Hello, welcome. Tonight: A powerboating world record and then | :00:08. | :00:20. | |
this happens... The Hampshire racer Lucky to be alive. At that point, | :00:21. | :00:24. | |
there is nothing you can do but brace yourself for the impact and go | :00:25. | :00:31. | |
into survival mode. It went into the water going forwards. It could have | :00:32. | :00:36. | |
been a different story. How some companies predicted the end of | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
shipbuilding in Portsmouth and diversify it. If we had not have | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
noticed and taken steps we would be finished now because they were 80% | :00:45. | :00:51. | |
of the work. And from here to maternity, the vicar who delivered | :00:52. | :00:57. | |
his own grandchild in a car park. A little head was appearing and in a | :00:58. | :01:02. | |
few seconds the whole head and then out she popped into my hands. | :01:03. | :01:11. | |
Good evening. First tonight ` dramatic pictures of the moment a | :01:12. | :01:16. | |
powerboat driver crashed at more than 130 miles per hour. Keith | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
Whittle, from Hayling Island, had just broken a world speed record in | :01:20. | :01:23. | |
the Lake District when his boat flipped, spinning in the air, before | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
crashing back into the water. Remarkably he came to the surface | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
unscathed. Duncan Kennedy has the story. | :01:30. | :01:39. | |
The water flats, the wind calm, the record for Keith Whittle was on. | :01:40. | :01:50. | |
Until this... 130 miles an hour and a backflip on Coniston water. Slowed | :01:51. | :01:56. | |
down, the complete flip looks even more incredible. Only the boat stiff | :01:57. | :02:02. | |
structure and airbags keep him alive. The boat is running 135 miles | :02:03. | :02:11. | |
an hour. He relived the moment this afternoon. The boat lifts off, at | :02:12. | :02:18. | |
that point, Christ, this will be expensive. And also painful. Bruised | :02:19. | :02:27. | |
and shaken. I have a fuel aches and pains but I am OK and survived a | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
high`speed accident. I have bruised ribs. I was lucky. It would not put | :02:33. | :02:40. | |
me off at all. Only now the boat is out of the water that you can get a | :02:41. | :02:43. | |
sense of the damage, splits and cracks all the way along the carbon | :02:44. | :02:48. | |
fibre hull, including the windshield. Keith says it is all | :02:49. | :02:55. | |
repairable but the key thing is he set a new world record. It came 46 | :02:56. | :03:06. | |
years after this... Donald Campbell died in identical crash on the same | :03:07. | :03:12. | |
stretch of water. It is not clear what caused Keith Whittle's flip but | :03:13. | :03:18. | |
speed combined with safety kept him and his record alive. | :03:19. | :03:27. | |
Ships built to service off shore wind turbines or oil and gas rigs. | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
It's one option being suggested to keep the docks in Portsmouth from | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
going under. It's two weeks since BAE announced it's to close the | :03:38. | :03:40. | |
naval shipyard ` and almost two years since the first rumours of the | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
threat to Portsmouth's future. Some companies saw the writing on the | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
wall and diversified. Others in the supply chain are now vulnerable but | :03:48. | :03:50. | |
could help have come sooner? Our business correspondent Alastair Fee | :03:51. | :03:56. | |
reports. This high`tech factory used to rely | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
on orders from Bae who made up three quarters of its work, now 5% of the | :04:02. | :04:07. | |
components go to the docks. The business has involved to reinvent | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
itself for different markets like satellites and yachts. We were | :04:13. | :04:16. | |
working with major companies so we pushed them formal business, told | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
them what we had done and luckily it paid off. Others are in trouble. | :04:21. | :04:28. | |
Around 2000 people are employed in companies in the supply chain. That | :04:29. | :04:34. | |
is on top of the 1100 directly employed in the shipyard. News that | :04:35. | :04:45. | |
hundreds of jobs were at risk first broke in January last year while | :04:46. | :04:48. | |
some money to help businesses has been available, it took 18 months | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
before a dedicated fund of four points 7 million was announced by | :04:53. | :05:00. | |
the local partnership. Hindsight is always good, people reflect what | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
announcements are made, could we have done more, we have had in place | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
of support long before this announcement but I think with this | :05:08. | :05:12. | |
particular fund, it clearly resonate strongly with those supply chain | :05:13. | :05:15. | |
companies that are looking at how they need to change their business. | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
Portsmouth knows it must bounce back. And events to encourage | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
entrepreneurship, in the audience a business with ambitious plans to | :05:26. | :05:36. | |
keep shipbuilding going. Whether it is the wind turbine market or any | :05:37. | :05:40. | |
sort of oil and gas or offshore, what they need to support operations | :05:41. | :05:47. | |
are small ships. And small boats. The work boat market becomes quite | :05:48. | :05:51. | |
keen and is something we would be wanting to look into. That could be | :05:52. | :06:00. | |
in build next summer? Yes. The words of the moment is diversify, Bae has | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
announced a new maintenance repair deal with a ferry company and it | :06:05. | :06:09. | |
needs to look beyond the Navy. We will continue to follow those | :06:10. | :06:25. | |
events. A company which makes pipes for the | :06:26. | :06:28. | |
offshore oil and gas industry is creating a hundred new jobs in | :06:29. | :06:31. | |
Portsmouth. Magma already employs a hundred and fifty people at its | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
Trafalgar Wharf plant. It says it'll spend ten million pounds expanding | :06:36. | :06:38. | |
its facilities. A quarter of that amount comes from the government's | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
regional growth fund. The airline Easyjet has announced | :06:43. | :06:45. | |
200 new jobs at Gatwick Airport. The flight and cabin crew positions come | :06:46. | :06:49. | |
as a result of five new destinations for the airline, after its purchase | :06:50. | :06:52. | |
of take`off and landing slots from Flybe. This morning, the company | :06:53. | :06:56. | |
announced record profits, as it expands into the business travel | :06:57. | :07:04. | |
market. Sean Killick reports. Passengers checking in for easyJet | :07:05. | :07:08. | |
flights at Gatwick will have a wider choice of destinations in future. | :07:09. | :07:14. | |
The airline has spent ?20 million buying landing slots from Flybe and | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
it is targeting business travellers. It announced new routes to Brussels | :07:19. | :07:24. | |
and Strasbourg on top of Paris, Newcastle and Jersey. It is good | :07:25. | :07:27. | |
news, we are growing the local economy. We are growing commitments | :07:28. | :07:34. | |
to Gatwick and the area and it is about providing new business | :07:35. | :07:40. | |
connectivity. The objective is to grow business passengers and | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
alongside Gatwick to grow Gatwick as a business airport. EasyJet | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
anticipates new routes will mean it will have 1.3 million additional | :07:49. | :07:54. | |
passengers, around 300,000 more than Flybe. They have bigger aircraft so | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
we anticipate numbers being in the hundreds of thousands. The important | :07:59. | :08:05. | |
thing actually is the improvement of the services for business travellers | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
because by introducing the new routes, it takes a number of routes | :08:10. | :08:14. | |
being served to over 200, that is the largest in the whole of the UK. | :08:15. | :08:23. | |
Recruitment for the 200 new cabin crew and aircrew is under way. | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
Training will begin over the winter ready for when easyJet takes over | :08:28. | :08:30. | |
the new routes at the end of next March. A Hampshire Police Sergeant | :08:31. | :08:37. | |
could face disciplinary action after being criticised for the way he | :08:38. | :08:40. | |
handled an incident that left a man with severe brain injuries. | :08:41. | :08:43. | |
Andrew Toseland was stamped on outside Garland Court in Gosport in | :08:44. | :08:46. | |
August 2012 after he'd asked a group to keep quiet. Two men were jailed | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
for the attack last month. An Independent Police Complaints | :08:51. | :08:52. | |
Commission report concluded that the Sergeant had acted unprofessionally | :08:53. | :08:54. | |
and hadn't supervised local officers adequately. A former member of the | :08:55. | :09:08. | |
Royal Artillery has been sentenced after being found guilty of the | :09:09. | :09:13. | |
murder of a fellow soldier. He died after suffering a head injury when | :09:14. | :09:19. | |
he was not the ground in June 2009. His colleague has always denied | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
punching him in the head. He said he struck him in the chest. Around a | :09:24. | :09:29. | |
thousand Ghurkha veterans have marched on parliament in an ongoing | :09:30. | :09:32. | |
protest over equal pension provision. | :09:33. | :09:34. | |
Currently Ghurkha veterans only get a third of that received by their | :09:35. | :09:37. | |
former British comrades. Among the protestors is a 55`year`old veteran | :09:38. | :09:40. | |
from Reading who has been on hunger strike for 12 days and has vowed to | :09:41. | :09:44. | |
starve himself to death. The MoD says the Ghurkhas have always been | :09:45. | :09:47. | |
treated fairly ` and that their terms of service have improved over | :09:48. | :09:52. | |
time. We did 20 years of campaigning and many many died waiting justice. | :09:53. | :09:58. | |
They became unfortunate and I do not want to see horrendous situations | :09:59. | :10:08. | |
any more. I would rather die. Still to come, the weather details and | :10:09. | :10:14. | |
here it is Tony. We hear from Kevin Pietersen, an upset in the FA Cup | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
and we meet the first of the finalists for this years sports | :10:19. | :10:30. | |
unsung hero. Child poverty ` it may sound like a third world problem but | :10:31. | :10:33. | |
it's here on our doorstep in greater numbers than you may realise. | :10:34. | :10:36. | |
According to Government figures, one in five children in Reading is | :10:37. | :10:40. | |
living in poverty. That's around the national average but double the rate | :10:41. | :10:43. | |
in neighbouring West Berkshire. In Portsmouth and Southampton, the | :10:44. | :10:45. | |
figure is around one in four children.A conference is underway in | :10:46. | :10:48. | |
Reading right now to discuss the issue and what can be done to help | :10:49. | :10:52. | |
tackle poverty. Our reporter Briony Leyland is there. Reading is seen as | :10:53. | :11:04. | |
a prosperous place and it is one of the top economies in the UK that | :11:05. | :11:09. | |
there are pockets of deprivation. The conference on poverty is being | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
hosted by the Labour`controlled council in Reading, it points to | :11:14. | :11:18. | |
underlying reasons behind poverty in the town, such as reduced public | :11:19. | :11:23. | |
expenditure, welfare reforms and other issues which they will talk | :11:24. | :11:27. | |
about tonight. The idea is to come up with a strategy to help those | :11:28. | :11:34. | |
struggling to make ends meet. Catherine Cancer self lucky to have | :11:35. | :11:38. | |
a job she loves running a community craft project. A single mother, she | :11:39. | :11:43. | |
gets help with council tax but less than last year. She doesn't consider | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
herself poor but nothing in her budget can be taken for granted. You | :11:49. | :11:54. | |
are counting every penny. Every penny, every week, we work out what | :11:55. | :12:00. | |
we can spend and what it will go on. Do you see first hand there is real | :12:01. | :12:06. | |
poverty? Yes, real poverty in Reading. On Sunday, a lady ate with | :12:07. | :12:11. | |
me with her children. She had nothing in the house. Every week, | :12:12. | :12:16. | |
the food bank is helping a hundred of those most in need. | :12:17. | :12:23. | |
Representatives from here will be at the Council conference about | :12:24. | :12:27. | |
poverty. The council believes changes to benefit one reason why it | :12:28. | :12:32. | |
there is hardship across all age groups. Households with claimants | :12:33. | :12:36. | |
will lose an average of ?1600 a year by the time the welfare reforms are | :12:37. | :12:42. | |
bedded in. That is higher than the big cities. That is because Reading | :12:43. | :12:47. | |
will be badly hit by the housing benefit changes. Nobody disagrees | :12:48. | :12:51. | |
people should be helped into better paid jobs so they can be | :12:52. | :12:56. | |
self`sufficient. But there are still many people who cannot access better | :12:57. | :13:00. | |
paid jobs or who simply cannot work because they have an illness or | :13:01. | :13:06. | |
disability. I understand the squeeze but we have tried to do that by | :13:07. | :13:11. | |
freezing council tax and petrol duty and trying to make sure people are | :13:12. | :13:16. | |
able to live a pretty decent life despite the difficult times. Some | :13:17. | :13:21. | |
people questioned if a conference on poverty could change anything but | :13:22. | :13:25. | |
many agreed to the problem is real. A lots of people are struggling and | :13:26. | :13:30. | |
a few friends cannot make ends meet. It is tough. There is a lot of petty | :13:31. | :13:37. | |
and people do not know about it. Many people are quite proud so they | :13:38. | :13:41. | |
will not let people know they are struggling. So, will the conference | :13:42. | :13:47. | |
turn out to be more than a talking shop? Reading council is making | :13:48. | :13:53. | |
changes, solar panels on some houses and helping some people affected by | :13:54. | :13:58. | |
fuel poverty and signing up to the living wage and it wants others to | :13:59. | :14:03. | |
do the same. Business people and politicians tonight are being | :14:04. | :14:06. | |
invited to make pledges to fight poverty, many will be watching to | :14:07. | :14:13. | |
see the pledges ten into actions. The last of the protesters at an | :14:14. | :14:16. | |
anti`fracking camp in West Sussex have been evicted. There's been a | :14:17. | :14:20. | |
camp at the Cuadrilla test drilling site in Balcombe since August but | :14:21. | :14:23. | |
this morning bailiffs moved in to enforce an eviction order granted to | :14:24. | :14:26. | |
the County Council. Campaigners who had pitched their tents outside the | :14:27. | :14:29. | |
County Council offices in Chichester were also moved on. | :14:30. | :14:35. | |
Medical technology is constantly advancing and surgical robots are | :14:36. | :14:38. | |
increasingly being seen in operating theatres. The Royal Bournemouth | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
Hospital has just got a Da Vinci robot which will be used to treat | :14:43. | :14:46. | |
cancer. What's perhaps more unusual is that it's been funded through the | :14:47. | :14:49. | |
hospitals private work for the benefit of NHS patients. Laura Trant | :14:50. | :14:58. | |
reports. It has the mission of precision and | :14:59. | :15:02. | |
this robot is revolutionising cancer surgery. This machine can get into | :15:03. | :15:08. | |
parts of the body which are difficult to get to because of the | :15:09. | :15:11. | |
size of the camera, 12 millimetres and the instruments which are fine, | :15:12. | :15:15. | |
there's enough space to get all of that close to the site without the | :15:16. | :15:21. | |
surge in doing that. The dexterity means there are fewer side effects | :15:22. | :15:25. | |
are patients, no scarring and bruising. Philip returned to the | :15:26. | :15:32. | |
hospital where he had his surgery on his prostrate. The type of operation | :15:33. | :15:40. | |
I had needed precise work. It was a bit of trepidation but these guys | :15:41. | :15:45. | |
have done a fantastic job. The profits generated from private | :15:46. | :15:49. | |
practices are reinvested back into the NHS through a charity which was | :15:50. | :15:54. | |
specially set up and that is how the robot which cost ?1.5 million was | :15:55. | :15:59. | |
funded. Some other areas of the country already use these robots, | :16:00. | :16:03. | |
the Royal Berkshire Hospital have had one for the last few years, the | :16:04. | :16:07. | |
Queen Alexandra is raising money to fund its robot and they have until | :16:08. | :16:13. | |
April to make the first payment of half ?1 million. It is an expensive | :16:14. | :16:18. | |
piece of kit but experts say it saves costs in after`care. Here's | :16:19. | :16:24. | |
another high tech development ` Surrey County Council is using a | :16:25. | :16:27. | |
type of superglue for faster and cheaper road repairs. Instead of | :16:28. | :16:31. | |
patching over holes, the existing road surface can be mixed with the | :16:32. | :16:34. | |
glue additive and recycled to lay a stronger road. It's hoped it could | :16:35. | :16:37. | |
save councils and taxpayers millions of pounds. Lucinda Adam has been | :16:38. | :16:45. | |
finding out more. They are the bane of every driver is | :16:46. | :16:50. | |
life but potholes also cost the council millions in repairs and | :16:51. | :16:55. | |
compensation. In Surrey, a revolutionary new blue additive is | :16:56. | :16:59. | |
being used, mixed into the road services and they are recycling and | :17:00. | :17:06. | |
relaying from a new base. This road has got recycled existing | :17:07. | :17:11. | |
materials, fewer lorry movements, fewer materials need to be brought | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
in and taken off site and we get a better solution, quicker and | :17:17. | :17:21. | |
cheaper. By planning repairs over five years instead of one year, it | :17:22. | :17:25. | |
is estimated the technique could cost `` save ?2 million a year. This | :17:26. | :17:31. | |
system isn't about patching up potholes but resurfacing the whole | :17:32. | :17:35. | |
road so it is more resistant and it is guaranteed to last a 10`year. It | :17:36. | :17:42. | |
is a good idea and an outcome of the review back last year. It is a good | :17:43. | :17:47. | |
idea, there are many new techniques out there and the idea is to learn | :17:48. | :17:51. | |
from best practice and spread the ideas. Fixing with glue may sound | :17:52. | :17:55. | |
crazy but it should work and hopefully hold together. If you | :17:56. | :18:01. | |
potholes appear, it is the contractors and not the taxpayer who | :18:02. | :18:11. | |
picks up the bill. I was worried about superglue on roads! Stick with | :18:12. | :18:15. | |
it! Tony Husband is here, sharp like a | :18:16. | :18:21. | |
tack. All this week we're meeting the three finalists from the region. | :18:22. | :18:30. | |
It is the 10th year of the award. We look for people who have not had the | :18:31. | :18:36. | |
spotlight shone on them. But they have helped people in clubs. And | :18:37. | :18:42. | |
many of the Olympic stars as well. These people contribute a lot. The | :18:43. | :18:46. | |
finalists we will meet. The winner goes forward to the BBC Sports | :18:47. | :18:50. | |
personality of the year show which is being staged in Leeds. We start | :18:51. | :18:53. | |
tonight with Colin Williams from the heart of Portsmouth boxing club. | :18:54. | :18:56. | |
Colin was a boxer himself, overcame cancer and has devoted much of his | :18:57. | :18:59. | |
life to giving young people an opportunity in the sport. Rear hand | :19:00. | :19:10. | |
over the top. For 30 years, boxing has been Colin's life. He has gone | :19:11. | :19:17. | |
from a boxer himself to a coach. In and out of the ring, he has inspired | :19:18. | :19:28. | |
young people. This contribution is an important | :19:29. | :19:37. | |
envoy in the crowd. His dedication is in part his way of giving | :19:38. | :19:41. | |
something back to a community which helped him to serious illness. | :19:42. | :19:47. | |
Boxing clubs helped him when he was ill, to get money for with illness. | :19:48. | :19:52. | |
He think he owes back to boxing. He does that to helping kids like me. | :19:53. | :19:58. | |
He helped found a boxing club from humble beginnings to a regional | :19:59. | :20:04. | |
powerhouse. We just had three kids to start with, now we have 60. Colin | :20:05. | :20:11. | |
isn't just a coach, he has mentor to many children changing lives for the | :20:12. | :20:16. | |
better. You can take kids off the street with nothing, we make them | :20:17. | :20:20. | |
feel important and feel like somebody. Even though we try to | :20:21. | :20:29. | |
train in the gym, training a five or six enrolled if the same as a | :20:30. | :20:34. | |
champion. Just see the kids train and achieve things means everything | :20:35. | :20:41. | |
to me. Colin Williams and Stroh night we will meet another finalist | :20:42. | :20:47. | |
for this year. Conference North side Brackley Town caused a major upset | :20:48. | :20:51. | |
last night as they booked their place in the second round of the FA | :20:52. | :20:54. | |
Cup. Jon Brady's team beat League One Gillingham 1`nil in their first | :20:55. | :20:58. | |
round replay, to reach round two for the first time in their 123 year | :20:59. | :21:01. | |
history. They'll face Macclesfield in the next round. | :21:02. | :21:03. | |
Southampton midfielder Adam Lallana starts for England tonight against | :21:04. | :21:06. | |
Germany at Wembley with the words of skipper Steven Gerrard sure to | :21:07. | :21:09. | |
resonate. Gerrard says it's now or never for some players to impress | :21:10. | :21:12. | |
manager Roy Hodgson. England have only one more friendly scheduled | :21:13. | :21:16. | |
before the world cup squad is picked next year. Lallana starts tonight, | :21:17. | :21:19. | |
club mates Jay Rodriguez and Rickie Lambert are on the bench and will | :21:20. | :21:28. | |
hope to feature. Good luck to them. Surrey batsman | :21:29. | :21:31. | |
Kevin Pietersen has admitted he can come across as "arrogant" as he | :21:32. | :21:34. | |
approaches his 100th test for England Pietersen who played for | :21:35. | :21:37. | |
Hampshire before his move to the Oval was speaking ahead of the Ashes | :21:38. | :21:40. | |
series which starts in Australia on Thursday, or late tomorrow night UK | :21:41. | :21:43. | |
time. After an eventful career he's also aiming to feature in the 2015 | :21:44. | :21:51. | |
world cup. I can't help people thinking that I | :21:52. | :21:57. | |
am arrogant. A lot of great sportsmen have that bit of something | :21:58. | :22:01. | |
to them that makes them be the best and wake up every day wanting to | :22:02. | :22:06. | |
improve. I call it confidence, we all make mistakes in our lives. And | :22:07. | :22:12. | |
that is where you learn the most. If I had not learned, I would not be on | :22:13. | :22:18. | |
my hundredth test match. It starts in Brisbane. Radio at the ready. It | :22:19. | :22:25. | |
starts at 11:30pm. Randomly wake up in the night. | :22:26. | :22:30. | |
That is my winter. You will enjoy that. If you are a man of the cloth, | :22:31. | :22:38. | |
you believe in divine intervention. A vicar from West Sussex has been | :22:39. | :22:41. | |
praised for helping deliver his daughter's baby ` in a hospital car | :22:42. | :22:47. | |
park. The vicar has been praised for bringing his granddaughter into the | :22:48. | :22:50. | |
world after not making it in time to the maternity unit in Chichester. | :22:51. | :22:59. | |
Eric and Rachel travelled thousands of miles from Uganda say their | :23:00. | :23:03. | |
second Giles could be born in Sussex. In the end, they fell a few | :23:04. | :23:10. | |
yards short. On leaving the family home in Southbourne, it was apparent | :23:11. | :23:12. | |
things were going quicker than expected. Getting into the car, I | :23:13. | :23:19. | |
was needing to push and as soon as we reached, the baby came out very | :23:20. | :23:27. | |
quickly. It was great that dad was there and Eric to help. Clive | :23:28. | :23:33. | |
Jenkins is more used to christenings and birds. Quite surprised when I | :23:34. | :23:39. | |
went round to see a little head appearing and then great joy when | :23:40. | :23:44. | |
she came and popped out. Of everything that goes through your | :23:45. | :23:50. | |
mind, what do you do when the child cries, to start the breeding but | :23:51. | :23:54. | |
Lydia cried straightaway and I wrapped up in a towel and passed her | :23:55. | :23:59. | |
two month. Baby Lydia came into the world in the back of the family car | :24:00. | :24:04. | |
on double yellow lines outside the hospital. Staff were impressed with | :24:05. | :24:10. | |
the vicar. I believe he did very well. Rachel was grateful to her | :24:11. | :24:15. | |
father that everything went well and the staff, we are trained for that | :24:16. | :24:20. | |
eventuality but it doesn't happen very often. Amazing to think they | :24:21. | :24:24. | |
travelled from Uganda to be here for the birth for their second child and | :24:25. | :24:29. | |
we got so close but we were too far away. Rachel and Eric will return | :24:30. | :24:38. | |
home to Uganda in the New Year and have a baby sister and they will | :24:39. | :24:42. | |
make sure Clive is on hand again just in case. That baby does not | :24:43. | :24:53. | |
know what is going on. Congratulations to you all. On to | :24:54. | :24:57. | |
the weather. The weather has changed. It is getting bitterly | :24:58. | :25:03. | |
cold. Yes, we are looking at overnight frost, cold starts and | :25:04. | :25:06. | |
temperatures struggling. Frozen dew drops captured by Lucie Aggas in | :25:07. | :25:09. | |
Swanage in Dorset. Roy Venkatesh captured the sun rising at | :25:10. | :25:13. | |
Stonehenge on what was a cold crisp morning. | :25:14. | :25:14. | |
And vibrant colours on this Acer tree captured at Winkworth Arboretum | :25:15. | :25:24. | |
in Godalming by Raymond Slack. Lots of sunshine today but a cold and | :25:25. | :25:28. | |
frosty nights to come. The start of the night is cold and frosty with | :25:29. | :25:34. | |
increasing temperatures and cloud. Temperatures will recover but at | :25:35. | :25:38. | |
first they will fall away rapidly especially in the South East. We are | :25:39. | :25:46. | |
looking at Lowes of `1. In Oxfordshire and Berkshire, maybe | :25:47. | :25:51. | |
down to `3. A chilly and frosty start the sums right morning, | :25:52. | :25:55. | |
increasing cloud, the rain band moving in so fairly light and patchy | :25:56. | :26:00. | |
at first but increasing in intensity. The potential for wintry | :26:01. | :26:09. | |
showers, rain, sleet and hail. Temperatures up to six or 10 | :26:10. | :26:14. | |
Celsius. A brisk westerly wind on the south coast. The risk of wintry | :26:15. | :26:19. | |
showers tomorrow, drifting in from the north`west. A really strong | :26:20. | :26:22. | |
winds with rain, further showers, clear skies and the wind falling | :26:23. | :26:29. | |
light so temperatures falling away. The risk of wintry showers and | :26:30. | :26:34. | |
particularly the risk of ice in the east with temperatures falling away. | :26:35. | :26:41. | |
Warmer conditions further south and west. The rain will finally clear | :26:42. | :26:47. | |
Thursday morning, daytime, showers, high pressure building from the | :26:48. | :26:51. | |
Atlantic. More settled in the course of Thursday, the best of the | :26:52. | :26:56. | |
brightness in the West. The wind changes direction, coming in from | :26:57. | :27:00. | |
the North East, that will bring in more cloud for the East, the West is | :27:01. | :27:08. | |
best for sunny spells. The Outlook: A wet start to write, the rain it | :27:09. | :27:12. | |
could be heavy with thunder. The wind is brisk on the south coast, | :27:13. | :27:21. | |
some showers and a brisk north easterly winds. A decent day on | :27:22. | :27:27. | |
Friday at more cloud on Saturday. Wintry showers. A snowflake or hail. | :27:28. | :27:35. | |
I don't need my skis just yet. More later. Goodbye. Enjoy your | :27:36. | :27:43. | |
evening. Good night. Good night. | :27:44. | :27:47. |
