In tonight's programme... so it's goodbye from me. | :00:00. | :00:11. | |
Back home just days after a pioneering liver | :00:12. | :00:20. | |
Could these new advanced techniques help to | :00:21. | :00:22. | |
Patients suffer less. They do much better. | :00:23. | :00:29. | |
They suffer less complications. They go home much quicker. | :00:30. | :00:31. | |
The lottery of bird flu - some restrictions are eased for poultry | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
farmers whilst others continue to face strict guidelines | :00:35. | :00:36. | |
We're in Bermuda as they get ready to host the America's Cup UPSOF | :00:37. | :00:41. | |
And I'm in Southsea for a love tale with a difference. | :00:42. | :00:43. | |
About Rodney the shark who is going to travel | :00:44. | :00:45. | |
December was the worst month for A and E units in England | :00:46. | :01:03. | |
since the four-hour waiting target was introduced thirteen years ago. | :01:04. | :01:12. | |
Latest figures show only 86 per cent of patients were admitted, | :01:13. | :01:17. | |
transferred or discharged within that time | :01:18. | :01:22. | |
and there's suggestions it was even worse in January. | :01:23. | :01:25. | |
This evening on South Today, we're looking at what the NHS | :01:26. | :01:27. | |
is doing to tackle what's been described as a crisis. | :01:28. | :01:30. | |
A new way of doing liver operations that helps patients | :01:31. | :01:32. | |
recover more quickly, and frees up hospital beds | :01:33. | :01:34. | |
Today nearly a hundred specialists from around the world | :01:35. | :01:39. | |
And as our health correspondent David Fenton reports - | :01:40. | :01:44. | |
patients are already seeing the benefit. | :01:45. | :01:45. | |
Georgina Westwood had 60% of her liver removed | :01:46. | :01:47. | |
This is her just after she woke up from the 11 hour operation | :01:48. | :01:53. | |
I was told that they only ever do the liver with open surgery | :01:54. | :01:57. | |
but I was fortunate that I entered a trial which resulted in me | :01:58. | :02:01. | |
randomly being picked out for laparoscopic surgery. | :02:02. | :02:08. | |
That means keyhole surgery and it worked. | :02:09. | :02:13. | |
36 hours after the operation, Georgina left hospital. | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
Within a fortnight, she was looking after her granddaughter Maisie. | :02:18. | :02:22. | |
For my family, for myself and for the NHS. | :02:23. | :02:28. | |
Keyhole surgery is used for all sorts of procedures. | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
Most hospitals prefer open surgery for very big liver operations. | :02:33. | :02:55. | |
But today nearly 100 specialists from all over the world | :02:56. | :03:03. | |
at Southampton General where new keyhole techniques | :03:04. | :03:05. | |
Southampton has a unique position in that in this type of surgery, | :03:06. | :03:10. | |
so they have a lot of input and innovation into the procedure | :03:11. | :03:13. | |
among the European countries, as well. | :03:14. | :03:15. | |
Well, it's quite challenging but people are progressing and that's | :03:16. | :03:17. | |
why we have the conference over here to encourage people to get | :03:18. | :03:20. | |
Now the surgeon behind many of those innovations says more NHS | :03:21. | :03:27. | |
Our patients suffer less, they do much better, | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
they have less complications, they go home much quicker. | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
And I think that patients across all the UK should | :03:38. | :03:40. | |
have the possibility to have the same treatment | :03:41. | :03:44. | |
that we do in Southampton, instead of travelling down | :03:45. | :03:47. | |
Not everyone can have this type of surgery but, | :03:48. | :03:54. | |
three weeks on from her operation, Georgina's recovering well. | :03:55. | :03:57. | |
In Berkshire they're hoping prevention will be the cure to some | :03:58. | :04:06. | |
Trips and falls are one of the main reasons that older | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
people are hospitalised, so at a community centre | :04:11. | :04:12. | |
in Bracknell they're educating pensioners on the best way to stay | :04:13. | :04:14. | |
safe, as well as assessing those most at risk. | :04:15. | :04:17. | |
They say the NHS is from cradle to the grave and, in Bracknell, | :04:18. | :04:24. | |
in Berkshire, the focus is very much on all age groups. | :04:25. | :04:31. | |
It's best foot forward at the weekly Falls Free for Life programme | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
at the leisure centre, as the name suggests, | :04:35. | :04:42. | |
it's all about helping people avoid those nasty slips and trips that can | :04:43. | :04:45. | |
cost them not only their health but their independence. | :04:46. | :04:47. | |
Fell in the garden, hanging the washing out. | :04:48. | :04:49. | |
Yes. It was very scary. | :04:50. | :04:54. | |
The whole objective of what we're trying to do is to keep | :04:55. | :04:57. | |
people out of hospital, keep people happy, keep people | :04:58. | :04:59. | |
engaged in their own home and community for longer. | :05:00. | :05:01. | |
It is estimated that falls cost the NHS about ?2 billion per year | :05:02. | :05:04. | |
but, here in Bracknell, they're not only concerned | :05:05. | :05:06. | |
with prevention when it comes to the physical care of the elderly, | :05:07. | :05:09. | |
they're also concerned with the mental health of the young. | :05:10. | :05:18. | |
At this primary school a new lesson is on the timetable. | :05:19. | :05:21. | |
This week, leading children's charity Place To Be has said nearly | :05:22. | :05:34. | |
two thirds of children worry all the time about | :05:35. | :05:36. | |
Normally if you're feeling down it affects everything. | :05:37. | :05:39. | |
So it would affect your work as well. | :05:40. | :05:41. | |
All the time across our country, issue such as self harm, anxiety, | :05:42. | :05:44. | |
So, what we know from evidence is if we start the | :05:45. | :05:52. | |
conversation early we can get them to seek help when they need to. | :05:53. | :05:55. | |
So, not matter what age you are in Bracknell, | :05:56. | :06:03. | |
the message is for the NHS and the people it serves, | :06:04. | :06:05. | |
Our health correspondent, David Fenton is here with me now, | :06:06. | :06:15. | |
To innovative ideas, a positive approach. | :06:16. | :06:28. | |
We talk a lot about the NHS when things go wrong - | :06:29. | :06:30. | |
A problems, operations cancelled, not enough beds - but there is also | :06:31. | :06:33. | |
a lot that goes on behind the scenes to try and solve those problems. | :06:34. | :06:37. | |
That can be quite a high-tech sophisticated solution - | :06:38. | :06:39. | |
like surgeons using new keyhole techniques - or it can be a simple | :06:40. | :06:42. | |
thing like teaching people how not to fall over and hurt themselves. | :06:43. | :06:45. | |
They all usually have this in common - either keeping people out | :06:46. | :06:48. | |
of hospital in the first place, or getting them home | :06:49. | :06:50. | |
So Georgina liver patient went home day and a half after her op - | :06:51. | :06:55. | |
So that bed is then free for maybe five or six more patients. | :06:56. | :06:59. | |
Tomorrow those specialists we saw in Southampton drawing up | :07:00. | :07:01. | |
new guidelines mean more hospitals can do that. | :07:02. | :07:03. | |
A trial continued in Winchester today of a teenage father accused | :07:04. | :07:11. | |
of murdering his six week old daughter. | :07:12. | :07:12. | |
Joshua Martin, who now lives in Alton, denies | :07:13. | :07:14. | |
Today the baby's mother told the court she was afraid | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
She said Martin had been controlling during their relationship and made | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
violent threats when she tried to leave him. | :07:23. | :07:24. | |
There's a new case of Female Genital Mutilation or FGM | :07:25. | :07:33. | |
as it is known every 90 minutes in the UK. | :07:34. | :07:36. | |
That's according to the charity, Plan International UK. | :07:37. | :07:39. | |
It found that between April 2015 and March last year - | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
there were almost nine thousand times where women went | :07:44. | :07:46. | |
to the hospital or their GP with an FGM related concern. | :07:47. | :07:49. | |
That's the equivalent of one every hour, | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
It has been illegal to carry out FGM in the UK since 1985, | :07:54. | :07:56. | |
but there has not been a single successful prosecution. | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
Reading has been identified as an area where there is a high | :08:01. | :08:05. | |
and now the town is to get the first centre of its kind | :08:06. | :08:12. | |
The Rose Centre will bring together professionals to work | :08:13. | :08:15. | |
with communities where FGM is widely practiced, | :08:16. | :08:16. | |
I was at an age of 45 years old when my grandparents started speaking to | :08:17. | :08:34. | |
me about being cut. Jennifer comes from an influential east African | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
family but she only avoided female genital mutilation by running away | :08:39. | :08:44. | |
from home. The cutting tradition still casts a long shadow over her | :08:45. | :08:50. | |
and her mother. She says that her life has been ruined by me not | :08:51. | :08:55. | |
getting cut. She says she has received death threats, people have | :08:56. | :09:01. | |
tried to stow her car. People from her community. Sometimes she would | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
go back home to her family in the village and nobody would speak to | :09:06. | :09:12. | |
her. In 2014, Reading was declared one of 11 hotspots for FGM. More | :09:13. | :09:21. | |
than 40 cases have been uncovered in the town. Research suggests that the | :09:22. | :09:30. | |
actual figure is far higher. The row centre is the first of its kind | :09:31. | :09:34. | |
bringing together professionals and those groups where the practice | :09:35. | :09:40. | |
continues. The ultimate aim is to end FGM and community engagement is | :09:41. | :09:46. | |
the way forward. Jennifer now worries for her daughter as both mum | :09:47. | :09:52. | |
and dad are under pressure from her wider family. I can try and make | :09:53. | :09:58. | |
sure that my daughter doesn't go through this but if the father is | :09:59. | :10:03. | |
not with me, what stops him from coming home one day and I find he is | :10:04. | :10:07. | |
on the next plane home with my daughter. There is nothing I can do. | :10:08. | :10:13. | |
Large parts of the South have been identified as being at higher risk | :10:14. | :10:16. | |
for bird flu under new guidelines published by the Government today. | :10:17. | :10:19. | |
Restrictions on keeping poultry and other birds outside have been | :10:20. | :10:22. | |
in place since before Christmas after a number of cases of Avian flu | :10:23. | :10:25. | |
But farming leaders say the introduction of new "higher risk | :10:26. | :10:28. | |
areas" will mean free-range producers face major threats | :10:29. | :10:30. | |
It's been a tough few months for poultry farmers. Flocks have been | :10:31. | :10:43. | |
cooped up since December. In an effort to halt the spread of bird | :10:44. | :10:50. | |
flu by stopping contact with wild birds carrying the virus. From the | :10:51. | :10:54. | |
end of this month, flocks in low risk areas will be allowed outside | :10:55. | :11:06. | |
is with certain safeguards. It could mean that farms in high-risk areas | :11:07. | :11:15. | |
could lose a free range safeguards. We sell directly to the consumer and | :11:16. | :11:19. | |
we have a fantastic customer base who will be very supportive if we | :11:20. | :11:26. | |
have to rename our eggs as barn eggs. It's a lot more expensive to | :11:27. | :11:30. | |
run a free range poultry farm then it is for rearing Boban X. The NFU | :11:31. | :11:37. | |
says it will be a tough time for producers in high-risk areas. We are | :11:38. | :11:43. | |
very concerned about poultry farmers in high-risk areas. The outlook is | :11:44. | :11:59. | |
serious. We will be able to carry on our status as free range. The | :12:00. | :12:03. | |
chickens will be allowed out which is great news for them. One of the | :12:04. | :12:10. | |
eight confirmed cases of the flu in the UK was here at Abbotsbury indoor | :12:11. | :12:15. | |
set. All of the high-risk areas are on the coast or near inland lakes | :12:16. | :12:19. | |
and rivers Wye wildfowl have in large number. We've seen low | :12:20. | :12:29. | |
outbreaks in the areas that we have the proposing but still heightened | :12:30. | :12:40. | |
risk. The new regulations come into force on March one. | :12:41. | :12:50. | |
A reward is being offered to trace an iPod - | :12:51. | :12:52. | |
stolen from the daughter of firefighter Alan Bannon - | :12:53. | :12:54. | |
It once belonged to the 38-year-old - who was killed tackling a fire | :12:55. | :12:58. | |
The Fire Brigade Union is offering a thousand pounds for the safe | :12:59. | :13:02. | |
His daughter Abi who is now 11 years old - | :13:03. | :13:06. | |
had kept the ipod which contained all her father's favourite songs. | :13:07. | :13:15. | |
Say with us for the weather forcast. | :13:16. | :13:20. | |
After yesterday's political row over leaked texts Government ministers | :13:21. | :13:28. | |
have been insisting that Surrey County Council has not been | :13:29. | :13:31. | |
given a special deal to keep council tax low. | :13:32. | :13:33. | |
However, under questioning by Labour, The Leader of the House | :13:34. | :13:36. | |
of Commons did admit Surrey has asked to join a pilot scheme | :13:37. | :13:40. | |
to retain business rates a year earlier than other councils. | :13:41. | :13:44. | |
If there is no special deal for Surrey, why did | :13:45. | :13:47. | |
the Prime Minister simply not confirm this? | :13:48. | :13:50. | |
I, and other honourable members, want a memorandum of understanding | :13:51. | :13:53. | |
to secure our libraries and social care. | :13:54. | :13:56. | |
Surrey County Council has asked if it can participate in one | :13:57. | :14:03. | |
of the pilot project is for the proposed 100% | :14:04. | :14:07. | |
As any other local council will be free to apply, there is no | :14:08. | :14:15. | |
I'm sure we'll be hearing more of that in future. Now, all the sport. | :14:16. | :14:33. | |
We are going to hear from the chairman of Bournemouth. Is he | :14:34. | :14:36. | |
despondent at the moment given the poor recent run. Far from it. It has | :14:37. | :14:44. | |
been a tricky spell. They have had injuries, suspensions, didn't manage | :14:45. | :14:50. | |
to make signings but they are just looking over their shoulder. | :14:51. | :14:52. | |
It's probably the most trying spell of the fledgling Premier League | :14:53. | :14:55. | |
life of AFC Bournemouth, and their manager Eddie Howe. | :14:56. | :14:57. | |
Slipping down the table, the Cherries are battling | :14:58. | :14:59. | |
A lack of new signings in January didn't exactly rouse the mood. | :15:00. | :15:04. | |
South Today has spoken exclusively to Bournemouth chairman Jeff Mostyn, | :15:05. | :15:06. | |
as the club try to get the ball rolling back in | :15:07. | :15:09. | |
In a debut season in, arguably, the world's toughest league, | :15:10. | :15:19. | |
any team would be given time to settle in. | :15:20. | :15:21. | |
Second time around, with tens of millions | :15:22. | :15:31. | |
of pounds spent, the expectations at Bournemouth | :15:32. | :15:33. | |
It's been a very difficult and stressful January | :15:34. | :15:38. | |
You know, the performances have been disappointing, to say the least. | :15:39. | :15:42. | |
There's always a concern when you're not winning games. | :15:43. | :15:46. | |
It was not for the lack of trying, right up until | :15:47. | :15:49. | |
11 o'clock, on transfer deadline day, occasionally you have to spend | :15:50. | :15:54. | |
a little bit more than you budgeted for and we were always willing to do | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
that with the players that we wanted to bring in. | :15:59. | :16:00. | |
Some of the values were just crazy, as they always are | :16:01. | :16:07. | |
It's the worst market to deal in and, as Eddie has said, | :16:08. | :16:13. | |
publicly, it's in the public domain, it was probably the worst window | :16:14. | :16:16. | |
There's no sense that if you haven't got | :16:17. | :16:26. | |
recruitment department have failed in their duty. | :16:27. | :16:29. | |
We are more concerned than we were before Christmas. | :16:30. | :16:41. | |
Our goal has always been to retain our position | :16:42. | :16:44. | |
Would we be having this conversation now if we | :16:45. | :16:49. | |
haven't reached the dizzy heights of the top half of the table, | :16:50. | :16:53. | |
or would people have been satisfied that we | :16:54. | :16:55. | |
We still haven't identified an ideal sight but we have | :16:56. | :17:08. | |
identified three sites that have potential. | :17:09. | :17:10. | |
So, it's a very slow moving project but we're in talks | :17:11. | :17:13. | |
practically with the Council on a daily basis. | :17:14. | :17:26. | |
Eddie is our manager and he will continue to be our manager | :17:27. | :17:31. | |
We have an incredible relationship and you | :17:32. | :17:35. | |
will never get a person who is more level-headed. | :17:36. | :17:38. | |
He's more determined than ever ensure that this football | :17:39. | :17:41. | |
club retains its position at the very top level of football. | :17:42. | :17:53. | |
More of that interview on our Facebook page and on the BBC sport | :17:54. | :17:58. | |
website. Now for the last of our | :17:59. | :18:01. | |
features from Bermuda. Tony Husband has been three and half | :18:02. | :18:03. | |
thousand miles across the globe to visit the island that will stage | :18:04. | :18:06. | |
the America's Cup this summer. Sir Ben Ainslie's Land Rover BAR | :18:07. | :18:09. | |
will hope to become the first British team to win the trophy, | :18:10. | :18:12. | |
that was first contested Tonight Tony finds out how | :18:13. | :18:15. | |
the island is preparing and what conditions the sailors | :18:16. | :18:19. | |
will face. Bermuda is Britain's oldest colony | :18:20. | :18:34. | |
so it is fitting that Ben Ainslie is hoping to bring the Americas cup | :18:35. | :18:47. | |
home from these waters. Bermuda is 21.6 square miles. The population is | :18:48. | :18:54. | |
60 4000. Bermuda shorts borrowed from the British military. Though | :18:55. | :19:04. | |
neither was settled in 1609. It is the proverbial picture postcard | :19:05. | :19:10. | |
island. Britain's largest naval dockyard outside the UK was once | :19:11. | :19:15. | |
here. The America's Cup is big news for traders. It's is an absolute | :19:16. | :19:22. | |
need for Bermuda, a tremendous boost to our economic benefit and it's a | :19:23. | :19:29. | |
lot of fun. Memorabilia fills the rails across the stores in the | :19:30. | :19:32. | |
island. What today they think about the America's Cup? Just the | :19:33. | :19:37. | |
publicity alone is ideal for the island. On the one hand, I'm rooting | :19:38. | :19:44. | |
for Oracle because they've been here a while and are established in the | :19:45. | :19:49. | |
community. If they were to win the cup, they would stay which would be | :19:50. | :19:52. | |
good for the island. Generally, people are for BA are and Oracle on | :19:53. | :20:03. | |
the island. It is there that the boats competing for the America's | :20:04. | :20:06. | |
Cup will race off this summer. It forms a perfect the theatre. It's a | :20:07. | :20:17. | |
tricky place to sail. It's perfect for the flat water where we will be | :20:18. | :20:22. | |
racing but it is very landlocked so the wind is shifting. Thankfully, | :20:23. | :20:27. | |
I've got a bit of experience having sailed here a lot over the years but | :20:28. | :20:33. | |
we've got Giles Scott, our tactician on the boat who decides where we | :20:34. | :20:37. | |
will go on the course and you couldn't ask for anyone more | :20:38. | :20:42. | |
talented than Giles, having come out of Rio with a gold medal. Between | :20:43. | :20:50. | |
them, they have five gold medals. To have tactical racecourses brilliant | :20:51. | :21:00. | |
for our team. For the island of Bermuda, they are hoping that | :21:01. | :21:05. | |
staging the America's Cup is a major moment in history of their tourism | :21:06. | :21:10. | |
industry. The speed and lifestyle that comes with the America's Cup | :21:11. | :21:17. | |
ratings is right in our comfort zone for who we think we are going to be | :21:18. | :21:21. | |
going forward. Transport, infrastructure, everything you can | :21:22. | :21:26. | |
imagine, it's been a very delicate strategic project to get the balance | :21:27. | :21:33. | |
right. With the team Oracle being the home team, we will be cheering | :21:34. | :21:38. | |
loudest for them but the second team we are cheering for his Land Rover | :21:39. | :21:41. | |
BA are. We are partly British and we have a special place in the heart | :21:42. | :21:49. | |
for the British. Six Nations will begin qualifying here in May. Only | :21:50. | :21:53. | |
one will be left standing by the end of June. For this island in the | :21:54. | :21:59. | |
summer the number one aim is for everyone to have fun along the way. | :22:00. | :22:05. | |
One of the figureheads of British Sailing has announced | :22:06. | :22:08. | |
that he's to retire from his role later this year. | :22:09. | :22:11. | |
John Derbyshire OBE is to stand down as the Royal Yachting | :22:12. | :22:14. | |
Derbyshire's departure will follow that of Olympic | :22:15. | :22:20. | |
manager Stephen Park, who is also leaving this spring | :22:21. | :22:22. | |
A couple of things to deal with. Tony didn't get his legs out. Note | :22:23. | :22:38. | |
Bermuda shorts. And he didn't bring as anything back. Not even a bag of | :22:39. | :22:48. | |
sweets. I gave him a cold to go with so I didn't anything to come back. | :22:49. | :22:51. | |
We're just a few days away from Valentine's day - | :22:52. | :22:54. | |
and there's one couple who'll be spending February the 14th together, | :22:55. | :22:56. | |
that's despite the fact they haven't met yet! | :22:57. | :22:59. | |
We're talking about a pair of sharks. | :23:00. | :23:06. | |
Rodney the zebra shark is being transported | :23:07. | :23:09. | |
from his current home at the Blue Reef Aquarium | :23:10. | :23:12. | |
in Southsea to a larger tank in Cheshire but luckily Rodney | :23:13. | :23:14. | |
won't be lonely when he gets there The plan is to | :23:15. | :23:17. | |
For a shark it's not easy making friends, there's always the | :23:18. | :23:32. | |
temptation to eat them. Four Rodney it's even harder. He has no mate but | :23:33. | :23:37. | |
now love is in the air, or rather the water. This lovely lady is dotty | :23:38. | :23:49. | |
and hopefully for Rodney by nature as well as name. We are giving him | :23:50. | :23:58. | |
to an aquarium and we raised her as a little baby so it was always going | :23:59. | :24:03. | |
to be the case that they would meet. We have our fingers crossed that it | :24:04. | :24:07. | |
is going to be successful. This is Rodney as a baby, strikingly | :24:08. | :24:14. | |
different markings giving this PC is name of the zebra shark. He is | :24:15. | :24:18. | |
currently getting extra rations to give him energy for the journey | :24:19. | :24:24. | |
north. He will travel up to Cheshire on Monday, in time for Valentine's | :24:25. | :24:30. | |
Day on Tuesday. He is going to stay up in Cheshire, hopefully for many | :24:31. | :24:35. | |
happy years ahead. Hopefully for this pair of sharks, it will be love | :24:36. | :24:44. | |
at first bite. A lot of expectation there. Frightening. They should be | :24:45. | :24:52. | |
more laid-back. Too much pressure. Onto the weather. Wrap up warm is | :24:53. | :24:58. | |
the answer. You will need all the layers. This wind from the east is | :24:59. | :25:04. | |
going to make it feel bitterly cold. Let's look at your lovely weather | :25:05. | :25:05. | |
pictures. Shazz Hooper captured | :25:06. | :25:09. | |
the cloudy skies over the River Frome in Wareham Nick | :25:10. | :25:11. | |
Keown photographed the cloudy skies And Sarah Dawson took this picture | :25:12. | :25:13. | |
of starling murmuration at Studland. You can see all of our pictures on | :25:14. | :25:28. | |
the Facebook page. Tonight, we expect wintry flurries or even a | :25:29. | :25:34. | |
dusting of snow. More likely for Eastern counties. Elsewhere, mainly | :25:35. | :25:40. | |
dry, Frost can't be ruled out. In towns and cities temperatures will | :25:41. | :25:46. | |
fall to freezing. So, a cold and frosty start tomorrow. Wintry | :25:47. | :25:51. | |
showers will continue. With a strengthening east to north-easterly | :25:52. | :25:55. | |
wind, further showers will roll in from the North Sea. Temperatures | :25:56. | :25:59. | |
will reach a high of four Celsius but with wind chill it will feel a | :26:00. | :26:06. | |
lot colder. Wind coming in from the north-east staying with us through | :26:07. | :26:09. | |
tomorrow night and there will be further wintry showers. More | :26:10. | :26:14. | |
frequent during the early hours of Saturday morning. More likely | :26:15. | :26:21. | |
further east. Temperatures down to freezing and possibly -2 in the | :26:22. | :26:25. | |
countryside. Saturday is another cold day with that wind chill. Still | :26:26. | :26:32. | |
the risk of wintry showers brought in on this north-easterly wind. | :26:33. | :26:37. | |
Showers will drift westward with the strengthening wind. Limiting the | :26:38. | :26:43. | |
brightness for the next few days. Possibly one or two spells tomorrow | :26:44. | :26:49. | |
afternoon. For the next few days, some wintry showers at times and it | :26:50. | :26:55. | |
will feel colder. It will be stronger than recent days, | :26:56. | :27:04. | |
temperatures starting to climb with the start of next week. Temperatures | :27:05. | :27:13. | |
made next week to rise into double figures in some places. With high | :27:14. | :27:18. | |
pressure not far away it should stay mainly settled. I love the optimism. | :27:19. | :27:31. | |
It's still very cold. Spare a thought for the headteacher sleeping | :27:32. | :27:35. | |
in a tent behind his school. We will find out tomorrow why he is doing | :27:36. | :27:41. | |
it. That's it for tomorrow. This evening bulletins later. | :27:42. | :27:46. |
