:00:00. > 3:59:59That is all from BBC News At Six, I will be back with more from

:00:00. > :00:07.Edinburgh Hello. I'm Sally Taylor. Welcome to

:00:08. > :00:11.South Today. In tonight's programme: It's had three heads in two years.

:00:12. > :00:15.A failing school on the Isle of Wight gets a warning from the

:00:16. > :00:21.Government. But can the new man turn it around?

:00:22. > :00:25.Why would I want to put my reputation on the line if I didn't

:00:26. > :00:29.think I could do it? But like all things, it is a challenge.

:00:30. > :00:32.Abusive comments. The family subjected to online trolling after

:00:33. > :00:37.losing a loved one at the Orchid care home. It is painful and

:00:38. > :00:41.hurtful, and it will never leave me. Welfare concerns. Could tough new

:00:42. > :00:44.laws prevent horses being dumped to fend for themselves?

:00:45. > :00:46.And on a roll. The Hampshire snowboarder with the Olympics in his

:00:47. > :01:04.sights. South Today can reveal the

:01:05. > :01:07.Government has reprimanded the company running a troubled school on

:01:08. > :01:16.the Isle of Wight, saying its performance has been unacceptable.

:01:17. > :01:18.Sandown Bay Academy, which was put into special measures in the spring,

:01:19. > :01:20.has had three headteachers in the last two years. It's one of more

:01:21. > :01:25.than 70 academies run by the Academies Enterprise Trust.

:01:26. > :01:28.Ministers have officially warned the Trust that further action would be

:01:29. > :01:32.taken if there weren't improvements. The Trust has had similar warnings

:01:33. > :01:35.for some of its other academies. We'll hear from the Trust in a

:01:36. > :01:46.moment. First, Briony Leyland reports from Sandown.

:01:47. > :01:52.Have a good evening. Work hard. He is a new face at the school gates,

:01:53. > :01:56.but he is an old hand at turning around struggling schools. He

:01:57. > :02:01.prefers to see himself as a catalyst for change. He was brought here from

:02:02. > :02:05.Manchester to be interim principal of what he believes can be a great

:02:06. > :02:11.school. You confident it can be done? No doubt about it. Why would I

:02:12. > :02:14.want to put my reputation on the line if I didn't think it could be

:02:15. > :02:20.done? But like all things, it is a challenge, and my job, working with

:02:21. > :02:25.the sponsor, is to identify the part which everybody plays in that

:02:26. > :02:29.process, and that is what I will do. As the holes in the door suggest,

:02:30. > :02:35.leaders have come and gone. Eric Jackson is the third head in the

:02:36. > :02:39.last two years. It has been a turbulent time for the school.

:02:40. > :02:45.Ofsted published an inspection report in March that put the school

:02:46. > :02:51.into special measures. The temporary principle was made permanent to

:02:52. > :02:56.oversee the improvement. The government issued a warning, and

:02:57. > :03:02.GCSE results improved in August, but they were still below that of the

:03:03. > :03:04.previous school. 11 days ago, Ofsted published its third report, saying

:03:05. > :03:10.the school was still in special measures. It emerged the principal

:03:11. > :03:15.had already been replaced by another interim appointment, Eric Jackson.

:03:16. > :03:19.He won't be staying long`term. He says he is here to restore pride and

:03:20. > :03:24.to pave the way for his successor. Parents at a forum last night

:03:25. > :03:29.welcomed his arrival. It has been positive, very transparent as to

:03:30. > :03:34.what will happen. No stone has been unturned, and I have come away

:03:35. > :03:39.reassured. The proof of the pudding is in the eating. It is not this

:03:40. > :03:44.meeting, it is the next meeting and the meeting after that to see how

:03:45. > :03:49.things improve. Sandown isn't the only school on the Isle of Wight to

:03:50. > :03:55.face criticism from Ofsted. Four of the six secondaries are either in

:03:56. > :04:00.special measures or failing. Ryder Academy is deemed to be inadequate.

:04:01. > :04:04.There may be problems among academies, but there are problems

:04:05. > :04:08.among all schools. What we have got to do on the island is get the

:04:09. > :04:13.Academy is right and the rest of the schools, which with the exception of

:04:14. > :04:18.one, I'm not good enough. At Sandown, Eric Jackson's promise is

:04:19. > :04:21.that he won't let down any pupil or parent, but as his time on the

:04:22. > :04:29.island begins, he knows building confidence in this school and others

:04:30. > :04:32.on the island is a huge task. Earlier, I spoke to David Fuller

:04:33. > :04:43.from the company that runs the school, AET, and I asked him what

:04:44. > :04:46.was going wrong. There are a number of challenges that we have faced

:04:47. > :04:50.over a period of time, and we have had to make some decisive decisions

:04:51. > :04:54.in the way to take it forward. That certainly since April, there have

:04:55. > :04:57.been some really encouraging signs, and improvement in terms of quality

:04:58. > :05:02.of teaching and the work that the staff are putting into the school,

:05:03. > :05:06.into the Academy, and also in terms of the results this summer, 6%

:05:07. > :05:12.higher than the previous summer, well above the national. And the

:05:13. > :05:15.A`level results were the best they have had, so some encouraging signs,

:05:16. > :05:20.but that is not to put aside the fact that there are a lot of

:05:21. > :05:27.challenges. There are, and I want to pick you up on a couple of things.

:05:28. > :05:32.You say that things are improving, but you are still in special

:05:33. > :05:38.measures. Nine months, and you haven't improved, and you say that

:05:39. > :05:42.the GCSEs and exams are up, but when it was Sandown school, it was doing

:05:43. > :05:47.better, it was when you took over that it started to fail. We are

:05:48. > :05:51.comparing different situations at that stage, and I am not get to sit

:05:52. > :05:55.and defend the fact that we did get a pre`warning letter, and we agree

:05:56. > :06:02.with the situation that it wasn't improving fast enough, and that is

:06:03. > :06:04.in terms of the Ofsted situation. There are definite signs of

:06:05. > :06:13.improvement, but the pace of change has not been where we wanted it to

:06:14. > :06:23.be, and in terms of the pre`warning letter, we have had a few of those,

:06:24. > :06:29.have had other schools. You have had five at the academies you have run.

:06:30. > :06:34.Is that not worrying? It is. So why are you getting so many of these

:06:35. > :06:40.warning letters? If we can put it into perspective, we have had five

:06:41. > :06:43.warning letters. We have nearly 80 academies across England, some of

:06:44. > :06:53.them in the most challenging areas of the country. We were encouraged

:06:54. > :06:58.by Michael Gove. Sandown was a challenging school. It was in a

:06:59. > :07:02.situation in the previous Ofsted framework where it got a certain

:07:03. > :07:06.grade, and we are in a different framework now. We are not happy and

:07:07. > :07:12.content with the rate of progress that it has made. So let me ask

:07:13. > :07:15.other half of the parents. You are asking them to trust you know,

:07:16. > :07:23.because they have nowhere to send their children. And it is a big ask.

:07:24. > :07:27.I am a father of five children myself, and education is vitally

:07:28. > :07:33.important. Parents want to make the right choices. I am confident now

:07:34. > :07:38.through the action that we have taken, and it is very decisive

:07:39. > :07:42.action, recognising the fact that the progress isn't as quick as we

:07:43. > :07:47.would like it to be, that we have taken the action and putting a very

:07:48. > :07:51.experienced person who we are absolutely confident has the

:07:52. > :07:54.abilities, the track record and the ability to be able to take this

:07:55. > :07:58.Academy forward at a greater pace than it has been improving of late.

:07:59. > :08:01.David Fuller, thank you very much for joining us.

:08:02. > :08:05.One of the first schools to open under England's free school

:08:06. > :08:09.programme is facing closure if it does not come up with a convincing

:08:10. > :08:12.improvement plan in the next two weeks. The Discovery New School in

:08:13. > :08:15.Crawley was put into special measures earlier this year, and in

:08:16. > :08:17.September it was judged not fit for purpose. The school says it's making

:08:18. > :08:24.every effort to address the issues. The daughter of a pensioner who died

:08:25. > :08:26.after suffering neglect at a West Sussex nursing home says abusive

:08:27. > :08:29.comments she's received from anonymous online bullies have added

:08:30. > :08:32.to her distress. 77`year`old Jean Halfpenny was one of 19 unexplained

:08:33. > :08:37.deaths among residents at the Orchid View home in Copthorne. Her

:08:38. > :08:41.daughter, Linzi Collings, says she's disgusted by online claims that she

:08:42. > :08:51.was to blame for her mother's death and trying to make money from it.

:08:52. > :08:54.Rebecca Williams reports. Neglected and mistreated, Jean died

:08:55. > :08:59.as result of the care she received at view nursing home. But her

:09:00. > :09:01.daughter Linzi Collings says that she has been targeted by online

:09:02. > :09:16.trolls. It is just ignorant, because until

:09:17. > :09:22.you are in that situation yourself, you cannot know what you would do.

:09:23. > :09:28.It just makes you angry, really, that someone has felt that they

:09:29. > :09:34.could comment on something they know nothing about. A coroner ruled that

:09:35. > :09:41.five elderly residents died as a result of the care they received in

:09:42. > :09:46.Copthorne. View nursing home has now opened with a different name under

:09:47. > :09:49.new management. The court heard that residents had been left out of reach

:09:50. > :09:57.of their call bells, on their own in bed for hours, sometimes with faeces

:09:58. > :10:02.on their hands. Sometimes they were repeatedly given the wrong

:10:03. > :10:07.medication. It completely took over every minute of our lives for a

:10:08. > :10:12.year, said to have someone just making glib comment like that is

:10:13. > :10:17.just not helpful. Cases of Internet abuse have risen dramatically in

:10:18. > :10:23.recent years. Nicola Brooks from Brighton became a target of hate

:10:24. > :10:30.mail after posting messages of support for the X factor star

:10:31. > :10:34.Frankie Cocos. You always get people who behave this way, because it is

:10:35. > :10:41.anonymous. They can hide behind their computer screens. They do it

:10:42. > :10:45.to get a reaction from people. Linzi says that the run`up to

:10:46. > :10:51.Christmas is a difficult time since her mother died, and messages like

:10:52. > :10:54.this make it harder. The head of finance at Surrey Police

:10:55. > :10:57.has been dismissed for gross misconduct. Paul Bundy was sacked

:10:58. > :11:00.after the force found he had mishandled internal information and

:11:01. > :11:02.failed to disclose a change in personal circumstances. Surrey

:11:03. > :11:05.Police say the misconduct wasn't related directly to the financial

:11:06. > :11:10.responsibilities that went with his job, and didn't involve leaks to the

:11:11. > :11:14.media. Stay with us. Still to come in this

:11:15. > :11:16.evening's South Today: breathtaking. The Southampton snowboarder on a

:11:17. > :11:27.roll for the Olympics. Figures released to the BBC show

:11:28. > :11:29.that, in one month alone, the South Western Ambulance Service which

:11:30. > :11:35.serves Wiltshire and Dorset raised concerns about families with young

:11:36. > :11:40.children about 80 times. In the majority of cases they were alarmed

:11:41. > :11:43.by parents drinking or taking drugs. It's left them worried about the

:11:44. > :11:47.ability of some adults to look after youngsters who've injured

:11:48. > :11:51.themselves. Children have died in some of the most serious cases seen

:11:52. > :11:59.in Dorset. Simon Clemison has this exclusive report.

:12:00. > :12:03.With a bottle or glass of something at home fast catching up on a night

:12:04. > :12:08.in the pub, this is a 19 you might recognise. But what if you are the

:12:09. > :12:11.parent of a young child who needs your help. One mother says she is

:12:12. > :12:17.never touching a drop of alcohol again. Telling a journalist her

:12:18. > :12:21.story directly was too much, but through e`mails, she has answered

:12:22. > :12:26.some of my questions. In one of the most extreme cases, she began

:12:27. > :12:30.drinking at lunchtime, and had eventually had 14 cans of cider,

:12:31. > :12:35.falling asleep on the sofa. Meanwhile, her baby had stopped

:12:36. > :12:39.breathing. When she was told he was dead, she said she couldn't stop

:12:40. > :12:43.crying and screaming, urging other parents not to end up empty and

:12:44. > :12:46.lost. She says she believed if she hadn't been drunk, she might have

:12:47. > :12:51.noticed her young son was not well, and might have been able to get help

:12:52. > :12:55.sooner. Alcohol will dull the senses, and you might miss things

:12:56. > :13:00.happening around you. The child might be doing their normal things,

:13:01. > :13:05.but the parent might not notice that they have had a fall, or wandered

:13:06. > :13:09.off out of the house. Figures I have been given showed that on 81

:13:10. > :13:14.occasions in June alone, paramedics raised concerns about families with

:13:15. > :13:17.young children, where in the majority of cases, parent in their

:13:18. > :13:22.view had had too much to drink or had taken drugs. In 46 of those

:13:23. > :13:28.cases, the youngsters were aged under five, and of those, 21 were

:13:29. > :13:31.less than one`year`old. They parents dialling 999 may not be able to

:13:32. > :13:38.follow instructions given over the phone. A nurse helping in the

:13:39. > :13:43.campaign says that she has seen 24 cases of a parent dying where a

:13:44. > :13:48.mother or father has been incapable. We are trying to make people think

:13:49. > :13:53.about the level of alcohol. One or two glasses might be OK, but if they

:13:54. > :13:59.are drinking the whole bottle or started drinking at lunchtime, that

:14:00. > :14:04.will have a cumulative effect on their ability to parent. Whether

:14:05. > :14:07.staying in stead of going out drinking makes someone a more

:14:08. > :14:11.responsible parent is now open to question.

:14:12. > :14:14.A trial has begun of a man accused of assisting an offender after a

:14:15. > :14:17.27`year` old father was stabbed at a party in Hampshire. Simon Warton

:14:18. > :14:21.died from his injuries in the Dove Close area of Waterlooville after a

:14:22. > :14:24.disturbance at a party in the early hours of April 12th last year. In

:14:25. > :14:28.December Sean Bailey was jailed for life for his murder. Today the jury

:14:29. > :14:31.at Winchester Crown Court heard how Cahill, who is charged with

:14:32. > :14:34.assisting an offender, hid Bailey in his flat and bought him food and

:14:35. > :14:37.clothing to avoid his arrest. Cahill denies the charge.

:14:38. > :14:44.It's a phrase you may not have heard before ` fly`grazing. That's when

:14:45. > :14:47.horses are dumped in fields without the landowner's permission and left

:14:48. > :14:51.to fend for themselves. And today it's been debated in Westminster. 46

:14:52. > :14:54.horses were rescued in Alton earlier this year. Now the RSPCA and the

:14:55. > :14:57.East Hampshire MP Damian Hinds are calling for tougher rules to allow

:14:58. > :15:09.localauthorities to remove fly`grazing horses. Caroline

:15:10. > :15:13.Richardson reports. Tinker and Murray were abandoned

:15:14. > :15:16.when they were far to young to fend for themselves. Murray was found

:15:17. > :15:19.tethered next to his mother who had died. Cally had been beaten. She was

:15:20. > :15:23.bald, riddled wtih lice and pregnant. She was rescued just in

:15:24. > :15:26.time and gave birth to a healthy foal at this RSPCA sanctuary in

:15:27. > :15:32.Surrey. We are finding large fields of horses that have been left

:15:33. > :15:37.fly`grazing and are not receiving proper care. The grass at this time

:15:38. > :15:42.of year doesn't have the nutrition in it, and they need supplementary

:15:43. > :15:46.feeding. Sometimes the field can have hazardous plants or bad fences.

:15:47. > :15:49.Two months ago, 46 horses were rescued from a field near Alton.

:15:50. > :15:53.Charities can only rescue animals which are seriously neglected. Local

:15:54. > :16:02.authorities lack the power to act swiftly before their welfare becomes

:16:03. > :16:08.a concern. Most importantly, I believe we need to make enforcement

:16:09. > :16:10.less odorous. That is the most critical immediate challenge,

:16:11. > :16:20.especially across`the`board in Wales.

:16:21. > :16:25.The RSPCA is currently caring for 1800 rescued horses. 600 of those

:16:26. > :16:29.are currently in private stables. The charity is fast running out of

:16:30. > :16:31.space and resources to care for any more. Caroline Richardson, BBC South

:16:32. > :16:34.Today, Chobham. After three days without gas, the

:16:35. > :16:37.Dorset village of Lytchett Matravers has now had its supply fully

:16:38. > :16:40.restored. More than 650 properties were affected when the gas pressure

:16:41. > :16:44.dropped on Sunday. Southern Gas Networks set up a help point in the

:16:45. > :16:45.village hall. Customers will get an automatic credit on their gas bill

:16:46. > :16:51.as compensation for loss of supply. Helicopter crews from the

:16:52. > :16:54.Portsmouth`based carrier HMS Illustrious are now flying sorties

:16:55. > :16:57.to identify which villages in the western Philippines are in most need

:16:58. > :17:01.of aid supplies. Some communities are still waiting for help to reach

:17:02. > :17:04.them more than a fortnight after they were battered by Typhoon

:17:05. > :17:07.Haiyan. It's also been an anxious wait here for families with

:17:08. > :17:10.relatives in some of the worst`hit areas. Jo Kent reports.

:17:11. > :17:16.Help arrives at last. A team of Royal Engineers from HMS Illustrious

:17:17. > :17:23.receive a hero's welcome. They've brought tools and materials needed

:17:24. > :17:28.to rebuild this destroyed school. There are two strands to what you

:17:29. > :17:32.can provide, the first being aided and food that can feed the

:17:33. > :17:36.population. The second is the rebuilding project, helping them get

:17:37. > :17:39.their fishing boats back, and so on. The plight of the island of

:17:40. > :17:41.Calagnaan was spotted yesterday on one of the ship's helicopter

:17:42. > :17:44.reconnaissance missions. HMS Illustrious has taken over from

:17:45. > :17:47.another Portsmouth`based ship, the destroyer HMS Daring, which was

:17:48. > :17:50.first to arrive in this remote area of the Western Phillippines. We have

:17:51. > :17:52.been able to really visit some of the outlying islands, the smaller

:17:53. > :17:55.communities, where some of the most needed things such as food and water

:17:56. > :17:58.have not been able to get through. As they fly over, the helicopter

:17:59. > :18:01.crews spot people on the ground. They've written signs pleading for

:18:02. > :18:07.help. In the coming days, the helicopters will return to

:18:08. > :18:10.distribute aid. There is always that doubt in the back of your mind, is

:18:11. > :18:20.there an eyelid that you have not touched upon? The eyelid communities

:18:21. > :18:23.are well structured and organised. The islanders do tend to tell us if

:18:24. > :18:25.there is a more deserving islands near them.

:18:26. > :18:28.Meanwhile, a family from the New Forest has had news of their

:18:29. > :18:31.relatives. This is all that is left of Sheila Fitzgerald's family home.

:18:32. > :18:33.Miraculously those sheltering there, her close family, all survived,

:18:34. > :18:38.although members of her extended family are now known to have died.

:18:39. > :18:41.The crew of HMS Illustrious will be here for at least three weeks,

:18:42. > :18:42.helping to rebuild homes and communities, hoping to restore some

:18:43. > :18:53.sense of normality. Six`year`old Sophie Rolf from

:18:54. > :18:56.Totland Bay on the Isle of Wight, who was diagnosed with an inoperable

:18:57. > :19:00.brain tumour last year, has died. Sophie and her parents appeared on

:19:01. > :19:03.South Today last month when a team from her KissyPuppy charity ran the

:19:04. > :19:07.Great South Run to raise funds for children's respite care on the

:19:08. > :19:09.island. Her father Aaron paid tribute, saying their "beautiful

:19:10. > :19:20.butterfly" had passed away. All our thoughts go to her parents

:19:21. > :19:28.on a very sad day. Portsmouth fans are gathering at

:19:29. > :19:31.Fratton Park tonight for a match against Southend. But it's the

:19:32. > :19:33.goings`on off the pitch which will dominate their conversation. As we

:19:34. > :19:38.reported last night, Guy Whittingham was sacked as manager yesterday

:19:39. > :19:41.afternoon. Despite the current run of four defeats, the move came as a

:19:42. > :19:45.surprise to many. Sean Killick joins us live from the ground. Sean, it a

:19:46. > :19:53.shock for everyone, including Guy Whittingham himself?

:19:54. > :19:56.Yes, and his replacement Andy Orford is currently behind closed doors

:19:57. > :20:01.here tonight preparing to take his first ever team talk as manager. It

:20:02. > :20:06.is not something he ever expected to do this evening. He was the club's

:20:07. > :20:11.academy manager, now he is the caretaker manager. He said it would

:20:12. > :20:18.be a proud moment to lead out the team, but not what he expected. He

:20:19. > :20:24.says his thoughts on Guy Whittingham will remain private, but the fans

:20:25. > :20:30.have been more outspoken. After a few dodgy results, wise decision.

:20:31. > :20:37.Losing four in a row, I don't think is right for the job. Very

:20:38. > :20:42.disappointed for Guy and his family. But I wish they would have given him

:20:43. > :20:49.longer. I'm joined now by chief executive Mark Catlin. This club is

:20:50. > :20:53.run by the fans for the fans, it is a cooperative, so is this typical of

:20:54. > :21:00.the fans' short`term knee jerk reaction? It was a considered

:21:01. > :21:05.business decision. Results and performances have not been up to the

:21:06. > :21:12.level that we expected. The decision was made by the board to dismiss

:21:13. > :21:16.Guy. He is a legend at the club and will continue to be one. Above all

:21:17. > :21:21.else, he is a great man, a fantastic coach, a good manager, but these

:21:22. > :21:25.things happen in football, and the board took the decision in the best

:21:26. > :21:28.interests of the football club. Victory tonight would have lifted

:21:29. > :21:33.the club to mid`table, so shouldn't he have been given more time? There

:21:34. > :21:41.is always that argument, but the tipping point is that we are nearer

:21:42. > :21:46.to relegation than the play`offs. Through his initial six or seven

:21:47. > :21:50.months of being in charge, the expectation levels rose, and it is

:21:51. > :21:53.sad, but there was a clear lack of confidence amongst the players for

:21:54. > :21:57.the last few games, and the board took the view that the only way of

:21:58. > :22:03.addressing that was to get a new manager in. Thank you very much.

:22:04. > :22:11.Kick`off has been delayed here this evening until 8pm due to an accident

:22:12. > :22:15.on the A3. Thank you very much. And the

:22:16. > :22:21.Portsmouth game is one of several fixtures for local teams tonight.

:22:22. > :22:26.The Winter Olympics in Russia is now under three months away, and one

:22:27. > :22:29.Southampton snowboarder has medals firmly in sight. Billy Morgan is one

:22:30. > :22:33.of the world's best slope`style snowboarders, and is thought to be

:22:34. > :22:40.one of the only people ever to pull off three mid`air flips. Tony

:22:41. > :22:41.Husband has been to meet him. Sometimes, sports men and women can

:22:42. > :23:01.do something very special. Billie Morgan's triple rodeo is the

:23:02. > :23:06.stuff of legend among snowboarders. This video has been viewed almost a

:23:07. > :23:15.million times on YouTube. From the slopes of Colorado two back home in

:23:16. > :23:19.Southampton, Billy has played the video over almost as many times.

:23:20. > :23:25.Massive butterflies in my stomach, but once I dropped in to do it, you

:23:26. > :23:31.don't have time to be scared. So it is mainly before the time most

:23:32. > :23:34.scared. Billy was one of the world's top snowboarders in a

:23:35. > :23:39.category known as slope style. He will make his debut if every. He is

:23:40. > :23:44.at that and skills learned as a childhood gymnast, and has always

:23:45. > :23:47.had a taste for extreme sports. When I went skiing at school, a friend

:23:48. > :23:52.said that we should try snowboarding. I reluctantly agreed,

:23:53. > :24:00.and then I absolutely loved it, and I was addicted to it. And here I am.

:24:01. > :24:08.This is one of the first places I started doing my 180s and 360s. The

:24:09. > :24:14.long road to the Olympics began here at the Southampton Alpine Centre.

:24:15. > :24:23.When he gets to the Aims, he will be a genuine medal contender. I am

:24:24. > :24:27.working on a few new triples. I am hoping it will go as well as it can,

:24:28. > :24:32.and I am proud to go, and if I can get on the podium, that will make it

:24:33. > :24:36.all the better. Billy is recovering from a knee injury, and will step up

:24:37. > :24:43.his training next month. He knows that success may depend on one

:24:44. > :24:48.crucial factor. It all depends on whether you land on your feet on the

:24:49. > :24:53.day, I think. Stay on your feet, and you could be an Olympic legend, too.

:24:54. > :25:02.A sort of grasp of breath in here when he does that. It is incredible.

:25:03. > :25:08.Billy, don't worry, I have plenty of ironing back home you can do. Good

:25:09. > :25:13.luck. Onto the weather. No snow here, she

:25:14. > :25:18.says hopefully? Thankfully not. But a little bit of

:25:19. > :25:21.a change. We are looking at some less cold air arriving. Dan Smith

:25:22. > :25:25.captured a mallard duck coming in to land in Petworth in West Sussex. Tim

:25:26. > :25:28.Balmer took this photo of a red squirrel in the sun on Brownsea

:25:29. > :25:30.Island. And Ginny Boxall captured her dog Lois taking in the warmth of

:25:31. > :25:43.the sun in Alton in Hampshire. We are looking at increasing cloud

:25:44. > :25:48.through the course of tonight. There could be some hill fog and mist in

:25:49. > :25:53.places. After midnight, we will start to see the rain arrive.

:25:54. > :25:59.Temperatures falling to around three Celsius. Definitely not as cold as

:26:00. > :26:06.last night, but feeling chilly in the rain and cloud. Behind, there

:26:07. > :26:10.may be some brighter conditions for areas such as Oxfordshire and

:26:11. > :26:13.Buckinghamshire. Elsewhere, still holding onto a lot of cloud, with

:26:14. > :26:22.temperatures reaching nine or 10 Celsius. Behind the rain, less cold

:26:23. > :26:25.than it has been. Tomorrow evening will see similar conditions,

:26:26. > :26:30.outbreaks of light and patchy rain. Hill fog is a possibility, as is

:26:31. > :26:38.missed. We hold on to the cloud, but less cold temperatures. A cloudy,

:26:39. > :26:42.murky, drizzly start to the day, and we hold onto those conditions for

:26:43. > :26:47.much of the day, despite high pressure being in charge of much of

:26:48. > :26:52.our weather. A cold front will move its way southwards across the

:26:53. > :26:56.country. A lot colder as we head towards the weekend, with a squeeze

:26:57. > :27:08.on the isobars. Through the rest of the week, we're all looking at the

:27:09. > :27:11.Outlook. Missed, hill fog. There could be some brightness for

:27:12. > :27:18.Northern areas tomorrow afternoon, and then on Thursday we hold onto

:27:19. > :27:21.the cloud and drizzle. The mild air disappears as we head towards the

:27:22. > :27:23.weekend, with the weather front moving through on Friday. Colder for

:27:24. > :27:32.the weekend with brisk winds. Be with us tomorrow night, because

:27:33. > :27:36.we have front row tickets for one of the most unusual locations for a

:27:37. > :27:40.play did you can imagine, a busy commuter Rahway Station, telling a

:27:41. > :27:43.wartime evacuation story. Be with us for that tomorrow night at 630. Good

:27:44. > :27:45.night.
