:00:04. > :00:10.And Hello I'm Alex Forsyth. Welcome to South Today. In tonight's
:00:10. > :00:13.programme: Jailed for his part in this attack on a petrol station
:00:13. > :00:16.forecourt cash machine. Walk—out — firefighters across the
:00:16. > :00:26.south go on strike over pensions and retirement age changes. What we
:00:26. > :00:31.don't want to do is be members of the public at risk, but we believe
:00:31. > :00:34.that making firefighters go on past 55 is also dangerous for the public.
:00:34. > :00:36.We're behind the scenes at an operation which could revolutionise
:00:36. > :00:39.treatment for those at risk of stroke and heart attacks.
:00:39. > :00:47.And the mums finding their own way back to work.
:00:47. > :00:50.It became apparent that I would be working in order to pay my childcare
:00:50. > :01:02.costs, and I would not be getting anything in return.
:01:02. > :01:06.A man who admitted driving a gang to a garage near Andover where they
:01:06. > :01:09.blew up a cash machine in a huge explosion has been sentenced to
:01:09. > :01:12.three and a half years in prison. The Texaco garage in Weyhill was
:01:12. > :01:15.targeted in March this year. Damien Limb pleaded guilty to conspiracy to
:01:15. > :01:23.steal and conspiracy to cause criminal damage. Briony Leyland
:01:23. > :01:28.reports. The early hours of Easter Sunday. A
:01:28. > :01:32.cash machine at an apparently deserted garage in Weyhill. Local
:01:32. > :01:36.people said it sounded like a bomb going off. The cashier sheen had
:01:36. > :01:41.been rigged with explosives gases. The huge explosion replayed here in
:01:41. > :01:45.slow motion scattered £20,000 across the forecourt. The footage also
:01:46. > :01:51.showed members of the gang scooping up banknotes. The only person to be
:01:51. > :02:02.charged so far is the man who drove the gang. He pleaded guilty to
:02:02. > :02:04.conspiracy to steal and conspiracy to cause criminal damage. He was
:02:04. > :02:08.sentenced to three and a half years. Police were able to trace Damien
:02:08. > :02:12.Limb because they picked up a receipt from the ground that turned
:02:12. > :02:17.out to be where the gang's are had been parked. It was a receipt for
:02:17. > :02:21.petrol bought in Bristol a few days before. Damien Limb's defence said
:02:21. > :02:30.he had remained in the car after the raid and had —— during the raid, and
:02:30. > :02:33.not benefited financially. The £16,000 the gang left behind was
:02:33. > :02:39.collected by officers. Damage to the garage was extensive, and cost
:02:39. > :02:42.£130,000 to repair. Detectives say the method used to block the machine
:02:42. > :02:46.was highly dangerous, and it is lucky no one was injured.
:02:46. > :02:52.How much control do you think they had over the explosion?
:02:52. > :02:56.Very little. We still can't be certain what caused the explosion
:02:56. > :03:01.today lace. There was a source of ignition, we cannot say what that
:03:01. > :03:04.is. It was very much uncontrolled. Police say the case remains open,
:03:04. > :03:07.and they have appealed to the public to help bring all those involved to
:03:07. > :03:10.justice. Firefighters in the south were among
:03:10. > :03:14.thousands around the country who went on strike today, the first such
:03:14. > :03:16.industrial action for a decade. The Fire Brigades Union says under the
:03:16. > :03:22.government's changes firefighters will have to work until they are 60
:03:22. > :03:25.to get their full pension. But the Government insists it's made a 'very
:03:25. > :03:32.good offer.' Most fire services in the south relied on retained and
:03:32. > :03:35.nonunion members. But in Surrey, a private company was brought in as
:03:35. > :03:44.back up. Joe Campbell reports from Surrey.
:03:44. > :03:46.If Surrey's Fire chiefs thought playing hardball with union members
:03:46. > :03:51.would undermine today's strike, there was no sign of it here in
:03:51. > :03:55.Farnham, as the time came to walk out.
:03:55. > :03:59.What is a national dispute over pensions has now been brought firmly
:03:59. > :04:04.to Surrey firefighters door by their fire authority.
:04:04. > :04:07.Even before the shutters came down, whose newly would get no pay for
:04:07. > :04:13.today. Managers had another surprise in store. When crews turned on this
:04:13. > :04:16.morning, they were told they were off the run, that meant they would
:04:16. > :04:20.not be sent out to answer emergency calls. Instructions came that if
:04:20. > :04:23.anyone even ran into the fire station asking for help, they
:04:23. > :04:28.themselves were supposed to ring 999, and a crew from the private
:04:28. > :04:34.company contracted to provide cover would be sent instead.
:04:34. > :04:38.The crews have had 17 weeks of firefighter training, including
:04:38. > :04:43.breathing apparatus and cutting equipment, so we can provide that
:04:43. > :04:47.resilience during strike action. In the end, most of the privately
:04:47. > :04:53.crude engines like this one when not needed. Just to whet out from other
:04:53. > :04:57.sites monetary fire in some bushes and the burning car.
:04:57. > :05:02.Yes, they might have got away with it today, but they are gambling with
:05:02. > :05:05.people's lives. Today Surrey ran on 50% production of fire cover. They
:05:05. > :05:10.got away with it today, will they get away with it tomorrow? As things
:05:10. > :05:19.get back to normal as evening, it seems that both sides remain farther
:05:19. > :05:23.apart than ever. At the strike of midday, these
:05:23. > :05:28.fireman walked out of the Southsea station. The row over pension has
:05:28. > :05:31.reached stalemate. The government says the offer is generous, but the
:05:31. > :05:35.Fire Brigade union argues that many will not be able to maintain their
:05:35. > :05:40.fitness for that long, and that will put the public at risk.
:05:40. > :05:44.In other emergency services there are backroom positions that people
:05:44. > :05:49.can dissolve back into. We don't have that ability. Operational
:05:49. > :05:55.firefighters have to keep going, so we believe that it is unsafe for a
:05:55. > :05:59.firefighter of 55 and above to be going out on operation. It is
:05:59. > :06:03.dangerous for them, and dangerous for the public. In Worthing,
:06:03. > :06:07.firefighters were also seen leaving in force.
:06:07. > :06:11.The strike period lasted four hours. In Eastleigh, the fire chief was
:06:11. > :06:14.confident that contingency plans would give the public safe in that
:06:14. > :06:18.time. If they have an emergency and called
:06:18. > :06:23.999, we will be ready and we will respond. The service will inevitably
:06:23. > :06:28.be affected, the attendance times will be slower, but we will respond.
:06:28. > :06:31.If we had a major incident, we have agreed with the Fire Brigades Union
:06:31. > :06:37.locally that they will return to work for that incident, and we have
:06:37. > :06:41.contingencies to bring them back very quickly.
:06:41. > :06:44.The Fire Brigade union told me the strike was specifically targeted at
:06:44. > :06:48.the quietest time of day. Just minutes after the strike ended,
:06:48. > :06:54.crews in West Sussex copy call about a coach crash the A23 full stop as
:06:54. > :06:59.the Southsea firefighters went back on shift, the dispute over pensions
:06:59. > :07:03.could intensify. The fire service has always received strong public
:07:03. > :07:06.support, but any escalation in the dispute may put that support under
:07:06. > :07:10.strain. Concern is growing for a missing
:07:10. > :07:13.sailor from Dorset who was last seen at the weekend. 61—year—old Geoffrey
:07:13. > :07:16.Cole from Weymouth is believed to have set sail from the town on
:07:16. > :07:19.Saturday morning. He was bound for Swanage, but never arrived. His
:07:20. > :07:28.sailing boat was found on Monday by French coastguards near Calais and
:07:28. > :07:32.Boulogne with no—one on board. It is a common condition that can be
:07:32. > :07:34.life—threatening, adding nearly two in ten cases, taking drugs to
:07:34. > :07:38.control high blood pressure doesn't work. Now a new treatment is being
:07:38. > :07:41.pioneered in Reading. An operation around the kidneys was a success at
:07:41. > :07:47.the Royal Berkshire Hospital this morning. Our reporter Ben Moore had
:07:47. > :07:52.exclusive access to the procedure. The drugs don't work for David
:07:52. > :07:56.Westcombe, and his high blood pressure leaves at a much higher
:07:56. > :08:02.risk of a stroke or heart attack. Surgery is being prepped.
:08:02. > :08:08.It actually killed my mother which was 56. So this started up from the
:08:09. > :08:14.about five years ago. Nothing was working for you?
:08:14. > :08:18.Nothing at all. I am on and off a lot of medication, but none of it
:08:18. > :08:23.touches it. So this, I think, is probably a godsend.
:08:23. > :08:28.It is all very controlled, and as you can see, he is fairly content.
:08:28. > :08:31.This operation of the Royal Berkshire Hospital is the first of
:08:31. > :08:34.its kind in the NHS. Until now, research projects have
:08:34. > :08:39.pioneered the technique that has focused on the kidneys.
:08:39. > :08:43.The control of blood pressure is a feedback loop from the brain to the
:08:43. > :08:48.kidneys and back—up to the brain. We know that if we interrupt this we
:08:48. > :08:52.deliver five or six burns in each artery, and this disrupts the small
:08:52. > :09:01.pipers. The catheter is tracked with x—rays,
:09:01. > :09:05.17 were lead lined nests. David is sedated but remains awake
:09:05. > :09:09.throughout. The procedure will be used for about
:09:09. > :09:15.15% of patients, which should reduce pressure on the NHS. The cost of the
:09:15. > :09:21.operation is about £6,000. That is significantly cheaper than
:09:21. > :09:26.the treatment and rehabilitation of a stroke patient which can cost up
:09:26. > :09:31.to £100,000. Even a 2—point increase in your
:09:31. > :09:34.blood pressure can cause a seven point increase in heart attacks and
:09:34. > :09:40.810% increasing strokes. This procedure can on average reduce your
:09:40. > :09:44.point score on the top wife 30, and by 12 on the bottom figure. That is
:09:44. > :09:48.phenomenal. The operation was a success.
:09:48. > :09:52.Although it may take months for David's readings to settle at a
:09:52. > :10:00.lower level will stop essentially, it will take the pressure off his
:10:00. > :10:03.body. Still to come in this evening's
:10:03. > :10:06.South Today: Is it the Ainslie effect?
:10:06. > :10:11.Sir Ben helps the US to a nail biting finish in the America's Cup.
:10:11. > :10:13.The Brighton Pavilion MP, Caroline Lucas is to be prosecuted after
:10:14. > :10:16.taking part in anti—fracking demonstrations. The Green MP was
:10:16. > :10:19.arrested last month during protests outside the Cuadrilla drilling site
:10:19. > :10:22.in Balcombe in West Sussex. She's been charged for obstructing the
:10:22. > :10:25.highway and failing to comply with a police condition to move to a
:10:25. > :10:30.specified protest area. She'll appear before magistrates in
:10:30. > :10:34.October. Figures released today have given a
:10:34. > :10:38.fresh picture of the number of mums in work. Across the country, just
:10:38. > :10:48.over 35% of mums under 25 have a job. That rises to just over 60% for
:10:48. > :10:52.women aged between 25 and 34. But the rate for women of the same age
:10:52. > :10:56.who do not have children is considerably higher. The South does
:10:56. > :11:00.have a high level of women in employment — but some new mums still
:11:00. > :11:03.find it so hard to get back into work, they are deciding to set up
:11:03. > :11:05.their own business from home. Katy Austin reports.
:11:05. > :11:08.The biggest gift Eliza's wedding decor business gives her is
:11:08. > :11:11.flexibility. She used to be a teacher, but when her second child
:11:11. > :11:19.came along, she found it impossible to return to that job.
:11:19. > :11:24.After my second, it became apparent that I would be working in order to
:11:24. > :11:29.pay my child care costs, and I would not be getting anything in return. I
:11:29. > :11:33.would literally be going to work in order to pay my childcare, which for
:11:33. > :11:36.me did not balance. I really wanted some kind of balance for my family.
:11:36. > :11:40.The picture for female employment in general has improved over recent
:11:40. > :11:46.decades. But women without children are still much more likely to have
:11:46. > :11:54.jobs than mothers. If we look at women with children,
:11:54. > :11:56.it is important the age of child. If the child is in preschool age there
:11:56. > :11:59.is a lower percentage of women in work. As the child gets older,
:11:59. > :12:02.higher percentage of women do work. Childcare costs, inflexible hours
:12:02. > :12:05.and redundancy are some barriers that can leave mums on benefits
:12:05. > :12:08.rather than in work. But business networking groups like these help
:12:08. > :12:12.mums to make money from home and support each other — and membership
:12:12. > :12:17.has boomed in the South. One former financial adviser went self—employed
:12:17. > :12:23.and hasn't looked back. There is more flexibility. Both my
:12:23. > :12:26.children are quite demanding, one of them is in the autism spectrum and I
:12:26. > :12:29.have had to be a lot more flexible for him. There is no way I could
:12:29. > :12:34.hold down a job with my son and give him the support that he needs.
:12:34. > :12:39.With some of our ladies we have people who have health issues, and
:12:39. > :12:42.certainly for the younger babies and things like that, once they have
:12:42. > :12:46.done maternity it is about returning to work, and then they find that
:12:46. > :12:49.they either want to stay with their families, or it may be to do with
:12:49. > :12:55.the childcare. There is a whole host of reasons.
:12:55. > :12:58.The Shadow home secretary, with special responsibilities for women
:12:58. > :13:01.and equalities, told the Labour party conference this week thousands
:13:01. > :13:04.of women were losing their jobs after returning from maternity
:13:04. > :13:06.leave. She thinks there's a lot more to be done to make the workplace
:13:06. > :13:10.work for mums. They need support for the family,
:13:10. > :13:13.but also to know that there is a affordable childcare available if
:13:13. > :13:16.you want to go back to work. Too often there isn't, and that's why we
:13:16. > :13:17.want to increase free childcare available.
:13:17. > :13:21.But the government says it is introducing a new tax break for
:13:21. > :13:25.childcare costs, worth up to £1,200 per child per year. It also has
:13:25. > :13:50.plans to extend the right to request flexible working to all employees.
:13:50. > :13:57.Permission has been granted for a solar farm.
:13:57. > :14:01.We'd like to tell you now about a special little boy. Lewis Preuss
:14:01. > :14:04.from Blandford is the only person in the world diagnosed with a rare
:14:04. > :14:07.genetic disorder. Lewis, who's nearly two and a half, was
:14:07. > :14:11.inexplicably born missing part of chromosome number eight. As a result
:14:11. > :14:16.he suffers from a range of medical and developmental problems. Every
:14:16. > :14:19.day is a learning curve for his parents, who are hoping to raise
:14:19. > :14:31.awareness of such conditions. Jo Kent has been to meet the family.
:14:31. > :14:35.A greeting to make any parent's de, but it means so much more to Leanne
:14:35. > :14:41.and Darren. Last week when I picked him up from
:14:41. > :14:45.nursery, he saw me, and it is the first time he recognised me, and he
:14:45. > :14:56.smiled and came over to me and give me a kiss, and, yes... It was
:14:56. > :15:02.lovely. I remember Darren and Leanne
:15:02. > :15:06.saying, will he ever recognise us? It's a question we can't really
:15:06. > :15:10.answer, and then one day is like a light bulb going on, and he knows
:15:10. > :15:14.that it is his mum and dad and he's got a run to them and cuddle them.
:15:14. > :15:22.Lewis was diagnosed at six weeks old. A charity has puts the parents
:15:22. > :15:25.in touch with others who have suffered genetic disorders.
:15:25. > :15:30.Genetic disorders individually are very rare, but when you put them
:15:30. > :15:33.together, the affect one in 25 children in the UK, which is 30,000
:15:33. > :15:40.children born every year. When you group these conditions together,
:15:40. > :15:45.they actually become quite common. It is now time for lunch. Lewis's
:15:45. > :15:49.stomach does not work properly, so he is fed through a tube. This is
:15:49. > :15:55.something he will endure for life. It is a number of issues he faces.
:15:55. > :16:00.He has two holes in the heart, he has an airway obstruction, he has
:16:00. > :16:04.high probability, so all of his joint move in ways that they
:16:04. > :16:10.shouldn't. He has developmental delay, severe developmental delay.
:16:10. > :16:13.Lewis's condition is not life limiting, but no one can predict how
:16:13. > :16:18.he will develop. The family takes each day as it comes.
:16:18. > :16:22.There is no cure for what Lewis has, all we can do is cheer his symptoms.
:16:22. > :16:26.And sometimes to realise that there is no cure is quite hard and
:16:26. > :16:30.heartbreaking. The only hope I have this happiness.
:16:30. > :16:35.That's all I want. We just want him to be happy.
:16:35. > :16:38.Unmanned flights — by drones as they're often known — have
:16:38. > :16:40.predominantly been used by the military. They've been used
:16:40. > :16:44.extensively in areas where it's considered too dangerous to send a
:16:44. > :16:47.plane with a crew. But there's a growing tendency to use what are
:16:47. > :16:50.very sophisticated model aeroplanes for civilian uses, such as search
:16:50. > :16:55.and rescue, farming and climate research. One of those leading the
:16:56. > :17:00.charge on this development is Professor Jim Scanlan at the
:17:00. > :17:04.University of Southampton. And 3D printers are playing a big part as
:17:04. > :17:13.well. He joined me in the studio a little earlier, and I asked him what
:17:13. > :17:17.they were working on at Southampton. We do quite a lot of research in the
:17:17. > :17:22.field of aeronautical engineering, and this is part of our research and
:17:22. > :17:24.undergraduate teaching. You have brought a couple of these models in
:17:24. > :17:30.with you today. Talk me through what we have today.
:17:30. > :17:36.The small aeroplane sitting in front of us is a demonstrator which we
:17:36. > :17:41.produced about 18 months ago. That is the world's first printed
:17:41. > :17:45.aeroplane. Rented with a 3—D printer, is that
:17:46. > :17:48.right? That's right. You plot the printer
:17:48. > :17:53.directly into your computer, and very like a normal printer, you say
:17:53. > :17:57.print, and sometime later, out come the parts.
:17:57. > :18:05.Not the big one, surely? That wasn't printed? Yes stop the first one led
:18:05. > :18:08.directly to the second aeroplane, which is a serious aeroplane design
:18:08. > :18:12.to do a job. Two thirds of that structure is
:18:12. > :18:15.printed technology. The way they are made is fascinating, but they also
:18:15. > :18:21.have an important use. Tell me what they can do. Our
:18:21. > :18:27.interest at Southampton is in civil applications of unmanned aircraft.
:18:27. > :18:30.Things like agriculture, search and rescue, scientific use, climate
:18:30. > :18:36.change. Anything that needs to carry a sensor to produce useful data.
:18:36. > :18:39.So you could put a camera on these and they could fly across fields and
:18:39. > :18:42.pick up important images, that type of thing?
:18:42. > :18:48.That is what they are designed to do, yes.
:18:48. > :18:51.What market have you had for them? The large aircraft as part of a
:18:51. > :18:57.European project which is going to be trialled by the Kent police. They
:18:57. > :19:04.wanted to go out over the sea to look for pollution, to check that
:19:04. > :19:11.people aren't doing illegal diving. To protect wind farms, and suchlike.
:19:11. > :19:16.They have a serious need to fly an aircraft like this. It is a lot
:19:16. > :19:19.cheaper than helicopters. And because there are no pilots,
:19:19. > :19:25.they can go in areas where people perhaps wouldn't want to.
:19:25. > :19:32.Yes, it is the dull, dirty, dangerous missions. We are ideally
:19:32. > :19:36.suited for those sort of missions. Much of this high—end technology has
:19:36. > :19:40.its start in life in the military. We know the use of drones has been
:19:40. > :19:46.quite controversial in military terms. That is quite funny not what
:19:46. > :19:49.you are doing in Southampton. Our interest is in exploiting it in
:19:49. > :19:53.the civil arena, largely because that is with the big demand will be.
:19:53. > :19:57.There will be an explosion in use of these things over the next five or
:19:57. > :20:02.ten years. That will dwarf military use.
:20:02. > :20:06.We really are looking at the future. I believe so, yes.
:20:06. > :20:12.Professor, thank you for being with us. Thank you.
:20:12. > :20:18.Jim Scanlan talking to me earlier with his impressive model planes.
:20:18. > :20:22.Now the sport. Now, this is all about the America's Cup. I watched a
:20:22. > :20:26.bit of it last night, and I can't pretend to understand it, but it is
:20:26. > :20:29.thrilling. It has been a thrilling few days.
:20:29. > :20:34.Basically, whoever wins the final race of the series either Emirates
:20:34. > :20:41.team New Zealand Oracle team USA, wins the whole thing. New Zealand
:20:41. > :20:47.were 81 ahead, now it is a tall. But a local man has been playing an
:20:47. > :20:51.important part in all of that. Ben Ainslie, now his comeback in the
:20:51. > :20:55.America's Cup after Olympic golds. Four Olympic golds in his CV, but
:20:55. > :21:05.sailing people will tell you this is the one he wants to end his career
:21:05. > :21:08.on. Hampshire sailor Sir Ben Ainslie
:21:08. > :21:11.stands on the brink of another remarkable sporting feat, as the
:21:11. > :21:14.America's Cup enters its final chapter this evening. The quadruple
:21:14. > :21:17.Olympic champion from Lymington, has helped his Team Oracle USA boat
:21:17. > :21:19.level the series, setting up a winner—takes—all deciding race this
:21:19. > :21:22.evening. Here's Katherine Downes. Boats skimming across the water at
:21:22. > :21:24.up to 50 miles an hour, riding the wind for yachting's biggest price.
:21:24. > :21:27.The fight for it has produced yachting's biggest comeback. That's
:21:27. > :21:34.the biggest comeback any sport has seen. One week ago, the American
:21:34. > :21:37.Team Oracle was one race away from losing the America's Cup. But the
:21:37. > :21:41.Americans made changes to their board and crew, bringing in
:21:41. > :21:46.Britain's most decorated sailor, Ben Ainslie, as tactician to conjure a
:21:46. > :21:51.comeback from the waves of San Francisco Bay. And it has worked.
:21:51. > :21:57.They have won seven successive races ahead of today's final contest. The
:21:57. > :22:00.series is tied at eight all. Like every race, the guys will give
:22:00. > :22:06.it everything, all the way to the end. Executing everything as you
:22:06. > :22:11.would do in every other race. It has been a long fight, hit by delays.
:22:11. > :22:15.British sailor Andrew Simpson died in May while training for the
:22:15. > :22:17.competition with a Swedish team. Since then, organisers have
:22:17. > :22:21.cancelled racing if the winds are too strong. Then Ainslie was also
:22:21. > :22:25.training on the day that his great friend was killed. He said at the
:22:25. > :22:29.time that he would remember Simpson for inspiration when he was on the
:22:29. > :22:32.water. We see Ben operating at a very
:22:32. > :22:37.different level. You have seen him on his own in a boat, winning, and
:22:37. > :22:41.now we see him going into the team making a difference working as a
:22:41. > :22:45.team. That is fabulous to see on these massive boards on this massive
:22:45. > :22:49.stage. Today it comes down to tactics and conditions.
:22:49. > :22:52.New Zealand's pride and American ambition. At the moment, there is
:22:52. > :22:56.barely a droplet of water between them.
:22:56. > :23:05.There will be highlights of that tonight.
:23:05. > :23:08.Southampton are the region's sole representatives remaining in the
:23:08. > :23:11.Capital One Cup. They justified their favourites tag to knock out
:23:11. > :23:14.League One strugglers Bristol City in the third round. With Saints
:23:14. > :23:17.making a full eleven changes from their Premier League win at
:23:17. > :23:20.Liverpool, a first half sizzler from Uruguayan international Gaston
:23:20. > :23:23.Ramirez lit up a tepid match. Bristol City had chances after the
:23:23. > :23:26.break, but Dutch defender Jos Hooiveld bundled in Saints' second
:23:26. > :23:35.late on, to put his side into tonight's fourth round draw.
:23:35. > :23:41.We are happy about the result, because it was hard at the end of
:23:41. > :23:45.the game. That is a lesson for the future, because we know it is
:23:45. > :23:50.difficult to play with so many changes.
:23:50. > :23:52.Staying with football, and League Two Portsmouth have appointed
:23:52. > :23:55.experienced striker David Connolly to a player—coach role at the club.
:23:55. > :23:58.The 36—year—old has been with Pompey since January. He'll now combine
:23:58. > :24:01.playing, with a coaching position with the first team, alongside the
:24:01. > :24:04.existing management pair of Guy Whittingham and Alan McLoughlin.
:24:04. > :24:07.It's been the second day of the final round of County Championship
:24:07. > :24:10.cricket matches. Sussex are taking on the newly—crowned champions
:24:10. > :24:13.Durham at Hove. Sussex built a good first innings lead, thanks to Luke
:24:13. > :24:16.Wright's 87. Durham will begin day three 162 behind. At the Oval,
:24:16. > :24:20.relegated Surrey are looking to end their stay in Division One with a
:24:20. > :24:24.win. Replying to Yorkshire's first innings of 434, Surrey reached 172
:24:24. > :24:27.for one. And at the Ageas Bowl, Adam Wheater reached a century for
:24:27. > :24:35.Hampshire against his old club Essex, who've been forced to follow
:24:35. > :24:38.on. Hampshire's loan signing Matt Coles took six for 71, in the
:24:38. > :24:45.visitors' first innings. Essex closed on 44 for zero, second time
:24:45. > :24:50.around. The day started with Cricket weather, and finished with
:24:50. > :24:56.non—Cricket weather. Thank you, Chris. You know, we know
:24:56. > :25:02.it is often annoyed want we're sunny as it should be, but it is really
:25:02. > :25:05.foggy. It is called radiation fog. We have
:25:05. > :25:09.the strength of the sun beating down on the ground, and with light winds,
:25:09. > :25:15.the sun disappears, the air cools and we have a lot of moisture in the
:25:15. > :25:19.air causing that Fox. It was a foggy start to the day in
:25:20. > :25:23.Littlehampton. Mavis Hortin captured the harbour view or what there was
:25:23. > :25:26.of it. An inquisitive swan was photographed by Greg Wood on the
:25:26. > :25:34.river Hamble. And Peter Raw captured the Needles under blue skies before
:25:34. > :25:38.the thick mist rolled in. There will be some showers and some
:25:38. > :25:41.fog patches overnight tonight. It could be quite dense in a few
:25:41. > :25:45.places. That fog and mist lapping the south coast and also hilltop
:25:45. > :25:50.areas. A few showers as well, drifting along the south coast, they
:25:50. > :25:54.could edge inland as they are doing. It should become drier as we had
:25:54. > :25:59.through the night. Still the risk of fog patches, and temperatures a
:25:59. > :26:04.mild, 15 degrees 16 Celsius. A marquee and damp start. Rain will
:26:04. > :26:08.continue along the south coast. Showers drifting northwards.
:26:08. > :26:13.Sunshine for Northern areas during the morning, and sunshine for
:26:13. > :26:19.southernmost areas in the afternoon. Highs of just 18 Celsius. A few
:26:19. > :26:24.degrees lower than today. For tomorrow evening, some showers, but
:26:24. > :26:29.it will be a night where we will see an improving picture, maybe one or
:26:29. > :26:35.two showers on the south coast by Dawn on Friday, and temperatures
:26:35. > :26:39.will fall to 13 up to 15 Celsius. Another Monday night to come. The
:26:39. > :26:44.low pressure is not going anywhere. It is stuck in the Atlantic. That
:26:44. > :26:51.pushes the areas where the funds towards us, so rain at various
:26:51. > :26:54.times. Friday should stay dry there could be rain first thing, but it
:26:54. > :26:58.will dry out later on in the day. Low pressure will mean a change for
:26:58. > :27:01.the weekend, and unfortunately for the south of England we are
:27:01. > :27:07.expecting some heavy showers. There could even be thunder on Saturday
:27:07. > :27:11.and Sunday. An unsettled picture as we had through the rest of the week
:27:11. > :27:18.towards the weekend. A lot of fog around tomorrow. MIDI some sunshine
:27:18. > :27:23.for some of us. But wins start to increase and pick up speed as we had
:27:23. > :27:29.through the week. And grey start on Friday, but an improving picture.
:27:29. > :27:37.Thunderstorms could move up from the south on Saturday and Sunday.
:27:37. > :27:44.That's all from us. We will be back at 8pm and 10:25pm. Good evening.
