04:40. > :04:43.just it — those students who did better than expected may be offered
:04:43. > :04:47.the chance to change their scores or get a scholarship. It's known as the
:04:47. > :04:51.adjustment rosettes and is one of two systems in place to help
:04:51. > :05:00.students. Universities can now take as many students as they want with
:05:00. > :05:04.grades of AAB or above. Southampton, Surrey and Sussex
:05:04. > :05:08.universities are now offering scholarships of up to £3000 to
:05:08. > :05:13.attract these are students. With all their clearance places filled,
:05:13. > :05:17.Southampton University have set up a call centres are trying to woo the
:05:17. > :05:22.brightest students. We will lose some students to adjustment and gain
:05:22. > :05:26.some two adjustment. We are here to attract the best possible students.
:05:27. > :05:32.The traditional clearing system still exists, however, for students
:05:32. > :05:37.who did not do as well as expected. Bournemouth had up to 150 vacancies
:05:37. > :05:42.to fill. Solent University set up a clearance call centre last night.
:05:43. > :05:46.They received two calls at midnight as some students started to receive
:05:46. > :05:53.results via the internet. By 7am, they had dealt with many enquiries.
:05:53. > :05:56.What is happening today is hundreds of thousands of students getting a
:05:57. > :06:01.guaranteed place at university. In fact it looks as if we're going to
:06:01. > :06:04.achieve more students getting their first choice university—based than
:06:04. > :06:09.ever before and that's great news for them. For some, life after
:06:09. > :06:12.A—levels will mean leaving the academic world and joining an
:06:12. > :06:15.apprenticeship scheme. Students have more choice and
:06:15. > :06:18.therefore more decisions to make than ever before.
:06:19. > :06:23.Well, from September, some students in the South will have the option of
:06:23. > :06:25.choosing to pursue A levels at one of the new University Technical
:06:25. > :06:29.Colleges. These are schools for 14—to—18—year—olds with a technical
:06:29. > :06:32.focus. Wiltshire's new college was due to open in Salisbury next year
:06:32. > :06:36.in what's currently the main police station. But the opening's been
:06:36. > :06:45.postponed until 2015 because the police say they need more time to
:06:45. > :06:49.relocate. Nikki Mitchell has more. The police were due to move out of
:06:49. > :06:55.this building in November but that would have not taken prisoners ——
:06:55. > :07:02.meant taking prisoners usually locked up here 18 miles away for up
:07:02. > :07:05.to 18 months. We would have had some teams based at the County premises
:07:05. > :07:10.and we would have had to use the custody nemesis elsewhere. We could
:07:10. > :07:16.have made that work but I couldn't guarantee the same level of service
:07:16. > :07:20.to the public. The 12 month delay does mean that Salisbury will get
:07:20. > :07:23.its own purpose—built operational police station and custody suite in
:07:23. > :07:28.the city centre but the new classrooms, workshops and science
:07:28. > :07:35.labs to be created inside this grade two listed building now want to be
:07:35. > :07:37.finished until 2015. We were surprised and disappointed,
:07:37. > :07:41.particularly on behalf of the students because a lot of students
:07:41. > :07:45.had expressed an interest and we had to let them know that the project
:07:45. > :07:50.was going to be delayed. We fully understand the position the Chief
:07:50. > :07:52.Constable finds himself in. I'm disappointed but I understand and
:07:52. > :07:57.accept the judgement of the Chief Constable. The UTC will happen in
:07:57. > :08:02.Salisbury in 2015 and it will be a great asset to the city and the
:08:02. > :08:06.surrounding region. In Berkshire, Reading's new University Technical
:08:06. > :08:11.Colleges is soon to be finished and will open next month. It's backed by
:08:11. > :08:14.big employers like Microsoft, whose struggle to find recruits with the
:08:14. > :08:21.right hi—tech computer and engineering skills. In South
:08:21. > :08:23.Wiltshire, it's the army and employers from the local defence and
:08:24. > :08:29.scientific sector who are going to have to wait a bit longer for the
:08:29. > :08:30.UTC they're backing in hopes of addressing the skills shortage here
:08:30. > :08:34.to open. Police are questioning two brothers
:08:34. > :08:37.in connection with the murder of a man in his 50s who was stabbed to
:08:37. > :08:41.death in Guildford. The brothers, aged 22 and 14, walked in to a
:08:41. > :08:45.police station last night following the discovery of the man's body at a
:08:45. > :08:48.house in the Bellfields area of the town. He's not yet been identified.
:08:48. > :08:51.A husband says he's shattered and bewildered at the closure of a
:08:51. > :08:55.mental health facility which cares for his wife. Brian Payne's wife is
:08:55. > :08:59.being cared for at Regnum Cottages in Chichester. He first learnt about
:08:59. > :09:03.NHS plans to close the unit in the local paper. Mark Sanders reports.
:09:03. > :09:08.Cheryl Payne has schizophrenia and the place where she is being cared
:09:08. > :09:12.for is closing. Her husband is anxious about what will happen to
:09:12. > :09:16.her. He learned about plans to shut the facility at Regnum Cottages in
:09:16. > :09:23.Chichester after seeing the news in the local paper. Bewildered is one
:09:23. > :09:29.thing. Shattered. It came so suddenly. I read it in the paper
:09:29. > :09:38.before I was notified. I can't afford for it to make me ill. It's
:09:38. > :09:43.very distressing. Regnum Cottages RL is of a new, having opened at the
:09:43. > :09:54.end of the 1990s. They were built on the grounds of the old hospital. ——
:09:54. > :09:57.Regnum Cottages are relatively new. The Sussex partnership NHS
:09:57. > :10:26.foundation trust gave us a statement about why the cottages are closing.
:10:26. > :10:32.As for how Brian Payne learned about the closure plans in the paper, the
:10:32. > :10:37.trust says it would have been inappropriate to begin those
:10:37. > :10:40.discussions without the approval of the West Sussex health and social
:10:41. > :10:44.care select committee. Ryan Payne loves his garden but it's no
:10:44. > :11:07.distraction from his worries about where his wife will end up. ——
:11:07. > :11:13.Brian. Still to come in this evening's
:11:13. > :11:21.South Today: Tony Husband has been enjoying a game of cricket. The
:11:21. > :11:25.Ashes with a difference. England against Australia over 70s. The
:11:25. > :11:30.first match in a three—game series. I'll tell you who came out on top in
:11:30. > :11:33.a moment. The Bournemouth group of Surfers
:11:33. > :11:36.Against Sewage are meeting now with the developers of proposed offshore
:11:36. > :11:39.wind farm at Navitus Bay. The proposed wind farm would have more
:11:40. > :11:42.than 200 turbines some 12 miles off Bournemouth's shoreline. The surfers
:11:42. > :11:44.want to discuss how that could affect sea conditions including the
:11:44. > :11:47.swell. Figures out today reveal there's
:11:47. > :11:50.been a big jump in the number of Romanians and Bulgarians working in
:11:50. > :11:53.the UK. Many nationalities still want to come here and the
:11:53. > :11:57.Government's focus is on trying to control the numbers arriving from
:11:57. > :12:00.outside the EU. A year ago it introduced new rules so workers can
:12:00. > :12:04.only bring a husband or wife into the UK if they earn more than
:12:04. > :12:07.£18,000. Only one other major Western country has a higher limit
:12:07. > :12:08.and campaigners say it's unfairly keeping families apart. James Ingham
:12:08. > :12:12.reports. After a decade in the UK, Inodeen
:12:12. > :12:16.Naizai has the same rights as every other Briton. But his low pay is
:12:16. > :12:18.stopping him living with his wife, who he married in Pakistan.
:12:18. > :12:29.Immigration rule changes mean he's unable to sponsor her visa. Is too
:12:29. > :12:33.much for my wife, for me. Life is no good for me and my wife. Anyone in
:12:33. > :12:36.this country wishing to be joined by their husband or wife from outside
:12:36. > :12:40.the EU must prove they earn £18,600 a year — more if they have children.
:12:40. > :12:49.The Government says that ensures couples won't become reliant on the
:12:49. > :12:51.taxpayer for financial support. The community is very worried. Leaders
:12:51. > :12:54.from communities across Southampton — representing Sikhs, Muslims and
:12:54. > :13:03.Christians — are campaigning to get that threshold reduced. It's causing
:13:03. > :13:08.the family is anxiety, depression. They're getting mentally disturbed,
:13:08. > :13:14.it's causing family arguments, ripping them apart, keeping them
:13:14. > :13:18.away from loved ones. The income threshold has been criticised by a
:13:18. > :13:23.group of MPs looking at migration. A High Court judge has also described
:13:23. > :13:26.them as onerous and unjustified. The government says it will review the
:13:26. > :13:29.impact of the rules are having and in the meantime has put all
:13:29. > :13:32.applications that don't meet the minimum requirement on hold while it
:13:32. > :13:35.appeals against the court ruling. The threshold is well above the
:13:35. > :13:38.minimum wage of around £13,000 a year. Nearly half of all working
:13:38. > :13:42.people would be unable to sponsor a partner based on their earnings.
:13:42. > :13:51.Opposition politicians agree with the need to limit immigration, but
:13:51. > :13:54.question the figure chosen. Obviously, the Conservatives have
:13:54. > :14:01.picked out a figure so that poor people can't reach it. What we say
:14:01. > :14:03.is, as long as you work, as long as you contribute, no figure really
:14:03. > :14:07.matters, as long as you are contributing to the country and not
:14:07. > :14:10.expecting the country to look after you. Inodeen talks regularly to his
:14:10. > :14:23.wife. If the rules remain the same, this is the only contact he'll have
:14:23. > :14:27.with her here. On to sport and Tony tends to pick
:14:27. > :14:31.his moments to get out of the TV studio very carefully. Two reasons
:14:31. > :14:34.tonight — particularly good. One is the weather and the other is to
:14:34. > :14:41.watch his favourite pastime, the cricket. I can see the sun is
:14:41. > :14:45.beaming down on you! Yes, it's glorious. We are at one of
:14:45. > :14:50.the most picturesque grounds in Hampshire. It has hosted the first
:14:50. > :14:55.test match between England and Australia. I'll have a bit more
:14:55. > :15:05.about that. But you mentioned that I've got a beaming smile and the sun
:15:05. > :15:10.is beaming down. Now, they say good things come to
:15:10. > :15:14.those who wait. Southampton striker Rickie Lambert waited a long time
:15:14. > :15:17.for his England debut. But he made the most of his big chance last
:15:17. > :15:21.night. It took the 31—year—old just two minutes and 47 seconds to score
:15:21. > :15:23.on his debut. His goal proved to be the winner in England's 3—2 defeat
:15:23. > :15:27.of Scotland. King of the back pages — and the
:15:27. > :15:29.headline writers' darling. Rickie Lambert's achievement last night
:15:30. > :15:32.spread delight around the world of football. It also sparked an
:15:32. > :15:35.explosion of ecstatic tweets in Twitter feeds across the South. The
:15:35. > :15:40.former beetroot factory worker's call—up at 31 had come late — but an
:15:40. > :15:43.hour into the match he came off the bench to replace fellow Scouser
:15:43. > :15:46.Wayne Rooney. But how's this for making up for lost time, after just
:15:46. > :15:48.under three minutes on the Wembley pitch?
:15:48. > :15:52.Lambert's header proved to be the decisive moment in the game and —
:15:52. > :16:00.but for a bobble off the turf and the width of a post — he very nearly
:16:00. > :16:13.bagged another. He could have scored three! I had the post. A little nick
:16:13. > :16:16.took it off my foot a little bit but I'm thankful to have scored a goal.
:16:16. > :16:22.For the fans at one Southampton pub today, the Lambert glow showed no
:16:22. > :16:27.sign of fading. It went absolutely mad in here. When he hit the post
:16:27. > :16:33.later, it went mad again. It was all about Lambert last night, not
:16:33. > :16:38.England. When Lambert came on, he was there for three minutes, scored
:16:38. > :16:44.a brilliant goal. Excellent game. Back training with Saints today,
:16:44. > :16:48.Lambert's smile said it all! How are you feeling? I'm all right,
:16:48. > :16:51.OK. Lambert was not doing interviews
:16:51. > :16:56.today but one of his Southampton team mates was more forthcoming.
:16:56. > :17:02.Everyone was very happy for him, everyone was buzzing. We said
:17:02. > :17:07.congratulations to him but it wasn't really a surprise for us because we
:17:07. > :17:09.knew that if he played more than 30 minutes, he would score goals. Most
:17:09. > :17:13.pundits thought Lambert's selection for England was as a stopgap. But
:17:13. > :17:16.with his appetite for goal, who knows? At 31, maybe international
:17:16. > :17:30.life is just beginning for St Rickie. Fantastic. A full
:17:30. > :17:33.Southampton Premier League preview is coming up tomorrow.
:17:33. > :17:37.A Hampshire golfer is into the last 16 of the US Amateur championship
:17:37. > :17:40.after two wins in the match play part of the competition. Neil
:17:40. > :17:42.Raymond has just gone onto the course in his match against
:17:42. > :17:45.Australia's Nathan Holman. You may remember Neil, who plays at
:17:45. > :17:49.Corhampton Golf Club, topped the stroke play leaderboard at the event
:17:49. > :17:57.at Brookline. He is going very well indeed. That is one England—is truly
:17:57. > :18:01.a battle. How about another one? It's the first test match of a
:18:01. > :18:05.three—year match series in the England and Australia over 70s. Is
:18:05. > :18:10.truly were bowled out short time ago. This is the first of a three
:18:10. > :18:17.match series. —— Australia were bowled out. Let's talk to the two
:18:17. > :18:23.captains. Hugh Miller and Gordon Ives. Tell us about these matches,
:18:23. > :18:33.how they've come about. Senior figures involved over the years
:18:33. > :18:37.thought it was a logical move that when the Australians were coming
:18:37. > :18:43.over and invited us to pay test cricket we would take them up on the
:18:43. > :18:48.challenge. —— played test cricket. Gordon, great to have you over
:18:48. > :18:53.here. A big travelling contingent? There's 17 in the squad, plus
:18:53. > :18:59.ladies. We thoroughly enjoyed the hospitality. It's been so fantastic
:18:59. > :19:02.every game we've played. A good one today but unfortunately, one to
:19:02. > :19:07.England and zero to us at the moment but it's going to change in the
:19:07. > :19:11.test, hopefully. Two more test matches to go. We'll turn the
:19:11. > :19:17.tables. We lost the toss. I was going to bat today but it was fair
:19:17. > :19:24.enough. It's a good batting wicket. They would be expecting 250 to get
:19:24. > :19:29.out today. They only got 160 so we're in there for sure! It's been
:19:29. > :19:34.an English summer so far for the Ashes! I have to stop you because we
:19:34. > :19:38.could go on all night. We'll go to the bar in a second. England won the
:19:39. > :19:45.first one, they go to Crawley for the second. I harbour hopes that
:19:45. > :19:50.maybe one day I will play cricket for my country still!
:19:50. > :19:53.There is a future for you but the immediate future is behind you!
:19:53. > :19:57.Do you remember chemistry lessons in school? Getting to grips with Bunsen
:19:57. > :20:01.burners, test tubes and a pipette! In full scale laboratories there's a
:20:01. > :20:04.lot of glass equipment and some of it is very specialised. Professor
:20:04. > :20:07.David Phillips had a unique piece of glassware he used in chemistry
:20:07. > :20:11.demonstrations and when it broke, he turned to Southampton University for
:20:11. > :20:15.help. He joined me earlier on the sofa and the first thing was to
:20:15. > :20:24.reveal what was so special about his glass item. So, this is the item, in
:20:24. > :20:31.fact, which is the unusual piece of glassware. It's a baby!It is and if
:20:31. > :20:37.you look carefully, you can see it is a male baby. This is Mike. It's
:20:37. > :20:43.not the first one you've had, because your accident prone, I
:20:43. > :20:48.understand. I had one for many years, which was made in
:20:48. > :20:53.Southampton, also, and he went with me to a big lecture in Berlin just
:20:53. > :21:00.before Christmas and, alas, did not make it. So we had a funeral in
:21:00. > :21:04.Berlin. Let's bring in the glass—blower. Have you ever been
:21:04. > :21:12.asked to make anything as strange as this? Know, without doubt.It's all
:21:12. > :21:18.hand—blown, isn't it? Is that tricky? Yes. We make each part
:21:18. > :21:23.separately so we made the arms, the legs, the head all separately and
:21:23. > :21:32.then put together. It's putting it all together that is the tricky bit.
:21:33. > :21:36.David, you use it for educating, helping people to understand
:21:36. > :21:41.science, but have you got to have something like that to make this
:21:41. > :21:44.more educating and interesting? You don't have to bid if you can engage
:21:44. > :21:49.your audience with seeing something unusual, it helps. But it does a
:21:49. > :21:55.real experiments so there is some real science here. And, of course,
:21:55. > :22:00.they find this very attractive. The adults as well as the children, I
:22:00. > :22:07.assume? Well, we're all children at heart. The serious side about how
:22:08. > :22:12.you use this is about jaundice in babies, isn't it? Yes, about ten
:22:12. > :22:16.percentage babies are born with jaundice and it really needs to be
:22:16. > :22:20.treated. It was discovered by accident in the mid—1950s that if
:22:20. > :22:25.you use blue light on a baby, it will convert the yellow substance,
:22:25. > :22:30.which is a breakdown product of red blood cells, into a water—soluble
:22:30. > :22:34.form so you can get rid of it in the way that you and I would recognise.
:22:34. > :22:42.How does that manifest itself in your glass baby? This is just a
:22:42. > :22:46.separating phenomenon. He might object to it being described as
:22:46. > :22:50.that. In the legs, I have a fat solution of the authentic material
:22:50. > :22:58.that is the cause of jaundice in newborn babies. Above I have some
:22:58. > :23:02.water. You can see that it will not go in the water. If you radiate this
:23:02. > :23:08.with blue light or ultraviolet light or both, this converts into a form
:23:08. > :23:13.which will dissolve in water. So I can show you that if you like. I
:23:13. > :23:23.have to take his dummy out. Here is the light. I have to put it there.
:23:24. > :23:28.It takes about two minutes so we need to radiate for about that
:23:28. > :23:33.length of time. So we're going to let that radiate and come back to it
:23:33. > :23:39.in a second. So, you've been doing that for a couple of minutes. That
:23:39. > :23:43.should be long enough, I hope. So now what I have to do is see if the
:23:43. > :23:50.yellow colour will go into the water. I have to mix it. Which you
:23:50. > :23:55.wouldn't do with a normal baby, of course! Don't do this at home! With
:23:55. > :24:01.any luck, it has been long enough that some, if not all, of the yellow
:24:01. > :24:06.colour has gone into the top layer. It has now gone into the water
:24:06. > :24:12.layer, so now little Mike can do exactly what nature intended and get
:24:12. > :24:16.rid of it. That is incredible and it really does show exactly what will
:24:16. > :24:22.happen. I suppose the worrying thing now is, as far as you're concerned,
:24:22. > :24:32.Lee, you can make the baby but what if he wants an adult? I would kindly
:24:32. > :24:41.invite him to go somewhere else! It's fabulous to meet you. Professor
:24:41. > :24:48.David Phillips and Lee Mulholland, thank you. It's fascinating.
:24:48. > :24:57.I loved Lee's face. It was a picture! We go onto the weather now.
:24:57. > :24:59.Sarah is here. Gorgeous again. Yes, we have a mixed bag. Many of us
:24:59. > :25:03.stayed dry. A beautiful butterfly spotted by
:25:03. > :25:06.Beryl Matthews today at Wakehurst Place Gardens, near Ardingly.
:25:06. > :25:09.An action shot of a Canada goose coming into land. Taken by Dan Smith
:25:09. > :25:13.in Midhurst. And a moody feel to this one — taken
:25:13. > :25:19.at the top of the South Downs by Katarina Hutchings.
:25:19. > :25:24.We have had some showers and there are still a few in the mix for this
:25:24. > :25:27.evening. It will fade away, so we'll see dry conditions for a time before
:25:27. > :25:33.we see more wet weather into the early hours. The showers feed
:25:33. > :25:37.through the M4 corridor, easing away later, and then we'll see the cloud
:25:37. > :25:43.building in from the West during the early hours with patchy outbreaks of
:25:43. > :25:48.rain and perhaps some heavy bursts. We start tomorrow with the grey,
:25:48. > :25:58.damp feel and perhaps one or two more heavy bursts in the mix. In the
:25:58. > :26:04.sunshine, feeling pleasant, with highs of 23, but still some showers
:26:04. > :26:07.later in the day. Tomorrow evening, the rain eventually cleared through
:26:07. > :26:13.and we are left with some dry conditions overnight. Temperatures
:26:13. > :26:24.are still muddy and perhaps some mist and Merck. Dry and bright
:26:24. > :26:33.conditions but a band of weather will bring us some windy conditions.
:26:33. > :26:40.The wet weather will sweep through during the latter part of Saturday.
:26:40. > :26:46.Isobars still tightly packed. One or two showers in the mix but still the
:26:46. > :26:48.wind is pretty strong and gusty. We have weekend events to look forward
:26:48. > :26:52.to. For the National Feast of Lanterns
:26:52. > :26:55.on the Somerley Estate in Ringwood it looks like we'll see a dry spell
:26:55. > :26:58.tomorrow evening, as things get glowing. The event runs right
:26:58. > :27:02.through this weekend, so expect some rain at times. And for the Rewind
:27:02. > :27:06.Festival in Henley on Thames, it should be dry for a time on Friday
:27:06. > :27:14.evening, but wellies at the ready for Saturday! We do have the wet
:27:14. > :27:18.weather to come. Take a look at your summary for the next few days.
:27:18. > :27:24.Tomorrow, rain to start, becoming drier into the evening. A bright
:27:24. > :27:28.start to Saturday but the wet weather sweeps in from the West with
:27:28. > :27:32.very strong winds at times, particularly along the coast. Sunday
:27:32. > :27:37.looks blustery with one or two showers in the mix.
:27:37. > :27:43.Tomorrow night, we look into the future, quite literally, about how a
:27:43. > :27:46.pair of glasses in an app could help in the developing world.
